TO CHANGE
SALMON CODE

Hugh J. Wade, NRA administra-
tor for Alaska, passed through
Wrangell on the Yukon Monday
evening. returning to his head
quarters at Juneau from attending
hearings on the proposed salmon
code held in San Francisco the lat
ter part of February.
Some minor but no major chang
es resulted from the hearings. Wage
scales as contained in the proposed
code. establishing a minimum rate
of nay for cannery workers not re-
ceiving board and lodging of 35
cents per hour are practically I'M
changed. A 4S-hour week for the
salmon canning industry was not
adopted. The attempt of Delegate
A. j. Dimond to change the child
labor provisions so as to permit
children between the ages of IA
and 16 years to work in the can
neries was unsuccessful. Attempts
failed to establish minimum prices
for raw fish.
C. E. Morgan of Colorado and w.
B. Kimball of the state of Wash
ington, newly appointed aids to
Mr. Wade. were accompanying him
to Juneau They will investigate
conditions in Alaska and expect to
visit Wrangell soon to study codes
and the way business firms are COM
plying with them.
Mr.. Wade stated that stricter
compliance with NRA codes will be
demanded of Alaskans very short
ly, although within the next three
weeks he will hold public hearings
in juneau at viii h time motions
for changes may be proposed

NEEDED TO
BAND GEEyE

When DIR. o. j. Murie of the T.
s. Biological Survey was here in
1924 he headed a months expedi-
tion to round up ESQ wild Cackling
and Canadian geese at Hooper Bay
Young geese were caught and
marked with numbered Biological
Survey bands for the purpose of
obtaining information about the mi
grations of the geese to the south.
Several Geese Taken
More than fifty of the geese have
been reported captured. Two were
recovered before they left Alaska,
one on Nelson Island and the other
on the Ugashik River. One of the
avian species was captured at Co
pals Beach. Washington, and three
Others were reported taken in the
vicinity of the Columbia River
mouth.
In a Federal Migratory Bird re-
serve on the Oregon-California line,
sixteen of the game birds were
caught. But the largest group was
rounded up in the Sacramento Val
ley in California, where about thirty
birds We're taken. And even farther
south three birds were recovered
near Los Ramos.
1t is believed that the game birds
fly directly over the gulf of Alaska
when going Outside"
Hutehins' Geese into Canada
When Murie was in Alaska in
1926 he placed bands on thirty
close relatives of the Cackling and
Canadian geese, the Hutchins' var
iety.
These birds appear to cross Alber-
ia and saskatchewan and thence
into the Great Plains of the United
States. Eight of the birds were re-
captured, no two in the same state.
Alaska is one of the greatest
breedings grounds in North America
and effort is being made to increase
banding stations in order to obtain
information on the routes of the
geese and study their habits.
Ducks from the States
And ducks are great travellers,
also. Seventy-one ducks banded at
stations in the States have been
recovered in the Territory.
