ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION O’MALLEY ON FISHERIES INDUSTRY. W. W. Jermane, Washington correspondent and associate editor of the Seattle Times, pays just trib- ute to Henry O’'Malley, United States Commissioner of Fisheries, when he says Mr. O'Malley is one of the country’s greatest fisheries experts. Mr. Jer- mane continued an interesting article on Mr. O'Mal- ley by quoting a statement of the latter regarding the fisheries of the country in general and Alaska in particular as follows: United States fisheries at the present time are giving employment to 125,000 men, and at least an equally large number of per- sons are engaged in the manufacture and merchandising of fishery products. The an- nual catch exceeds five billion pounds, for which the fishermen receive 116 million dol- lars. Last year the output of packaged and frozen fish, canned fish, byproducts, imports and exports greatly increased over the pre- ceding year. The fur seal herd on the Pribilofs has been built up until it exceeds a million animals. For the first time in forty years the killing of surplus males is exceeding 40,000 a year. The industry is making a good profit for the government, and seal skins are becoming relatively plentiful in the United States. While the salmon catch in Alaska is smaller than it was last year, I am satisfied that satisfactory progress is being made in saving this great fishery from exhaustion. The bureaw’s fish cultural service broke all records last year, its output exceeding seven and one-half billion, an increase of half a billion over the previous year Mr. Omalley pointed out that satisfactory prog- ress is being made in carrying out the five-year construction and maintenance program adopted by Congress in 1929. There always is difficulty, how- ever, in hiring scientists and having them !unctloni fully without experience of several years. On this| point he says: “It is very rarely possible to secure a biologist or technologist capable of immedi- ately carrying on independent research on a satisfactory basis. Frequently these men must have several years of training before they become really productive. Such men cannot pe secured on the basis of temporary em- ployment. Congress has now recognized that fact by providing that certain parts of our appropriation should be for personal serv- ice. The fisheries bureau is ever anxious that the money turned over to it by Congress be spent in such a way as to yield the greatest possible return.” CHARITY IS NOT THE REMEDY. Lower tariffs would do more than war debt cancellations to improve the business situation in the world and be of far greater lasting benefit to all the countries including the United States, It would be absurd to give billions outright to European na- tions and keep tariff walls between countries so high that Europeans would have to continue to be ob- Jects of charity. With freer trade the various debtor countries would be able to pay their just debts in the course of time and in the meantime it would permit the industries and commercial interests in 'ident. | utes; | to do business on a world basis. t least no one will dispute the courage of Mr Hoover. policy and not charity.

Pinchot’s Little Boom. Pinchot's friends to stir sentiment favoring his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Pres- Several western Senators have received overtures from unnamed friends of the Pennsyl- vania Governor, but except with Senator Norris, whose hatred of Mr. Hoover is implacable, these approaches have not aroused any interest. It is true that Senator Brookhart has urged Republican independents to enter the Presidential race of 1932, and has even mentioned Pinchot's name; but his proposal has failed to excite en- thusiasm anywhere. It is the consensus of politi- cal leaders that should any member of the in- surgent bloc win the nomination, it would prove to be a Dead Sea apple. It is inconceivable, of course, that Gov. Pinchot, or any member of the so-called independent Repub- lican group, could he nominated. The Republicans would not rally to the standard of a man who has done his utmost to disrupt the party and, in season and out, has derided its motives and challenged ts leadership. If the party should find itself so poverty-stricken politically that it would be in- clined to turn to Pinchot, Norris or Brookhart, it would be time to wind up its affairs and call it a day. As between Gov. Franklin D. Rooseveli, the probable standard-bearer of the Democratic Party, and the “blameless woodlander” of Pennsylvania, regular Republicans would have no hesitancy in choosing the former. Happily, the party has not been reduced to such dire straits that it will need to make the choice. Mr. Baldwin on the Churches’ Sphere. (Manchester Guardian) It is generally agreed that Mr. Baldwin never speaks better than when he speaks on matters that are outside the political sphere of the moment, so that an invitation to address the National As- sembly of the Congregational Union on “Religion and national life” would seem to be an opportunity after his own heart. But, as he truly enough pointed out to his hearers on Tuesday, the subject is too vast for successful treatment in twenty min- it would be like trying to get not a quart but the Seven Seas into a pint pot. Nor is it a subject which lends itself to “sparkling treatment;’ brilliance in this sphere usually resembles the head- lights of motor-cars which dazzle only to deceive. So in the end Mr. Baldwin's reflections and cita- tions really seem to be reducible to the blameless proposition that religion in national life is in es- sence the effect of the religious outlook on personal character. “There is no proposition,” he told his hearers, “so convincing as a good life,” so that if religion concerns itself with the producing of such| lives its relations to science or politics are of some- what secondary importance. secure; it is not really its function to challenge either politicians or men of science in their own province. “The Churches,” saild Mr. Baldwin, “should cultivate their own “garden—the garden of religious ‘life,’ which was offered as an ‘attempt at a layman’s answer’ to the question ‘What is the function of the Church in a time like the present’?” It is a layman's answer, but it is one that many who are entitled to speak for the Churches would have no difficulty in accepting. Perhaps their number is greater than it would have been twenty more and more interested in mass production the shaping 6f individual character. ‘Texas Guinan can't get into France or England, so the hope that she might adopt .2 permanent nati Enquirer.)

How One Woman Lost 47 Lbs. In 3 Months and Feels Years Younger Mrs. 8. A. Solomon of New Bern, N. C, lost 47 lbs. in 3 months with Kruschen Salts. She reduced from 217 to 170 lbs. She feels much stronger, years younger and pains in sides, back and abdomen that bothered her for years are all gone. She says she not only feels better but looks better as all her friends tell her. “I shall never be without Krus- chen Salts, will never cease taking my daily dose and more than glad to highly recommend it for the great good that is in it.” A bottle of Kruschen Salts that lasts 4 weeks costs but 85 cents at Jungau Drug Co. and Butler- Mauro Drug Co. and druggists the world over. Take one half teaspoon in a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast. Attention to diet will help—cut out pastry and fatty meats—go light, on potatoes, butter, cream ‘and sugar—the Kruschen way is the safe way to lose fat. Try one bottle and if not joyfully satisfied ~—money back.

Herbert Spencer on Habit | “We are creatures of habit. We succeed or we fail as we acquire good hahits or bad ones; and we acquire good habits as easily as bad ones. That is a fact. Most people don’t believe that. Only those who find it out succeed in life.” The habit of thrift is most important for success.
