► By FRANK W. VAILLE
WASHINGTON. UP) — Represen
tative Ralph Rivers, urging abo
lition of fish traps in Alaskan wa
ters, has told Secretary of the In
terior Seaton the predicament of
protesting fish trap operators “is
largely their own fault.”
Trap operators recently told
Seaton the elimination of traps,
as proposed in Alaskan fishing
regulations now under study by
the Interior Department, would
be catastrophic to the industry.
They noted' the number of plans
and gear that would be rendered
worthless and the number of per
sons who would lose their jobs.
But Rivers, in a letter to the
Secretary, pointed out that Alas
kans voted in 1948 in favor of a
gradual elimination of fish traps
over a 10-year period. The pack
ers, he said, “would not go along.”
“So now they find themselves
in a predicament which is largely
their own fault,” Rivers said.
‘They have played the game to the
bitter end regardless of the dam
age to the salmon fisheries, and
might as well suffer the loss now.”
The Alaska congressman chal
lenged operators’ contentions that
it would take six or seven years
to provide enough of various types
of gear and boats to allow an ade
quate annual harvest of salmon.
“I think it can be done in half
that time,” he said, “and that a
shortage of gear for the next two
or three years will be a large fac
tor in the eventual restoration of
Alaska’s salmon runs.”
Rivers said it is regrettable that
closing of the traps will result in
loss of jobs for some workers, “but
the inevitable adjustment must be
made in spite of the element of
hardship.”
Estimates of those whose jobs
would be affected — totaling
2,317, including 776 Alaska resi
dents — were based, he said, on
“the direst predictions by the
packers as to the effect of banning
the traps.”
Rivers said at least one of the
12 canneries which industry
spokesmen claim will be closed if
traps are banned has not oper
ated since 1956 “and numerous
cannery consolidations would like
ly occur this coming season even
if traps were retained.”
Somewhat offsetting the losses,
he said, would 'be “an appreciable
amount of employment” in the
utilization of other gear.

gious leaders Of all faiths.
