 Since Douglas Lay, Resident En- gineer for the Omineca District of British Columbia visited Vital Creek last summer, the holdings of the Chinese operators have passed to the control of the Ju- neau group, Shepard and asso- ciateS having taken possession of the lower ground on January 1. ditions permit, possibly by April Creek just as soon as weather con- ditionS permit, possibly by Aprilf 15.

LOGGING CAMPS ARE OPERATING
 AT FULL TIME
Bur dick Finds Loggers Swamped with Orders
 for Filing Tmbers

The logging industry in northern Chatham Strait and Icy Strait is flourishing and camps are operat- ing full tilt, according to District Forest Ranger Charles Burdick who returned here last night from a cruise in that region.
 There is the usual demand for logs for fish traps and the demand for piling for docks is unusually heavy, he said. He sealed piling timber in Peril Strait and around Hoonah.
 Among the larger orders for pill ing were those placed by the New England Fish Company for it's plant at Chatham, Peril Strait Packing Company, Puget Sound and Astoria Packing Company and the Pacific American Fisheries at Excursion Inlet, and the Chichagof Gold Mining Company.
 Tenakee, said Ranger Burdick, now rejoices in the first automobile ever taken to that village. It is a motor truck sent there to haul gravel for the village road now under construction by the Forest Service. Foreman Dan Moller IS working a crew of 60, alternating 30 men each week.
 At Baranof, Ranger Burdick made arrangements for reconstructing the board walk" to the hot springs There are four feet of snow on the ground there at present and this project probably wont be start ed until about the middle of next month.
