ERANCE has joined the
Il defaulters; not because
she is unable to pay, but
because she is unwilling to
pay. Belgium too has joined
the defaulters. Both insist
that unless Germany pays
the American loans to them,
the American taxpayers
must pay them, and that
their own taxpayers must
not be asked to pay any
thing at all. Not so long
ago American taxpayers
were digging into t h cir
pockets to get money to re-
habilitate these two coun-
tries. We have been "Shy-
locks" ever since.
Reading the speech h e.s
made in the French Cham
Der of Deputies setting forth
the reasons for the default
we are almost persuaded
that it would have been
much better if the American
international bankers had
not set themselves up as the
authoritative spokesmen of
America, though without
official status.
Some Of the smaller ma
tions will pay their debts;
others will default from
necessity. In the end we
shall bear the greater part
of the burden.
If the debtor nations sue
ceed IN their conspiracy OF
default we shall have $11,-
OOO,OOO,OOO added to our
debts y and the interest
charge alone at 31a per cent
will mean $3.50, 100000 a
year to be raised by the tax
alton of our people.
The Foreign Legion among
American publicists think
we can do this handsomely;
and that France cannot be
expected to pay the $19,-
100000 she owes this year.
All of which is as clear as
mud.

IROLLER STRIKE SPREADING
 TIES UP HUGE FLEET

Claiming they cannot operate with the salmon price at 5 cents a pound, trollers of the Pacific Northwest are refusing to fish and a strike which may throw 3,500 men out of work and tie up 2,500 boats is threatened.
 The Trolling Vessel Owners Association has not officially called a strike, but the men are acting independently and refus- ing to fish at the present price.
 The expenses of a troller range from $50 to $100 a trip and the vessels are losing money

Striking Fishermen

The gillnetters of Columbia River have abandoned all plans for a strike for better prices. They made every effort to ob- tain g cents per pound for king salmon and they have agreed to sell their catches to the can- ners on the open market. Tn other words they will sell to the canners who finance their sum- raer's operations.
 While no prices were quoteo it is believed that the best grades of salmon will bring ' cents per pound.
 King salmon may be purchas- cd in the butcher shops today at 10 cents per pound. What the prices on the trolling grounds will be has not been announced

Fish Exchange Seattle, Is Fought

Sebastian-Stuart Fish Company, New England Fish Company, San Juan Fishing & Packing Company, Edwin Ripley & Sons and Whiz Fish Products Conl- pany.
 Exchange Makes Answer
 "The Chase Fish Company has never been denied the right to purchase fish by any act of the Seattle Fish Exchange" said Henry J. Tillman, president of that body. "The Chase company is not member of the Exchange and cannot trade on the floor any more than I, a non-member, could buy or sell on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. l can buy and sell stock through members of the Stock Exchange and MT. Chase can buy fish through members of the Seattle Fish Exchange.
 "The Exchange members have no monopoly, There are several halibut schOOners in today. There is nothing to prevent Chase dealing with the captains of these vessels, just as many others do, and as he has done EefOre."
The Alaska fisherman., 1932-06-15

Federal Judge Jeremiah Net- erer recently signed an order re- quiring the Seattle Fish Ex- change to show cause why an Injunction sought by the Chase Fish Company should not be is- sued to enable the firm to pur- chase fish on the floor of the exchange, a right the suit de- clared has been denied it for the past year or more.
 Violations of the Sherman trust act and operation oi a monopoly in restraint of trade were charged against the ex- change and it's. eight member firms in the suit filed by Mai thew Stafford, counsel for the Chase Fish Company, Pier $. Henry J. Tillman, president of the exchange, denied tn 6 charges.
 The suit set forth that in 1851 the Seattle Fish Exchange hand- led all but 50,000 pounds of the lG,OOO,OOO pounds of fish shipped through the Port of Seattle, and that the Chase Fish Company was denied membership in the exchange and the right to pur- chase halibut and other sea foods.
 Cites Local Prices
 It further charges that this action of the exchange is per- versive of interstate commerce in fish and that the Exchange as now operated has virtually monopolized the fishing indus try. Recent prices of halibut on the Exchange, according to MT. Stafford, was 45s cents a pound for mediums" and 3 cents for chickens" as against IS to 1S cents a pound on the retail market.
 The complaint was filed under the Clayton act, giving individ- uals or private firms the right of ini,,nctiuo relief from violations
The Alaska fisherman., 1932-06-15

However those WnO 1OllOW the commercial end of the business believe that large reds will bring not more than 5 cents a pound and whites, 1 cent pound if and when they are bought. But it will go lower!
 With the price of meat, eggs and chicken at low maximum it is futile to attempt to hold the price to inflated values. To attempt to force up prices by a concerted strike would be wasted effort.
 The buyers are short of mon- ey and find it difficulty to se- cure loans for their operations. The consuming public can ab- sorb only so much fish at high CT prices. The greater mass of consumers are unable to pu:- chase halibut or salmon at 25- 30 and up to 50 cents a pound. They can purchase meats at 8 cents a pound and naturally they turn to the lower priced commodities.
 The outlook for the resident fisherman this year is certainly nothing to be optimistic over. IL is no better for the halibut fisherman or the seiner.
 Already the fishermen ars talking of living on the beaches putting up small gardens, fish, clans and meats. Following the law of elf-preservation they will have to follow such a pro- gram.

