MARTIN TAXES PROTEST SOUTH
 ON FISHERIES
Local Fish Buyer Says Small Trap Operators Dis
 criminated Against

Acting in the interest of small private fish trap owners, Capt A. J. Martin, local fish buyer and former ly connected with fishing in Ore gon and Washington for several years, accompanied by his bride, the former Betty Kamato, will be pas senger to Vancouver and Seattle on the Princess Norah leaving Juneau early tomorrow morning
 Capt. Martin has been making close study of local salmon fishing conditions for the past four years. and now feels he has acquired suf- ficient data to lay before Commis- sion of Fisheries Frank T. Bell and Alaska Agent of the Bureau of Fish cries L. G. Wingard, in Seattle.
 The data collected by Capt. Mar tin, aided by a group of local fish ermen, is the basis for their con- tention that small trap owners have been discriminated against, and, Capt Martin stated. if no correc- tive action is taken by the fisher ies officials. a test case will be in- troduced in the courts, in an attempt to invalidate provisions of the White" bill, the enabling act un- der which the Alaska Bureau of Fisheries is now functioning, and which was passed by Congress in 1926.
 The contention of Capt. Martin and his group is:
 That the Bureau of Fisheries has, under the authority given it in the White Bill, discriminated against small trap operators, in the interest of large packing compan- ies, by closing districts in which small traps had been operating, and later re-opening them to allow the installation of traps by the larger companies; thus shutting out the small operators"
 Capt Martin also will ask to have the Alaska Salmon Corporation traps at Cross Sound and Inian Is-

MARGETT TO HEAD
TOWNSEND DRIVE
California Pension Worker
Is Made National Pub.
IiCity Chief.

While a caravan of their followers
rolls across the country with Washing
ton its destination, leaders of the
Townsend old-age pension movement
announced today that Edward j. Mar
gett is to become national director of
public relations" and will take lead
ing part in mammoth membership
drive in which it is estimated that
100000 will become new Townsend
Club members"
Margett has been State area man
ager for Northern California. During
early days of public hearings by the
special House committee investigating
all old-age pension movements, James
r. Sullivan, counsel for the committee,
submitted certified copies of three in
dictments returned against Margett
in the State of Washington in 1914.
Two of them charged him with
larceny, while the third charged him
with accepting the earnings of pros
titute. Although no convictions fol-
lowed, the House committee on roll
call vote decided to accept evidence OF
the indictments in connection with
the character record of Margett.
The, committee also was told Mar
gett had had an income OF $1,000 per
month from the Townsend movement.
Margett wired his defiance to the
committee, saying his income was
even greater and that he was not
afraid of "the big, bad wolf"
In commenting on the selection of
Margett, this weeks issue of the
Townsend Weekly said the choice was
made because of the marvellous rec
ord Mr.. Margett established in the
northern area of California in his
organization work" From 800 to 500
per day are joining the movement in
that section, the weekly claimed.
"Mr. Margett is known in Califor-
MIA as clever and astute politician" !"
the Weekly said, 'and his wisdom and
experience in political trends should
be of great help in the national field,
while as an organizer he ranks among
the best to be found in the business"
The latest issue of the Weekly also
carries tWo-page spread announcing
plans for the visual education pro-
gram" principal feature of which will
be the use of projection machines
and slides. Each large club is ex-
pected to buy one Of the machines. it
is noted. DR.. S. E. Taylor, expert
photographer and experienced visual
instruction lecturer is directing the
new program it was announced. The
work now is centering in Baltimore.
The Weekly also carried a page l
story describing adjournment of the
hearings, placing the responsibility
on Chairman Bell and relating how
Sheridan Howney, personal counsel
for DR.. F. E. Townsend, protested the
delay.
The hearing now is scheduled to
resume next Tuesday. May 10, with
the Townsend caravan" expected in
Washington over the week end. The
group supposedly is coming for the
purpose of bringing names of an
estimated 100000 Townsend fol-
lowers.
Meanwhile, aides of the Bell COM
mittee are assembling all their evi-
dence and making plans to press the
public hearings to a conclusion when
they convene next week.
