 of Frank I. Bell

WASHINGTON, Jan. T. = The White House announces President Roosevelt's formal acceptance of the resignation of Commissioner of Fisheries Prank T. Bell.
 The resignation becomes effective on March 25.
 Commissioner Bell wrote to Pre- sident Roosevelt that he. felt that Harry L. Hopkins, newly appointed Secretary of Commerce, should have the opportunity to select his own Bureau chiefs.
 Commissioner Bell thanked the President for the opportunity of serving under your Administration ) and promised cooperation to his successor, who as yet has not been named.
 President Roosevelt replied to Bell as follows: T appreciate your atti- tude in feeling that in assuming his new duties the Secretary of Com merce should be free to select his own immediate subordinates.

Solid Alaska Endorsement of KetChikan Man Is
 Being Formed
SAUL HAAS ALSO
 AFTER APPOINTMENT
Legislature Is Expected fo Promote Walker for
 Bell Successor

Sentiment for the appointment of Senator Norman R. Walker of Ket- chikan as U. s. Fisheries Commis- sioner, succeeding Frank T. Bell, who resigned yesterday, was form ing here today, with the legislative delegation solidly behind him and the outlook being that he would receive the unqualified support of all Alaska for the position.
 Whether this backing would be sufficiently strong to swing the ap- pointment was debatable, it being thought here considerable outside support in the States would be nec- essary in addition.
 The fisheries position is one of the major ones in the National Government, the office commanding a salary of $14,000.
 Walker, it is certain, would be well qualified for the post, legisla- tors here said. It is certain also he would accept the appointment.
 Another candidate known to be after the appointment is Saul Haas of Seattle. Collector of Customs for Washington, and the Number l po- litical supporter of Sen. Homer T. Bone.
 It seemed likely today the legis- lature as one of it's first orders of business would pass a resolution en- dorsing Sen. Walker for the fish cries appointment.
 Bells resignation was announced in Washington yesterday by Secre- tary of Commerce Harry Hopkins. He will return to private business in Washington state.

COUNCIL CONC AHEAD ON BOAT
 HARB0R PLANS
Bids Ordered Ca Ie d On Rock Bulkhead to
 Hold Fill

Juneau's city council called for 9 start of work on the citys portion of the small boat harbor last night when Mayor Harry I. Lucas was authorized to call for bids on build ing rock bulkhead at the back of the basin and was authorized further to borrow approximately $6, 900 to cover it's cost.
 The bulkhead, which will consist of 10000 yards of rock, is to be used to contain dredging spells which will be pumped on the area to form eight acres of new building lots.
 In order to obtain material dredged from the boat basin for this fill purpose, the council pro- poses to have the Army call for alternate bids on dredging, with the council to pay the difference between what bucket dredge job and one by suction dredge will cost.
 If the dipper dredge is used the material will be taken out in the channel and dumped. A suction dredge on the project would cost slightly more, City Engineer Mil ton Lagergren predicted, but not enough to make the cost to the city prohibitive.
 | City Would Sell Lots
 City revenue derived from sale of the three acres of new filled land which would be clear of buildings Give acres in the area already are occupied by structures on piling), would cover the cost of the bulkhead and fill, Lagergren said.
 Other proposals discussed by the council were filling of the section from East Tenth Street to Gold Creek at a cost of $15,000 or flll- ing the flats north of the boat harbor, which would cost an esti- mated $1O,O0O No action was taken on either plan.
 Also discussed was a plan to buy logs for the boat harbor floats
 
 and piling now, while the price IS favorable.
 Mayor Lucas will wire Delegate Anthony J. Dimond to urge action on the PWA grant for the boat harbor. The city has available S48'- 400 in bonds voted by the people.
 Breakwater Done March l
 Army engineers expect to com- plete the present work on the breakwater by March l and to commence dredging about June | The city plans to have it's nulK- head built by the time dredging starts.

