Jackson also said there have been complaints as to the new type of gear specified in the Alaskan fish- eries regulations. Local officials of the Fish and Wildlife Service explained that the “new type of gear” mentioned in the dispatch from Washington probably referred to the regulation that her- ring could be taken in Southeast Al- aska only with gill nets. Seining, the method necessary to get a volume catch, is prohibited except for bait purposes. e BRITISH LOSE MANY TROOPS IN EVACUATION, 25 Percent of Small Brifish Force Still Not Ac- counfed for ’ LONDON April 30.—Three-quar- ters of 60,000 British soldiers who tried to save Greece from the roll- ing blitzkreig of Hitler’s motorized trocps,” have been ‘taken away to fight on other fronts, it was offi- cially announced today.
