I know you'll agree with me
when I say there is nothing in this
whole wide world that is more
regretable. more wasteful than in
gratitude!
Every year around Thanksgiv-
ing time we are reminded to count
our blessirIgs-and most Of US do
gratefully recount the personal
gains-material and spiritual
from which we have benefited.
But the older I grow the more
convinced am that we are often
tempted to a surface show OF
gratitude. We acknowledge only
the most obvious of our blessings.
And then we do so all too infre-
quently.
The secret Of true gratitude lies
much, much deeper. It lies IN q
keen, active. day by day sense OF
appreciation. The kind Of ap-
probation that can enjoy and

serving this run. As long as these big fleets of trollers are allowed to proceed unhampered in the com- ing years as they have in the past, this run will have no chance to in- crease, in as much as there is no reasonable proof that these fleets will dcrease, while it is highly probable that the steady increase of the troll fleets will continue.
 There are many points both for and against these types of gear. One, which few people realize, is that in the fishing with glllnets, only the mature fish are taken, as the smaller. immature fish are too small to become entangled in the web and thus are free to continue unhampered On the other hand, in the fishing with troll gear, the bait, spoon or pulg plays no favor ties and any fish that feels that this wiggling object is satisfactory for his or her dinner is impaled upon the hook. There is a law stating that kings of twenty-six inches and longer may be taken and sold, all the rest to be shaken loose. Whether these immature fish. some whose mouths are badly torn, survive is something that do not profess to know. However, do know that a great number of these immature fish are caught by the trollers every year, especially in the winter months, and also a certain amount of this number are dead when brought to the surface, as their struggles make such slight movement of the poles that it goes

tirely by economics. The north bound call as Wrangell has, as you know, always been made by us during the early hours of the morning, and for that reason has been most unpopular with passen- gers and with the ships personnel, as well as being expensive in overtime and other costs.
 You are, no doubt. fully aware of the fact it is not at this time our intention to discontinue our call southbound, and it will be our endeavor, especially during tha summer months when tourists are travelling, to stay in port as long as possible. The cargo for Can adian interior points. being mostly of a non-perishable nature, will be discharged at this time.

unnotieed. Now. as far as am concerned. a king salmon is a king salmon whether he is a five pound fish or a twenty-five pound fish, and if he Is killed before he be- comes mature. the person or per sons involved are doing more harm than one who catches fish which can legally be sold on the market.
 In the western states, namely Washington. Oregon and Californ- ia. they have a problem much sim liar to ours as they have both trollers and gillnetters fishing for kings In their proposals, made by the Pacific Marine Fisheries Com mission, they made no further cuts on the gillnetters but restricted the trolling to a period from Mar. 15 until October 31. Anyone wish ing further information on this subject can obtain it by reading the December IT, 1948, issue of the Pacific Fishermen's News.
 I believe that if more eompre- hensive data were obtained of this controversial issue. and all parties involved contribute equally in the future. both the trOllers and gill netters could fish for kings and be assured of a continued profit able occupation.

Gillnetting in this area Is done in all the adjacent straits and passes around the river, in exactly the same areas that the trollers are al- lowed to fish. The king salmon nets are of such a depth that it would be prohibitive to attempt fishing on the delta of the river These fish, which are caught in May, are of excellent quality and, according to the local buyers, the finest of all for shipment in it's fresh state
 The people of Alaska have gone on record in overwhelming major ity to outlaw fish traps. which are monopoly protected by the gov ernment. Now we have one group of fishermen who, if this goes through, will have a government protected gear monopoly of king salmon in this area. simply because of this restriction of other types of gear,
 Whether this restriction of other gear in preference to troll gear will produce the desired effect of conservation, which 1t is primarily intended, is highly debatable and, as far as my own personal opinion is concerned, it will not make an iota of difference as far as con-

and voiced his sincere hope that the trollers and gillnetters could come to an agreement in their diff ferences in as much as conserya- ton must begin soon to build up the depleted run. Tn this, he stat. ed. We should both be willing to do little sacrificing. All that the gillnetters would have to do was to reconcile themselves to the fact that forever more they could not gillnet and would thus be deprived of a meager yearly average cut Of five to fifteen hundred dollars on their economy. Secondly, the gill netters should hang their gillnet. which cost a paltry thousand dol lars, up in a warehouse to rot. If the gillnetters would be willing to make such minute sacrifice. the local trollers would show their willingness to cooperate by also sacrificing. He assured me that the trollers would then be willing to cease fishing in front of town dur ing the spring run. In fact, he stated that they would be willing to go as far as Chichagof Pass.
