Vote-seeking politicians and those whose selfish interests would be served by the elimination of trap fishermen claim laws could be passed prohibiting non-resident fishermen from catching salmon in Alaskan waters. THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT HAS RULED DIFFERENTLY. IT, THE HIGHEST U. S. COURT, HAS HELD THAT ANY LAW PROHIBITING NON-RESIDENT FISHERMEN IS IN VIOLATION OF THE CONSTITUTION. Here are the facts: In June, prohibitive burdei South Carolina wanted to passed a law requiring non-residents to pay a $2500 license fi Carolinans paid only $25 license and it was believed such a 1 ns on out-of-state shrimp fishermen. 1948, the United States Supreme Court declared unconstitutional a Seuth Carolina statute placing remove the competition of fishermen coming in from other areas. So the citizens ee for each of their shrimp fishing boats. South 00-fo-one fee would discourage non-residents. The court held that the fee was discriminatory and violated that clause in the United States Constitution guaranteeing equal privileges and immunities to citizens of various states. The decision of the United States Supreme Court in the South Carolina case will apply here in ‘Alaska if the Territory attempts to keep non-resident fishermen away. Actually, larger fleets of seine fishermen from Puget Sound and California would come north just for the short salmon season if trap fishing is abolished. There is nothing anyone can do to stop lhem..my' more than California or Puget Sound can prohibit Alaskans from fishing in the waters off their coast lines. Half of Alaska’s salmon comes from trap fishing. If traps go, the present 50 foot limit on seine boats goes also. Examine the facts. YOTE TO SALMON TRAPS! COMMITTEE OF ALASKA TR" OPERATORS S MR AR R
