Hickman Says Oriental Labor Has
To Go To Protect Industry

kETCHIkAN = J. r. Hickman,
pioneer of Alaska, former early day
member of the Territorial Senate,
former Territorial Fish Commissioner
and inventor of the floating fish
trap, business man and banker of
Ketchikan said:
ut is up to the Salmon Industry
to clean house. If the industry does
MT do it the people of the Territory
must
when Oriental labor is gone,
picket lines and labor troubles will
also disappear.
Hickman was for many years Su-
perintendent of the Alaska Packers
Association cannery at Loring, near
Ketchikan, but is not now active in
canneries.
Change Needed Now
Hickman further said: Times
change and people change. Out worn
systems must be overthrown and dis
carded. Oriental cannery labor was
right so years ago. Now, with lar
ger local population, both native
and whites, with modern plants and
with labor unions controlled outside
of the Territory and labor rack
eteers seeking to enrich themselves
at the expense of the Territory a
change is called for.
"Cannery work nowadays is white
mans work and draws white mans
pay. Local residents, both white and
native, are competent and reliable.
If they are not here in sufficient
numbers, young men from colleges
would be glad to spend their vaca-
lions in Alaska, earning good
wages"
Picket Lines Formed
The statement of Hickman came
as the CLIO Cannery Workers Union
threw picket lines Friday around all
Ketchikan canneries and one can
merry, the Beegle Packing Company,
one of the largest here, announced
plans to close for the season.
Many Filipinos belong to the CLIO
local here which is affiliated with
the locals i'm Seattle and elsewhere.

FINES
ADJUDGED IN
TRAP CASES

Through its attorney. r E. Rob
ertson of Juneau, the Skinner &
Eddy Corporation last night entered
a plea Of guilty By wire TO charges
filed in the United States Commits
sioner's Court at Wrangen of fish
ing their Point Barrie and Point
Boulder traps during the seasonal
closed period.
The traps are located in the Sum
ner straits area. which was not
opened until yesterday. One trap is
charged to have been fishing since
July 10 and the other since July L.
Commissioner Richard suratt this
morning adjudged one thousand dol
lar fines ON each trap.
U. S. Deputy Marshal James Mol
an and Captain DanieI Drotning, of
the bureau of fisheries patrol boat
Auklet based at Wrangell flew out
to the traps on Wednesday and post
ed seizure notices. James Loyett and
Harry Phillips were left at the traps
as deputies
The officers brought in the Two
Watchmen from each trap, Walter
Day, George Lindsey, Aubrey
Schmidt and Olaf Gordon. The men
were placed under bond of $3.50 aud
released on their own reeognizance
until bond had been posted by Skin
ner & Eddy.
After adjudging the fines this
morning the commissioner dismissed
the charges against the watchmen
and the traps will be released upon
payment of the fines.

Game Refuge Will Not
Extend Across Island

The Chamber Of Commerce this
week received a letter from ]. NJ.
Wyekoff, district forest ranger, re
garding a readjustment in the lines
of the proposed Wrangel Game Re
fuge.
As voted BY the chamber after the
matter had been under eonsidera-
ton Tor several weeks, the boun-
daries of refuge we're asked to
include the entire northern section
of the island from ZimoYia strait
across to Eastern Passage, more
commonly called Back Channel in
Wrangell and down the island to
Chiehagof Point
As there was some opposition TO
that boundary, Mr.. Wyckoff en-
closed a sketch map showing alter
nate boundaries. Members of the
chamber decided to ask that the
boundaries be changed so as to run
from Point Highfield across the is
land to the Zimoyia watershed and
as far down the island as Pats
Greek.
This throws the back ehanlelI
area open to hunting as desired byI
those opposing establishment of theI
refuge across the island.

having a large Filipino membership.
Conrad Espe, International Vice
President of the CIO Cannery Work
ers and Agricultural Workers Union
here from Seattle, denied that the
present picketing is dispute of jur-
isdiction and he also denied the Sal
mon Industry's statements that pick
citing is to force employment of more
help from the outside at the expense
of local workers
Espe said: 1.-The Cannery Work
ers Unions from Portland and Seat
tie have agreed with resident unions
not to increase quotas"
Plants Must Close
w. c. Arnold, for the Salmon In
dustry said: IF those plants relying
entirely on local help cannot secure
their help, they will have no choice
but to close, they certainly cannot
afford to comply with the exorbi-
tant and illegal demands of the CLIO.
If the plants using local help are
forced to close, then Oriental can
merry workers from Seattle will have
a monopoly on cannery labor. guess
that is what they want"
The salmon fishing season in Ket-
chikan opened Saturday and closes
mid-August, but it is not likely that
any of the plants will operate until
the current dispute is settled.
