Newspaper Advertisements
 Monopolized by Government

SOFIA. Aug S-The government has just presented to Parliament a bill establishing monopoly for all newspaper advertisements. Hence forth every advertisement, announce ment or puff will have to be pub lished first in the Official Gazette. at very high price.
 Then only its reproduction in other papers will be allowed after paying another tax for the reproduction.
 The big political papers and those for information supported chiefly by are in the hands Of the intellectuals or of the middle classes who are not on good terms with the peasant government. By this method the government would be able to injure the organs of its political adversaries.

GERMANY FORCES
 CHINA INTO NEW COMMERCE DEAL
K citations Re-established
 Pending Signing of Per- manent Treaty.

BERLIN, Aug. -Germanys re-
 fusal to subscribe again to the Yer
 sailles <. Treaty in, itss negotiations with the Chinese. government has led ito the completion of fan agreement
 between the two governments which
 is designed to re-establish conner cial relations pending the drafting of a permanent pact.
 China's request that Germany re
 iterate its adherence to the Yer sailles Treaty was regarded by many here as somewhat remarkable, inas much as the Picking government re- fused to sign the treaty because of the Shantung provisions. It became known when the documents leading to the Chino-German agreement were laid before the Reichstag that Ger, many had refused to comply with China's request for reaffirmation of Germany's adherence to the Yer the stand that such action might prejudice her position in case of a revision of the treaty.
 In advising China of the unwilling. ness of Germany again to formally acknowledge the Versailles Treaty, Foreign Minister Simons wrote: "In agreement with the instructions of my government I have the honor to declare t1 1yop again that sthe Ger man govetnment cannot acknowledge the Versailles Treaty in general terms again. for such step would be synonymous with the selm-im posed acceptance of the treaty by Germany and would prejudice it's later revision. But Germany will make no objections if China avails itself of Articles 12S to 134 of the treaty, also of certain other rights of the treaty, which are of import 1 ance for China, in the present form pr in an altered form, in case a re- vision takes place."
 The articles mentioned. 12S to | l34, refer especially to China and l provide that Germany shall surren- Ter all concessions and special rights | which it formerly enjoyed in China.

 FOR SOLDIERS' DIP

VERSAILLES, Aug. S.-The beauti full marble swimming pool created by Louis XIV, between the Trianon Pal ace and the Neptune Basin. so that the pages of the King might enjoy a dip on hot days, is now used by private soldiers stationed in the bar racks near by. about 50 buck priyates were recuper- ating in the pool from two hours drill in the morning before the noon day meal
 Suddenly, with terrified shriek, a soldier sprang out of the baths:
 "Crocodiles, Lieutenant; there are crocodiles in the pool!"
 Put a blanket around this man and take him to the guardhouse. He is crazy with the heat" said the Lieu tenant.
 Then with concerted rush which equalled anything ever shown against the Germans. the other 49 bathers leaped out "Crocodiles, crocodiles.' they shrieked
 The Lieutenant. veteran or many battles, looked closer at the water and there. with jaws set and eyes staring at him, surely enough were six large crocodiles. The Lieuten- ants face blanched and he wondered whether he too had become affected by the heat or, perhaps. the red wine Just then two men bearing an instru- ment which resembled machine gun on high stilts came along.
 Don't hurt our crocodiles,' they begged the Lieutenant. They re harmless and we need them in our finn

LIGHT SALMON PACK IN BRISTOL BAY IS
 REPORTED BY DAVIS

A very. short salmon pack in the Bristol Bay district this season. is reported by Capt. R. L. Davis, mas ter of the gasboat Startling which is in port from Herendeen Bay en- route to Bellingham. Capt. Davis is brother of Capt James V. Davis. of the maiibeat Estebeth,
 NThe .iargeSf pack of which Capt Davis had any knowledge was put up by the Pacific American Fisheries plant at Port Moeller, ,wIh ere 80. 600 cases of reds were packed during the season. : The same company put up 5,00O cases of reds at Ikitan Other packs reported by him are; P. E. Harris & Company at False Pass, 24,000 cases of reds the Phoe- nix Packing Company, 24,00O cases Of reds at Herendeen Bay; the Ever ett Packing Company. 22,OO0 cases at Herendeen Bay.
 Capt. Davis had no definite figures on the canneries in the Bristol Bay district canneries proper. However. he said that all reports received from there were to the effect that the pack had not been heavy.
 He brought the Startling into this port for a few engine repairs and will shortly continue to the South.

