CANADIAN GOLD MINING VIEWS
 ARE EXPRESSED
DevaIudtioa Meets with Mixed Feelings in h.
 dustry Reasons

TORONTO, Sept. 21.--tR- De- valuation of the Canadian dollar by 10 per cent has been met with mixed feelings by the mining in dustry, says V. c. Wansbrough, executive director Of the Canadian Metal Mining Association.
 The base metal industry, he add ed, and indeed all Canadian in- dustries that have a United States dollar market will undoubtedly benefit, However:
 Tn the case of marginal gold mines, benefits are doubtful until the government policy of continu- ing assistance to gold mines is an- nounced. At present some mines with high production cost are re- ceiving up to SAP an ounce and higher for their gold. If assistance payments are cut off, these and all mines now receiving assist ance will only receive $38.50 and it is doubtful if they will be able to continue operating.
 Assistance payments to date have been absorbed by the increased labor costs. This 10 per cent in- crease in the selling price of gold will be largely absorbed by fur ther cost-of- living bonuses paid to mine employees and by increased costs of operation caused by the rise in cost of supplies, many of which come from the United States.
 Another factor of importance to the industry is that 40 per cent of Canadian base and strategic mineral production was sold in the sterling market.
 Also of importance in Canadian devaluation is the encouragement to United States investors and the resultant benefits in the devel- opment of Canadian mines and the Canadian economy"

FISHING AREA
 FOR JAPANESE
 E EXTENDED
Gen. MdeArthur Author. ized Further Expansion
 in Pacific Waters

TOKYO, Sept. 21-R- General Macarthur gave the Japanese an- other huge expanse of the Pacific ocean for fishing today.
 The Allied Occupation Comman- der authorized extension of the present fishing area from 165 de- grees east longitude to 180 degrees, the International Dateline.
 The Japanese may fish in this new area between "A and 40 degrees north latitude. These are the old north-south boundaries.
 Macarthur also authorized the Japanese to fish within three miles of the Ryukymmuo and Bonn Is- lands. Until now they had to stay 12 miles away from those islands which include battle-famed Two lima and Okinawa
 The allied commanders authori- zations were in directive to the Japanese government.
 Seven months ago a headquarters official said the fishing area could not be extended until the Japanese proved they would abide by inter- national and occupation fishing regulations.
 One Japanese fishery expert esti- mated the new area would yield an additional 70.000,000 pounds this year, mostly tuna and albacore. The total Japanese fishing take this year is expected to exceed ' 7,000 ,000, 900 pounds.

 WASHINGTON Washington Social Security experts are wor- ried about what the steel fact finding board recommendations will do to the old-age pension and so- cial security program now before Congress.
 What they fear is series of special old-age pension plans for certain industrial groups that have the strike power to get them. This might leave millions of less-organ- ized workers who have less power to strike with inadequate old age pensions and meagre social security protection.
 Under the Doughton bill, now pending on the House calender, nearly 50,000,000 employees would share contributions with employ CTS to double present social security benefits. The steel board, however, favors pension plan for the steel workers paid for entirely by em- ployers, in addition to government social security.
 What also worries the social se- curity planners is this: will the steel workers and other well-organized labor groups push as hard for higher social security benefits for which they pay part of the cost, when they can get them from the employer for nothing9
 CIO Secretary James B. Carey warned the House Committee on Ways and Means in l946 that if Congress failed to expand social se- curity. then labor organizations of the United Mine Workers will attempt to secure security for their

closed seasons as black bass. Tur-
ties in lakes, ponds and canals
may be taken at any time. Frogs
and turtles may be taken in any
way except by shooting, and if a
trap is used to take turtles, each
mesh shall measure at least four
inches on a side (square mesh) and

no daily bag, possession or legal
length limit on turtles. Ten is the
maximum daily bag limit on frogs.
There's no legal length limit on

Bass Season To
Close On May l

The black bass season for the
inland waters of the state will be
closed from May l to June Is, but
this year the closed season will
primarily affect only the streams
and a few lakes.
Because of the liberalized fish
ing experiment, now in progress
on 26 lakes and Shade River and
all tributaries located in Athens
and Meigs counties, adopted by the
Ohio Conservation Commission,
black bass fishing in most of Ohio's
fishing lakes will not be inturrupt~
ed by the closed season. Restric-
tions of closed seasons, bag limits
and legal lengths have been re-
moved from these waters to de-
termine whether or not most lakes
are overcrowded with small sized
fish which fail to grow because of
overcrowding.
The closed season on black bass
in the Lake Erie Fishing District
will be May 25 through June 80.
This district includes the waters of
Lake Erie and parts of the San
dusky and Maumee Bays in the
vicinity of Lake Erie. At Pyma-
tuning Lake, the Open Season for
black bass, yellow pike-perch and
muskellunge runs from July 1
through November 80.
The daily limit on black bass is
six and the minimum legal length,
10 inches except in the unrestrict-
ed waters. The daily bag limit re-
mains at 20 for rock bass, crappie,
sunfish, bluegill, yellow perch,
white bass and catfish, or a total
of 25 of combined species. There
is no minimum legal length. These
restrictions do not apply to the ex-
perimental waters.
