A cx-.dle or trough, constructed by
tbe Nelson hatchery staff fro_n

for holding large aalmon without
Injury during the "stripping process." ls to be tried out at tbe

The big fish of great weight are
so powerful that lt I* very difficult

In making use of the new Invention, tbe fish will be guided Into
the cradle, and the narrow sides
will prevent lt from threshing about

when lifted out of the water. If
this Is successful, tbe big fish wlll

Pass Council; Council Threatens Sue Tradesmen
SOUTH SLOCAN, B. C, Peb. 17—
"Tbat unemployment insurance In
panada ls practicable," was critically
questioned when speakers from Nel.
son successfully upheld the negative
of that resolution ln a debate wltb
local forensic talent at South Slocan,
Monday, Feb. 13.
An Initial speaker for tbe affirmative, Wilfred Lee argued that unemployment was 'here to stay' and that
the victims of this economic malady
must be provided for. He showed tbat
even ln good times tbe worker's Income was Insufficient to allow him
to bear the risk of unemployment
himself. The spresdlng of' tbat rlak
by means of insurance was the only
logical anl practicable solution, tbe
speaker thought.
Elsie Oananer, also supporting the
affirmative, gave a detailed description of the unemployment insurance
now ln foroe tn 'England and suggested tbat with certain modifications
tbls system could be satisfactorily
applied ln Canada. Charlie Bland,
final speaker In favour of unemployment Insurance, pointed out that industrial firms Insured their capital
by setting aside part of tbeir profits
aa a sinking fund. He thought tbat
theae profits might also be used to
furnish protection for the human element of production—labor. Tbls
oould be effeoted In a scheme of unemployment Insurance to which both
employer and employee contributed.
Speakers from Nelson were: the
Misses Peggy Barclay and Leslie
Praser, and Leo Oananer. Mlss Barclay spoke first for the negative and
emphaalxed tbe demoralising psychological effect which the introduction
of unemployment insurance would
bring about. She Illustrated her
points by reference to tbe English
system of 'dole' which sbe character,
.ned as a complete failure.
Following Miss Barclay, Leslie
Praser stressed the fact that half
tbe population of Oanada was composed of farmers. These she said
would have to contribute to any
system of state Insurance and yet,
since tbey were never unemp.-yed,
the could not hope to gain any bea-
eflts from the system.
Leo Gansner wound up the case
for the negative by presenting an
array of practical difficulties ln the
way of un employment Insurance ln
Car.r.da. These he ssld, proved beyond dlsput« thst tbe Idea was Impracticable.

Between 30 snd 50 husky brown
rats—of the invading rat army tbat
has overrun the Nelson waterfront
reoently—bit the dust In the provincial Jail In a two-day extermination
drive that Deputy warden A. T.
Stephenson completed Thursday. Tha
officer started ln with traps, but
after half a doeen rodents had
passed out by that route tbere waa
nothing more doing, and so resort
was made to poison.
The first killed was a brown monster that wu trapped, but wu too
large for the trap to kill. The Jail
cat wu called In to finish It, supposedly a Job of a couple of seconds, but the big rodent put up a
battle that showed it would bave
been tbe cat's muter ln an equal
fight.
It wu In the Jail storeroom, In
tbe former women's wing, beneath
tbe divisional office, where flrea are
kept, that tbe rats appeared, and
for weeks there bu been intermittent warfare, with the Invaders be-
Ing cleaned out a number of times.
tf tbeir latest sally, the deputy
warden saw eight or nine of them
In tbe premises at one time.
Por their part, the rats ate tbe
leather backing off a number of
old record books, sicrlfied the asbestos covering on tbe steam pipes,
and even, lt ls stated, dug up and
broke up ancient cracked, cement
flooring and piled up tbe pieces. It
ls estimated tbey have done 630
damage.
All through the wholesale section
of the waterfront tbe rats are becoming an acute nuisance, and a
general warfare is being waged on
them, "
It Is said that ln almost any
warehouse basement a flashlight introduced at night wlll show rodents
vanishing in all directions.

