officers, six Ketchikan men were
arrested Tuesday, two on felony
charges involving bribery, the rest
for taking fish in closed area.
U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Regional Director Clarence Rhode,
who participated in the arrests, to-
day released the further informa-
ton that the seine boat Rolling
Wave" of Ketchikan was seized
yesterday by F.W.S. agents, and is
being held in custody pending libel
action against it.
Former stream guard John Lamb
is being held in Federal jail today
after arraignment on charges OF
accepting brides for allowing the
take of salmon from prohibited
areas. Bond was fixed at $4,000.
Joe Patterson, well known Ket-
chikan businessman, was arrested
on charges of bribing Federal
officer. Crew members of the
Rolling Wave" were taken into
custody on Illegal fishing charges
during raids by Government offic-
ers Monday and Tuesday.
Lamb, according to Rhode, was
employed by the Territorial De-
partment Of Fisheries to aid the
Fish and Wildlife Service in patrol
operations. He served for the past
two seasons as a Streamguard in
the Boca de Quadra area, south OF
Ketchikan, on assignment by the
FW.S. Enforcement authority con-
ferred by the Government placed
him in the category of a Federal
officer, even though compensation
was not by the Fish and Wildiife
Service.
There are times when we get
pretty discouraged in attempts to
safeguard our No. l industry"
Rhode stated, especially when we
run into a deal like this.
obviously, we cannot tolerate
completely by anyone employed to
protect the fishery and we do not
expect to do so. Neither will we
tolerate bribery offers by fishermen,
such as is alleged here. We have
a good bunch of boys this year,
better equipped for the job, ano
we are making good progress TO-
ward observance of regulations
For the most part, we have had
better cooperation from the fisher
men and fewer arrests than last
year. Violation of conservation
laws is properly becoming more I'M
popular as the public learns OF is
implications.
I'VE are not at liberty yet to
oivulge full details of this oper-
ation," Rhode stated, "but when
the story can be told it will reveal
some rather startling facts on the
extent of organized illegal fishing
activities, and should convince any
sceptical individuals that the Fed
eral Government can offer some
effective organized enforcement OPP
erations.
agents of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation, the U. S. Marshals
Office, and the Fish and Wildlife
Service worked together on this job
under guidance of the U. S. At
torney's Ketchikan office. Assist
ahce was also furnished by the
U. S. Coast Guard. With this CO.
operation from other enforcement
agencies we expect to take the
profit out of outlaw operations"

BIDS SHOW HIGHER
BUILDING COST HERE
Than IN ANC HORACE

Low bid for construction of rs
single-family housing units for
Douglas, a project of the Alaska
Housing Authority, was $2.lo per
cubic foot higher than low bid on
similar job in Anchorage.
This was revealed by E. Glenn
Wilder, executive director of AHA,
who told the Juneau Chamber of
Commerce at it's noon meeting to-
day, such situation doesn't add
up"
Bids on the job were rejected at
an AHA meeting here Monday.
He appealed to builders to take
into consideration of normal prices,
instead of making price-estimates
with high war costs" as basis.
The Alaska Housing Authority
now has a program which can
produce the housing we so badly
need in the Territory" he said.
But the bids received on the Doug
las job revealed costs too high to be
borne by the average home-buyer,
in spite of lower construction costs
in this area, he said.
He stated that the AHA intends to
pursue the project in this area
and hopes that negotiations or a
new call for bids will result in
reasonable price for the Douglas
job.
"POtlatch" Idea
It was reported at the meeting
that the Chamber of Commerce is
studying the possibility of having
"Potlatch Holiday" during the 1851
tourist season. Main objective Of
the Potlatch would be to attract
visitors to Juneau, it was pointed
out.
The Chamber will also study the
need for land on which 10 put ma
terial dredged out of Gastineau
Channel, should the bar-dredging
project be started. 1t will study the
possibility of obtaining easements
for dumping dredged material on
land edging on the channel bar.
The Seattle Chamber of Commerce
has offered it's services in backing
the local Chamber in its efforts to
have the dredging job done, it was
pointed out.
Norman Banfield, a member of
the Chamber, reported that the
highway between the Alaska High
way and Atlin is completed and in
good shape. He said he travelled
over it two weeks ago and found
that work is still being done on parts
of the road, but it is passable, "and
cars and trucks can make good
time"
The Atlin highway is Of interest
to the Juneau Chamber because it
hopes that a road from tideWater
to Tulsequah will someday connect
Juneau with the Atlin road and the
Alaska Highway.
New Members Welcomed
Governor Ernest Gruening intro
duced Col. John r. Noyes, head of
the Alaska Road Commission, as a
new member of the Chamber. DR..
Ted Oberman. Juneau optometrist,
was also welcomed as new member
of the organization.
Visitors at today's meeting were
Lucille X. johnson and Leonard
Lowell of Juneau, John White. spec
ial representative of Pan American
World Always. and Harvey Brown
and Bob DeArmand of Sitka.
