MAYOR FLAYS
STRIKE RIOTS

NEW YORK, June 8 Q.N.S).
Mayor LaGuardia told the police
department and the city at large
yesterday that he viii not permit
police activity against strikers
such as the Chicago police tactics
against the Republic Steel Com
pany strikers in that city recently,
in which several were killed and
many wounded.
Before q throng Of several thou
sands in City Hall Plaza, gathered
to witness the presentation Of
medals to police and fire depart
ment heroes of the past year, the
mayor declared vehemently:
"There Is . school Of thought
which would use the police de-
partment for other than its
proper purposes. I now state
that economic issues cannot be
tackled with o pOllceman's
nightstick. ANY philosophy Of
government can be decided only
through the medium provided
by the Constitution and cannot
be suppressed by the use Of
force"

The perch has a small mouth, well
equipped with little, sharp teeth. With
the exception of two or three cousins,
the food Of each of them consists of
crustaceans The others prefer herbs,
grasses and small plants growing all
about them.
They love the shallow places on
sandy beaches. It is not difficult to
see schools of them through the clear
waters Here they go back and forth
hunting the sands for the little crabs,
crayf1sh and other wee crustaceans
that manage to hide most of the time
in the sand. Out of sight, they are able
to move to another location under the
soft, white sands. Once they show
themselves, perch is right there to
gobble them up.
II you know how to manipulate a
hand net you can dip up perch where
they are abundant. However, one of
the ways to catcth them Is to place
nets in the surf.
We are so rich in food fishes this
perch has not been very popular. The
flavor Is not particularly good, the
flesh watery. In China they are dried
and used aS valuable food.
In this family all the species are
viviparous-that is, they give birth to
their young instead OF laying eggs.
The young are Matched within the

FAVORED IN BIDS
Magazine Asserts Private
Ship Firms Do Not Bene-
fit by Free Costs.

Under the present system Of bid
ding for naval vessels construction
By private shipyards "the scales OBJ
viously are weighted heavily in favor
o( the navy yards, whose estimates
DO not reflect actual cost to the Gov
srnment," the Marine Progress, a
monthly publication devoted to the
marine industry and published in
New York City, said yesterday.
The New York Shipbuilding Corp,
low bidder among private yards for
one of the two new battleships, has
listed costs from which Government
yards are free or which they do not
Include in estimates" the article said
That company bid $47,829,924 for
building one of the battleships.
The estimates referred to by the
corporation are: Engineering, $4,139,-
b25; administration, sl,6o0,ooO; social
security, sl,33O,oOo; depreciation,
$857,957; interest on debt, s5l5 1000;
surety and performance bond, s2l5,-
900; insurance, $411,O00; municipal
and State taxes, $665,334; Federal
taxes. $4,000; travelling expenses,
$4,000; jigs and fixtures, 1921, 900,
and miscellaneous items, $628,000,
making 4 total of $1O,682,816.
If the above charges could be dis
regarded, as in the case of navy yard
estimates, the New York Shipbuilding
Corp. would be definitely in the run
ming for the award of contract"
Marine Progress observed.
After inviting private shipbuild-
ing yards to bid on the construction
Of two battleships the Navy Depart
ment has announced that the ships
will be built in Government navy
yards, because their estimates were
millions lower than the private
tenders.
The two new battleships, the
North Carolina and Washington, are
under construction now at the New
York and Philadelphia Navy Yards"
The Philadelphia yard bid $36,560,-
800, while the New York yard bid
