p ACK FIGURES SHOW VALUE OF
 CONSERVATION
Increase in Output Follows Installation of Closed
 Seasons, Areas

The practical value of the policy of conservation of Alaska fishery resources, particularly salmon, is shown by a review of canned sal mon pack figures over the last twenty-seven years.
 The effect of the Government conservation program shows up markedly following the installation of closed fishing seasons and areas under the act of 1924 The average pack during the fifteen years, 1910 through 1924, amounted to little over 4,370,000 cases each year In the five years, l925-1929, following the establishment of seasonal clos ing and closed periods, the average pack for the Territory was raised to 5,222, 900 cases, and for the pe- riod 1929 through 1884, the average increased to 5,676,000 The average of 1885 and 1886 (one short red pack year and one normal red pack year) was 6,805 ,O00 cases. This is an increase over the average of the fifteen years prior to the en- actment of the law of 1924 of more than 2,430,000 cases.
 A similar study of the pack of pink salmon in Southeast Alaska shows even more dramatically the success of the conservation pro- gram through which packers and fishermen have sacrificed immed- fate profit to the end that the fishery resource might be preserved and built up. The large packs in this area during the war years, packs put up without regard for conserving the resource, resulted in cutting down the size of the supply very materially. The present con- servation program has succeeded in bringing the supply back so that, making due allowances for the fluctuations in natural elements which are beyond the power of man, the run Is now lar greater than previously.
 Figures Show Conservation Results
 In the ten years, l910-19l9, the pink pack in Southeast averaged 1,355,14l cases. For the five years, 1920-1924. the average was l,340.350 cases. Following the act of 1924 establishing a closed season for conservation purposes and requiring the Bureau of Fisheries to provide for a 50 per cent escapement of fish, the average increased to L. 624, BOT cases. For the five years, 1930-1934, it increased further to 1,962,9O9 cases. The average of the last two pink packs in Southeast was 2,584,574, or nearly double the average of the years 1910-1919.
 Bureau of Fisheries figures for the average number of pink sal mon dndiyidual fish, not packed cases) caught in Alaska annually for the ten years 19l5- 1924. amount ed to 33,763,284. For the period

SHELLEY HAS LONG
UNION MEMBERSHIP

Mr.. Pete Shelley, Democratic can
didate for alderman of the third
ward, has had a world of experience
in the labor movement. Not so many
years ago he was a member of the
Street Car Mems Union when a con-
ductor and motorman. He was cour-
teous and efficient and we'll liked
by all of his fellow employees. At
the time Mr.. Shelley left the Street
Car Company to become connected
with the Milwaukee Railroad, many
of the street car men with whom he
had worked expressed their sincere
regrets at his departure, but lever
tleless were glad that he had been
elevated to a better position. Mr..
Shelley has also been a member of
the BARRIERS, the Butchers, and the
Federal Labor organizations. At the
present time he is a member of the
Order of Railroad Conductors and
the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men.
With this fundamental union ex-
perience behind him, members of
organized labor can safely support
him in the election.

ton to make the best bill that could
be had from the poor material at
hand.
President Graham was ably sec
onded by Vice President Driscoll of
the Federation, Pat DeLoughry of
Butte, Ehrler of Butte Pressmen.
Hamilton of Musselshell, of the U.
M. w. A, and many other speakers
representing the various organiza-
tons of the state.
1t is estimated that upwards of
fifty labor representatives we're
present at the hearing and at its
close the committe chairman stated
that there would no doubt be sew
eral committee amendments pro-
posed to cover the objections of the
labor groups and eliminate the worst
features of the bill.
The general attitude of the labor
representatives was that under the
present Federal act the state un-
employment measure could be
nothing more than a makeship no
matter how carefully and diligently
drawn and amended by the com
mittee of the Assembly.
Labor realizes far better than
many of our pseudo statesmen that
root of the evil with which we are
forced to contend goes far deeper
than the power Of such makeshift
legislation to correct, and it is ex-
tremely doubtful if any measure
based on the theory of insuring men
against loss of employment can do
o than slightly ameliorate the
situation. Sound common sense
would dictate that the proper solu-
ton would require providing useful
productive jobs for the workers
rather than insuring them against
the loss Of a job which is already
poorly paid.

are more thoroughly alive to the
economic aspects of the situation
than news writers, lawyers, and
many of our half baked economic
theorists who seem to know better
what is good for the laboring groups
than the laboring groups themselves.
Vigorous objections were raised to
any attempt to compel the employee
to contribute to the unemployment
insurance fund since this would
amount to forcing the employed
worker even though employed at
small wages to contribute to a fund
for the payment of unemployment
insurance and penalize him for a
situation for which he is not re-
sponsible. 1t would also, as was
stated by one labor representative,
be in effect an attempt to "plunge
a hand into an empty pocket and
bring it forth full of twenty dollar
bills" This feature of the bill, the
chairman Of the committee stated,
would be stricken out.
The committee was also urged to
eliminate the flat rate of compensa-
ton, fixed by the bill at a $500
weekly minimum and graduated on
a percentage of the workers previ-
Gus earning capacity and substitute
therefor the sliding scale of COM
pensation adopted by the Montana
Federation legislative convention.
Representative Stimatz of Butte
asked if that would make the bill
satisfactory to labor and was imme-
diately met with the reply that no
labor group felt that the bill even
after amended by the committee
would be satisfactory, but that under
the Federal act it was all that could
be secured and it was labor's inten-

