 Present regulations are declared to be inefficient. unintellgent, anI resulting in gross injustice and favoritism. Another plan took cognizance of the herring short- age: We recognize that con of herring is vital to the halibut and salmon industries, and we are opposed to any wantoI of the herring supply.

MANY / NIGHT FATHERS
 AT FRENCH RESORTS

PARIS, Aug. 23. (P)-Moonlight baths are becoming almost as popular as sunbaths at European resorts this summer. The only people who have objected are casino proprietors, who expect tourists to spend their time at the green tables after the sun has gone down and everyone has dined.
 At Deauville, Trouville and other re- sorts within easy distance of Paris, the casinos have rarely been crowded this summer on the few warm moonlit nights the weather man has provided. The beaches, on the other hand, for merly left to the waves at night, have been crowded with bathers, uklele players and singers.

BERLIN SW|NDLERS NOW
 USE CALLING CARDS

BERLIN. Aug. 23. (P)-stealing call ing cards from house doors has be- come favorite sport of German swindlers. Cards with high sounding titles are especially sought.
 In Germany persons are often in troduced merely by the fact that the ,1ntroducer gives the person to be in- troduced his calling card. A clever swindler, who obtains possession of the visiting card of Baron x, knowing that Baron X is good friend of Count can negotiate a touch" quite ef- fectively by using Baron Ks calling card as card of introduction to Count Y.
 Since calling card tackled to the wall next to bellbutton or affixed in lieu of name plates are often soiled, the sWindler often tries to steal calling cards by pretending to call on man with strong social connections. While the servant announces his name, the swindler helps himself to the calling cards in the tray of the ante-room.