tCOntinued From fdse tUie plants operating in this country at the present time, although there is a well established industry in Scotland, Many American shale deposits are richer in recoverable oil than Scotch shales now being worked, and prob ably nearly equal in nitrogen content, which is a measure of recoyera ble ammonia.
 Market conditions for shale prod ucts are. less favorable in this coun try than in Scotland.
 Great quantities of American shales are of greater thickness and better suited for mining than Scotch shales.
 As yet no process for obtaining oil from oil shale has been used in actual commercial practice in this country
 Indications are that the United States cannot continue long to de- pend on domestic petroleum produc- tion to supply completely the demand for petroleum products, and that sooner or later our oil shales will have to be used to help supply the deficit.
 For Local Industries
 The oil shale industry cannot hope to supplant the petroleum industry in large way for many years. but will probably grow up from local in- dustrieS in fayora hle DlaCoS : Costs of oil shale operations can not be reliably estimated until com mercial practice in this country fur nishes the necessary basic data.
 The quantity, quality and value of products and by-products to be ob tained from oil shale in this country are not known with any degree of 
 The oil shale industry is a large scale, low-grade raw materials manu featuring enterprise, requiring large capital, high technical and business ability, and probably making slow re- turn on the investment. Once eco homie conditions become favorable for the development of the oil shale industry and satisfactory mining, re- torting and refining processes worked put and markets established. there should be only ordinary business risk connected with the industry.

U. s. METHODISTS GAIN
 MILLION IN DECADE
(By the Associated Press)

Chicago. Sept. 8.-A net gain of l,255,O91 members has been made by all divisions of the Methodist church in the United States in the past ten years, despite great losses suffered by the denominations during the war. according to statistics compiled for presentation to the decennial Ecumen- lcal Methodist conference which opens in London next week. The figures, compiled by the Rev. H. K. Carroll of Plainfield, N. J., former director of the United States census, were made public here today.
 Methodist Sunday schools in the United State, however, the report says show net loss for the two years, 1918 and 1919, of 293,9 ,968, " an appall- ing figure" although 1920 returns in- dicate that "the lost ground is being Iregained." Notwithstanding that Sun day school pupils of the denomination in this country were 100000 less in number in 1920 than in 1918, the en- rollment throughout the world shows an increase of 1,289,036 Methodist pu- pills for the ten-year period.

BANKERS 10 STUDY
 LOCAL QUESTIONS
(By the Associated P~ess)

Los Angeles, Sept. S.-Local prob lems facing every section of the coun- try will be taken up and discussed as bearing upon general business con- ditions at the American Bankers As sociation convention in Los Angeles, October 3 to ' next, according to an outline of the convention program issued by the association publicity con- mittee
 Although every business man. reads the outline, recognizes that the United States can never return to it's former commercial isolation as re- gards world trade, few realize that it is our intersectional isolation which is doing more than any one factor to delay the return to normal business conditions.
 Tn recent address before a rep resentative group of bankers in New York, it was brought out that the lack of cooperation between business men, bankers and manufacturers in various sections of the country has iNu u lIIC IItaIloli LII iOCdI which are untirely unnecessary, and could be avoided by broad policy of intersectional cooperation. What was meant was, that each district treated it's problems as purely local, whereas, as a matter of fact, they were simply phase of national prob lens, and should be treated nationally.
 "No body of men are in a better position from which to attack these problems, than the bankers of the country That they realize their re- sponsibility is evidenced by the scope of the program to come before the annual convention of the American Bankers Association to be held in Los Angeles October to ' inclusive.

NEWSPAPERS WASTE
 PULP, FORESTERS SAY
fBy the Associated Press)

Washington, Sept. 8.-Need of elim- mating waste in the printing business, as shown in the report just issued by the committee on elimination of waste in industry of the American En- gineering Council, is one of the most powerful arguments ever put forth for a national forest, says a statement by the American Forestry Association, which has made it the occasion to call on the World Press Congress which meets in Honolulu in October to take some action on the forestry question.
 "Upon what does the newspaper depend for existance?" says the statement. "It depends upon the pa per made from wood pulp. There are about 2,500 daily newspapers in the country. Our annual consumption of two million tons of newsprint d year means strip of paper as wide as the regulation daily paper and forty mil lion miles long. Just as measure of distance, remember that the sun is 32 millions miles away. It would also make two-foot wide ribbon of newspaper around the world 1,600 times.

STONE CRAB BORES

St. Petersburg, Fla, Sept. 7.-Con- crete heretofore has been regarded as match for everything but steel tools and high explosives but it has been discovered that the stone crab, common to Florida waters, digs into and crushes it as so much chalk. The tool the crab uses is his case-hardened claws, the claws regarded so highly as table delicacy after a heavy ham, mer has been brought into play to crush them to permit extraction of the flesh.
 Engineers for many years have sought an economical method of pro- tecting piling driven in salt water from worms and other scourges which cut them in two and believed they had solved the problem by sheating them with concrete, but the stone crab has shown them their mistake
