HALIBUT FISHING IN THIS AREA ENDS JUNE 27

SEATTLE -lR- The longest Area halibut season in recent years, and one of the most prosper- ous' Will close June ? at 6 a. m.
 By that time, the International Pacific Halibut Commission an- nounced Monday, the international fishing fleet should have taken its l956 quota of F million bounds off the coasts of British Columbia and Alaska south of Cape Spencer. The total as of last Saturday va. l512 million pounds.
 The season opened officially Nav 12, but by mutual agreement, most boats stayed in port until Nav 20. The season was further delayed bv poor weather and seven-dav rest period between voyages.
 The layover was agreed to by fishermen for the first time this year to extend the season and Keen heavy landings over a brief period from depressing prices.
 The offical 1856 season will ev- tend 4G days, the actual season aS. Some years the fleet has caught its Area quota in as little as three weeks.
 However. the heightened season has combined with depleted stocks when the season opened and with entrance of some new buyers on the market to strengthen prices substantially over last years. Seat tie prices of the preferred medium halibut averaged IT. cents a pound last year Seattle prices now are running close to 2f cents for mediums.

are so excessive as to make ii
impossible for the Colored Fun
eral Directors TO purchase the
necessary insurance to comply
with the City of Miami Ordinance.
The funeral directors contend
that the contract they signed with
the county on Feb. %, 1852, had
not been complied with by the
latter, resulting in heavy finan-
cial loss to them. They also feel,
that by law, the 1852 contract
should have expired in two years.
A letter dated Aug. Is. 1856,
and signed by the chairman OF
the Dade County Commissioners,
was the spark that opened the
eyes of the funeral directors. The
letter authorized payment to "au
licensed funeral homes in Dade
County" of the sum of $500 for
each INDECENT or pauper burial.
But the Negro funeral home OF
orators were not to participate.
At a meeting on Tuesday the
County Commission again took
its stand that it is not the re-
sponsibility of the county to pro-
vide ambulance service. The col
ored funeral home operators
served notice that they will dis
continue ambulance service on
Dec. !.
The county has threatened to
file suit against the Negro under
