DissentiOn Grows
In Salmon Fracas
New Initiative Would Kill Can
ming Industry, Trainers Of
''77" Say

Before the recent general election
fish trap operators on the Pacific
coast were bitterly opposing the
passage of Initiative IT, the social
led salmon conservation measure,
which was passed by the voters. 1t
severely curtails the operations OF
purse SeinerS.
Now, according to the Salmon
Conservation League of Washingtoa
sponsors of No. n, the trap opera
tors are supporting another initia-
tive, No. 5, which would eliminate
purse seining entirely. The new
initiative, Ken Mcleod, educational
director of the league, declares
would "paralyZe the salmon canning
industry and when the industry is
wiped out, those trap interests back
of No. 5 feel that they will have an
excellent chance for having the
traps reinstated on the crest Of dis
satisfaction that will surge over the
people"
mot all, but a part of the same
individuals and corporations who
were so active in opposing n are
furnishing the finances for Initia-
tive No. 5, whose sole aim is to dis
credit No. r."
No. II restricted purse seinins
severely, but permitted sufficient
operations of this type to fishing
gear to maintain the canneries, M,
Mcleod explains.

Seen As Assurance High Dam
Has Won Favor

WENATCHEE - Statewide sup
port of the movement underway in
North Central Washington to secure
federal approval of the immediate
construction of the high dam at
Grand Coulee, was indicated when
state leaders spoke enthusiastically
at the high dam rally and banquet
held here Saturday.
Creation of a Columbia river
authority, however, was declared
premature at this time" The Co
lumbia River Development League
sponsored the rally. State Senator
Horace E. Smith of Omak presided
as POSTMASTER at the banquet.
One resolution adopted at the
BANQUET urged Governor Clarence
D. Martin to include a plea for the
high dam at Grand Coulee in his
regular message to- the legislature
and the other named Rufus Woods,
Wenatchee publisher and member
of the basin commission, as a spe-
cial representative for the develop
ment league in Washington, D. c.,
with wide powers.
The special committee named III
the afternoon by w. r. Prowel,
Wenatchee, president of the league,
included Gail Mathews, Ephrata;
State Senator Horace Smith, Omak:
s. s. McClintock, spokesman for the
Spokane delegation; Fred Graham,
Seattle, and w. T. Romans, Spo-
kane. The work of the Columbia
basin commission was Endorsed.
The presidents assertion that Eve
must quit this relief business" and
his Recommendation for an expand
ed PWA program of self liquidation

preted as assurance the high dam
will be considered, according to
State Senator Smith: Mayor Leon

State Grange master, and State
Representatives Mrs. Florence Mey-
ers, Colfax, and John r. Jones,

The presidents program aimed at
moving farmers from submarginal
lands to more fertile soil also was
interpreted a assurance the presi-
dent had the fertile acres OF the
