SCOTT PASSES ON FOLLOWING BRIEF ILLNESS Prominent Young Business Man Dies Early Today at St. Ann's Hospital D. E. Scott, aged 28, junior mem- ber of the firm of Sabin and Scott of this city, died in St. Ann's Hos- pital this morning after an illness of two weeks. Death was caused directly by uremic poisoning and complications of the heart and kid- ney, following an operation for ulcers of the stomach, from which he had long suffered Mr. Scott entered the hospital March 31, and was operated on the following day While the opera- tion was entirely successful, and he showed some improvement for a time, later the complications arose which resulted in death. For most of the past three days he had | been unconscious. He is survived by his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. G. M. Scott, two sisters and a younger brother, all of El Centro, Calif. They have been notified and instructions asked for. Pending these, no ar- rangements will be made for fun-| eral and interment. Mr. Scott came to Juneau in De-| cember, 1927, and has resided here continuously ce that time. He was active in athletics and a mem- ber of the Juneau Volunteer Fire Department, residing at the Fire- men's Club. He was in charge of the men’'s furnishings department at Goldstein’s Emporium until about three weeks ago when he and C. E. Sabin purchased the clothing store owned by N. G. Nelson, and he then took over the active man- agement of that enterprise During his residence here he made many friends. He was par- ticularly interested in the work of the Fire Department, taking an ac- tive part in all its undertakings. He was a member of the B. P. O. Elks, holding membership in the| El Centro lodge. SENATE ASKED T0 PASS BILL FOR LIBRARIES Mrs. Ashle_y_-Voices Plea for Smaller Towns— License Hearing A plea for Territorial financial aid to libraries in the smaller com- munities of Alaska was voiced yes- terday in the Senate by Mrs. How- ard Ashley, representing the Wom- en’s Club of Skagway, and speak- {increased se! en’s Clubs to make Territorial treasur that the smaller communities should have some slight aid. Mrs. Ashley said even the flat sum of $100 per year would be a boon to them. Fishermen’s License Discussed The nonresident fishermen’s li- cense tax bill had another hearing in the Senate yesterday afternoon Amended Wednesday to raise the trollers’ license to $150 and seiners to $50, a boost of 1,500 per cent in the former and 100 per cent in the latter, the subject was reopened yesterday. August Buschmann, Nick Bez, prominent cannnerymen, H. L. Faulkner and R. E. Robertson pro- tested against the increase on sein- ers particularly and urged the pres- ent $25 rate be not changed. They also asked the Senate to hold the troller schedule to not more than $50 for the next two years. Messrs. Buschmann and Bez pointed out that the increased sein- ers’ tax would fall largely on the ny raid on the , but it was felt herring packing industry, as the major portion of the seiners brought into the Territory for the season were employed on herring boats | However, Mr. Bez pointed out, a few canneries in the Bristol Bay district were entirely dependent on seiners and the increased levy would fall heavily on them Herring Men Hit There will be fewer nonresident seiners in Alaska this year than in the past, c to the fact that the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries has put a it on seine boats that makes it impossible to bring north the big vessels from Puget Sound, Mr. Buschmann said. He told the Senate that the herring industry is going through a diffi- cult period, making little if any profits and many of its units hav- ing a hard time to keep going. He predicted this would pass and said eventually the herring packing and reduction industry would be the second in importance to the Ter- ritory comparable to that of Scot- land and Norv He feared the ners tax would tend to put the herring men out of busi- ness. In this view he was sus- tained by Mr. Bez The latter pointed out that it was impossible | for the herring men to secure local seiners or boats and were forced by local conditions to bring both from the south. Economic Side Stressed Mr. Faulkner and Mr. Robertson stressed the economic side, pointing out that home industry could not be built up by putting prohibitive taxes in industry. Under present conditions Mr. Robertson said, after the fishing season ends there is no source of other employment for fishermen and no means of absorb- ing them in any other work as is developed done in more highly communities elsewhere. Mr. Faulkner said the $150 tax on trollers would likely work a| hardship on both mildcurers and cold storage plans by cutting their sources of supply. After the hear- ing, the Senate re-referred the measure to the Committee on Fish- eries for further consideration. Table Pension Bill The Senate yesterday tabled for the time being Rothenburg’s bill to increase old age allowances. It THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, APRIL 13, 1929.
