1t was this concluding paragraph
that Was interpreted as clearing the
way for the A. A. A. to proceed with

Tax Money Stopped.
With regard to the Treasury en-
ployes, however, McCari told Secre-
tary Morgenthau that they were paid
from processing taxes and that, con-
sequently. this money was no longer
available.
The personnel retrenchment policy
OF the A. A. A. was announced before
MeCarl's decision and it was said was
being outlined without any regard to
what his holding might be. A skele-
ton staff. 1t was said, is to be held
on for liquidation purposes, particu-
larry since It is anticipated that out
standing crop contracts will be hon.
ored by the Government, but much
less of force will be required for
such program than now Is en-
ployed.
The reduction is being made by
furloughs. rather than dismissals,
however, for If a new farm-relief pro-
gram is adopted, it Is proposed to re-
hire the A. A. A. employees. Mean
while, officials are making every effort
to find places for those who are about
TO lose out and are meeting with q
fair amount of success.
Hits Rental Section.
McCarfs decision strikes hardest at
employees engaged in the rental, bene-
mt and audit sections. This force now
totals about 3.100 at work in the old
Post Once Department Building.
They are engaged chiefly in distribu-
ton Of benefit checks to farmers un-
der contract to limit their crups. The
administration intends to pay the
balances On benefits promised for con.
tracts executed for 1895 programs.
While many employees win be retained
for this work, only . skeleton force
will be necessary, it was said.

The various commodity divisions
win be affected similarly, since there
are to be no new programs involving

Mckinley Tragedy Recalled.

Presidential guards have rule that
no one be permitted to approach the
President with a hand concealed.
This is precautionary outgrowth OF
the Mckinley experience. McKinley's
assailant did not have his hands in
his pockets, but he concealed q weapon
in the palm Of hand under heavy
bandages.

guished White House guests is car

The rule is not generally enforced
against guests known to or trusted by
the secret service men. They have
been known to quick-frisk in fun.
Dexterity Demonstrated.
It may be q coincidence. but the
Roosevelt-Wallace groups have SINH
larly gone through the A. A. A. de-
cision and decided to agree that it
was not loaded. That explains the
formation Of the new farm plan In
its present initial form It represents
only an idea. Changes may be ex-
pected in 1t daily until final agree
able form is worked out.
Ultimate details win determine
whether it Is constitutional or not,
but no one viii find out for sure until
after the next election.
Both Mr.. Roosevelt and TreasxTy
Secretary Morgenthan hare burn

high salaries paid to corporate

them to make that nep list public.
Considerable buck-passing occurred
backstage, however, before the names
were made available for publication.
Speaker Byrns and Chairman Dough-
ton pushed newsmen hack and forth
for two days before Byrns jockeyed
Doughton into announcing that the
list was . public document. The ex-

FISHY PROSPERITY
(Honolulu Star-Bulletin)

Fish are to Alaska what sugar is to its sister terri tory, Hawaii. When the catch of salmon, habut her ring cod founders and shrimps high, everybody prospers When fishing is poor Alaska's income drops millions.
 The salmon industry is by far the largest factor in Alaskas commerce. In 1884 when the fisheries pro- ducts exported valued at $4 0OO0 0OO canned sal man accounted for $37 ,000000 As an evidence of the indusrys importance to the territory, the Kechikan Sunday Chronicle in it's annual fisheries edition points out that the salmon business alone pays than 70 percent of the tax revenues in Alaska.
 At the peak of the fishing season more than ,000 persons and 5000 vessels of various kinds are employ ed Thousands of workers imported from the stat es necessarily so, since otherwise nearly half of the
 permanent population-men, women, children; Es- kmos, Indians, Whes-Would have to desert their re- gular occupations for few weeks of work in the fish, ing industry Population of the territorya ter drop ping $500 between 1916 and 1930 has again begun to increase half the loss has been regained and the total is in the neighborhood of 60,O00.
 The 1886 output has established new record for the Alaska salmon pack For the first time in history the pack ran over 8000 00O cases This means prosp erous year for the whole territory.
 Fishing it is true is not Alaskas sole dependence It has szable tourist industry we'll It is estimated nearly 30000 visitors will be entertained there this year. The fur business brings the territory steady income, amounting to Sl60000 900 in 1885 and provid ing livelihood for several thousand trappers Gold production totaled more than $15,0OO 900 in 1884
 Farming is still only minor factor in the ter rory's economic life. Nevertheless it is encouraging to note that the Maanuska colony planted there by the federal resettlemen division has come through it's fir st full growing season with flying coors The coonists have built homes community buildings and roads; they have cleared land and raSed bumper crops They have established markets for their produce and cate and they are already having difficulty in supplying the demand for fresh foods and meats. The malcontents have been weeded out and those who remain deter mined to make success of the venture.
 From all the evidence HaWaS sister territory seems to be doing very well for itself With it's fish, cries. its furs it's gold, platinum ivory, palladium and other products it holds valuable place in the nation al economy.

Noranda, Que. May 28.-(UP).- Five of the seven men who perished when the cabin plane in which they were returning from the isolated Chibougamau mining region crashed in the wilderness last Sunday were identified today.
 Two funeral planes bringing the bodies stopped last night at Amos where the Identification was made, The dead: Pilot w. II. Clarke, Leo Springer. Ottawa mining executive: George Millham, mechanic; Roy Hamilton and Lucien Degagne, both prospectors.
 Identity of the other two victims was not certain but authorities be- lieved their names were Joseph simon and a man named Car michael. Identification was difficult because the bodies had been mangled.
 The first pilot to sight the wreck age reported only six dead but pilots of the two funeral planes found a seventh body crushed under the plane which pancaked into a clump of trees and smashed to bits.
 Details of the crash probably will remain a mystery. It occurred Tn a wilderness where 1t was unlikely tha teven an Indian hunter or pros- pector saw 1t.