Chinese GENERAL
SLAIN BY JAPANESE
General Ma Chan-Shan, Bandit
chieftain, Trapped Be-
] tween Two Divisions

Hardin, Manchuria, Aug. 1.-(AP)
General Ma Cham Shan, unlettered
battler who was twice leader of the
northern Manchurian armies against
Japan, is dead, his body riddled by
Japanese bullets.
He died with his boots on, they
said, this former bandit whose name
blazed briefly across the first pages
OF newspapers Of the world last fall
when the Japanese invasion Of Man
churia began.
His body was found Wednesday in
a mud hut in the squalid little vii
lage Of Ankuchen, 40 miles north
east of Hailu, his staff officers were
piled in pools of blood around him,
his army, which once numbered TO-
900 men, wiped out.
Trapped between two japanese d.
visions which had pursued him since
the day he left the cabinet Of Henry
Pu-Yi at Changchun and went back
to the north to renew his fight
against the invaders, he and his
army fought CALAMITY to the last.
They stood with their backs
against a mountain side, retreat cut
off, and the Japanese pressed in un-
til they had annihilated the last man.
Several times during the four
months he was hunted General Ma
was reported killed or captured. But
he always escaped. Sometimes he
even resorted to the movie practice
of using several doubles" to hide
his real whereabouts.
But General Matsuki, the Japanese
commander, was certain this time.
He announced he was bringing the
body back here.

YOUR TEETH
Their Relation to Your
General Health

American Dental Association
ELIMINATING DENTAL BILLS

A wise man never runs to see his
dentist. His teeth are never in such
a condition that the pain makes him
run. Wisdom in dental health is
knowing the value of preventive
measures.
There is nothing involved about
preventive dental hygiene. 1t is SIM
plicity itself. It can be summed up
and symbolized by three words:
cleanliness, care, diet.
Cleanliness means that teeth should
be brushed carefully and regularly.
Ideally, this should be done after each
meal and before going to bed at night.
At the very least, teeth should have
a good cleaning once daily. Care
means that you should watch your
teeth for signs of decay, and give
them prompt attention.
Diet is considered by modern au-

thorities as one of the most impor-
tant factors in dental health. Some
put it ahead of cleanliness and care.
1.-The greatest menace to our teeth
at this time" says DR.. p. G. Puter-
baugh of Chicago, lis the fact that
most of us eat merely to satisfy the
caprices of our appetites and not with
any definite plan in our choice of
foods. A little intelligent effort in
the selection and proper chewing OF
food would do much toward the max
ing Of sturdy bodies"
Sturdy teeth are equally dependent
on wholesome food. Regardless of
how thoroughly they are cleaned and
cared for. teeth will decay If they do
not get proper nourishment, best OBJ
tanned from an abundance Of milk,
fresh fruits and vegetables, especially
of the leafy variety.
Two of the three things that 60 to
make up good preventive hygiene
program can be carried out by the
individual Cleanliness and following
a wholesome diet depend on you, not
your dentist. All that the dentist
does is check over your hygiene pro-
gram at regular intervals, and elimi-
nate decay before it makes serious in
roads. But the dentists job will be a
comparatively minor one If you do
your own job well and consistently.

Newspaper correspondents from
many lands are gathered here. An
international press conference of in
terest could be held and is being held,
informally. The writer met London
and an Australian sports writer at
the press headquarters, which was
beehive of activity. Japan has es-
tablished elaborate press offices Of its

has opened a Los Angeles office and
attached to it are 10 correspondents.
Even before the games have started,
their cable tolls reached 81 900 day.
It is reported that Japan has pur-
chased the training cottages set aside
for that nation at Olympic City and
will take them home as souvenirs.

swimmer. Is q center Of interest. ia
pan, however, is stalking its hopes of

age of athletes. Some are almost
middle age. But 1t Is youth that is
being served at these games and some
fine types are present, the flower Of

Cripples Are Barred
It may be story, but some writer's
here got excited over the reported
barring Of two cripples which America
wanted to enter. The committee which
passes upon qualifications declared
that for certain sports cripple has
an advantage over q normal athlete.
The reason Is that strength goes to
other muscles through abnormal de-
velopment and the cripples are un-
even competitors for their more nor
NAL contenders. In the instance
where two or three cripples were
barred rope climbing events were in
volyed. Foreign team managers de-
clared they had left cripples at home
who excelled In some line Of athletics
simply because their deformities gave
them advantages. Believe it or not.
Cottages at Olympic Village will be
auctioned off after the games. Hero
houses are expected to bring big fig
ures and help defray some Of the
shows overhead, which has been the
greatest In the history OF the Olym-
piads.
