Alaska News at Wash. D. C.
March 4th was a day which held
interest for Alaskans both nation
ally and locally. Alaska led the
States in instructing her Democra
tic delegation to support Franklin
D. Roosevelt for Democratic Pres
idential nominee. Today that nom
inee is President of the United
states. March 4th also marked
the induction of Anthony J. Dim
ond into the office of Delegate to
Congress from Alaska. Mr. Dnnond
was in the procession that went
out in historic fashion from the
Senate chamber to the east porti
co of the Capitol where the oath
was administered to the incoming
President and his inaugural ad
dress delivered.

The Delegate is seeking through
the Senate finance committee to
exempt Alaska employees of the
Alaska Railroad, from the provis
ions of the economy bill now
pending in Congress, which pro
vides for further reduction in Fed
eral salaries. This reduction is
asked because of the high cost of
living in Alaska. Exemption is also
asked for Alaska federal employees
from the provisions of the portion
of the act referring to leave of ab
sence. The House refused to per
mit any amendment whatsoever
to the bill. The leaders feared that
to permit any amendment might
so delay the bill as to further ser
iously the public welfare. Even if
the bill passes, there is still dis
cretion given to the President to
make the reductions in accordance
with the reduced cost of living. So
if the bill passes in its present
form, Mr. Luther C. Stewart, the
president of the National Federa
tion of Federal Employees, and
Delegate Dimond will immediately
direct the attention of the Presi
dent to the greatly increased cost
of living in the Territory of Alas
ka as compared to the cost of liv
ing in the United Sttaes proper
and in this manner seek to prevent
any reduction in pay of the fed
eral employees in Alaska including
of course, the employees of the
Alaska Railroad.

Under the new clam regulations
which have just been announced
by the bureau of fisheries, the
open season for the Cordova clam
beds will extend from August 15
to July 1. The former regulations,
announced in December, 1932,
opened the season from August 31
to July 1 and closed the season
during the entire month of March.
Under the new regulations the lim
it on the regional pack is placed
at 30,000 cases which, however,
may be taken any time during the
open'season. This gives the local
caner an opportunity to can any
part of the 30.000 cases whereas
in the former regulation there were
27,500 cases allotted to the period
between April 1 and July 1.
In addition, the Bering Sea area,
a red fish section which has been
closed for the past six years against
commercial fishing, is thrown open
this year on the first of June- This
is for the benefit of the fishing
population in the vicinity of Kat
alla.

A FULL CARGO
Full cargo load and passenger j

ship Discoverer, under the com-,
mand of Captain Heinie Berger,!
which is said to be enroute to I
Seward from Seattle. Four auto-1
mobiles and 1,000 feet of sewer ;
pipe are aboard.
WITHHELD FOR III
Private word from Washington,
D. C., is to the effect that it will
be quite some time before any
Alaskan appointments are made,
! with the possible exception of the
! Governor.
President Roosevelt announced
a few days ago that for the dura
! tion of the present financial emer
5 gency, at least, no attention will
! be given by the administration to
.^he matter of appointments, and
that the first efforts by the ad
ministration will be directed to
j ward the solution of the problems
before it._ _
INSPECTOR HERE
J. B. Loftus, Territorial veter-!
inarian and fur farm inspector,
was a local arrival Saturday from
the Interior. Mr. Loftus, headquar
ters are at Matanuska. While in
Seward he is inspecting the lo
cal herd of the Seward Dairy
which has passed inspections 100
per cent for five years.
1 A railroad worker with the local
! extra gang, of French extraction,
j has rigged up a short wave receiv
i ing set in one of the bunk cars
and each morning tunes in with a
Paris broadcast.
I Harold L. Ickes, was the guest of
I honor.

I The Delegate has gone on rec
: ord as being opposed to the con
j tinuance of Mr. Henry O’Malley
I as Commissioner of Fisheries. So
far as is known to the Delegate’s
office, there are only two candi
dates for this position—Winiam L.
Paul, of Alaska, and Frank T. Bell,
secretary to Senator Dill.
* * * *
The Delegate has made an ef
fort to interview as many Senators
and Congressmen as possible and
has found a. strong disposition
among most of them to support
the policy of the Alaska Demo
cratic organization “Alaskans for
Alaska,” in regard to political ap
pointments. The Postmaster Gen
eral has declared himself generally
in favor of appointing local res
idents to postmasterships.
Judge James Wickersham left
| for the Pacific Coast where he will
spend some time before returning
to Juneau to reenter the practice
of law. Before leaving "Washing
ton, he and Mrs. Wickersham en
tertained a number of Alaskans
and extending many courtesies to
the incoming Delegate. Will Steel
will remain in Washington for
some time before returning to
Alaska.
