MEMORIAL PROVIDES WAY
 TO FIGHT FISH RESERVE

JUNEAU, April 1O-In compli- ance with request made by Dele gate Dan Sutherland, Senator For rest J. Hunt, of the First Division. has introduced a resolution authoriz- ing the territorial attorney general to test the validity of Alaska fish reserves, and to protect and defend any private citizen or corporation" against the charge of violation of the rules and regulations promulgated by the department of commerce through it's bureau of fisheries, initiating action either in the courts of Alaska or the District of Colum- bia, and appropriating the sum of s1o,0o0 to defray the cost of such actions.
 The senate rules and election committee has introduced a bill pro- viding that regular nominees for delegates be ex-oficio national com mitteemen.

 Notwithstanding the fact that Rustgari admitted the incorrectness of much of the data contained in his biennial ~report including the important rates upon which he mad based his analysis of Alaska tariffs, and other inaccuracies, still main ,ains that Alaska freight rates are exorbitant and excessive.
 The testimony of General Knick erbocker, of the Alaska Steamship Company. apparently has created d favorable impression. He denied taa5 1is company had earned excessive dividends and presented figures showing that during the ten years preceding 1923 the earnings had averaged less than six per cent. 1e declared that the charge that his company did not want Alaska de- 'eloped is absolutely false and he hallenged critics to show an in- tance wherein any industry had ,een blocked.
 Manager Knickerbocker answered Il questions without hedging. Rust ard questioned him aimlesly for nore than two hours. He was also questioned by Senators Dimond and 'oster, and by Representative Deck r, Raelson, Keys, Daly and others.

sion at the conference. which is TO
be held at Onondaga reservation. New
York. June l. 2 and 3, will be con-
corning moneys which the Indians
claim is owed them by the United
States government.
Chief Dominic Two Axe, OF the
Caughnawaga reservation. explaining
his attitude said that by former
treaties the American government
was obliged to pay TO the Indians in
New York state certain sums anuu-
ally for tho use of the land they had
taken from the Indians. This had
fallen into arrears and a lot OF money
was due.
The American authorities. he said.
were trying TO give them this money
in the form of schools and hospitals
but that was no good" Chief Two
Axe said.
I'VE don't want your schools and
your hospitals he said.

our business at all. We want II

practice issued today is particularly
timely.
Il do not pretend to be able to fore
cast the short swings of the stock
market" says Mr.. Babson. but I do
know that the short interest de.
veloped since the recent bear raids
probably the largest in recent years
has reached n point where It is very
dangerous. This is largely due to the
fact that spectators all over the
country have been carried AVA by
the prevailing bearish propaganda and
have gone short just as they buy
stocks when surface conditions look
optimistic. It looks as easy to sell
as TO buy and it is my guess that the
majority of these spectators do not
understand the position that short
selling places them in.
Let us see what happens. II you
ave your broker nm order to sell 100
shares Of some stock short. he ac-
tually borrows the stock from one
OF his other customers who owns II.
or from some other broker. He
actually sells this borrowed stock for
you. You put up the cash to guar
antee its present value or n margin
deposit to protect your broker. II
the stock happens to go up, you are
called on FOR more margin. II you
can't cover It. the broker buys ms
stock in at the market and returns
It to the original owner. You stand
the loss. So far short selling pre-
sents only the dangers attending
ordinary marginal buying-a few
points in the wrong direction and
you are wiped out.
ut must also be borne in mind.
however, that you borrowed the stock
and that you did not borrow 1t for
any given time. The owner can call
on you at any time for 1t and you
must return it. II you brok "A

where else. all right: but IL he can't.
you must buy the stock in the open
market and return 1t no matter how

you nave to protect your margins.
Moreover. II these 100 shares pay a
dividend which you are short Of, then
you must also pay that.
Multiply your own short position
by several thousand and the greatest
danger of the practice is apparent.
The short interest is very soon larger
than the number OF shares of the
given stock that are for sale. Prices
advance two or three points and a
few OF the shorts cannot put up the
increased margins. Brokers go into
the market to buy the stock, to re-
urn II. The demand raises prices a
bit. then there are more shorts that
are forced to cover. The market
strengthens and brokers rush in to
get the securities. they must return
behold. there are no more for sale.
Prices skyrocket and the SPECTATORS
who were short are wiped out. II is
interesting to note here that there is
no limit to your losses on a short
sale. II you buy n stock at SO you
cannot possibly lose more than 50
points. but II you sell 1t short at SO
it may go to 100 or 500 or even to
/ 900 and you must cover and stand
the loss.
1.-THE short interests. for instance.
were caught in Stutz in April. 1920.
The stock had been selling between
100 and 145. The moment the short
sales exceeded the floating or avail
able supply prices started to climb
and went to 724. The n. Y. Stock
Exchange then stepped in but the
short interest had to settle at the
rate Of $3.50 n share. The same stock
may be had today around 20.
More recently the corne in Piggy
Wiggly has illustrated once more the
extremely weak position of the specu-
lator who is short. This stock hal
been trading between 40 and "a. The
majority of the short interest prob.
ably sold 1t around 30. when the
stock was called for there was none
to be had. Prices scared and II was
taken on the exchange. Settlement
was finally made at the rate OF 800
a share.
These spectacular cases illustrate
our point but do not represent the
great losses resulting from shert sell
ing. Millions OF dollars are endan-
gered today on the short side OF the
present market. n growing accumu-
latlon that gets shaker as It piles
higher. A rise OF three to five points
would start the drive that would prac-
tIcally wipe this Interest out. More

over. fundamental conditions do not
indicate hat business has gone to
pot. Business is still good. Condi-
tons are against the short sellers
and their chances to win dwlndle as
the short interest grows.
in fact general business. as re-
nected in the Babsonchart. is still

cluded Mr.. Babson. land will doubt
less continue into 1924. There IS
nothing in one fundamental situation
to indicate hat the stock market has
reached its top. Short selling Mt
best is dangerous short selling
against fundamental conditions is apt
to be suicidal"
