He Would Stop All Fishinu


 Ellsworth, with whom I talked in Seward was in favor of closing all the salmon fields for four years, but it is more probable that the fishing area or season will be limited or the pack curtailed, rather than the industry be entirely suspended.
 The decline of the salmon catch is, of course, due to the same thing that has brought about the scandalous labor situation that had found in the Chinese gangs of Alaska-greed.
 Two years ago the Alaskans held a grand jury hearing at Valdez, head quarters for the Third or western di- vision of Alaska. Native fishermen there testified that they had seen a whole lighterfull of 15O,OOO silver sal man dumped into Bristol Bay
 Canneries Let Salmon Rot
 There is no doubt that in practi- cally all the 2S canneries in Bristol Bay, member of the grand jury told me good fish had been destroyed in large quantities. The reason for this is that certain salmon, that is red salmon, brings higher market price, and the cheaper varieties are allowed to rot in the sun while the cannery machines were busy putting up the reds.
 This year in False Pass, in central Alaska, saw two Japanese standing knee-deep in a lighterfull of salmon pewing out fish that had become soft from lying in the sun until their arms ached.
 THhe Fish Trap Wastes Fish
 The fish-trap is one of the biggest sources of food waste. The device requires a pile driver and is too ex- pensive for any but the big canneries to install.
 At the mouths of rivers they are built and into their meshes are scooped every sort of fish. All are loaded into the lighter and those not used are dumped into the water. It is said that one trap will cathc as many fish as 50 salmon seiners.
 The purse seine is worse. A tug or power boat hooks into an immense small mesh net and surrounds big area. Then the bottoms are drawn in by a slip rope and everything in that area is hauled into the cannery.
 In Karluk Bay I found the fisher men of three canneries had struck because a cannery using Austrian fish ermen had broken up the salmon runs with purse seines, and had completely demoralized the field.

In fact, it is theoretically the
opposite half Of the circle OF the
meridian Of Greenwich, which
also by common consent is &C.
cepted by the navigators Of the
world as the earth prime or
first meridian, and is used as the
common standard for reckoning

When 1t il noon on the Green.

reckoning, every day ends at mid
night, while its successor in.

must be regarded as the birth.
place Of the days-and their
tomb as well. If this common
point Of beginning and ending Of
the successive days had not been

into inextricable confusion.
To prove that this is so consider
the fact that when it is Tuesday

when Tuesday has reached It's

"I get much enjoyment in
reading your scientific talks
and would like to have you
print a piece on why there Is
no date-line at the equator as
there is in the Pacific Ocean
at $50 meridian.-A Subscriber,
Oakland, CAL"
"HE date-line may be called
the cradle of the days, and
- it's existence is like that Of
the succession Of day and night,
a necessary consequence of the
earth's rotation on it's axis, max
ing one complete turn, from west
to east, every twenty-four hours.
The equator runs east and west
around the globe, dividing it
into two hemispheres-a northern
and q conference.-the the date
line runs north and south around
the globe. dividing 1t into an
sphere.
The equator being the divid-
ing line between the northern
and the southern hemispheres,
runs parallel to the direction of
the earth's axial rotation, so that
there can be no difference OF
time between two places situated
on the same meridian, although
one may be north of the equator
and the ether south Of it. There
Is no difference because, while
the equator runs east and west,
the meridian runs north and
south, crossing the equator at
a right angle.
Since the globe turns as a
same all the way from pole to
pole. 1t takes "a hours for one
rotation at a point on the equa-
tor, and 1t takes exactly the same
time at a point within q foot of
the north or the south pole.
When it Is ~ o'clock local time
on any date at Oakland it is also
IL o'clock on the same date
everywhere along the meridian
which runs through Oakland, and
this is true whether the observer
Is at the point where that merid-
ian crosses the arctic circle, or
where 1t crosses the equator, or
where it crosses the antarctic
circle. Accordingly there is no
occasion for a change Of date
when crossing the equator,
whether you go north or south.
But, since the days are reck-
oned from midnight to midnight
Tor from noon to noon astronom-
ically), and since day and
night together cannot exceed "a
hours in length, it has been
found necessary to have, by COM
mon agreement of civilized ma
tons, q chosen meridian of the
earth to indicate, for all, where
one day Tor 24-hour period ends
and its immediate successor be-
gins. This chosen meridian is
that of the date-line, and as you
say. it runs north and south

foo often begins his school life
with a sense Of encouragement
that may affect his whole later de-
velopment.
But If the transition from home
tn school needs to be made a more
natural one for all little children,
how much more is it true Of the
little children who can not speak
a word of English. When the
shy foreign child enters the first
grade he steps over the threshold
of a strange place and encounters
strange children who speak a
strange language, and who are be-
ing initiated into strange school,

stranger. This beginning in the
process of being Americanized is a
trying experience. The simplicity
and natural character of the kim
dergarten activities, the use of toys
and games that are common to
children Of all nationalities, makes
the foreign child feel at home.
The kindergarten teacher visits
his own mother in his own home
and invites her to come to the
mothers meeting held in the kim
dergarten room, and persuades her
to visit the kindergarten while it is
in session. All this is part of the
emphasis which the kindergarten
places upon the social aspect of
education, and is tn best type of
Americanization work; the mother

and so there will not be that alien
alton between the child and his
