SIXTEEN MILLION DOLLARS
 SPENT PROTECTING FISH RUNS

More than 16 million dollars have been spent during the last ten years in protecting the salmon and hall- but runs on the Pacific Coast of North America. according to study recently completed by Dr. E. D.. Clark. of the Association of Pacific Fisheries.
 The annual expenditures for the regulation. conservation. propaga- tion. and study of the salmon and halibut in Alaska. British Columbia. Washington. Oregon. and California waters has averaged S1.610.Go0. During this period Dr. Clark points out.
 More than half this expenditure covering the entire North American Pacific Coast. has been spent on per petuating the salmon run in |. s. waters. pr. Clark says. More than S4.200.00O has been spent in Alaska alone during this period to preserve the run in these ten years. A large part of this money finds it's way to Alaska merchants. Due io the more difficult conseryations job in states where the encroachments of civilization have been more severe. the total expenditure in the Pa cific States has been somewhat lar ger than in Alaska, amounting to S4.725,00O during this period
 The true significance Of these figures is seen when it is realized that the salmon fishermen and pack CTS have paid taxes during this per iod. not only to support the Terri torial government, but also to con serve and increase this valued nat ural resource. The stringent regula- tiOns of the federal government have reduced the total employment by restricting the amount of fish ing. The fishermen, as well as the packers. have made sacrifices to pre- serve this resource. If. at any time. alien fishermen. not subject 10 the regulation of our government are permitted to fish for these salmon in extra territorial waters. the sac rifices which our fishermen and cannery operators have made will not be sufficient to conserve this resource, and the industry, which is the main support of the sea coast towns of Alaska, will not be able to continue"

tional politico-geographic handi cap. Kentucky has only a hand full of electoral votes, and the prospect of capturing big block of electoral votes-predicated on native-son support by the home folks-is the chief reason why the Democrats have so often picked a New Yorker for stand ard bearing honors.
 Furthermore, the party hasn't gone as far south as Kentucky to choose a standard bearer sim ce long before the Civil war. Woodrow Wilson was a native of Virginia and for that reason was hailed by some good Democrats as a southerner, but he was a resident of New Jersey when nominated.

Season Always Open

Season Always Open
 All this presidential speculating is pretty long-range, but the can didate guessing season is seldom closed in Washington. Of course, the outlook for Barkley or any other. potential Democratic presi- dential nominee is contingent up on whether President Roosevelt himself is drafted" for a third term.
 The Kentucky senator has been staunch Rooseveltian, with a reputed talent for keeping on good terms with anti-administ- ration Democrats even during the fiercest stages of the battle over the Presidents Supreme Court enlargement bill. He was quoted recently in an interview as being for "the ad- vancement of liberalism" as a Democratic party objective. That wos no radical bombshell for ev- en the most conservative ~iti- clans. When was there a Demo- cratic, or for that matter, Re publican aspirant for the presi dency who didn't contend he was a liberal, notwithstanding the thousand and one definitions of the term?
