Largest Cod Caught

Especial TO henneDec JOurnal)
Belfast, Me-, July 9--Here's a fish
story as is a fish story and a true
one at that. Elias and Bruce Bah
cock, aged IL and Is, sons of o. E.
Babcock, who are spending the sum-
mer in one of the kittredge cottages,
caught a 35-pound cod measuring 8
feet, inches, within 20 yards of the
shore and which, when they attempt
ed to pull it in, came so near swamp
ing their boat they had to stick and
disembowel it to save themselves.
These youngsters who spend every
minute of daylight in or on the water
while here, set a trawl in front of
the cottage, batting 1t each night and
pulling it in in the morning. To
their amazement yesterday morning
they had what they at first thaught
to be a young whale and pulling it In
found a cod which is undoubtedly the
largest taken from the harbor in
many years. The only scales they
had for weighing were u pounds and
these they broke with their catch.

Concord, n. H., in the fall, and what
thye won't be able to tell the other
boys about Maine. won't be worth

BritOns Believe
u. S. Seeks Control
Worlds Meat Supply

London, July 9-(Pl-The United
States, under leadership of the great
packing firms lis engaged in a trade
war with Great Britain to control the
worlds meat supply in order to COM
pensate for steadily decreasing home
production, in the opinion of the
London Daily Mail.
The Americans, represented by the
Swifts, Armours and the Wilson's,
says the Mail, "have attempted to
drive British firms off the (London)
market. by sending Argentine chilled
beer to Great Britain regardless of
the known requirements, thereby
forcing down prices and causing Ar
gentlne meat to be sold below the
cost of importation. They, of course,
lose severely on British trading, out
their control of the American home
enables them to force up prices In the
United States so as to cover their
losses here"
The paper declares that the fight
for the London market is merely the
prelude to a greater trade war in
which the interests of the entire
British Isle may be at stake. While
the United States now is capable of
producing Its own meat supply, with
In a fewNyears 1t Will be compelled to
IMPORT because of the RAPID growth
of the population. Australian and
Canadian exports will be curtailed for
similar reasons and Argentina vii.
become in consequence the worlds
meat production center.
British control of Argentine ex-
ports Is said to have dropped already
from Sc to % per cent of the total.
The Daily Mail believes that if the
London fight is won by the American
packers they will have more than half
of the domination of the worlds meat
market. and then Great Britain Will
be at the mercy of nation which
will demand the very highest prices
for what it consents to supply"

POSSIBLE HALTINC
OF SUB AND FL CARS
IN new YORK TODAY

New York, July e.-(P)-The city's
millions went home tonight uncertain
whether the Juice" that runs by
trains under and above the sidewalks
Of New York would still be flowing
through the third rails in the morn
ing.
Today was the fourth day of the
strike of insurgent motormen and
switchmen of the Interborough sub
way system, who broke away from
the recognized union to form their
own organization and demand higher
wages. 1t was marked by indications
that at least a part of the INTERIOR
ough's power men would join the
strike. If these men struck and were
not replaced both subways and ele-
waited trains throughout the city
would be stopped. Company officials
announced, however, that power men
would be replaced just as the motor
men and sWitchmen had been.
At a strike meeting today a score
of power men from the night shift
voted to join the strike at midnight
and a gathering of some rs power
men rendered vote of confidence to
James +. Walsh, leader of the dis
gruntled power men.
The company announced that pow
er men attended the strike meeting
in violation of orders and immediate
ly transferred "a men to other posi-
tons where they would not de able
to do any harm or spread disaffec-
ton.
Balloting of the power men on the
strike question was scheduled to
continue through the evening, de-
finite strike action to be taken as
soon as the vote was complete.
The day was marked by the first
accident of the strike when a sub
way train rounded the south of a
soop too fast and jumped the track.
NO one was injured. Subway men
were charged with attacking news
papermen, beating them, tearing up
their notes and ejecting them from
the subway.
AS result of an investigation of
the derailment by the transit COM
mission District Attorney Banton
announced tonight that tomorrow he

Says Tolerance

Virtues Mankind

Paris, July 9.-(Pg-Tolerance Is
one of the greatest virtues in the
opinion of George Clemenceau,
Frances war premier, as expressed
in extracts from his long expected
book on civilization, appearing to-
day in ILLUSTRATION.
"One virtue above all I would rec
ommend for obtaining a happy full
filment of our personal evolution, and
thereby of our general civilization,
and that is tolerance" NJ. Clemen-
ceau writes.
Tolerance is the virtue which fac
ilitates all of our accords that show
forbearance to one another by OPEN
ing every avenue of life leading to
freedom of the human mind"
M. Clemenceau, pink-cheeked and
remarkably hale despite his So years.
today chatted about his cming book
with tEe detachment of a critic. 1t
will be called "Au Soir de La Pen
see," which may be freely translated
Thoughts in the Evening of Life"
The premier said that he expected
to publish it in France and the
United States but that in the mean
while he had given the manuscript
to ILLUSTRATION. 1.-The editor is
picking out bits which he thinks
would be interesting to the general
public" NJ. Clemenceau said THE
first one, appearing this week, is
taken from toward the end of the
book. My idea is to bring together
what man is able to tell himself
about through the several sciences
Asked if he brought out his own
philosophy of life in his book, he
answered: yes, l think that if the
entire book is read, you could find
here and there my personal philo-
sophy."

pose of us in due time. The way to
employ our day is to lead the way

1t is not likely that the French text
of the book will be published before
March 1927 and it will be somewhat
later when the American translation
appears.

up the call and rushed by dog sled
t. the Hudson Bay Company Post. on

enabled The hunters and to
live through the winter.
A brief telegram was received at
westinghouse radio station WBZ to-
day, which said:
Messages to Southampton Island

WBZ were received and rescue made
by rushing food and supplies from
Chesterfield Inlet Radio messages
from WBZ were picked up by Father
Pigeon of the Oblate Fathers, located

The telegram was the last chapter
In a drama that began when the Bay
Eskimo, supply ship of the Hudson
Bay Company, was crushed in the ice
OF Hudson's Straits on July %. 1925.
The ship was then en- route to the
post on Southampton Island. The
relief ship, laden with provisions in
place of the Bay Eskimo, failed to
penetrate to the lonely post during
the short Arctic summer and at last,
the company asked station WBZ to
broadcast this message:
The following message is for Hud-
son Bay Company at Chesterfield In

THE company's relief ship failed
to reach Southampton this season.
Consequently, that post is INSULT

Almost two years ago the company
had equipped many of its posts SCI
tered through the Arctic with radio
receiving sets for the reception of
messages which would otherwi take
months to oliver, and for the enter
tainment of trappers during the long
winter nights. Already they have
proven priceless on occasions. of life
and death.
Chesterfield Inlet was listening I'M
when the appeal went Pickering
northward on the ether. The rescue
party started quickly on it's way, it
was learned, but was forced to cover
large stretch of water.
Practically all of the travelling was
done in the dark, for in November
the period of daylight near the Arc
tic Circle was very short.
