AMBITIOUS PLAN |IS MADE KNOWN. BY C0M'R. BELL
Commissioner of Fisheries
 Makes Public Aims of
 Aiding Industry
WOULD BOOST BOTH WAGES AND PRICES
Seeks Stabilization of In-
 dustry and Perpetua-
 ton of Fish Supply

An ambitious four fold program
 aimed at promoting the welfare of
 workers in the salmon canning in
 dustry, improvement of the indus try itself, stabilization of output to demand and conservation of the
 salmon fishery, was revealed here today by Frank T. Bell, United
 States Commissioner of Fisheries in an interview given The Empire. The Commissioner arrived last
 night on the motorship Brant and
 was scheduled to sail late this aft ernoon or early tonight for Seward direct. He postponed his scheduled hearing here next Friday until his
 return not later than August
 when he expects to spend some time in this city.
 Faces First Fight
 The Commissioner change in program was occasioned by the necessity to appear in the Federal
 district court at Seward next Sat- urday and fight petition filed by P. E. Harris & Company for an injunction to prevent him from enforcing an order issued several
 weeks ago closing the company's best fish trap in the False Pass region. Affirming that the closure
 was justified by existing conditions, the Commissioner said he would resist to the utmost the efforts to
 nullify the order.
 In order to appear personally at the hearing and aid the United States Attorney in combating the petition, he has postponed the
 hearing here and those scheduled at Yakutat and Cordova until his return trip. He remained in port today for a short conference with Gov. John w. Troy, then sailed for Seward.
 Statement of Policy
 of course, the regulations an-
 nounced last winter for the cur rent season will stand, unless it is found that some serious injustice is being done by them when neces- sary corrections will be made" MT. Bell said. The industry had made it's plans for the season, based on the original regulations, in good faith and it would be unfair to them to make any material chang

ALEXANDER NOT CONF IRMED FOR DISTRICT COURT
Dim ond Blocks Oregon Man s Confirmation : First Report in Error

The confirmation of George F Alexander for United States Dis trict Judge in the First Division of Alaska today was said to be blocked in the Senate Judiciary Committee, in an Associated Press dispatch from Washington to The Empire. This came as a surprise locally as a dispatch received from the National capital yesterday said he and all other Alaska appointees had been confirmed by the Senate last Saturday night.
 This evidently was erroneous and probably caused by confusion that existed in the Senate Saturday night when efforts were made to clean up the calendar and adjourn sine die.
 The Associated Press report re- ceived today said:
 The nomination of George F. Alexander, Portland, Oregon, attor- ney, as United States District Judge for Division One, Alaska is still in the Senate Judiciary Committee. Indications were that he will no. be confirmed before the adjourn ment of Congress. It is understood that opposition developed to the appointment from Delegate An- thony J. Dimond and several Sem ators on the committee

STREAM GUARDS WILL BE HIRED HERE AS USUAL
New Alaska Fish CT ies Agent, L. C. Wingard,
 Comments on Plans

Within the limitations of funds made available by Congress for that purpose, every possible stream guard will be employed during the current season by the United States Bureau of Fisheries, it was an- nounced today by Lemuel G. Win gard, Alaska Agent, who arrived here last night by airplane from Petersburg, and continued on West today with Commissioner Frank T. Bell on his fishery inspection.
 He succeeds Dennis Vim, former Agent. and will make his head quarters in this city. He probably will spend more time here than his predecessors did as he does not plan to station himself in Bristol Bay each year during the fishing season as was MT. Winn's practice.
 Funds Reduced Sharply
 The stream guards will be hired locally and will be Alaskans, Mc. Wingard said. They will be hired as needed and kept on the job ai

Great Armada Starts To. morrow for Visit to

ORBETELLO, Italy, June 13.- Keyed up to correct pitch by a rigorous course of special training they have been undergoing for many months, nearly one hundred stalwart youths of Italy's flying army are eagerly straining at the leash here, anxious to be off on their great adventure probably the greatest project in the history of aviatiOn-a trip to Chicago, H. linois, U. s. A., starting tomorrow.
 They are the fliers who count themselves fortunate in being in- cluded in the gallant band that will participate in Premier Benito Mus solini's great gesture to honor the Century of Progress Exposition at Chicago. In twenty-four giant sea- planes they will wing their way to the great fair, over stormy seas, mountains, valleys, lakes and riv- CTS. There will be danger. True. But when did the prospect of dan ger fail to add spice to an adven- ture?
 Balb0 Will Lead
 The great flying armada will be led by General Italo Balbo, Italian Air Minister, and one of his coun- try's most famous fliers. The Gen. eral was awarded the Harmon Trophy in 1881 for his achievement in the air, and already has a trans Atlantic flight under his belt. Not only will General Balbo lead the flight, but he has also been i: personal charge of the training oi the men who will make the triI
