Natives Object To New Regulations for Salmon Fishing A copy of the following resolu-, I lion was mailed to Ottawa by the iMt'llakatla Indians Saturday: I Tf.f Honorable P. A. Caruin, Minister of Marine and Fisheries, ! Ottawa, Ontario. I Honorable Sir It having been j recently announced in the press ithat it is the intention of your department to make certain drastic changes in the fishing regulations to the effect: : : That the coast be divided into! areas that existed prior to the ap-1 'irvr.intrm.nl nf the Duff fisheries, commission That the mitted only if the fish be gutted ' and packed in boxes with ice ; ! That the use of fish packers in connection with seiners be pro hibited; That no more cannery HJjnsea be issued. We, the Independent Seine Fishermen of Metlakatla, B.C., respectfully desire to inform yon of our views on the proposed changes as tney will affect us in the pursuit of our only means of livelihood. Re the proposals to divide the coast into areas and the restrictions a to the transfer of salmon from one area into another: Such restrictions, if put into eft-feet, whilst not seriously interfering with the operations of large organisations having establishments in many of these divisions, will, nevertheless, in the case of independent fishermen of small means, operating on a small scale, be absolutely prohibitive, and w would be forced to sell our fishy within the area in which it might be caught, thereby being compelled to accept whatever price the canners operating in that area cared to offer. We would be abeo- Mordie and M.

While we want all the roads we can get, the first thing ing changes :n the regulations is a road up the Skeena valley to connect at Kitsumlaum governing an industry of uch pro-with Terrace.

As regulations will bear most harshly was mentioned at the Board of Trade Meeting Friday on those least able to endure night, this is one of the biggest things that coulJ be done em. for Prince Rupert. I The proposed changes as an- CO-OPERATION WITH U. S. JT SSSTl tS Hon.

The Ottawa government is wise to make 8lrit"n of which would be borne clear in a public declaration that this country will not co-jXe ZZ ' " operate unless omer countries are wuung to give as wen. We, therefore, earnestly request as take. j that you will give th'is matter fur ther serious consideration and suggest the abandonment of these proposed regulations to whieh we have taken exception, and further suggest that an increase In the weekly closure be first given a lair trial, whieh measure without guestion will prove to be an effective mean to tKeltrtrend.
