Vincent became interested in the King crab, a large shell fish that reaches a spread of 6 feet or more. It is canned extensively by the Jap- anese, and constitutes almost wholly, the pack of Nippcn packers evepy year. Bocause the Dungeness crab, com- mon to most Pacific Northwest waters, is of not such value as a canning fish in comparison with the ,rosser King crab, the latter com- mands a much better market. Last year, Vincent experimented vith various k'nds of gear in dif- fercnt locations, finding it possible to obtain a regular supply of the rabs at aimost all times of the ar by fishing at different depths at differcnt seasons. This year, the King Crab Co., Vin- cenl’s cufit at Seldovia, will com= tinue its experimenting, feeling its way slowly, although the few dozen cases packed last year were well re- ceived by buyers. Dr. H. C. McMillan, who is known or his research on shellfish of the, Pacifi, has been studying the hab- its of King crab for many years. McMillen declares that the -Al- wwka King crab resources are ample to support an industry as large as ° that in the Orient, and declares there is no longer any doubt that they can be caught by Americans, continuously in substantial quantit- ios. He refers to the Japanese opera- tions off the Alaska coast as proof that development by floating can- neries is feasible, but says also that there are a number of places in the Westward where shore canner- ies could operate efficiently. g > - UNAMERICAN ACTIVITIES ARE PROBED NEW YORK, April 23.—Federal agents descended on New York's German-American district, Yorks ville, last night' to investigate the clash bétween members of the Gars man-American bund and American Legionnaires.
