, left the way open for Germany to march into Bulgaria and, by threats of military force, cause Greece to make peace with Italy.
 The statement of British position was offered by British Minister George Rendel. He declared that Germany alone would be responsible if war came to Bulgaria.
 He said:
 'If Bulgaria loses her neutrality and was is brought to Bulgaria 1t will be solely and directly on the initiative of the Germans.
 whether the British legation re- mains here depends solely upon the German movements"
 Rendels frank declaration re- called authoritative reports prior to severance of British-Rumanian re- lations that Great Britain had warned Bulgaria that she would re- ply to the entry of German troops by ordering the Royal Air Force to bomb Bulgarian military objectives.
 Despite the British statements there was general relief and satis- faction at the agreement in Bull garian quarters. They took the view that it had reduced the threat of Bulgarian involvement in the war.
 Germany Is Assured
 It was reported in diplomatic quarters here, that Soviet Russia had urged Turkey to conclude the agreement with Bulgaria and thus Germany could be sure, if the as- surance were needed, that Russia would not oppose an invasion of Bulgaria.
 No doubt was entertained here that the deciaration was 8 German diplomatic victory which materially altered the political situation in the Balkans.
 Diplomats discounted the import ance of an escape clause which said the declaration was agreed upon without prejudice to engagements contracted with other countries"- meaning Turkeys engagements with Britain for defense of the Near East.
 Russia was represented as having taken the view that even if the Germans attacked Greece they would leave the Dardanelles alone and thta at the same time Ger man march into Greece would null lify the importance of the Darda- nelleS.
 Bulgaria's reaction was that of relief in the belief that the declara- ton dispelled any threat of a war with Turkey if Germany invaded Bulgarian territory.
 The Turkish Bulgarian agree ment was described officially as a declaration, not pact. Neverthe- less the belief was here that it was equivalent to a formal treaty in so far as any Turkish action to oppose German march into Bulgarai was concerned.
 Jugoslavia Gets Choice
 Belgrade, Jugoslavia, Feb. 1S.- (UP)-Germany has offered Jugo- slavia it's choice of immediate in- innate collaboration with the Axis powers or complete neutrality in the war, and special meeting of par lament may be held to share re- sponsibility with the government in making 8 decision, it was reported today.
 If Jugoslavia chose collaboration it would be given territorial conces- sions, including perahpS Salonika in Greece and northern Albania, if Germany won the war.
 If it chose neutrality it would guarantee not to provide any sur prises" during the war.
 Political experts predicted that if pressed for an immediate decision the government would choose neu- trality.

 Another Italian supply ship of about 4,000 tons and an Italian aux Hilary warship were damaged in at tacks by naval aircraft.
 All aircraft returned safely from all attacks which are in addition to the fleet air arm attacks on mer- chant ships in the central Mediter- ranean mentioned in the Royal Air Force communique of Feb. 15."
 The RAF middle east command at Cairo announced on Feb. Is that an Italina merchant ship had been sunk in the central Mediterranean when fleet air arm planes attacked an Italian merchant ship had been corted by destroyers.
 Shipping Losses
 London, Feb. 18- (UP) British and Allied shipping losses during the week ended at midnight, Feb. g, totalied 13 ships aggregating 29.806 tons, a considerable decrease over losses of the previous week, the admiralty said today.
 The period reported was just prior to last week during which Germany claimed extensive destruction of enemy shipping, including a surface attack on ta convoy west of Portugal which, according to Berlin, resulted in the loss of IA ships totaling near ly 90.000 tons.
 The loss of 13 ships during the week ended Feb. g contrasted with the loss of IS vessels aggregating 57 ,263 tons in the week ended Feb. 2.
 During the week ended Feb. ., losses were nine British ships total ing 19,364 tons and four Allied ves- sels aggregating 10,442 tons. These losses were less than one half the weekly average for the war. With one exception the week under re- view marked the ninth successive week during which losses were under the average for the entire war.
 The average weekly loss for the war up to Jan. l2 was 62,ll7 tons.
 It was pointed out here that dur ing the week under review the Ger mans claimed to have sunk f02 800 tons of shipping while the Italians claimed to have destroyed ships to- taling 5,200 tons.
 The admiralty said that since Jsa. the enemy had lost 257 900 tons oe shipping, including 170000 tons lost by Italy, 73,000 tons by Germany and 14,000 tons enemy-controlled neutral shipping.

