ALIENS SHOULD BE PROHIBITED
 FROM FISHING

H. M. Smith, commissioner of fish cries, says that for about eight years legislation affecting the fisheries of Alaska has been pending in congress. Protracted hearings have been held, and a large amount of testimony and data has been presented to the ap- propriate committees of the two houses. He says that the necessity for a revision of the existing salmon law has been especially pointed out by the various agencies and persons interested in the welfare of the fish cries of Alaska, and congressional committees have made favorable re- ports on bills embodying new legis- Iation.
 "No new fishery laws have, how ever, been enacted" says the com missioner "and the fisheries of Alas ka, at the most critical period of their history, remain subject to the laws which have been shown to be obsolete and inadequate. The bureau of fisheries is thus placed to great disadvantage in administering the salmon fisheries of Alaska, and cannot be justly held accountable for conditions, practices, and develop ments which, are not necessarily com patible with the perpetuation of the supply and in some respects are directly opposed thereto.
 ''The law of June IA, 1906, prohibit ing aliens from engaging in the fish cries of Alaska, shodfd be amended so as to give full force to it's bene- ficient purpose. The high prices re- gently commanded by salmon have attracted an unusually large number of persons to the fisheries of Alaska, including many aliens Instances have come to light where persons who renOunced their declaration of intenz tion to become citizens in order to escape the selective draft, and have not yet changed their civic status, are claiming or exercising the privi- lege of operating independently in the fisheries of Alaska, a right that should be restricted to bona fide citizens.

NEWFOUNDLAND
 TRADESHLFT
 TO NEW FIELDS

ST. JOHNS, N. Y, June 23 (by As sociated Press).-The steady shifting of Newfoundland imports from Great Britain to Canada and the United Ctates is shown in foreign trade fig ures just made public here Imports from Great Britain in 1909 were valued It $2,493,670 and in 1919 at $2,399, ,853. In the same period imports from Can ada increased from $3,937 ,0O9 to $12,- 577,684 and from the United States from $4,332,6SO to $16,569,236.
 The climate of Newfoundland is sc severe that all of it's food supplies, ex- a small quantity of meat have to be imported. Practically all clothing, fur niture and household goods also come f4om abroad. Until about 20 years aga these imports were divided almost equally between Great Britain, Canada and the United States, but since then the tendency each year has been to| buy less from the mother country and more from the nearer neighbors.
 AS the value of articles imported has doubled since the beginning of the war, the falling off in bulk of imports from Great Britain is much greater than indicated in the figures Of value. Although the difficulties of transport across the Atlantic, especially during the war, have had much to do with t5is, it is very largely attributed to the activities of American and Cana dian commercial travellers.
 Business interests here have been informed that British traders are try ing to set up machinery to re-establish trade with various portions of the en- pire which was disrupted by the war and are expected to give first atten- tion to Newfoundland. Dealers in this city are sending buyers to the British Isles this summer and say that they are prepared to fill their requirements tkere to the greatest extent possible, if they can be assured of delivery.

 There is an acute shortage of workers throughout the Northern division of the Alaskan Engineering commission. Men are needed all along the line to the south of Me- mana, old camps are running short handed on the Fairbanks line and new camps are difficult of establish ment.
 L. H. Carvey and Fred Hotchkiss, whe recently left for the Nazina placers, will mine on a large scale this season. Three extra teams were used fo hauling their outfit MT.

100. 900 THEFTS IN
N. Y. CITY IN YEAR
INDEMNITY COMPANIES ESTI-
MATE LOSS TO CITIZENS
WILL BE S7,500,000.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-If you go to
Williams street you will be told that
thieves this year are getting away with
haul of $7,500000 from citizens of
New York. If you go to Center street
the police will most likely deny it.
One hundred thousand cases is the
amazing total of theft in various forms
toward which the city is headed in
1920 they will inform you in the dis
trict where the indemnity companies
mainly congregate.
At police headquarters you hear
quite another story.
According to some of the indemnity
concerns, their books show that theft
cases have jumped 100 per cent over
the corresponding date last year.
Last year the insurance companies
paid out. $1,250,000 on New York loss
es. What the loss on unsecured prop
erty was can only be surmised but
the indemnity people say it is no idle
estimate to put if between two and
three million dollars. And the insur-
ance men tell you that this year is
proving twice as disastrous to the
property owner with the ratio rapidly
mounting.

GEORGIA is BEHIND
IN DRAINAGE WORK
REPORT OF CENSUS BUREAU
INDICATES A SMALL PER
CENT OF LAND IN ORGANIC
ED DRAINAGE ENTERPRISES.

