librarian, Thursday afternoon,
commended Coram and their Ii
brarian, Mrs. Peggy Brown for
having lost no books during the
first months. Mrs. Brown has re-
ceived no financial return dur
ing the past months for allowing
her Peggy Lou shop to be used for
library purposes. She deserves
thanks of the community for her
unselfishness in the matter.
One question not settled is
whether the Coram Boosters are
actually the library's sponsors. No
mention is made in the clubs min
utes, though when the library
was first obtained for Coram last
fall, interested parties contracting
officials in Kalispell, asked for a
branch library in the name of the
Coram Boosters club, who were
interested in the community hav-
ing library facilities.
For the information of Coram
residents, the so-called line story
used each week on the Coram
page is not ordinarily written by
the Coram correspondent, who by
the way has been doing an excell-
ent job. MIR

THE OLD DAYS

The first permit ever issued for
an auto to enter Central Park
brought high price at auction the
other day. The permit was issued
to Curtis P. Brady in 1892 It speci-
fed that sin accepting this, the
holder agrees to exercise the great
est care to avoid frightening horses
or cause any danger or annoyance
to other users of the park"
Who can remember away back
when horses snorted, reared and
bolted at the sight of an auto? Back
to us comes the recollection of q
boyhood when we used to start driv-
ing Charlie Atwood's big black
horse out of Ward street into Dav.
export avenue and, seeing a Pope.
Hartford in the distance, turn
around and headed the other way.
If the horse had seen it first the

Dear Sir:
The papers tell me of confer
ences in Washington on Freedom
Train" This is train to be sent all
over the United States to display
hundreds of the most important
documents in American history. in
GLIDING the Declaration of indie
pendence, the Bill of Rights and
Lincoln's Emancipation Proclama-
ton. The purpose, you say, is ito
reawaken in the American people
the loyalty it is known to have for
the American way of life" Your
conferences are being held to get
ideas on the best way to make this
idea dramatic, intensive and mill
tant."
Well, Mr.. Clark, all hope is that
for once in this country we have
stumbled on an important crusade
which has within itself SO much
natural appeal that it will not have
to be linked up with flap doodle,
ballyhoo, baloney and the usual pa
rades of bathing beauties, movie
cuties, radio comics, etc. hope the
hallowed documents testifying to
the struggles and accomplishments
of America will not be ushered into
any American community with the
customary escort of girl drum ma
jors, amusement world clowns and
movie colony wives PLUS assorted
husbands.
This Freedom Train" bearing
the originals of papers so vital to
America and tracing it from its
bloody birth through it's many pain
full struggles is sacred thing. 1t is
too fine to need any self-exploita-
tons and professional monkey

LAND ALONG HIGHWAY OPEN TO SETTLEMENT

WASHINGTON - Secretary o- Interior Krug this week ordered 2,75O,O00 acres of unsurveyed pub lie lands in Alaska opened to home stead settelment by World War II veterans effective October 2. The land lies along both sides of the Alaska Highway.
 Krug said that under regulations, veterans priority on the land will extend to February 2, after which it will be subject to settlement by the general public. Priority rights for veterans already have been provided in connection with the

 He favored early ocean seiniAg with registration of seiners. lie also suggested that a quota system might be feasible for the two main types of gear - seines and traps.
 Thompson said the FWS has gig- en thought to a quota system, bul its application is difficult. It would correspond more closely to the herring quota plan, he said, but still presents an entirely different problem because if herring and halibut are not taken one yeae. they remain to be taken the next.

FISHERIES HEARINGS FOR SOUTHEAST ALASKA
 CONCLUDE IN KETCHIKAN

Annual fisheries hearings con eIuded in Ketchikau Monday after noon and Fish and Wildlife Sery- ice officials who conducted them immediately prepared to leave for the north. The hearings Monday completed those for Southeastern Alaska, those for the northern part of the Territory resuming October 9. at Anchorage.
 Much of the discussion at the Ketchikan hearings was about gear.
 A. W. Brindle, of the Ward Cove Packing Go, injected a new sug- gesdon when he proposed that the FWS take a representative fishing area-such as Boca de Quadra - and close it completely to fishing to study runs to determine which were most productive
 He said he mentioned Quadra as a representative area because it lends itself well to experiments as il has early chums and large streams fed by melting snow, but that other areas might be just as practical for an experiment.
 Studies of runs in such a closed area, he said, might yield the ans

 Briudle's reference to Quadra was opposed by O. s. Olsen and Nick Berkoyich who asked chat trap owners also sacrifice for the experiment.. Brindle said he did not wish to start controversy over gear. but did wish to start something new and get away from the old, time-worn system of spec Glatiou on salmon runs.
 After John Smith told of large schools of salmon entering Quadra with one tide and leaving on the next, Brindle said Smith's point may eliminate Quadra from such an experiment. Seton Thompson. Chief of Alaska fisheries for the Fish and Wildlife Servce, said he would give the idea some thought

were only 10 or 15.
 Mccall said that now the situa ton is reversed. Traps are cleaning up fisn in Alaska and local fisher men are compelled to go south.
 He opposed hateheries and sug- gested that Che FWS use the mon ey for hateheries to place more watchmen on streams.
 He also favored early opening of outside waters Cape sOmmaney South1 to seining asked the FWS to get copies of it's regulations for all boat shippers i. who otherwise unintentionally fish in closed areas, favored the August 9 open ing and opening of all areas to fishermen then if streams are ade- quately seeded He asked why fish ermen cant accompany FWS of- ficials on their stream surveys.
 Thompson said one fisherman consistently has made the surveys and it could be worked out so others also could accompany the officials, but that he had been led to believe the fishermen themselves y ere too busy fishing to make such trip.
 Would Deter Violation
 Mccall told of an alleged ineid- ent whereby a fisheries patrolman had waited for a seiner to make several sets in one place. then had arrested him for fishing in a closed area. Thompson asked for facts iu the ease. stating ii has been our policy to deter violations"
 Mccall also protested that watchmen in the past had refused to let boats anchor in closed areas, citing Fillmore Inlet and Anchor Pass as examples.
 A license fee of $10O for fisher men from the states was proposed by him. He alleged some fishermen pay no license and that all fish buyers should be compelled to make fishermen. show their license.
 Joe Krause urged employment of more stream patrols to protect the early runs and favored the August 9 opening because it would let the July run get by. He unheld the present 5O-foot limitation on sein- CTS, saying his observation has been that the larger the boat and the better the gear the quicker the fish are depleted.
 For Uniform Opening
 A mid-week closure of hours doesn't serve it's purpose, Krause said, and causes confusion and violations. He favored a 3-dayI weekend closure. Similarly, heI said, a uniform opening would a. void the violations which kill off early runs.
 Krause asked that the FWS not overlook small streams becausei
