Mr. Goldstein said today that he was informed twenty new gas- boats were under construction Seattle for use in the Alaska fish- ing industry, but said as far as he knew they were to be oper- ated from no definite place. It is probable, however, he added, that some may operate from Ju- , as well as Ketchikan and tle. Fishérmen are already prepar- ing for the opening of the halibut season on February 15. New gear is being purchased, old equip- ment put in shape, hoats are be ing repaired, and others will be fixed up within a short time. The mosquito fleet of Juneau will soon be prepared to sail for the fish- ing banks to be ready to set their skates as soon as the season is opened. That Juneau will be a popular place for fishermen and a favor- able headquarters for more hoal than ever before is indicated by the thousands of barrels of he ing in the Juneau Cold Storage if by nothing else.

Juneau's prox- imity to the fishing banks is an- other favorable element. ———.—— FORESTER HELPS REVEAL AGE OF 'WOODEN OBJECTS; STOCKHOLM, Jan. 24, — A Swedish forester, Ake Berg, hdx»:K done his bit for nee by fin ing a way to determine the age | of wooden objects unearthed by zrchaeologists. His method is bas- ed on the observation that the vear-rings of the wood vary in| width according to local climatic | conditions and that this varia- tion is absolutely uniform in dif-| ferent trees in the same neigh-! borhood. When this system is fully de- veloped it is expected that it will! help scientists in ascertaining the exact age of fossilized tree trunks and prehistoric articles of wood found in the earth. ———.—— * FIRE ON BOAT A small ¢*. stove, overturned on a pile of rags in the cabin of a small gasboat tied up at the, upper Float called out the| Fire rtment about 3:15 p. m.
