SC|E |ENT|STS TO
VISIT SALT0h
SEA ABOUT: DEC. |

A party of noted scientists includ-
ing all of La Jolla institute, Publicity
Expert Bryant for the fish and game
commission, Will Thont tpson fish
and game commission scientist, Dr..
Ritter director of the Ia Jola~1nsti-
tute, DR.. Everman director Of the Aca-
denny of Science at San Francisco,
and perhaps Messrs. Van Camp and
Leehout of San Pedro, will be in the
Imperial valley the forepart Of Decem
ber to visit Salton Sea. The object
of their visit will be to secure data
which may result in the establishment
of research station on the banks of
the sea.
Calipatria is making great plans
for the entertainment of the disting-
uished visitors and they will be there
three days.
The mullet industry at Salton Sea
will be thoroughly investigated.
Figures obtained from Captain
Davis on prices of fish on the coast
last week are as follows:
$ Halibut, cents pound.
Barracuda, 6 cents a pound.
Salmon, IL cents a pound.
Mullet, 18 cents a pound.
Thus it will be seen that the Saiton
Sea fish command the highest prices
in the wholesale market.

WASTE WOOD IN
SOUTH AVAILABLE
FOR NEWSPRINT

NEW ORLEANS, Nov 2O-Hun-
dreds of tons of sawmill waste avail
able for newsprint and other coarse pa
pers are being burned daily, and there
are millions of feet of stumps and
small timber in southern cutover
lands which could be used for the
same purpose, J. F. Kidd of Lake Mis-
sippi today told the Southern Logging
Association.
Il understand" Mr.. Kidd said that
many small town weekly and semi
weekly newspapers have been forced
to suspend publication because of the
high cost of newsprint and that even
some of the city dailies are having a
rocky doad to travel, but it seems
that there is inefficiency and neg lect
of opportunity somewhere when raw
material is being wasted in quantities
with market crying for the products
which could be manufactured from
this wastage."
He advocated establishment through
the southern timber belt of either pulp
or paper mills. to convert into paper
what "now goes up in smoke"

l.4OO FREIGHTERS
AID COMMERCIAL
SHIPPING OF u. S.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-More than
l,400 freighters flying the American
flag have been added to the CONNER
cial shipping Of the United States,
through resources created by the war,
in the year which has elapsed since
the signing of the armistice. These
ships are today carrying on trade
with every country of the world, in
cluding Germany, Austria, and Tur-
key.
The detailed monthly statement of
the United States shipping board for
November l shows that 1920 new
ships, built and purchased during the
war, are under ALLEGATION to American
shipping firms. There are also 81
former German and five Austrian
freighters now in American service,
title to which is held by the shipping
board
In addition, there is the large fleet
of former German passenger liners
undergoing reconditioning from army
transport service preparatory to be-
ing put into American trade by Amer
ican shipping concerns.

100000 IN
NEW BUILDINGS
IN FL CEN R0

Nearly quarter of a million dollars
are being invested in new buildings in
Ell Centre, according to an authority
in the building business here.
More than half of this amount is
going into homes for the rapidly in
creasing population of our city. Many of
these will be for sale or lease, while a
goodly number are being built for the
owners personal use.
Building material men report big
increase of business this month, COM
pared with any of the previous months
this year. In fact, they are beginning
to experience difficulty in getting GER
tain kinds of material vitality necessary
in the construction of homes.
A good many houses under construc-
ton are now being held up on account
of being unable to get certain plumb
ing supplies.
Skilled carpenter labor is hard to
get-and keep. Stocks of building ma
terial are in pretty good shape, how
ever as the dealers had anticipated the
heavy demand
Far sighted builders feel that lower
prices, both of material and labor can
not be expected for a long time, and
probably never; especially in view OF
the persistent rumOr of a Is per cent
freight advance on January LIST.

PARIS, Nov. 19. = The American
delegation to the peace conference
has not approved the plan for mill
tary commission to succeed the su-
preme council in carrying out the Ger
man peace treaty and executing its
military provisions.
Failure to approve the plan prompt

to the effect that the Americans are
opposed to Marshal Foch as head of
the commission. This is said to be
erroneous.
But the American delegation is un-

LONDON WATCHES
SILVER PRICE RISE
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, Nov. 21-The rise in the
price of silver is being watched with
much anxiety here. Already the price
per ounce is almost equivalent to the
face value of the coins themselves. If
that point is passed it would pay to
melt the coins down and sell the metal.
This would be a state of affairs un-
precedented in English history. France
has already encountered this grave diff
ficulty, the silver in a franc being
worth more than franc.
