FISHING GOOD.
tfOnicr Bros. and Clarke Have to
 Fight to Keep Perch Of Hooks.

F. C. and T. l.. Monier and Shelf Clarke spent day a-flshing at Ban- tam lake yesterday and came back to New Britain last night with a fish story that would make the eyes of the most cynical bulge. The size of the bag would indicate that they had not stretched the truth as far as is the custom with fishermen.
 Perch were the species and there were many, too many to count con- venicntly. "They are sure biting" said T. l.. We heard of one fellow who caught gunny- sack full, but of course that's too much for a sef-re- specting fisherman to take. We could have gotten more, but enough is enough Gosh, they were so hun gry and coming so fast for awhile that we had 10 go ashore to bait our hooks and then they followed us as far as they could and stay in the water"

sounded rather ehesiy, but .rhurslon isn't that sort 0i chap, He simply adopted drastic methods 10 get lhs bis opportunity,
 The st, Louis club didn't like Thurslpn's attitude, Waivers were asked on him, and the Chicago club alone put in claim for the pitcher, who is now leading the American league,
 No doubt the White soN can thank Ernie Johnson. then playing short for Chicago, now utility man with the New York Yankees for ths aeauisi- ton of Thurslan, Johnson for sev. eral years had managed the Salt Lake club, Thufston had been one of his best pitchers he knew what he could do, He advised Chicago 10 take him over
 Last season Thurston pitched good ball; this year he is going great, Every club in the American league would be willing 10 pay big figures for his services.
 Yet, had Thnrslon lacked amhnion. been content to be a bench warmer. he probably wouldn't be hasebail's most talked-about pitcher today.

FATE OF TANG|ERS
Attitude of America to Decide
Outcome of International
Plan.
IN PAUL SCOTT MowRER.

pv Cable TO The Star aud Chicago Daily News.
LONDON, December Upon. the
decision Of the United States Govern
mcnt may depend the success or fall
ure of one of the most. pretentious
schemes of International admjnistra
Won ever devised. The scheme Is that
drafted by France, Great Britain and
Spain last year for a city and inter
national zone at Tangiers, in one of
the worlds most sensitive strategic
points on the African side Of the
Straits OF Gibraltar.
This scheme, which takes effect to-
day as far as Great Britain, France
and Spain are concerned, derives ad
ditional Importance from the fact
that there is talk in British diplo-
matte circles of extending its pro-
visions ultimately to the Riff coast
IN case France should attempt later
70 wrest the Riff hinterland from
A bdelkrim. It's weakness is that,
whereas all the states signatory to,
the act Of Algeciras. except former
enemy states. retain internationa
rights over Tangiers, only France,
Sreat Britain and Spain, which. s
the powers chiefly Interested, formu
'ated new regime without consult
ing the others. have accepted
Belgium, Holland and Portugal are
r&pected soon 10 add their signatures.
The exclusion of Italy from the ne
gutiatlons angered Mussolini, and
Iraly's persistent opposition seems
assured. it can be said. therefore,
that the attitude of the United States
Will be decisive.
State Department Cold
Although the final word remains to
be spoken the State Department, to
the present. has been rather cold
toward the new scheme. British and
French diplomacy, are now combin-
ing. Il is understood, to overcome this
coldness.
Even more persuasive, il is hoped,
Viii be the cumulative effect OF the
accomplished fact for France, Spain
mud Great Britain are going ahead
rasolutcly with their plans beginning
TO-DAY.
The new scheme briefly is as fol-
lows: Tangfers and it's. zone of 200
square miles are permanently inter
ratianalized and neutralizcd, aud all
forms Of fertilization threatening the
freedom and passage of the straits
are strictly forbidden.
International Control.
The city Will have international and
tnuniciral police, while the zop~
will be patrolled by $50 Belgian
gendarr,@A Theoretically the s .ltan
Of Morocco r~taths sovereignty. Prac-
tically Tangiers will be governed by
a control committee consisting of the
diplomatic representatives of all
eignatorieS TO the act OF AlgeciraS,
including the United Sta ties. The ad-
n1inistrative officer will be French,
with one British and one Spanish as
sistant, but after six years the as
sembly will name its successors.
The assembly will consist of rs
members, + Moors, 3 Jews. French
Spanish and 8 British. and the rest
will be apportioned among other in
terested powers, first appointed and
later elected. The Moslems will live
under the Koranic law and the sub
!ects of Christian powers will be I'M
der the jurisdiction of mixed tri-
hunals.