DOZENS SEEK SECRETARY'S APPOINTMENT
Bartlett Endorsed; Camp. bell, Connors, Brown
 in Running

Only formally announced candl- dacy for the office of Secretary of Alaska is that of E. L. Bob" Bart lett of Fairbanks, Delegate Anthony J. Dimond notified the Governors office today.
 However, 1t was known here that at least two other candidates are prominently in the running for the appointment. They are Former Sen- ator James R. Campbell of Anchor age, recommended by the Tihrd Div ision Democratic. Committee, and James J. Connors of Juneau. at pre- sent. Collector of Customs. There was also the possibility of a maneuver by which Campbell would receive the Customs appoint ment should Connors be appointed to the Secretaryship.
 It was understood Bartlett's can- didacy had been forwarded to Ma tional Democratic Chairman James A. Farley.
 Endorsement for Bartlett came today also from A. A. Shonbeck, former Secretary of the Territorial Committee, who wired from Seattle
 Campbell's endorsement came on the heels of Bartlett's and the An- chorage mans candidacy may be able to overtake that of Bartlett, who was formerly Delegate Dimonds secretary. Bartlett also was on the other offices in the Territory. He is staff of the FILA here and has held mine operator at Miller House in the Fourth Division.
 Others reported in the running for the Secretaryship, with varying degrees of backing were: Herbert Brown. Mayor of Anchor age.
 Joe Holman, of Seward, Third Division Senator.
 Tom Price. U. s. Commissioner at Anchorage.
 Ed Coffey, Anchorage, Thrid Div ision Representative. Leo Rogge, Fairbanks, Fourth Div ision Representative.
 M E. Monagle, Juneau attorney Victor o. Rivers. Senator from Fourth Division Fairbanks.
 John E. Pegues, Secretary of the Alaska Planning Council.

roo SUSPICIOUS To TALK

They were suspicious, and in spite of Apache guides Ingstad had taken from the New Mexican reservation little was learned directly from them.
 Ingstad was interested in them primarily from an ethnological standpoint. During a period when he was Danish Governor of Green land and Spitsbergen, he had con- cluded that certain tribe of Arctic natives called caribou eaters were akin to the Apaches. The latter he believed had come south centuries earlier
 Ingstad learned that an Apache woman once had told white resi- dent that red-headed white man with "startlingly blue eyes" roamed with the Host Tribe" until he was slain in 1922 at about the age of 50. Cowboys also had seen white man among them. Could it be pos sible, Ingstad asked in letter tc Commissioner John Collier of the bureau, that this man was the Nc Cormis boy kidnapped 57 years ear Tier?

CuIbert |. Olson, Governor of California, Acts on
 Campaign Promise
RELEASED MAN IS TO
 LOCATE, SAN FRANCISCO
Parade Planned for Sum- day Over Same Route
 as Taken in 1916

SACRAMENTO, Cal, Jan. "A full and unconditional pardon has been given Tom Mooney and he has been of- ficially released from San Quentin Prison.
 Culbert L. Olson, Califor- nia's first Democratic Cover nor in AS years, chose the day after his inaugural ball to fulfill in the State Capital what amounted to a virtual promise to grant Mooney's petition for full pardon, which in effect exonerated Mooney of the 1916 San Francisco Preparedness Day bombings of which he was convicted and sentenced to death, though subsequently the sentence was coHsmuted to life imprisonment on the urgent request of President Woodrow Wilson.
 Moneys first act was to visit Warren K. Billings, who also was convicted but be- cause of a previous felony conviction cannot be pardon ed unless the state Supreme Court so recommends.
 Leaves Prison
 Mooney, who claimed he and Billings were convicted on perjured testimony left San Quentin Prison at dawn with the warden for an automobile trip to the Capital City.
 He spent the last day in prison exuberantly receiving visitors and packing up. His wife and sister joined him.
 Mooney said he. would establish his residence in San Francisco.
 Mrs. Mooney, who defended her husband throughout the years, said:
 These g years have been moth-eaten life to me. They have been something like cloak of which there Is little left now but tatters. However, even they amount to something. I have been crying three days, not for sorrow but for joy"
 Mellowed by Prison
 Mooney is no longer the dynam- ic bettle- -browed direct-actionist he was. The g prison years had worn him down and mellowed his philo- sophy. But his spirit was unbroken
 Whether Mooney will be fire brand in workers ranks has been on the minds of some of those who opposed his release
 Mooney's friends plan parade Sunday up Market Street over the same fateful route which made his- tory when the Preparedness Day bomb killed 10 and wounded 40.

