HEAD OF ALASKA FISHERME EN ON WAY TO SEWARD
Wassenkari Charges Out side Union Forcing Pack
 CTS to Pay Pen alty

Returning to Alaska after two months of conferences with fishing companies and members of the Al aska Fishermen's Union (the Out side Union), w R. Wassenkari, President of the United Fishermen of Alaska, declared that the Out side fishermen have forced the packers to pay a penalty for every resident fisherman employed this year, unless such residents join the Outside union. pff
 MT. Wassenkari passed through Juneau today on the Yukon, bound for his home in Seward and from there to Anchorage where he will fly to Bristol Bay for the salmon season which opens June 25. In a statement he said' ia
 "A strong movement is on foot to wreck our organization, and the Outside Union has clause in its agreement which compels the pack CTS to pay to the Alaska Fishermens Union, one-third of all the fish of resident fishermen who do not be- long to the Outside Union. H
 'sThe clause was put in there to force the packers to insist that the residents join the Outside Un- ion in order to avoid paying the one-third But the packers are go- ing to take an impartial stand on the situation, and will leave it op- i tional to the residents. Now, this means much as the packers do not want to see our organization go under. -e
 The reason the Outside union is taking such drastic measures is that they are getting afraid of our strength and they want us in their organization so they can control us. Their intention is to restrict the residents to so many boats to line because they know that the natural development of the Territory is bringing in more and more resi- dent fishermen every year who will CNtIlludliy llCCDC .Otb uiN OtooANS fishermen altogether. It is case of lf-preservation with them to try to control the resident fisher men"
 MT. Wassenkari said the packing companies have arranged for em- ploying resident and outside fisher men on the same basis as in 1884. Bristol Bay was closed to general commercial fishing last year). The Bureau of Fisheries has fixed the limit on gill net boats permitted in Bristol Bay this season at il027 Should the packers employ more boats than this number, it would have the effect of causing the Bu- reau to shorten the season, he said Out of the 1927 boats authorized, on the basis of 1894 figures, there will be 682 boats set aside for Outside fishermen and 345 for resident fish ermen. Two men fish in each boat In addition to the boats, there were in 1884, a total ol 333 fishermen employed as net-setters, working fixed nets on the shore.

CANNERYMEN MORT ABOUND
 FOR SEASON
Leaders in Industry Already in Alaska or Plan
 ming to Come

SEATTLE, May 19.-With the approach of summer, activity in the Canned Salmon Industry is again returning to the production end of the business-fishing and canning in Alaska waters.
 During a large part of the year the problems of financing and sell ing the pack, and making arrange ments to have plants, gear, and boats in readiness for the new. sea- son absorb all the attention of business leaders and operating heads in tbe industry, but the ap proach of the salmon run moves the industry's capitol north to AL aska. Seattle is the sales capitol for Canned Salmon, but the in dustry is dependent first of all on it's supply of high quality fish.
 Alaska produces about 5,50O,000 cases of canned salmon each year It is the leading producer of this fish for the American market, and in turn the Territory derives it's chief support from the catching, preparation. and marketing of this product.
 Now that the commercial fish, ing season is not far off, every northbound sailing takes a number of salmon packers, superintendents fishermen, and workers, as well as a large volume of materials back to Alaska in preparation for the salmon run. Many are going on company supply vessels in addition to the regularly scheduled steam CTS.
 Among those who have recently left Puget Sound ports or who are about to leave are:
 For Ketchikan: L. s. Buschmann, A. Wigen, w. N Williams.
 For Cordova: G. B. Cedarhoime, Tom Freeman. Fred Gepner, E. B, Hanley, w. H. Harris. Captain Austin E. Lathrop, J. E. Most, James Parks.
