 ESCApEMENT5
 IN 1851 SEASON

Paramount objective of the Fish and Wildlife Service during the critical Alaska salmon season ahead will be to achieve adequate escape ments to the spawning grounds, Di- rector Albert NJ Day announced from Washington, and released by the local FWS office.
 He said the alarming trend of depletion, so evident in many areas during recent years, must be hal- ted, and if possible, reversed. He ! added that the great increase ill fishermen and gear, especially gill; netters, over last years inflated volume is clearly evidenced by the present concentration of gear on Copper River. Over fishing, he said, has already reduced the re- source sustaining many of Alaska s fishing communities and further injury to salmon runs poses a ser- ious threat to the economy of the entire Territory.
 Anticipating sharp intensifica- ton in the fisheries of Bristol Bay and Cook Inlet during 1951,' Day f continued, the Service now regu- lates fishing to only half time during the season. It now appears that even this protection may not be sufficient to get adequate es- opponents by all the gear that is expected to be in operation"
 Further closed time on Copper River will be imposed, Day said, if the number of nets becomes too great. Further restrictions on forms of gear may also be necessary. He pointed out that drift gillnets have upset the stable balance which once prevailed on Cook Inlet and said that shorter nets probably will be decreed in proportion to the con- tinued influx of new gear that en- ters various areas.
 Finallyshe said, spawning grounds must be seeded sufficiently to maintain Alaska's prime industry

DRAMATIC CUT IN FISH TIME MADE
 (NC0ppER RIVER

Announcement is made today Sy Clarence Rhode, Regional Director of the Fish and Wldlife Service, that an additional twenty-lour hours of closed fishing time VIII be invoked each week for the re- mainder of the king and red salmon gillnet seasons on the Copper ana Bering Rivers. The total weekly closure of 72 hours in effect when the season opened on May l, IS now increased to 96 hours, fishing being permitted only from 6 am. Monday to pm. Tuesday and pm Thursday to 6 a m. Saturday rom now until June 20.
 This relatively drastic restriction is made necessary by the phen- omenal increase in amount of fiSh- ing gear being employed on the Copper River during the current season. Five hundred and thirty one fishermen have already regls- tered T9.650 fathoms of red salmon gillnet and 17,600 fathoms ot king salmon gear and there is more to come. The ninety miles of red gill; nets represent an increase of l7 per cent over last years expanded effort and the twenty miles of King nets are 138 per cent jump. The Copper is not particularly large salmon stream, Rhode pointed out, and its runs have already been showing signs of depletion, even un- der the less severe fishing inten- sity of earlier years.
 There is grave danger Of perm anent damage to and perhaps vir- tual destruction of the Copper Riv- CT salmon, Rhode said and added that only by sufficient periods of complete fishing closure can ade- quate spawning escapementsi be achieved.

Because of such employment

The CIO also called upon Presi-

Even victors Protest
Dickinson Election
BY the Associosed Press

CLINTWOOD, Va. Nov. IT.
The Dickinson County election
imbroglio widened today with 6
new charge that illegal votes were
cast by residents of three neigh
boring counties, and even Ten.
nessee.
| Attorney Glyn Phillips, repre-.
senting the victorious Democrats
said he had uncovered evidence
that persons from Buchanan
Russell and Wise Counties voted
in Dickenson's November 8 gen.
eral election.
Mr.. Phillips said he found 21
residents of Wise County regis
tered and voted at Lick Fork. He
said his investigation also showed
that two persons from Tennessee
had cast ballots there.
The G. o. P. was first to protest
the election results. The Republi-
cans, at mass meeting here last
Sunday, charged wholesale viola
tions of the absentee voters law
and illegal registration of certain
persons.
The Democrats were quick to
counter with their own irregu-
larity charges. They said they
would contest their lone loss in
the election-the defeat Of French
Turner for sheriff by Republican
John C. Rose.
E. r. Beverly of Clintwood, DEM
|ocratic chairman in the county has
asked the Republicans to join WITH
the Democrats in petitioning the
Circuit court to summon a special
grand jury to investigate the IT,
regularity charges.
