outcome of quite another situation,
and apparently devoid Of any senti-
ment except that inspired by dollars
and cents. Mr. Bowers explains his
proposal on the following grounds:
Whales of the various species
found in North Pacific waters have
been growing less abundant in the last
decade or SO. The whalers find 1t
more and more difficult each year to
secure a profitable catch. In recent
years the establishment OF whaling
stations on the British Columbian
coast and out in southwestern
Alaska has caused rapid decrease of
whales off that coast. One or more
