Wakefield of Seattle, who has been in tne fishing business in Alaska for twehty-one years, makes that statement, and has facts | and figures to back it up. \ ‘Wakefield estimated today l.lm:l not mote than 20 per cent of the herting caught in the Kodiak area \suls out there Grandma’s Rocker Coming Back AMERICANS ARE SLOW TO MOVE OUT OF DANGER XState Department Has Headaches Over Those | Told to Leave Spain By PRESTON GROVER WASHINGTON, Oct. 14—Ameri- cans in Spain gave the State De- partment no end of headaches by failing to get out of the danger iareas when told. That won't hap- pen in China in case that nation comes to blows with Japan. Chronically upset condtions in {China have taught foreign resi- |dents to be on their toes when their ‘mmuls pass the word to get out. ,But the word has not been passed from here and if it should come it likely won't be officially from the State Department.

Many Uses For Oil Herring oil is used in making| cooking compounds, soap, gear cut- ting oil, in tanneries' and by paint manufacturers. The meal is used for poultry and dairy feed. The five leading herring operators in the vicinity of Kodiak Island packed about 17,500 barrels this season. Wakefield, who employed sixty- five workers at his plant, said the smallest pay for any fisherman was $1,400 for three mohths’ work.

LEAGUE STEP EXPECTED Out of the December meeting of American nations in Buenos Aires is likely to come no “American League of Nations.” But a step toward it will be taken, or many with their ears close to the State Department will be surprised In calling the conference 10 months ago, President Roosevelt suggested that peace should be promoted either through full ratification of present American peace treaties, by new “peace instruments.” the latter grew talk of an American League to reinforce the Geneva League. ‘There is some sentiment for it in the United States. At the State Department® you learn that the feeling is shared in some South American States—but not enough. One outlook is for a sort of per- manent secretariat to start peace .machinery operating faster than under the present system of arbi- tration treaties which provide mainly for- appointment of com- A0 Rockers lend character to a room. By MARY DAVIS GILLIES Prepared by McCall's Magazine for The Empire Maybe it's old age pensions. May- be it was scenes in “Little Women.” M:yybe it's the end of this fast, streamlined living. Anyway, the rocker is coming back. If you threw out the rocker with the horse-hair sofa, “tidies” and the stuffed birds, you will be sorry. You will soon be buying a new rocker and the more it looks like the old Federal or Benjamin Frank- iin chair, the better you will like The revival started, sensibly enough, in the Middle West, but New England and the South, too, are clamoring for their rockers. It is surprising what character one of the old Federal style rock- ers will give to a bedroom—yes or a living room—done in the Fed- eral manner. In your Early American living rocm, you will find a black lacquer- ed Boston rocking chair, with a d stencil, in blessed Harmony. But more than in its charming, homey lines, the new appeal of the old rocker is its comfort—some- thing old-fashioned which we have almost forgotten. We have be- come so accustomed to being moved as far as possible from here—and as uncomfortably as possible—that we will all welcome the exquisite pleasure of moving ourselves and getting nowhere—in comfort. Do you know how many years it took the modern furniture design- ers to find out how to make their chairs nearly comfortable? Weli, those who designed and made and sat in the old Boston rockers took 150 years to develop the perfectly pitched seat and back. Comfort from experience! i missions after the trouble presents itself. Of the several present trea- ties, not one has been ratified by all the states. So there is no gen- eral American peace code to which all can have access. One may evclve. SEE WIDER TARIFF RANGE Trade experts foresee that “most favored mnation” relationships will be broadened. At present recipro- cal tariff agreements can be sha- Xen out of line by currency and quota juggling. Such antics don't sit well with the State Department, guardian of trade agreements. —et—— Didn’t Shoot Straight HOUSTON, Tex.—John E.

He was giving such a demonstra- tion recently and shot himself in the hip, the bullet ranging down- ward and coming out at his knee.
