Summarizing the results of the com missions work so far as highly satis- factory, MT. Babcock announced that further scientific studies of halibut would be made during next winter and that the commission would call into conference in the fall all halibut fish, ermen and others interested in the in- dustry. After hearing the views of the fishing business in this way the com mission, MT. Babcock stated, will file an interim report to the Canadian and United States governments.
 Closing of some of the more de- pleted southern halibut banks will be one of the measures considered by the commission when it starts to frame it's recommendations MT. Babcock's state ment indicated. It has been estab- lished that these banks have been seriously depleted, and their average return for unit of fishing gear used has been reduced to mere fraction of its former size.
 MT. Bobcock's summary of the com missions work ran as follows:
 "The commission has, as has many times been stated, engaged in a study of the halibut fishery and the life-his- tory of the halibut, for the Canadian and United States governments. A vast amount of data has been col lected to establish the condition of the fishery, and experiments have been conducted to disclose the facts in the life-history of the halibut which are essential to the administration of the fishery.
 We have a complete record of the catches landed at all important ports of the coast from 1914 to date, show ing the vessels making these catches and their composition from the stand point of size. As to the vessels list ed, we have their numbers and sizes, the number of days spent on each trip and, to a great extent, the location of the banks fished. A great many of these boats have, during the past years, kept splendid records of their daily catches, and have generously put these at the disposal of the com mission. From these records we have been able to tabulate the time spent in reaching the banks, the number of hours actual fishing for the catch ob- tained, the amount of gear used each day and the catch obtained thereby. The seasonal changes and the tenden- cy of the abundance of the fish on, the banks are clearly shown. It is safe to say that there is very little extant data which has been overlooked.
 Serious Depletion
 t.The statistical data indicates clear ly that depletion has taken place ev- erywhere, the degree of this deple- ton far exceeding anything which could possibly be confused by minor errors such as difference in gear used.

Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt. Widow OF
President, Buys Inn Only to Pre-
serve Her Ancestral Home.

Danielson, Aug. 50 UP) Al
though Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt,
widow of the late president, has
purchased Mortlake Inn, at Brook
Ign, she does not intend to become
an innkeeper.
"My only reason in buying the inn
was to preserve my ancestral home,
built by my great-great grandfather,
Colonel Daniel Tyler, in 1865" she
said today in denying reports. that
she planned to conduct the inn on a
commercial basis.
Il have no intention of entering
the hotel business and will continue
to live at Oyster Bay" Mrs. Roosc-
welt said.
Miss Marian Prentice Thompson,
from whom the inn was purchased,
said she had been retained by Mrs.
Roosevelt to have charge of the
place.
"As in the past" she declared,
I'VE will have guests at the inn, but
they will in no way conflict with the
plans of Mrs. Roosevelt. who also
will be a guest at the inn whenever
she chooses"
Mortlake Inn has long and col
orful history. General Israel Put
nam was a frequent visitor IN the
early days. His grave is located
nearby and the inn sometimes is
called the General Putnam Inn.