Teachers Watch Senate
on Retirement Measure

While members of the Butte
Teachers Union await Senate action
on Teachers Retirement Bill, they
proudly receive concentrations for
Miss Cecilia Leary and Miss Ange-
line Golubin, lobbyists at the Mon
tana legislative assembly. From
Butte circles and other parts of Mon
tana come messages of praise for the
Butte Unions representatives. Miss
Leary is an exceptionally able
speaker and shrewd political strate-
gist. Her abilities have long been
recognized by her associates. That
educators, law makers, business men
and women throughout the state
have publicly acclaimed her an out
standing personality is not surpris-
ing to her fraternal friends, and it
is with the greatest satisfaction that
they accept comment on her work
in Helena. Miss Leary is a delegate
to the Silver Bow Trades and Labor
Council and teaches at the Harrison
school.
Miss Golubin also shares public
acclaim for her activities in pro-
noting the retirement measure, and
justly so. She is a fluent and en-
thusiastic speaker, well versed in the
problems of the school, and an au-
thority on teacher retirement. Miss
Golubin, formerly a member of the
Webster teaching staff, has been pro-
NOTED to speech correction teacher
in the Butte schools.
Messages from units of the Mon
tana Education Association, notably
Billings, have been received thank
ing Miss Leary and Miss Golubir
for their part in presenting the
teachers legislative program on re
tirement. From the Great Fall.
school system has come a letter tC
Supt. Douglas Gold, in praise of the
Butte teachers.
The unions of Butte and Grea-
Falls join the ranks of educators il
the state in giving the Butte's unior
representatives a ''big hand and the
Montana legislators who supported
the Retirement Bill. It is to be hoped
that the Montana Senate will favor,
ably act on the bill.

should be given credit for %recogniz-
ing a constructive proposal when
presented.
Far different was the attitude
taken by O'Connor, of Carbon, who
stated that the name production for
use sounded too much like Carl
Marx, and Upton Sinclair, and for
that reason he wanted none of it.
Upon being asked by Burns of Flat
head if he had read Carl Marx, o.
Connor replied that he had not,
which reminded one spectator in the
gallery of a story of one of the war
time four-minute speakers in the
Ozarks.
This speaker had quoted Washing
ton, Lincoln and Jefferson without
eliciting any enthusiasm, and paus-
ing in his speech he asked the audi
ence if they had ever heard of
Washington. On being answered in
the negative he asked if they had
heard of Jefferson, and received a
similar answer. On asking if they
had heard of Lincoln and receiving
another negative he paused and in
utter disgust he asked if any of the
audience had ever heard of God.
There was complete silence for a
moment and then a voice from the
rear of the hall said, Say, mister,
was his last name Damn"
Naturally the proponents of this
bill did not, nor do not expect indi-
viduals who dislike mental activity
to Immediately grasp or accept a
new proposal nor do they expect
men who admit that they have I
closed mind to even listen to an
idea. However this same matter will
return later to plague those who
now reject or deride it. That has
always been the course of construc-
tive proposals and it will be the same
in this case.
Aside from this and a few minor
matters of a constructive nature,
little of Importance has taken place.
As stated previously there r sew
eral good men in both branches of
the Assembly but initiative and con-
certed action are woefully absent
and when the record of the present
legislative assembly is finally writ
ten there will no doubt be set on foot
a popular movement to move the
State Capitol from Helena to Warm
Springs.

What's Happening
in The Unions

The formation of unions and their
activities are usually associated with
men but if the women keep turning
out as they did last Tuesday at the
Trades and Labor Council, it won't
be long before the women will ex-
coed the men in numbers. AT Tues
days meeting there were II women
present representing the following
organizations: Government EN-
ployes, two, Laundry Workers,
three; Women's Protective, four;
Miners Auxiliary, three; Clerks, one;
Teachers, two; and Librarians, two.
A letter was received from Mil
waukee, Wisconsin, stating that the
Lindemann and Hoverson Company
strike had been settled. This COM
pany manufactures electric ranges,
appliances, oil stoves, ranges, water
heaters, coal and wood stoves and
ranges. The Federated Trades Coun-
Gil of Milwaukee thanked the Trades
and Labor Council for assistance it
had given them in bringing the
strike to a successful conclusion.

A letter was received from Sam

No. II. This related to a plan to
make some provision to enable sick
and disabled persons to vote, that is,
those who r unable to go to the
polls but were still not absent from
the county or city. The Trades and
Labor Council several weeks ago,
after a report of the Legislative
Committee, we're opposed to the
original provisions of this measure.

intend to hold a mass meeting at
the High School February 18th for
the purpose of explaining the an
tagonistic attitude of the Regional
WPA office toward wages paid and
hours worked in Silver Bow County
on Works Progress Administration
projects. The Silver Bow Trades
and Labor Council while not official
ly going on record as sponsoring the
sending of any speakers, pledged
their support to the meeting. Chair
man Comba suggested that all dele
gates who possibly could should at
tend the meeting.

Many Of the unions, including the
Street Car Men and the Engineers
have supported the attitude of the
Silver Bow Trades and Labor Coun-
ell in its endorsement of the pro
posed reorganization of the Govern
ment by President Roosevelt and by
urging additional appropriations to
the LaFollette investigation of VIC
lation of civil rights.

Many of the other unions have
announced that they have written
to the local WPA office Directing
to any modification of the rates Of
pay and hours worked on WPA
projects.
