My plan, as then announced, was, to bar all traps in bays and estuaries in Southeastern Alaska and in many instances remove trap operation off points where the fish run is intercepted. The plan presented by the committee apparently does not go so far as this.” The committee which presented the cannery plan included H. B.

COXEY'S ARMY CALLS FORTH BUCHAREST, Rumania, Nov. 21—Leaving his sick bed to re. celve an Associated Press corre- spondent, Premier Bratiano char- acterized as ridiculous and fan- tastic reports that he intends to establish a Republic in Rumania. “The ‘Liberty Party’” Premier Bratiano said, “has affirmed con- stantly that Rumania can prosper and develop only with a heredi- tary monarchy which is the foun- dation of its constitution. Mon- archy must be kept aloft from political dissession. Tt is sheer nonsense to refer to me as Dicta- tor for I did not come into power by force but at the wish of the man whose competence has never been questioned—the late King Ferdinand—who realized that he was dying and believed the gov- ernment would be safer in my hands than any other.” Premier Bratiano, who has been with influenza for the past three weeks, flatly denied reports he is threatening to establish a Republic, if Queen Marie went to Paris to see Prince Carol. “The Queen is too noble a wo- man to upset the existipg dynas- tic order.” said the Premier. Asked if he would allow Prince Carol to return either as a mem- ber of the Regemcy or King, pro- vided the Rumanian people de- sired it, the Premier answered: “It does not depend on my willl or that of any other person.
