THREE WRANGELL MEN HOME
 FROM BRISTOL BAY FISHING

Andrew Prusi, Charles Jussila aGd Louis F. Paul returned on the AL aska Tuesday morning from Bristol Bay where they fished for the Nakat Packing Company.
 "The beginning of the season was very gloomy states MT. Prusi, but it closed with such big runs that most of the fishermen did very well"
 To MT Prusi the trip by airplane from Bristol Bay to Anchorage was over the most beautiful and majes- tic scenery he has ever known. The trip in to Bristol Bay the latter part of May was made by plane, but the weather was cloudy so the pilot flew over canyons. On the return trip the weather being bright and clear the plane flew over the noun tain ranges.
 The Wrangell men, although long accustomed to beautiful scenery, found the view from the air, ma aies- tic and wonderful beyond descrip- tion.

New Hampshire People
 On Camera Hunt Trip

MT. and Mrs. w. R. oPetersou, their sons Walter and John, took passage on the Hazel B No. ? Tues day morning to spend several weeks at the George Ball ranch. Thelr main purpose is to photograph the wildlife of the region for use in a lecture tour next winter.
 The Petersons, whose home is in New Hampshire, have been in Alas ka since early in the season. They have sought out of the way places and have secured many fine pie lures. Just before leaving the West ward for Wrangell enroute to the Stikine they spent ten days at Tus- tamena Lake, flying there from An chorage.
 Mir Peterson feels that they ob- tained in the Tustamena region some of their finest shots of moose, bear and mountain sheep. Two u1- usual pictures were obtained. One was a fine photo of a brown bear feeding, the shot snapped about 30 feet from the huge animal. Anoth CT was the red salmon run up small river which connects with the lake.
 His main objective in the Stikine trip is to obtain some fine speci- mems of the black rams of the up- per country.

OF TAXPAYERS
 GRATIFYING

Tax response has been most grat- flying this year, reports L. B. Chis- holm, city clerk and treasurer.
 Personal and property tax assess ments amount to approximately $l6,- 900, one-half of which is payable by August 1st. Less than one dozen taxpayers have failed to make pay ment, states Mr. Chisholm, and these, with one exception, are small accounts.
 A number of tax accounts have been paid in full and to date ap- proximately $10,00O, or 60 per cent of the roll, has been paid.
 Those who have not paid the first half will now have to pay the 15| per cent penalty imposed by the tax ordinance. as the city council made no provision for extension of time this year. All taxpayers, however, Mir Chisholm said, who were run. ming close to the border line for de-I linquent tax date, were notified per- sonally in addition to the regularly, mailed notices.
 Due to this personal notification about thirty accounts were paid in the last two days before taxes be- came delinquent.

:: FISH DOCK NEWS ::
Compiled by Al Cramer)

(Complled by Al Cramer)
 Fish purchases over the dock in the past week by A. R. Brueger and the ARB Packing Company include the following:
 1O,642 lbs. large red kings, 1,336,- lbs, small reds, 10, 271 lbs. white salmon, 3O,577 lbs. echoes, 59O sock eyes, 381 echoes, 76,219 pinks, 4,- 294 chums.
 Brueger this week shipped tie"- ces mild cure salmon anG put 1297 lbs. white kings in the freezer.
 Indications today point to a fair run of fish to continue. Reports are that the tenders are loading fairly good catches, considering that there has been some very bad weather for the past week.
 At present the outlook for a good run of silver salmon is very poor as there shuld be a good run on at all the trolling grounds by now. There may be a late run which will make some good fishing for the gillnetters.

KetChikan Opposes
 Mail Route Change

Proposed mail contracts which would eliminate Ketchikan from the route to the west coast Of Prince of Wales island six months every year were protested today by the Ketcni- kan Chamber of Commerce, reports the Ketchikan Chronicle of last We'd nesday. The proposed contracts, Tor which bids have been called, would provide service from Wrangell six months year, from Ketchikan the other six months. Currently, both WrangelI and Ketchikan are on the schedule.
 The chamber resolution points out that such a schedule was in ef- feet some 15 or 20 years ago and later eliminated because it did aot give the service needed The resp lution also pointed out the import ance that in the delivery of mail, the development and growth of bus mess, and the safety of passengers and personnel that boats of proper capacity, equipment and accommo- dation, be required in any and all mail contracts"
 The resolution asks postal authori- ties to cooperate in "the correction| of this apparent discrepancy.
 The Wrangell Chamber of Com merce has hot met as a body since the opening of the fishing season, all matters being taken care of Dy committee chairman. However, it isl confidently predicted that in short time a Wrangell resolution will com pletely "o1t-resolute" anything our neighbor on the south can offer.
