At the Chamber meeting today Dr. W. W. Council reported he had consulted Seton Thompson, Assist- ant Alaska Agent of the Bureau of Fisheries, in the matter and had learned that the herring catch to date this year in the area men- tioned has been 1500 barrels, worth 70 cents a barrel to the fishermen. The injury to commercial and sport salmon fishing as a result of the herring operations amounts to much more than the $1,000 which herring seiners have obtained, Dr. Council claimed. .- — MAIL FOR COBLE There is mail at The Empire of- fice for Ray Coble, who may have it by cnmng present for stakes hL« | in- | death | il and| Alaska | | Catholic, at the East Street resi-| Dorothy White | COLIS OWNED AND _ OPERATED | i PETER . as the famous Saturday joins forces with the son of ( | drama than the star| CRISIS IN POLAND IS NOW NEAR | Over Danzig May Devel- op Within Few Weeks (Continued trom ge One) bombers would take off for a flight across the North Sea toward Great Britain.
