ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF "ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. & APPEALS SHOULD BE GIVEN CONSIDERATION. The appeals of the seine fishermen and the salmon packers in this vicinity for an extension) of the salmon fishing season should be seriously eensidered by the United States Bureau of Fisheries. ‘The seiners base their plea on the fact that to date the runs of fish have been so small that they have been unable to earn any money and face the charity list next winter unless they are permitted to fish longer than the normal season. The packers point out that the usual run had not materialized up to about the end of the season, and, further, | that a great mass of fish is just now entering the inside waters through Icy Strait. g Both the employees and employers have a lot of | Justification behind their appeals. The seiners are dependent upon their takes for a living. Their testimony and that of the packers agree that the runs to date have been relatively unimportant. The packs are proof of the correctness of their claim. Indeed, the studies of employees of the bureau substantiate it. The reported big run was first heralded last | Saturday by Warden Haley who wired from western | Icy Strait, where the season had already ended, that | a good run was in progress at Inian Island and on the north shore of Icy Strait. Supt. Floe, of the Harris plank at Hawk Inlet, reported Icy Strait| “one mass of fish” and Supt. Minard reported a lift of 85000 fish from a single trap in that district last Saturday. i Apparently the conditions prevailing almost| everywhere in Southeast Alaska in 1930 are being duplicated this year. Then the pink runs were unusually late. An almost unprecedented move- | ment set in just as the season was about to end.] Streams everywhere were overcrowded with fish.| The late comers destroyed a heavy percentage of the spawn of the earlier runs. Instead of tending to promote conservation, the late fish actually in- jured the supply of early fish. The packers might well have been permitted to can the surplus since it would have benefitted the cause of conservation and turned into trade channels fish that spawned and died without gain to the fisheries. That may not be the case again this year. How- ever, the bureau ought to check up on the runs very closely, and if there is really a heavy run of | fish now in progress, it can justifiably grant the appeals for an extension of the season, since to do so will aid employees as well as employers and at the same time further the interests of conservation. BUREAU OF TERRITORIAL AND INSULAR AFFAIRS. A few days ago, an Associated Press news report from Washington, D. C., announced the creation of a Bureau of Territorial and Insular Affairs, modeled somewhat after the famous Colonial Office of Great Britain, which would have charge of all affairs se credited in this paper and also the |’ |distant and most recently discovered, is (like Mer- at 15,600 of which 14,020 are members of the Federal Deposit Corporation. Of the 1,500 non-member banks, 501 are mutual sawings institutions. There are 567 such banks in the country. Most of these non-member banks are in New England and the Middle Atlantic States. The remaining 1,000 non-members are State-chart- ered, of which there are 8,600 throughout the country. « The matter of joining the FDIC is optional with the State banks but is compulsory with insti- tutions holding Federal charters. Kansas has the largest number of non-member banks with 323. Attesting to the soundness of all the licensed ——— 20 YEARS AGO Prom The Empire e - ——— AUGUST 7, 1914, One hundred thouan: 2 were involved in the siruzgle at Liege, Belgit when the German infantry atiacked that city. The Germans abandoned after a loss of 25000 men. The banks, the American Banker finds that the deposits of the non-member banks have been increasing with the same degree of rapidity as the deposits of insured banks. @ Trollers are again in pursuit of the Alaska salmeon after @'season so cluttered up with shipping tieups and strikes that fresh fish were for a time in the luxury class. If the fish don’t decide to go on a strike themselves maybe it will be a good year after all. Hitler now has all the power of a monarch, says the staid Associated Press. Compared to him, King George and Victor Emanuel are just white chips in a no-limit, deuces wild poker game. The Oasis of Cosmic Life. French - invasion of Germany be- gan at dayligh: when entrance into the country was made through the towns oi Vic and Moyenvic were taken by the French without seri- ous loss. It was reported at Stock- holm that the Russian navy was bottle up in Helsingfors and that the Germans had taken the ports of Reval and Libau. v 4 L Charles E. Bunnell was selected as Democratic nominee for Dele- gate to Congress at tiie Democratic convention that was under way at Skagway. He planned to leave for Ketchikan to attend a ratification meeting there and expected to re- turn to Juneau to address a ratifi- cation meeting here and return to (New York Times.) Again word comes irom the Lowell Observafory in Flagstaff that there is no possibility of life “on other planets with the exception perhaps of Mars— at any rate, life in any such form as we know it. The evidence gathered by planetary spectrum photo- graphs is that the atmospheres of Saturn and Jupiter consist so largely of deadly gases not found on the earth that even if an earth-born creature could. take a Jules Verne-like journey to either of these, the great cold and deadly gases would “snuff out life.” If he carried oxygen for breathing pur- pose, an explosion would at once dispose of it. The Lowell reporters say that the said atmospheres may be likened to “the interior of a gassy mine mixed with an exploded ice factory” and all at a tem- perature that would make Admiral Byrd's Antarctic climate seem temperate. One scientist, letting his imagination play, pictured Jovian oceans of liquld ammonia rolling up their waves on queer chemicals. Of Uranus and Neptune the Arizona astronomers do not speak with the same certitude, but what light these