thing l like about him is the
quickness with which he admits
he is wrong. He analyses a sit

nail on the head much better than

COMMERCIAL BOATS
Once upon a time the charter
boats in Key West were the fin
est boats in the city and the COM
mercial boats were old and usual
ly powered with an automobile
motor or an old Palmer lone lung
err. But since the war started
there are several boats which are
beauties and used just for COM
mercial fishing. They all have
the low housing forward with the
stern sheets quite open to allow
moving around while fishing and
loading the fish on.

mercial fishing. They all have

KINGFISH ScARcER
Kingfish, which have been close
to shore, have not been found in
such great numbers for the past
two years. You could see the
huge fleets of commercial fisher
men within sight of Rest Beach
or just south of Woman Key in
the past few years as the schools
moved inside the reefs from the
Sambos and to Hawk Channel out
to Rebecca and Dry Tortugas,
their winter grounds, but the fish
seem to have caught on to mans
habits and the best catches now
are down at No Mans Land,
which is fifty miles west of Key
West. Fishermen report plenty
of fish down there. 1t is hard
trip, however, with lay-over
nights at MarquesaS and fisher
men would have preferred to fish
just off Key West. The late Ben
Tink Demeritt, who knew more
about Key West fishing than any
ever did, often said that fish
were quite wise and changed
their habits for their best well
fare. Up at Miami in the old
days fish could be found over the
tiny strip of reef near Miami and
kingfish were brought in in just
as great numbers as they are here
now. But you can only get king
fish off Miami way out in the
Stream now and the reef is bare.
DROP OFF HERE
In many years of fishing here
since was five years old and
owned a five-foot skiff, 1 have
noticed a drop off in the number
of fish caught. Not many years
ago large crevalle jacks used to
go right up into the Sub base at
the Navy Yard and boats would
catch from thirty to forty an aft
ernoon. Then they moved just
off the breakwater and the last
time l have caught that number
they were out on the reefs seven
miles from shore 1t seems to me
that kingfish have been drop
ping off from their spots close to
Key West in the last seven years
and fishermen reports this year
corroborates that. During the war
the refs were quite thick with
barracuda but you watch what
a few years of charter boat fish
ing will do to them. This is a
good time to start sportsmanlike
tactics in releasing fish among
the charter boats.

WELFARE FUND IN
 3RD WEARS F0TTON

ANCHORAGE = Only S14.10 re- mains in funds of the territorial welfare department for expenditure in the Third Division during the rest of November, it was disclosed by Margaret Hafemeister, in charge of the division office here. Mrs. Hafemeister said the de- partment can handle no more bur ials of indigents, new child care cases, or provide fuel or food for indigents.
 TWO semi-monthly cases that called for help Friday had to be turned away for lack of funds, Mrs. Hafemeister said. The welfare director said the only solution is for indigents to not die. get cold or hungry dur ing November.
 She explained that under the limited budget for the department, the Third Division is allowed $l ,330 month. Welfare cases already under care consume all but between $500 and S400 of the monthly bud- get.
 We have about $500 to meet all emergencies each month in the entire division and so far this month the emergencies have taken all but $14.10 of it.

JUDY GARLAND IN HARVEY GIRLS' AT
 CAPITOL SUNDAY

Music, romance, laughter drama and thrills are widely assorted com ronents of M-G-M's new Techni- color entertainment treat, The liar vey Girls" which comes to the Cap itol Theatre Sunday with Judy Gar land topping a star-Studded cast.
 A filmusical vignette of pioneer New Mexico of the 1890's, with the saga of the famous eating houses established by Fred Harvey along Santa Fe Railroad as its theme, the plot has Miss Garland singing, danc- ing and even shooting her way into a battle royal between the forces of civic enlightenment and the saloon desperados who resort tc an attempt to burn down the Harvey House to gain their nefarious ends.
 Miss Garland does the top work of her career as Susan, the little Har- vey Girl who refuses to be intimi- dated by Ned Trent, hardtoiled gambling hall proprietor, with the result that she ultimately takes charge both of her man and his morals.
 Trent is effectively portrayed by John Kodiak. Angela Lansbury is both sinister and gay as Miss Gar lands tough rival and dance-hall queen. Ray Bolger's lightning feet ars seen to advantage in some ot the pictures many musical numbers Others in the flawless cast are Vir- oinia O'Brien, Kenny Baker, Mar jorie Main and Chill Wills, who lend their respective talents to either songs or comedy, and sometimes to l9Oth

Senate Support Seen
For Truman S Plea TO
Extend Price Controls
BY the Associated Press.

by ttc AscOClhteu FESos.
Word went out to the recon-
vening Congress today that
President Truman will ask a full
years extension of price control
That would carry the act to
June 80, 1947, and first reaction
among returning Senators was
that Mr.. Truman will get his re-
quest, possibly in modified form
In his fireside chat to the people
January 3, the President declared
that price and rent controls will
have to be maintained "for many
months to come" He added that
he wants the law renewed well in
advance of its expiration date.
A Senator with White House con-
facts said a full years extension
would be asked, possibly in Mr.
Truman's state of the Union" mes
sage next Thursday. This Senator
asked that he not be identified by
name.
Told of the development, Senator
Overton, Democrat, of Louisiana
commented:
II will support a full years ex-
tension. Actually, it may have tc
be retained longer than that-two
or three years-until supply catches
up with demands"
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, OF
Arkansas, said he was mot unalter-
ably opposed" to continuing the
controls in modified form for an
other year, but he added:
Il do think Congress has to mod
ify the overall powers in the act,
either by making categorical ex-
ceptions to prevent the imposition
of controls where continued cell
ing prices would stif1e production
or by specifying the items on which
ceilings might be placed"
OF the two suggested modifica-
tions he said he thought the latter
preferable. Senator Taft, Repub-
lican, of Ohio, is backing a similar
plan under which OPA would have
to come before congressional COM
mittees and justify controls fol
every item it deems likely to be
scarce after midsummer.
Senator Hickenlooper, Republic
an, of Iowa, said:
i think the price control law
should be continued, with an
amendment to the effect that OPA
cannot fix price below the cost
OF production, plus an average nor
NAL peacetime margin"
