Wallace Likely To

York, another potential GOP can
didate, comparing him with Mr.
Truman.
“I hesitate to say whether
Dewey is a watered-down version
of Truman or the President is a
watered-down version of Dew; y,"
he said.
Some Democrats commented
privately that if Wallace hadn’ al
ready made up his mind to bol\
he hardly would go around roak
ing such statements.
Wallace’s left-handed endorse
ment was publicly greeted only
with laughter in the Taft camp.
Taft, an announced candidate
for the GOP nomination, was si

cations his friends would have
been better pleased if Wallace had
picked some one else as his favor

Salmon Runs
Develop In B. C.
NEW WESTMINSTER, B. C. (.4*1
Field investigators of the Interna
tional Pacific Salmon commission
have reported that vast salmon
runs, reminiscent of those which
built up a $30,000,000 canning in
dustry in British Columbia before
the first world war, again were
massing in the Fraser River.
In the Adams River section
alone, it was estimated that 200,000
fi*h have spawned, double the
number reaching the seeding
grounds in the whole Fraser river
system four years ago.
“Sockeye salmon in numbers
have reached nearly every section
of the 9.000 square mile watershed
which indicates huge runs in 1950
and 1951” one investigator said.
He added that this was indicative
of the success of the $1,000,000
Hell’s Gate project and other fish
lad ler installations along the
: iver, designed to aid fish over
blockades caused by railway con
struction slides years ago.
