ATTORNEY FIGHTS
TO FREE D|[L|NGER
Ohio and Indiana Seek Re.
turn of Desperate Rob-
ber Gang.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
TUCSON, Ariz., January 27.-Legal
technicalities have replaced guns in the
night for freedom Of John Dillinger,
Midwestern desperado, and three cap
tured henchmen.
They have shot their way out of more
formidable prisons, but they relied to-
day on the strategy Of Attorney John
L. Van Buskirk to get them out of the
county jail here, where they have been
under heavy guard since their unex-
pected capture Thursday.
BuSkirk planned to seek writs of
habeas corpus when bonds were fixed
at 100000 or more for each Of the
quartet. He laid further plans to re-
sist extradition proceedings to Indiana
and Ohio, where the mobsters are
wanted for murder prosecutions, and
possibly other MidweStern States which
they terrorized.
SCOTS ut Police.
Bail for Dillinger and Charles Max
ley, known as the hardest guy" of the
gang. was fixed at 100000 each as
fugitives from justice. Harry Pier
pont, soft-spoken trigger man." who
scoffed at the small town cops" who
trapped him, and Russell Clark, also
are charged with resisting officers.
They are held in lieu Of $lO5,0OO bail
each.
Clarence Houston, Pima County at
torney here, said Indiana authorities
had agreed to the return of the out
laws to Ohio, where capital punish
ment Is murder penalty, for prose-
cution. Gov. White said, however,
that his State would be satisfied with
the return Of Makley, Pierpont and
Clark for the murder of Sheriff Jess
Sarber at Lima.
Among officials who talked with the
prisoners in Jail was Gov. B. B. Moeur
Of Arizona. Pierpont greeted the Gov
ernor with smile and a jesting re-
mark. Makley shook hands with the
Governor and said, as he turned back
to his cell: II may get out-I've gotten
out before"
Loot Seized.
Loot seized from the gangsters by
officers. totaling $4,000 in currency
and diamonds valued at $125O0, was
attached in a suit filed in behalf OF
the Federal g. Deposit Co. of Mary
land, suretor for the East Chicago
Ino., bank. Carlton j. Endres, De-
partment Of Justice agent. said 1000
Of the currency found on Dillinger
had been identified as part Of the loot
taken from the bank
Federal officials expressed belief
| that of the total taken in the various
rcbberies, 100000 is unspent and un'
recovered. They believe it is hidden
or In the hands of ether members OF
the gang still at large.

also relative to the trolling, or mild cured salmon industry.
 Annual federal and territorial taxes and licenses paid by trolling industry $1O,OOO; by herring indus try s70,000.
 Total tonnage of vessels used by trolling industry 1,93S; by herring industry 4,124 tons.
 Weight of 1882 pack by trolling industry 4,434,40O pounds; by herring industry 57.860,9O7 pounds.
 Value of 1892 pack by trollers $461 ,504: by herring industry s1,- 173,15S.
 The foregoing comparative fig ures as to investment. value of pack and tax revenues paid should prove interesting to anyone requested to suppress an industry as productive as the herring industry, particular ly where no concrete benefit to anyone can be demonstrated. The herring plants in normal times em- ploy approximately 20OO persons most of whom, in the event of nc operations would be thrown on the labor market,
 In addition to aggravating the unemployment situation directly all expenditures for supplies, fish ing gear, ship and plant mainten- ance, transportation of pack (ap- proximately 3O,0O0 tons) and taxes and licenses, would automatically cease, thereby indirectly causing more unemployment.
 Gentlemen, in view of these facts we fail to see how anyone can just. ly think of annihilating an indus try as large and beneficial as tht herring reduction industry to sat isfy the questionable claims of 2 small ,faction May we have youl fair and unbiased consideration

sula where climatic conditions are believed to be best for the experi- ment.
 Transplanted to Kodiak q Afognak islands last winter as a part of the federal CWA project ad- ministered by the Commission, the snowshoe rabbits have increased re- markedly. These little animals are not only found in considerable numbers in the vicinity of where they were first liberated, but have been recently observed more than 20 miles distant.
 These rabbits, when they have increased to sufficient numbers and spread to q larger area. will fulfill great need, hitherto lacking on the island, as feed for wild foxes and in a minor way as a readily available cheap meat supply for the residents of the region.
 Elk Herd Increases
 From an original start of eight animals placed there in 1928, the herd of Roosevelt elk on Afognak island is now said to number about sixty. After a careful study of conditions, the Commission has decided to make the Kodiak -Afog- nak islands group the principal range of these animals in the Ter ritory. Transplantings from this main herd to other areas may be made if and when conditions are believed to be suitable.
 Introduced by private fur farm ing interests, raccoons have escaped from captivity and are now found in the Petersburg vicinity. These furbearers are be ng carefully watched by the Commission to sec how they adapt themselves to nat ural conditions, with a view to pos sible future introductions on a lar ger scale.
 Classified in the Alaska Game Act as a furbearer. the black bear has now, because of it's low pelt value, become regarded more as a game animal. Big game hunters visiting the south coast of the Ter ritory are seeking them as prized l trophies of their hunt. Easily killed and with neither bag limit nor sea. sonal protection when it's pelt is oi little value, this animal is rapidly becoming an asset of trophy value

