Approximately eight miles of ex- cellent spawning grounds for sal- mon will be opened up by the ladder, to be completed sometime in April, in time for next summer’s run. Construction is on a “50-50" basis by the Fish and Wildlife Service and the Territorial Fish Commis- sion, with work to go through the| winter. Falls Creek was chosen as! the first cooperative endeavor in this direction tecause of its avail- ability and convenience during which ordinarily would shut down| construction efforts in most areas. | While not the first ladder to be installed in the Territory, it will be the first which will have a con-| stant flow of water no matter if the tide is in or out. Other ladders | —some of them crude affairs of| wocd and which literally “fell apart” shortly after construction— have not proven up because of faulty planning or construction. This ladder will not be beset by these difficulties, according to Clarence Rhode, director of the FWS, and C. L. Anderson, director | . the Territorial group. | GOOD RESULTS SEEN An optimistic outlet is foreseen | by the men upon the ladder's going‘ into operation. A similar creek, with similar spawning grounds six miles south of Wrangell, known as Anan Creek, produces some; €,000,000 fish, and the same number ic forecast for Falls Creek when mon are able to begin their climb.” A few silver salmon now are atle te get up two falis around which the ladder will go, but humpies and | The at the base of the first falls in ieep water, which results in very few roe, investigation has found.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA feet long, and will describe an S curve, In two sections, the lower rortion empties into a pool below the upper falls, and from there the salmon, after resting, may begin their final lap upward. Total rise is 34 feet. WATER LEVEL CONSTANT The Fish and Wildlife Service has devised an automatic. gate, or “weir” which will be installed at the top portion of each section. When water is low, the gate will open wide; when water is high, it will close so that each “step” in the ladder will have the same mount of water in it. Each will be eizht feet wide and from 10 to 20 feet long, depending on whether it is on the straight-away or curve. In taking the ladder around the lewer falls, a 13-foot blast must be made in solid rock to house thé ladder. Blasting to change the stream's course and lower the pool tetween fails was complete last week. This was done so the ladder’s location would not be flooded by water coming down the upper falls. A crew of five men is working daily on the project, aided by port-| able generators housed in a small shack. They are able to return each evening to Petersburg. BEST GROUNDS Both services are looking eagerly at Hasselburg Lake on Admiralty Island, which they hope to bring to the sea in the same manner. In area 107 miles square, and 247 feet above sea level, it is looked upon as perhaps the best potential pawning ground in the north, with the possible exception of points on Bristol Bay and Cook Inlet. Actual surveys have yet to be made, tut it is believed a number ot short ladders to help salmon over the highest falls will turn the lake into a giant fish “factory.” Numerous “redfis] live in the lake now, according to Lewis G the Territorial Commission, evi- dence that once sockeyes had access to the area. The fish, which only grow eight to ten inches long and are commercially worthless, are stunted because a sockeye must grow up in salt water to attain full size. Their presence indicates, how- ever, that ample food is available, HARRY WHAM WILL SHOW MOVIES AT KIWANIS MEETING HARRY Wham, versatile enter- tainer at the Baranof Hotel, will “double in brass” to give the pro- gram for the Kiwanis Club tomor- row.

DUTCK FLAG DROPS IN INDONESIA AS NEW NATION BORN (By the Ascociated Press A new nation rose in the east today—the United States of Indo- nesia. In Amsterdam, Queen Juliana of the Netherlands proclaimed inde-| pendence for the nation of 77,000,000 Indonesians in the Southwest Pa- cific. It had been Holland's colony for 300 years. In Batavia, capital of the valu- able necklace of Indies Islands thousands cheered as Holland's tricolor was pulled down and the red and white flag of revolutionary Indonesia was run up. The flag ceremony followe signing of the protocol of tra of authority in the gleaming whit palace of the Dutch High Commis= sioner. The two ceremonies—in opposite parts of the world—took place simultaneously.

Queen| Juliana, in a three-minute-speech, congratulated the new nation which although sovereign and independent i5 retaining the tie of the Dutch Crown. The ceremony was opened by Netherlands Premier Dr. Willlam Drees who confirmed the ratifica- ion of the independence agreement which resulted from 10 weeks of Dutch-Indonesian round-table dis- ussions last summer. The central figure in the Batavia elebrations was 27-year-old Sultan Hemangku Buweno, mier of the new United States of ndonesia. He accepted the turn- ver of authority from the Nether- ands High Commissioner A. H. J. Lovink.
