Two Million To
 Develop Fishing

SEATTLE, Juyl 16-Two mil lion dollars has been loaned to the Pacific Explorations Company by the Defense Plants Corporation to provide for exploratory deep. sea fishing off the coast of Alaska, Sen. Warren C.. Magnuson an nounced recently.
 The Senator said an 8,80O-ton vessel had been released by the Maritime Commission to the Fed eral Government and was being outfitted at Bellingham Wash, for the exploration. He said the com pany, headed by Nick Beg, was formed recently for the express purpose of exploring the fishing resources of the continental shelf of the Alaskan coast.
 He said the exploration also would establish legally American rights to the fishing grounds and make 1t possible for the President to extend the "three-mile-limit" to the edge of the shelf and prohibit fishing by other nationalities.
 The President in conversation recently indicated such action might be taken to protect the American fishing indusry, Magnu- son said. He said the ship now be- ing prepared would act as a can- nery ship for trawlers which would deliver their catches to her in midocean.

Big business or little business,
the way some folks talk, it is
a crime to be big. And the ones
hoppin' onto big business like it
was a horse thief, they say give
little business chance. But if a
Teller running a little business
succeeds because he gives good
service like if he has a laundry
and sends your shirt home with
some buttons still on, he will
have more business than he can
handle and will have to buy.
another delivery truck--and then
he will be Big business.
Looks funny, don't it, says
Henry. Well, I says, not so funny
when you look under the covers
and see who is stirring UP the
