NO CONFLICT ON
 FISHING. RIGHTS
 AT KARLUk RES

Don c. Foster, Alaska Native Ser vice Director, has returned to Ju- neau from an observation and in- spection" trip through large part of the Territory concerned with law and order problems in Alaska, having in mind recommendations for their eventual control.
 MT Foster was accompanied by Louis c. Mueller, Chief Special En- forcement Officer for the Alaska Native Service, who joined Foster at Anchorage after having been for sometime at Karluk, Kodiak Island, keeping an eye on the sit uation there with regard to fishing operations at the Karluk reserva- ton.
 MT. Mueller said that the Karluk situation developed better than might have been expected" There was little friction, he said, over fishing rights. About 25 permits were issued by the Karluk council to resident fishermen only More permits are expected to be applied for. Nonresident fishermen did fish inside the reservation waters. but on only two or three occasions which were evidently pure acci- dent-did their operations conflict with the use of beach seines by the reservation natives. At no time did the situation develop to point where legal steps could be consider ed necessary.
 On their trip. the two officials went to Circle, where they inspect ed conditions following the recent unparalleled flood Heavy damage was sustained by the village and the ANS school buildings, MT. Eos ter said. Many buildings, including the school, were badly crushed by ice. However, considerable recon struction work has already taken place in the village.
 MT. Foster commented on the excellent condition of the road maintained by the Alaska Road Commission between Fairbanks and Circle. The two men reported a large herd, of about 2.oo0 caribou, crossing the road in front of them near Eagle Pass.

Mining Measure
 Of Importance k
 Introduced, 5enaie

WASHINGTON, July 9.--Mining companies could not be required to repair losses in capital value under a bill by Senator McCarran D.- Nev.)
 McCarran said today the bill, in troduced Saturday,, is intended to stabilize mining stock values by forestalling any administrative tink- ering.'''
 It would prevent any Fe d CT a l agency from requiring the reduction of capital value on account of de- pletion or insisting that the con- pany set up sinking fund for the redemption of it's capital.
 McCarran said in a statement that it is settled law that, with wasting asset industies, such as mines, pay ment of dividends out of net profits is proper accounting and a proper corporate practice. The courts have heI. he said, that a mining com pany is not required to set up, out of it's m lining profits, a sinking fund for the redemption of its capital.

COAL MINE AT POINT BARROW SUPPL WING THIRD OF FUEL NEEDS

Point Barrow's FSkimo-manned experimental coal mine last year produced approximately one-third of that Arctic Coast community's fuel needs, ATS tons, it was disclosed here today by Edward Burnell, man. ager of the mine for the Alaska Native Service.
 Barrow fuel needs, including those of the ANS facilities there, have been estimated at 1,500 tons yearly, which amount MT. Burnell is con- fident will be produced as soon as adequate equipment is available on the job. Production for the previous year was approximately 100 tons.
 MT. Burnell, who has been in charge of the mine for two years, is in Juneau for about three weeks working on a program of future re- quiroments of the mining experi- ment. He plans to return directly to Barrow, after completing his efforts here to secure needed equipment.
 His first immediate concern on return to Barrow will be construc- tion of an airfield to serve the mine
 The Barrow coal mining project can be operated only in wintertime, when coal produced can be sledded over the, frozen ground to the com munity, 70 miles away. Tractor and other equipment planned to be de- livered to Barrow last summer got no further than Nome, MT. Burnell declared, yet the mine was able to deliver a considerable portion of the community's fuel needs to Barrow. With sufficient equipment, the mine should be able to meet all the will lage's requirements.
 The mining experiment was under taken by tho ANS with technical advice from the U. s. Bureau of Mines and with funds made avail able by the Division of Territories and Island Possessions of the De- partment of the Interior. It was designed to relieve Barrow Eskimos from dependence for fuel on pitch formed by seepage of oil from near by pools. The pitch reserves are now in depleted condition, MT. Burnell said.