 on Oregon Coast

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Jan. 2. = Swollen tides, stirred by ocean storms, have hurled giant ground swells against this Southern Cali fornia coast, causing untold dam age
 Several houses were washed out to sea and the surf battered scores of other homes to shambled ruins. Many hundreds of homes not to- tally wrecked were seriously dam aged.
 Streets have been undermined and stores and residences flooded with an undetermined number of estab- nshments experiencing flo d d floors and stocks.
 Fifteen persons were injured on the liner Lurline as that vessel en- countered fifty-foot waves that slammed the ships passengers to the decks.
 The Lurline was just out of Col den Gate from San Francisco, en- route to Honolulu when the freak storm was struck, taking terrified passengers unawares. All passengers swele ordered indoors. but many were injured by sliding furniture and by falling, according to radio advices.
 The highest waters of the year flowed far inland at Manhattan Beach and struck Santa Monica, 185 feet inland for normal tide line.
 On the Oregon coast, five lives were lost as the unusual surf battered the exposed lower Ore gon shore and beach towns.

GOVERNOR 10 OPEN ALASKA
 LEGISLATURE
House, Senate fo Convene Monday-PdrfY Caucus
 Set Tomorrow

Gov. John w. Troy personally will open the Fourteenth Territorial Legislature Monday morning. Attor- ney General James s. Truitt an- nounced today.
 Tn the absence of the Secretary of Alaska, Edward w. Griffin, who died last week, it falls to the Gov ernor to open the session, Truitt said. Gov. Troy said late this after noon he would do so.
 Under present plans the House of Representatives will convene at 10 o'clock in the morning and the Senate at II. In each Chamber the Governor will call the legislators to order, and after the roll call, administering of oaths and selection of temporary officers, will turn the gavel over to the Speaker Pro Tenn in the House and the President Pro Tenn of the Senate.
 Out of the confusion resulting from the Secretary's sudden death on the eve of the legislative session, it is expected the present Legislature will enact measure providing for succession in such cases should they arise in the future. There is no provision in present statutes cov- ering the situation.
 Organization of the Legislature is expected to be completed at tomor- rows caucus meetings, both to be held in the legislative chambers at 2 o'clock. At that time party en- dorsement for Senator Norman R. Walker of the First Division to be President of the Senate and Repre- sentative Howard Lyng of the Sec ond as Speaker of the House will be voted. No opposition to Walker is apparent, with Senator Henry Roden, formerly considered a can didate for the Presidency, being one of the Ketchikan Senator's packers.
 In the House, there is possibility opposition to Representative Howard Lyng may center around Represen- tative H. H. McCutcheon of Anchor age. who is serving his fourth con- secutive term. The Third Division. hotel corridor rumor has it, will put McCutcheon forward for the posi- tion.
 At the caucus. final unofficial &C., ton will be taken on selection of a clerk, secretary and other employees in both houses. A committee on permanent help will be appointed to actaully hire the aides.

HOST TRIBE" OF kpA(HES BELIEVED LOCATED;
 RULERS; MEN SUBJE( TIED
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.--Weird as an Arabian Nights tale is a story from below the Rio Grande of the
 lost. Triben of Apache Indians, yic- tims of Arnerics $ campaign to make the great west safe for democracy.
 Several seemingly authoritative sources have attested that the tribe exists in a state of starving sav- agery 200 miles south of Douglas Ariz. Recently a Norwegian eth nologist, Helge Ingstad, presented such incontrovertible testimony about the fugitive band that the Indian Bureau is seriously consid- ering steps which could be taken to restore them in New Mexico with other members of the tribe.
 Their history goes back to 1865 when Geronimo led them across the Mexican border to escape U. s. soldiers. As they fled, so one story with somewhat less authenticity relates, they killed Charles McCor- mis, New Mexican territorial judge, and his wife, and kidnapped their six-year-old son.
 For a score Of years Americas s incomparable native cavalry wan- dered along the unpoliced border area south of the Rio Grande. Then Geronimo surrendered and most of the tribe was settled on the Mes calero reservation in New Mexico. One small band refused to surren- der, hiding instead in the Sierra Madras Mountains, from where pres ent tales of them come, and where Ingstad reported seeing a group of five. Four were women, one a man, the latter bedraggled and ob- viously browbeaten and abject. The leader of the five was woman.
