NEW METHOD OF FREEZING
 4ALIBUT

Tn connection with the opening this afternoon by J. J. Bowie, sec Getary of the Bioogical Board If Canada, of the new fisheries ex- perimental station at this port, there was a demonstration by D. B. Finn, acting director of the station, of a new brine method of freezing balibut that has been devised here and which is such an improvement in the matter of preservation of the fish that it will make possib- le the marketing of frozen fish on the eastern retail markets as the equal of fresh.
 The demonstration showed the difference between air frozen and brine frozen halibut under the new system developed bere, following Investigations that have been going on this season. Air frozen halibut, ] it was shown, was relatively dry when thawed out and the flesh was in no way comnerable to fresh halibut, whereas the flesh, when the brine method was mpIoyed, could hardly be distinguished from fresh fish either in texture or quality. The new method thus made it possible, the demonstration proved, to place brine frozen hali- but when thawed out on the market as the equal of fresh, which it was Impossible to do under the air freezing system. MT. Finn also gave 6 demonstration of the oils that caused old halibut to become yell low. EiiI Ms

WHALING INDUSTRY THREAT
 EMS HERRING FISHERIES

At the rate wnaYes are peYng kill ed in southeastern Alaska 1t Is on- ly a question of time when the great mammals will be extermin- ated and with them will go the her ring, according to fishermen who are we'll qualified to speak on the question.
 During the past season approxi- nately six hundred whales were killed by two big whaling outfits to the westward. This meant 8 revenue to the whaling stations of approximately six hundred thou sand dollars. AS far as Alaska was concerned it meant nothing in the way of revenue save the taxes raid.
 Contrary to belief, say experienc- Cd fishermen, the whale is one of the most valuable adjuncts to the herring industry. It is the herder of the deep, and drives the fish in- to shallow waters of the bays and inlets from which the major DOT tion of herring are taken. It is the habit of the whale to spot the herring when in the deep sea and begin rounding them up into com ract masses to better facilitate feeding. To escape the attacks of the whales, herring move inshore. These in turn are followed by sal- mon permitting of their capture before the spawning season and when they are at their best.
 The Scandinavian countries early discovered the value of the whale as an adjunct to herring fishing. In fact, the whale was the very keynote to successful fishing, in many instances herding the fish in- to such compact masses that those i'll the center Of the school were forced out of the water. The fish, ermen always sought the whales of the North Sea, knowing that they would be near the schools of her ring. fl
 With respect to local herring fishing, the waters of lower Cook Inlet are the most prolific in the orld. The quality of the fish talk en has established them as g staple article in the markets of the world.

CRIME NEWS

We do not believe that the news papers and those who clamor for the suppression of crime news exactly understand each other. It is hardly Hkelythat anyone wants all news about crime kept out of papers. It is rather the undue and unnecessary prominence that is giv- en to criminals and their deeds that is objected to and frequently this objection is more 8 matter of taste than of a desire to ignore crime. It must be apparent even to publishers of metropolitan dailies that the average editor lacks the proper perspective in dealingwith the daily grist of the crime in legger or a beer runner or crook logger or beer runner or croo- ed politician murders or gets mur- dered, the facts of the crime cer-
 tainly should be printed. But the minute details of criminal alliances, the intimate history of the under world characters, their silly nick. names, their lineage, and other familiar information so glibly dis cussed by police reports it is doubt full if any great number of news raper readers even in cities where
 such criminals thrive, are interes- 1 ted this minutja or even read
 1t when printed. We sometimes
 wonder why the police reporter is
 not relegated to a less important po-
 sition on the staff, merely for the sake of making a more readable pa
 per The average news editor is a peaceful individual, frequently
 domesticated, generally man of
 education and culture, and he must
 get weary of handling the sordid stories of lot of uninteresting low browa who would never get their
 names in the papers if they did not commit crimes.-Gibson City GIL ) z Courier.
The Alaskan., 1926-12-10

If, as is claimed, the whales will soon be exterminated, the fisher men will suffer untold loss and the industry will seriously crippled if not actually wiped out.
 Some years ago 1t was reported that the herring had left certain waters in the North Sea, and it was believed they had migrated. It was discovered that the exter- mination of the whale herds was the cause of disappearance of the fish. The Scandinavian countries immediately enacted laws protect ing the whales and the fish are again in their accustomed waters.
 The herring fishermen are alarm cd at the rate the whales are being killed to the Westward, and it is reported the matter will be taken Up with the Bureau of Fisheries, asking that curtaiiment be made in the taking of such large num- bers mammals each year.-An- cnrage Times.

The members OF the Washington
Real Estate Board who returned from
the annual convention Of the National
Association Of Real Estate Boards in
Tulsa by special train. on Monday,
played a conspicuous part in the meet
ing, which is considered the largest
annual gathering of business men In
the country.
The local delegation left here June

At the secretaries banquet Mr.
Schick made a comprehensive outline
OF the meaning and the effect of the
recent decision of the United States
Supreme Court in regard to the case
of Buckley VS.. Corrigan. which in
vOlved the sale of restricted residen.
tial property to coIored person
This explanation by Mr.. Schick was
of particular interest to the national
association. because the members Of
the local board of which Mr.. Schick
is secretary, are closer than any other
organization to the developments and
proceedings in the case. The consen-
sus of opinion was that this decision
of the Supreme Court was the most
far-reaching affecting the real estate
condition of the entire country In
many years.
Among the Washingtonians elected
to serve in official capacity on the va
rious divisions of the national asso-
citation were H. l.. Rust, jr., elected
to the governmental body of the
members Of the loan division of the
association and Robert Bates War

BY ROSE GREELY,
I.andscane Archiienf

Readers of The Evening Star who
have been following The Stars cam
paign for better homes, will be inter
ested, now that the houses are al
most complete, in the development Of
their grounds. The fact has been
recognized that better homes mean
not only better houses, but better
grounds as well. and each plot has
been studied with a view to the best
use of the land. The treatment of
the grounds of these houses will
prove OF interest to every small house
owner who has a similar problem.
And as the lots are typical Of hun
dreds of lots in Washington and its
vicinity, the plot plans and a discrip
ton of each may be helpful.
The plan illustrated shows the de-
velopment of the grounds of the
house in Lee Heights, Va, designed
by Ward Brown. architect, for Ruby
Lee Minar. builder. The small white
frame house is reminiscent of the
old Virginia farmhouse type. and it
is imperative that this character
should be recognized in the grounds
A white picket fence. either painted
or whitewashed, fruit trees and a
grape arbor, these are features which
will make the house feel at home
But a nice problem Is met at the out.
set in tying such a development to
the modern subdivision Of which it
is a part. 1t Is a street of open
lawns, and white picket fence close
to the sidewalk would he unpleasant
ly abrupt, breaking the vista down
the street, and impressing a little
too much upon the neighbors the
owners desire for seclusion and pri-
vacy. A compromise is reached by
leaving an open public lawn to con-
form with the rest of the street,
screening off with hedge and fence
and planting, private living areas at
each side of the house. The picket
fence, inclosing a private lawn and
tying house and garage together is
most effective in the composition.
Trees to Be Planted.
The public lawn serves as a setting
for the house and an approach to 1t.
AS there are no existing trees, elms
may be transplanted to frame the
view of the house from the street and
to cast desired shade. AS the house
