Stray Thoughts On Husbands
In India, most girls have
their husbands picked out for
them before they are born-a
wonderful conservation of time,
effort, worry and anxiety!
Husbands are like climate
all a matter of taste and of
which kind agrees with you
best.
Like good regulations they
are hard to win, and easily
lost!
There are so many varieties:
golf husbands, radio husbands,

AS Silent AS
The Sphinx

And so the stock market
is in politics up to its ears;
put a pin in that. Not
every one on the stock mar
ket-which puts it UP to the
head of the New York Stock
Exchange to administer a
proper rebuke, and up to
the Hoover committee to
apologize to the Literary
Digest.
AL Smith s Boston speech
was a devastating analysis
of the incompetence and
the blunders and misrepre-
sentations Of the Hoover
regime. The speaker was
in fine fettle and in his
best form.
Apropos Of Mr.. Hoover's
self-hero tale of how he
balanced the budget, soli-
tary and alone, Mr.. Smith
calls attention to the policy
of the Administration which,
like Micawber, has always
been waiting for something
to turn up.
In 1880, when the Treas
ury was facing a deficit
of billion, the Administra-
tion was silent as the sphinx
waiting for something to
turn up. 1t proposed no
new taxes; it effected no
economies. Because" as
Smith says, "the Admins
tration was living in the
hope that things would rec
tify themselves" " May we
suggest another reason?-
the election of 1880 was in
the offing.
Then came the absolute
necessity and the killing
tax bill imposed at a time
when business could least
afford it and when it was
certain to retard recovery.
Deceit again!

I WO SALVAGE SHIPS PREP ARE

Italian Craft Now at Scene of French Submar-
 inc Disaster
DIVERS TO BE SENT
 DOWN WITH HOOKS
Efforts to Be Made to As certain if Any of 66
 Men Are Alive

CHERBOURG, France, July g. The Italian salvage ships Artiglio and Rosto have arrived prepared to attempt to raise the French submarine Promethee which took a sudden dive while on a surface trial trip last Thursday afternoon.
 It is planned to attempt to raise the submarine at low tide.
 Divers will be sent down to the craft which is lying in 245 feet of water The divers plan to hook chains and air lines to the sunken craft to learn whether any of the 66 men and officers aboard are still alive.
 Little hope is held out for the imprisoned men. It is believed the craft will be found in crum- bled condition as it was built to withstand only pressure of wa ter at a depth of 160 feet.
 It is believed the builkheads have been crushed, the gas released and other equipment, especially the batteries, have been overturned as the Promethee dove stern first.
 A heavy current and rough wa ter will make the salvage attempts difficult.

Mattern and Griffin Pack ing World Flight Plane

MOSCOW, July 9.-Jimmy Mat tern and Bennett Griffin, who at- tempted a flight to lower the Post-Gatty round-the-world record and who came down half way be- tween Berlin and Moscow, at Bor- isov, mistaking the lights of that town for Moscow, in their first telephone conversation from Bor- Isov, told the Associated Press they would come here and then make a decision whether they would continue the flight or re- turn to the United States by way of Europe.
 Are Not Hurt
 The two fliers, in their first con- tact over the telephone since the wreck, told the Associated Press neither were hurt, except few scratches but the plane overturned when the wheels hit the peat bog; otherwise it would have not been damaged.
 Packing Plane
 They said they were packing the plane and would ship it to Moscow where a survey would be made as to the extent of the dam ages. They are disassembling the plane and said they were being treated fine by the Russian avia- ton officials sent to aid them.

RED FISH PACK |. IN BRISTOL BAY
 WILL BE HEAVY
Runs of Fish Continue Good -P a kers M ay Fill
 Cans Before July 26

A heavy red salmon pack in Bristol Bay this season is practical ly assured, according to advices received today by Henry O'Malley, Commissioner of Fisheries, in tele- gram from Agent Dennis Vim. Runs in that section continue good.
 If they are maintained at the rate which started ten days ago and is still unchecked, all of the packers in the district will have every can filled before the end of the season, MT. Vim said. Up to July 2, the pack for the district was in excess of 100000 cases.
 The Commissioner is gratified with the showing made in the re- zion, which was not up to the normal five years ago, the preced- ing cycle year. At that time the run was abnormally light on the south side, and fishing was sus- pended two weeks before the date set in the original regulations. AL though there was a normal return of fish on the Nushagak side, an influx of boats from the south side endangered the escapement and Commissioner O'Malley closed that down, also.
 These prompt measures to pro- tect the spawning areas are cred tied with having served their pur- pose, by making possible the pres ent good runs throughout the bay section. The season in that dis trict will close on July 26. No predictions on the final pack have yet been made.
 Commissioner OMalley will end his present visit to Juneau tonight or Sunday. He will leave at once for Prince William Sound, Cook Inlet, Kodiak and Alaska Peninsula points. He plans to return here in about ten days or two weeks and remain in Southeast Alaska until about the middle of August.

WAR DEBT SITUATION

WASHINGTON, July g. = The State Department in a statement late today, said there was no change in the attitude of the Am erican Government on the question of war debts from the views out lined by President Hoover last June when he said he does not approve | of further cancellation but further adjustments may be necessary.
 The statement followed the Lau- same reparations agreement and agitation among European and Brit fish newspapers that the United States make adjustments or cancel the debts.
 To Hear Appeals
 The State Department officials late yesterday said that the United States stands ready to hear appeals of European Powers for a reduc- tion of eleven billion dollars they owe this country in loans during and immediately after the World War.
 Since Europe has finally agreed at Lausanne to cut Germanys re- parations down to $750000,00 State Department officials said the Unit ed States is willing to consider individual proposals and revision of debts from Is nations who owe this country.
 No Promises
 No promises to revise or cancel debts have been made by the Unit ed States but the Government has repeatedly stated in recent months that a rehearing would be granted European debtors individually after they agree among themselves to settle reparations.
