Passengers Angered.
Ten hours after she first splashed
anchor a revenue cutter and tugs
helped crowd the big craft into quar-
antine against the tide. but during
the inspection her bow swung out
ward again. It was necessary, be-
cause of her ponderous bulk and the
close quarters. to take her out into
Gravesend bay. swing her around
and make another swing before she
got into the North rfver--just miss
ing q slack tide. which would have
delayed her another six hours. She
docked two hours late with her
passengers. including Mr.. Farley,
irate over the delay:
Quarantine inspectors regularly
accommodate the Majestic. Olympic

He Indicated he would enter a
complaint against the action of the

HERRING PACKERS MAY OPPOSE
 REGULATION

That the Territorial Fish Commissions s stand on the elimination of wasteful methods in the herring packing industry is not pleasing to all of those engaged in the business and that efforts will be made to induce the Fed erra Bureau of Fisheries to take no action n
 the matter is indicated by an articles ir the December issue of the Pacific Fisherman, Seattle publication devoted to the fishing in dustrv. In the article mentioned is contained this statement: "Packers also take exception to the widely circulated statements concerning the waste of fishs in the herring business, and feel that any hard and fast re- quircment as to the utilization of waste thru the installation of reducing plants would be
 an unnecessary handicap to the business"
 Two men engaged in the industry were
 quoted at length, both of whom opposed the idea of official regulation for the purpose of waste elimination. One of the operators was
 quoted as saying that the waste of herring was exaggerated by tourists because the churn- ing of the propellers of steamers coming to tie plants brought up all the dead fish from
 the bottom of the bay, and to anyone unfamil fair with conditions, the quantity seemed very large
 The waste of fish in the curing of herring mas nOI been brought to OlllCldl nOlice lnlouSH reports of ''tourists," but by persons who are familiar with virtually every phase of the fish ing industry, men of practical experience as
 well as by scientific experts who have made la study of the situation. In the initial stages of the industry, it was to have been expected that there would be more or less wastefu
 practices encountered, and 1t was to have been equally expected that those engaging in
 the business would have been foresi ighted enough to check such methods without offocial interference becoming necessary. The Alaska Fish Commission $ reports from the field ln- |dicatc that d few of the herring packers did
 move to take care of products that otherwise would have been wasted, but others ran on a more reckless scale than ever before. It is the latter class which makes regulation ad- visable in order to safeguard the future of the industry. The Bureau of Fisheries is we'll advised in ordering hearing on the subject
 and it is to be hoped that adequate regulations may be adopted that will meet the eXigencies of the situation.-Juneau Empire.

NOT IMPOLITE TO LEAN
 ARMS ON THE TABLE

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 17.-The age old decree of social etiquette that one should never put his elbows on the table has been proven all wrong
 Also the popular idea that a grape fruits only social usage is that of morning appetizer, or as one of the innocent concomitants of salad or cocktail, has been proven falla- cious
 Nowadays, in really smart so- ciety, you plaster your elbows braz- enly upon the festive board Furth- ermore, you plaster them in your grapefruit! A whole one to each guest Cut it in half to be sure. and one part is employed by each elbow for a parking place. < Elbows inspired the new fad. El- the anatomy in these days when women's sleeves are usually short or absent altogether Someone discovered that the juice of grapefruit is softening and bleach ing when applied to the elbows, and so efficacious that it seems as though the gods of feminine beauty designed | it for arm-angles.
 | Someone else discovered that the way to combine business and pleas ure is to play bridge with the afore- said elbows resting in the damp, stinging little nests of grapefruit It is said to be difficult to get onto the knack of it at first. The little hemishperes are exceedingly elusive.
 With the expanding scope of the new fad it is said that all grape fruit-bridge players will arrive at party equipped with their own tow els and goggles.

FRANCE SEEKS RESTORATION
 RUSS TRADE

MOSCOW, Jan. 1.-The draft of a proposed Franco-Russian Trade and Industrial Bureau, which represents the first attempt on the part of French industrial circles to restore commercial relations between the two countries, has been received by the Soviet Supreme Econimic Coun- cil
 the council observes that the scheme deserves special attention, and says the establishment of such a bureau is desirable from the Soviet point of view
 In this connection it is announced also that a group of French mer- chants has proposed an exchange of goods between Marseilles and Petrograd The French business men say they are eager to export agri- cultural machinery, seeds, oil, fats, textiles and clothing to Russia and in exchange import into France wool, hides, leather, silk, oak timber and manganese.
 Information reached the Petrograd Chamber of Commerce recently that the Paris Chamber of Commerce had passed a resolution in favor of i'm mediate resumption of business with Soviet Russia.
 The Italian chambers of commerce have resolved to maintain constant contact with Russia by means of correspondence with the Petrograd Chamber of Commerce.

CORDOVA'S PUBLIC BUILDING

Due to the efforts of the Cordova Chamber of Commerce, construction bids for the Fed eral Building here are again being called tor by the Treasury Department. This IS the second time that advertisement of the project has been made by the supervising architect But one bid was received in response to the first request This was due to the fact that but thirty days were allowed Tn winch to prepare estimates and submit bids. This short time effectua1ly disbarred contractors from submitti1r offers, as it was too limited for outside contractors to acqualnt themselves with local conditions and for the local con- tractors 10 get outside estimates on necessary hardware and fixtures.
 The local Chamber made representations to the Treasury Department explaining the sit nation and requesting that the matter be ao3;n offered to contractors and that four months time be allowed for the preparation of estimates between the date of the first advertisement, and the opening of the bids This request has now been granted, and the matter is once more before the public. It IS 4o ha honed that several bids will be submitted This time in order that a fair range of ideas concerning construction costs may be secured.
 If is especially to be hoped that local con
  nlans are on display at the local post office and can hn secured at any time by interested persons The community and the whole Cop per River Valley is vitally concerened In the matter of erecting the building, It's need IS apparent. and it's lack is being constantly 1e[t both by the public and by the various gov ernmental departments which could and would nse an adequate building. The Chamber of Commerce has always insisted that the build inc could be constructed within the appropr1- ation and has consistently worked to further the project. The Chamber stands ready to continue it's assistance bv offering its facll- itios to any nrospective bidder either here or on the outside. The long fight for the build inc, which has been under way almost from inc founding of the town has now been re- warded by partial success. It needs only hearty cooperation on the part of builders and contractors to make the building a reality.
