FCLITICII5 REFORM !
R1N1SI THE SENATE:
_
WASHINGTON, Jan., 8, (JP)—The
coalition of democratic and repub
licans reformed their lines in the
senate in the first anniversary of
the initiation of the tariff contro
versary and defeated an attempt to
increase from 50 to 60 percent the
duty on woven silk fabrics. This
left the rates as an existing law
and in the house bill.
At Nenana, John Smith was given
a jury trial in the commissioner’s
court on a charge preferred by
Warden White, in which it was al
leged the defendant had engaged in
trapping before the season opened.
The verdict was guilty; passing of
sentence was deferred.
SHIRK SKIN’S 11
FOUND 18. FISHERIES
WASHINGTON, Jan., 9, (/P)—The
commercial use of shark leather
will change what is now considered
a menace to the fishing industry
into one of its chief assets, accord
ing to an oral statement by the
Deputy Commissioner, Lewis Rad
cliff, of the Bureau of Fisheries, re
cently. Not only is the skin very
valuable but the fin, liver and oth
er parts of the shark have a very
high commercial value he added.
During the past 10 years the Bu
reau has been trying to promote the
use of the shark leather and re
markable progress has been made,
it was stated, for it was found by
comparison that shark leather was
actually as durable as the highest
grade calfskin and could not be
successfully imitated. Instead of
the fisherman killing and throwing
the carcasses of the sharks back
into the water, they are now realiz
ing that these fish have a value as
high as most fish and with contin
ued research work will prove even
more valuable than edible fish, it
was said.
Shark livers contain an oil that is
valuable and is considered in many
quarters as useful as cod liver oil.
The amount of oil contained in the
livers varies from 18 to 20 pounds
the deputy commissioner said.
Shark fins are an oriental delica
cy and sell as high as $1 a pound,
many thousands of pounds being
shipped thru the ports on the west
coast, he pointed out.
uiie ui liin mimes oi me maustry
is that no necessary equipment be
placed aboard ships as fishermen
already have the paraphernalia and
in many instances only the crudest
kind is used. Mr. Radcliff said. The
present catch at Greenland is more
than 32,000 sharks annually and
only simple equipment is used, it
was shown.
Novelties obtained from other
part ' of sharks such as the teeth
for souvenir's and the backbone for
walking canes, it was said, all tend
to make the shark a highly valua
ble catch commercially.
