Lenin Memorial Tree
Will Not Be Planted
On Sixteenth Street

No memorial tree will be planted
on 18th street in honor of Nikolai
Lenin, late premier Of Russia
This was decided by the District
Commissioners yesterday when they
turned down a request from J.
Bently Mulford of Asbury Park,
y. j., who wrote to the city heads
several weeks ago asking for such
authority.
Following receipt of the applica-
ton, the Commissioners received
a letter from Garland W. Powell,
director of the National American
ism Commission of the American
Legion, in which he made vigorous
protest against planting such a
tree on the same thoroughfare
where similar memorials have been
planted in honor of Washington
boys who died in France.

morning stated that it is true the plant is to be enlarged. but that the plans are incomplete and he is therefore not prepared to give. out any details at this time further thah to say that after the plant is en- larged it will have a capacity Of at least one million pounds storage space.
 Some idea of the business that Is being done by the Wrangell Ice and Storage Company is indicated by the fact that within the past few days nine carloads of frozen fish have gone from this plant to eastern markets via the Canadian National Railroad. When the big power boat Bellingham was here recently she took on two carloads of frozen fish. One car was consigned to Pittsburg and the other to Chicago. The Bel lingham called here again Monday and took on three carloads of frozen fish consigned to Chicago, Cleveland and Pittsburg. The Bellingham re- turned to this port "Wednesday night to take on seven carloads more of frozen fish.
 Four of these carloads will be ship ped to eastern markets via Prince Rupert, while three carloads will be unloaded at Ketchikan and kept in storage there for a short time before being shipped east. This makes total of twelve carloads of frozen fish (halibut and salmon) that have been shipped from the Wrangell plant within the past few days.
