ALASKA HUNTS CHECKED
New Rules Bar Shooting in Some
Parts for TWO Years

Washington, April 2.-Alaska's big
game, which furnishes excellent
sport for wealthy huntsmen from all
over the world, is to receive greater
protection in the future, as the re-
suit of new regulations made public
today by the Department of Agricul-
ture.
Effective Immediately and for a
period of two years, the shooting Of
moose in Southeastern Alaska and
of mountain sheep in the Eastern
part of Kenai peninsula is prohibit
ed. The districts affected by the
new regulations are among the most
easily accessible to sportsmen.
Hitherto, Alaska game has been
protected only by a closed season
and the system of fees for shooting
and shipping licenses.

FLouTs MONROE DOCTRINE
Argentine President Calls Our Inter
probation of il Absurd

Buenos Aires, April 2.-The Amer'-
can Interpretation of the Monroe
Doctrine is declared to be absurd and
capricious by President Saen'z Pena
in his new book.
He says that President Monloe's
message has been made so elastic by
American Presidents that it might be
called the Guttaperch Message.
The doctrine, he asserts, is now only
an anachronism. and interesting as
the Martello Towers of England or
that country's wooden walls"
America did nothing, he says.
while Canning confronted Europe,
and she would lose nothing by aban-
doning the Monroe Doctrine now.
One OF the principal causes Of
Latin.American hostility to the Unit
ed States, according to the President,
is that the latter's attitude is cousin
ly rather than sistsrly.
