ALASEA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLIC, QGEORGE D. CLOBE, Tnc,, National Newsp \vc with offices in_San Francisco, Los presenta- Portland, SEATTLE REPRESENTATIVE — Prank J. Dunning, 1011 Americas Bank Building HOSPITALS AND HERRING It is encouraging to read that the Senate has added to the Interior Department supply bill appro- priations of $250,000 for treatment of tubercular Al- aska Indians, $34,000 for investigation of causes of depletion of the Alaska herring supply and $25,000 to continue the study of the king crab fisheries. As we have contended in these columns many times, facilities for the treatment of tuberculosis are Alaska’s greatest need. The hospital which the -Sen- ate wants built will be a big step toward the day when we will really be able to cope with the disease in the North. The appropriation for the herring study brings to the nation’s attention a critical situation in an industry vital to national defense as well as Alaska economy. Principally because the money for scien- tific research has not been available in the past, the Fish and Wildlife Service this year cut herring quotas and closed reduction plants with the result that Alaska’s normal production of herring oil will be halved. The defense industries which rely upon herring oil—and there are such industries—will be seriously hampered until production can be pushed back to the previous average yield of approximately 5,000,000 gallons of oil. The $34,000 will enable the Fish and Wildlife Serv- Prestdent Manager Materials of the Office of Production. Managempm.f And the President, by a proclamation issued Margh 27, has put fish oil under the export control sys- | tem In order to work out fishing regulations, the Fish |ana wildlife Service conducts a program of sci- entific research. With regard to the herring indus- try, however, the extent of that research, due to the small budget available to the Service, is such as to!| make estimates of the abundance of fish very dif- ficult. The present Alaska herring investigation has a staff of only one man and operates on a budget of $7,500, which must include wages, transportation, maintenance in the field, scientific equipment, and |so forth. It is patently impossible to conduct'a survey of a complex industry stretching over a couple of thousand miles of coast line with such limited facilities. Lacking sufficient scientific data, the Fish and Wildlife Service has had to preuy' much shoot in the dark on quotas for the herring| industry. The Service has taken the position that| to err on the side of conservation is wiser than to take a chance on depletion. There is an element of grim humor in the fact that the regulations cutting down on Alaska’'s| herring-oil production were issued by the Department of the Interior on March 4. For Germany and| Britain are waging in the North Sea a side battle| for fish oil. And it was on March 4 the English Navy staged its sensational raid on the Lofoten Is-} lands. The raid’s purpose was to destroy the her-| ring-oil factories and storage tanks. ! A few days ago the papers carried a Stockholm dispatch stating that fish—hungry Norway’s last un- rationed food—would be henceforth rigidly controlled. 7o cod or herring can be sold fresh for food or| alted down without special permit from the an&} According to the article, this step was taken so that| the bulk of all fish caught can be reduced to fish, oil and ri;;: meal. The brown-shirt blitzkrieg ma-| chine needs fats and vitamins to balance the diet of the army and of industrial labor. And even more important, the news story continues, fish oil is an| important element in the manufacture of certain ex- plosives. Germany's gain is our loss. America’s leather- tanning industry last year used 12,000,000 pounds of Norwegian cod oil. With the source of supply cut off, it had to find a domestic substitute. The mixers| of cattle and chicken foods, the paint manufactur- ers, and others are in the same fix. These people? find that Alaska's herring oil fills the bill. The problem is to secure a sufficient supply. This the appropriation for scientific study will| help us accomplish. The $34,000 involved is small.| The industry’s stake—$6,000,000—is large. Labor's stake—1,200 jobs—is important. Above all, the .con-| siderations of natiohal defense demand that we take| this step toward a permanent solution of the her- ring production problem.
