Canada and u. S. Plan
Treaty to Save Salmon

Canada and the United States will
join hands in Seattle early in June
to put the salmon industry of Puget
Sound and the Straits of Georgia
back on it's feet.
, Fraser River, one of the greatest
salmon spawning streams in the
world, produced 100000 cases of sal
mon in 1918. Last year it produced
$4,000.
Because of the international char
acter of the river, Washington and
British Columbia will tackle the prob
lem together.
Department of Commerce officials
will meet here with Washington State
and Canadian officials. They'll tall;
over terms of an agreement. Then
an international treaty, like the re.
cent halibut treaty, will be drawn up
and signed.
Great Britain wouldn't sign the hal.
ibut agreement. So Canada told her
mother country to go on about her
business and signed it herself, prac.
tically declaring her independence.
The treaty was signed in November,
1924.
The halibut commission, Of which
John P. Babcock, Canadian, is presi-
dent, already is getting results. Mil
Ter Freeman, Seattle, is a member.
Canadian National railways indirect
ly caused falling off of the industry.
In 1913 it rebuilt its tracks. Blasts
caused landslides that blocked the
Fraser River. Sockeye couldn't get
up to spawning beds. They died by
millians in He'll Gate Canyon, below
the slide.
Henry O'Malley. commissioner, U.
5. Fisheries Bureau, and Stephen B.
Davis, attorney for the Department Of
Commerce, will come to Seattle for
the international meeting.
II hope the treaty we draft will be
ready for submission to the Canadian
parliament at Ottawa and to our own
Congress, at their next session.
O'Malley said.

Britain Building Up
Home Sugar Industry

NEW YORK.-That Great Britain
has definitely abandoned it's tradi-
tional free trade policy in the matter
of sugar and is setting out in earnest
to develop the production of its sugar
at home is the statement of Lord
Invernain, one of the leading figures in
British industry, chairman of the
board of directors of the Anglo Scot
fish Sugar Corporation and Of the
great machinery manufacturing firm
of Duncan Stewart & Co. In an inter-
view given to Facts about Sugar"
while stopping here on his way to ia
maica Lord Invernain said:
"The war awakened Englishmen to
the necessity of producing at least
good part Of their sugar at home. The
cutting off of the supplies they had
been receiving from Germany and
Austria-Hungary and the difficulty of
obtaining sugar from other quarters
showed the danger of depending upon
foreign countries for an important
foodstuff like sugar."
To encourage the development of
the British beet sugar industry, i'm
prove the condition of British farm
ers and provide work in British fac
tories for the unemployed the gov
eminent has placed bounty on home
grown sugar which is to run for ten
years, beginning at los Cd per cwt. or
about 423 cents a pound at present
exchange and gradually declining
after four years. This is more than
double the tariff protection extended
to American sugar producers and en-
ables the British sugar companies to
pay a high rate to the farmers for
their sugar beets.
AS a result of this policy no less
than five new beet sugar factories will
be built in England in time for opera
ton next fall and probably twice that
number will be ready by the end Of
next year.
I'VE hope eventually to be able to
produce enough sugar in England and
the colonies to supply all our needs"
said Lord Invernain. 1--WE recognize
that the general adoption of sugar
beet CROWN g will bring about great
improvement in the condition Of Bri-
!, fish farmers and will provide employ
ment for a large number of workers,
besides the advantage 1t will give to
| consumers Of not having to depend on
foreign countries for their sugar sup
ply and not sending abroad huge sums
of money every year to pay for sugar
bought from abroad"

And NowI Am An Author!

A few months ago my first novel
was published by Doubleday, Page &

How commonplace that sounds in

Since | was six years old | have

have not started our novels or novel

them aside, perhaps forever, in order
to get dinner?
But after dinner | always went

U. S. Grain Corporation
Kept Up Wheat Prices

| WASHINGTON.- price
fixing on wheat during the war, far
from reducing the return to the for
mer which he might have obtained in
free market, increased the selling
price and maintained it against influ-
ences which would have held it on a
lower level, it is said in an official
publication by DR.. Frank M. Surface
issued and approved by Secretary
Hoover.
DR.. Surface, who was economist for
the United States Grain Corporation,
which handled the war job of con
trolling breadstuff prices and dis
tribution, has revealed some hitherto
undisclosed steps taken by the Grain
Corporation in carrying out its policy.
DR.. Surface said that the grain cor
poration during 1919 sought almost
entirely to hold up grain prices, and
as Mr.. Hoover noted in the introduc
ton, got on "the bull side of the
market" to the extent of $500,000 900.
the price of wheat, the document is
designed to show, as it was to sta
Billie it and prevent speculation that
might have mulcted even to greater
extent the consumers of the United
States and its allies in the war.
Mr.. Hoover's comment and DR.. Sur
faces statistical exhibits undertake
to show that European allies, hav-
ing been thrice caught by sharp price
increases in the American markets
after the farmer had marketed his
holdings, were in 1917 prepared to
control the situation. BY centraliz-
ing their buying and exercising alb.
solute control over the only markets
for export wheat, they were prepared
to make the price in the United
States hold to level of about $1.50
a bushel in 1917
When the American government
named a figure Of 1920 bushel and
enforced it, the European combina-
ton was compelled to submit. Not
withstanding, as the war progressed,
sopping up the worlds shipping re-
sources, the bottoms available to the
southern hemisphere producers Of
Argentina, Australia and India grew
less and less adequate. The result
was a gradual accumulation of sur
plus Of wheat in storage there.
In 1919, consequently, with the re-
lease Of shipping from troop and NUM-
lions transport, flood Of this grain
was turned loose. The American
price would have been utterly shot
to pieces, DR.. Surface concluded, had
not the grain corporation stepped in,
taking unhesitatingly all offers.
The holdings were eventually liQui-
dated without loss but the contention
is that the whole operation of the
government in wheat during the
1920 period was in the direction OF
upward price maintenance.
