LACK OF HERRING
 FOR BAIT CAUSES
 MAYOR, WIRE BELL

At the request of the halibut fishermen, Mayor I. Goldstein wired this morning to United States Commissioner Frank T. Bell at Ketchikan asking that Port Fred1 erick, ordinarily closed to herring fishing, be opened for the purpose of catching herring to be used as bait by the halibuters, as that is the only locality in this vicinity where herring are to be found at the present time.
 If Port Frederick cannot be opened for the purpose of catching herring for bait, the halfbut fisher men will be greatly handicapped and may have to tie up for the present, according to Mayor Gold stein.
 MT. Bell told me to wire him at any time if q thought it necessary for the interests of the fishing in dustry, and I am taking advantage of his offer Mayor Goldstein de- clared.
