Moscow. Nov. 2 tPl-The Moscow ed divorce decree to Feodor thal- iapin famous basso. from Iolle Ig- naticNna Chaliapin whom he mar ried 29 years ago and from whom he had been separated for the past 21 years.
 The formality was simple. Judge Shorin read ChaIiapin's application for Il divorce from Iolle Chaliapin and his offer 10 pay her $500 monthly alimony until her death.
 Counsel for Madame Chaliapin stated she had no objections to the divorce being granted nor to the conditions offered.

 Feodor Chaliapin. for time hold = CT of the title. "people's artist" of Soviet Russia, filed application on October 2S for divorce from Madame Chaliapin through the Russian en- bassy in Paris.
 The famous Basso's offer 10 pay $500 d month alimony caused con- siderable criticism in the Soviet cap- ital where 1t was remarked that this was enough money to maintain an entire orphan asylum in Russia.
 Madame Chaliapin is Roman Catholic and friends say she sue cessfully opposed any suggestion of divorce during the Czarist regime in Russia. It was expected by many of her friends that she would oppose the application which was granted today.

LEADERS CALLED C0WARDS
Parliament Not To Meet .Agait- Had Found Financial Budget h. complete and Was To Object Government Had Lost Strength.

Warsaw. Nov. Rl-The Polish diet and senate were dissolved to- day by Vice Premier Bartel amidst q great uproar to prevent the op- position from airing it's diSsatisflc- ton with the governments policies
 The session lasted only three min- utcs but those minutes were filled with shouts against the government and denunciations of the govern ment leaders powers.
 Immediately after the opening of the session, Vice President Bartel mounted the rostrum and read Pres ident Moscicki"s decree suspcnding both houses.
 Received With shouts
 The decree was received with a great noise and shouting. "The gov rrnnent is a government Of cow ards It is afraid ot us." shouted thc opposition.
 By tn" decree, parliament was dissolved until the end of November and in view of the fact that it's term or office expires with Novem- her, il will not meet again since the constitution prescribes the hold ing of new elections within three months.
 The government few days ago sent the budget for the next finan- cial year to the diet, but contrary to usual custom sent only the total figures without specifications. Tho diet found the budget incomplete and was preparing to express it's objections while the opposition hoped to profit by the occasion to voice it's dissatisfaction with the governments entire policy during the past year.
 President Moscicki of Poland last week issued q call for a regular soS- sion of the diet and senate to open October 31 to vote the budget de- spite the fact that the diet had been adjourned in September to avoid conflict between that body and the government.

Just what extent cannot be estimaz
ted. Some of the fish thus eseap-

one is not warranted in assuming
thai the Southeast Alaska pack will
be reduced anything like 30 per
cent; but It is safe to say that the
output, on the average. will be ap-
preeiably reduced. and the reduc-
ton will be relatively greater in

To give greater assurance of an
adequate esoapement in Bristol Bay.
this area has been divided into four
zones in which fishing is permitted.

providing considerable closed space
between fishing zones. The Nush-
agak zone. roughly, is from Cape

the length of nets is cut from 200
fathoms to $50 fathoms. The
Kviehak-N aknek zone is from
Middle Blum to Cape Etolin; the
Egegik zone comprises Is miles
along the shore around the Egegik
River; and the Ugashik zone. 90
miles around the Ugashik River, to
be defined by markers. With the
understanding that the total mum
Der of boats will not exceed 913, as
last year, the fishing season remains
at 30 days, with a 36-hour weekly
closed period; the weekly closed
period will be increased If more
boats are operated, figuring on the
total number of fishing hours per
boat for the season with the pres
ent fleet. Additional weir eonstrue-

Opening Dates Adopted

shall recommend an open
ing date in all districts of South
east Alaska. This will make i
unlawful for anyone to place his
webbing or actual fishing gear
in the water prior to the open
ing date. 1t does not prevent
the construction of traps nor the
placing of floaters, but the fish
ing gear must not be put in place
for actual fishing until the date
that will be indicated in the
regulations; otherwise. I presume
there would be many who would
feel, with the present law in eff
feet. that it would be necessary.

part of the year.
