TROLLERS IDLE AT SITKA, DUE T0 SHIP TIEUP Hundreds Are Unable to Operate-—Seal Hunting Season Is Subnormal Due to the longshoremen’s strike | tie-up, | and consequent shipping fishing is at a standstill at Sitka and hundreds idle with their boats tied up, ac- cording to Warden Don S. Haley, Warden of the United States Bu-| reau of Fisheries, who returned here today on a patrol speedboat The Teal, Capt. Roy Cole, which he made the trip, returned to port about noon. With no market for their wares, the fishermen have tied up at Sitka to await restoration of ship- ping which is the only source of relief, Mr. Haley said. A fine run of king salmon is reported in the| district, but that isn’t helping the | fishermen who can't take them unless they can find a market. The seal hunting at Sitka this year was not as good as normally is exberienced. One boat, operated by Charley Dick, took 11 seals. The feed upon which the herds live enroute to their summer breed- ing grounds on the Pribilof Islands, was well offshore this spring and but few seals came to the inshore hunting grounds. Poor market conditions also discouraged hunt- ing. The usual market activities in this district were halted while the Teal came to port with a scow to | of fishermen are' PROMINENT WHITEHORSE ATTORNEY AND WIFE ON WAY SOUTH FOR VISIT Mr. and Mrs. ‘Whitehorse, | sengers on the Princess Norah on | their way to Easteyn Canada where their son John is attending school.
