Commercial fishing in Alaskan
waters will be severely restricted
during 1910. it was announced
Saturday by the department of
interior.
Salmon quotas will be cut so
per cent. 20 fishtrap sites will be
abolished, and the herring catch
will be limited.
The new regulations give pref
erenee to Alaskan natives, and
only 300 American fishermen will
be allowed in the northern waters
this year.
Restrictions were made because
small run of fish is expected
during 1940-a natural cycle, every
fifth year the run is far below
normal.
The regulations allow use Of
only 700 boats, employing 1850
fishermen, in the Bristol Bay
area. Last summer 1,20S boats
were working there.
To provide for escape of pink
salmon. a closed period of 60
hours per week will be enforced
in the Prince William Sound area
and Southeastern Alaska, except
in the Yakutat and Stikine dis
tricts.
Commercial herring fishing has
been prohibited in Southeastern
Alaska, except for gill-nets and for
bait. Herring limits were also set

refunding of s1s.594. 900 outstand-
Ing bonds. Conservatives" Rob-
ert e. Healy and George c. Math-
ews favored allowing It to sell
bonds not only for refunding pur-
poses, but to raise $4,000. 900 for
new construction. Chairman Jer-
ONE Frank cast the deciding vote
down the middle. He joined Healy
and Mathews to permit the re-
funding. then strung along with
Eicher and Henderson to block
the proposed new s10.ooo,o0o bond
issue.
Observation-Disclosures Is that
this major split carried right down
through the ranks of the agency's
department heads and junior Of
ficials. The SEC was a house
thoroughly divided against itself
on this question. The disagree
ment Is all the more significant
since every member and employee
OF the commission was chosen by
President Roosevelt or his APP
pointees and might therefore be
expected to be reasonably har-
monious in a matter of policy.
