Legion Auxiliary Head In two women's organizations, Mrs. Hobart, in an interview, ex- pressed deepest interest—the D. A R, and the Women's Auxiliary | £ the American Legion. She was| National President of the | r body, and her | 2 major factor in bringing it into| being. La year sne was Organizing Secretary General of the D. A. R, advancing to the Presidency this year. “My mission to Alaska at this time is to get acquainted with members of the D. A. R, and make contact, also, with American Legion Auxiliary Units where time per- mits,” Mrs. Hobart said. “We want to hear of the prob- lems of the D. A. R, to consult with its members, to tell them of some of the work we are doing nationally, and to see as much as w2 can of your wonderful coun- try,” she added. Heads Distinguished Party | Accompanying the President Gen- | eral were several other officers of the D. A. R, including Mrs. G. Brosseau, Past President General, whom Mrs. Hobart succeeded in office; Mrs. E. Leary, Seattle, Past| Regent of the National body, mem- ber of the Mt. Vernon Association, end active in Washington State D. A. R. circles for many years; Mrs. H. T. Bredes, mother of Mrs Brosseau, Mrs. W. S. Walker, Past Crganizing Secretary General; and Mrs. J. R. O'Donnell. A reception was given in Lheirl honor last night at the home of Mrs. George Bolyan, Organizing Secretary of the local D. A. R, from 8 to 10 pm. where local members and others eligible for membership greeted the visiting party. Mrs. Hobart signed several applicants for membership in the local body. Visit Museum The party were shown through the Alaska Museum yesterday after- noon following the presentation of the Washington bust. Curator A. P. Kashevaroff conducted the tour and gave an interesting talk on Indian arts and other subjects, Later an auto ride was taken out Glacier Highway despite the in- clement weather. Guest at Luncheon Mrs. Hobart and her companions were honor guests at a luncheon given by Mrs. Robert Simpson at noon yesterday at Mrs. Hooker's Tea Room. A number of local women were invited to meet the distinguished visitors. Mrs. Hobart and Mrs. Simpson are friends of 10 years' standing through association growing out of American Legion Auxiliary work. Although the luncheon was not part of the official program here, Mrs. Simpson included in her guest list a number of the local D. A. R. Owing to the limited seating ac- commodations, and unforesesn con- tingencies, Mrs. Simpson said, it was not possible to have as an extensive guest list as had been contemplated by her. Leave on Alaska Mrs. Hobart and her party sailed at 11 p.m. yesterday on the steamer Alaska for Skagway, Sitka and south. The entire party said they had enjoyed their local stay and were having a delightful trip. — .- Old. papers at tne mplre office r— FOUND A GOOD $6.00 Man’s Shoe “It neither crimps your roll nor cramps your style” " DEVLIN’S ng of National g R. officers and |6 Lowell Hobart, Cin- Ohio, National ~President ACROSS Bulk Imprecation Had on Minute par- {1 | b 1 0. ticle Egg-shaped Portent Italian city .

But it is not in our province to furnish a market tor their takes any more than we can guarantee a market for the finished product of the packers. | When the fish are available for taking, and have been taken as provided by the regulations, ‘our work in the premises is at an end. The incident, however, furnishes concrete evidence that the some- times made charge that our regu® lations prevent seiners from catch- ing fish is untrue,” the Commis- sioner sald. Reason Is Known The voluntary curtailment of cannery operations, which is heavy at Ketchikan, is, of course, the fundamental reason for the in- ability of the packers there to han- dle the seine fares. And the cur- tajlment, the Commissioner point- ed out, was absolutely necessary owing to the almost prohibitive market conditions that have pre- vailed for more than a year. There has been no improvement in ‘market conditions this year. In fact, prices as low as 75 ‘and 85 cents are now being quoted for pink salmon,. “At such figures, canned salmon becomes a liability instead of an asset,” he said. Red Salmon Problem The most serious problem fac- ing the Bureau of Fisheries at this time, Commissioner O'Malley de- clared, is that of building up the 1935 cycle of red salmon in the Bristol Bay district. “We intend to take every possible safeguard to prevent a repetition of the failure of 1930.” “Agent Dennis Winn is covering the entire Bristol Bay district very carefully. This Fall he will visit every spawning area to de- termine the extent of seeding, and for a general survey of conditions here.” Attends Commitiee Hearing Commissioner O'Malley will at- tend a hearing of the Special Sen- ate Committee on Wild Life Con- servation to be held at Portland late this month. Later he will visit the Bureau of Fisheries sta- tions in southern Oregon and Northern California, then return to Seattle for a short visit before pro- ceeding east to his headquarters in Washington, D. C. He plans to make a trip to the Pacific Coast later this winter, probably in November, and will spend several days in Seattle at that time, ‘Mikes’ Reinforce Voices in Africa’s Parliament CAPETOWN, South Africa, Aug.)| 15.—South African politiclans are going to use loud speakers when Parliament reopens. Loud speakers are to be installed in the public and press galleries and at various points in the House there will be 24 microphones, con- trolled from the Speaker's desk. When one “mike” is in use the others will be dead, thus prevent- ing listeners from hearing any whispered side remarks. Old Fapers at The Emplre. WATCH FOR A CAPITOL SEATTLE WOMAN 80-YEARS OLD, ON NINTH TRIP {Mrs. E. Leary, Washington State Pioneer, First Here in 1870 “The Alaska trip never gets tire- some, it always thrills me just as much as it did on the first occasion I made it 61 years ago,” declared | Mrs. E. Leary, Seattle, member of the D. A. R. official party that spent Friday in Junean. Despite her eighty years of age, Mrs. Leary is hale and hearty and full of | enthusiasm about the D. A. R., her |home State and City and Alaska. It was in 1870 that Mrs. Leary |made her first Alaska visit. “There wasn’t any Juneau then, but Sitka | was the main city and I thought it was beautiful, and it remains that way,” she said. Since that in- itial voyage, she has made eight !others, nine in all, and she’s look- ing forward to making more in the future. Mrs. Leary's father, Elisha P. Ferry, was Surveyor General of {Washington Territory, the third iGovemur of the same Territory; jand first Governor of Washington State. She has lived in Seattle for a great many years and owns {much property there, including the Leary Bullding. Her late husband, John Leary, was prominent in Seattle for many |years. He was one of its leading lawyers, a banker and interested /in many Washington State indus- [tries. He died a number of years |ago. | 1“Fewer Bracelets” Is Evening Edict ————— NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—Fewer bracelets” is the evening jewel edict of the moment.
