Alaskans should be given pre- ference in employment in Alaska. Commissioner of Education w. K. Keller, long an Alaskan and now candidate for reelection, believes this. He not only believes it, but he practices it.
 During his long service in the Alaska schools, he has given pre- ference in employment to Alaska teachers. His first act, after as- suming his office, was to reques the school boards to follow thi' procedure. His recommendation wa effective, with the result that tn, l Alaska schools employ more Alas kans and fewer "ChechakoS" thai

.1 W WHITE C OHOE
 GETS ATTENTION AT KETCHlkAh
Hundreds of Species Re ceived Here from
 School at Chilkat

Presence of a single white cohoe salmon in fish catch delivered at Ketchikan occasioned so much interest there that the news was s.nt to the New York Times and printed in the issue of that paper of September 1.
 H.. c. Nunan, Manager Of the New England Fish Company at Ketchikan, said that he had seen not more than 50 of these fish dur ing 20 years of operations on this coast. John E. Berg of the Marlyn Fish Company of Katchikan said he had seen very few in "A years experience.
 Regarded as Freak Fish The white cohoe is a freak fish and there is no accounting for its origin, but it's presence among red cohoe catches landed at Juneau is not of such rare occurrence as al Ketchikan.
 Probably 500 white echoes were received by the Juneau Cold Stor' age Company last year" said Wal lis s. Gsorge, President and Man ager. We packed them with tht red echoes. Last spring a Londof dealer wrote us objecting to tht presence of the white fish in hi red cohoe pack, so this year we die not pack any white echoes. Quit a few were brought in with rec echoes.
 School Near Chilkat River
 There seems to be school O l white echoes every season near th' l Chilkat River near Haines. Fron there, they scatter during the sea son to other waters.
 "The white appears to be a tru cohoe in everything but color"