COAsTING RIGHTS

The snowfall Thursday h [ brought out the children's sleds as a matter of course and since last Friday despite "No Coasting' signs sleds have been merrily whizzing down all streets suitable for coast ing.
 Sleds are allowed on Church street but that street is too level to suit the youngsters so they dis regard all regulations and coast wherever they wish.
 There have been a number of narrow escapes and before some lit tie fellow is terribly injured or killed by a car, the city officials and parents should use their au- thority and stop the coasting wherever undue danger threatens.
 It is not right to deny the chil- dren all coasting. One of the down streets should be closed to cars and set aside for sleds. But the children should be taught at home that the traffic regulations are for their safety and must be obeyed
 At the same time parents should work out a system with the city authorities to the end that the rights of both the children and car owners have consideration.

that threatens to surpass its for mer worth as a furbearer.
 Black Bear Protected
 As a result of several instances of unwarranted and needle S s slaughter of these practically harm less animals. it is advisable to grant them some protection. The Commission has recommended a close season from June 20 to Sep tember l and a bag limit of in Fur District l and 2. The above fur districts include Southeastern Alaska and the Prince William sound and Cook inlet regions.
 At Anan creek near Wrangen. there occurs during the salmon runs a remarkable concentration of black bears. An annually increasing number of tourists and yachts are visiting this place and it's reputa- tion is spreading so rapidly that this spot promises to become a ma jor tourist attraction. Set aside several years ago by the Forest Service as a recreational area. the bears there are now given complete protection by it's inclusion in the Commissions list of sanctuaries.
 Admiralty island is rapidly be- coming the objective of annually growing numbers of non-resident brown bear hunters. The total kill of bears on that island last year approached the limit believed by the Commission to be the largest that can be permitted to assure maintenance of a supply With prospects for an increasing pumber of big game hunters coming to Alaska next year to bag Admiralty island bears, it is advisable to re- duce the limit from two to one for residents and nOn-residents alike. Seventy-siX big game hunters visit- ed Alaska this year and spent more than $150,O00.0O according to the records of the Commission.
 Game Refuges
 An extensive beaver colony ad- joining the right-of-way of the Alaska Railroad from mile 50 to 51 at Grandyiew between Seward and Anchorage is given the protection of a closed area This area together with other similar ones along the railroad are source of much in- terest to the tourists.

The enactment of an amendment to the revenue law of the excise tax on imported fish and other oils apparently showed an inclination on the part of our law makers to foster rather than suppress the do- nestle manufacture of fish oils.
 Trollers are Blamed
 This agitation for anti-herring reduction plant legislation was in stigated by the Alaska Trollers as soefation, a representative body of those catching king and silver sal mon by trolling. Their contention is that the catching of herring is resulting in a scarcity of food for king and silver salmon
 We admit these salmon feed on herring to some extent, as do most other fish such as halibut and cod of all kinds. yet it is dogbtful if it is their principal food as their stomachs reveal quantities of other organic matter similar to that found in the stomachs of herring. Most fish are cannibalistic in that they eat small fish of even their own species, salmon even feeding to some extent on young salmon.
 The catch records of herring during the past several years show no decrease per unit of fishing gear operated, which indicates no depletion of herring. The king and silver salmon catches by means of trolling gear are not indicative of possible catches as during several recent years the rollers have chosen to strike during the heayi- est run of fish.
 However, we request that com parative data concerning the rela- tive catches of herring, and king and silver salmon caght by troll ing gear, to be secured from the United States bureau of fisheries biological survey also the apparent effect of a plentiful supply of herr ing as to these species of salmon caught by this means. This branch of the government service has for years been collecting data as to habits and supply of these species, although of recent years handi- capped by reduced appropriations.
 There is at present in session in Seattle a body called the north west planning conference with delegates from all northwestern states and Alaska. Their purpose is the conservation of this eountrys natural resources, including fish cries. They recommend an ample appropriation be given the United States bureau of fisheries for sci entific research work to ascertain proper methods of conservation oi our fisheries.
 We are perfectly willing to abide by the decision of such an unbiased investigation n d follow their recommendations and regula- tions. But, to be subject to the will and whims of certain local factions seems to us very unfair.
 We offer the following figures relative to the herring industry

 To afford sanctuaries where these interesting animals may be studied and photographed to best advantage Thayer lake and Pack creek on Admiralty island have been set aside as refuges wherein no shooting of brown or grizzly bears at any season will be per mitted
 Resident Hunting License
 Growing numbers of aliens and non-residents within the Territory during the past year or two who have been hunting illegally under the guise Of being residents have brought about many requests for a resident hunting license to aid the Commission in checking all hunters in the field to facilitate the en- forcement of the nonresident re- quirements om the Act, the resident hunting provision of the Act is to be invoked in the first judicial di- vision. The fee for vnis license is $1.00 and efforts will be made to have the revenue from it applied to the control of wolves in that di- vision.
 Registration of Trap Lines
 The need for the registration of trap lines to build up the wild fur supply is becoming more apparent from the increasing number of ap- peals being received from trappers throughout the Territory The sys- 1 tenn is said to be working remark ably we'll in the neighboring pro- vince of British Columbia The Commission expects to present a similar plan for the consideration of the trappers of Alaska during the next year.

 Herring oil continues to be

 soap, paint, linoleum and

 Foreign countries (Japan and Iceland) are subsidizing their her ring reduction industry instead oi endeavoring to suppress it.