German Shins Sunk.

London, Feb. 18-(UP)-A Ger man merchant ship of 4.000 tons used by Italy as a supply ship was sunk and three Italian vessels, in- cluding an auxiliary warship, were damaged in a fleet air arm attack on shipping in the central Mediterran- can, the admiralty said in & com- munique today.
 The admiralty said the damaged vessels were a supply ship of 5000 tons, a merchant vessel of 1000 tons and an auxiliary warship.
 The communique did not say when the attack occurred.
 The text of the Admiralty's com muniQue;
 "A German merchant vessel Of about 1000 tons being used by the Italians as supply ship has been sunk by naval aircraft in the central Mediterranean. An Italian supply ship Of about 5000 tens also was successfully attacked by naval alr- craft.

the Balkans was the best incurance against Axis aggression
 Despite British assertions that the Bulgarian-Turkish non-aggres- sion declaration has not changed the Balkan situation, diplomats here foresaw the possibility that Germany might march into Bull garia and Greece unopposed by Turkey and that therefore Great Britain, confronted by a new and critical situation, might have to recast its whole policy as regards Southeastern Europe.
 Public Shelter Hit
 London, Feb. 18-UP)-At least 12 persons were feared dead today in the ruins of a London public shelter on which German airplane bomb crashed during the night.
 Rescue squads had nearly finished rescuing wounded from the shelter this morning when time bomb exploded nearby and buried two more persons in a shop basement
 Germans dropped hundreds of incendiary and a number of ex- ploSive bombs on London during the night. Bremen put out the incendiary bombs and the explosive bombs did comparatively little dam age. However, one killed at least six persons in wrecking homes in one London area and another, crashing on the big shelter, hurled two iron shelter doors among those inside.
 Rescuers found the entrance blocked, and dug through debris to reach those trapped. Surgeons administered morphia to those more seriously wounded.
 Charles Winter, chief of the shell ter, said he saw a red flash when the bomb struck but heard no ex- plosion.
 He reached for flash light in his coat pocket, to find that his coat had been blown of and that his shirt and trousers had been torn to ribbons.
 Everywhere people were groan- ing as they tried to move" he said.
 Bombs were dropped on a num- Der of east coast points during the night and two of the German bom- bers were shot down.

Hobby of Painting
Brinqs Biz Dividend

For most little boys the habit OF
carrying crayou around for scriobimg
purposes nets them only Little secret
fun and an occasional spanking.
But for Roy Mattson Northwest Air
lines paint shop man. who is well known
as an amateur artist all over the NWA
system, that childhood habit has
brought great returns.
Instead of drawing pictures on Dill
boards and scribbling moustaches on
the pictures of pretty girls, he turned
his skill to good advantage and MADE
a hobby of his artistic ability.
The result is that he finds himself
the winner of an art scholarship equal
to the 2-year art course offered IN
many universities. His chance to go TO
art school was won over 5000 others
from every state in the Union ana from
all parts of Canada.
Art and aviation are my first loves,
Mattsou declared I've had lot OF
valuable experience in the Northwest
Airlines paint shops-and now with TINS
course in commercial art Ill be able
to combine the two fields and become
a commercial aviation artist"
Though he has never attended art
school, Mattson has devoted many
hours to sketching and painting as
hobby.

