EXPECT RUSSIAN TO
BECOME FAMILIAR
LANGUAGE IN EUROPE

Especial to Gateway by United Pressl
LONDON, July 81. 49, The Russian
language, hitherto almost unused in
Western Europe, promises to become
a well-known tongue Of the future.
German, French and Spanish were
the three leading tongues taught in
Great Britain before the war. Ger
man has been almost abandoned.
French and Spanish, respectively, now
rank second and third to Russian
which is eagerly sought by persons
looking to vast commercial inter-
course between Russia and the Allies
after the war.
On the other hand, Spanish leads in
Germany, according to reports here.
The Germans see a temporary loss OF
trade with the Allies but intend to
breach the gulf with a greatly in
creased South American trade.

SEASON IN
ALASKA Is DELAYED
CATCH TO BE SMALL

Prolonged cold weather this spring
has made the Alaska salmon season
much later than usual and may pos
sibiy decrease the total catch, says
j. l.. Smiley, cannery man Of Blaine,
on his return from a trip into the
north, says the Seattle Times Of last
Friday. Smiley visited many of the
leading canneries of Alaska during his
trip. He is a guest at the Seattle
hotel.
at is not generally known that cold
weather in the spring will delay the
fish season just as easily as it does
the fruit and vegetable yield" said
Smiley yesterday. "When the water
is too cold at spawning time the fish
do not go up the stream, but remain
in deep water. When the season is
exceptionally late the total catch is
much smaller.
alaska cannery men are not max.
ing any predictions on the coming
season. They hope for a large catch
because Of an apparent good market,
but are unwilling to state that they
see prospects for the capture of many
fish,"
Smiley said the Puget Sound catch
this season as far as appearances at
present go will be nearly normal.
He expects great activity in fish can
ming in Washington this year
