Huntjno Alaskan Bear.

The Alaskan bears have been hunted
with perfect safety from boats among
the coastal islands, and they are also
comparatively easy to kill along the
streams where they come in the fall
to catch salmon. In this hunting the
hunter lies in wait, and pots bruin
from safe distance. But at that time
of the year the fur is not prime. The
true sportsman goes up into the noun
tain in the early spring, still-hunts his
bear and kills him often at close quar-.
ters-unless he gets killed himself.

So long as goods are scarce, so long

 GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, April a. Timo- thy Shea, President of the Brother hood of Trainmen, presenting his claims before the Labor Board this morning, warred against the delay in granting demands, saying that the men were being fed up on promises and were now tired of dilatory tactics.
 9Ir. Shea said the strikers claim they and their families are starving at work and might as well starve at being idle.
 "The men have been patriotic and patient" said Mir. Shea. While the profiteers plunge red handed in the game of grabbing and have emerged as millionaries. Landlords have been created millionaries. They and the profiteers and the grocerS are rolling in wealth. The working man has been patient while the prices of food has scared. The government has made promises of food price reduction but this has been a mere mockery.

 UNIONS BI JAPANESE

TOXIC, April "A Government ap- proval or the organization ot labor un- ions would be gwen for the first time in Japan under a new bill drawn up by the Department of Commerce for submlsslo to the present sess.on of the Diet. The government proposes, however, to regulate, restrict and to a certain extent, otherwise control the operations of the unions which might be organized under the proposed law. One of the regulations which has aroused criticism provides that when a union or any craft or trade adopts a resolution that runs counter to law or is considered to be detrimental to public interest or fails to perform what is required of it by the admin istrative authorities, these authorities may cancel the resolution or desolve the union.
 Unions of various trades would be permitted to form a federation of un- ions only provided it's rules and regu- lations were submitted and approved by "the roper authorities"
 Heretofore, Japanese workmen have mostly been organized in guilds, al- though an Associated Labor Union Was in existence in Tokio nearly a year ago. Supporters of the proposed law say the government must take the
