A summary of. the meetings at San

secretary of the League of Nations.
''First The armaments cjmmlttec,
whlcji has been misrepresented in the

program. The actual powers of the

headings of Inquiry, recommendation and
the exercle of public opinion, j I
"The league's most definite I powers,
perhaps, are contained In Article I,
which provides that no near member
tnay be admitted to the league -until it J
accepts sucn regulations as may fce pre
scribed by the league with regard to its
, naval, military and air forces and arm
aments. The council may consider the
question . of the armanments of the
world, draw up what appears to be an
equitable basis of armaments and then
submit to the various nations. The
council has no power to Interfere op the
.question of national armaments, beyond
this form of recommendation.

BIG SALMON PACK
ON COLUMBIA DUE
TO UNUSUAL RUN
" By Jesse R. Blnmaa I
Astoria, Aug. 5.- The sprtn fish
ing season on the Columbia river
came to7 a close a noon Wednes
day, and estimates place the pack; at
approximately 67,O0O j caaes, which
la about 20 per cent greater than jfor

As the season comes to an end there
are,. large numbers of salmon in the
river and a few days more like the last
week would .increase them materially.
Instead of the season being a failure,
as was feared during the summer, tt has
proved to be one of the best In years.
The run of salmon the last two weeks
has been responsible for the big pack,
together with a fairly good run at the
opening of the season. : H
JIVCH OF HIGH G BADE :
The canned pack of the first grade
Chinook Is the largest It has been I In
years, the fish being an extraordinary
fine quality. i
The gill nets wilt do the best of any
class of gear in the river this year.
With ' a few exceptions the season has
been a failure for the seining grounds,
while the trollers ha.v fs.rd poorly.
The trappers also met with poor luck.
The principal res son that the pack of
pickled fish is no more this year Is due
to the fact that while the European
war 1a over, Germany, which In former
years was the principal: consumer of
that product, is not as yet receiving any
of the output. As a result local plants
packed no pickled fish this season, i
mo atjr paid , . : . j
It Is estimated that CI per cent of the
canned salmon on the river is packed in
what ts km Tit mm half eases of 24
pounds each, with the pack estimated at
697,000 cases. ' Anproxtmately 2S.2S7.800
pounds of raw fish were required to
make the pack. At the ruling price of 12
cents a pound, approximately $3,393,000
wa paid the fishermen on the Columbia
river for the season, which began May
It Is estimated that,! according to
present prices, the nack ef salmon and
pickled fish in the markets of the world la
worth approximately 17.500,000. t

The railroads as a matter of truth
were on crutches when1 the government
took them over,"
"When the mines are closed," Governor
Cox continued, "the miners have no
other opportunities of employment be
cause they are far removed from th In
dustrial centers and with the miner it is
not a-question of how much he receives
an hour or day, but for the year.
It is perfectly apparent that the labor
cost on the tonnage of uoaii has been high
and this has not been due. to the miners,
but to the condition of the railroads. The
government should be cooperative while
transporting lines are being rehabiiitat'
ed, but at the same time it must b in
sistent upon the enforcement of business

"No, it Is $40,000. You know the
Republicans have been ' mighty careless
