THE NEW FISHERIES COMMISSIONER
-- I
In the first public hearing on the question of fish
eries policies, rules and regulations, held by United
States Commissioner of Fisheries Frank T. Bell, Seward
had an opportunity to form an impression of the new
incumbent by a close-up contact. |
The contact left a good impression, especially of the j
personality of Commissioner Bell.
He encouraged all who had ideas or suggestions to
offer to be perfectly free in expressing them, and when
there was tardiness he solved the problem by injecting
good-natured and appropos stories.
This human trait was productive of the encouraging
belief that Alaska will be included in the “New Deal”
being accorded the remainder of the nation by President
Roosevelt. ,
Having extended the hand, and it having been grasp
ed with that sincerity characteristic of Alaskans, there
s little doubt that many hitherto perplexing questions
regarding the fisheries wTill be composed with mutual
understanding and fair play.
SENATOR JOHNSON B[
OPPOSES FOR REELEGTJON
Of REPUBLICAN PNRTT
BAKERSFIELD. Calif., June 26.
26. —A determined fight by Cali
fornia republicans to prevent the
reelection of United States Senator
Hiram W. Johnson, progressive re
publican senator, at next year’s el
ection, was forming among the Old
Guard leaders. The movement was
launched by Mark L. Requa, repub
lican national committeeman, at
a meeting of a hundred repub
lican committeemen from 20 Cal
ifornia counties here.
Requa bitterly assailed Johnson
and issued a call for a state con
vention to name a candidate for
senator. Requa charged that there
had been a determined and partly
successful effort to destroy two
party government i n California.
“It has been motivated by certain
selfish individuals, most outstand
ing of whom is Hiram W. John
son, in order to secure their ten
ure of office regardless of the pub
lic interest,” he said.
Johnson, who abandoned his
party last fall to openly support
the successful candidacy of Presi
dent Roosevelt, is expected to be
a candidate for reelection next
year. Should he be ousted from
republican ranks he probably will
run as an independent carrying his
admittedly large following with
him and splittin gthe party’s nor
mally majority vote in this state.

i HAITIAN NEGRO ATE
BERRY AS MEDICINE
AND TURNED WHITE
MONTE CARLO, Monaco. June
26.—The Monacan consul at Haiti
has informed the foreign office
here of the case of a Haitian ne
gro, Jean Joseph Ysmeon Dauphin,
reputed to have turned white after
taking a native berry given him as
medicine by a voodoo doctor. He
is 56 years old.
The p-lant is known as “Roiry”
and consists of oval red and black
beans. Dauphin went into a state
of coma after taking the drug and
emerged with white skin. It was
months before friends or relatives
would associate with him, thinking
him to be a “combie,” or dead man
brought to life by voodoo.
The director of public health in
the municipality, Dr. Jean Marsan,
has asked for further details and
specimens of the plant for exam
ination.
A forest fire flared up on Grant
Creek, Moose Pass, Saturday night,
necessitating sending forest rang
ers and wardens to fight the blaze.
The wind swept it across the rail
road tracks toward evening but
it was believed the rain which be
gan to fall.lightly, would aid in
checking or extinguishing it.
