THE JAPANESE ANTI
AGGRESSION LEAGUE"

Like the Russians, who are using
German war prisoners on radio broad
casts to wean German soldiers away
form Adolf Hitler and nazism, the
Chinese are sponsoring an organiza-
ton of japanese war prisoners known
as the Japanese Anti-Aggression
League" to turn Nippons soldiers
away from the aggressive imperialist
philosophy of their leaders.
The moving spirit" in the League,
according to recent Chungking radio
broadcast, is Watoru Kaju, Japanese
anti-fascist, who escaped with his wife
from Japan in 1888 by way of Shang-
hal and Hong Kong.
Members of the League, the broad
cast said, do "front-line propaganda
work." using what was described as
verbal bombardment"- radio broad
casts-to persuade Japanese soldiers
to come over to the Chinese lines.
The Chungking broadcast said "many
Japanese deserters have given them
selves up to the Chinese after hearing
their ex-comrades'
The Chinese radio added that at one
time the verbal bombardment' on
the Ichang front was so effective that
Lieut.. Gen. Sonobe, then commander
of Japanese troops in the area, made
a personal inspection visit to the
front" to listen to the verbal bonn
bardment'"
"The Sixth Company of the 1O4th
Regiment was placed under arrest and
the company commander court-mar-
tailed" the broadcast said, when the
general found its men weakening UNI
der the verbal bombardment'."

 These facts go to show just how closely imitation is breathing down backs In manner of speak ing fl already is upon although it's effects not yet bringing any widespread misery suffering. But unless every present effort is continued to fight off this danger, and unless bulwarks constructed against it, we must expect to feel its worst con- sequences.
 The situation would not be bad except for the
 limitation of civilian goods Available materials would be subject the hottest sort of bidding, it not the rationing curbs the government is imposing. Yet, in spite of this very obvious menace there are selfish groups which doing all in their power to break the price ceilings in order to boost individual profits.
 The nation must hold the line in this very vital battle in spite of all and any group opposition. With billions of free and easy dollars to be spent, the dangers of inflationary spiral are entirely too near and serious to allow any other course

 B. c. Pack Small
 British Columbia, with 1,257 ,218 cases, was short of 1922 figures by a half million cases. Puget Sound and the Columbia River had the smallest packs of canned salmon in their history, with 110,677 cases and 167- 660 cases respectively.
 Tuna canning increased narrowly as result of an all-time high in Albacore, the highest-priced variety The pack of Aibacore in California just missed being the largest or record, and was best since 1925 Tn oregon and Washington, the 1949 Albacore tuna pack was almost ex- actly the same as in 1942, about 100000 cases. For the coast as a whole, tuna canning produced 206 million cases, of which 728.342 cases were Albacore.
 Sardine Pack Short
 Although greater than in 1942, the California sardine pack of 1943, B. 291, ,570 cases, again was substantially short of objectiyes. Notwithstand- ing this fact, California sardineS were second only to salmon among canned seafoods
 Weather conditions were blamed by fishermen and government authorities alike for failure to attain the expected catch. The industry worked closely with authority in ar effort to meet the national needs
 Pacific macksrel boomed again with more than 900,0O0 cases packed in 1943. In British Columbia. her ring canning exceeded salmon can ming in volume produced, with the l943 pack exceeding 100000 cases

SKYROCKETING INCOMES

Officials estimate that out of every three American families now has annual income of more than 5000 a year Between 1885 and 1940 only one family in 10 earned this amount. During the de- pression years hardly family in 30 had an income approaching that figure.
 As of August l943, the average weekly earnings of American labor was $4352. This is an increase of 164 per cent over earnings of August. 1922 and 439 per cent above the 941 figure It is than again the average national weekly wage during the lean years of the early 30s.
 The result of this increased earning capacity has been quite naturally, tremendous surge upward in the national income. The 1943 estimate is $145 GOO O00almost per cent higher than the national

above $5 per pound for much of the year, and the income of the fisher men from the shark fishery exceed ed million dollars monthly average.
 Trawling continued to increase in 1943 at a spectacular rate. This fishery has doubled its production in almost every year since 1882, reaching 62,Oo00O0 pounds in 1943, The fresh and frozen fish business based upon this source becomes more and more important, and the Year book shows construction of new plants for this enterprise featuring early 1914 activities.
 Fish oils and fish meals are rated as essential products in time of war, and the Pacific yield during 1943 generally was considered adequate, although the national requirement. for them was rated as unlimited

SALMON PACK
 IN '43 SHORT; REVIEW GIVEN

SEATTLE, March 7-Handicaps imposed by war were largely over come by Pacific fishermen and fish packers in l943, but natural scarcity of fish in some of the most im- portant divisions of the industry kept canned fish production short of objectives, the forty-first annual Yearbook of Pacific Fisherman dis closes
 Sweeping diversion of the best fishing vessels to military use has been but partially offset by new construction. Manpower and ma terials are tight to the point of limiting output.
 The Yearbook reports that can ned salmon, first product in volume and value, was 20 percent under average volume in 1943; and nearly 10 percent short of the scant pack of 1942. Alaska salmon canning, with 5,413,265 cases, was not far below normal, as good runs in Vest

HOROSCOPE "The sturs incline
 bat do not compel"
FRIDAY, MARCH IT

Adverse aspects rule today after early morning The stars beilefit the clergy and other leaders of the people.
 HEART AND HOME: In home and schools special attention will be focused upon health. Diet and physical training will be studied as never before. National pride in the fitness of American youth will inspire wise reforms.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Despite restrictive legislation and other such safeguards, secret monopolies will flourish. Sensational exposures may be expected this year but they will be quickly moke-screened and soon forgotten. Aquarian infiu- snces, however, are to become eff fective later
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Too much press and radio discussion of deli cate international problems may cause unfavorable reactions in Eur cpe and Asia. Silence is golden.
 INTERNATIONAL A FF A IR s :: On this date Ireland has special significance because of the Saint Patrick legend. The stars seem to indicate that Erie will be friendlier to Britain before the end of the war. Her neutrality will prove most unfortunate in postwar trade re- adjustments, it is forecast.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have tie augury of year of difficulties. Vigilance and caution should be observed
 Children born on this day will probably have eventful careers. Success will follow hard work.
