‘M COMPANIES
CONSOLIDATED
WITH PIONEER
President G. P. Halferty has sent
the Daily Times a card announcing
^he consolidation of the Sea Beach
Packing Works and the Pacific Fish
eries and Packing Company, operat
ing in Aberdeen, Wash., into the Pio
neer Packing Company, with a clam
and salmon cannerey at Cordova. The
4 growth of the business made this con
solidation necessary to better use their
combined facilities toward increased
production and a wider distribution of
their products.
Mr. Halferty furnishes the Times
with the following interesting history
of his business career:
*
“I had a large family and no money,
’way back in 1894.
V “I fcommenced packing razor clams.
This was a long time ago. Yes, over
25 years. There was no established
process or method to follow, and the
canning of foods had only just com
menced. Consequently my progress
was slow. One hundred caans a day
was considered a big output. Myself
and sons would dig the clams and
then the following day can them. When
sufficient goods were ready for mar
ket I would peddle them at Astoria,
^bne can at a time. This was contin
ued for about two years. Truly those
were pioneering days, and we did not
enjoy many luxuries. The old sol
dered type cans were used.
‘‘The business grew because I packed
a good article, and * the demand in
creased, and so we continued year to
yjiar, increasing or not, the output in
accordance with the demand. During
all these many years our goods have
been recognized as “the best on the
market.’’
“In 1902 we came to Grays Harbor.
In 1907 my sons took charge of the
business. It continued to grow. Ad
ditional canneries were added until
now four plants are operated, with an
other contemplated. The largest can
nery is located at Cordova, Alaska.
“Three separate corporations were
organized, but these times of high cost
it seemed best to consolidate them all
Into one, the Pioneer Packing Com
pany. This will enable us to increase
the efficiency of our organization, and
•the combined facilities under the one
company insures a wider distribution
of products.
“This process does away with the
S^i Beach Packing Works as a com
pany, but it will not change the policy
followed for so many years, and I as
sure you ‘Pioneer’ minced sea clams

BROOKLYN, Jan. 19 (by Associated
Press).—Victor Lipponenn, a farmer
while insane through grief over the
death of his baby, killed three persons
with an ax yesterday and wounded two
others, ahd then hanged himself.
The wife of the murderer, although
wounded, escaped death by rolling un
der a bed.
NEW RULES FOR BOXERS
MAY NOT BE AVCEPTED
NEW YORK, Jan. 19 (by Associated
Press).—American boxing enthusi
asts are awaiting with interest the
outcome of the meeting of the inter
national Boxing Union, to be held in
Paris on February 5. Unless there is
an eleventh hour shift in sentiment,
the United States will not be repre
sented formally, if at all. As a con
sequence it is doubtful if any of the
amateur organizations of this coun
try or the professional promoters will
feel obligated to observe regulations
or suggestions which may arise from
such conference.
As composed at the present time,
the union consists of French, English,
Swiss and Belgian boxing organiza
tions or individuals, who, under the
initiative of the French, have been
working upon an international asso
ciation plan since 1910, when the
French boxing federation attempted to
convene an international conference
to discuss the many crude angles of
the glove game. Neither the English
nq^ American authorities showed any
enthusiasm.
CATHOLIC SOCIETIES
FIGHTING BOLSHEVISM
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 19 (by Associ
ated Press).—One hundred and forty
five Holy Name Societies of the Ro
man Catholic church in the Pittsburgh
district have launched a campaign to
stop the spread of Bolshevism among
wage earners and to further American
ization. Literature intended to estab
lish closer relations between capital
and labor is being distributed by the
organization.
Rev. Claude Leary, Dominican monk
and a leader in the campaign, declared
that Bolshevism and Socialism could
be handled, but that problems con
fronted by capital and labor must be
definitely settled to bring peace to the
world.

New Glands Start Paroled Convict on His Travels
CAN FRANCISCO.—Does the new interstitial gland operation work? Well,
in the case of James Thompson, late of the San Quentin penitentiary of
this state, the prison authorities are ready to admit it worked all too well.
Thompson was the first of the several
prisoners here for whose glands those ,..p r(yr « MP
of hanged slayers have been substi- Wl
tuted. He was not old, but an injury PFP NOW— ~
to the interstitial glands in his youth
had retarded his mental development.
When Thompson was sent to San
Quentin, in 1918, for burglary, he was
not remarkable for his alert intellect,
but he quickly won the admiration of
the guards by his tractability and obe
dience to discipline.
The operation was performed, and
showed immediate results. Thompson was no longer the simple, stupid
burglar he had been. He began to frequent the prison library, and to acquire
the rudiments of an education. As for his conduct, it became 'better than
ever—so good, in fact, that he finally won a parole.
That was two months ago. When it developed the released prisoner had
not reported on his regular day, according to parole customs, officers went in
search of him.
“Mr. Thompson?” they were told at the rooming place.where he had lived.
“Why, he's gone to South America—at least that’s what he said.
“ ‘This United States doesn’t give a man a chance,’ he said. ‘I want to get
out somewhere where I can pull off something big.’ So he skipped, and we’ve
got an idea he’ll be gone a long while.”
College Man Proves the Better Mixer in
Dealing With French People
—————■— " *
By MRS. JOHN CORBIN, French Red Cross
A lasting impression of my experiences in France is the value of a
good education in cementing friendly relations between peoples of such
different culture and background as the French and the Americans.
It so happens that the men from our colleges and universities showed
almost without exception an adaptability of environment, a capacity for
understanding a different viewpoint and an easy resourcefulness in turn
ing their knowledge into sincerer and more cordial relationships with' a
foreign people that proved the value of education. They were the Ameri
cans who were equipped to show without superficial friction and foolish
misunderstandings the real regard which America has for France and
the true feelings which underlay our support of the allies’ cause. In
short, the college man proved himself to be the better mixer.
The war is now over and all but a comparative handful of Americans
are back from abroad, but the world has changed and we must be able to
mix in international affairs as cosmopolitans. If we are to remain a vital
force we must improve our technique in meeting and living with other
people by means of better education and more of it.

Military Training Is Essential to the Nation’s
Welfare and Security
By CARDINAL GIBBONS, Archbishop of Baltimore
\ m i --- mi - ________________mmm——
I am convinced that some military training for
the young men of our country is essential for the wel
fare and security of the nation. In the recent war we
bad the trained armies of our allies to lean upon until
our soldiers were prepared for the battlefield. We can
not always depend upon such a favorable circumstance
in the event that we are drawn into war again. The
discipline which the young men will acquire will de
velop them morally and physically. The regular hours
of rising and retiring, taking of simple and nourishing
food, and the outdoor exercise cannot fail to improve
their general health.
Another advantage of the discipline is to instill
into them a spirit of obedience to lawful authority, a virtue which we have
seen to be frequently disregarded in our land of freedom. It will teach
them that there is a dignity associated with obedience which has been too
often overlooked and that in obeying their lawful superiors, they are ren
dering obedience to God, from whom all authority comes.
It cannot be said that such preparation will make for war. I believe
that it will make for peace, since nations knowing our preparedness will
of war. _
