WASHINGTON. March 1S.-Issu-
ance of a new order i'm council re-
stricting imports into the United
Kingdom has been anticipated here
for some time. but the belief has
been that they would apply only to
neutral countries and not to Canada
or other British domains or posses
sions.
American trade viii be seriously
affected by the action, but it. is
realized that since there is TO be no
discrimination there swill be no
ground for protest by the United
States. The subject has been dis
cussed and considered at the state
department for weeks as a result of
unmistskable limitations that the
step was impending.
While the urgent need of Great
Britain for ships TO carry necessaries
is recognized, it generally is believed
here that another important factor
in the situation is the desire Of Brit
ish interests TO equaliZe the rate Of
exchange between London and New
York. With imports from the United
States limited 10 articles and pro-
ducts imperatively needed. the bal
ance Of trade i'm favor of America
necessarily wo0ld be reduced and the
value of pound sterling ON this side
OF the water might get back 20 near
normal again.

AuToMoelLIsrs AND ROADS

/ Ninety per cent of the registration
! and license fees paid in 1915 by auto
mObilists to the States, of $16,213,3S7
was spent for the building and main
tenanCe of county and State roads, &C.
cording to a compilation just published
by the Office of Public Roads, o. S. De
partment Of Agriculture. In all, 2,445,.
G64 motor vehicles were registered in
that year and their owners paid a to-
tai OF $1S,245,713 for registrations and
drivers and dealers licenses. This is
an increase of $5,S63, 100 over 1914,
and an increase of 734325 in the mum.
Der of vehicles registered. Automobile
fees now defray nearly Z per cent of
the total amount on rural road and
bridge building, whereas in 1906 the
income from this source was less than
three-tenths of l per cent of the total
expenditure.
The growth of the volume of fees
and registrations is noted by the fact
that in 1901 New York. the first State
to require fees, collected only 1854
In 1906 only $4,000 cars were regis
tered throughout the entire United
States. By 1915. however the number
had jumped to the figure given, so that
is slightly more than one motor car
registered for each of the 2,375
miles of road outside of the incorpora-
ted towns and cities.
The relation between cars and road
varies widely in different sec
tons. There is only one motor car for
every six miles of rural road in Ne
vada, but nearly six motor cars for
every mile Of such road in New Jer-
sey. There is an average of one motor
car registration for every forty-four
persons in the United States. Iowa
leads however, with one motor car
for every Is persons, while only one
for every two hundred persons is reg
stered for Alabama.
In the number of registrations New
York State led in 1915 with 255,242; |
Illinois was second with 1S0,S32; Cal
fornia third with 1921; and Penn.
'ylyania fourth with 160,137. In gross
-eyenues received from this source.
however California led with $2,O27, .
I32; New York was second with ST.. I

registered came fourth in point of re.

THE FISHING INDUSTRY.

Fish are distributed by the Bureau
of Fisheries in every state of the UNI
ion, some 10000 individual applications
being filed annually in addition to
the large public plants of the socalled
commercial species in the Great Lakes
and coastal streams of the seaboards.
This phase of the bureaus work has
grown to enormous proportions, and
in the fiscal year ended June 80, 1915,
forty-nine species were propagated,
these including, in addition to fishes,
the lobster and several species of eco.
n6mical valuable freshwater mussels.
The total output of these was over four
and half billions, which yere planted
in every state and Alaska. Some idea
of the magnitude of the work of dis
tributing fish is indicated by the fact
that it involved 637,716 miles of travel
of which 1854 was by the bureaus
special cars and the remainder by car
messengers. These marine and fresh.
water fishes and invertebrates were
collected and Matched by 40 stations
an 95 substations located in Sd states
and Alaska. In addition S,404,000 food
and game fishes were rescued from ov-
erflowed lands and returned in safety
to the streams; otherwise they would
have persisted in the temporary ponds
left by the receding waters.
Solely by. reason of these fish.cul-
tural operations and similar activities
on the part of the states, the supply
of trout and of other game and food
fishes in streams and small lakes is
being maintained and increased, the
whitefish of the Great Lakes is holding
it's own. the shad in certain waters is
being saved from extinction, and the
effects Of exhaustive fisheries for the
Pacific salmon and certain marine
fishes are being offset. AS a result Of
transplanting, the Atlantic shad and
striped bass are abundant on the Pa
cifiC coast, and the former are being
back in large numbers to
supply the markets of the East Ger
tain depleted salmon rivers of Maine
recently have ben planted with hump
back salmon from the Pacific coast and
small runs OF breeding fish already
have appeared in several of these
streams, indicating that the nearly eX-
terminated Atlantic salmon may be
replaced by a worthy successor, better
able to cope with the new conditions
in the streams incident to industrial
