Now there are spots and spots in
Florida where the silver king can be

up the coast, where the waters of the
Miakka and Peace Rivers meet the

the State, but it's Spring and Summer

thumb back to the factory for repairs,
for it won't do you much good for a
few days, until the blister is replaced
by new pink skin. But your thumb
won't have any effect on the tarp.
You could put your foot on the line
and it wouldn't stop. Nothing will
stop the first run Of q tarp, If it has
any size.
If you still-fish in Monkey Hole,
which lies at the mouth Of Rodgers
River, or in one Of the passes Of the
Shark. you are going to be bothered
by shark. They won't run big-usually
but occasionly there1l come along
q real old buster Of tough hide, IA feet
long and weighing TOO or 800 pounds.
II he picks up your mullet. you can
feel his weight and strength quickly
enough, cut your line. They aren't
worth fooling with. You may work
on him three or four hours. and after
all q sharks Just a shark, darned
scavenger who isn't any good at all. If
it's q tarp that took your bait you'll
know it quickly enough. The minute
he feels the prick of your hook, he'll
be out of the water. The tarp doesn't
waste any time telling you just what's
what. He's quite a gentleman-the
tarp-not at all like the Sneaking old
tough-hide the shark. You may run
across q sawfish. or an occasional
jewish. In the former case, cut your
line quick, too, for it's tough work to
land one of these babies, with his
4-inch saw backed by 600 or 700
pounds of meanness. The jewish will
give you quite scrap, but he's just
100 pounds of logy old fish, hardly
worth his salt as gamester.
IF YOU hook a big shark he may
take care of the unlocking process
himself, for the shark has the habit
of backing up on the line and biting
1t or he may roll in it. Either way
he'll get rid of it quick, for a sharks
hide is like q file, only tougher. and
fishing line is only linen. But your
real annoyance with shark will come
when, If you're lucky, you've whipped
q tarpon down to the point where his
belly shows and he's coming in on
his side, when along comes old toughie
and grabs a mouthful Of your tarp.
A big shark can cut big tarpon in
two and do Just about as clean a job
of it as one of those steel-shearing
machines they have in the automobile
shops in Detroit. It makes you down.
right annoyed to have it happen. and
1t will also make you careful where
you bathe, and how you drop your

By NJ. C.. r.

.THIs department receives q copy
of Free America this week and
learns something that it did
= not know before-that this
periodical Is the organ Of the Agrarian-
Distributist movement. Well, there
you are. Life Is simply full Of sur
prises.
1t also learns that, in the past. Free
America has been called New Amer
lea. But, says an admonitory note
inclosed between the pages, this title
gave rise to Q danger Of identifying
the magazine with the New America
Movement. and consequently the name
has been changed. The New America
Movement, say Free Americas editors,
has aims In many respects .. op-
posed to ours" But beyond this they
are discreetly silent. What these aims
are-how reprehensible they may be
1t does not say. One only knows that
they approve Of them.
Well. it is all very interesting. Until
the reviewer received this copy of the
Agrarian- -Distributists' little paper, she
did not know that the Agrarian-Dis-
tributists existed. And now 1t seems
that they not only exist, but are men
aced by villains with aims opposed to
theirs.
As to what the Agrarian-Distrib
utists are, as set down in their paper,
why. it all sounds fairly familiar. and
If like the reviewer. you have not read
Of 1t in their own paper. you undoubt-
edly have read Of 1t somewhere else
under q different name probably. The
complicating part Of the career Of our
enterprising economists seems to be
the limited phraseology Of economics.
Two men have Numerically opposite
panaceas (panaceas still, however, :,
but only the same terms In which to
express them. 1t makes for confusion,
you will say? Well. then, multiply the
men by Q hundred and see what you
get. And comprehend, too, what q
book and magazine reviewer gets in
this day when one only needs a pencil
to set up As an economic authority
and pencils are easy to borrow. Yes,
Just do that.
RUT. II you must know. this Is what
the Agrarian-D Distributkts want:
The principle Of small industry. the
homestead principle, the principle Of
consumer cooperation, the principle
Of government ownership or close gov
ernment control. And that, as they
explain 1t, means that they want the
great industries split up into small
ones. privately and comparatively
owned: that they want every family to
own its own homestead with enough
ground to put in q garden; that they
should have consumer cooperation SO
that everybody should get the highest
pay and be happy. and that all indus
try which does not lend itself to these
terms should be government owned or
controlled.

NaI Germany has protested twice
to the United States Government
within the last two and half months
against anti-Hitler remarks made in
this country.
On each occasion, Secretary Hull
rendered his formal apologies.
In connection with these incidents,
the Washington Government in turn
made diplomatic representations to
Berlin against Nazi press attacks
against American institutions.
The first German protest was made
by the Embassy here on March 4
after Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of
New York City had publicly char
acterized Chancellor Adolf Hitler as
q "broWn-shirted fanatic" in an ad-
dress to the women's section of the
American Jewish Congress.
The second was made by former
Ambassador Hans Luther personally
to Secretary Hull on March II against
second public speech by La Guardia,
delivered at New York anti-Nazi
rally, in which he asserted Hitler was
q man without honor"
So bitterly did the German press
attack the United States generally
after La Guardia's first speech that
Ambassador William E. Dodd was in
structed TO make emphatic representa-
tons to the German foreign Office,
which was done on March IL.

PARIS, May 20-Sources close to

night that Austria had rejected a
French proposal that she join the

signed to combat German and Italian
expansionist plans in Central Europe
The proposal, it was stated, was
made by WON Delbos. Frances foreign

DR.. Guido Schmidt. Austrian under
secretary for foreign affairs, who
pclnted out that Austria's geographic
cal position, between Italy and Ger
many, made it impossible for her to
take any action that appeared di-
rected against them.
This setback for Frances campaign
to raise diplomatic barriers to Italo-
German ambitions followed closely
official assertions of closer understand
ing with Britain and Soviet Russia
concerning maintenance Of the Euro
pean status quo.
Delbos told the French council of
ministers his recent talks in London
with leaders of the British govern
ment and his conference Tuesday with
Maxim M. Litvinoff, Soviet foreign
commissar, had resulted in assurances
those two powers would cooperate
closely with France to maintain the
present political lineup in Europe
