the council will endeavor to have Mr.
Emery erect a cannery at Douglas.

Vhe proposed construction of a puip j
plant at Sew ird has been blocked by j
an intimation of a refusal by the Fed-;
eral Power Commission to grant a li
cense for the water power project on
Kenai river. The project is being pro
uu„ed by Frank L Bailaine, who re
cently announced that he had finaoeed
the proposition. He has been notified
by the commission that on account of a
protest by the Bureau of Fisheries it i« ,
probable that no license will be grant
ed. The protest made by the Bureau
of Fisheries is based on the claim that
the dams called for in the development
of the powei plant, oo Kenai river
would destroy that stream and its trio
utaries as salmon spawning ground and
t he eutire red salmon fisheries of Cook
Inlet as a commercial proposition.
