In furtherance of its policy to aid
in all possible ways the development
of Alaska, the Alaska bureau of the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce has re
cently adopted the following resolu
tions:
Resolution relating to closed season
for halibut fisheries of the Pacific:
Whereas, the halibut fisheries of
the Pacific now furnish in great part
the nation’s supply of halibut, due to
the depletion of these fisheries in the
waters of the Atlantic; and
Whereas, it is essential to the pres
ervation of these fisheries that a clos
ed season be provided for the months
of December and January in each
year when it shall be unlawful to
fish for or catch halibut, and that
Buitable nursery grounds be reserved
for the propagation of halibut;
Therefore, the Alaska bureau, Seat
tle Chamber of Commerce and Com
mercial club, respectfully urges con
gress to enact into law S. 1542 or H.
1 1748, bills to protect and conserve
3 halibut fisheries of the Pacific
san, to establish closed seasons in
libut fishing in certain waters
sreof, and to restrict the landing of
libut in the United States of Amer
i and the territory of Alaska dur
f the closed seasons established,
d which further provide for the es
Slishme^t of a halibut nursery em
acing the outer coast from the
rthwest extremity of Cape Lynch,
;ceta island, to the northern and
rthwest shore of Noyes island,
Alaska; the provisions of said acts to
take effect only after the enactment
of concurrent or similar regulations
by the government of the Dominion
of Canada.
Resolution relating to wagon roads
in Alaska:
Whereas, the development of Alas
ka’s rich resources of mineral and
food products is a national need and
is dependent upon construction of
both railroads and wagon roads as.
recognized by congress in the author
ization of the government railroad
now being constructed in Alaska and
in repeated appropriations since 1905
for the maintenance and construction
of wagon roads;
Therefore, the Alaska bureau, Seat
tle Chamber of Commerce and Com
mercial club, respectfully urges on
congress the necessity of appropriat
ing such funds as will provide for a
comprehensive plan of wagon road
construction that will supply the ne
cessary feeders for the government
railroad and will open to settlement
other vast areas of Alaska, rich in
mineral and food resources, and of
appropriating such funds as will pro
vide for the proper maintenance of
the wagon roads constructed by the
government and which have tended
greatly to the development of Alas
ka.
Resolution relating to defense of
Alaska:
Whereas, Alaska occupies a posi
tion of strategic importance to the
defense of the western portion of our
country, and is unprotected and de
fenseless against foreign aggression;
and
Whereas, Alaska contains enormous
bodies of high-grade bituminous coal,
suitable for the use of the navy, which
is not to be found in any of our other
possessions bordering on the Pacific;
and
Whereas, the development of Alas
ka’s enormous resources is now of vi

