SALMON GO TO WAR

An example of what will very likely happen to Aaskas foremost industry this nation becomes more deeply involved in is furnished by news from Canada where two-thirds of the 1941 canned salmon pack has been ordered delivered to Great Britain.
 The British Food Ministry has placed order for 100000 cases of salmon from the expected 17OO OOO-c case 194l pack. British requirements will be given priority over domestic and other markets an embargo has been placed exports of fresh sal mon for canning purposes all canned salmon exports are to be licensed, shipments from British Columbia ports are to be supervised by the Dominion and a rigid price maximum placed on every grade of fish.
 The British government has discontinued its former policy of permitting imports of canned sal through the usual trade channels and has added purchases of this commodity to the string of food stuffs now under complete control of the Ministry of Food. The arrangement required direct dealings with the Dominion government which has now acted to deliver the goods.
 Thus is remote from the battle field as canned salmon regimented in modern
 The Canadian developments will have effect on the Alaska canned salmon industry. Just what it will be is difficult to predict. We might sell less salmon to England and to Canada and the rest of the world. The war is already reaching a long ways and will reach farther before it is

Attorney General, there is no cer- tainty about it.
 Riddle gave up a lifetime job as U. s. Circuit Judge to return to Washington, but so far the Presi- dent has said nothing to him about succeeding Jackson. However, this is not necessarily significant. FDR gave Stone no hint about making him Chief Justices and neither Byrnes nor Jackson knew definitely about their appointments until the day before they were announced. Chief reason for doubt about Bid dle is talk by friends of Justice Frank Murphy that he is restless on the bench and would like to be- come Attorney General. A hint was dropped by a White House intimate the other day that there might be another Supreme Court vacancy by fall.
 Whether the inner circler was referring to Murphy or Justice Will jam Douglas was not revealed, but the latter has been proposed as boss of the whole defense organization. Copyright, 1941, by United Feature

Iron-Steel Development

Seattle Times) sre.s i1Woa
 Development of iron and steel industry on Puget Sound now possible result of studies made by Prof Joseph Daniels of the University of Washington College of Mines recently made public by the Department of the Interior.
 Professor Daniels has pointed out that the coun- trys large steel mills located in sections where there is abundant supply of coking coal Wash ington has the only large supply of coking coal in the West
 Further interest is attached to this information by another announcement of the Department of the Interior This to the effect that chromte, source of the chromium used in the manufacture of high grade steel and plating metals, be mined the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska The discovery is of added importance when there is danger that im- ports of this material from Turkey may be cut off at any time by the war
 The United States consumed about 660,O00 tons of chromite last year. Less than one percent of this total produced in continental United States Turkey supplied about 10000 tons.
 The growing demand for more steel for warships and other defense products will necessitate larger supply of chromium than was on hand last year The presence of this in some abundance as close by as Alaska would be further inducement for development of steel industry on Puget Sound

Those Aggressive TuscarOras
Philadelphia Record)

(Philadelphia Record)
 A Nazi pixie in the Berlin Foreign Office has discovered that Germany is still technically at war with the Tuscarora Indians
 Seems that in the last war the Tuscaroras weren't satisfied with letting the United States de- clare war on their behalf. They declared war too as an independent nation. Then the TuScaroras who don't keep very large secretariat of foreign affairs, forgot to declare peace.
 We don't know why the Germans think this is funny enough interesting enough to put on the cables at this particular time in history Maybe they want to remind their people that the United States is trackess land filled with savages. Maybe they are looking for pretext to attack New York State where the Tuscaroras used to live
 Or maybe Hitler is looking around for suitable opponent for his friend Mussoni to fight

HOROSCOPE P "The stdrs incline
 but do not compel
FRIDAY, JUNE 20

Adverse aspects dominate t h e morning of this day, but later ben- efic influences are active. Mars and Neptune are both in evil sway.
 Heart and Home: This should be a fairly favorable day for start ing something which can easily be finished. In the household acci- dents may be precipitated and special care should be exercised to avoid falls. There is sign sup posed to encourage secrecy and de- ceit. It is important to keep the trust and confidence of young members of the family. The eye ming is lucky for love affairs and should be most propitious for danc- es or other social affairs. Many en- agreements and weddings are fore cast for next week when there may be sudden events that change do- nestle plans
 Business Affairs: Certain crops may be affected by period of sx- treme heat which will cause tiis- comfort to men in uniform, as well as anxiety for farmers. Trade and commerce will be good and money plentiful. Small shops as well as big department stores will profit. Science will contribute novelties that aid householders and sim plify the routine of domestic work. The preparation and concentration of foods will engage attention.
 National Issues: Radio orators will explain administration policies, thus counteracting undercover pro- paganda which will be widely cir culated, despite constant watchful- ness by police and secret service operatives. By midsummer a cam paign to persecute certain citizen groups and to undermine confi- dence in their work in public af- fairs will reach all parts of the United States. Nazi agents will be active in social and educational circles, astrologers prophecy, and they urge investigations where sub- versive ideas are least suspected.
 International Affairs: Although today promises some sort of en- couraging news regarding the world war there are evil portents that presage surprising changes of plans on sea and land. Astrologers warn that there must be determination to overcome the worst possible con- ditions by midsummer, for history will be made rapidly. Complete ef- ficiency must be assured in the air force, the Navy and the Army before there can be any progress toward victory and that means that there must not be in the United States any guesswork regarding preparedness. 4a'
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of hap piness in the family and steady advancement in financial indepen- dence. S.ss
 Children born on this day prob ably will be endowed with artistic talent or literary ability. They have the forecast of success in life. 5fl

far less important than Dakar and the coast of West Africa. That is what makes the sinking of the Robin Moor by Nazi submarine so doubly significant.
 Intelligence advices reaching the War and Navy departments already had established that Nazi submar- ines were operating out of Dakar- also some Italian subs, it was be- lieved, though this was not definite. German technicians have been in Dakar for some time preparing air bases, and some Nazi planes already are reported there.
 Despite the menace of Dakar, presidential advsers have been wor- ried as to what we should do about 1t. To take Dakar from the French and to hold it against all corners would require more men than the 50,000 in the U. s. Marine Corps. It would require an expeditionary force from the regular army.
 
