 For many years a great fleet of vessels had been bringing down herring from Labrador to Boston to be made into Yarmouth bloat- CTS. but by 1880 the fish became so scarce that that ground was abandoned altogether. It was found that large herring could be got in the Bay of Fundy, and the fleet transferred it's activities to those waters. Some fish had been taken there in the late sixties. But this field soon became exhausted too, with unrestricted fishing and the last cargo sailed away in 1889. There are still small herring taken about the Bay of Fundy, but these come up around Nova Scotia and the quantity depends a good deal on the weather and the tides. East winds in the spring seem to bring the feed and drive the tides. Once the fish get near the mouth of the bay a good seasons catch is assur-

 WARNS THAT HERRING

(Reprinted from the Vancouver

 Sir Announcement has been made that the minister of marine and fisheries has decided that the reduction plants which were oper- ating on pilchards for three months may continue operation, using her ring-the most valuable of all fish in any part of the world. If pre- caution is not taken the fate of the herring fishing on the Atlantic Coast will be repeated on our own seaboard. This is inevitable, es- peeialIy as the machinery and purse seines used today can destroy more fish in three months than could be destroyed formerly in two years.
 Unfortunately the portfolio of minister of marine and fisheries has changed hands in the past thir- ty years almost as many times as the moon changes. The truth of it is the minister knows nothing about fish. The work of the de- partment is left to MT. W. A. Found, a former school teacher from the Island.

STRENGTH TESTS MADE
ON ALASKA WOOD

The District Forester at Juneau has just received from the Forest Products Laboratory of the Forest Service, Madison, Wisconsin. a de tailed report on a study which has been made of the strength of the principal Alaskan trees, Including Sitka spruce. white spruce, western hemloek, mountain hemloek, west ern red cedar, Alaska cedar and AL aska birch. The tests Were made on wood shipped in log form to Madison by the Forest Service from various points in Alaska. The pur- pose of the study was to determine the suitability of local woods for heavy construction work such as bridges. and WharVes and for large buildings used by mines, canneries, sawmills and other industrial plants.
 The report, which is a technical one prepared primarily for the use of engineers and construction men, shows the weight which can be safely placed on the various kinds of wood when using them as tim bers for given purposes. It also compares their strength with that of woods from other parts of the United States.
 The tests prove eonclusiYely that the local woods are not inferior in strength to those of similar species from other parts of the Pacific Coast and that they are well suited and can be safely used for heavy construction work. It is thought that for such purposes the infor- nation obtained by these tests will encourage the use of local timber and thus decrease the tendency to ship outside material into the Ter ritory.
 The report will be available for free distribution in few weeks and an effort will be made to place copies in the hands of all parties interested in construction work.

Every proposal for eliminating

met with united opposition from

AMERICAN ACT DEFENDED
Cabinet Fails to Reach Conclusion
on Chinese Policy.

WASHINGTON, April Follow
ing a Cabinet discussion today of
the Chinese situation, the Admin
istration remained undecided whether
to act alone or jointly with other
powers in demanding guarantees of
the nationalists for protection of for
eign lives and property.
Unless sudden emergency arises,
President Coolidge and Secretary
Kellogg may delay their instructions
to Minister MacMurray several days,
it was stated.
Proposal Studied
The State Department continued
its study of the joint draft demand
prepared by MacMurray and the
British and Japanese ministers in
Pekin. The Administration is under
stood ready to ask indemnity for
the Marking outrages of March "a
and for suitable nationalist pledges
that such Outrages will not occur
| elsewhere. But this Government is
not yet committed to issuing an ulti-
matum of a sweeping nature, which
the British are reported to favor.
MacMurray, as reported yesterday
exclusively by the United Press, has
submitted to President Coolidge joint
draft demands to the Nationalist,
which he prepared with the British
and Japanese ministers in Picking.
COolidge's Views
President Coolidge is described as
determined to supplement American
naval and military precautionary
measures with diplomatic action COW
ering claims for past outrages and
adequate guarantees, but as unwill
ing to take any action which might
tend TO align this Government on
one side or the other.
