DECLINE OF FISH YIELD
BEING INVESTIGATED

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Constant
warnings that the fish supply Of the
American people is in danger are re-
ceiving attention from those interest
ed in this important source Of our
food supply. According to statistics
gathered along this section Of the At
lantic the shad, one Of the most i'm
pOrtant fish from a food standpoint,
is yearly growing harder to catch in
paying quantities. The price is get
ting higher accordingly, and is much
greater in Washington than it was
a few years ago, when shad was a
very economical food in season. The
grabbing industry has been suffering
also off the Maryland and Virginia
coasts with the result that crabs dur
ing the season Of 1925 were scarcer
and higher IN price than ever before.
Two of the most important Ameri-
can fishes are the cod and the had
dock, caught in northern waters, and
while the supplies of these fish show
no visible signs Of depletion, the num-
Der Of fishermen engaged in catching
them is increasing steadily and the
Bureau of Fisheries has begun an in.
vestigation to see what the situation
actually is.
At the present time the banks OF
this side Of the Atlantic are beinl
fished not only by Americans anC
Canadians, but are being visited b!
ships from Spain, Portugal, Franc.
and other European nations, in in
creasing numbers. The report Of tn
u. S. Bureau Of Fisheries says:
"The results Of this increase in tn
intensity Of fishing cannot be fore
told, but the Importance Of the in
dustry to the American people an

resources unimpaired are such that a

MASON RISKED FORTUNE
IN BEHALF OF COUNTRY

WASHINGTON, D. Compare
few Americans are acquainted
with the history of George Mason,
Revolutionary patriot, neighbor anG
friend of George Washington, whose
two hundredth birth anniversary was
cOmmemorated a few weeks ago. H..
o. Bishop, writes in an interesting
vein of this American hero in the Ma
tional Republic under the caption:
'The Master Of Gunston Hail." Mr..
Bishop says in part:
"The twO-hundredth anniversary
Of the birth Of George Mason, friend
and neighbOr Of George Washington
and one Of the greatest constructive
statesmen America has ever pro-
duced, was celebrated on October 25,

WILL SEEK TO DIVORCE
COURT FROM LEAGUE

WASHINGTON, D. C-According
to best informed opinion here the
forces in the Nnited States senate
which oppose the joining Of the Unit
ed States in Z league court are pre-,
pairing to put up a strenuous fight
to divorce the World Court from the
League of Nations.
Senator BOrah recently stated to a
newspaper correspondent here: 81 am
IN favor Of joining a world court that
is separated from the league and 1
believe that public opinion through
out the nation strongly endorses such
a separation"
The indications are that the So
called irrecOncilables on the league
issue viii make a strenuous CAM
paign for divorcing the league and
the court and that the principal fight
ing will be in this direction. Whether
such proposed separation will be Of
fered in the way Of amendments or
viii come in the form of a brand new
resolution remains to be seen but it
is evident even at this early date
that there will be prolonged debate
on the subject.
Although the SUBJECT will come up
in the senate within a very few days
this is not taken to mean that the
World Court viii be debated continu-
ously until it is finally disposed CT.
It is generally agreed in all quarters
that the debate will be extended, per
haps rivalling in volume that OF the
League Of Nations and that a great
many amendments, other than those
proposed by Secretary Of State
Hughes, will be offered and voted on
looking toward separating the court
from the league, and safeguarding
American sovereignty and American
tradition.
All sorts of polls Of the senate ar
Being taken but none of them ar,

BRITISH r RATES

Free trade advocates in the United States can
draw small comfort from London reports to the
effect that new import duties are seriously being
proposed in the British parliament. The COM
mittee of the Board Of Trade there which has been
i~nquiring into the subject has recommended that
there be duties on cutlery, gloves, packing and
wrapping paper and glass nantes. It is recon-
mended that the ad valorem duty on gloves and
cutlery be thirty-three and a third per cent for
the next five years.
It is said that these new duties are not meant
as retaliation against the United States because
of our protective tariff but are designed to pro-
tect British industry against German competition.
The industries manufacturing the articles on
which the duties are recommended, are said to
have suffered severely because of German impOr-
tations into Great Britain and something must
be done to save them from wreck.
Now wages have been steadily decreasing In
Great Britain for the past several years and there
is much industrial unemployment. If Great
Britain with wages lower than ours, and an idle
population anxious to work, cannot compete with
German importations, what would happen to tn,
United States if our tariff duties were lowered
We would Of course get a flood of imports from
all parts of Europe and from Great Britain too
The tariff at present is none too high, and on.
imports are steadily creeping up on our exports
A lowering of the tariff, as proposed by some o
our free trade statesmen would be little less thai
industrial suicide.

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

Once more Christmas-the anniversary of the
most momentOus event in the history of the
worlds near.
Nineteen hundred and twenty five years ago
none but those possessed of a Divine foresight
knew that the Christie be born of humble
parents and Graded in a manger-would exert on
humankind an influence infinitely greater than
that Of all the prophets, king and princes from
the beginning to the end of time.
The record-written in flaming script-of the
teachings and of the life of the lOwly Nazarene
have come down to us through the centuries.
It is as potent today as it was then. Christian
and on-Christian alike acknowledge the undeni-
able truth of the immutable principles He enun-
ciated and exemplified. The inspiration He gave
to the world nearly 1000 years ago is today a
factor in the lives, thoughts and actions Of count
less millions.
But at no time does that inspiration become
more manifest and rise to greater heights than
at Christmas time. Then people turn from
material things. Their souls yearn for spiritual
knowledge, their hearts expand with sympathy,
understanding, and love for their fellow beings,
and the true spirit of Christmas-sacrifice of
self for the benefit of Others-shines forth like
the star of Bethlehem. What a pity that spirit
cannot rule throughout the year!
At this glad Yuletide let not the influence of
worldly things hamper the soul in its efforts to
take one step nearer the goal set by the Great
Exemplar. Let wrongs be forgiven, let hatredS
be forgotten, let i~njustices be righted, and lei
emulation Of Jesus in the doing of good be the
dominant motive. Give the soul free rein to show
it's spiritual growth by the performance of acts
of kindness and affection-acts so acceptable tt
God!

EUROPE FOR
Chicago Tribune

There are those who think the United States
should have had a hand in the Gr~eek-BUlgarian
settlement, through membership IN the league.
To those persons there is the answer that the
European powers themselves gave through their
representatives who met at LocarnO.
Locarno was a declaration Of European indie
pendence from American interference. President
Coolidge talked of calling a land disarmament
conference. The diplomats who met at LOcarno
politely intimated that it was time Europe ran
her affairs in her own way. In naval dis
armament America had an interest and the Wash
ington conference was the result of it. In rep
arations America had an interest, because settle
ment of the international debt depended on Ger
many's paying up, and General Dawes trip and
his plan were the outcome, and all the large debtor
nations except France have negotiated a plan for
payment.
America, today has no immediate interest in
Europe, and Europe, as was stated at L~OcarnO,
has no great interest in America. If America
entered the league it would be entering a body
dealing with problems with which America has
no concern. Americas part would be that of the
cat's-paw.
Let Americans applaud LOcaTno, the ratification
of the treaties, and the success of the league from
these shores, without crossing the Atlantic t.
enter into a situation which would only lessen this
nations sovereignty and give nothing in return

investigation Of the biology Of the.
cod, pollock and haddOck has been
undertaken with the idea Of determ-

become apparent. It is important for
an understanding Of the general prin-
ciples OF fishery conservation to know
how such a great fishery can with
stand intensive exploitation over a
long period Of time without depletion.
