Tuna Breeding
Place Located

MANILA, (P)-ScientistS a. last
have found a place in the pac Ic
where tuna fish are Matched.
1t is in the Celebes Sea and ad-
jacent waters south of the Philip
pines. The discovery was made by
Charles B. Wade of the u. s. FISH
and Wildlife service.
Wade identified larvae as small
as one-Sixth of an inch long as
tuna. They were the yellowfin
and skipjack species.
Similar larvae were found IN
the Mediterranean in 1924 but
never before in the Pacific, Wade
said.
Although tuna are caught all
across the Pacific from California

areas never have been exactly 10

EASTON, Pa. (P)-The United

but not peace at any price, Gener-
al Omar N. Bradley, army chief

Technically, we have peace

Sence of armed conflict-but GER
tainly we do not have security"
General Bradley said in an ad-
dress prepared for delivery at the
Lafayette College commencement
exercises.
The American people and their
leaders must accept the belief that
military strength cannot be a
last resort device for the extrac-
ton of poorly forged political
irons from the fire" General
Bradley said.
at is unfortunate but valid
criticism of modern international
negotiations" he added, that a
nations voice whispers or COM
mands in exact ratio to its moral
