Lynch lost a four-round decision
to Jimmy Wilde in London at the
inter-allied tournament. 1t was
generally said, even by English
sportsmen, that the decision was
wrong, but Lynch was too good a
sportsman himself to make any
comment at all. He evened the
score with wilde afterward in q
longer bout.
After the war Joe began the
spectacular rush that took him up
to the championship. Tex Rickard
matched him with Jack Sharkey, the
jndomitable little Italian. Jack
knocked Joe down several times in
early rounds, and it looked as tf
Lynch might be neatly polished on.

New Law in Efect-Under
sized Fish a Thing of the
Past-Hard Fight

CONCORD, y. H.. May 17.--Accord-
ing to schedule, yesterday stamped the
entrance in New Hampshire of legal
six-inch brook trout law. Since the brook
trout season opened April l it has been
legal to fish and take fivc-inch trout. The
last session of the legislature established
a Six-inch law i'm New Hampshire, but by
reason of the fact that the six-inch trout
bill failed to Tx a definite time for the
act to go into effect. il became operative
only under statute law provided for such
cases. The state department of fish and
game named May II as the date for the
five-inch brook trout law to go into the
discard and the siX-inch trout to become
the size limit.
For many years an effort has been made
i'm this state to wipe out the hve-inch and
substitute the six-inch trout, but until the
last legislature succeeded in enacting
legislation in favor of restricting the legal
size of brook trout to not less than six
inches. every past effort has resulted in
failure. due primarily to the fact that
certain north country summer hotel and
boarding house interests employed propa-
ganda to keep the five-nch trout law
alive for the benefit Of their summer
guests.
Scores of city anglers come into New
Hampshire every summer who like to 20
out and catch q string of brook trout in
the swift running mountain streams where

Only Six Inch Trout Can
Be Taken in Granite State

small trout abound Most of them take
no cogHizance of size. What they are
after is quantity. a iive-inch brook trout
looks good to them. And when the day ;
fishing is over and they get back TO their
hotel with - or S0.--yes, perhaps 100
little trout they are hcralded as the king
pin fishermen of the mountain region, and
the city newspaper correspondents get
busy and write a nice story for their
papers about the wonderful ability and
success of the men who have been making
a reputation from taking trout that a real
fisherman would ignore.
All of this understood fishing has now
passed in New Hampshire and resident
and nonresident brook trout anglers viii
be compelled in the future to show trout
not less than six inches in length. or else
pay the penalty as violatorS of the law.
There will still be five-inch brook trout
taken in the small brooks, not only of the
mountain section. but in this neck of the
woods. for there are men everywhere who
have no regard for the law. whether il
applies to brook trout killing pheasants
under protection, sharing cartridges, or
cutting the throat of a deer out of season
in a winter deer yard. where the unfortU-
nate creature * marooned by deep SHOWS
and unable to escape or protect itself.
Until today New Hampshire was the
only state in New England which had a
five-inch brook trout law. and about the
only one i'm the United States which al,
lowed brook trout less than six inches to
be legally caught. When il is understood
that fve-inch trout are generally unable to
reproduce their specfeS the practical lacl;

law ought TO be apparent.

American entente.
Officials Discreetly Silent.
As for sympathy here, officials here
maintain q discreet silence. Obviously
they want Germany not to lose too much
Of her resources and if they felt that the
loss of the SileSian coal fields would so
weaken German industry as to interfere
with her capacity for fulfillment of the
reparatiOn promises she gave last week.
there would be no hesitation about eX-
pressing an opinion. But in the absence
of a definite disposition of territory. the
major question dealing with the effect on
Germany'S power to pay PREPARATIONS is
still in the background and gives America
no opportunity fer the use Of moral sua-
sion. There is a haze over the facts of
the quarrel-the immediate causes of the
rupture. Did France encourage the Polish
insurgents? Did Germany bring about
the uprising through iniammatory new,
articles: Does France want to diSmcm-
Der Germany so that she will be ecOnom-
ically Frustrated, while France goes
ahead? All these questions are being
asked here. And Secretary Hughes has
significantly called for all of the docu-
ments. Thus far the American govern
ment merely seeks the facts and expresses
no opinions.

HOT STORAGE

West Virginia Professor Discovers New
Method for Keeping Goods
Free from Insects

NIORGANTOWN. w. Va. May IL
Hot" storage as opposed to cold" stor-
age for many things affected by insects
but not by heat may be realized soon if
the experiments of Professor l.. NJ
Peairs. of the department of entomology
of the University of West Virginia prove
entirely satisfactory. Professor Pcairs
has met with a great degree of success in
showing the practicability of hot storage
for such articles as carpets, clothing par
ticularly woolens and furs. as wen as
cereals. dried fruit products and other
materials unaffected by dry heat
Professor PEARS has used grain and
carpet beetles and other insects of a SINH
lar nature in demonstrating that they do
not develop at a constant temperature of
100 degrees Fahrenheit and i'm some
cases at % degrees. Even such forms of
insect life as could endure higher tempera-
lures could not survive a constant tenn
perature Of from % to 100 degrees he
said. Thus, he has concluded that hot
storage with a uniform and constant tenn
perature of 100 degrees would prove more
effective than cold storage in many cases.

Especial Despatch to The Reformer0
Copyright 1921.
WASHINGTON, May 17.-TrOuble
between Great Britain and France gives
great concern here, not because of any
fear that the two countries will come into
actual physical conflict, but because the
controversy may keep the European agog
over war and its implications instead of
peace and its economic benefits.
Americas decision to keep hands off
the Silesian quarrel cannot be taken lit
orally OF course President Harding and
Secretary Hughes do not want to mix in
what might be for the moment a strictly
European quarrel, but American interest
in what is going on is just as true today
as it was when Senator Knox, leader of
the irreconcilables, inserted in the famous
paragraph five of his peace resolution a
declaration that the United States would
view with grave concern anything that
threatened to upset the peace of the
world.
So long as the dispute over the posses
sion of Upper Silesia is a territorial SQUAD
Bile between European nations and gives
no sign of growing into a major quarrel,
America looks on and says nothing. But
the possibility that the United States
might be asked to mediate or might even
be urged to tender her good Offices is be.
ing discussed as a phase of the situation
