JAPS KILLED FOR
TAKING OUR FISH

By our own Wire. Publishers Press.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-A report OF the
killing Of five japanese fishermen and the
capture of twelve japanese prisoners on
Attu Islands. one Of the Aleutian group,
has been received here. The prisoners
have been captured by the revenue cutter
McCulloch, commanded by Captain J. c.
Cantwell
Word has been sent TO the Department
Of Commerce and Labor by Edwin Sims,
solicitor for the department. who is In
Alaska, to enforce the new law prohibiting
all persons not citizens Of the United
states from fishing in Alaskan waters.
The japanese killed were shot by Ameri-
cans on the Attu Island before the Nc
Culloch arrived.
There is no reason to expect nternation-
al complications as a result of the incl
dent, but there is no question that the
situation in the Aleutian Islands. espe-
cially as it affects the japanese, is q deli
cate one, and that numerous difficulties
are almost certain to be encountered in
enforcing the laws protecting American
citizens and their rights.
