into the Hurt Building will have the
first opportunity of doing so this
week. That is, there will be num-
Der to take quarters whose leases
were signed as of October /. Then

that several additional weeks win be
required before the structure will be

 Lobster For Eggs Of The
 Humpbacked Pacific Salmon

Washington, Nov. S-In a few days a refrigerated tank car will start west carrying $500 Holsters. They are be- ing sent by the United States Fish Commission as a gift from the At lantic to the Pacific. The purpose is to try to stock the Pacific coast wa ters, now lacking in this variety of seafood with fine Mainel obsters. The Holsters will be placed around the San Juan Islands in Puget Sound, where the fish experts believe they will thrive. Past efforts have been scattered sporadic and have failed.
 In return for the Holsters, the Pa cific is sending to the east 12 million eggs of the hunpbacked salmon which have just arrived in New England for planting there to take the place of the native salmon which has almost disappeared.
