Pioneer of the Indian service in Alaska, Mr. Lopp came North in 1890 as a young man, just out of Hanover College, Indiana, and went to Cape Prince of Wales where he taught for many years. From 1910 until 1924 he was Superintendent of Education and Chief of the Alaska Division of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. It was he who stdrted the medical work -of the bureau in the Terri- tory. Since leaving the Bureau of In- dian Affairs in 1925, Mr. Lopp has spent most of his time in Seattle. Two years, however, he spent in Baffin Land, Norway, Sweden and Lapland in the service of the Hud- son’s Bay Company, establishing for the company reindeer herds in Baffin Land. Knows His Reindeer Probably there is no one in this country whose interest in the rein- deer is greater or based upon more sincere: ¢ and ‘authentic endeavor than Mf. Loepp. It was to investigate the reindeer herding question, for the Indian Rights Association that' Mr. Lopp made his long trip this fall. He interviewed - Eskimo herders and others associated with the indus- try from the farthest-south herds to’those in the far north. “The reindeer industry in Alaska is 'doomed,” Mr. Lopp said, “un- less ways and means are worked out to reestablish the old style of ‘close herding’ previously practiced in Alaska and followed in Siberia and Lapland for centuries.” Must Change System Under the present method of handling reindeer, according to Mr. Lopp, the Eskimos are able to get only 25 to 50 per cent of the deer in their roundups. This, he ex- plained, is due to the open herding system mnow practiced, and it is due to this system also that the average weight of the reindeer has been reduced from 150 to 100 pounds. When reindeer were first import- ed from Siberia, the Government brought with them Siberian herds- the best feeding grounds and to deer. In the last eight years, rein- deer have been handled by the |“open heroing” method, have re- come wild and difficult to round |up, Mr. Lopp said. “Close Herding” Intervlews with Eskimo herds- } men, many of whom were appren- |a week-end of thinking it over. |during 1934 and 1935, two dollars | tices under the Siberians who first But on the day, of the market re-| covery, Secretary Morgenthau again| | pointed a finger at the same sllun—‘ tion.
