There is no such concentra- tion of wolves and coyotes in Alaska as in some of the West ern states, declares Warden Gubser predatory animal hunt CT, to a Fairbanks reporter. There has been a steady drift of both wolves and coyotes to sections heretofore free from their presence. The entire Alaska mainland is infested, firm Point Barrow to Hyder. The situation is not so serious as it might be, as rabbits are again increasing rapidly and will be plentiful for the next few years. The country about Eagle is described as a para disc for wolves and many trap pers make good living hunt ing them.

Copious rains in the Iditarod district are causing much jub- ilation among the miners, as it assists them in their sluicing operations. The rains were es- pecially welcome at Flat, where the sluices have been virtually dry during the greater part of the season with mining operations limited accordingly. Everyone is working now at Flat and on nearby streams, and the gold output is piling up.

BUYING OF METALS
QUIET DURING WEEK
Steel Prices Hold Fairly Steady,
but Copper Quotations
Are Easier.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 24-Conserva-
tism on the part of buyers appeared to
be the principal feature to the steel
market operations the past week.
There was some gain in the placing of
new business, but as a general rule
the reports indicated that following
the inventory takings, which were said
to reveal rather low stocks in quite a
few instances, the buying of products
for many lines of industry has not been
up to expectations. Prices held very
we'll virtually through the list. Pig
iron was steady and better demand
for foundry iron was noted following
Improvement in demand for machine
tools
Copper developed an easier tendency
when foreign buying, which had been
absorbing custom smelters' output, be-
came less active late in the week.
This development, combined with alb
sence of domestic buying interest was
followed by the appearance of resale
offerings at ga cents in the domestic
market, although producers and smelters
were generally quoting 10 cents for
electrolytic delivered in the Connecticut
Valley Buying interest is said to be
limited owing to the general quietnesS
of demand for finished products with
the exception of the recent improve
ment in the automotive industry.
Tin price fluctuations were cratic
and the tone was easier toward the
end of the week. Consumers were said
to have refused to follow the steadier
trend earlier in the week. Much con-
fusion continued to exist as regards
the proposal to curtail world production
Lead was quiet and without any
further miro CHANGE business
largely confined to small quantities for
prompt shipment
Zinc was steady, but the general
market position was dull. Producers
were reported to be waiting a more
active interest from consumers.
The undertone to antimony was
somewhat unsettled at the end of the
period with lower offerings reported
from China.

INCREASE IN TARIFF
RATES Is SUGGESTED
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Samuel r. McKelvie. grain member
Of the Federal Farm Board, favors an
increase Of so per cent in agricultural
tariff rates for one year rather than
an embargo on imports to relieve ex-
asting conditions.
His views were incorporated today
in a letter to Chairman Hawley of the
House Ways and Means Committee.
McKelvie declared he believed the
recent statement by Chairman Legge
on an embargo was merely to call the
attention to the seriousness of the stu
alton arising out of imports" He
added the board die not want to
recommend such drastic method.
However, he said, st would say yes
on an embargo if some other way can
not be obtained"
Although imports being received now
are less than in the past, he said they
apparently had more serious effect.
His proposal for an increase would
be general and not directed at any par
ticular commodity. but he said that
beans, corn and wheat were NEST seri-
ously involved.
McKelvie said he believed an in
creased tariff could be put through in
80 days, but that If the Move should
not be successful he would not favor
an extra session to increase the agri-
cultural rates.

SPRING BUSINESS RISE

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 24.-Business
prospects are discussed as follows in the
current issue of the Financial World.
THE Spring rise In business activity
is now getting under way, and may be
expected to carry further during the
coming months. Movement Of manu-
featured and miscellaneous freight dur
ing the latest week showed gain OF
is per cent over the figures for the
preceding week, which compares with
gains of but 10 per cent at this time
in both 1880 and 1929. Total daily
average of contracts awarded for new
construction last week receded slightly,
although residential projects showed
a gain. Total volume Is now running
about per cent below the rate OF last
December, but an upturn should soon
be diScernible on seasonal basis"

policy in some time. This leaves the
individual investor as potential factor
in making this department Of the mar
ket more active and stronger. He has
been even less willing to buy bonds In
the last two years than have the banks.
Foreign issues have been irregular
through the week, with some improve
ment in several of the South Amer
and German issues and tendency still
to discriminate between first grade and
the inferior credits. The declaration
made by the leaders Of the four Euro
pean powers regarding the peace Of
Europe ought to quiet some of the
alarms that have been held by holders
Of dollar issues and at the same time
restore confidence among bankers who
have been lending abroad for the past
i've years and have within the last few
months completely withdrawn their
banking support to their former clients.

YEAR WAS FAVORABLE
IN PICTURE BUSINESS

During the first half of 1880 opera
tons of the motion picture companies
resulted in the highest profits for any
similar period in the history of the
industry" says the Brookmire Economic
Service. with the beginning of the
third quarter, reverseS were met.
Weather was unreasonable, general
business conditions were going from
bad TO worse and the momentum of
the advent of the "tallSie" was losing
its force To these factors might also
be added the decline in quality of
productions.
While complete results of opera ions
for 1880 are not yet known, the year as
whole was more than satisfactory"

CURB SHARES DIP
IN PROFIT TAKING
Pressure in Late Trading
Turns Price Movement.
Changes Narrow.
BY JOHN L. COOLEY.


