Fur Auction To Be Held April l

WASHINGTON, R-The gov ernment's semi-annual auction oi Alaska seal skins - spring-tlme barometer of the fur business wifi be at St. Louis April IA, the Fish and Wildlife service sad to- day.
 Fur experts say the results O. the sale probably will determine whether fur prices will be higher or lower in the immediate future
 Fur prices tumbled Sharp'"-31 per cent, on the average-after the fall auction at St. Louis last September, when the Alaskan pelts drew unusually low returns. The market made a partial recov- cry in recent weeks.
 Alaskan sealskins come from the government-owned herd on the Pribilof islands.
 "The 30 per cent decline in prices last fall was the result of warm weather, stock market con ditions and other factors" Jules Rendelman, a co-owner of Jandle Furs, Inc, told reporter.
 Within the last three weeks. luxury fur prices have risen 10 to IS per cent, and other furs have increased 5 to 10 per cent. We've had colder weather, and the mar ket went down too far too fast.
 "We expect the prices to in crease still further, but we don't think they will go back up to what they. were. We won't know until after the St. Louis seal sale, be- cause that has come to be the bar ometer in the fur business"

Wildlife Asks For More Funds

WASHINGTON, tP)-The Alas ka Game Commission today in- formed the interior department ap- propriations subcommittee of the House that the construction of air ports and roads and the increased population during the war made heavy inroads into the Territory's Wildlife resources.

 Territorial Delegate E. L. Bart lett transmitted the commissions request for additional funds to pre- serve the wildlife resources. It asked an increase from Sl97, 700 to S341,7O0.
 The commission stated that the wartime improvements had made it possible for hunters to reach the wildS more easily.

To use the sanitary land fill meth

excaating the trench and the bull

much as possible by flattening cans

This has been a bitter season
as far as the animal situation in
Key West is concerned" explain
ed Mrs. White in discussing the
activities of the Humane Society.
There have been many COM
plants on the part of bothA resi-
dents and winter visitors to city
officials and to the Society about
dogs being allowed to run at large
at night, keeping residents awake
in several parts of the city. This
is strictly against the law and the
city manager has instructed the
police to help the Humane So
ciety in ending this nuisance.
"Too many people who own
animals fall short of their re-
sponsibility in giving them proper
care. Large numbers of dogs and
cats seen on the streets are OBJ
viously underfed and many, of
them diseased. /; They should be
properly housed with adequate
food and water supplied them at
all times. People think theyslove
animals, yet thew lahoI them to
forage for food, which is often
spoiled, and get drinking water
anywhere they can-and it is Oft
en- contaminated"
Referring to the ordinance
which forbids dogs in season to
be allowed on the streets, except
on leash and accompanied by
their owners, Mrs. White said,
"This is not an easy task. 1t is
hard on both the dog and the
owner. Yet it is the law and it
must be enforced" She then
cited a recent case of cruelty
which was shocking to a degree.
An owner had tied up a female
dog in an open lot, leaving it to
the mercy of the elements and
male dogs. When, after several
days, the case was reported to the
