BY the Associated Press.


READING. Pa, November III
Many errors in tabulatinS the vote at
the recent election at which the So
cialist ticket, headed by Henry j.
Stump for mayor. was swept into Of
fice. have been revealed through re.
check by the board of ballots in the
first precinct of the second ward
Recount of the precinct was ordered
after Charles Kershner. Democrat, de-
feated for city treasurer by William
G. Hoverter. Socialist. filed petition
alleging that fraud and error had
been committed.
When the recount cut Hoverter's ;
lead over kershner in tho precinct
from So to IS, Judge Paul y. Scheffer
ordered that the vote of the entire
ward for all effices be rechecked. 1t
was believed in official circles that as
a result of the disclosures the vote in
the whole city. at least for city treas.
urer, would be recounted.
Hoverter, who has announced that
he would accept only $4,000 a year
salary as city treasurer. which with
fees pays approximately 100000 annu-
ally, defeated kershner by only mar.
row margin and some OF the latter's
friends believe this may be wiped out
by recount.

FISHING INDUSTRY
SHOWS MARKED GAIN
Government Experts Aid Respon'
sible for Prosperity,
OMalley Declares.

Prosperity of the fishing industry
Of the Nation, whose products no"
reach an annual value of about
$l09, 100000, is due in large measure
to scientific research work conducted
and the aid rendered them by Gov
ernment experts. Henry OMalleN'
commissioner of fisheres. declared in
his annual report yesterday. From the
standpoint of the Bureau of Fisheries
the most important development OF
the last fiscal year was the growing
appreciation of modern scientific re-
search in solution of fishery prob
lens. Mr. O'Malley said. This feeling.
he added. is shared by commercial
fishing interests and by many others
interested in fishing and enjoying the
use of lakes and streams for rccrea.

Fisheries of Maryland and Virginia
the report said. showed a decrease OF
! per cent in the number of persons
engaged: an increase of 81 per cent
in the amount Of capital invested
and a decrease of 81 per cent in the
quantity of products, but an increase
Of 9.5 per cent in the value of prod
ucts landed by the fishermen. Oys'
ters, with Il production of 6o,264,9 VIZ
pounds. valued at S6,02l SOC, were the
most important fishery product of the
two States. Other important products
were shad menhaden, crabs, croak-
ers. squetagues and CLAIMS.
Notagle progress was outlined by
the bureau in the conquest of fish
diseases which have seriously cur
tailed the output of the many fish
hatcheries scattered throughout the
country. The year 1926 broke all rec
ords in the fishing industry for the
amount Of fish caught. Vessel land
in.s at New England ports reached
more than $4,000 600 pounds. a ~

ULTIMATE DESTINY IF ALASKA RAILROAD
 |S INCORPORATION
THIS IS OPINION OF COLONEL J. G. STEESE, BASED ON SENTi-
 MENT IN WASHINGTON

The ultimate destiny of the Alaska
 Railroad is a corporation owned by
 the Federal government something af-
 ter the Panama Canal transportation system, carrying all of the powers of a private organization and subject to all rules and regulations applying to like enterprises privately owned, is the opinion of Col J. c. Steese as ex- pressed in reply to question of Mayor l.. V. Ray at the Council meeting Tues day evening"
 The question was put in connection with the matter of whether or not Seward was entitled to 10 cents per ton for commercial freight passing 1ver the government dock.
 Once the railroad is placed in, cor pora ton, said Colonel Steese, the rule, such as applies at all other docks occupying a similar position, will be applicable in Seward.
 The matter of incorporating the railroad has already been discussed in Washington, said Colonel Steese, those favoring the plan being Rep. Madden of Illinois.
 In fact at the time that Col. Lee H. Landis was sent to Alaska to manage the railroad the matter of incorpora- tion was under consideration, and but for Landis vacating the post pos sibly would have ensued.
 The question of Stewards rights in the matter has been discussed on sew eral occasions, in the hope that the tonnage rule would be applicable at the present time and retroactive for a number of years during which time many thousands of tons of local com mercial freight have passed over the dock.
 The failure to adjust the matter or settle it finally rested with Colonel Frederick Mears, who diverted the revenue to the railroad which has re- ceived it ever since.
