INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON
 FISH IS URGED
Conservation Measures Are Discussed at Canadian
 Fisheries Convention

VANCOUVER, B, C., June 19.-The appointment of an international fish commission to determine when, where and how the fishing industry shall be carried on with special reference to the conservation of fish was advo cated in the course of an interesting paper read at the Canadian Fisheries convention here by l.. H. Darwin, fish commissioner of the State of Wash ington, who spoke on international Treaties or State Agreements"
 MT. Darwin dealt more especially with the sock eye run on the Fraser River, giving startling figures show ing how the run had been depleted since 1913, as compared with the present time. The problem of con serving the sockeye, which runs only once in four years. is considered more difficult to solve than hump backs which run every two years. He estimated that 9S per cent of the sockeye spawned in the Fraser river while between 40 and 50 per cent of the humpbacks went up that river to spawn
 Commission Advocated
 "The only solution in my opinion is the appointment of such com mission" stated MT Darwin. Why" he continued, should we in the State of Washington and in British Colum- bia not settle this question which is of such vital interest to us? Other states and provinces are interested only in the supply which they look to us to find. In two weeks, such a commission, If it consisted of praC tical men, could digest the situation and bring forward suggestions to the governments which, if acted up 1n, would offer a solution of this i'm portant question"
 MT Darwin traced the efforts to secure legislation looking to the mak ing of an international agreement from the time, when fifteen years ago it was realized that the sockeye and humpback run into the Fraser River was being sadly depleted. "The sit uation at the present is such that it would be the work of years to re- habilltate the sockeye industry
 Closed Season insufficient
 "The closed season provisions" as serted Mr Darwin, 'are in my opin- ion insufficient to cope with the situation. There should be added to this promulgation and hatchery work. Speaking for the Americans. I may state that in Washington we are fully appreciative of the situation as re- gards the salmon run"
 MT. Darwin referred to the catching of immature salmon off Cape Flat tery Here was question, ne stated, that was of vital importance to the fisheries of British Columbia.
 Dr. Victor Smith, who is professor of the chair of psychology in the University of Washington. followed with a talk on the catching of i'm mature salmon, which he stated was a, matter which should not be over looked in the framing of any inter- national treaties

An Inside Bath Makes You Look and Feel Fresh Says glass of hot water with phosphate before breakfast

 adopted by millions.

Physicians the world over recon mend the inside bath, claiming this is of vastly more importance than outside cleanliness, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing ill health while the pores in the ten yards of bowels do.
 Men and women are urged to drink each morning, before breakfast, a glass of hot water with teaspoon ful of limestone phosphate in it. as a harmless means of helping tc wash from the stomach, liver, kid neys and bowels the previous days indigestible material, poisons, sour bile and toxins; thus cleansing sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach
 Just as soap and hot water cleanse and freshen the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the eliminative organs.
 Those who wake up with bad breath, coated tongue, nasty taste or have dull, aching head, sal low complexion, acid stomach; oth- CTS who are subject to bilious at tacks or constipation, should obtain a quarter pound of limestone phos- phate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to demonstrate the value of inside bathing. Those who continue it each morning are assured of pro- nounced results, both in regard to health>and appearance

NEWFOUNDLAND TRADE
 SHIFTING TO AMERICA

ST. JOHNS, N F., June 19-The steady shifting of New Foundland imports from Great Britain to Can ada and the United States is shown in foreign trade figures just made public here. Imports from Great Britain in 1909 were valued at $2,- 493,670 and in 1919 at $2,399,S53. In the same period imports from Canada increased from $3,937 .009 to $12,777,6S4 and from the United States from s4332.6SO to s16.569 .236.
 The climate of New Foundland is so severe that all of it's food supplies except fish, a few farm products and small quantity of meat, have to be imported. Practically all cloth ing, furniture and household goods also come from abroad. Until about 20 years ago 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.

THE WORLD over
Guaranty Trust Company
Discusses Foreign Trade
Situation.

The establishment of a relatively
uniform level in the wages paid to
labor throughout the world is an i'm
a vital bearing on the future posi-
ton of the United Staes in foreign
trade. according to. the current issue
Of American Goods and Foreign Mar
kets. the fortnight1y foreign trade
review of the Guaranty Trust Com
pany Of New York.
This changed wage situation. due
in large measure to the war. will ex-
ert salutary influence on the move
ment of American goods. the bulletin
says. tending to level world pro-
duction costs and permitting this
country's entrance into a freer COM
petition with goods Of foreign manu-
facture.
The general foreign exchange situa-
ton. and more particularly the fact
that the American dollar is at a pre-
MUM in Europe. stands today as the
most serious obstacle in the way OF
American foreign trade.
The problem serves to demonstrate
our dependence. upon the rest OF the
world for our commercial growth.
and to emphasize the importance OF
acquiring a broad vision of our
portunity to eliminate the trade bar
riers which restrain competition.
England, Germany, America. ..
During the half century preceding
the war, a period representing the
golden age of English industrial and
trade development. large and prof.
table British overseas commerce was
developed. A low unit Of cost in pro-
duction was largely responsible for
this growth. -
Germany, likewise producing at q
comparatively low cost, developed q
highly organized commercial system
ish commerce during the ten years
just prior to the war.
The United States, electing to oper-
ate upon a different standard Of liv-
ing. involving a higher wage cost,
was unable to gain a position as q
comparable with Great Britain and
Germany. except in those lines where
our wider use of automatic machinery
reduced the unit cost Of production to
a point that permitted competition
with similar products manufactured
on the lower European wage scale.
Europe's AavantaEe Gone.
Fortunately for the United States,
the postwar period finds this condi-
ton decidedly altered. European Ia
Dor costs have advanced tremendous
~ until they now parallel. to a con-
siderable degree. labor costs in this
country. This change deprives Eu-
rope Of one of her greatest foreign
trade assets and improves. in like
measure. the outlook for American
foreign trade SO far as competition in
productive costs is concerned. Wages
will, of course. vary, but a compare
lively level situation seems assured
throughout the industrial countries
whose commerce is affected by pro-
duction COSTS
The foregoing is one step in the
elimination Of trade barriers. Others
will follow In the course OF natural
evolution-the progress will not be
rapid-and by normal processes we
shall be able . to help preserve
throughout the world uniform
standard Of wages and q more nat
ural flow Of commerce.

