SAN FRANCISCO, May 1s.-Cal-
ifornia anglers have had a disap-
pointing season thus far in the mat
ter of their favorite sport. Reports
from practically every section Of the
state are to the effect that streams
still are too high for good fishing
and the fish are running unusually
small.
These conditions are expected to
improve as the streams fall and in
another week or two good sport is
anticipated. The best fishing OF the
season thus far has peen found in
the Sacramento river in the Pitt
region and in the klamath region.

with a view of protecting this sport
in the future from the disrepute

result of questionable actions by
both promoters and boxers.

Washington association for the
Government of Boxing" an associa-
ton of sportsmen was formed with
Daniel Salt of Seattle as presi-
dent. The United States service

control the organization will exer-

 The first of two announcements by the Shipping Board, made public last night by its local offices related to these instructions to its bureaus along the Atlantic and the Gulf:
 Use all means required to protect vessels. If men refuse duty and will not work, pay off men and put civilian guards on vessels, swearing them in as deputy sheriffs. Use all precau- tions against fire, connecting up fire hose, when available, on deck. Re- move perishable stores and place in cold storage. Where men have left vessels and refuse to work, pay them off up to the time they have left and permit them to remove their persona effects"

Unless the War Labor Board gives a decision, those in touch with the situation to- day said the only prospect of settle ment lay in the reference of the men s demands to a new arbitrat ton board to be agreed upon between the union and the trustees.
 These demands call for an eight hour day with pay at the rate of 73 1-2 cents an hour, as compared with nine hours-ine eleven at a maximum of IS cents hour at present.

 The South Terminal into which the New York, New Haven and Hartford trains empty their passengers, was black with people. Officials said the big train shed was handling it's ca- pacity, both of trains and passengers. At the North Station, terminal of the Boston and Maine's suburban service, similar conditions prevailed. The single line of street cars which the Eastern Massa chusetts Railway oper- ated into the city from Salem, Lynn, Revere, Maiden.

Between 700 and 800 of the Employees Went Out

With a large number of men al- ready out on strike, machinists and iron workers employed at the Lake Torpedo Boat company threaten to cause the closing of the plant next Monday unless by that time the company grants the demand for in creased wages, a closed shop and a. A hour week. The formal demand be- fore the entire factory strike is call ed will be presented on Monday. Meetings will be held on the remain ing nights of this week to perfect the movement in the event of the company's refusal
 Between TOO and 500 employees of the hull department of the Lake Go. went on strike yesterday morning and are still out, although it was stated that they had only quit on account of the rain. Interviews with some of the men resulted in the informa- ton being given that they were pos itivcly on strike, although no state ment could be secured as to what form the demand would take or just what would be sought in the way of wage increases, hours or as to union shop.
 It was stated by these men that they were following IS foremen who had gone on strike. The previous ver- sion of the foremen's circumstances were that they were discharged for the convenience of the Lake Com pany, their services. being no longer required, since they were members of the Iron Workers Union. General Manager Brill, however, in referring to these said that they had quit be- cause they were dissatisfied with the rate of s1.16 an hour.
 It is known that agents of New Jer- sey ship building companies have been in Bridgeport making efforts to induce ship builders to go to work in the mosquito state and some classes Of labor have been offered as high as s2 an hour under a guaranteed con- tract of two years work. This line of work IS on commercial vessels and considered more stable than the build ing of war machinery and was allur- ing to a good many men.

 is purely between the Italians and
 President Wilson. The Italian press
 say that President Wilson did not

 Italian press is distilling hatred of
 act in the capacity he did. I must also say that every Italian-Am erican
 in this country is loyal citizen. This
 has been proven by the American army sent to France.
 While the population of the United
 States is only four (4) per cent.
 Italian, the American army of expe-
 dttion was composed of fully twelve
 CPD per cent. Italian-American
 boys, and big percentage of them
 volunteered their services to fight
 the common enemy-Germany Aus .tria, the latter the Jugo-Slavia of to-
 day, the Itaian-American press
 which you accuse of distilling hatred
 to the American press is that very same press that exerted the Italian American boys to take up arms against the common enemy.
 Going back on the question of Italy my dear Rev. Rose, I remem- Der very well when you spoke of the deeds of the Italian army when you said that it had to fight against three aHies-Austria, Germany and nature-but you soon forgot all about that, and are now thinking differ ently than you did when the help of | Italy was badly needed.
 You may ask me, if you are an | American citizen, why do you stick | for Italy? My answer to that would | be like the man who gets married; he marries his wife because he loves | her, but that does not mean that he | should forget his mother. It is espec- ially so when she is in distress and ] needs his help. He may love his wife as much man can love, but next l comes his mother. If his wife has 1 trouble with his mother, it would be | his duty to step between them and | make peace and not attempt to strike | either one or the other, but he would | be justified to tell either his mother | or his wife, as the case may be, that | she was wrong. Therefore, no matter | how much one loves America, he has | always some love left for some other I country in which he was either born | himself, or his father or mother | come from or even his grandfa ther or | grandmother came from, and I dare | any one to dispute this fact-even the ! editor of the Bridgeport Sunday l Post"

At the hearing before Judge Banks that after the sale of the stock of the Dorsen Dry Goods company to MT. J Kari of New York, B. W.

He said, ''Willett called my brother to the fourth floor and said to him, 'I want you to give me that claim You have been stalling.' And he called him vile and abusive names and threatened to kill him if he didn't assign it
 According to Harry Dorsen, Will lett claimed to be untitled to the stock and assets of the Abel Co. by virtue of the a agreement he had made with the DorsenS that he would pur- chase the stock of the DorSen Dry Goods Go. from the receivers and af- ter deducting his claims he would turn the store back to the Dorsens- "He wanted the claim,' said Dor sen, ''so that he could present the claim which the Abel Go. had against the Dorsens for a breach of the | covenant to rent the section of the store on Main street for a long period of years"
