NEW RULES FRAMED
FOR LIFE SAVING
London Board of Trade Alleged to
Be in Hands of the
Interests

London, July 31.-sydney Buxton, pres
ident of the board of trade, announced
in the house of commons today that the
board had framed new rules governing
life saving precautions on merchant ves-
sells, based on recommendations of the
committee which had considered the IT.
tanic disaster.
The new rules must be approved by the
house of commons before they are effec-
tive.t
Mr.. Buxton said there would be no time
to discuss them or Lord Mersey's report
on the Titanic disaster this season. The
rules, he continued, would be announced
during the parliamentary recess, and
would come up before the house of COM
mons early next season. He refused to
give any inkling as to their nature or OF
the committee recommendations.
Several newspapers here assert that the
board of trade is entirely in the hands OF
shipping interests and cannot be expected
to act impartially.

SHOULD
USE MORE FISH
Local Fish Merchant Talks
of Fish's Value as
Cheap Food

"Flsh is factor towards decreasing the
cost of living, but the average house,
wife shows no appreciation of this fact"
said d. b. Hudson, local fish merchant
yesterday.
Fish is considered by the most adj
! vanced civilized nations as one of the best
and most economical foods that can be
used in place of high price steaks and
other kinds of packing house products.
In the first place 1t is palatable. nourish-
ing, healthful and cheap. This Is not its
only recommendations for fish as food
Is better producer of energy than meats.
1t necesstates legs strain on the digestive
organs than meats, IL is stimulative to the
brain and lends strength to the body. All
Of this is proven by looking at The Japan
csc who are the greatest of fish eaters
and who certainly must be acknowledged
as great and wonderful people.
Now the cost of fish is its most i'm
portant asset. II Is by far the cheapest
food on the markets today. The average
American housekeeper has not seen fit
TO observe tna+ fish is so mucn more
economical than meats. She persists in
going to the markets or sending the SER
wants for steaks chops and all the va
rious assortment of meats. This Is done
notwithstanding the fact that meats cost
three to four times the cost of fish and
contain less nutrition. Yet the American
housclSeeper is the first to urge her hus-
band TO raise a hulahbulloo about the
high cost OF living when her own sort
sshtedness IN buying foods is the chief
cause of Der high butcher bills.
Two take for instance an advanced ma
ton like France where economy and thrift
is the household word. They are great
fish buyers. Germany and England pay
die respect to the fish as an economic
factor. In fact may say that all through
Europe an unusual supply of fish was
placed on the market and offered at say
cent cheaper than the usual price. the
markets would soon be thronged with the
thrifty housekecpers. In this country
cheap fish t. abundant. but the thrifty
housewife ignores the fish market 1t
seems to me that women instead Of seek
Ing votes SHOULD seek ways to lower the
house bills which must be paid by the
man who works.
1.-THE fish, its cost and nutritive value
is worthy of the investigation OF the
American houFekceper. For why should
we be extravagant and not live as well

better than we and spend lessss