GRAIN VALUES SLUMP

CHICAGO. September IS Grain
values took a downward trend today.
there being considerable profit-taking
in wheat and liquidation in corn and
oats. At the finish; wheat showed a
net loss of y to 2k. with December

Wheat started with a firm UNDER

or buying by cash houses and selling
by the local traders on the weakness
in cash grain. Prices as a whole aver
aged lower. Duluth was reported to
have sold 200.0 bushels Of durum to
put through at the gulf. A rally of
more than ten points from the inside
figure in sterling exchange also was
a factor.
Liquidation was on in corn and oats
with the deferred deliveries Of corn
and all deliveries of oats at new
low figures on the crop. There
was an absence of support in coarse
grain, except from shorts, with a fair
rally toward the last on evening up
on the part Of shorts for the week.
Weather conditions over the corn
belt were favorable for maturing the
new crop. and there was a better do
nestle demand for corn and oats de-
veloped on the declines.
Packers bought October lard and
cash trade in that commodity contin-
ues brisk. Weakness in grains led to
some selling and the range was lower.

NEW YORK COTTON SOFT.

NEW YORK. September 1s.-The
cotton market was easier this morn
ing. After opening at a decline of
10 to Is points there was a quick
rally to about last nights closing
figures on covering for over the week
end, but prices soon eased on, owing
to continued southern selling. liquida-
ton and scattering pressure.
The latter was doubtless Influenced
by the continued favorable weather
in the south and the adjournment of
the conference between the British
board Of trade and the coal miners.
owing to the refusal Of the miners
to consider other proposals until their
demand for increased wages have
been granted.
The reports from the goods trade
were also conflicting. An improved
inquiry was reported in the market
here, but the talk Of curtailment or
short time continued and business
in the west, which held up longer
than in the east. now appears to be
falling OF.
The amount Of cotton on shipboard
awaiting clearance at the end Of the
week Is only 56.433 bales.
The week end review Of Marshal
Field & Co. was in line with re-
ports received earlier in the week,
stating that the distribution Of dry
goods showed a falling of as COM
pared with the same week last year
and that there were fewer customers
in the market. Such reports as these
would seem particularly disappoint-
ing In view Of the fact that prosperity
in the grain sectionsAlas been counted
upon as furnishing impetus for a
trade revival this autumn.

W Klux KHAN REVIVED.
Arrangements Are Being Made for
Branch in Virginia.

WINCHESTER. Va. September 49,
It is announced that plans. are being
formulated for the organization of a
branch Of the Ku Klux Khan in vir-
ginia, with headquarters in Rich
mond. The announcement came from
Atlanta; Ga. general headquarters.
The idea of perpetuating the prin-
ciples upon which the old ku Klux
Khan was founded originated in the
mind of Col. William J. Simmons.
professor of southern history at
Lanier University. Atlanta.
Since the new khan had among it's
organizers. in 1915. three members of
the original society. the new organi-
zation was granted in its charter all
the legal rights and privileges ac-
corded the khan of reconstruction
days.
ITS purpose is to inculcate the sa-
cred principles and noble ideals of
chiyalry, the development of charac-
ter, the protection of the home and
the chastity of womanhood, the ex-
emplification Of a pure patriotism, the
preservation Of American ideals. and
the maintenance of white supremacy

mons.

This would give all the states in

BETTER PLAN INVITED.
Packers Except to ]. c. c. Ruling
on Business Separation.

CHICAGO, September 18.-If the
Federal Trade Commission has any
better plan to suggest the packers
will welcome it. F. Edison White, vice
president of Armour & Co., said today
when he learned that the commission
had reported to Attorney General
Palmer that the plan for selling the
packers stockyards interests to F. H.
Prince & Co. of Boston, would not be
q real separation.
IF the commission has a better
plan we invite them to submit, and
they may rest assured that If it is
feasible It will be adopted" Mr. White
said. Their claim that the plan we
have submitted does not provide for a
real separation is erroneous, but we
are not SO keen for the present plan
that we will not welcome any plan
which satisfies the government and
which is fair"
