ITALY WILL HAVE NEW REGIME SOON
Elections Are to Be Done Away
 With by Fascist

Rome, Aug. 25 Pt-Every city, governed by a representative ap- pointed by the national facist gov ernment under the terms of new decree which will be adopted on Aug. 30 by the council of minis ters, according to well-informed po- litical circles.
 The new system, which was drawn up by Luigi Federzoni, national sec retary of the fascist party, amounts 10 an extension of the podesta sys- tenn already used in communes of less than 5000 population. It will be put into effect within year.
 The type of municipal admins traitor in large cities has not been decided, but it is probable that there will be a governorship such as ex- such as in Naples and Milan, or a podesta as in the smaller towns.
 One of the first consequences of the new system will be the reVoea- ton of the right of administrative suffrage granted 10 women by a re- cent law, since elections of all sorts will be abolished.
 The innovation. in addition to complying with the fascist principle of the centralization of political power in the hands of the national state, is expected to achieve notable economies. These particularly win include the elimination of the 2,000 lire expended in the formation and maintaining of electorial lists and the management of elections.
 The decision will make permanent Premier Mussolini's recent tempo rary suspension of the communal. municipal and provincial elections. This latter order was issued because the podesta system has proved suc- cessful in eliminating dissension in communues and in effectings econo- mics.

.PT. HOBROv WHALING
 PLANT ACTIVITIES ARE CLOSED FUR SEASON
MANAGER SCHUPP AND 55 MEN PASS THRU FEN ROUTE TO
 SEATTLE

The whaling season is over, opera tions at the, Port Hebron plant coming the closing of the big station a most successful season is climaxed. Lead by General Superintendent Henry Schupp, 55 men who have been en- ployed at the station all through the season, arrived in Seward on the s. s. Lakina and departed on the vessels are now en route to Seattle.
 The remarkable record of PAP hump back whales were caught and one right whale. The catch was con- sidered excellent due to the lateness of beginning operations which began on July IS with two whalers. These boats were on the job alone until De- tober when four other whalers from the Akutan fleet joined. All of these vessels are now en route to Seattle four having stopped in port yesterday to take on oil.
 At Akutan 339 whales were caught, which number was slightly under last seasons record which was 496. The Lakina has aboard 258 drums of whale oil for shipment to Seattle, also 600 sacks of fertilizer.
 It is stated the Port Hebron plant will probably begin operations next spring during the forepart of April. Regarding the right-whale it is said this monster of the sea checked in at 100 tons and measured 58 feet in length. The humpback whales aver age between 35 and 40 tons each. Op- erations at the local plant would have continued all through this month, it was thought, if weather conditions had been in the least favorable but the recent gales made whaling ex- tremely hazardous.
