 The next youngste7 they are toss ing in against Louis is Bob Pastor, former New York University football and boxing star. Right now Bob is one of the best looking prospects in heavyweight ranks. What he will be after meeting the Bomber only time will tell
 Pastor has little to recommend him as a suitable opponent for Louis other than the fact that he knocked out the giant Ray Impelletierre in seven rounds. Outside of that he has shown nothing to stamp him as a future champion. Most of his activity in pro rings has been con- fined to meetings with club fight CTS lads of no more than fair abil- ity. Against them he has been suc- cessful in gaining 19 out of 20 de- cisions He has never rated a great puncher until he bowled over the Imp.

NEW INDUSTRY
 IS INDICATED |. FOR N0RTHLAND
By-Products of Salmon Fish cries May Soon Be
 Put to New Use

That the salmon fisheries of AL aska will provide one of the Terri tory's most valuable by-product in- dustries, when certain economic handicaps now interfering with this development are overcome, is point ed out in the January issue of Pa- cific Fisherman by Roger w. Har- rison and Andrew w. Anderson, technologists of the U. s. Bureau of Fisheries.
 The authors point out that a large amount of waste material heads. tails, and viscera, is annually discarded by the salmon canneries since the material is not suitable for food consumption. Loss of weight in preparing the fish for canning, as determined from measurements in the Kodiak Island region. amounted to 3o6 percent on Sock eyes. 22 percent on Kings, 32 per cent on Chums, 38.2 percent on Pinks, and B percent on Cohoes.
 Rich Quantities
 While this material is unsuited for use as food for human consump- tion, it is rich in the same oil and vitamin values found in the more palatable portions of the salmon, it is stated.
 Difficulties which have prevented commercial development of uses for this waste material are said to be chiefly the relatively short season for operation, and the large capac- ity operations required to handle the material when it is available. In the past the value of the mater ial recovered has not been sufficient to meet the cost of maintaining reduction plant for the short period of operation each year
 The authors of the Pacific Fisher man article believe this difficulty may be overcome by the develop ment of manufactured products having greater value and to pre- serve the waste by some means so that 1t could be converted into meal and oil at the convenience of plants working the greater part of the year.
 Oil Values
 While in the past, salmon waste material has been converted chief ly into meal and oils used for tech- nical purposes, greater value for the oils may be obtained by preparing them for human consumption.
 Other studies by the authors in- dicate considerable usefulness for this waste material as poultry and animal feed, and for the develop ment of vitamin oils for therapeutic use by human beings.
 Especially interesting use for this waste material is indicated in stu dies carried on usng specially pre- pared salmon meal as food for young fish. The use of properly prepared salmon meals, is said to result in a greater saving than correspond ing substitution of salmon meal in the usual diet of farm animals.
 This article also calls attention to the recent work done on the use of an extract of salmon milt in the treatment of diabetes. This "promotin" extract reduces the shock resulting from the injection of in- sulin. It is also pointed out that other pharmaceutical extracts may be developed as result of further work with those by-products of sal mon canning.

arch enemy of the producer, trying TO
gOuge him out of a few ntckeIs. The
refiner is the PARTNER of the prOduc-
er In the business of selling Montana
crude to Montana people.
Realizing that the grocerymen of the
state are not going to close their stores
and go out and sell this crude for pro-
ducers-the producers decided to "begin
at hOme'' in the sale of Montana-made
gasoline to Montana people.
At first it seemed like a tempest in
a teapot" but the tremendous force Of
the little tempest" spread with such
rapidity that 1T is swiftly bringing
solution to the problems of the Montana
oil industry. When the producers set
out to help Montana refiners-tO do some
thing for themselves by doing something
for the ''Other feII0w"-they hardly rea-
Hzed that they were doing the most eff
fecttve thing toward market expansion.
But that is the way it is working out.
The hearing of the oil conservation
board was called to render first aid to
the aiIing whaleIike industry. Thus far
the doctor has been unable to per-
stomach. 1t would appear that the pains
must continue for a while but the signs
point toward AMBERGRIS.
We have pretty authentic reports that
every major company that is selling in
Montana is looking into the matter of
the purchase and use of Montana-made
gasoline else the purchase or construction
OF a Montana refinery. Plans which
have been put off from year to year are
coming to a sudden decision.
THE WISE OIL COMPANIES ARE
MOVING TO CAPITALIZE THIS STU
ATION-tO increase their sales through
the far-reaching effects of the publicity
that has resulted from the oil conserya-
ton board hearing at Great Falls. This
hearing may not accomplish the thing
the independent producers set out to
get, namely, proration, but it has brought
the Montana situation fOrcefuIIy to the
attention OF every refiner and marketer
operating i'm the state. There is one
positive conclusion: SOMETHING MUST
BE DONE. The public is echOing this
conclusion. Public sentiment is bound
to be influenced by the airing of the
affairs of the oil industry i'm the daily
press. Thousands Of people have learned
for the first time that there rs such a
thing as a Montana oil industry that is
providing tax revenue for the state and
employment for men. without this oil
conservation board hearing, they might
not have known about it for more years
to come.
1t must be said on behalf OF the major
ed to jump into this situation in so days

