This is a aller reduction than the per- | centage of reduction in gear and | canneries made this, Spring owing | to depression and low prices for | pink salmon. About 100,000 cases had been ed in Southeast Alaska to the |end of last week as compared to | about 138,000 up to the same date in 1930. Ketchikan and the east- ern district showed small gains | while the Icy Strait and Western (Continuux rom Paze One) districts were slightly below. i | | Fith are Larger most noticeable difference the current season and that of 1930 is the difference in the |size of the fish. In the southern jend of the Division the fish are jrunning under 11 to the case and in the northern end about 12'¢ per case. Last year in the former arcas ‘they ran from 22 to 27 per case and. in the northern districts they were as high as 25 per case. The take per trap this season to date, according to Capt. M. J. O'Connor, has been approximately equal to that of 1930. A great many traps were cut out by the regula- tions of the current year, and the number of seine boats operating arc materially less than in 1930. Copper River had a pack of slightly more than 70,000 cases, with: a fine percentage of reds.! Cook Inlet has in excess of 15,000 cases of fish to date.

It also closed commercial clam fishing in two areas after July 31. The supplementary regulations were received yesterday by local headquarters of the Bureau of Fisheries and made public today by Capt. M. J. Q'Connor, Assistant Agent. Under them commercial salmon fishing is prohibited in the Nusha- gak area between July 15 and August 3, a period of 18 days. This is tantameunt to closing it until the end of the season as red sal- mon fishing is finished ‘in the entire Bristol Bay region by .the latter date. Light runs which have prevailed there for several days are assigned as the cause for the closure. Twelve hours were added to the weekly closed period in the Kvi- chak and Naknek distriets. This makes the closed perfods from 6 a.m. Wednesday to 6 p.m. Thursday and from 6 pm. Saturday to 6 p.m. Monday of each week.
