SEASON 0pEN50N
WILDl|FE SERVICE
T0GARNER VOTES

Echoes of the political season
on the Fish and Wildlife Service
which opens up every year just
before election in the End Divis-
ion and doesn't close until the last
shot is fired by candidates attempt
ing to garner votes, reached Clar-
ence Rhode, regional director OF
the service, today.
This time the attack took place
at Shungnak, Eskimo village which
recently turned down reservation
set up by former Interior Secretary
Krug
Senatorial candidate william E.
Beltz of Nome, an Eskimo himself,
and Rusty" Heurlin, painter Of
northern life, visited the town
April IS, and wired a charge to
Rhode that the natives were starv-
ing, yet we're afraid to shoot into
a tremendous herd Of caribou ac-
ross the Kobuk River because of
wildlife regulations.
Rhode, taking them at their
word. wired his Kotzebue repre-
sentative, Robert Baker, to proceed
to the town and supervise killing
of four bull caribou.
He then called Don c. Foster
director of the Alaska Native Ser
vice, and asked him about the
situation. Foster was amazed at
the charge the people we're "starv-
ing" because only five days earlier
a 500 grant had been given each
family there to tide them over
until the ice broke.
Two stores in the vicinity are
well stocked with foodstuffs, Fos-
ter said.
Baker wired his superior that
there were no caribou in the area,
none had been seen for some time,
and that all natives were getting
along as well as they ever have"
He commented that lit looks like
politics to me-"
Beltz is opposed on the Demo-
cratic card, running close behind
the Republican incumbent, Percy
Ipalook.

London, (JTA) = A warning

The Israel leader said that those
arguing against mass immigration

what happened to Jews in the last
world war may happen again
should a new world armed con-

opinion that British Jews are ''let-

Austria Seeks to
PAY NaZi Losses

Vienna, (JTA)-A new bill in
trOduced in the Austrian Parlia-
ment by the Catholic Peoples
Party and the Socialists calls for
the establishment of a Hardship
equalization fund" to compensate
those who are forced to return
their property to the original
Jewish owners.
Money for the proposed fund
would come from heirleSs Jewish
property estimated at $3.50, ,O0O, 600,
as well as from a five percent
levy on property already restored
to the rightfuI owners or their
heirs. The new proposal is in
tended to replace the previous
plan designed to amend existing
legislation to avoid hardshipS for
Nazis who seized Jewish property.
Observers here point out that If
the measure is approved, all ef-
forts of Austrian and information
al Jewish organizations to re-
trieve heirIeSS Jewish property to
be used for the establishment
of Jewish survivors in Austria or
in Israel would be frustrated.

GOVERNMENT LETS
 CONTRACT GETS ITS
 NANNY FOR SIPS

One of the "steepest" contracts ever entered into by a government agency was let today by Clarence Rhode. director of the Fish and Wildlife Service for Alaska.
 Not only is the contract steep, but it's strictly rugged.
 Invitational bids went out to the Prince William Sound area few weeks ago for catching mountain goats The Wildlife Service wants to catch a few of them to trans plant' them to areas not now in- habited by the agile creatures.
 Two bids were opened by Ray Devin, procurement and supply clerk. A third arrived after the March 6 deadline and was sent back Low bidder was Ed Bilder- back. Cordova trapper. He offered to catch and deliver the animals to the services station there for SIPS a goat.
 Can Outclimb Goats
 Bilderback is well known to ser vice agents here, and is termed mountain goat" himself. He last month collected S450 from them on bounties for trapping 15 coy otes near his home town.
 The other bid was submitted by Martin L. Goreson and Carl Ling of Seward, who wanted $25O per goat. The unopened bid was from c. J. Poindexter, also of Seward.
 The service, in letting the bid, specified the cagey animals must be captured alive and unharmed between March 10 and May l. Min imum number acceptable were one male and one female, and the max imum number three males and seven females.
 It was assumed Bilderback would bend his efforts to the country north of Cordova. He will receive special permit, because of the seasons being closed at present, and methods he can use will be specified, such as type of trap or corral.
 Last Attempt Fizzled
 Last September three Wildlife agents, accompanied by a sports man, secured the country north of Seward for goats, using cor ral and padded traps. Nine traps were sprung, but MT. Goat got away from each one.
 They figured it would be cheaper to call for bids this time. The program they are attempting to set up calls for planting goats on Kodiak Island, Hinchenbrook Island in Price William Sound and perhaps Chichagof Island in south- east Alaska.
 In. 1923 they obtained IS animals from Tracey Arm and placed them on Baranof Island. Lasc year an open season was declared on them, with several hundred now known to populate the region. Oscar Oberg retired guide now living in Juneau, aided in that project, during which man was killed and several goats lost.
 Oberg reports that the goats get lawfully seasick," and as the ser vice plans on transporting the captured animals by plane to Kod- iak, they're wondering how they'll do in the air. They figure they could move perhaps five at a time in a service plane.