 And while such troops are avail able, the bottoms to transport them are something else again. Once be- fore. the British urged us not to get mixed up in the South Atlantic be- cause it would divert our Navy from the all-important North Atlantic.
 The sinking of the Robin Moor however, has played directly into the hands of those who have been urging the President to adopt the strongest policy in the South At lantic and, if necessary, land troops on the bulge of Africa.
 So keep your eyes on French West Africa.

 UNEXPECTED CHIEF JUSTICE
 Justice Harlan F. Stone owes his surprise elevation to Chief Justice to little group of conservative Sem ate Democratic leaders.
 A week before the appointment. the President was all set to go through with his original plan to name Attorney General Bob Jack son. But the Old Guard swung into action and the President changed his mind. Three arguments brought this about:
 CD That Jackson, while an out standing attorney, was inexperienced as jurist. CD That the elevation of Stone would leave an opening for Jackson on the bench, at the same time ensure a liberal as Chief Jus tice. (3) That the appointment would be smart politics" since Stone is a Republican first put on the Court by Coolidge, and all of Roosevelt's other selections have been Democrats.
 Among themselves the old Guard CTS discussed a compromise deal by which Stone, 69 years old, would agree to step out in year or two to make way for Jackson as Chief Justice But this proposition never got beyond their private palayers. When it came to suggesting it to the President they very wisely got cold feet.
 Jackson will take over his judicial duties as soon as confirmed. Senator Byrnes will continue in the Senate for a while-at Roosevelt's personal request. With Alben Barkley laid up because of illness, Byrnes is acting Floor Leader and the Ad- ministration sorely needs his skill.
 In fact, the brainy South Caro- linian's parliamentary talents were his biggest obstacle to winning the Supreme Court post. Some of Roose- velt's lieutenants advised against taking Byrnes out of the Senate and depriving the Administration of it's sole topnotch floor general. s..,

 For British Fighters

CAIRO, Egypt. June 19-Letters for the 50,000 British soldiers, sailors, and airmen in the Middle East are being reduced to the size of postage stamps to save weight and bulk in the mails.
 Ordinarily these 50,OOO letters would weigh three-quarters of a ton. By photographing them on film and packing them in small, lightweight containers they are reduced to 13 pounds. On arrival here they are enlarged to four by five inches then rushed to the postoffice to be sorted, folded and gummed prior to dispatch to their final billets.
 The new method also saves the long tortuous sea voyage. Writers are limited to about 700 words. Critics claim this necessitates short CT letters. Others say they. never were very good letter writers.

Canada Is Helpful.
The Canadian province Of Quebec
has announced a 50 short-term
Cthree day. fishing license following
the lead of the province of Ontario.
The season is open and border for
malities are being made as simple
as possible in an effort to bring
American anglers to the Dominion
this summer.
There also has been reduction of
license fees for non-residents fish
ing in Ontario provincial parks. 1t
should attract many anglers, for SO
for four consecutive days is rea-
Sonable.
Algonquin Provincial Park con-
tains more than 5000 square miles
with 1900 lakes 1t is just north of
Toronto. Quetico Provincial Park
is about half as large with similar
proportion of fishing waters. The
areas are abundant with all kinds
of Wildlife and offer a choice of
fishing that includes bass, pickerel,
lake trout and speckled brook
trout-the kind of native brookieS
we seldom find in our own waters.
Aims to Help Others.
There are some readers and here
and there some boatmen who do not
realize that fishing writer's stories
are not exclusively personal hap
peningS. If they were, the actual
value to the reader and the boat
man would be little.
Today's fishing scribe does get
some fishing, but most of his time
is spent in making contacts so that
he has good picture of fishing con-
ditions over wide area to pass on
to interested anglers. In simple
words, he is what is known as a
typeWriter-fisherman-a link be-
tween the angler and the ways and
means of helping him to enjoy his
sport.
For that reason we appreciate
any boatman posting his charges SO
that anglers may know just what q
trip is going to cost them.
Boat hire is not the same every
where on the bay, but for parties
of four and five the average usually
is about Is cents per person per
hour.

The State of Maryland has been
trying to maintain supply of
Wildlife and when possible to in
crease it. Fires, such as those OF
the past two weeks which covered
an area of 9.400 acres, are estimated
to have killed more wildlife than
the State can replace in several
years.
Every fire doubtless was the result
of carelessnesS. Until the drought is
over, not only anglers but every
one else should be careful of fire in
the woods, along the roadSides and
in the fields.
Control Aids Anglers.
Washington anglers who have
fished Western North Carolina trout
streams know of the special regu-
lations in effect, and that all streams
in the national forests are open

troll is practiced so that anglers
may have better fishing.
