WASHINGTON, May 10--Alaska Delegate A. J. Dimond said yes terday that Alaska would be self supporting and would double her population in ten years if the Federal government would give the Territory control over the fisheries industry and public lands.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, May TO-. Ships creaked at the docks along the Pacific Coast today while wat erfront employers and striking long shoremen dug in for what appeared to be a bitter seize.
 Vessels which had been loaded completely or in part before the strike was called at 8 o'clock yes- terday morning, sailed on sched- ule
 Real Test Today
 Generally it is expected that the real test will develop during today when dock foremen are expected to walkout.
 In some places recruited labor was secured in an attempt to load ships and prevent cargo jam.
 At the principal ports on the coast employers rejected the de- mand of the longshoremen for in creases in pay and for shorter hours with notices posted on dock doors: Experience desirable but not necessary. Longsh hore m n wanted"
 Against this move, officials of the Longshoremens Associat ion raised the threat of sympathetic action by other organized workers, principally teamsters or truckmen in Seattle and Oakland. who have refused to handle freight to and from the docks. Similar support is predicted in other cities.
