BANDITS IN MEXICO
 USE KU KLUX CARE

MEXICO CITY, Feb. S.-The dress of the Ku Klux Klan was copied by four hold-up men who, on a recent Sunday afternoon, attacked various parties of automobilists driving out to visit the famous Cacahuamilpo caves in the state of Morelos. It was on this road that the A. Bruce Biel- aski party was held up last June, resulting in the kidnapping of the former head of the Bureau Of Investi- gation of Department of Justice of the United States.
 The attackers were thorough in their work, even helping themselves to cigarettes and matches, but withal they were so genial and courteous that one woman victim said later she rather enjoyed the experience. The men spoke English and called at tention to the fact that they wore Ku Klux Klan regalia.

WINTERS ICY GRIP HARD ON
 FISHER FOLK

CURLING, N. F., Feb. 8.-The win ter months, always period of priva- tion for the scattered population of the western shores of New foundland, loom this year as terrible menace to the hardy fisher-folk along this coast. With months of winter still to come, the government of the Colony already has been called upon to relieve the hunger of the hamlets that dot the coast from Bonne Bay north, due to { the partial failure of the herring fish cries last fall, and the freezing in of the herring fleet before the fish could be taken to market
 The first disaster to the herring 1 fishermen was the falling off in the catch to less than half of last years pack At Bay of Islands, center of the herring industry on this coast, the pack for 1922 was only $500 as against 1 5000 barrels for 1921. This fact alone spelled a lean winter for the fisher men, who depend on the money paid them by the packers to tide them over the ice-bound, non-productive season, 1 But worse was to come
 | Soon after the first of December ex- treme cold set in, unprecedented for the season even in these icy attitudes. The herring fleet, setting out to con- vey the herring pack to the outside markets, was caught off guard and frozen in at Bay of Islands. The pack CTS, with their seasons output on their hands, were unable to pay the fishermen. The latter, in turn, were unable to lay in their winter food SUD- plies. To make the situation appear worse, if worse could be possible, the demand for herring "on the outside i has been stronger this winter than usual, and good prices could have been obtained from the pack had de- livery been possible.
 The Newfoundland Government, ap- pealed to for assistance when the menace was first seen, lost no time | in responding The steamer Sagona was sent from St. Johns and succeed ed in saving 10O' of the 200 fleets of nets that had been frozen in. Of the remainder, 50 fleets sank with the weight of herring in them, and 50 more could not be reached. The Cana dian Government was appealed to and 1 the icebreaker Stanley was sent up to Bay of Iolands, but was too late. After a desperate effort to break through the ice barrier the Stanley gave up the task and steamed south.
 Seven schooner loaded with herring are frozen solid in the ice, to remain until spring. In their holds are thous ands of barrels of cured fish, the fruit of seasons labor. Some of the pack is still on shore, but there is little possibility of getting it transported to a railroad for shipment to market. Heavy snowstorms and bitter frost have tied up the Newfoundland Rail- way for long periods.
 Newfoundlanders familiar with the tragic history of the shore fishermen say that the west coast faces the dark est days in the annals of the Colony. The task of relieving the fishermen is rendered more difficult by the com plete suspension of land and water transportation to their section by the heavy winter. Cargoes of food sup plies are piled up at this place and Port aux Basques, while coasting yes sels have cancelled their sailings be- cause of the ice barrier.