for automobiles, as 1t requires a thin
ner coating and is less liable to peel
than zinc and most other metals so
used. On account of its nonmagnetic
properties it often is used in the hair
springs of watches and clocks. In the
Jewelry trade cadmium is used in max
ing household silver, and in the manu-
facture of green gold An electric
storage battery using cadmium plates
can be completely discharged indef-
initely without causing deterioration
as is the case in completely discharged
batteries with plates made of other
metals. Cadmium also can be used in
electric yapor lamps.
About 7s5,OOO pounds of cadmium
was used to make compounds in 1910
in the United States, this being an
increase of l6 percent over 1899. Cad
MUM salts are extensively used in the
chemical industry to make lithopone.
smokeproof pigments, glass and porce-
lain colorings, and to color rubber. In
fireworks and torches it is used TO
produce blue flame.
Sold in Sticks
Cadmium metal formerly was sold
to the trade in ingots or blocks but
1t now comes on the market principally
in sticks 5il6 of an inch in diameter
and II inches in length, packed in
strong wooden boxes containing 100
pounds each. 1t also can be obtained in
the form of heavy wire. At present it
is quoted at 80 cents per pound, fob.
New York. 1t is also produced in anode
shapes which command premium Of
cents per pound over sticks. The
recovery of cadmium by present meth
dds is highly expensive.
While the consumption OF cadmium
in the United States was higher than
the production in 1910 it is believed
that with the increased production Of
zinc that cadmium production also
will increase. It is nearly impossible
to increase cadmium production with
out increasing zinc production. Inas-
much as the various domestic refin-
cries which produce cadmium receive
their raw products from the ores Of
many states it is rather difficult to
ascertain just how much cadmium is
produced from the ores of each state
However we do know that with a
United States production of a little
over 100000 pounds in 1910 the Great
Falls, Mont, plant Of the Anaconda
Copper Mining Co. produced in that
year l,307,457 pounds, most OF which
came from ores mined by the company.
In 1890, when w. E. Mitchell, now
manager Of the Washoe plant of the
Anaconda Copper Mining Co., was
superintendent of the Great Falls zinc
plant, he stated in technical publica-
ton No. 800 of the American Institute
of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers,
"Electrolytic production Of cadmium
at the Great Falls plant started in
the first part of the year 1925. Prior
to that time, an experimental unit
had been in operation for few months
during the year 1922.
I'VE do not know whether the Great
Falls plant is the worlds largest pro-
Queer today, but We know that it pro-
duced over q percent of the United
States production last year and can
be counted on to do its share in sup
plying the domestic demand of the
United States during this defense
period"

"At Fort Union Wyeth met with a
melancholy memento of one Of his

a clerk had purchased from a Black
feet warrior. 1t bore the initials of
poor More the unfortunate youth muir
dered the year previously. at Jackson's
Hole, by the Blackfeet, and whose
bones had been subsequently found by
Captain Bonneville. This flask had
either been passed from hand to hand
of the tribe, or perhaps, had been
brought to the fort by the very savage
who slew him.
"As the bull boat was now nearly
worn out, and altogether unfit for the
broader and more turbulent stream of
the Missouri, it was given up, and a
canoe Of cottonwood. about 80 feet
long, fabricated by the Blackfeet was
purchased to supply its place. In this

Defies All Rivals
At Fort Union, Mckenzie, year after
year, defied all rivalry. Company after
company was formed to capture a
share of the rich trade with the In
dams, but one by one they succumbed
to McKenzies diplomacy and superior
energy. Without a charter, with no
governmental grant to shut the door to
competition, the American Fur Co. yet
maintained its supremacy in the vast
region of the Missouri as effectively
as the Hudson's Bay Co., with the
strong arm of the British empire at
! its back, domineered in western Can
ada and the Columbia river country.
The value of the St. Louis fur trade,
most of which passed through Fort
Union after that post was established,
was valued at $4,000 to $1,000 an
nually from 1907 to 1847.
| Mckenzie at times openly defied the
regulations of the United States gov
eminent that forbade trading with the
Indians in their camps, prescribing
that the deals should be made at reg
ular posts and agencies. In this way
the government hoped to suppress the
/ liquor traffic.
Influence Is Great
OF this, Charles Larpenteur, who had
charge of Fort Union several times
during the absence of Mckenzie,
writes:
The American Fur Co., always hav-
| ing had more influence in this coun-
| try than the Indian department.
thought they would abolish the local
law, and carry on trade on the old
i principle, which was camp trading. SO
when the robe trade commenced, trad
ers were dispersed in all directions"
| Mckenzie was king de facto as well
| as in reputation. It was veritable
court that he maintained in the viii
derness. At one time he ordered a
complete suit of armor from England.
/ He even had medals struck to award
to his loyal followers.
| From the style in which he dressed
I really thought he was king" wrote
| Larpenteur, telling of his first meet
| ing with Mckenzie.
Suits Given Clerks
Every clerk engaged at the fort re-
ceived at the outset complete suit
of broadcloth. When Larpenteur was
engaged by Mckenzie he left his skin
suit at Fort William remarking that
