Residents of the Territory didn’t personally have much use for game laws, and, there wasn't much use for the regulations o so far as true Alaskans were concerned because they knew che value of wild life to their very existence with eho alt that excellent conservators. They didn’t waste or loot, but took game for their needs only. As time rolled along me control became an ac- cepted fact and the Territory took its first direct in- “terest in it with the establishment of the Alaska . Game Commission. Even with this venture there were still a great many residents of the Territory who sthought it was mostly a waste of money, and, at best, | a necessary evil There may 50, but re- be a few who still think winter, finds his district over-run eager to take game and fur as fast th little of the conservation wisdom sourdough used through but not depleting the supply. to it that his neighbor rap line in the with newcome! as which possible, w the old the years what he needed nd, incidentally, seeing did he same thing An a vesterday’s Empire based on reports sion o the Commi: reveals that the old sourdougt indings is antiated by the records. In 1936 here were 4,172 trappers’ licenses issued in the Ter- ritory. This year the Commission estimates the num- ber will reach 10.000. It has been going up rapidly ear by year. Revealing, too, that these newcomers iave not the conservation wisdom of the oldtimer, nor, in many instances, the desire to-keep their b &5 on a sound basis. is recorded that game law vio- tions jumped from 118 to 329 in two years and that fines from conviction for violating the law cared from 0 to '$9,515. *And it isn’t the oldtime Alaska trapper who is runhning afoul of the law Says Executive Offtcer Frank Dufresne of.the Com- mission: “Without a doubt the greater part of our trouble now lies with the newcomers to the Territory, for the most part aliens.” down to the simple fact that industry, third largest industry in < world famous game fields have It seems to simmer Alaska’s gre: the Territory, an been caught in the tide of modern progress which is And, if we are to retain industries and big game as 18, it is apparent that we protection rather than just as we keep constantly moving toward con- servation of our greatest industry, the commercial fishing business. so that it might not be ravaged by despoilers for future years.
