And out of a proposed reduction of 58| in Panhandle, 51 will come from companies | operating five or more traps. Thus the independent | trapman and the “little fellows” stand a f getting off lightly | The Commissioner was not inclined to make any | and independent imposed, particularly ones. were as the chance | changes in regulations affecting purse seines. EXist- | ing regulations have made it impossible for the | big boats from Puget Sound to come north and | operate. At present, the Commissioner feels, ac- | cording to the Pacific Fisherman, that the seine boats are owned by individuals, most of whom reside in the Territory and are dependent for | their livelihood on the use of their gear. | This view is sound. Every possible latitude consistént with the \prefer¥ation of ~the runs' should | be allowed the seiners. At best next year is not| apt to be ove prosperous for them. With great| stocks of fish in warehouses without a market, and | prices below production costs, it is apparent ihat | the canners will not be able in 1931 to pay prices | for fish that were justifiably paid in the past few years when canned fish were bringing some 50 per cent more than can be had for them today. Re- laxation rather than restriction, if possible, should | mark the 1931 regulations for the seiners in order | to partly compensate them for lower prices iheir | ain to bring. fares are DOMINION MAY BECOME KINGDOM. Next February Canada's Parliament will be call-| ed upon to decide if that coun shall change its name from “Dominion” to “Kingdom,” and if Canadians shall again be entitled to receive titles of nobility. It is not proposed to change the identity of the country as a part of the British Empire, merely to change the title of the country under King George its sovereign. These two propositions are to be submitted to the Canadian | Parliament at Ottawa next year by Armand La- vergne, Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons. He is not the first to suggest that Canada | should be krown as the “Kingdom of Canada.” | Sir John MacDonald, the first Premier of the coun- try, wanted that name instead of the “Dominion of Canada,” in 1867 when Canada was organized by the federation of the separate British Colonies. The major factor in the rejection of this proposal, it has been understood, was out of consideration for the feelings of the United States which, it was as feared might be offended if a “Kingdom” should be established on the North American continent. If these fears were justified at that time, they would not be today. America sensibilities would not be affected by the change if it were decided to maRe it Up to the period of the World War, British sovereigns on occasion bestowed titles upon worthy Canadians. At that time, in an access of ardor for Democracy, the Canadians, through Parlia-| ment, petitioned the throne to discontinue the practice on the ground that the foundations of the nation were being weakened by creation of a “titled aristocr Since then, no more titles! have been passed around in ‘the Dominion, to the| regret of not a few. Two years ago an effort was made to modify this ban, but it was defeated in the House of Commons Ottawa. The recent | change from a Liber he Conservative control may make it possible for Deputy Speaker to get his own measure through There seems to be more doubt about changing the name of Canada to “Kingdom.” There are many Canadians who would not oppose granting | of titles to fellow. countrymen, but good reason why “Dominion of Canada good enough, particularly in view of the fact that “king- dom” as a, national name is becoming more and more obsolete throughout the world each succeed- ing generation. This is, however, a purely domestic question which Canadians probably will decide with their accustomed sanity and good taste without outside advice or criticism being called OIL RESTRICTIO.
