LARGE MEETING HELD TUESDAY
 BY FISHERMEN
Juneau Halibuters Agree to Lokkens Proposal
 with Reservations

At a meeting in the Co Il n c l. Chambers attended by every hali- but boat owner of Juneau and many others who are interested in the industry, H. E. Lokken, secre- tary for the Fishing Vessel Own CTS Association, last night pre- sented the plans of the Association for curtailment of halibut fishing in order to stabilize prices of the product. MT. Lokken held meetings in Ke tchikan, Petersburg, and Wrangell. on his way to Juneau and in each place the fishermen signified their intention of adopt ing the Associations plan.
 Proposal Outlined
 The proposal Of the Association as outlined last night by MT. Lok- ken provided for a limit of $500 pounds per man with a lay-up per iod of ten days between each trip. Each boat would be allowed a lee way of less than 1000 pounds, with any boat bringing in more than 1000 pounds extra being penalized two days extra layup for each 1000 pounds over.
 Juneau Fishermen Agree
 Juneau fishermen eXpresse d themselves as in favor of the cur tailment plan, but due to the fact that all fishing from here is done according to the tides, could not agree on the lay-up periods.
 Alternate Plan
 An alternate plan was offered by the local fishermen suggesting that they be allowed to make two con- secutive trips without lay-up fol- lowed by 20-day 1ay-up period, rather than taking a 10-day lay-up after each trip. This would mean that the boats would make three trips in March and April, the first two in March to be followed by a 2O-day lay-up period before the third trip the latter part of April.
 Division of Fleet
 It was also suggested by MT Lok- ken that the boats, whose owners names begin with letters from A to L be in one group, and those from M to z in another, the groups al- ternating on trips and lay-ups. It was decided that the first group to go out would be the M to z class, in which five boats fall and the second would be A to L, includ- ing ten boats.
 To Study Plan
 MT. Lokken, who left for Prince Rupert this morning on the Prin-

cess Norah agreed to study further on the particular problems of the Juneau fishermen in order to in corporate a clause in the proposals to take care of the local require ments.
 Einar Olsen, representative here of the halibut fishermen, presided at the meeting during which the proposals were discussed informal ly for over four hours.
 Those in addition to the boat owners, who attended the meeting included Wallis s. George, Arnot Hendrickson, Allen Shattuck, Chas. G. Warner, Harold Swanson and Severn Swanson.

U. S. CAN IDENTIFY
MOST CRIMINALS
Fingerprints of 4,500,O00 in
Government Files.


Washlngton.-0n file at the Depart.
ment Of Justice are 4,5O0,OOO finger.
print cards bearing the tell-tale whorls
and loops by which almost any Grim,
lnal In the land can be identified.
To examine all these cards at the
rate of one every ten seconds would
require five years. working six days
a week. eight hours a day.
But-through an elaborate filing
system, when prints are received for
identiflcation-it requires only 30 sec.
onds to match them up with the de.
partment files.
And now ]. Edgar Hoover. director
OF Uncle Sans agents who wage re-
lentless war on gangsters, wants to
cut that time to five seconds. Even
p seconds saved might prove a de.
cisive factor in an emergency, he
pointed out.
The five-second record can be made
by robot" searcher. 1t already has
been applied to about $4,000 finger.
print cards and is being rapidly ex.
tended to others.
Roughly, this amazing machine
works like this:
Each of the ten fingerprints re
ceiyed from law enforcement agency
is analysed separately and made into
a composite diagram, punched into q
card.
When sample fingerprint is re-
ceived for Identification. the machine
is "set" according to the type Of the
sample and the cards fed in. Miracu.
lousy, it fiips out only a dozen or so
of the cards most likely to correspond
with the sample.
To establish an Identification, 1t is
necessary only to examine the finger
print record represented by the select
ed punch cards.
