FISHERIES OF SUM HAVE
UNIQUE TYPES
Dr. Hugh M. Smith, former com
missioner of the United State3
Tiureau of Fisheries, who for the
past few years has been adviser in
fisheries to the Siamese Govern
ment recently has written an
article dealing with the fisheries
of Siam, it was announced on July
12 by Lewis Radcliffe, Assistant
Fisheries.
Dr. Smith, who is recognized as
a world authority on fish and fish
eries, discusses in his article the
various types of fish habitating in
Siamese waters. He characterizes
the world fishing industry as sec
ond only to agriculture.
In a recent address before the
Bangkok United Club, Mr. Rad
eliffe also has been informed, Dr.
Smith set forth that Siam’s fish
eries “afford a veritable paradise
to students of fisheries.” Among
the fish which can be found in
the waters of that country are the
climbing fish, the walking, the
lighting fish, the wrestling fish,
the shooting fish, and the singing
fish, as well as many other types,

GET ACQUAINTED, NOMITES,
WITH THE REAL JUNEAU
EMPIRE
Empire Proposes to Cut Nomes
Representation.
In these legislative days, when
the Juneau Empire presents its axe
for you to grind, it would be well
to remember what the palavering
Juneau Empire really wishes to do
to your representation in the legis
lature. The following is from one
of its editorials;
“But Mr. Sutherland goes further
than to oppose Territorial Division.
He is opposed to a reapportionment
of the Territorial Legislature. He
favors a system that would give the
Second Division as large representa
tion in the Territorial Legislature as
the First Division notwithstanding
that the population of the Division
is much less than that of either
Juneau or Ketchikan and it pays
only something like two per cent of
the Territory’s taxes.”
