 But I submit the chief objec- ton of those principally concern ed with taking Alaska's salmon is that they fear the people of Alaska with Statehood would promptly act to remove the fish traps from Alaskan waters.
 "In that fear they are undoubt- edly correct. The people of Ore gon and Washington have already done that. The people of Alaska, under the present system, are poWerleSS to act"
 George Sundborg, consultant to the Alaska Development Board, testifying in favor to Statehood, looked around the committee room as he concluded his testi- mony and said.
 "I see that the opponents of Statehood are those who live off Alaska instead of in Alaska. Those who live in Alaska are over whelmingly in favor of State hood"
 Sundborg testified that if state hood is granted there is no inten- ton of increasing the tax on sal mon.
 Bartlett urged approval of the legislation as a defense move.
 He reviewed troubles facing business men in the Territory who must come to Washington to get decisions from government departments and asserted that ev- cry argument now being advanced against Statehood for Alaska was made against Statehood for other Territories now States.
