(Continued from page 1)
| ling of the Alaska salmon fisheries
question.
"In the matter o'' an advisory'
hoard it is my idea that such a
. hoard should embrace the piember
1 ship of the Territorial Kish Cotnmls
I s!on in ord. r that we may have io
I ordination In all efforts and that such
a hoard should function under your
chairmanship in order that we may
I bring the Government of Alaska
1 another step closer to her own peo
! pie.
"In formulating these suggestions
. I feel that 1 am doing so in accord
‘ ance with your own well considered
I view.”
Gov. Hone said today that un
! questionably the salmon fisheries
j policy as first outlined by Secretary
; Hoover and officially sanctioned by
| President Harding In his Seattle ad
! dress will be carried out. The un
; timely death of the President will
| probably retard it in a small de
; gree hut he Is confident there will
' bo no deviation from the line laid
j! down.
“Conservation of the salmon supply
, will he brought about,” said the
’ Governor. He pointed out the Presl
, dent's declaration at Seattle in
i which It was asserted: "The eonser
. vatlon must he effected. If Congress
[ cannot agree upon a program of
helpful legislation, the reservations
I and their regulations will he fur
j ther extended by executive order.”
The late President's view of the
salmon fisheries problem Is given
in full In the booklet just issued by
'tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiimiHiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiimi
the local Commission. Mr. Hoover’s
official pronouncement, Iti which he
declar <1 that action and not words
will savp the industry, is also given,
as follows:
"Our primary purpose irf* to restore
this industry. The responsibility
rests on the officials who have the
authority to translate it into action,
pious statements, scientific discus
sion, and political oratory will not
spawn salmon. Conservation cannot
be carried out without a temporary
reduction in the amount of fish tak
en on the one hand and without con
structlve measures for enlarged pro
pagation on the other. These are not
agreeable duties but they are part of
the responsibility of public office and
[ am confident they will receive the
support of well-thinking men and
women of Alaska who treasure theli
country, not alone for themselves
but also for their children.”

ADMIRAL CHASE
FINISHES STUDY
OF LOCAL PORT
Two-Day Investigation Com
pleted^— Is Part of Exten
sive Alaskan Survey.
Following a two-day study of
local harbor and ether facilities,
| Rear Admiral J. V. Chase left here
J this morning on the tender Tern
to rejoin the !'. S. S. Cuyama at
Ketchikan on August 21st, after
I touching at a number of other
points enroute. The information se
i cured here will be embodied in an
I official report the nature of which
was not made public here.
It is known, however, that Ad
miral Chase is making a clc.e study
of the Alaskan coant from the
Aleutian chain to Ketchikan. The
Cuyama left Port Angelas carrying
two Davis-Douglas hydroplanes for
the purpose, it is said, of making a
real mosaic map of Alaskan harbors,
bays and islands;not only to explore
tho coastline for possible points of
I refuge in time of war but also to
I chart tho topography of the con
I tiguous land.
It Is believed that the survey is a
step toward putting into effect the
recommendations of the Naval
Board, under the chairmanship of
Admirai Rodman, which a year ago,
recommended a first class base ev
entually to be established in Alaska.
The scope of Admiral Chase's work
which has occupied all summer In
dicates Mbe importance attached to
it. It is undoubtedly the most ex
tensive study of tho Alaskan coast
line and port and harbor facilities
ever undertaken by the Navy De
partment.
To a committee from the local
j Chamber of Commerce which called
! on Admiral Chase during his stay
here, It was Indicated that he had
! secured all data desired from Ju
neau. Ue. however, made no state
1 ment of the nature of the informa
tion secured. It is understood that
1 it included not only dock and wharf
facilities and anchorage, but also
figures on housing for families and
office room, etc.
• While here Admiral Chase paid an
M official call cn Governor Bone and
was the latter’s guest at luncheon
yesterday. On his way south, the
■| Admiral will stop at Turner Bake
for a day's fishing and also at
Eva Lake for a second outing.