Georgia is shy in organizing the
drainage work on lands in the state.
This is indicated by the reports of the
census bureau just received from
Washington, which shows that only
three-tenths of the land area of the
state is under organized drainage sur
vey. This report is dated December 81,
1919, and of course does not include
recent work along this line.
The total area of the state in or
ganized drainage enterprises is set
down as 104,006 acres. The cost of
organized drainage enterprises totals
$838,68
Figures For State.
The figures as given in the report
from Washington are as follows:
Total area in organized drainage en-
terprises, acres, 100000 improved
farm land, acres, 39,408; timbered and
cut-over land, acres, 1850; other I'M
improved land, acres, 45,0l9. Total
land area of state, acres, 81, $4,000.
Area of state in drainage enterpris-
es, 3 per cent; swampy or wet or sub
ject to overflow, in organized drain
age, acres, 44,091; cost of organized
drainage enterprises, total, $828,683.
Highest and Lowest.
Reports for several of these -coun-
ties and groups of counties over the
state are also given. These indicate
that Franklin county, with ll.0 per
cent in drainage enterprises, stands
first among the counties for which re-
ports are given. The district includ-
ing Jasper, Morgan and Putnam
counties, and the district including
Barlow, Cobb, Forsyth, Milton and
Paulding counties tie for lowest per-
centages with $40 per cent.

HOW DOCTORS

First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk
Purgative With Calotabs, the

Tablets that are Nausea
less, Safe and Sure.

Doctors have found by experience
that no medicine for colds and inhu-
enza can be- depended upon for full eff
fectiveness until the liver is made thor
oughly active. That is why the first
step in the treatment is the new, nausea
less colonel tablets called Calotabs,
which are free from the sicken;ng and
weakening effects of the old style calo-
mel. Doctors also point out the fact
that an active liver may go 2 long way
towards preventing influenza and is one
of the most important factors in en-
abling the patient to successfully with
stand an attack and ward off pneu-
monia.
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with a swallow Of water-that' g
all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight
est interference with your eating, pleas
ure or work. Next morning your cold
has vanished, your liver is active, your
system is purified, and you are feeling
fine, with hearty appetite for break
fast. Druggists sell Calotabs only IN
original sealed packages, price thirty
five cents. Your money viii be cheer

FIVE YEARS SEARCH
FOR MISSING LINK
EXPEDITION WILL SPEND S20,-
900 TO LOCATE BONES OF
APE IN ASIAN PLATEAU.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Organized
search for the we'll advertised but I'M
discovered missing link"-the re-
mains of the near-man that scientists
since the day OF Darwin have longed
to examines to be carried on in
Asia for five years, beginning next
February.
An expedition financed by $780,
1000 fund will penetrate remote regions,
and even if it fails to uncover rem
nants of mans rude prehistoric fore
bear it is planned to bring back to
New York great natural history col
lection.
The American Museum of Natural
History, which is sponsoring the ex-
plorations, is associated with the
American Asiatic society and the Asia
Magazine. These three will finance the
expedition, with the help of private
contributions by Mrs. Willard
Straight, ]. P. Morgan, George F.
Baker, Childs Prick, w. A. Hartman
and Mr.. and Mrs. Charles L. Bern
heimer.
Huntsmen and cowboys, as well as
erudite professors and scientists, will
be included in the big party. 1t is
planned to trail some of the widest
animals in the world in the Cobb Des-
ert and bring them to New York alive.

nous yak, snow leopards, giant pam
das and beautiful OGDEN monkeys, with

ment announcing the expedition. I'm
China is the takin, a, creature with a
veritable golden fleece strange, ex-
like animal that roams the highest
mountain valleys and actually repre-
sents an intermediate stage between
the antelope and the goat"
1t is the hope of finding the bones
of a prehistoric ancestor of man, how
ever, that is held highest by Roy
Chapman Andrews, associate curator
of mammals in the American Museum
of Natural History. Mr.. Andrews will
be in charge of the expedition. The
party will have its headquarters in
Picking.
In 1891 a Dutch army surgeon,
while excavating for fossils in central
Java, discovered part of a skull, two
molar teeth and a thigh bone that pro-
vided one of the most perplexlng
problems in the study of human an
cestry.
Leading scientists, however, believe
that Asia was the early home OF the
human race, and that whatever light
may be thrown upon the origin of
man will come from the great central
Asian plateau.

AMERICAN FIRMS DEMAND
FRANCE END LUXURY TAX
Might Stop ALI Trade in Dresses and

PARASITIC American chamber of
commerce in Paris has informed the
tax authorities of France that, unless
the luxury tax of 10 per cent is re-
moved on all dresses, laces, trimmed
hats and feathers exported to the
United States, France probably will
lose all her American trade in these
four commodities, which before the
war amounted to 408,000,000 francs a
year.
The total amount of exports in these
commodities for 1920 probably will be
less than one-fourth that exported
prior to the war.

BUENOS AIRES, November 5.-Ar-

been found that 100000 pesos have

payments to contractors for building
the capitol here. The present gov
