JEWELRY OF CAR
JUST MELTED AWAY
Brooklyn Woman Discovers
She Was Gypped.

New York-When the Russian
crown jewels melted and ran down
the side of her kitchen radiator Mrs.
Rebecca Barasch of 500 Crown street,
Brooklyn, knew that she had been
gypped.
She was further convinced when the
few jewels which did not melt proved
to be poor grade of glass, and Ms 4
result she spent three days in the
rogues' gallery at police headquarters.
In the end she succeeded in identify
ing three men from whom she had
bought the treasure Of the late Ro-
manoff for 5000, and all three we're ar
rested and locked up at Brooklyn po-
lice headquarters on charges of grand
larceny.
They said they were Stefano Anillo,
thirty-four years old; Frank Russo,
thirty-six, and Emanuel Fallacana,
thirty. On being questioned regarding
the jewel transaction all three denied
they were in any way connected with
it. Mrs, Baraseh, however, is positive
in her Identification, and the police
believe that the men have been doing
big business In the name of the late
car during the last few months.
Spoke In Russian.
According to Mrs. Barasch two of
them, Anlllo and Fallaccano, met her
at the corner of New York avenue and
Union street, May %, and started
talking In Russian. She is sixty.five
years old and the sound of her native
tongue was pleasant to hear.
The two told her they were refugees
from the Soviet regime and that they
were anxious to find the local Rus
sian colony.
"You see," said one, 1--WE stole the
cars crown jewels. They are worth
fabulous fortune and we must either
sell them or give them to somebody
to keep for u.s.
Mrs Barasch had heard about the
crown jewels being sold on the Rue
de Ia Palx, but apparently forgot
about It. She asked to see them, and
was shown a pocketful of cleaning,
Nystal diamonds. They almost took
her breath away but she asked:
'How can tell that they are
reul?"
Drew Out 900.
"Why we will take you around to
any jewelry store offered one OF the
refugees, and they started ont. As
they were about to enter one, Russo,
It ls alleged, stepped from the door
way. He was identified as jeweler
and appraised the pocket Of diamonds
as being authentic, and worth n for
tune.
In the end Mrs. Barasch took all
three men TO her bank. She drew out
every cent that she had. 5000, and
apologized for not having more.
Then she took the Romanoff for
tune home In her handkerchief and
laid II out on the radiator while she
prepared dinner There w@ro 20 big
diamonds In all. Mrs. Barnsch thought
herself as wealthy as Car Nicholas
was, hut when half way through peel
Ing the potatoes she happened to cast
a glance at her treasure.
Only eight remained. The others
were a puddle Of paste on the floor
and these eight she later found to be

In arresting the three men, the de-
tectives stated that they watched
their house for three days and that
reports Of their having sold crown

The Alaska fisherman., 1929-10-15

such vessels as were able to catch full trip in three or four days and had sufficient speed, could do so. Instead of coming via Ketchikan they would make the perilous 7-day journey across the Gulf of Alaska. The manner in which these large vessels from the northern banks affect the Seattle prices is givel by the following illustration:
 On October IS, 1923, five local Seattle vessels sold 32,700 pounds of halibut for prices ranging from 1912 to 25 cents for nledi- un1 halibut or halibut from 10 to 80 pounds and from 13 to Is cents for chicken and large hali- but or halibut under 10 and over 80 pounds. From 25 to 30 per cent of the fish is chicken and large halibut. On the next day, the PIONEER, 8 vessel from the northern banks marketed 37,000 bounds, and seven Seattle boats marketed 3o,COO. Because of the presence of the fish from the northern banks, the price drop ped to 1872 to 20 cents for medi- ums and 12 to 16 cents for the other grades, or an average drop of 3 cents per pound on the first grade and one and one-half cent Ter pound on the second. On the 2Cth, 3O,O00 pounds more of northern fish was offered with 42,C00 pounds of local, which re- ceived 15 to 1872 cents and Is to 15 cents, or another drop of 3 cents on the mediums. This is a situation which occurs every time a vessel from the northern banks lands fish in Seattle. With an increase in landings that would result following the enact- ment of the proposed law, the 125 Seattle vessels would be fore ed out of business. These yes sels represent an investment of S625,O00, and provide a living for 625 men. The benefit derived by Seattle by the arrival of these few vessels from the north

