expressed the belief today that the
death of Premier lionel Bratianu would
expedite legal return to the country

Even with Vintela Bratianu in

convinced that the long sway of the
Bratianu family over Rumanian affairs
was nearing it's close.
Bratianu's defeat in the recent

very powerful group of ideas and

At present it concerns itself mainly
with the question of how to secure
the most effective labor. We discover
that long hours are often less profit
able to every one concerned than rea.
sonably short hours; that air, light,
cheerful conditions for the worker are
good investments. The Investigations
spread to an inquiry into the workers
home. Presently we shall realize that
the waste of strikes, unwilling serv-
ice, sabotage and other forms Of in.
dustrial friction is largely due to the
want of reasonable hope in the work
er's life and that it will be good bust
ness and good politics to give the
worker hope and security. And it will
be impossible to study industrial eff
ficiency in the mine and field and
workshop we shall find, and ignore
the bearing Of the country house and
the directors home upon the quality
of the economic services rendered. In
other words. we shall bring the social
system to the tombstone of efficiency
instead of to the bar of justice.
Few people nowadays defend or at.
tack private property on grounds of
abstract morality and justice. Owner.

shrimp fry, during the latter part of June, July and August. Tn septem- ber the shrimp fry becomes too large and then only the largest sil es of herring seem to devour them One of the peculiar traits of her ring is that the herring apparently knows just when and where to get this food. Chatham Straits, Fred erick Sound and Stevens Passage have the most extensive shrimp beds in Alaska. And for this reason the herring yearly migrate to these wa ters. However, when northerly winds are prevailing, as occurred during this year. the shrimp spawn and fry are blown out to sea and the herring found It's food at sea and did not need to go to the trouble of coming inside for food.
 The herring and feed are still out there safe from the fishermen, the saltery and the by-products plant We have seen them for miles and miles as late as the first of Septem- Der and there is feed enough to last a long time. This should be real encouragement to the conservation ists.
 Whenever southerly winds arc predominating in the spring and early summer the herring feed on small black looking shell fish spawn. The Odor from this food so pene- trates the fish that they are impos- sible for human food. Apparently the herring don't like them any too well either for as soon as they get hold of shrimp spawn they devour them with an enormous appetite, leaving the black feed for rainy day.
 When and where do they spawn During late fall and winter and early spring, depending on the sp4- cies, of which they are approximate ly more than a hundred. And they spawn in salt water either at sea or near shore. It can be said that the herring will spawn at nearly any place. Indeed, so prolific are they that one eminent Scotch authority

(Pacif1c Fisherman)

Various people and organizations in Southeastern Alaska are again carrying on an active agitation against the herring industry, and urgent petitions are being sent to the Government to further restrict fishing, and in particular to stop the use of herring for reduction. It iy asserted that the herring fishery Is being depleted, and much stress is placed upon the potential import ance of the herring as a food fish, as we'll as a food for more valuable species, such as salmon and halibut. Many of the claims made, however
 do not seem to be supported by con- vincing evidence, and it is by no means clear that the industry can rightly be held responsible for the conditions complained of, even if they really exist. Further, little mo- tice is taken of the fact that herring fishing is already grealy restricted.
 Such facts as are known scarcely warrant the assumption that the her ring in Southeast Alaska is being de- pleted, or that the toll taken of the supply is in any way excessive. Probably the greatest cause of pre-

billions, 12 years being the average life of the herring.
 The North Sea, where millions of barrels of herring are caught, is the only place in the world where the herring is anywhere near as extens- i've as in Alaska. We have not ye: seen any official report of them be. irg fished out in the North Sea, and the North Sea does not have either quality or quantity that Alaska has.
 It should be remembered that there are areas which have been closed to herring fishing and that there is closed season during which no herring can be caught for com mercial purposes. In addition tC these regulations there is weekly closed period from six o'clock Saturday night to six O. clock Monday morning but, as her. ring fishing can only be carried on during the night, in reality this weekly closed period is of AS hours duration instead of 36 hours. Be- ing protected by law during the spawning season on account of the closed areas and periods and because of the herring being so prolific, ap- proximately 3O,OOO eggs for each female, the herring cannot be fish ed out.
 So why all the unfounded bally- hooing? Chiefly because there are no scientific data for reference, but only hearsay and prejudices based on ignorance of facts
 What is the relation between a large run of herring as compared with a large run of king salmon? Absolutely none because there are always plenty of herring for sal mon feed. Last year was without doubt the greatest run of king sal mon that anybody knew of in Chath- am Straits. The run of king sal mon was only normal, if that, This season we had the smallest run of herring since 1915, and large run of king salmon, so it is not proven that the run of king salmon has any
