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.

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.

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.