! NEW YORK, January 24.-The curb
market had trouble extending its rally
eoday and considerable irregularity
came into the price movement.
Profit taking in the utilities DOM
mated the trend in that group and
nncst of the leaders closed nominally
lower. Selling in the first hour had
little effect and prices recovered, but
pressure was applied more persistently
In the late trading. Electric Bond g.
Share lost a point net and there were
fractional recessions in United Gas,
United Light A, American Superpower
and others
Strength of the motor shares on the
big board was reflected in renewed de-
Enand for Ford CT England which
reached q new high for the rally, al
though the net gain was small. In
dustrials as group did well, and
numerous specislities also firmed. Deere,
Newmont Mining and Mead johnson
were up l to 2.
Oils we're inactive. but inclined
lower. Standard of Indiana and Cities
Service sagged.

gradually in Canada, but as yet the
indices do not display an upward trend,

LOWER WAGE HELD
|. NO HELP TO TRADE
Moody's Says High Salaries
Are Not Chief Reasons
for Low Profits.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, january "A
thorough readjustment of wages and
rents before the current depression has
ruin its course is neither possible nor
essential, in the opinion of Moody's
Investors Service, which declares that,
although wages have been scaled down
In most depressionS, the decreases in
recent times have been much less than
the lower cost Of living permitted.
Living costs are almost invariably
extremely slow in following wholesale
prices down." the analysis states. This
Is due partly to the slower relative move
ment Of finished goods prices, especially
at retail, and partly to such inflexible
items as rents.
Advance in Rents.
Rents have climbed nearly steadily
over the past half century, in spite Of
all depressions Except that Of 1876-7e).
The FIRST real decline in rents, which
began in 1925, was irrespective of the
business cycle and was rather the re-
suit of excess building.
Wages have long term rising ten
dency, as compensation for more pro-
ductive effort per man and machine.
The relative stability of wage scales is
not the chief reason for lower profits
In expressions, winch are aScr1baDle 70
variety of other causes, including
changes in human psychology affecting
prices and demand
Perhaps the best proof that wages
are not the whole crllx of the problem
may be found In their behavior after
recovery sets In. They usually continue
to fall for several months
Comparatively little mention has been
made OF the salary problem, in discus.
sions Of general wage cuts, the serv-
ice points out. THE rising trend of
salaries is even sharper than that OF
wages over longer period and this q
even more keenly felt in depressionS,"
Moody's says yet any suggestion for
their reduction would be vigorously OPP
posed on the ground that It would de-
lay recovery.
Comparison Given.
Efforts Of salaried employees to main
tain current salary levels by increasing
their own efficiency may act as power
full impetus toward recovery Of busi-
ness"

son between declines in wages and In
cost Of living during various major de-
pressions in the United States:

| dart down an alley, or retrace his steps
Occasionally, when escape was i'm

This particular villain did not enjoy

comrades
NO. his was a sort of solitary enjoy
! ment, made all the more keen to him,
evidently, because he usually INDUCED

Then his crooked mouth would CLEAN

that the victim beg for an intangible
and doubtful mercy.
~ IA
DO the children of today have their
| DULLES?
No doubt they do but they must take
surely no youth Of this age knew
such an unnecessarily despicable fell
| low as the Terror.
So the observer thought as he stood
| on the sidewalk, looking down the
street at the disappearing back of the
same slouching, shambling figure, the
same serge suit, and-could it be?-
/ the lQenblCdl OeTDy ildb.
Time, which should have put the
Terror behind bars, had sat lightly
on his shoulders. His shamble was
every whit as lively as ever and his
SLOUGH no slouchier.
He had gone by without recognition
In his eyes, because his former victim
was grown out Of all semblance to
| the child of old.
The observer wondered to himself
what the former bully would have done
If he had walked up to him, tapped
him on the shoulder and addressed
him in this wise:
| You don't remember me, Ell?
"Well, I'm the kid you used to bully.
! One Of the kids. no doubt.
Remember how you would grab me
by the arm as went by and twist my
arm behind my back and pull my fin
| gers backward?
"And how you enjoyed telling me to
beg although you never said what
! for.
well, prepare to meet your DOOM"
Alas! when the proper reply is not
made at the proper time the chance
has forever gone by.
Today the Terror is q terror no
longer. but a little old man who man.
| ages % look younger IMAM ne is.
He vanishes from sight around the
corner, and the observer starts from his
dreams of bygone Gays. Childhood Is
not quite as enhancing as many an
older person claims it to be.
The sorrows of youth are very real,
deeper perhaps in some ways than the
real woes of later years.
Childhood exaggerates, but especially
its sorrows. There are no NlDrries so
deep as those of children, and if they
vanish quickly they are built up again
with even more speed.
The happiest childhood, even, is
clouded round with doubts all the
deeper because built on a very solid
inexperience. The great trouble with
| youth comes from knowing too many
words without the knowledge which lies
behind those words.
Words, words, wordsl Childhood,
middle age and old age are In thrall to
them. He is happiest. whether a child
or an older person, who masters words
and does not let them master him. This
means not the knowledge of definitions
| but of images. The only antidote to
some words is experience.
