Vivian engine. It is understood that Capt. Hanson Is to turn over his former boat, Fox, to his son. The Star Welding & Machine Works has about completed a big engine overhaul Job on Capt. Merrill Sollow's halibut boat Relief which will be ready within the next few days to depart for her maiden trip of the season to the fishing grounds. Clutch and main bearings of the vessel have been given particular attention. Herb Ristow, who Is logging in the vicinity of Swanson Bay, Is In port with his diesel powered boat which is undergoing crankshaft and other repairs at the hands of the Star Welding & Machine Works. Engine Overhaul Charlie Miller's trolling boat Is another vessel which has been un dergoing overhaul of engine re cently at the Star Welding & Ma chine Works. Angus Mclvor has bought a new 15 h.p. Vivian engine for his boat Klkl which is usually used during the summer in fisheries patrol ser- vfce. Whether or not Prince Rupert will be represented next June In the yacht race from Seattle to Prince Rupert is, as yet, uncertain. That the port should be represented, since it is being honored with being made the terminus of the 1930 race which will, undoubtedly, give a lot of favorable publicity to the place, seems to be the opinion of most everybody, but who can be Induced to enter is the question. There are several local boats which should be able to make the trip quite nicely, notable among these SI being Dr. W. T. Kergln's Full Moon, gi While Dr. Kergln has been, giving the matter consideration, it is understood that he feels that he can hardly spare the time for the trip. If he is unable, it is to be hoped that at least one other boat may be Induced to enter and win. Two more new Prince Rupert halibut boats are about to get away sAitin their maiden voyages- to the fishing grounds. Olof Andreassoh's new 50-footer Qony, which was built during the winter at the McLean yard, has had a 29 h.p. Rap engine Installed by the Pacific Machine Works and, after being duly outfitted, should get away In a day or so. In two or three weeks George Cook's new 52-foot boat, built by Y. Suehiro and given the nomenclature of "Teenle.Mllly," will depart. Hi this boat there Is now bo- of the Pacific Salvage Co. here. It is likely that the Georgia River will not be taken back to Portland Can al until the season's operations commence at the mine after which she is named. Japanese vs. Russians Canada some years ago took steps to discourage Japanese fishermen in British Columbia waters by reducing the number of licenses in force and refusing Japanese the privilege of securing new ones, and now Soviet Russia has adopted strong measures against Japanese fishermen on the Siberian and Kamchatka coasts. Japanese fish-cries Interests are somewhat alarmed by the activity of the Russians on the Kamchatka fishing1 grounds and the reported Intention of the Soviets to obtain control over a large proportion of :the available, fishing zones. It Is t reported that the Russians plan to take over more tnan rirty per cent or the salmon fishing zones Dn Kamchatka. Last year they held approximately forty per cent. Every year the authorities at Kamchatka hold an auction at which bids are of fered for the fishing zones. The Soviet in the past restricted the ac tivity of private Russian operators with the result that Japan ha? been able to obtain most of the territory. The Soviet has apparently changed Its policy, however, and has authorized the Russian operators to go ahead and secure as many licenses as they desire.
