Magma Carta Gives
Anglers Right To
Fish Irish River

DUBLIN - up IL Irishmen take
their fishing seriously.
So seriously that the Dublin high
court was asked to decide if eighty
Donegal fishermen had the right to
wet their lines in three-mile trib-
utary of the LOugh FOyle, the river
which runs through northern Ire
land and Fire.
The Irish Society, founded 1886
years ago by King James l to ad-
minister crown estates in Ulster
claimed it owned the fishing rights
under royla charters received in
1913 and 1882. Hundreds of dOcu-
ments, many dating from the 18th
century, were introduced.
For 48 days the court hearing
drOned on. Costs were estimated at
100000 pounds ($8OO,OOO)
Justice Gavan Duffy gave his de-
clsiOn recently. The 80 Donegal fish
ermen won the right to fish the riv-
er. Any charters granting the rights
to the Irish Society were contrary
to the Magma Carta, Justice Duffy
held.

Parcel Post

The Parcel Post system of Uncle
Sans Postoffice Department is
enjoying a definite squirt, both in
the number of parcels handled and
the revenue it collected from this
source. In the IL months ending
last June 80, the system handled
6,085,000,000 pounds of parcels. In
the IL months preceding, it
handled 4,958,O0O,OO0 pounds. A
large part of the increase is attri-
buted by postal officials to the fact
that the Railway Express Agency
increased its rates last January.
They point out that the post office
plans to increase its parcel post
rates also next January.
