FISHERMEN MAY CONTINUE WITH CORDOvA STRIKE.
Seiners and Gamers Fail to Reach Accord on
 Salmon Prices

Fishermen of the Cordova dis trict may not start operations for some time, according to advlces re- ceived here. Fishermen and can- ners have been unable to reacn an accord on prices, both parties claiming that their price is the best that they can possibly make.
 Cannerymen are offering 25 cents per fish for King salmon, and fish, ermen declare that on the basis of costs of fishing and average catch es for last year it would be pos sible for the average fisherman to make only about s35 for the season.
 The contenders are the Copper River and Prince William Sound Fishermen's Association on the one side, and the New England Fish Company, the Strand-Jensen Fish cries, the Pioneer Sea Foods Com- pany, the Pioneer CannerieS, In- corporated, the Shepard Poin t Packing Company, and the Gla- cier Sea Foods Company on the other side. *

HALIBUT PRICE
 IS ABOVE THAT OF LAST YEAR
Rate Is Expected to Rise Considerably by End
 of Fishing Season

In the excitement of the early end of the trollers' strike and the favorable prices being received by them, the halibut fishermen and their prices have been somewhat overlooked.
 They, too, are having a modicum of success in comparison with pre- vious years. In 1883, the beginning of the season found buyers paying 31a and 2 cents per pound for halibut, which price gradually rose until at the highest peak, fishermen were receiving 6 and cents.
 This year the season opened at last years closing prices, and all ready halibut are selling at 614 and Al with some catches going even higher. And according to E. E. Engstrom, local buyer, there is every reason to believe that prices will go much higher before the end of the season.
 Local sales of halibut this morn ing were as follows: the Dixon Capt. John Sutherland, 10,500 pounds to the San Juan Fish Con- pany at $50 and 4.25 cents per pound; and the Vivian, Capt ,, Charles Larsen, 10000 pounds tc the New England Fish Company at $50 and 425 cents per pound
 One boat sold salmon today, the [ Elfin, Capt. E. O. Swanson, 3,60t pounds to the Juneau Cold Stor- age Company at IA, 8, and T cents per pound.

was here Saturday for a, study of
the attitude of the Scottsboro de-
PENDANTS toward defense counsel.
After switching their cases num-

Labor Defense to Leibowitz, and
back again, the youth apparently
settled on the New York attorney,
but Kilby prison officials said last
week that they were back with
the lid again"
Leibowitz visited Clarence Nor.
ris and Haywood Patterson in the
lighthouse cells, and then called
on Thomas E. Knight, Jr., attorney
general, who prosecuted the case.
Leibowitz claimed that he repre-
sents all the youths with the ex-
ception of Patterson.

Dep riest Crowd Hints
At Funny Business"
In Election Figures


CHICAGO (ANP)-So scramble
ed and indecisive were the returns
from the recent election that the
friends of former Congressman Os-
car DePriest insist that the man
ner in which reports got out shows
something was funny.
The first returns, Tuesday night,
showed Arthur w. Mitchell, Demo-
crat winner, in the lead. These
returns came from white precincts
and were conceded to Mr.. Mitchell.
When colored precincts started re-
porting, the Mitchell lead began TO
melt. Early Wedne sday DePriest
was twent-six votes behind with
three precincts out
At noon, he was declared lead
ing with sixty-one votes. At 8 p.
M, the dailies announced DePriest
was the winner. Then there was
a sudden switch, the report being
that Mitchell was in the lead by
$3.50 votes.
Final reports show that William
e. King, Republican, won the state
Senate post by 1927 votes over
Bryant A. Hammond, Democratic
candidate, whose friends also state
there is something funny.
The impartial observer, aware
of Democratic control of the cleo
ton machinery and everything else
in the city and county, is forced to
admit that almost anything is pos
sible.

FAMOUS CASE IN
SUPREME COURT
FOR SECOND TIME
CONTINUED from Page one)


Tense counsel was issued, recently.
following a dispute between Mr..
Leibowitz and the LID.
In the petition filed here satur-
day, Norris asks the Supreme
Court to issue writ of certiorari
to review the judgment of the Ala
bama court affirming his convict
ion. II Is understood that Walter
H. Pollalx and Mr.. Fraenlel, who
filed the brief, viii also file this
week a petition asking for a re-
view of the conviction of Patter-
son.
In the brief In support of the pc
tition for certiorari, counsel for
Norris contend:
/. The indictment of a member
Of a colored race and his convic-
ton by juries from which colored
persons are Systematically exclud-
ed is a denial of the equal protec-
ton of the law.
2. The court denied Norris's con-
stitutional rights in refusing to
quash the indic.Inent by the grand
jury in Jackson County, where CO.
lored persons had for years been
excluded from jury service.
3. The court denied Norris's con-
stitutional rights in refusing to
permit him full opportunity to
prove that colored persons were
systematically excluded.
1t is pointed out that jackson
County in 1880 had a male popu-
lation over 81 years Of age of 1901,
of which 1866 were colored.
1t is c6ntended that 1t was estab-
lished and uncontradicted that
there was actual exclusion, that
white men served on juries, and
that colored persons did not and
had not for upwards of fifty years.
The LID has announced the set
ting aside of the week from Dec
en- Der 1 to December as Scots
boro Week, during which nation
wide protests in connection with
the cases of the Scottsboro boys
and Angelo Herndon will be con-
Quoted.
