FISHERIES MEETING
Seattle in Its Dilemma.
EXPENSE IS HELD WASTE
l. v. l. m. I Utility Specialist Puid
$8254 to Tell Public Facts
It Already Knows.
PUGET SOUND BUREAU. Seattle,
Wash.. Dec. 14 (Special.) The re
port of Peter Witt, Cleveland traction
expert, on Seattle's municipal street
railway system, made at a cost of
$8254 to the city, contains no recom
mendation of any Importance that had
not previously been made to the
mayor and city council by local men
i connected with the street, rail-way de
partment. This seems to he the censensus of
opinion among city officials after
they have had time to analyze in de
tail the report made by the distin
guished and expensive easterner.
What he had to say about the pur
chase of the lines and the terms on
which they were taken over was. of
course, a matter of local history fa
miliar to all. His condemnation of
euitiquated equipment and rolling
stock, his recommendations as to ex
tensions, reroutings, abandonment of
certain lines, and reduction of the
number of employes, are practically
all to be found in the files at the city
1)all, bearing much earlier dates and
the signatures of local officials.
Expease Held Unnecessary.
One of the reasons on which Mayor
Caldwell based his objection to the
employment of Mr. Witt for the in
Veetlgation was that the city had
already received many sound and val
uable recommendations for better
ments and ultimate economies which
could not be acted upon for lack of
funds.
Unable, on this account, to proceed
with the things that everyone ad
mitted should be done, the mayor
could see no reason for bringing on
an outside expert who could scarcely
fall to make the same suggestions.
Many of the changes suggested In
Witt's report are of record at the
city hall In reports filed during 1S19
and the early part of 1920 by Thomas
F. Murphlne, who served as superin
tendent of utilities under ex-Mayors
fHanson and Fitzgerald. The same
recommendations are renewed and
others added thereto In reports by
W. Henderson, superintendent of
street railways under Mayor Cald
well. The stumbling block to action
has always been the lack of money
The street railway system itself could
stand no further load of bonded debt,
and the courts. In passing upon the
suit brought by S. B. Asia and 13
other taxpayers, have held that no
money raised by general taxation can
be used for street railway purposes.
Expert Backs Ip Seattle Man.
Peter Witt's report sanctions vlr
tually all of Murphine's and Hender
J son's recommendations or, rather,
,' they are adopted as his own. He
points the way, as they did, to many
I economies; but the first step on the
way is to raise a lot of money and
spend it. Councilmen who Insisted on
Mr. Witt's employment apparently
expected the word of a disinterested
outside expert to carry greater
- weight than that of men on the
ground. But even though it may, Mr.
Witt stops short of telling where the
money is to come from to do the
things that he says should be done.
; Unless some Seattle genius can solve
this primary part of the problem, the
: Witt report will probably go to file
' to remain with those of Murphlne and
Henderson, and the employment of
the Cleveland expert will stand under
the head of unfinished business.

RECLAMATION PLAN UP
Proposal for Clearing Logged Land
Made at Aberdeen.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Dec. 14. (Spe
blal.) Phil S. Locke, formerly repre
sentative In the state legislature for
, this district, yesterday submitted a
' plan to the Grays Harbor Realty
Board for the development and utili
zation of logged lands of the coun
ty. The plan provides for the or
ganization of a stock company to
take over ownership of tracts of land
throughout the county and to Im
prove them and sell them.
The owners of the land taken over
under the plan would be given pre
ferred stock in the company to the
amount of the value of the land,
while the real estate agents would
be given common stock to the
amount of money spent in the im
provement of the lands. Preferred
stock is to be retired from current
Income until fully ,paid; common
stock to become sole owner upon pay
ment to original owners of their land

WASHINGTON STATE COLLEGE.
Pullman, Dec. 14. (Special.) How he
spent 5,000,000 rubles in 15 days, for
nothing more than personal expendi
tures, was part of Dr. Sherman L.
Divine's address to students yesterday
morning on conditions in Soviet
Russia. Dr. Divine visited Russia as
head of the near east relief with the
first official American group to view
that stricken country since the estab
lishment of the soviet regime. He
believes that the future of Russia de
pends upon a natural leader who will
rise up from among the common peo
ple of the country, and that until
such a leader Is found Russia will
continue in its present state of eco
nomic and financial paralysis.
"I know it to be a fact that there
are no factories operating in southern
Russia." declared Dr. Divine, "and I
am informed by reliable authority
that the same condition exists in the
northern part of the pountry. In addl
tion to the 5,000,000 rubles I spent
during 15 days of visiting I purchased
a quarter of a million of this money
for $1.75 American cash and used the
bills for souvenirs. Lenlne and Trotsky
have recently decided to print Russian
money In three denominations, one,

