PROTECTION FOR GAME FISH IS DISCUSSED HERE, | Territorial CTI;mber Back-| ing Plan to Conserve Good Fish Grounds ! The question of protection for game fish in the Territory was brought to the attention of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce at the luncheon in the Terminal Cafe today by the Secretary of the Ter- ritorial Chamber of Commerce. Many published comments have been made regarding the need for protection of game fish in Alaska by writers who visited the Terri- tory last summer, and alarm at the probable outcome of lack of restrictions has been expre: present 4 he Territorial Chamber of Commerce and the en- dorsement of a proposed program by the various Chambers of Com- merce of Alaska is being requested by the Territorial organization. . Proposed Program The program proposed by the Territorial Chamber of Commerce provides that the Alaska Game!| Commission be given authority through an act of Congress, to maintain hatcheries for game fis to'make arrangements with simi agencies in the States for exchange of fry and eggs for propogation purposes; to make reasonable regu- [ lations where required by local conditions, as to the number, size and method of taking game fish; to establish closed seasons where necessary, and to do whatever is requisite and necessary for the maintenance and increase of game fish in the Territory of Alaska. Provided, that nothing in proposed regulations shall a authority to be given the Game Commission to forbid the Alaska native Indian or the Es- kimo from taking for food i poses, such quantities of game fish as may be necessary for tenance, or that of his fam Salmon Enemy Provided further that in those distriets of the Territory in which it shall be determined by the Bu- reau of Fisheries of the United States that the dolly varden or salmon trout is a predatory enemy of the salmon, such dolly varden or salmon trout shall not be con- Isidered as game fish to come under the head of the authority of the Alaska Game Commission. The laws of the United States or the Territory of Alaska provide mo agency or i rumentality auth- orized to stock or protect streams and lakes adapted to game fish- ing, the report of the Territorial Chamber of Commerce stated, and there are no laws, rules or regu- lations of the United States or the Territory of Alaska governing the game fish of Alaska. Where such lakes and streams are lotated near the centers of population, said lakes and streams are becoming barren or fast losing their value as game fishing waters by reason of ov fishing and the lack of any limit on the catch. The matter of endorsement of the Tefritorial Chamber of Com- merce by the Juneau Chamber was referred to the Executive Commit- tee for action at the next meeting, and a motion was carried to ap- point a special committee of three Chamber of Commerce members who are familiar with fishing con- ditions to confer and cooperate with the Executive Committee.
