FISH EXPORTERS DISLIKE CONTROL
 BY GOVERNMENT

St. Johns, N. F., Aug. 1S-The colony of Newfoundland has initiated an attempt at government control of the export of cured fish, the most inn portant industry of the island. Over the protest of many of the shipping, fish exporting and other trading con- cerns, the legislature at its session recently closed enacted several measures to this effect.
 The most important of these creat- ed a board which will have full juris- diction, subject only to the governor in-council, over the exportation of codtfsh. Under its terms no one will be permitted to export fish without a license and licenses must comply with regulations to be prescribed d by the board with regard to the quality of the fish, the time when it
 may be shipped, the quantity that may be forwarded to any particular market and the minimum price that may be charged. Monthly statements of each grade of fish in the hands of exporters.
 Other measures provided for the grading of fish and the inspection of vessels to be used for exporting the product, most of which goes to Medi- terranean and South American ports. The sponsors of the 1egiSla ton said 1t was designed to improve the quality of the cured fish, to ensure its safe transport tation and to prevent gluts in foreign markets with consequent price cutting.

DEPRECIATION OF DOLLAR IS VERY
 DISCOURAGING

Twenty-four years ago the country was stirred by a campaign dealing with the currency question. It was claimed that free coinage of silver would so depreciate the dollar stand ard, that every dollar would be worth 50 cents only. This, it was said, would be of the nature of repudia- ton. Every man who had a. savings bank deposit would find that his dollars, for which he had worked so hard, were worth but half price.
 Now precisely the same thing has happened. The dollar has depreciat- ed, but from other causes. Every man who has manifested thrift and laid away money in a bank, finds that his savings are only worth half what they were.
 This has a most discouraging ef- feet. It tends to deter people from thrift. There are many people who would be willing to go back to the half of their present wages that thej formerly earned, if the prices then prevailing could be restored, and their savings again recover their original value. It would probably be for the benefit of the country.
 The change has been uneven1y dis tributed. Many people are getting much more than double their former pay, while many others are getting much less than that. This creates friction and class warfare.
 Everyone is going to protest against having his pay cut, at least until the cost of living has gone down a corresponding amount And it can't come down while the wage levels remain high. Some one element has got to make the move first to get prices back at least part way toward normal. The first element to yield should be the people who are making liberal profits They could cut their prices without suffering for it. They will greatly promote the prosperity of the coun- try and in the end their own, by pricking their own particular bubble

FIRST NATIONAL"
 CONTAINS OVER
 THREE BILLIONS

Philadelphia, Aug. 1s.-The com bined "Lisle Thread National Bank The Old Sox Bank" and the Feath- -er-Bed- Mattress Bank now hold more than s3,0oo, o,o0o,0o0 of the coun- try's cash.
 This is the estimate of William H. Hut, acting governor of the Phila- delphia Federal Reserve Bank, made of the loose cash being carried around in pockets and slowed away in various places. He was addressing an organization of business men.
 Even a small proportion of this three billions invested in Liberty bonds would bring them back to par, he pointed out, or if the money was deposited in savings banks it would inject new life into industry.

PRISONERS TO BE RELEASED FROM
 MARIAS ISLANDS

Mexico City, Aug. 1s:-Bearing or ders for the liberation of 500 pris- oners in the penal colony on the Ma rias Islands, off the west coast of Mexico, two physicians named by Provisional President Adolfo de Ia Huerta shortly will depart for the colony, with orders to establish sani- tary conditions on the islands.
 In a recent interview, Gilberto Valenzuela, sub-secretary of the in- terior, declared that these 500 pris- oners were sent to the islands to satisfy the personal vengeance of certain individuals influential dur ing the administration of President Carranza.
 Thereafter, persons actually con- victed of felony will be sent to the islands, but not those whose cases have not been heard by the courts. 5 Senator valenzuela said. Further more, more attention will be paid to the prosecution of thieves on a large scale-such as paymasters who have absconded with funds entrusted to their care, and other dishonest public mOfOyeS'' ''

MEXICO IS TO
 HALT EMIGRATION

Mexico, Aug. 1s.@Governmental ef- forts to stay the emigration of Mexican workers into the United States and to induce those already there to return to their native land have taken form in the official sup port given a corporation recently formed to develop 5oO,O00 acres of land in the Fuerte Valley of Sinalo, The company, in addition to a. fedora; concession, has been granted a sub sidy of s2,5oo,ooo by the state govern ment of Sina1oa and large tracts of land in that state. It plans to con- struct several reservoirs at Choix and a dam at San Bias, with canals on each side of the Fuerte river to be used for irrigation purposes. With land available for irrigation it is hoped to keep Mexican laborers in Mexico and secure the return of thousands who have emigrated to the United States.

 Exports show an increase of B. 096, 100000 francs. compared with the same period of last year. Imports also show an increase, over 2,061 millions, but this increase is almost entirely due to materials for manu- facture, which amounted to over l. s45 millions.

How 1922 Appropriations Are to Be Made

pairing appropriation bills heretofore

Under the new system the appro-

be made up of thirty-fve members.
There have been twenty-one members
of the committee heretofore. In the
past the appropriations committeshas
handled such annual supply measures
as the legislative, executive and judi
cial bills. the sundry civil bills and
the various deficiency bills
The six other committees whose
power in handling appropriations have
been transferred 10 the appropriations
committee are those on military af
fairs, naval affairs. agriculture foreign
affairs, post Office and Indian affairs
These committees will henceforth han
die general legislation relative 10 their

The change in rules does not affect
the committee on rivers and harbors,
which will continue the preparation Of
