V. S. Pitts KUtlmates that 134I.OOO Potuuls of th- Fish Were Handl
ed by Hi Firm During Reason; Ha Tings Also Effected
This may sound a little "fishy,"
bat W, S. Fitts, fish and poultry
market proprietor, has gone ijiia
the Subject and vouches for the
tntfhfullness of the figures. J
Mr. Fitts recalls that the annual
smelt run is about over for the
year and bases his figures upon
the amount of fish handled by the
market. From January 15 1 to
April Z a total of 156,009 pounds
of the little fish was sold. ( .
. ; The fish average 10 to the
pound, making a total ot 12,480,
OOe fish. The average length! is
about 8 inches, and if all the
smelt sold, - -were placed head j to
tail in one long line this would
stretch 2363 miles. Private fisher
men have increased this amount
and Mr. Fitts estimates that about
25,000 of the fish have been used
in this district. j
Not only have the fish bfeen
caught in quantities, but residents
of the district served have bfeen
saved a small fortune. : Due to ithe
difference In prices between smelt
and fresh meat,, a saving of about
10 cents a pound is possible.
Using his original figures of 156,
000 pounds, Mr. Fitts estimates
that by eating smelt instead i of
meat, a total of $13,600 has been
saved." . 1 J ' J

' D. M. Sanson, the promoter, is
on his way to Los Angeles and will
return to Salem after a three-day
visit. At this time definite action
will be taken. ; j 1' ! j '
M. G. Gunderson, who attended
the conference from Silverton,
stated that the residents of his
community are enthusiastic about
the new industry. Leonard Gil
key secretary of the Albany Cham
ber of Commerce and Dr. S. Rob
nett, were present at the meeting.
They were glad to see Salem men
getting down to business. Albany
people are willing to do their
share in stimulating the Interest
in flax growing. i .
;. ... . .. Rating Is High -
The feeling is generally optimis
tic regarding the plan submitted
by Mr. Sanson 'and it is consider
ed the best one that Salem people
have ever been offered. Some con
sidered it the bat offer that could
be made, in view of the action of
Mr. Sanson1 in backing the propo
sition, with his own money. !
The rating that the R. G. Duin
company gave on the Dominion's
Linens, Ltd., of Toronto, is 1450,
000, which is a Very conservative
estimate, according to the opinion
of local capitalists who are famil
iar, with the ratings of the company.-
In addition, Mr. Sanson Is
president of 'another mill and is
vice-president ot a plant at Lock
port, which was opened in ISSA,
Just as soon as the definite

proposal will b given Salem resi
dents. I The sentiment I expressed
by the Albany 'people, who have
met Mr. Sanson is favorable and
many of the farmers ' are willing
to grow flax and to assist in every
way. ; jthis i fact has 1 1nfluenced

ALTITUDE TO WHICH
MAN IS ABLE TO FLY
WASHINGTON. March 28.
Flight surgeons of the 1 army air
service believe that man has about
reached the maximum flying speed
at which he cam suddenly change
direction, owing to the centrifugal
force exerted on the body its
effect on the blood.5 This speed is
placed) in the vicinity of 250 miles
an hour. The limit of speed on a
straightaway course, they say, can
probably be placed much higher
than is now mechanically possible,
but experience will have to write
the actual figure. The height

feet. . :: "1 - - :
This contention regarding the
maximum speed for turning, the
flight surgeons point out, is pre
dicted upon the experience of Lieu
tenant Alvin J. (Williams, ot the
navy, at the Pulitzer air races at
St. Louis in October. 1923, who
said he became practically uncon
scious, at turns of the triangular
course, when he rounded at 243.67
miles an hour.

craft; at right angles, the centrifu
gal force acting at right angles to
the new direction of travel and

the head toward the stomach, and
probably even to the legs, causes

Even when supplied vrith oxy
gen, the flight surgeons hold, an
aviator could not survive beyond a
height of 45,000; feet, under ordi
nary circumstances, becaase the

Between 23,000 and 25,000 feet
is the "upper limit of conscious

flight surgeons, and at higher alti
tudes oxygen is indispensible. On

in which the barometric pressure
were kept at a degree compatible
with life, would) It be possible to
ascend beyond the 45,000 limit,

made for disposing of the surplus

French' Designers Failed
To Grasp Amencan Theme
CHICAGO. April 4 The quick,
impulsive curve of the French art
nouveau style had ; Its origin, in
the American broom corn, asserted
Charles It. Richards, directors of
the American association of Muse
ums, speaking recently at the Art
institute of Chicago..
. "When the French nd Belgian
artists of the eighties, aearching
for a new style of art, turned to
the curved line of nature, a young
lad of 17 in Dayton, Ohio, named
E. ' Colonna, was a publishing a
little book called 'An Essay on
Broom Corn',' Mr. Richards said.
"The book, dated 1887, consisted
first of a naturalistic drawing of
the broom corn, and then a Berles
of abstract designs utilizing its
curves. . i
Colonna later went to Parii
and eventually Joined the ParU
group which was developing the
art nouveau style. His furniture
and jewelry appeared in. the Paris
exposition of 1900, and "were so
impressive that photographs were
made.' When I Was visiting a
prominent art official in Pari3 I
noticed Ja his offices some of
Colonna's furniture. He admired
itff artistic worth and preserved
It, though , the art nouveau style
is now dead."
The art nouveau style In the
hand of great designers like Col
onna has a lartlng artistic value,
according to Profesaor Richards.
The reason that it failed as a
great art movement was that the
curve on which it was based was
too subtle an art form and could
only be handled with success by
genius. When It was taken up by
the French manufacturers they
did not call in the best designers,
with the result that the curve was"
used in all sorts of exaggerated
and bizarre ways and the style was
soon run out;
