HECKMAN GIVES
OUT NEW PLANS
FOR FISHERIES
Fish Commission Reorganized
—Change of Hatchery
Policy Is Put Through.
ftp-organization of the Territorial
FI Eli Commission and the adoption'
of a changed policy by it were
indicated in statements made today
by Gov. Scott C. Hone, Chairman,
and J. R Heckman, Vice-Chairman
of the Commission. Governor Bone
announced today that Calvin C.
Uazelrt, of Cordova, and H. E.
Ellsworth, of Seward, had been re
appointed on the Commission for
iwo-year terms, and that Edwin
Wentworth had been re-engaged as
Superintendent of Hatcheries.
Ti ntatlve plan? agreed upon in
conferences between the Governor
j and Mr. Heckman, it was raid by
,the former, call for the expenditure
only of some $00,000 of the $80,000
provided for the biennium, $20,000
, being set aside as a reserve which
jit is new believed it will not be
i necessary to expend.
Heckman Announces Policy.
Restriction of hatchery work to
a single plant In each of the First
(and Third Divisions, discontinuance
of the local hatchery, installation
j of a new one at Ketchikan Creek,
* and limitation of propagation to
: humpies, are the principal features
I of the now policy as announced by
Mr. Heckman, It is necessary, he
aid, to remove the local hatchery
from its present loeation in thf
A. ft. building and owing to the fact
tliaf it Is not possible to obtain in
this vicinity a sufficient quantity of
eggs of the variety of salmon to be
propagated, it was Inadvisable to
continue hatchery operations here.
At Auk l.ake, the commission will
put in a fence to keep out the
trout, will destroy trout, lift salmon
across the fence and count them
into the lake. This work will he
done at an expenditure estimated
between $1,000 and $1,500.
Move Equipment to Ketchikan. !
Toe local hatchery equipment,
will he removed to Ketchikan for
installation at the now hatchery
there, he said. Kupt. Wentworth
will do this at once and while the
Ketchikan plant, is being put into
condition Mr. Wentworth w|^l go to
the Westward to start the season’s!
work there.
During the biennium tlie Commis
sion's plans call for the operation of
but two ha’tchereis, the one at Ket
chikan and one at Cordova. "I am
absolutely opposed to trying to con
duct hatcheries for red salmon.”
said Mr. Heckman. “I do not believe
it can he done successfully.” The'
Commission's principal work in con
nection witli rod salmon will be in
tlie destruction of predatory ene
mies, some stream clearing and
tallying the fish into the various
spawning waters. All of this will
be under the supervision of Supt.
Went worth.
Each division has been alioted
$25,000 for the two years’ work. To
ziiMiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiliiimiiiiiiiiiiii
P'ty salaries, wages, travel expenses
md oilier overhead $10,000 has
been provided.
Employ Active Secretary.
The employment of a competent
man to act as Secretary of the Com
mission on full time, combining
this work with compilation of the
statistics directed to be furnished
to the next Legislature relative to
the salmon supply, spawning
streams, and other Information. For
the later work a special fund of
$6,600 was provided. It Is believed
that it will require continuous
services of a field secretary during
the biennium to carry out this und
ertaking. Heretofore the Commis
sion lias not had a secretary on full
time, cne being employed to keep
the records and accounts on a nom
inal salary. No secretary has yet
been employed by the Commission.
Expects Show Results.
The commissron confidently ex
pects to be able to show results of
its work by the time the next Leg
islature convenes, said Mr. Heck
man, In the operation of its hatch
ery at Ketchikan Creek, It will con
struct suit water ponds In which
the fry will be held and fed until
they have attained a size to enable
them to take care of themselves.
As many will be marked as time
will permit and a record kept of
the marked ones returning to the
parent stream. In the destruction
iof trout, stream clearing and tally
j ing of red salmon the Commission
txpoetB to aid In renewing the sup
lily of fish.
Mr. Heckman will leave for Ket
chlkun tomorrow on the Admiral
Ungers. He expects to d?vote a
considerable portion of his time to
directing the operations of the Ket
rhlkatij hatchery for the next two
years.
