CALLlSON STARTING DEVELOPMENT
 QUARTZ PROPERTIES UN nUDAnLS

Lynch Callison, who with his ia ther and two brothers last season were the fortunate locators or hign grade quartz on MeDames creek in the Cassiar mining district, arrived here enroute to McDames Monday morning from the states where he has spent the winter He was ae- eompanied by his cousin, George Lynch, of North Dakota.
 Callison last fall sold the 1 i quartz claims which cover the Wing placer properties on McDames, to Billy Martin, oldtime Alaskan, who put in the first mill at the Willow Creek mines some years ago. The price paid by Martin was S135,000. substantial sum having been made as a down payment.
 Martin has made all arrange ments for putting in a mill on Me Danes this season. He is sending in engineers by plane through Atlin. Callison came in ahead to get a camp ready for summer operations. Cabins and a bunkhouse will be constructed of logs. for an initial crew of 20 men.
 Capt. William Strong's plane will be used for transporting men and supplies to some extent but all heavy equipment and the bulk of the supplies will be shipped to Wrangell and taken to Telegraph Creek by the Harrington Transpor- tation company
 Placer Records
 Government records at Vancou- yer, BIG, states Callison. show that over three million dollars in placer gold was recovered from McDames in 1899. The quartz claims located by the Callisons would seem to be the source of those plaeers.
 Ten sacks of samples put through the Alaska Juneau mill last fall

Halibut Boat Owners
 Agree Smaller Trips

Wrangell halibut fishermen still have their boats tied up, even though the season is legally open, waiting for developments of the un- ion in Ketchikan.
 On Tuesday night nalibut vessel owners voted to accept the pro- posed curtailment plan for the sea- son, allowing vessels smaller catches each trip and also differen- tiating between ships marketing in Alaska and those marketing In the south Final acceptance of the plan is up to the main body of the Fish ing Vessel Owners association in Seattle.
 The plan calls for a ten-day lay up between trips, the same period that was in effect last season. Under these regulations, all vessels fishing in area three, regardless of flag or market, will be allowed to take $500 pounds per man per trip, 70 vessel taking more than 40,250 i trip. Last year 1000 pounds was the limit for each man, with no maximum for the number of men in the crew.
 -aIea tVo limitations vary, with distinct inclination in the regu- iations toward the protection of Alaskan fleets being written into the regulations. Vessels marketing fish from this area in the south are permitted smaller catches. Low CT prices prevailing here also prompt higher catches for the nor thern vessels.
 Alaska Fleet Protected
 Under the new regulations the American vessels fishing in area two banks and marketing in the north may take 28OO pounds per man per trip and if marketing in Seattle 2500 pounds per man per trip. Last year all vessels in this area were permitted $500 pounds per man per trip. No vessel may take over 16,5O0 pounds per trip on these banks.
 Canadian vessels operating in area two are permitted 31OO

Paralysis
Rules
Given

Five rules to aid in the proven.
ton of infantile paralysis which is
sweeping Virginia and invading
Washington were announced for
the benefit of parents in the
Washington area today by DR.. j.
P. Leake, of the United States
Public Health Service.
Briefly the rules are:
protect children against un.
due fatigue or strain.
"AvOid unnecessary contact,
bearing in mind the virus is
spread from nose and throat to
nose and throat.
Keep all children who are
even slightly i'll or feveriSh iSO-
lated and quiet.
"Obey all quarantine rules.
Secure medical assistance
promptly IL suspicious symptoms
such as fever, constipation.
drowsiness, irritability or head.
ache appear"
DR.. Leake said a child can be eX
posed to the disease without com.
ing in close contact with a person
already infected. Polio is one OF
the diseases for which there are
many carriers of the germs during
times of an epidemic, he said.
On the question of gargling and
spraying the nose and throat with
antiseptics, DR.. Leake said:
Cleanliness and mOu tn
hygiene are advisable at all
times, but after a series of years
of vigorous treatment following
every epidemic, to prevent bring
ing polio home to my family, 1
found that the result was a raw
nose and throat, which is per-
haps more dangerous than no
treatment It all.
Naturally, during epidemic
prevalence Of the disease we
keep our children from unneces-
sary exposure to others, sick or
well, and especially away from
children with feverish digestive
disturbances. We do not forget
that we grOWn-ups may bring
the infection home, and we put
all reasonable barriers of clean
illness between ourselves and
those who are of the particu.
larly susceptible ages"
Epidemics of infantile paralysis
break out at the conclusion of the
school year and by the beginning
of the fall season the period of in
lection is virtually over, DR.. Leake
said.
There is evidence, he added,
that swimming, if not too strenu-
GUS, is a relatively harmless pas
time as far as the polio infection
is concerned.
