REDWOOD FALLS FOR IMAM

fnLDVoOD Tt1LlAO IN MAN L
Christmas seasons has deliberately decorated
it's downtown streets and kept them bril-
liantly lighted evenings, bringing pleasure
to visitors as well as residents. In recent
years many citizens have added touches of
holiday cheer in the residential sections
with inexpensive but attractive outdoor trim
or with interior lights, allowed to shine
forth onto the streets to cheer passersby.
The State Bank of Redwood Falls is to
be commended for encouraging this prac-
tire with contest this year.
1t is hoped that competition does not
limit decorators to those with exceptional
artistic talent or ability to afford an Ella
borate display. To be truly Christmas city,
every home must have some touch of the
yuletide, if only wreath at window.
MOST UN-AMERICAN BIT OF LEG
islation proposed in the United States today
is bill which would "tax out of business"
one type of enterprise Without going into
the manifold problem of chain stores, their
bitterest enemies will concede they have
committed no crime warranting their des-
.truction, otherwise this roundabout tax
method of attack would not be considered.
Should the precedent be set in this case, be
slow to cheer. TAX out of eXistance" would
be an easy method Of some new demagogue
to stride forward, taking over the utilities
already ogled at by new dealers, the rail-
roads, the bothersome newspapers and
radio, eventually perhaps your business and
mine. The power to tax must not be used
as the power to destroy. ....

Deep-sea fishing in San Diego
offshore waters, which has been in
the doldrums for the past two weeks,
is at last showing signs OF improve
ment.
Conditions really commenced to
change for the better last Thurs
day when u passengers on the Star
& Crescent boat company's Sea
Angler caught 20 yellowtail, II
white sea bass and large number
of kelp bass.
The Coronado islands were tenn
porarily abandoned last Tuesday
in favor of more certain catches
along the kelp beds. The sports
fishing boats are expected to re-
turn to the Mexican islands within
short time as fishing in those
waters never remains quiet for any
protracted period of time.
Commercial fishing boats are re-
turning to port with many tons OF
bluefin tuna, caught in San Diego
offshore waters. This indicates that
the chickens of the sea- have
actually arrived in large numbers
When they commence to acquire
an appetite for racehorse sardines

fishing being experienced in south

hurt him in their fight Of two
years ago. Before he could answer.
Max Machon volunteered a robust
"nein". Schmeling echoed him.
Then I wonder just what that
left hook to the stomach Louis land
ed in the seventh round did to
Max. If it didn't hurt him, it sure
ly didn't helpShim. If I were asked
to name five meaneSt, most vicious
blows / ever saw thrown in the
ring, that hook of Joe's would be
Gne Of them. The power Of it drove
the wrist lacing OF Joe's glove clean
out of sight into MaX's middle, and
for a moment I thought it would
win the fight for him.
| imagine the lie detector would
be very sueful too around Pompton
Lakes, where Louis is training. I
would like to bet that it would have
given out a loud screeching noise
had it been hooked to Louis when
he said, SO confidently, that he
would knock out Max in two rounds.
And that it would have all but Jump
ed up and run for It's life when Joe
in answer to a question, said that
Schmeling's right hand was not the

Iona. anchored off the kelp beds
outside the entrance TO San Diego
harbor.
Bargemaster Guy Perkins report
ed that the season started off slow
ly June due to a discoloration oi
the water and an adverse current.
These detrimental features changed
to more favorable conditions last
Monday and the big ones commenc-
ed to bite.
On that day 70 barracuda were
landed and the following day more
than 100 had been caught by noon.
Since then the snakes have been
taking the lures daily.
The most thrilling catches made
on the Point Iona have been white
sea bass. Ten of these edible mon
sterS. scaling from 20 to AZ pounds,
were brought to gaff last Thursday
Many more were hooked and lost
by anglers who were not able to
cope with the strength of these
big fish.
The barge's log also shows excel
lent catches of kelp bass and bot
tom fish, for those who preferred
to use sinkers.
On the whole, considering a
changing moon and warmer weather
conditions, we predict that deep
sea fishing will continue to improve
and that large catches of yellow
tail and tuna will soon reward ocean
fishermen in the San Diego Off
shore area.