because no hearing was held on the
case.
PUGET SOUND BUREAU, Seattle.
Wash., Dec. 14. (Special.) On the
question oi saving the remains of the
tockeye salmon industry on Puget
sound and the Fraser river the inter
national fisheries conference held at
Vancouver. B. C, struck the rocks of
disagreement and adjourned tonight
without action. This great Industry
which, for lack of protection, dropped
in productive value from $10,000.1)00
in 1913 to approximately $1,500,000
this year will run on down to the
point of extinction. In the opinion of
experts, for lack of any plan of re
habilitation.
Parse Seining Attacked.
The Vancouver conference was be
tween the fisheries officials of the
Dominion of Canada and the fisheries
board of the state of Washington. The
two-day session adjurned today. Un
the sockeye question the Canadians
were ready for action. They demand
ed the prohibition of purse seining
and the more stringent regulation of
and te more stringent reglation of
traps on Puget sound.
The Washington representatives
pointed out that the state law was
now sufficient for the regulation of
traos but refused to prohibit purse
seining. Both sides agreed that if
the sockeye run is to be preserved
and rehabilitated there must be a
complete cessation of fishing for a
time.
They also agreed that it would be
necessary to prohibit sockeye fishing
for at least five years to achieve re
sults. But the Canadian authorities
Insisted on an agreement providing
that when fishing should be resumed
at the end of the five-year closed
period It must be without the us; of
purse seines in sockeye waters, hold
ing that the sacrifices of a long
closed would not be worth while if
means of destruction were to be re
employed as soon as the season ended.
The Washington commissioners held
that they could not bind the hands of
those who might be in control of state
fisheries at the end of five years.
Tentative Agreements Reached.
Tentative agreements were reached
for the protection of Immature sal
mon in the coastal waters of the
west coast; for Investigation of the
proposal to prohibit fishing within
the three-mile limit off Vancouver
island as is done off the cotst of
Washington; to attempt to establish
humpback salmon runs every year in
Puget sound and Fraser river waters
and to bring eggs from other points
in British Columbia and Alaska to
effect this; to bring sockeye eggs
also from other points to augment
this species in the Fraser river; for
a general biological survey of FraserJ
river and Washington waters to as
certain the possible extent of sockeye
propagation, and finally to hold an
other conference later for the pur
pose of regulating humpback fishing,
which with the diminution of the
sockeye runs is being overworked to
the same sort of a finflsh.
The Canadian authorities stated
that they were prepared to accept a
proposition looking to financial aid
from Washington in the operation of
Canadian hatcheries in the matured
output of which the people on both
sides of the lines have a common Interest.

CHICAGO. Dec. 14. (By the Associat
ed Press.) Declaring that striking
house workers are standing firm
against what they term an "arbitrary
reduction of wages" and denying
statements by the big five packers
that operations in Chicago are nearly
normal, strike leaders in a statement
tonight asserted that "if the strike Is
to be a contest of endurance. It will
run for months and guerrilla warfare.
If that term can be used, can be ex
pected in every packing house center
throughout the country."
The statement was given to Secre
tary of Labor Davis over the signa
ture of C. J. Hayes, presldest. and
Dennis Lane, secretary, of the Amal
gamated Meat Cutters and Butcher
Workmen of North America. The sec
rotary asked the strike leaders for a
statement.
Conditions Are Named.
Two conditions on which they said
the strike can be settled were named
by the union:
First That the packers rescind the
wage reduction put into effect No
vember 28.
Second That the packers agree to
submit the question of wage reduc
tions to arbitration. and restore the
former wage pendfng the arbitration
proceedings. The statement declared
that at no time have the representa
tives of the "industrial relation plan,'
by which the packers claim to have
negotiated the reduction with plant
assemblies, conferred with their fel
low workers.
"The packers' so-called 'Industrial
relation plan' has never called a meet
ing of the workers in any depart
ment of the packing plants," the
statement continues.
"Despite the packers' statements to
the contrary, the plants of Armour,
Swift, Morris, Wilson and Cudahy
have been practically closed since De
cember 5. Up to date the plants in
Chicago have not killed more than 25
per cent of their normal killing. The
packers have made strenuous efforts
to procure strike breakers. Despite
the large army of unemployed they
have not been very successful.
Workers Are Incensed.
"Our union has exertted every ef
fort to prevent disturbances. Facts
are-however, that the men and women
workers, together' with ttheir depend
ents, are so incensed and aroused at
the action of the packers arbitrarily
reducing wages prior to the holidays
that it is difficult for any agency to
maintain peace."
"Our operations have been proceed
ing almost normal and are rapidly im
proving," an Armour official said.
"Men are coming back in drove. We
are dealing directly with our men,
having dealt with them in the past
Since the formation of the plant rep
resentation plan we have dealt
tthrough it on an open and frank
bassi and will continue to do all our
dealings with them directly.
"In Chicago you could not tell there
is a strike. At St. Paul, where we
were hit the hardest, the strlks Is
practically broken and the plants are
operating almost 100 per cent.
"So far as the tripartite agreement
between the government the packers
and the union is concerned, It expired
automatically and with the consent
of the three partleev"
