SALMON

Restricting the salmon catch is absolutely neces-
sary if the industry is to be preserved from desruc
ton states Secretary of Commerce Hoover. 1t is in
terestng to observe that with his usual intelligence
and honesty Mr. Hoover insists that there is pana-
for the salmon situation. Every salmon district,
he says is problem to itself. He expects to appoint
board to consider the different problems and advise
as to the best of regulation. When Congress
grants the increase of constructive authority to the De-
partment of Commerce, which it will be asked to do,
the Department will have found out what best to do
and be ready to do it.
Every American knows what happened to other
great natural before the necessity of
tion too late to do any good. Salmon is val
liable and desirable food that getting after the
sriction and maintenance of its industry i'll time is
work that will be welcomed by every sensible citizen

WHAT ARE VACATIONS?

In an article titled ''Who Need Vacation"
writer in the Chicago Daily News points out that near
ly everyone needs vacation. Even the persons who
appear not to work at all and to spend their lives in
one long series of holidays need vacation However,
every individual needs his sort of vacation.
Exercise in the open air is good for practically
everybody But the person whose work calls for con-
tnued and concentrated mental activity needs more
physical exercise while the man who his muscles
constantly needs more mental stimulation
A change of occupation well as Of scene is what
is wanted Activities that will bring true recreation
and that will help to build up mental physical and
spiritual health reserve to carry the individual
through the nonvacation months the activities to
be selected.
Ii takes judgment to plan justfiable vacation
and to make it count for most in the vacationers life

LITER IS PLAYING MARKET,I WINNING
Jesse Pomeroy Gets Permission to
 Speculate in Stocks

Boston, Nov. l6.-James Pomeroy, the well known life prisoner. is play ing the stock market. He has been operating from his cell in Charles town state prison and to date he is ahead of sthe game. A State street brokerage house is handling his ac- count.
 The transactions are all legal and above-board. Pomsroy operates with his personal funds, with the permits sion of prison authorities. and aE winnings go to his credit. He has taken flyers in Ventura and Moon Motors
 Warden William Hendry yesterday confirmed the report of Pomeroy'e market operations. He expressed sur prise that they had become public and said that he could see nothing unusual in the situation.
 Yes" he said, Jesse is investing in securities. We encourage that sort of thing We sold many thousands of dollars worth of Liberty bonds here in fact, Jesse bought q couple. Now he chooses to invest. That is his right
 Naturally. he has no stock ticker in his cell; neither does he telephone his orders. It is all done by mail be- tween Jesse and the brokerage house. I can't sec anything unusual in that can you? We allow the prisoners to invest their savings, and when a man has been in prison for fifty years we should make some allowances shouldn't we? We should stretch things a bit"
 In his letters to his brokers Pome- roy displays q real sense of humor.
 ''of course you will realize" he writes, that l am not in a position 10 keep in close touch with the market"
 Pomeroy is somewhat of a business man as we'll as q 1naneier. He acts as commission merchant for less well known prisoners. The goods are dis. played in an otherwise vacant cell. Visitors are allowed to make pur- chasss They do not see or talk with Pomeroy The purchase price Is left with the official conducting the tour,
