HALIBUT BANKS
 BARREN SOON
UNCLE SAM SHOULD ACT AT
 ONCE WARNS STARRETT

Rrom the Tacoma Daily News
 Danger that the entire fish bus mess of Puget Sound will go to British Columbia, as has been re- ported, was denied by A. w. Star rett. superintendent of the New England Fish Company, at Van couver, B. C., in Tacoma on busi- ness. He said the superior trans rortation facilities of Puget Sound and the large market here and in the southern part of the United States are factors that cannot be overlooked. He said the halibut supply on the Pacific Coast IS rapidly decreasing ands that the. gov ernments of the United States, Canada and Russia and Japan should take immediate steps to establish a closed season in the spawning period.
 Mir. Starrett was formerly super intendent of the Pacific Cold Stor- age company of Tacoma. He left here three years. ago to build a large fisheries plant for the New England Fish Company at Boston. When the new Boston plant was eompleted he was transferred to the Vancouver office of the com pany.
 "Prince Rupert, B. C., is not a factor in the fishing business and will not be for many years, ii ever' said MT. Starrett. "Transporta- facilities there are inadequate. They have only three trains week m the summer and two in the winter Few fishermen can afford to bring a cargo of fish into Prince Rupert, say, on a Monday, and leave it wait there until Wednesday before start ing for the east. Then. it takes about two days longer for a train to reach the Atlantic coast from Prince Rupert than it does from the Sound.
 "About the only time a fisherman takes cargo to Prince Rupert IS when he has small catch and can not afford to run to Vancouver, B. C., or to the Sound.
 Another thing that operates a. gainst Prince Rupert is the uncer- tainty of the halibut supply. Form erly the waters of the entire coast from Puget Sound north were fill ed with them. Now they appear at Hecate straits for a while; then they will be found off Cape St. Elias or even farther north"
 However, Tariff Affects
 Mir. Starrett said, however, the removal of the tarif on fish and the giving of concessions by the Can adian government to American fish ing boats has taken a considerable part of the fishing business of Puget Sound to Vancouver, B. C.
 "Even with this it will not be possible to eliminate Puget Sound in the fishing business" said Mir. Sterrett. 'There is larger market on Puget Sound than there is in British Columbia. large ter ritory tributary to the Sound in the south and southwest that Van couver- does not have, while the transportation facilities from Puon+ Sound are better even than from Vancouver.

BRITONS N DRINK
of England Support King
I'm Stand to Clamp Lid on
Sale of Liquor.

London, April 6.-The question OF
prohibition and the example set by
the king in offering to abstain from
the use of liquors were referred to in
almost all the pulpits in London Sun
day. The archbishop of Canterbury,
in the Canterbury cathedral. strong
ly advocated voluntary abstinence
from drink by the people. He said
King George had announced his read
mess to set the example, and that he
was in a position to tell his hearers
how confident the king was that the
response Of the people to the sugges-
ton from abstention would be ready
and widespread.
According to statistics prepared by
the Times, there has been during the
last four months less beer drinking,
but a great increase in the consump-
ton of spirits. This is accounted for
particularly by the heavy duty placed
on beer in the last budget. The in
crease in spirit drinking, as shown
by the statistics, was especially not
able during February and March.

p TO HANSON
State Land Commissioner Comes
Back at Deposed Deputy.

Pierre, April 6.--State Land Com
missioner Hepperle has given an an
swer to the Hanson charges against
the land department in which he
takes the position that the resigna-
ton of Hanson was asked for on the
ground that he was working against
the best interests Of the state in that
department. and it was only asked
for after the situation had become so
strained that he could no longer re-
tain Hanson and keep the affairs OF
the office up to the standard which
should be maintained.
He denies that Gov. Byrne had
anything whatever to do with his ac-
tion in any manner. and that Hanson
himself was responsible for the whole
situation by his actions.
He admits the charge that his son
was drawing $110 per month as a
clerk in the department and getting
but SIS of 1t personally. but states
that the balance was deposited to the
credit OF the boy In a savings deposit
and he received the benefit from it
personally.

he claims that he is maintained be-
cause of efficiency, and on recon-
mendations of the forest ranger to
that effect. and that the increase in
salary mentioned is one which the
legislature provided for all rangers
alike and placing them on a par with
the government rangers in like work.
He enters a general denial as to
the charges of %favoritism in selling
lands and cites numerous instances
where Hanson shifted valuations to
suit his own convenience.