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Rene Vivi
ani received the newspaper corres
pondents at the residence on Meridian
hill assigned to the French mission
and expressed his gratification over
the way in which the mission had
been received. He said:
‘‘I am indeed happy to have been
chosen to represent the greetings of
the French republic to the illustrious
man whose name is in every French
mouth today, whose incomparable
message is at this very hour being
read and commented upon in all our
schools as the most perfect charter
of human rights and which so fully
expresses the virtues of your race—
long suffering patience before ap
pealing to force; and force to avenge
that long suffering patience when
there can be no other means.
“Since you are here to listen to
me, I ask you to repeat a thousand- i
fold the expression of our deep grati
tude for the enthusiastic reception the
American people has granted us in
Washington. It is not to us, but to
our beloved and heroic France, that
reception was accorded.
“We are proud to be her children in
those unforgetable moments when we
read in the radiance of the faces we
saw the noble sincerity of your hearts.
And 1 desire to thank also the press
of the United States, represented by
you. I fully realize the ardent and i
disinterested help you have given by
your tireless propaganda in the cause
of right. 1 know your action has
been incalculable. Gentlemen, I
thank you.
“We have come to this land to sa
lute the American people and its gov
ernment, to call to fresh vigor our
lifelong friendship, sweet and cordial
in the ordinary course of our lives,
and which these tragic hours have
raised to all the ardor of brotherly
love—a brotherly love which in these
last years of suffering has multiplied
its most touching expression—you
have given help, not only in treasure,
in every act of kindness and good
will.
“And it was with a full knowledge ]
of the meaining of what you did that j
you acted. Your inexhaustible gener- j
osity was not the charity of the for- ■
tunate to the distressed; it was an af- I
firmation of your conscience, a reas- j
oned approval of your judgment.
“Your fellow countrymen knew i
that under the savage assault of a
nation of prey which has made of
war, to quote a ramous saying, its na
tal importance to the entire nation,
the gold and silver to strengthen our j
money reserves, the great deposits of!
copper needed in the manufacturing
of munitions, the unlimited supply of
fish products and the vast areas of j
arable lands from which can be ob
tained vast quantities of food prod
ucts;
Therefore, the Alaska bureau, Seat
tle Chamber of Commerce and Com
mercial club, respectfully urges on
congress and the national administra
| tion the immediate necessity of es- i
ablishing in Alaska such fortified na
val bases as may be required for the
protection of the territory; of opening
up such coal mines as may be neces-1
.arv to supply fuel for the Pacific
fleet of the United States navy: and
' fri p: by all passible action the
rational development of Alaska’s
great resources.
The three preceding resolutions
were adopted by the excutive commit
tee of the Alaska bureau, Seattle
Chamber of Commerce and Commer
cial club April 18, 1917, and by the
trustees of the Seattle Chamber of
Commerce and Commercial club Aprd
24, 1917.

%
tional industry, we were upholding,
with our incomparable allies, faithful
and valiant to the death, with all
those who are fighting shoulder to j
shoulder with us on the firing line,
the sons of indomitable England, a
struggle for the violated rights of
man, for that cemocratic spirit which
the forces of autocracy were attempt
ing to crush throughout the world.
VV'e are ready to carry that struggle
on to the end.
svriu now, as i resident wnson nas
said, the republic of the United States
rises in its strength as a champion of
right and rallies to the side of France
and her allies. Only our descend
ants, when time has removed them
sufficiently far from present events,
will be able to measure the full sig
nificance, the grandeur of an historic
act which has sent a thrill through
the whole world. From today on all
the forces of freedom are let loose.
“And not only victory, of which we
were already assured, is certain; the
true meaning of victory is made man
ifest; it cannot be merely a fortunate
military conclusion to this struggle,
it will be the victory of morality and
right, and will forever secure the ex- '
istence of a world in which all our
children shall draw free breath in full
peace and undisturbed pursuit of
their labors.
“To accomplish this great work,
which will be carried to completion,
we are about to exchange views with
the men in your government best
qualified to help. The co-operation
of the republic of the United States
in this world conflict is now assured.
We work together as free men who
are resolved to save the ideals of man
kind.”

The U. S. Government reports show that onl\
$40,000 was actually invested in Siberian Rein
deer which wen brought to Alaska via New
York and Seattle. The last and largest ship
1 ment was in 1902. The Government report?
now show a clear profit and valuation of over
$4,000,000.
Now our Reindeer are in the Kuskokwdm
valley, which means only a short drive to out
! Home Range and an unlimited market.

world war. may have a tendency to send meat as
high as wheat, which has increased 300 per cent
in the last year.
The directors of the Matanuska Reindeer
Ranching Co. has closed a contract with Dr. II.
C. Schaleben to assume the entire management
of this enterprise.
Dr. Schaleben is undoubtedly the best-post
ed man on Reindeer in Alaska, having been in
charge of the Reindeer industry for the Govern
ment for over five years.
This company now has money enough to put
a herd of Reindeer on its Range. The direct
ors have decided to let a few others in at the
same price so that tin* herd will be as large as
possible.
