IeSIQenC WnICc CfOIlerS dnu ScAHc men. You know these resident fishermen have ben entirely SUD- planted by outside fishermen from Puget Sound, the Columbia River and California, who come into Alaska waters for the brief season and then return to their own fishing grounds in Wash ington, Oregon and California for the remainder of the year. You know that the Alaska fish cries are controlled and worked exclusively by these explOiters while your resident people stand ,dly by unable to secure employ
 mant. You know that these starving and helpless resident fishermen in Southeastern Alas ka have been forced to appeal to a young Indian lawyer for help, while the business men of Alas ka looked on and refused to as sist them. You know that later even the white resident trOllers and fishermen have been Oblig- cd to look to this same Indian leader for protection. You know know that he has fought a long and losing fight for their right 10 fish in their home waters, against odds which no white lawyer had the courage or the capacity to battle. You know i!1at these Alaska Indian fisher men, out of their meager wages, established newspaper, for publicity, and that the white business men of Southeastern Alaska refused to subscribe to or to advertise in its pages. You know of the heroic struggle these Indians have made for the protection of their right to fish freely in the waters of Alaska and how they and the white fShcrmen have been crushed while cOurageOusly fighting for food for their families. You know that all these resident Alaska fishermen were once your good customers and their wages assisted you in building the First City of Alaska. You lnOw that the wrongs heaped on them have now become wrong to you and your business i'll tnIS C1Cy.
 "And, now, what have you business men of Southeastern Alaska done to assist these resi- dent fishermen-yOur friends and custOmers-in their strug- gle to save the Alaska fisheries for the support of resident pO- puiation of Alaska fishermen? Nothing! You have refused them sympathy and assistance during the years they have fought to save your business. You have neglected to assist these. men-yOur customers
