Paradise Lost?

It's our conclusion after trying to digest all this enlightenment from all of these sources that sporting gear, which Frank and Corey promote, costs money and unless the economic status of the potential sportsman is secured with industrial development which gives him an income to buy those snap py glasss rods and high power rifles, conservation for waste. as indicated in Lost Paradise" is a lost cause Conservation for use, as now being carried out in Alaska, with industrial development aimed to improve the economic status while harvesting an over ripe crop to feed a lumher-hungry world is a sound idea.
 More dollars circulating around; more guys buying sporting gear: more publications like Field and Stream thriving on the advertising of sporting goods manufacturers use to promote their products; more very fine chaps like Frank and Corey writing interesting, though alarmist, pieces at so much a word.

THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISCOPE
The Old Battle Continues

The old fight between the arch conservationists, who want to make everybody sport fisherman or q big game hunter, and those who deJre to see an orderly develop ment of Alaska's natural resources for the benefit of man continues on.
 Started almost a half century ago when Clifford Pinchot wanted to turn the key on Alaska and make it a reserve for future generations, the clash between the two lines of thinking has erupted at various times, usually acting as a deterrent to the Territory's economic and in dustrial development
 The latest outbreak is inspired by Frank Dufresne and Corey Ford, a couple of ultra cOnservatiOnist writers, who want a fishing fly in every mans hat and a powder horn over every shoulder. Frank, former head of the Alaska Game Commits sion, and Corey, a Freedom, New Hampshire, boy who made good in the writing business, co-authored a piece which appeared recently in Field and Stream, a sportsmen's publication of which Frank is west ern editor, viewing with alarm the development of the lumber indus try in Southeast Alaska, pointing with pride to the araa's good sport fishing. They labeled their effort Lost Paradise" implying that the good fishing would be gone if q couple of Ioggers appeared on Ad- miralty Island without a fly rod.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1956-12-07

A. w. Bud" Boddy of the Alas ka Spoitsmen's Council takes up the cudgel in an article he is send ing to members of the National WlIdlife Federation, conservation groups and publications. Bud says it isn't so All is not lost, he con- tends, because Frank and Corey think they lost their paradise when d coupe of mill whistles sounded in Southeast Alaska. In fact, he turns out an accurate treatise on how the ord rly development of the lumber industry in Southeast Al aska, particularly on Admiralty Is land, the pet peeve, is going along under the watchful eye of the con- servation agencies and sportmen.
 Meanwhile, in todays paper may Forestry and Conservation Associa- tion, in which W. H. Johnson, Reg ional Forester for Alaska, predicts three more pulp operations may be established in Southeast Alaska in the next five years; namely, Wran- fell, Sitka and Juneau areas. in ad- dition to the $56 million plant all ready operating in ketchikan. All the long-term timber contracts in- volving these developments carry full provisions for the protection of fish and wildlife.

Prices Mixed
In Slow Tradinu;
Rails Active

NEW YORK, Oct. 5 (P.-The
stock market plodded along in
dull trading with prices mixed
early this afternoon.
Leading issues made gains or
losses ranging from fractions to
around a point.
The market was mixed from
the start and no divisions showed
leadership during the morning
But early in the afternoon heavy
trading began in rails. Some
carriers made gains of major
fractions to a point.
The tight money situation was
emphasized further with news
that the United States Treasury
was resorting to short-term fl
nancing to meet current cash
needs through an offering of
SIG billion in 91-day bills.
Once again, unwillingness to
make any definite changes in
position before a week end
seemed the mood in view of the
political uncertainties at home
and abroad.
American, Telephone had a
spell of heavy trading as it
extended its loss of yesterday by
another point.
Gulf Oil also dropped around
a point. But Royal Dutch
edged ahead. Standard Oil
New Jersey eased slightly.
