Why?--Editor
 1 Four months operation of the rev bleached sulphite pulp mill erected by the Weyerhasuser Timber Company, Longview, Wash, to utilize it's many hun oredS of millions of feet Of western hemlock timber in Southwest Washington, has ap- Irarently convinced the company of the soundness of it's venture
 Breaking a new trail in the comparatively new field of pulp and paper manufacture in the Pacific Northwest, the Weyer- hasuser Company late last Ne vember began the manufacture of superior grade of chemical wood pulp from western hem, lock to compete with the best this, and several foreign coun- tries, have to offer the paper trade. The experiment has prov ed itself eminently successful Recent reports indicate paper manufacturers the majority Of them in states bordering the Great Lakes and in New Eng land, have enthusiastically ac- cepted the western product for manufacture into innumerable varieties of high grade paper By it's operations the Weyer- haeuser Company is proving that the Pacific Northwest need stand second to no other section in pulp and paper manufacture and by the prediction of Robert R. Wolfe, manager of this pulp plant, it will reach first rank. In a recent address before the Iongview Chamber of Com merce membership, MT. Wolfe declared that Longview might well expect to be the pulp man ufacturing center of the world if ideals being sought and in fair way of accomplishment are real ized. Wolfe is also known to be more than mildly interested in chemical by-products industries to utilize the residue remaining after the hemlock flores are ex- tracted for pulp.
 Vast Heml0ck Stands
 The answer to the meaning of this proven value and accepta- bility of western hemlock wood pulp and the practicability of manufacturing it on the coast for eastern paper makers lies in a survey of the vast stands of hemlock available throughout the Pacific Northwest. Cowlitz County has some two billion and a quarter feet.
 Longview with the thriving Weyerhaeuser mill in addition to two paper plants, is very de- finitely feeling the beneficial ef- fects of this new trend in hem lcck utilization and holds little doubt but what greater forward steps are soon to be taken by other industries.
 This initial venture of the Weyerhaeuser Company was more than just another welcome industry. 1t was a development that drew the attention of tl.e pulp and paper industry of the nation and of several foreign manufacturers who have been importing large quantities of high grade pulp with which the western plant is now competing.
 The Weyerhaeuser "experi ment," which signifies so much for Longview and the Northwest, was established as a full sized

Miss Lottie Stevedson was


 passenger south on the Admiral Rogers, Wednesday, enroute to Rochester, Minnesota where she will go before the Mayof Broth CTS for thorough health ex- animation. She plans to return to Sheldon Jackson School Sitka about the first of Septem- Der.
 Alfred Widmark has been taken on the faculty force ot Sheldon Jackson School. He will teach several classes during the school year and next year will be assistant engineer on the school staff. Alfred is taking the pre- e-medical course at Oregon State College. Depression" has it's effect on education as on everything else so he dropped out for the time being.
 Of much interest on the Cam pus of Sheldon Jackson School was the announcement of the , engagement of Miss Hannah F Richmond and MT. Holden Le- Roy. Miss Richmond is teacher of the 7th and 9th grades and MT. LeRoy is in charge of the print shop. Both are fine teach CTS with many friends. Wedding date announced for early next August-both will continue teaching next year.
 From the land of the Chill kats comes the following: It won't be long now-all that remains of five feet of snow is a little wet spot down on Main Street. Warm sunny days will bring out the oranges, lemons and all the nice fruits for which Haines is famous.
 Things at the High School are just grand now-Mrs. Bradbury, wife of the Principal, the Big Shot, arrived in Haines after a long trip from Kansas City, Mo. MT. Bradbury is about the most envied man about here now.
 James Gibson has been visit ing here with his sister Mrs. J. W. Brown. Jim has duties to perform at Skagway the capital of Lynn Canal hence returned home.
 A smoker was pulled off by the Doughboys on the End. A group of Skagwayans were down to see the go and Haines was we'll re- presented. The set to's were four rounds each as follows: Aranda vs Gigilio, 120 lbs; Moul- ton vs Yarberry, 14Otbs; Epps vs Shaffer, 140tbs; Burton vs Koutz 140tbs; Schall vs Abbot, 170tbs.
 The bouts were snappy with plenty of punch back of some, rot so much behind others. Ar anda took decision in the first bout in a manner that was pleasing to all.
 Moulton was a better sport than boxer so he took the de- ciSiOn on the chin.
 Grit won out in the third be- tween Shaffer and Epps. Shaffer had the fight right up to the knockout but was on the wrong end of the knockout. After de- corating the arena with the blood of his youth, Epps was on the fade with plenty of punish ment coming his way. With a last rally he pushed a fast one against Shaffer's chin-the rest was easy-bells for Shaffer.
 The main event between Bur ton and Koutz was too short to be fun. Koutz got in a lucky one before the gong sounded in the first round. The bell stopped the count. Burton was unable to continue the second round so the referee stopped the fight and handed Koutz the tin cross to wear.
 Abbot and Schall put on a rough sort of a melee with Ab- bot having the fight right up to the knockout-but he took the knockout. All the boys were game-a good time was had by ell.

and we know all the rest Of the packers are of the same opinion
 Longer Closed Season
 eIto would be much more profit able to the producers to have the closed season start November Is and extend to March 15. This would instil1 new confidence into all haliblt packers and encourage them to buy more halibut for freezing purposes, which would in turn ere i. ate much healthier prices on hali- but both for fresh use and for halibut to be frozen on the Coast.
 Since we are quite confident that the halibut producers would be quick to see the logical truth of the situation as we have outlined it, we strongly urge this matter be taken up by the Fishing Vessel Owners Association and the Fish ermen's Union, as yZll as all the producers of halibut. They should consider the advisability of having a four months closed season on fresh halibut fishing.
 Our buying of halibut for freez- ing this season will depend entirely upon how long the fresh halibut season will be closed, and we posi- lively must have assurance that the season will be closed as outlined in this letter. if we are to invest money in frozen halibut'

NATIONS FIRST TRIP OF HALIDUT IS LANDED HERE
Ten and Five Cents Paid by Cold Storage for
 l,200 Pounds

What is believed to be the first trip of halibut landed anywhere in the United States or Canada this season was lifted upon the dock of the Juneau Cold Storage Company this morning from the schooner Tongass, Capt Nels Stangvik, of Seattle. The fish totaled 1900 pounds and was bought by Wallis s. George, President and Manager of the Cold Storage, for 10 cents a pound, first grade. and 5 cents pound, second grade.
 The Tongass is a Seattle boat. She put into this port with her small catch because she had to stop fishing on account of machin- cry trouble.
 Made Only One Cast
 After midnight Monday night, on the banks off Cape Spencer, she put out 16 skates of gear, and im- after making the cast her | machinery defect developed. She immediately hauled in her fish lines and started for Juneau.
 The catch was bought by MT. George for the local trade. None of the fish will be kept for ship ment on Saturdays southbound steamship, as halibut boats of the Juneau fleet are expected to be here Saturday morning with their catches.
 Not Accurate Indication
 The prices of 10 and 5 cents paid for the Tongass trip is not an &C., curate indication of the prices that will obtain Saturday when larger quantities are offered for shipment to the States.
 Last year opening prices on first trip halibut landed at Juneau were 13 and g. Then, virtually all craft in Seattle, Prince Rupert and Ketchikan were on strike and the Juneau catch was bought on the understanding that it would find Q ready market in Seattle.
 A year ago the fish market in the States was better than it is now.
 The Harding, Capt. Martin Er- stad, took bait and ice today and left for the banks.
