erS, whose welfare requires industrial

Among fair-minded men and
women everywhere have found an
overwhelming demand for immedi-
ate revision of the law. There is
a general feeling that this must be
accomplished before We can hope
to have a greatly accelerated in
dustrial activity and consequent re-
duction of unemployment. Best of
all, it would be the means of re-
storing mutual confidence and re-
spect between employees and en-
ployers and again set them working
harmoniously in behalf of general
prosperity.
Il believe that members of Con-
gress in both houses are ready and
anxious for an opportunity to amend
this law. They feel that it has
failed in it's purpose because of de-
fects in the act and because of its
faulty and biased administration.
The time has come for constructive
revision"
The Labor Board controversy
broke out in the House yesterday
during consideration of the bill ap-
propriating 1888 ,809, TOO for about
40 independent Federal agencies
Some members wanted to elimi-
nate a s3,o39,ooo appropriation for
the Labor Board, but they were
beaten down with the argument that
any attempt to curtail the boards
functions should be by separate
legislation.
The full sum for the board was

DEVICE WILL PERMIT
MINK ESCAPE TRAP

Wildlife agent, Glen Collins in the
Fairbanks district. has devised a
means of releasing mink that be-
come imprisoned in the fish traps
the natives set in the lakes and
streams. The traps are woven of
willow roots and have funnel open
ings at the end. Mink following fish
often get into the enclosure and
soon drown because they cannot rise
to the surface. Most of the mink
that are caught in this manner are
taken in the summer months while
their skins are unprime.
Collins device for allowing the
mink to escape from the enclosure
without also letting the fish out. is
a simple well of willow shoots The
well is attached to the top of the
trap and is built to rise above the
surface of the water. Mink, in this
type trap, can escape by means of
the well and the fish in the lower
part of the enclosure are retained.
The native trap made of willow
shoots. is frequently known as the
blackfish trap.
