League Cities Gather Nov. 1

The program emphasis this year for the League of Alaskan Cities convention will be on legistlation and the Federal Aid Highway Pro gram, according to the Leagues president, Mayor Douglas Preston of Fairbanks. The Convention will be held in Ketchikan November l to-
 Participation of cities in the territorial highway planning and construction program is of the ut most importance to the success of that program" Preston said.
 The highway program will be the subject of the November l luncheon session, immediately fol- lowing the keynote address by Gov. B. Frank Heintzleman. A repre- sentative from the Department of Commerce will be the featured speaker. A tour of the Ketchikan Pulp Mill and the City will be made the same day.
 Alaska City Reports will be heard during the November evening session, Delegates from each mem Der and guest city will give a short historical summary of his city, its economy tax structure or ganization and personnel, munich pal programs and facilities, public works and utility construction dur. ing the past year, plans for the next year and major problems con- fronting the city.
 The Alaska Cities Workshop will take up both morning and after noon sessions of the. Conventions second day. Emphasis of the morn ing session will be on What Alas ka Cities Need from Federal and Territorial Programs. The theme of the afternoon session will be What Cities Can Do to Help Them selves"
 Councilman Tim Gilmore will represent Kodiak, as this City is member of the League.

stance directly behind an outboard motor-propelled boat. The turbu- lance from the motor mixes the TO- tonone with the lake water.
 After the rotonone had been in- troduced, the lake was surveyed A sample ten feet square at the shorline was taken every 100 yards. Using these sample areas for an estimate, it was determined that about 120,000 sticklebacks were killed in Lake Jack and 50O,O0 il Lake Lee. Since these small fish are not edihle, and are not used as food even by trout, it can readily be understood why these lakes have not supported the trout fry planted in previous years,
 The time required before these lakes can be stocked IS from two to three months depending on the temperature, amount of sunshine, and certain biological processes within the lake. The water will be tested from time to tim to deter mine its toxicity, until il is ready to receive the new crop of trout from the hatchery.
 The same method will be applied to other lakes as the program con- tinues.

Planting Of Trout Begins Soon Lakes Are Being Conditioned

The Naval Station Conservation Club has instituted a program by means of which it is hoped to in- crease the population of trout in hitherto barren lakes.
 Two lakes found to have condi- ti0ns for the support of trout, but not producing at present are Lake ttack and Lake Lee. These are l6- cated one quarter mile to the left of the Sargent Creek pump road near its end, in the Bells Flats area. Lake Jack has an n$area of 434 acres with maximum depth of six feet. Lake Lee comprises 145R acres and has a. maximum depth of f7 feet. Despite past planting of thousands of fry in these lakes they are practically de- void of trout, but were found to have high population of stickle- backs.
 These facts have been gleaned from careful surveys conducted in the past. The new program, which will be under the direction of Bob Simon, hatchery manager and fish biologist, will be completed by vol unteerS from the Club.
 The first step has been carried out by the group. Thus was condi-

ATOMIC FISHING PREDICTED

Washington (AP). An atomic fishing boat that would use atom energy to lure, capture, stcrilize, refrigerate or can fish is envision- Cd by a University of Wisconsin scientist.
 Dr. Arthur Hasler says atomic Turing" is done this way: A ships atomic reactor, in addition to pro- polling the ship, would furnish enough currents of elsc::acity i1 the water in the area neor the ves. sel thereby attracting tn. fish to a point where they could be pumped aboard.

The stickleback is two to three inch fish, and a plankton' feeder. This presents serious competition to the young trout--so much so that if is almost impossible to get trout started in lake heavily populated with stickleback. -ni- ur.&

 To create barren lake, rotonone is applied. This acts as poison to gill breathing fish. The shore line is first sprayed with a rotonone solution carried in a tank of the type used by forest fire fighters. It was also distributed in dry form by hand, from a gunny sack. It was introduced into the lake proper by towing a rotonone bearing sub

General Assembly and Schools

shoulders Of the General Assembly just
adjourned. They and they alone will ex-
plain to Virginia people.
It is disquieting that so serious matter
as Indignation Of Virginia's public school
system should have been a political
whipping boy" by an elected body of Vir-
ginians. 1t is our opinion that as soon as
the people back home realize the incon-
sistency of legislative action. and are
forced to come to grips with racially in
tegrated schools and or faculties, etc. the
failure Of this General Assembly will come
into full focus. We predict that the people
in Virginia won't like it, and in many sec
lions won't take it.
Members Of the Constitutional Conven-
ton, fresh from the people, acted with
wisdom and dispatch. Passage of sup
elemental interposition resolution was
abundant evidence that the people Of Vir-
ginia mean what they say when they pro-
pose to take "all legal means" to prevent
Indignation Of schools. 1t was the second
time the people had spoken, once in the re-
ferendum to change the constitution and
then through their representatives in the
Constitutional convention.
\ The lines will be drawn with clarity in
the near future. The issue will be brought
to the people in no unmistakable terms.
The question will be Do you favor in
tegration of Virginia's schools or do YOU
not? This question must be answered, but
it can not be answered by indecision, or
contradiction
The Gray Commission report has it's
good and bad features. about which we
will express our opinion in later issue.
We agree that this report should be con-
sidered in a special session, but we are
equally concerned that mature considera-
ton be given the report both by the legis-
lators and the people.

The 166 men are actually completing
construction of base for U. S. personnel,
which includes more. than thirty buildings,
and which will house scientists and other
Americans, in the years to come. They will
be isolated until October when ships can
again get through.
About the only consolation we could see
in such duty, which cuts these men off
contact with the rest of the world between
now and October, is that they will not be
subjected to stupid television ads, the urge
to buy the latest model automobile, or the
temptation to hold up bank. Another is
that they are serving their country we'll.
