COMPROMISE IS PENDING IN FISH BOAT CHARGES Government Weighs Case of Men Accused of Illegal Fishing Negotiations for a compromise are pending today between the govern- ment and the operators of the four fishing boats seized by the Coast Guerd Cutter Tallapoosa. The proposal is said to call for the dropping of all proceedings against the boats and cargoes, providing the men plead guilty before Commis- sioner M. E. Monagle to fishing after season. The charge constitutes a misdemeanor, and the accused men are liable to a maximum sentence of $1,000 fine and one year in jail \ Thirty-one men were employed on, the four boats, and they are being represented by Attorney H. L. Faulk- ner. Assistant District Attorney George W. Folta, acting on informa- tion furnished him by Lieutenant Miles Imlay, commander of the Tal- 1zpoosa, handled proceedings for the government. It is estimated that there are 98,- 000 pounds of fish aboard the vessels, which is liable to government auc- tion by the Bureau of Fisheries, slong with forfeiture of the ships, should criminal charges be pressed in their entirety. The ships seized include: The Sea- bird of Seattle, Captain Jacob Cleve- land; the Pioneer of Ketchikan, | Captain ingvold Hansen; The North | of Ketchikan, Captain Neis Borvick, and the Wireless of Seattle, Captain M.

By HERBERT YAHRAI (Associated Press Staff Writer) [o) try last year, filled the air with poli- left John Smith dazed here a bullet, not speech, did the trick—was that Huey P. Long was out of the picture. Since 1935 marked the third year, the definitely post-honeymoon pe- riod, of an administration whose re- very and reform measures did not suit everybody, and since it was the pringboard for a presidential cam- >aign, John Smith srised te find undisguised politics written large on the American scene. | For a time he found himself amid he blood and thunder of old-fash- oned politics. General Hugh John- on, former NRA administrator, Sen- itor Long and Father Charles E. radio priest, engaged in out sizzling phrases reminiscent of s when poiiticians orated in ‘he glow of red fire torches. Name-Calling “Mad pied pipers,” Johnson term- *d Long and Coughlin, “public ene- nies number one and two,” “eco- 10mic shysters,” Father Coughlin retorted that Johnson was a “distorter of history, erverter of logic,” used “the logic of a braggart,” and that the * money‘ changers . . . have marshaled their forces behind the leadership of the chocolate soldier.” “Pampered ex-crown prince,” said Long of Johnson, “and ‘scapegoat’ of the NRA.” Later, Johnson discussed the “lon:,\ aspects of this Administration,” con- tinued to call election; the priest broke with the administration; Long fell before an Townsend’s Power Smith tried to gauge the Francis E.

The 1936 fight seemed likely to be a two-sided affair, yet hardly a straight out-and out battle between Democrats and Republicans. Some Democrats deplored, some Republi- cans admired, Administration poli- cies. It seemed to John Smith that the midwest wouid be a major '36 battle- ground. Development of the Admin- istration’s farm program, the boom- ing of midwesterners as possible Re- publican candidates, the ‘grass |roots” conference at Springfield, Ill., last summer, seemed to point that way. | Attitude of Business Nevertheless, tners were indica- tions late in the year that instead of waging merely a perfunctory cam- paign in the east, where business| seemed largely anti-administration, the Democrats might make that sec- tion a major battleground.

He heard a host of possible candidates mentioned, outstanding among them Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, Governor Alf M. Landon of Kansas, Colonel Frank Knox, Chicago publisher. He watched former President Herbert Hoover return to the arena, with speeches written in a more pictur- esque idiom. But Hoover's position still was not clear.
