Asks Alaska Posts to Assist in
Fight Against Fishery
Reservations.
■'The czar of all the Hu--.ms ha.I
more consideration for the Ala -loan
people than the Department of Com
merce is showing for them today,
declared Delegate Dan Sutherland in
a telegram urging Alaskan American
Legion posts to Investigate u.id eon-,
demo regulations and rules of the
Fi.'utnes reservations, which un
made public today by George !
Maun, Departmental Adjutant foi tb
Grgion. "Tbe Department officials
will probably leave it with the it.
dividual posts to take whatever ar
uoc they desire." said Mr. Mann.
The Delegate's cablegram is ,i
sweeping denunciation of the f)i
partment of Commerce and the Bu
reau of Fisheries and attacks a so
called fish trust. He asks that the
Legionnaires wire protests direct to
'Secretary Hoover after they have'
made an investigation.
Context of Message
The Delegate's message said, in,
*'I appeal to your organization toj
Investigate thoroughly the rule* es-,
•abl-Ished by the United States Bu
reau of Fisheries for administering .
iAlaskan fisheries under the reserva
tion system and aiso the manner in ;
which they have given exclusive
rights in all the fishery areas ini
Western ’ Alaska to the filsh trust *
• * This means the right of fish-!
ery is denied Aiaskan residents r\
cept by permission of tlie fisli trust
It means the fisheries are taken out;
of control of the people and gives ’
to the fish trust. This is the most
damnable outrage ever perpetuated!
on Alaska since Using's discovery .
The czar of ail the Ilits-xians h t i
more consideration for the Alaskan'
merce is .showing today. Principal,
people than the Department of Com
beneficiaries of this reservation i
scheme as administered by the Hit
reau -of Fisheries are the very cor i
-poratlons who prepared and sold f
your use during the World War tl
composed and putrid fish. Indict
menis against these men are pending
in the Department of Justice a; t
same time the Department of (\ .
tneree is delivering the rights of th
Alaskan people to them."
Wires Other Posts
The cablegram was received yes
terday by the local post It i
most certain that Identical w -

partment headquarters are in r - ■ jd
of a message from Mte post a; Pel
