New Fishing
Regulations
Proposed
WalIgren Introduces Drds-
tiC Alaska Fisheries
Bill in Senate

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27-A bin
to regulate fishing and conserve
fishery resources in Alaska, which
would extend regulatory power to
offshore as well as coastal waters,
was introduced yesterday by Sena-
or Mons Wallgren (D-Wash).
Wallgren said the measure re-
places a former similar bill and
would give the fisheries officials
power to effectively deal with jap
anese or other interests which
threaten American fisheries. This
would be accomplished, he ex-
claimed, by extending regulatory
powers to the offshore waters where
it has been charged the japanese
interferred with American fishing
rights.
The new measure requires the
director of the Fish and Wildlife
ervice to make necessary scienti-
fic Investigations and adopt proper
regulations. 1t divides the coastal
waters into fish areas and requires
zach fisherman have license, but
provides that the director can not
refuse to give any fisherman a
license unless he is an alien.
The measure further require S
that each vessel and net must have
a permit and each fish trap and
oyster cultivation area location a
license. 1t authorizes the director
to restrict types and number of
vessels and nets and to limit the
catch. The director is also author
lied to specify the time, methods
and extent of fishing.
When the director reduces or
restores the number of fishing
boats, nets and traps in an area.
those who have actually been fish
ing in the area during the past
three years shall have the first
chance to obtain permits or leases.

Senator Burton X. Wheeler, Am
