 REGARDING FISH RUN
 IN WRANGELL AREA

Although a report from Juneau reports that operators were con suited regarding closing of this area, and extensions granted to September 2. in the southern area. A. R. Brueger. local operator Of the Farwest-WmngelI Company said today. q cannot understand the reason for closing this area.
 Mir. Brueger said that fishing has improved greatly in this area. having packed 30.O00 cases since the last closing. or in the last s days of fishing He added further. that yesterday was one Of his big gest days yet at the cannery with 35.O00 seine fish and 26.00O trap fish caught Wednesday. All the fish were obtained in the north Clarence Strait and Sumner Strait areas - affected by the closing.
 Mir. Brueger sUated that he had in no way been contacted by the Fish and WildHfe Service in re- gard to fish showing in this area. which is improving all of the time and said he cannot concur with the "operators" who agreed with the F&WS in Juneau that all areas other than the southern district were having a poor showing of fish.
 Local opinion was at the boiling point regarding closure of this dis trict. Business men and Chamber of Commerce members who were scheduled to go to Juneau yester- day to be in on the meeting with Fisheries officials, but who were prevented from going by weather, felt that this area was not proper ly represented and is being rankly discriminated against - in favor of larger and more powerful oper- ators who have holdings to the south.
 This afternoon a petition was being circulated protesting the closing and asking an extension CO., inciding with that of the southern district Chamber of Commerce President Thor Hofstad will. fly to Juneau in the morning to present the petition to the F&WS officials.
