sites, quoted above, this colloquy and control of these important adjuncts to the public fisheries.
 Trap Sites Under the Acts of
 1924 and 1926
 After a careful examination of the language giving power to the Secretary of Commerce to control the fisheries of Alaska, contained in Section One of the Acts of June 6, 1924, and June 18,1926, it is my judgement that if the Secretary should, by rules and regulations, provide for giv- ing trap fishermen an exclusive license to construct and main tain fish traps on then long used sites, the courts might sustain his power and authority to do so,
 Such a trap and trap site would not constitute the grant of ar exclusive or several right os fishery" for the law recognizes them as legal fishing gear, and if it should be so held all trap1 would now be barred from fish, ing, for they constitute an ex- elusive right in the area occupied by them. No court has yet held the Secretary may thus control trap sites, and no attempt has yet been made by the Secretary to exercise that power, but con- ditions may reach the point where he will do so, In my judg- ment the bill under consideration is much more favorable to the public interest and to the private interests of Alaskans than the exercise of such unlimited power bv the Secretary of Commerce.

 PRESIDENT IN VIEW OF
 HIS POWERS TO RESERVE PUBLIC LANDS, MAY, TO CARRY OUT THE PURPOSE
 OF AN ACT OF CONGRESS
 RESERVE SUCH WATERS"
 In other words, if it seems ne- cessary to carry out the pur- poses of the Acts of Congress of June 6, 1924 and June 18, 1926, the President may reserve all the trap sites in Alaska, and place them under the management and control of the Secretary of Commerce. And if the President should reserve such sites and the traps and fish caught thereon would not be subject to taxation or any levy of license tax or other control by the Territory of Alas ka.

 In short it will be dangerous to the public interests and to Alaska fishermen, If the trap sites shall be reserved by the Rules and Regulations of the Secretary of Commerce under Acts of 1924 and 1926 or by an executive order by the resident of the United States. If reserv- ed in either way they may be- come thereby, instrumentalities of the United States. and not subject to taxation in any form by the Territory. The only safe and certain way for the Terri tory or it's people to have any interest in them, subject to tax ation, is by the enactment of the bill under consideration in some form.

his head completely, cleared his
throat.
Il" he said in confusion.
But I didn't hear you'll"
Pleasantly she repeated her ques-
ton.
THE processes by which men fell
Il in love with her were familiar
to Patricia Chesebrough. She knew
that by this time Dan was acutely
wretched in her company, and yet
never for one moment happy when
out of her sight.
His manner was unnatural when
he spoke to her, his voice thick and
strained. The simplest greeting as
he passed her on the stairway of
his own mouse would make him
break into violent perspiration; he
felt himself laundering yokel
when she turned upon him her
amused and family questioning
smile. He speculated about her in
cessantly in his own thoughts.
Dan had been taught from baby
hood that his money was invincible,
his passport to whatever he desired
in life. But college and the hu-
initiating experience of the last year
or two in Deerbridge had taught
him better.
He had taken refuge in tragga-
docio, he had staggered and blus-
tered, tipping extravagantly, indulg-
ing in all sorts of display and osten-
tation and noisily assuring his own
set that he thought Deerbridge a
joke; it was a jay town full of bluff
ferS and snobs.
His friends were chiefly found in
young married set, loud-voiced
young women who could run their
cars, dance all night, drink like men
and play good game of poker.
They had a great many jokes and
spent a great deal of money, but
they were not the sort of women
with whom Dan wished to see his
sister intimate nor the sort of jokes
he would have cared to have her
hear.
Hence the summons to Patricia,
the unknown woman whom he had
characterized as a snob and toady
before he saw her Since that mo-
ment his life had been completely
upset.
1T had taken him only week or
l. ten days to recognize the emo
lions that were tearing at his heart,
and in a great hour of shame and
protest and joy and terror he had
acknowledged to himself that he
loved her.
Although he did not know it, there
was a real barrier between them
in the engagement that had tied
her for years; he imagined a thou
sand barriers that did not exist. He
imagined that she deSpised him,
that she told her friends about him
with unkind laughter.
The chair she had occupied in his
mothers sitting room had become
a sacred chair; the women down
town who CHANGED to have smoky,
dark hair trinity yelled he followed
with his heartsick stare. A hun

ened in him, he changed, his man.

He wished that he might be granted the
brief respite of Inconsistencies before the
final plunge of the keen blade-and then there
was a frightful roar that sounded almost in
his ears The high priesteSs lowered her dag
ger Her eyes went wide with horror. The
priestesses screamed and fed madly toward
the exits The priests rosred out their rage
and terror according to the temper Of their
courage. They fed in frenzy.
