Lavenik of the Birches and Rob- bertcon of the Hemlocks were the high individual bowlers. The former scored a total of 543 and Robert- {son an aggregate of 566. | Lavenik Equals Record Lavenik was in fine form in the |third game, knocking down 223 | pins, equalling the tournament rec- jord held by Bringdale and George Messerschmidt. In the scheduled contest be- tween ‘the Cedars and the Oaks, money winning list, Faireno de- feated the Schwartz colt, a grand- |son of Man o' War, in the Belmont ista.kes, again in the Dwyer and | took his measure for the last time in the Lawrence Realization.

He supported his de- nial by reading from the Congres- sional Record of May 17, an ac- unt of the proceedings on that em in the War Department sup- ply bill. Cut by Committee The Budget estimates, the Dele- said, had called for $656,000 the Commission. The Com- , under the economy urge, d it to $334,000. He failed to cite any appearance he made € pefore the Committee, where he, carlier in his speech, had said work on bills had to be done, but read to the audience a mction he made on the floor of the House to re- store the original figure of $636,- 000. This, he said, was beaten be- cause of the opposition of the Democratic majority. Then Con- gressman McDuffie, Alabama Dem- cerat and Chairman of the Econ- omy Committtee, tried to eliminate the item entirely. By hard work, he said, he had beaten that ef- fort, geiting a bare majority of six votes out of 35¢ members of the House. Reasons For Transfer It wasn't so much because the Department of Interior wanted to take over the Alaska Road Com- mission’s work in Alaska, but owing to the incessant activity of bump- tious Thomas Blanton, Texas Dem- ocrat, that the Commissidn was {ransferred from the War to the Interior Department, declared the Delegate. ~ Blanton for miserable for the former Depart-! ment over some 2,000 Army offi- cers detailed to civil activities that it just naturally took to cover and, yielding to pressure, the Secretary initiated the motion to take the Army officers on the Commission out of Alaska. He contended the Delegate, wrote to the Secretary of Interior asking him to take over the organization’s duties and pow- ers. The latter officer wrote to Senator Howell and the President also approved the transfer. The Delegate didn't read the corres- pondence, however. «T don’t know who prepared the bill, but T do know it was intro- duced by Congressman Bdward T. Taylor, Democrat of Colorado,” he added. He said he was asked to do it, but didn’t. Was Prescnt When Enacted He asserted positively he was in Washington when ‘the bill was fi- nally passed by the House and sent to the Senate, but didn't know just when it passed the Senate. He said he couldn't have pre- vented its passage in the House pecause it was favored by the Democratic majority, by the Presi- dent and by the Secretaries of Interior and War. Reviews Early Record ¢ Challenging Democrats to cite any legislative achievements of made life so! became laws. i Tolls Are Trivial | During his present term, he said, \there has been an insufficient time ito do any extended service for the | Territory. He answered criticisms on the creation of a toll road sys- tem in the Territory by labeling it a “trivial” matter. He said in 'one speech he had failed to men- Ition this phase of the transfer of | the Alaska Road Commission, but didn't see that his failure was janything to cause comment. *“I chpected to it but it did no good,” {he said, He added that “it didn't matter a5 it is unimportant. It is the i silliest little thing which will never {be put into affect,” adding he {wanted the critics to “shut up about it.” Reported Was Inaccurate /Citing what he termed a “delib- erate” misquotation of the record from Senator Dimond’s speech here early this week, he strongly inti- imabed that the reporter for The Empire acted unfairly and tried tu twist the account to the Dele- gate’s discredit. The Welsh bill on floating canneries was referred to as a bill introduced by him One of the witnesses for the measure was a Pete Olsen, whose name was mistakenly given in The Empire as Andrew Olsen. In the {hearings quoted, the Delegate char- acterized Olsen as a ‘“racketeer,” then asked by a member of the | Committee who would control the |Legislature if it were given au- thority to control the (Fisheries of IAlask&, the Delegate replied: “Who controls Congress? Pete Olsen, I !suppose.” This testimony, said Wickersham was deliberately twist- ed to his disadvantage. Wrong Approach Used Wickersham’s predecessor, Dan jSutherland, used entirely the wrong approach in undertaking to get something done about the fisher- ies, the Delegate said, in his state- ment on fish traps. Treps, he declared, are mechanisms that compete with bumdn beings, If it resolves itself into a question of traps or human employment for taking fish, then, he said, he is in favor of humans, and against the traps. 3 The House Committee on Merch- ant Marine and Fisheries is largely concerned with ships and shipping, with things mechanical. Anything that threatens shipping is taboo with it. For that reason anytime. Sutherland introduced a “bill on fish that smacked of antagonism to the mechanical end of the in- dustry, it got set on by the Com- mittee, Goes To Indian Committee When Delegate Wickersham rea- lized what was wrong, he said he decided to approach it from anoth- er angle, and picked out the Com- mittee on Indian Affairs as the most likely to succeed. He in- duced that body to appoint a sub- commiittee of six to study the Gov- ernment’s treatment of the Alaska Indians, and it is going to come here next year for that purpose. ‘When it sees how the Indians jare. discriminated against by the salmon canners, and how Indian [ | ;L&gis]ature that it had no right to repeal the law, but said he {hadn't then given the matter ser- ious study. Since then he has changed his mind and now believes |1t has the necessary authority. Is For Repeal He championed repeal of that law, saying it is being used solely as an instrument for punishment and he never did believe in that. He said he was advised by both Democratic and Reputlican mem- bers of the House Committee on Territories that it might be possi- ble to repeal it in the December session of Congress. with supporting a resolution 1913 [sic] asking Congress to pass a law for control of Alaska fur and game animals, and that the resolutions had attached to it the present Alaska Game Law. “Now Senator Dimond promises to abal- ish the Game (Commission,” he declared. He referred to Senator Dimond as a corporation attorney and had been the attorney for the Kenne- cott Copper ICorporation and the Alaska Steamship Company for some 15 years. He didn't believe he would make a good representa- tive in Congress on that account. The Alaska Plank He closed his discourse by read- ing the Republican plank on Alas- ka appointments, and declared that the Democratic party had. failed to say anything on that subject. He also pointed to the G. O. P, plank on Indians and said while it didn't refer to \Alaska Indians, it extended to them.
