Lay Plans to Salvage
Sunken Persian Armada

A company has been formed In
italy To raise the 907 Persian battle
ships sunk in the battle OF Salamis,
2.413 years ago. Italian salvagers,
they admit. raised the galleys of Cali
gula in the Lake of Nemi. but they
did II by draining the lake. An ltal-
ian company also fished up a Vene-
tian galley sunk In the harbor OF
Rhodes 400 years ago. But there Is
a big difference. archeologlsts assert,
between this work and the job OF
bringing the fleet of Nerxes To the
surface. The Bay of Salamis is of
great depth. they say. while Lake
Nemi was comparably shallow. What
with the salt water. the tides, the
seaweed and the time that has
elapsed since 4S0 Il. e. II Is prob
able. experts say. that all traces OF
the mighty Persian armada which the
Athenians sank are gone. II would
be much better, in the opinion of the
Athenian archeologists, to fish up the
money sunk with the Turkish and
Egyptian warships at the battle OF
Navarino. 105 years ago.

SNAKE VENOM OF

Modern medical research Is looking

Experiments have been carried out
over period of years In Swiss

strangest cure Of all-snake venom.
There are scientists who believe
that the worlds poisonous snakes,
which have killed millions OF people

 Reducing the distance interval between nets in Valdez Arm, on Prince William Sound, from 400 yards to 200 yards.
 Shortening the weekly closed period 36 hours on the south side of Alaska Peninsula; also shorten ing such obscure by 12 hours in the Cook Inlet area during part of the season.
 'Lengthening the salmon-fish- ing season in parts of Prince Will liam Sound and of Southeast AL aska.

 Conservation Needs Met There are also other less inn portant changes in the regulations maugurated by me that have been helpful in promoting the welfare of the residents of Alaska as a whole. A number of these chang es were effective during the fish ing season in 1883 and met with widespread approval.
 Tt is my feeling that the ac- tion taken along these lines has adequately met conservation re- ouirements and at the same time has been of benefit generally to the Territory and the various in terests concerned.
 Although I have gone as far as I can under present conditions, it seems impossible to satisfy every one. No matter what I do there are always those who demand changes in the regulations to suit their particular needs. My sym pathies are with the people of AL aska and I have endeavored at all times to meet their demands when ever possible or reasonable.
 "In the carrying out of my pro- gram I shall welcome constructive

we do. this undoubtedly always will be the case.
 Tn formulating the regulations I have in mind consistently the desirability of spreading employ ment, so that the small fellow particularly may have chance to prosper. This certainly is in line with the Presidents policy that work be given to as many people as possible.
 Expresses Appreciation
 T wish to express my apprec- iation of the consideration and courtesy which you have shown me at all times in our exchanges of correspondence and discussions in regard to fishery problems in AL aska. I appreciate very much your fair and friendly attitude. I know that you have the interest of your constituents and the welfare of AL aska at heart at all times. I know also that you are broad-minded and fair and that you can apprec- fate the firm stand which I must take from time to time in dealing with fishery questions and in de- clining requests of individuals or organizations for modification of the regulations.
 While have not been able to accede to all of your requests re- garding the fisheries, fully real ize that you are much in earnest in trying to help the fishermen and workers in Alaska. You in turn will understand that, in the interests of conservation. I shall probably find it necessary from time to time to initiate regulations that may not be satisfactory to some of your friends and constit- uents in Alaska.
 T know that you can view the entire situation broadly, as I do, in not allowing the demand of any one individual or group for a par ticular thing to sway judgent as to what may be best for all of the people of the Territory and the in- dustry in it's entirety.

 All five dredges of the Fairbanks Exploration Company are now in operation. The last two, both on Cleary Creek, began digging yes terday, and with them working the entire fleet is now engaged in gold recovery activities for the 1884 sea- son.
 Dredge work was started this spring earlier than ever before in the history of this district The Exploration Company has been dredging since 1928.
 First Dredge on March 17
 The first dredge to go into pro- duction this season was No. 3 on Goldstream, which began working March IT, a week earlier than any dredging operations last year. The two other dredges on Goldstream got into action March Is and March 19
 Despite the fact that the Fair DanKS QlStrlcJ last winter eXpef- fenced the lowest temperatures ever recorded in the 30 years history of the Fairbanks Weather Bu- reau ice on the dredge ponds this spring was not so thick as it fre- quently has been.
 This condition was the result of the fairly good depths of snow that accumulated soon after the freeze up early last winter.
 Weather conditions are ideal now. The winter is breaking rap idly and everything is favorable for an early start of mining work.
 The Exploration Company looks forward to a most successful sea- son.
