o,MALLEY ON FISHERIES INDUSTRY.

w w. Jermane Washington correspondent and associate editor of the Seattle Times pays just trb ute to Henry OMaley United States Commissioner of Fisheries, when he says MT. O'Malley is one oi the counry's greatest fisheries experts MT. Jer- mane continued an interesting article on MT. OMal ley by quoting statement of the latter regarding the fisheries of the country in general and Alaska r particular as follows:
 United States fisheries at the present time are giving employment to 125,000 men, and at least an equally large number of per sons engaged in the manufacture ana merchandising of fishery products. The an- nual catch exceeds five billion pounds, for which the fishermen receive 1l6 million dol lars Last year the output of packaged and frozen fish, canned fish, byproducts, imports and exports greatly increased over the pre- ceding year.
 The fur seal herd on the Pribiofs has been built up until it exceeds a million animals For the first time in forty years the killing of surplus males is exceeding 10000 year The industry is making good profit for the government, and seal skins are becoming relatively plentiful in the United States.
 While the salmon catch in Alaska is smaller than it was last year, I am satisfied that satisfactory progress is being made in saving this great fishery from exhaustion. The bureaus fish cultural service broke all records last year, it's output exceeding seven and one-haf billion, increase of half billion over the previous year.
 MT. Omalley pointed out that satisfactory prog ress is being made in carrying out the five-yeai construction and maintenance program adopted by Congress in 1929 There always is difficulty how ever in hiring scientists and having them function fully without experience of several years On this point he says:
 Tt is very rarely possible to secure biologist or technologist capable of immedi- ately carrying on independent research on satisfactory basis Frequently these men must have several years of training before they become really productive. Such men cannot De secured on the basis of temporary em- ployment Congress has now recognized that fact by providing that certain parts of our appropriation should be for personal serv- ice The fisheries bureau is ever anxious that the money turned over to it by Congress be spent in such way as to yield the greatest = possible return"

CHARITY IS NOT THE REMEDY.

Lower tariffs would do more than war debt cancellations improve the business situation in the world and be of far greater lasting benefit to all the countries including the United States. It would be absurd to give billions outright to European na- tons and keep tariff walls between countries so high that Europeans would have to continue to be ob- ects of charity With freer trade the various debtor countries would be able to pay their just debts in the course of time and in the meantime it would permit the industries and commercial interests in this country to do business world basis.

The Washington times., 1931-12-24

Not many of us can go to
Lake Placid or Montreal for
winter sports, but all of us can
enjoy a certain amount of fun
and exercise right here in Wash
ington, if we have a bit of snow
and ice. There is nearly always
some coasting, a little skating,
and snowballing and tramping
in the woods are free for all.
Washington has the added ad-
vantage of nearby country, so
many of us can get into Mary
land or Virginia at the first
furry of snow. to have a really
vigorous day or so. And so it
is worth while to get winter
sports costume, as styles change
little, and the same suit will do
year after year.
Trousers Popular
The usual costume for playing
in the snow, or for skating is a
combination of Norwegian trous-
erS with warm sweater and
jacket. Some people substitute
riding trousers if they have
them, and some prefer a warm
wool skirt. The girl on the right
of the picture has on Norwegian
trousers, loose all the way down,
and tucked into sturdy boots.
The other girl wears riding
trousers with wool socks, and
higher boots laced up. Both
pairs of trousers are in a plain
dark color, and the costumes get
their color accent in other ways.
COlorful Scarfs
A sweater is almost an essen
tial, even if you do want to wear
a leather jacket, or another
warmer sweater over it. It's
smart to have sweater, mitten
and cap to match, or you can
get sets of cap, scarf and nit
tens to match. Either way, the
knitted things are usually in
stripes Of bold colors, and sup
ply the splash for the whole out
fit, as trousers, jackets and boots
are nearly always dark. The
stores in town have separate
trousers for sale, and suede or

leather jackets if you do not
want to buy whole suit, though
suits of trousers and jacket in
windbreaker style are priced as
low as SIS. There are attractive
coats made of striped wool in
Indian blanket effect that are
gay and colorful, too. A simple
slip-on sweater is all you need
underneath, and if you want, you
can wear discarded street or
sports sweater, if it is warm
enough.
