Chmnge Proposed m Stake
 Net Fishing in Bristol Bay
By J. J. ECKLES Secretary to Delegate Dimond

WASHINGTON. Feo. 28.-(Spec- ial Correspondence)-In bill in- troduced by Delegate Dimond and now pending before the House Con- mittee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, the Delegate proposes to amend existing law regulating the operation of stake nets used for commercial salmon fishing in the Bristol Bay area so as to permit residents of the region to use stake nets who are not now eligible to do SO.
 Present law prohibits commercial salmon fishing with stake or set nets in Bristol Bay and it's tributary waters, except by persons who have resided for at least 5 years within a radius of 30 miles of the location of the stake nets The bill now under consideration will, if enacted, modify this law to permit such fishing by any American citizen who has resided continuously for ? years within the watershed area of Bristol Bay, or since June l, 1937. This amendment is deemed de- sirable because it would extend to many more residents of the vicinity additional means for livelihood in the industry and still not open the use of stake nets indiscrimin- ately to nonresidents. Favorable report was made on the bill by Assistant Secretary of c 0 m m cree Ernest c. Draper on February 18
 METLAKATLA BOAT HARBOR
 A resolution requesting the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Har- bors to review the reports on Met lakatla Harbor was considered at the instance of the Delegate and approved recently by the House Committee on Rivers and Harbors, and has been transmitted to the War Department.
 
 Following the preliminary exam ination of the harbor with a view to it's improvement, authorized in the general river and harbor act of 1885, the Chief of Engineers on December 10, 1886, made an adverse report on the proposed construction of a breakwater to provide a small boat harbor with protection from the gales that resulted in the loss of a number of boats at various times in the past. This report gave as the view adopted that the cost of protected small-boat harbor on the exposed frontage of the town of Metlakatla would exceed the

LIONS SPONSORING
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
Decorations Completed But
Must Now Be Paid For
By Merchants

Committees representing the Hen
derson Lions club circulated among
the business people of Henderson to-
day to obtain cash. contributions to
defray the cost of the Christmas de-
corations, which haYe just been erect
ed in the business section of the city.
The Lions club took over the spon-
sorship of the project this year at the
request of the directors of the Hen
derson Chamber of Commerce, it be-
came known today.
The vari-colored lights in the bust
ness section were in place, including
the stars at the street intersections,
and the lighting system was illuminat-
ed for the first time Wednesday even
ing. But huge lighted Christmas
tree is to be erected in the triangle
at the Garrett street entrance to the
Church-C Charles street underpass, in
the same location as last year. 1t is
directly in front of the First Meth
Odist church. City firemen, it was un-
derstood, will supervise the erection
of this tree. 1t is hoped to have it in
place and lighted by the end of the
week, so that the entire Christmas de-
corations system may be in place and
in use by Sunday Sam Afford, chair
man of the drive to raise money for
financing the venture, said today the
large illuminated tree would be big
ger and brighter than last year.

farmers HERE AT
WALLACE MEETING
Secretary of Agriculture APP
peals. For Retention Of
Crop Control

A large number of Vance county
farmers made the trip to Raleigh to-
day to hear the address by Secretary
of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace, urg-
ing retention of Federal crop control
for 1889.
In the crop referendum last spring
Vance county farmers went almost
unanimously for control in 1888. There
has been much dissatisfaction since
then with the handling of the control
law, but most opinion hereabouts
seems to be that there will be suffi-
cient affirmative votes at this time to
carry the control issue for both to-
bacco and cotton for 1899.
Both referenda are to be held on
Saturday of next week, December TO-
Voting places are to be designed for
the convenience of the growers, and
the general expectation is that there
will be a heavy representation of far
mers at the polls.
In the referenda last spring, gov
eminent officials said they would
make no effort themselves to in
fluence the vote of the growers. This
time, however, AAA chiefs, high and
low, are plainly working for favor
able vote among the farmers. In or
der to carry, a two-thirds majority of
those voting must be in favor of con-
troll.

Sale Of 1899 Auto Tags
For State, City Started
Expect 100 Sets of
State Plates To Be
Bought During Day;
Very Slow Moving for
City Tags; First Buy
ers of Tins Are Listed

Sale of new 1885 automobile license
tags for both the State and the City
Of Henderson began here today, and
w. C. Gates, manager of the local
branch office of the Carolina Motor
Club, handling State tag sales, said
he expected to dispose of 100 during
the day. At the city clerks office,
where city tags are on sale, only a few
less than a dozen, had been sold up to
IL o'clock.
The first city tag went to Mayor
Henry T. Powell, No. 1901. The first
set of State license plates went to f..
Ia Fleming, incoming county COM
missioner, his number being 3O4-5O1.
]. c. Gardner got No. 304-502. The first
truck license went to the Barnes Fun
eral Home, No. 157-3O1, and the first
trailer license went to Vassor Perry,
of Route 1, Louisburg, it being No.
55-6O1.
First buyers put their new tags on
their cars Immediately. The city plates
are the same color style as the States
tags, but are trifle different from
those of last year. The color scheme
for both is silver gray numerals on
background of maroon
The State tags have different style
of figures and State name line, both
being form of script instead of the
square-cornered letter and figure de-
signs that have prevailed for years.
Those who have glimpsed the new
plates have expressed much more de-
light at the new style than for those
of the past several years, especially in
the color mixtures.
City tags cost only 81 per plate. and
there is but one plate. The same price
applies to tags for all makes of au-
tomobiles, trucks and trailers. Under
the law, the new tags can be display
ed on and after December 1, and it is
a violation to display 1888 plates on
any car operated after midnight De-
