NOn-Resident Fishing License Tax Is
 Declared Unlawful

The following excerpt from the Juneau Empire is the decision of the appellate court of San Francis co in regard to the territorial law which requires nonresident trollers to pay a special license fee of $250 for fishing in Alaska waters
 'We are not now concerned with the almost unlimited power possess ed by the several states over fish and game within their borders, nor are we particularly concerned with the legislative authority of terri tory when limited only by the right full subject of legislation clause us- ually found in Organic Acts. The question here is: Does the Territor- ial Act of 1929 deny citizens of the United States rights guaranteed to them by the laws of the United States and we are constrained to hold that it does"
 The court quotes from the pres ent Fisheries Act of Congress for Alaska, showing the authority giy- en the secretary of commerce in re- lation to administering the fisheries in Alaskan waters, and cites one provision as follows: "That no citi- zen of the United States shall be denied the right to take, prepare, cure or preserve fish or shellfish in any area of the waters of Alaska where fishing is permitted by the secretary of commerce"
 Tax is Confscatory
 The court then declared "the right so granted cannot be impair ed or destroyed by the legislative assembly of Alaska. If it can, the grant is an idle and empty one at best. Nor is the right thus con- ferred in any wise impaired by the last section of the act, which pro- vides in general terms that nothing herein shall abrogate or curtail the powers granted the territorial leg islature to impose taxes or licenses nor limit or curtail any power granted the territorial legislature by the Organic Act"

And Shirley paused, to remember the
feeling of his big arms about her, the
touch of his kisses.
Lord, what fun a woman could have
with Stan, running down to Honolulu"
she reflected. Del Monte for the tour
naments, or little bungalow at Pebble
Beach: he's always so stunning in any
rig, and that silly, easy line of talk of

any kind of party go!" aAnd not for the
first time she thought of herself with
Cuyler's money, and with Stan for her
husband. IF only he doesn't marry this
Yorke girl In the meantime" Shirley
fretted.
So the following day, at breakfast,
Shirley announced that she was not
going to drive into town with Stan, she
wanted to stay another night and really
rest. Stanley, who was needed for a
few hours at the office, was secretly re-
lieved to be spared the long tete-a-tete
of a drive into town. Joe Pond had
already gone.

That's lucky" said Stan, chained
where he was by the delicate little slip

"You know just how my marriage
came about, don't youP" Shirley asked
suddenly.
II can imagine It," Stanley nodded
with brief smile.
Think felt awful happy about 1t,
Stan?" Shirley asked, with an upward
sweep of brown eyes, Poor little me,
cried all night. But he was SO alone,
Stan, and remembered that he had
always been so good to me-always, in
his way" she said.
How much chance has hep" Stanley
asked, to say something.
But Shirley was not interested in
Cuyler.
ITO get well? Oh, none," she said,
careleSsly, dismissing him. HE may
live some time, though, poor fellow"
she added, as Stanley looked somewhat
scandalized "No, but tell me-" she
went on, were you angry at me, Stan?

When you heard of the wedding, I

'No, not a Bit" Stanley said honestly.
az wonder, Stan, If you didn't feel
that this was the square thing for me
to do? did, know. I thought, This
squares accounts with Cuyler; he can't
live long, poor fellow, and III be glad
all my life that didn't let him die

Shirley ended earnestly. Don't you feel
that-maybe-I did the right thing?"
I'm glad II you feel so, my dear" he
said. with his crooked grin.
"And some day you Will be good
friends with me again?"
IT hope I'm always that" Stan said
awkwardly.
"Tomorrows Saturday." Shirley sug-
gested. How about driving me in to
lunch at the Burlingame Club? Could
we do itP Awfully nice to watch some
tennis. I'm an old married woman now,
Stan, perfectly safe, you know"
Couldn't be DONE" he said briefly.

had removed the arresting foot. Now

SUSSEX GIRL ENDS LIFE
Elizabeth Rogers, Near Georgetown
Hooks Strap to Trigger of Gun

Returning home from brief
automobile trip Tuesday afternoon
of last week, Mrs Ottie Rogers,
living at Sand Hill, between Mil
ton and Georgetown, with several
of her small children, was horrifl-
ed to find her 18-year-old daught-
er, Elizabeth, dead on the floor of
the garage. The mother summon
ed help, but the girl had been dead
for some time when found. Ottie
Rogers, the father of the girl, is
employed on lightship. Tuesday
afternoon the mother and several
small children took their automo-
bile and went for a short trip,
Elizabeth was left at home. She
appeared all right at the time and
no cause can be assigned for her
act. According to those summon
ed by Mrs. Rogers when she found
her daughter on the floor of the
garage, the girl had taken her
fathers shotgun to the garage. 1t
is believed that she found an old
rein with a ring in the end. She
had placed the shotgun against her
left breast and hitchirg the ring
over the trigger of the gun, pulled
it. The entire load of shot entered
her heart. Coroner John Revel
was notified and deputized Sheriff
Bud Coy as deputy coroner to hold
an inquest. The coroner's jury
gave a verdict that the girl COM
mitted suicide by shooting herself
with the gun. The girl left moth
ing to indicate why she had taken
her life and the mother is unable
to give a reason.

For sixty years one of the great
est refiners of petroleum products,
The Atlantic Refining Company is
naturally best known in the states
of Pennsylvania and Delaware,
where. ever since the birth of the
automobile it has been overwhelm-
ingly the leader in the distribution
of gasoline. Yet large as are the
markets aft f.orded by these two
states, it was early recognized
that they still offered but limit

icies of an unusually well-equipped
and experienced organization. New
England presented G. favorable
field, and, after ten years of de-
velopment the domestic sales of
Atlantic products in Massachu-
setts. Rhode Island and Connecti-
cut have become second only to
those in Pennsylvania and Della
ware. Two years ago the Com
pany inaugurated a further expan-
sion program exceeding anything
previously undertaken. One by one
every remaining Atlantic coast
state from Massachusetts, to Flor
ida saw Atlantic pumps or service
stations springing into existence.
With a refinery located in the
South, at Brunswick, the states Of
Florida, Georgia and North Caro-
lima began being served with At
lantic Gasoline. Similar develop
ments were undertaken in New
York, New Jersey, Maryland, V1r-
vinia. West Virginia and South

les produce the Atlantic Gasoline

seized more than 100 cases of liq-
uor which had been landed by rum
runners last night. The liquor had
been put in a deserted oyster
house and was stored in bags, IL
quarts to the bag. 1t was valued
at approximately S80,0G0. Four
men captured with the haul gave
the following names and addresses
John Roach, Princess Anne, Md;
Ray Parks, Princess Anne, Md,

mac, and George Davis, Salisbury,

men were arrested on the state

"Spotters" sent down to check the
landing of the liquor, notify trucks
and arrange for transportation to

and Immediately notified Com
mander James A. Price, of the

in the marsh all night and closed
in on the cache after daybreak.
The liquor was found in the oys-
ter house and the men were run
down after a chase through the
marsh. No evidence of the rum
boat was found. The liquor all
bore foreign labels and is thought
to have come from Cuba. Author
tiles are still on the lookout for
