PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1942. T F SEAL PELT SALES Division of Money Between U. S., Japan and Canada Follows Pribilof Slaughter. Br William L. Word.n Seattle, April 22 (Pi Yes terday they sold the pelt of Al the Seal; but Japan will have to wait a while for her IS percent of the proceed! or take it in bombi. Al is more exactly Alescanui, the fur teal; and the truth if that he may be part Japanese. In St. Louis yesterday, the United States government wild life service auctioned pelts taken by government hunters in the Pribilof islands last summer. The pelts, which Alescanus' relatives .formerly occupied, brought prices of $28 and up. Seals Nearly Con But thereby hangs a tale which goes back a ways. Sealing in the Pribilof islands was virtu ally unrestricted in the early days of United States' control over Alaska. The fur seals, which inhabited the rocky Isl ands by the millions, staggered underthe blows of the island sealers. Even worse, white men watch ed Indians putting out from the Washington and British Colum bia coasts in frail canoes to kill migrating seals at sea (usually slipping up on them while they were asleep in the waves). The white men aped the Indians and made a business of pelagic seal ing. Pelagic mans simply "open sea." The pelagic sealing Just about finished off Al. Where onca there had been something like 2.000,000 seals in the Pribtlofs each summer, there were by 1919 less than 125,000. Treaty Signed So the United States signed a treaty. It provided that pelagic sealing should be outlawed, that the U. S. should kill selected year-old males each summer in the U. S. owned Prlbilofs, and that the U. S. government should get 70 percent of the proceeds. Canada and Japan got IS percent each. The herd increased annually. Each year, while they migrated from the coast of California to the Alaskan islands, U. S. coast guard cutter went along. In an official statement, Jap anese scientists conveniently de clared that not all the Pribolof herd migrated south. Some of them, said the Tokyo professors, went to Japan and ate Japanese fish all winter. The Japanese government was delighted. The IBIS treaty, it said, was unfair. Just little more than a year ago, It served notice of abrigation. Japanese pelagic sealing boats were pre pared to sail. Slaughter Prepared This spring would have been the bad season. There seemed to be no great diplomatic hope of preventing the slaughter, altho the U. S. wildlife service had prepared a scientific expedition which expected to disprove the Japanese theory about where seals go when they're not home. The proof was to be involved and would have taken several years to prepare. The expedition would have sailed last Dec. 17 from Seattle. Only it did not. However, the sale of last year's rielts went nn vMtHav with the usual spirited bidding. The govern-, -nt has not said so, but presun.ably the proceeds were to be allotted on the 70 1515 principle. The only question remainii.g seemed to be how many planes or bombs .15 percent of All hide would buy. Little Girl Killed By "Unloaded" Gun Portland, April 22.

PAGE FIVE Not only are shortages of sugar and labor two major diffi culties bakers must surmount in their war-time effort, as pointed out by Governor Sprague at the recent conference of Pacific Northwest Bakers In Portland, but cost of a large number of ingredients has risen sharply in the past few months, according to William H. Fluhrer of the Fluhrer bakeries. Fluhrer said that cinnamon, which cost 19 cents a pound a year ago, now is 79 cents a pound, and that mace has leap ed from 30 cents a pound a year ago to $1.05 at present. Cara way, ground, has skyrocketed from 18 cents to $1.30 pound, and caraway seed, which cost 15 cents a pound a year ago, now is unavailable at any price, Fluhrer stated. Other increases noted by Fluhrer included cardamon, from 80 cents to $2.25 per pound; sesame seed, from six to 18 cents; almonds, from 41 cents to $1.10; peanuts, from seven and a half cents to 18 cents; cashews, from 20 to 35 cents and almond paste, from 30 cents to 64 cents. E Closing time for Clu.ifled Ad. 9 i. m. Too lata to Classify 13:30 Tacoma, Wash., April 21 OP) The 20-year suspended sen tence of Mrs. Elsie Roscorla, 23, former Corvallis, Ore., school teacher, was revoked late yester day by Superior Judge E. D. Hodge when she was convicted of passing worthless checks val ued at about $100. The original sentence was passed in the same court more than a year ago after Mrs. Ros coria, then Miss Elsie Buchli, held up and robbed the Riviera theater and was Immediately arrested by police. At the time, her story of fol lowing a soldier sweetheart here from Oregon and needing mon ey to return home persuaded the court to suspend the sen tence. About a month ago, the girl married a Fort Lewis soldier and began writing worthless checks, the largest of which was for flowers for her wedding, police records show. Crescent Fishermen Rescued From Sea Crescent City, Calif., April 22 iJP) Two fishermen who clung to their partially submerged fishing boat for more than six hours In the rough sea off the mouth of the Klamath river be fore help came, were recovering from cold and exposure today. The two were Arthur Hath away and Oscar McMillan of Crescent City. Their $8,000 craft heavily loaded with a record catch of crabs, sank from under neath them when it was swamp ed by a heavy sea Monday night. PASTE ONE ON ME San Diego, Calif., April 22 (J) Don Holmes passed out war stamps in place of cigars when his son was born there by starting a movement. Other fathers Holmes met at the hos pital adopted the idea, and he now is trying to enlist all Amer ican fathers in his scheme. The Grange Lake Crk Grange Lake Creek Grange held a supper before the meeting April 10 celebrating the 14th anni versary of this Grange. The Grange cake was baked by Ellyn Charley, using the colors of the Grange, blue and gold. We had several guests, one of them being L. E. Francis. 4-H club leader. His talk, on differ ent kinds of hay and their re spective food value, was greatly enjoyed. During Grange hour, presid ed over by Worthy Master Myr tle Charley, interesting reports were given by Reed Charley. Tom Stanley and Ellyn Charley. Worthy Lecturer Mabel Stan ley was unable to attend and Ellyn Charley acted as substi tute. There were seven charter members in attendance. All members are reminded to bring their written letters, to Clyde Grissom and Eldred Char ley, to Grange on Friday. Both boys are stationed at the same camp in Missouri. Nothing is more cheering to boys in service than news from home. Don't forget! Next meeting will be Friday, April 24. BABE RESUMES MOVIE Hollywood, April 22 JF) Just two weeks after he was stricken critically ill of pneu monia, Babe Ruth has returned to the movie lots to resume work in a picture portraying Lou Gehrig's life.