be purchased in Prince Rupert as the duty on lines is prohibit i've.
 It is conceivable that under the operation of the proposed law Ketchikan will profit slight " but not in a measure as would warrant the hazard to this in- dustry. We are American citi- i:ens and would therefore prefer to discharge our fish at an Am crican port, and to do so when it is practicable. We cannot profit ably land all our fish in Ketchi- kan, and in order to remain in business we must land olr catch es Wherever they can be lan.led at a profit. Prince Rupert, by reason of it's position as term mus of a railroad, offers Us a market that can not be equoled elsewhere. The difference rric- es paid in Prince Rupert and keCci1ikan represents our profit. This is shown by the following example:
 On October 12, 1928, the schooner FOREMOST sold 33,- 900 pounds in Prince Rupert for 13 cents and 6 cents. On the following day, the day when the FOREMOST would have been in Prince Rupert had she chosen, the YAIzUTAT sold 36,000 pounds for 148 cents and cents. By choosing to sell in Ketchikan the owners and crew of the FORE- MOST lost $1 200, which sum re- presents the difference ketween the price paid in Ketchikan and Prince Rupert There are times when Ketchikan buyers refuse to even make a bid. Can anyone wonder that fishermen market their catches in Prince Rupert in preference to Ketchikan?
 We appeal to you not to de- stroy the halibut industry. The industry which we represent consists of 250 vessels, valued at over one and one-half million dollars, and gives employment
The Alaska fisherman., 1929-10-15
sted entirely out of Seattle

An increase in the cost of marketing fish such as this pro- posed law would cause would lay open our industry to competition of foreign fish. Our principal competitor at the present time is Canada. During the past year approximately 80 Canadian ves- sels landed 9,524,728 pounds of ualibut in Prince Rupert. These vessels are small, and fish on c]ose-in banks, and as a result are able to operate more che9D- ly than the American vessels. Their output is held in check by 'llo 1act that their market is the same as ours and that they are compelled to pay a 2-cent duty. A change in the method of marketing American h a libut would cause a large influx of this fish.
 The last two years have seen the entry of Japan into the froz- cn-fSh market in the United States. The Japanese have un- limited banks close to their country and are able to land frozen halibut in the United States as cheap, if not cheaper, than can Americans. A change in present marketing conditions would handicap us greatly in competition with both the Jap anese and Canadians.
 In connection with this con- trovcrsy we would like to submit a few facts for your considera- ton. It has been mentioned that the Canadians have hold on the halibut industry. This is entirely erroneous. In the first place American buye rs-New England Fish Co.,, Booth Fisher ies Co.,, and San Juan Fishing & Packing Co.,, all large Ameri- can buyers, have branches at Prince Rupert, and purchase the largest portion of fish landed there by American fishermen. In the second place the money re- ceived for fish sold is not spent

 Something's on your bean, old dear. Go on, roll it off"
 Lillian leaned forward, the back of her right hand tapping the palm of her left, a sure indication to me that she was tremendously interest ed in the proposition she was out lining.
 Don't you think it would be a good thing to have Georges and Olna, with possibly Mary and Noel. as well, out in the open when they first get word that Georges is only one removed from the throne. If you could see it in the paper, for in stance, and read the dispatch aloud"

 Which we just have" Lillian in terrupted tartly.

Then I'll know whether or not it's been made pub lie. Well, there's one thing certain When this news gets out, it ought la bring those rats out into the open"
 But I found myself less concern ed with even this terrifying possibil- ity than with the query as to what the reaction of our young royal ! guests would be to this momentous news.

YOUR HEALTH
BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Medical Association and of lily

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN | (Editor Journal of the American | Medical Association and of lily ! gcia, the Health MagaZine) The German physician Lorentz | has attempted to study the best | type of body build for the playing of tennis. The wide variety of body | build existing among members of the Davis cup teams and even among women players indicates that championship ability does not rest with any particular type of l figure.
 1 The French players. who appar entity lead the world today and the | tiny Japanese, have an ability that | is almost parallel. An occasional player of championship tennis is exceedingly tall; very few are eN- ceedingly heavy in weight In gen. eral. it may be said that persons of average body height and weight are best qualified for this game. On the other hand. excessive fat is distinctly not an asset Above everything else. tennis demands speed and quick motion. Excess fat is bound to interfere with such activity.
 The game also places a consider able demand on the heart and on | the respiration. It is therefore ad- visable to make sure that these or gans are in good condition before serious tennis playing is undertaken. i Gradual training for champion ship in any sport is necessary. One | begins by light exercises, eymnas- tics, running, rope skipping and similar forms of activity and slowly works up the respiration and the heart. and even the gastro-intostinal tract to undergo more serious de- i mandS.
 Experts in training recommend massage and thorough rub downs after each morning or afternoon activity and steady exercise in order to permit the muscles to relax properly and to avoid the stiffness which is bound to occur in the un- trained athlete after severe eXcrtion The best trainers recommend gym nastics each morning and evening in order to loosen the muscles and aid their fleXibility and prompt re- sponse.
 Tennis is primarily summer sport It is associated with much precipitation and loss Of weight with ovcrheating and the possibility Of sun stroke. All of these factors must be borne in mind by the tennis | player.
 Many tennis players go stale in 1 the winter and have to undertake the summer sport very gradually. In the winter hockey or basketball are two forms of sport by which tennis players may keep themselves in good condition.