AMBERGRIS

Ambergris is something that we know
little about other than it is very val
liable. 1t is pretty well known that it
comes from the stomach of q sperm whale.
1t is not the product of a healthy sperm
whale but of a SICK whale, as we un-
derstand it. Scientists say that when
the whale becomes very I'LL that this sub
stance forms i'm the whales stomach and
when it is emitted the whale RECEIVERS.
The ambergris is eventually carried a.
shore and is picked up by some fortunate
person who chances upon it, and it Is
worth lot of money.
We realize that the Montana oil
industry is somewhat like a whale. 1t
has to get very sick before it can get
well. We have reason to believe that
out of this sickness there is coming a
great guIp of ambergris that is going
to mean q lot to the people of Montana.
It was only a few weeks ago that
Canadian buyers dropped out of the
Montana crude market and announced
that they would hereafter supply their
needs from Turner Valley oil field in
Alberta, which likewise has AN over
production situation. Turner Valley has
a potential production of $4,000 barrels
per day. Wells now drilling viii doubt
less boost that TO 10000 barrels before
winter is over. Turner Valley is pro-
ducing more than the entire state of
Montana. 1t has enough proven area to
care for its domestic market FOR many
years to come. So, naturally, MOntanans
who thought that they would forever
sell their crude to Canada felt pretty
badly. Quite like the sperm whale, they
have none to blame for that feeling.
It is only reasonable that Canada should
absorb its own crude, and it Is like
wise foolish for Montana producers to
make a bid for that business by enter
ing into a price war which would yield
no profit.
But it left the Montana oil industry
very sick. North Montana producers
realized for the first time their respOn-
sibiIity I'm the matter of finding q mar
ket for their own products. Heretofore
they produced the oil and forgot about 1t,
the refiner and marketer was always
given the worry about disposing of the
crude after il left the pipeline. But with
the loss of the Canadian market, Mon
tana producers realized that there is
market right here in Montana for
more crude than all the Montana oil
fields can possibly produce, yet Mon
tana refiners are having TO ship their
products to far distant points, paying
more than the cost OF the gasoline to
the railroads, to get a market. The
lack of market for Montana refined
products here in Montana causes the
Lack of market for crude oil. Producers
then awoke TO the fact that theirs is
the responsibility for creating q market
for their own crude. They realized,
suddenly, that the refiner is not the

time. They have been unable to build
Montana refineries up to this time be-
cause Of a SHORTAGE OF CRUDE. They
realized that the Canadian market was
more profitable for north Montana prOdiuc-
ers than Montana market, because they
have been getting a price ABOVE the
MiJcOntinent price. Why should they
go into such a market to build refinery,
when they can buy crude in Wyoming
and other states for less money and
ship gasoline into Montana at a profit?
In turn, when the Canadian market
was suddenly shut off, it was impossible
for the majors TO over night erect a
refinery and start selling gasoline made
from Montana crude. No matter how
attractive the picture, 1t takes some little
time to take advantage of an inviting
market situation.
But the aiIing whale, splashing around
in his agony has created a wake ON the
placid surface of the trade ocean that
has been felt in the far-off places: in
Denver, in New York and in San Fran
cisco. We have been told that dealers
meeting in southern Montana of Shell
representatives was assured that Shell
will shortly be selling ShelI-made Nom
tana gasoline. Another report from a
North Montana dealer for STANDARD of
Indiana was that ne had been assured by
company bfi2sb nG WOuAu SOON DO
handling MOntana-made gasoline.
So it is that che solution of the prob
lem is going to cone much more swiftly
than anyone had anticipated. We be-
IieVe that this summer will see tho mar
ket situation entirely clarified. The
following summer will see every oil field
operating at capacity, TRYING TO FUR
NLSH ENOUGH CRUDE OIL TO SUP
PLY THE HOME MARKETS RIGHT
HERE IN MONTANA.
AMBERGRIS will be the early reward
from the short period of severe pains
of the industry.
