PoRPoISE FISHERY is OLD
Been In Existence at Cape Hat
teras for 200 Years.

One Of the oldest and least known
industries in America is the porpolse
fishery which has been operated from
Cape Hatteras In North Carolina for
about 200 years. II should attain an
unusual prosperity in the next few
years, for the bureau of fisheries is
urging more general use of porpoIse
hides In place of cowhides. 1t is an
excellent leather, and could undoubt-
eddy be used more widely.
Heretofore the most valuable prod
uct OF the fishery has been the oil
which is extracted from the jaws of
the porpoise. and is worth about $40
a gallon. II Is universally used for
lubricating watches and other very del
icate mechanisms. The body blubber
Is also valuable. Attempts to manu-
facture fertilizer out OF the carcasses
have failed because Of the distance
from fuel supply.
The pOrpolse are taken at Hatteras
in selnes, operated from the shore, and
II is probably the only place In Amer
len where this has ever been done
successfully. During the fall, winter
and spring many porpOlses are seen
or the South Atlantic coast, and at
Hatteras they come within few hun
dred yards OF the surf. They are
taken by spreading seines about 200
Yards outside the surf lines. As soon
as the porpoises have come inside the
seines, II Is dragged ashore. Often n
whole school Of these sea creatures is
taken in a single haul.

military power, peace which would not only defeat the obiect of the United States in entering the war, but would place this Nation in grave danger of future aggression rom Gcrnany He ponited out that the military masters of Germany planned to throw a broad belt of military power across the very cen ter of Europe and beyond the Medi- terranean into part of Asia. This purpose has been nearly fulfilled thru the subjeCtion of Austria-Hun- gary Bulgaria and Turkey and thru the conquest of Serbia and Rumania
 The only chance left to the mas ters of Germany of retaining the ad- Nantages thus gained, and of per- petuating their domination over the German people. is the enactment of an immediate peace upon terms fav- oraDle to themselves. Should thev succeed in this, their prestige and political power will be secure. America itself would be menaced and all the rest of the world will be compelled to remain armed to the teeth to make ready for the next as- sault of the German military pow CT.
 Tn his note to the revolutionary government of Russia, May 26. i9i7, President Wilson justly said that:
 The position of America in this war is so clearly avowed that no man can be excused for mistaking it. She seeks no material profit nor aggrandizement of any kind. She is lighting for no advantage or selfish object of her own, but for the liber ation of peoples everywhere from lhe aggressions of autocratic forca'n