two remoter planets shed compels them to hold that there is no possibility of life on these spacious and distant spheres. And Pluto, the most cury, the sun’'s nearest neighbor) without atmosphere, being too small and having “too little gravity to hold on to gases.” Venus, on the other hand, has “much atmosphere,” but can support only such life as can exist without water or oxygeam and can thrive on the waste product of respiration on earth— carbon dioxide. This narrows the possibility down to Mars—or, to use the language of the scientific re- port: “Mars is the best best” for life elsewhere than on this planet. Mars has clouds and water, “but less than on earth.” And the wide range of tem- perature, from 65 to 70 at midday to below zero by night, suggests an intolerable climate for such a being as man, even if lichens or fungi or “strange Martian germs” might find this a habitable place. We may thus think of ourselves as the sole living-human inhabitants of our solar system and wonder the more that with such a common inherit- ance we do not make a better use of it. There may be, as one of our leading astronomers has said, planets circling about other suns, inhabited by intelligent beings of some sort, having had a longer period of evolution and so having, advanced mentally and in other ways far beyond the masters of the “new little tenth-rate planet Earth,” this crust whereon we dwell, ‘Whereon our loves and shames are begotten and buried, Our first-slime and our ancestral dust. Peeled of this rind it would still keep its mo- tions in “God’s orrery” undisturbed, but so flayed it would cease to be the most significant creation in all our solar system, and for aught we know the only “oasis of life” in all the universe of universes. Odds and the Glory. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Now that stout-hearted Cavalcade has added the Arlington Park classic to his easy victories in the |Chesapeake States, the' Kentutky Derby, the Am- erican Derby and the Detriot Derby, he has taken @ place in American hedirts along with Man o' War. His popularity may be measured accurately from the eloquent testimony that $2 pari-mutuel tickets paid $2.74, $2.16 and $2.14, respectively, straight, place relating to Territories and possessions. It is to be established in the Interior Department. " Just how far this bureau will go in its admin- istration of Territorial affairs was not indicated. ‘Whether it is designed to consolidate all Federal activities in the Territories under the new agency was nét disclosed. And if that should be the pur- pose, it will be necessary to get some laws through Congress before its objective can be achieved. For instance, the Department of Commerce has been designated by Congress as administrative agent for the Government in handling the Alaska fisheries and fur seals. The Department of Agriculture has the game animals and birds, as well as the forests. Before jurisdiction over these could be transferred to the new bureau Congress certainly would have to act. The organization of the bureau, its scope of authority and its methods of procedure are matters of uncommon interest and much importance to'the Territory. A detailed announcement regarding the plans and policies is awaited with- interest. MANY BANKS REOPENED. ‘The number of banks opened in 1934 passed the 1,000 mark last month when charters for institu~ tions reopened or replaced reached 1,020, statistics recently published by the American Banker revealed. Of the total, 339 were National and 381 were State- chartered institutions. During 1933, the re-openings tablulated 1,500, of which 800 were opened before June 30, 1933. It is pointed out that after the banking holiday in the Spring of last year there were 4811 closed and unlicensed banks, according to . Pederal Reserve figures, so that with the openings : thus far this year there is still a loss withdrawal of 188 banks from the Federal Deposit Corporation. temporary fund on June 30, n in the the deposit gnd show. Those who never buy a ticket may derive in- spiration from a horse which was caught in a jam at the start and crowded back to last—last even in the back stretch—only to extend himself, circle around the leaders and drive to victory. Is it any wonder that man rejoices in the qualities of the thoroughbred and is gratified if some of these qualities may be identified with himself? ‘These superlative attributes are inborn. It has taken at least three hundred years of astute cross- ing of blood lines to evoke them with any certitude of running true to type. Even so, the chances of a Man o' War or a Cavalcade are remote. A little- heralded research by the Carnegie Institute has been proceeding since 1923 at Cold Springs Harbor and at the Mereworth Stud of Walter J. Salmon in the 'Blue Grass. The genetics department has examined systematically the breding and racing records of over 100,000 leading horses over all the world and in various periods to reduce to mathe- matical formulae the secret of thoroughbred racing capacity. Given a sire and dam, what is the probability of a world beater? How good a horse in decimal Haines and Skagway before leav- ing for the westward. A number of parties had been given for the Misses Beatrice Behr- ends, Gertrude Heid and Vera Mul- len who were to leave soon for the south. At a dinner given in théir honor by Mr. Burt Brewster and Mr. Walter O'Brien other guests were Miss Elizabeth Heid, Muriel Folsom, Juanita Anderson and Messrs. Mullen, Momb, Harris, and Cartwright. Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Faulkner chaperoned the party. Weather for the preceding 24 hours was cloudy with rain. The maximum temperature was 57 de- gress and the minimum was 44. Precipitation was .09 inches. Mrs. Robert Simpson was giving & series of novel afternoon enter- tainments, one of the most inter- esting of which was a book party given the previous afternoon at which each guest wore something distinctive that would designate the title of a book. Miss Gertrude Hellenthal won the prize for guess- ing the greatest number of book titles. — | MODERN | BEAUTY SHOP 403 Goldstein Bldg.
