AS the result of the meeting of the Fishing Vessels Association held in Seattle November 30, commit tee was appointed representing var ious interests to work out details for improvement of the halibut fishing industry, reports the Ket-
 chikan Chronicle.

 owners.
 Others were appointed represent ing the dealers and the Deep Sea
 Fishermen's Union
 These men were to act as a com
 mittee and submit working plan to the main organization for i'm
 proving the halibut fishing business of the north Pacific ocean. Linn
 itation of catches, consideration of
 closed areas, retail and wholesale
 marketing, and efforts to secure for
 the fishermen a minimum stabil- ized price will be matters to be con- sidered.
 It was decided also to ask the Canadian Fishing Vessels Owners Association to appoint a man for
 representation on the committee.

UNCLE SAM NOW LEADING
 GERMANY IN T0Y FIELD

German toys no longer flood the
 world markets at Christmas time
 as they did before the war. Germany's world monopoly in the manufacture of toys has been def initely broken, statistics showing that she now produces only one third of the worlds entire supply. The United States has taken Ger
 many's place as the greatest maker of toys, with Japan as formidable competitor.
 One of the reasons for the huge
 drop in Germany's production is seen in the high tariff walls which have been erected against foreign
 competition by those countries which made themselves independ- ent of Germany during the war by creating their own toy industries. Another is believed to be Germany's slowness to adapt her type of toys
 to the continually changing mar ket demands.

ton, Past and Present" says: Land
was donated for Rock Creek church
in 1720, and there was sufficient ground
around the church for the cemetery,
which has received the dead for over
200 years. Richard Queen also pro-
vided land for Roman Catholic chap
ell near Langdon, and burials were no
doubt made thereat in due time. These
two places are, therefore, the earliest
places of interment in the District of
Columbia. and the custom of providing
sites for graves was thus started, and