Scholastic Staff Not tn Utttt
Questions of the efficiency of the junior high
school ss s junior high or of the teachers aa teachers
are not st issue.
It is generally admitted thst the junior high school,
regarded solely ss s junior high school, is one hundred
per cent It has in H. McArthur a man who ia regarded
by those best qualified to judge ss beyond question the
leading authority on junior high schools in British
Columbia. Nor is the ability of other members of the
staff of the junior high school sa junior high school
teachers in question.
The question st issue arises out of the fact that
school expenditures hsve become grester than can be
met, and thst the junior high school in Nelson, as a
part of our local educational system, hss not performed the functions thst its proponents believed it would
perform when it wss established.
It hss not reduced costs of education in Nelson.
It hss Increased them. It has increased the total ex.
penditure, it hss increased the average cost per pupil
per yesr, snd it hss increased the per capita burden
on the taxpayers.
Looked st purely as s single unit, it hss not fail-
ed; looked st as pert of whst should be a homogeneous
snd smoothly snd economically operated educational
system, the junior high has failed.
It does not fit in perfectly with the rest of the
system, a^d great as may be its merits in itself, it is
too expensive s luxury for the tax-payers of Nelson
to continue to experiment with.
Only eight cities in British Columbia have attached the junior high plan to their basic educational system.
Nelson should return to the general education system
of elementary and high schools which is operating successfully snd in nearly sll cases more economically in
other municipalities in British Columbia.
Let it be repeated with emphasis that the issue is
not the abilities of principal or teachers. That question
does not enter into the matter.
The issue is whether we should drop the junior high,
which is a luxury, and not an educational necessity, and
revert to the plan which is working in 60 or so municipal-
i ties in British Columbia. If we got into line educationally
with the majority of British Columbia cities, we could
close the high school, u_e the Trafalgar building for
high school purposes, use vacant rooms in Central and
Hume schools for grades 7 and 8, move Mr. Rogers to
Trafalgar school, Mr. McArthur to Central school, Mr.
Spsrks to Hume school, snd appoint Mr. Stallwood to his
former position of vice-principal of the Hume school. We
would save some thousands in salaries, in addition to
the 8% cut, snd we would ssve virtually all cost of maintaining the present high school building.
The Lighthouse at St, Dunstan's
At the inner circle. Regent's Park, London, N.W.I.,
is the headquarters of St. Dunstan's, which seventeen
years ago came into being to meet one of the most poignant needs occasioned by the War, that of blinded sol-
-Hers. It owes its initiation and its tradition of courageous service to the late Sir Arthur Pearson, himself
a blinded man. Every year its reporta have been such
as to hearten mankind, not only the sightless, but those
who have felt other wounds of the struggle of life. The
last report, sent out under the chairmanship of Captain
Ian Fraser, is no exception.
Since the Armistice, nine hundred men, overtaken
by blindness as the result of war injuries, have entered
the hostel, thirty-three of these as recently as last year.
Thirty-one have died. Altogether, counting the families of these men, there are seven thousand whose lives
centre about St Dunstan's.
The report is given over to the success these blinded
men are making of their lives. "St. Dunstan's," the report reminds us "took these men in the first shock of
their blindness; gave them hope, ambition and self-
respect; building always on the great courage which
they brought with them even in their helplessness."
Stories are told of the way which these men are
adjusting themselves and the efforts they are making
in trades, handicrafts and fhe like. Always St. Dunstan's
stands as s friend ready to help. Enlightening slso sre
the paragraphs which tell of the interest taken in sport
sod especially of the world which broadcasting of gsmes
has opened up. St Dunstan's has not only to its credit
the wonderful story of its own graduates, but also that
ft has helped the blinded sll over the world by showing
whst csn be d"ne.  It hss become a verit»We l'^Vh-vuse.
We admire the courage of these men snd women
who fly solo into the forgotten corners of the earth, but
we fail to see Just what they hope to accomplish.

We wish to draw your attention

of this free country as we always

We are ln receipt of the very aad

Verigin, for deportation, without
having been given an opportunity
of an interview with his aged moth-
hls dear wife and his only
grandson, for the purpose of bidding
them farewell.
We aa Canadians feel lt our duty
to Inform you that we are'grieved
ln your use of such swift snd secret
tactics and feel that such actions
were unwarranted, ln this day and

th« dark ages when the authorities
were a law unto themae.ves, bought
and aold slaves without any feeling
of a sense of Justice and love of

Jails or sent them Into forlorn

Such methods are not employed
In our enlightened 20th century.
They are looked upon as abhorrent,
for like many other countries, Canada considers Itself as being highly

INSURANCE FOR THE
UNEMPLOYED IS NOT
CURE OR A REMEDY
To the editor of The Nelson Dally
News;
Six—I am very sorry to not* that
your correspondent, Vernon Chapman appears to h.ve gathered the
wholly erroneous impression, that I
am not profoundly and sincerely
sympathetic toward all who are feeling this depression so acutely. On
the contrary, I have a very personal
Interest In any move that wll:
remedy present conditions anl alleviate the Intolerable suffering that
now exists, fcr, I am like Bruin-
denned up and living on last sua
mer's fat.
During my enforced Idleness, ■ I
have had the opportunity of apply
Ing the acid test to many of the
pleasant and paln.ess palliatives
that have been prescribed, and have
reluctantly been foroed to the inevitable conclusion that unemployment Insurance, whether contributory or otherwise, la not a cure nor
even a good quaok remedy. If ou.h
a acheme were inaugurated now,
the benefits thereof would accurc
to thoae who are now gainfully employed but mijht be laid off later.
With emp.oymsnt 8t its lowest' chit Besots reasonable to suppose tha.
those now e r ployed .re the key
men, who by reason of supe..:.
sklll and experience, seniority, dependability or other considerations
are reasonably secure ln their posl
tions. To ask, them to contribute to
"muscle ln" on the job and furnish
cheap strike Insurance for the employer.
The scheme Is Objectionable on
the ground that It cannot be worked out on an actuarial basis and
ls inherently wrong, Inasmuch as It
creates and artificial sense of security
that delays a proper readjustment
of the supply' of labor to meet the
dexand. It would Inevitably be Inapplicable to the very classes ol
labor tbat are the .newt subject to
violent.fluctuations of demand. It
certainly would never take ln tbe
building trades, construction workers, seasonal workers or unskil ed
labor, lf It were not to become a
general   dole.
Our great trouble ln the west. Is
that for the put 40 years, we have'
been living indirectly and directly
off the construction of vast undertakings that were financed on borrowed money. We have reached the
saturation point ln publlo and private Improvements, and we cannot
borrow any more and must henceforth live within our Income. The
hitter truth Is that thoee who have
hitherto Mtted from ona big construction Job to another, must readjust themselves voluntarily or
become public charges and await
the day when we wlll all be on
relief together. As I see lt, the only
cure for unemployment is to quit
creating a surplus of labor by excessive competition for the Job,
just as the cun for the ooffee
surplus in Brazil ls not dumping It
in the sea (which Mr. Chapman
unjustly hints I would like to do
with surplus labor) but tn planting
the surplus acreage • to more sale-
ab-e crops.
Mr. Chapman asks lf I would accept health Insurance, compensation
for in)ury or a superannuation.
Most emphatically, air, I would and
willingly, for It would be my right
lf I compiled with the usual conditions. I might even accept uneai-
ploymint Insurance, not as a right,
At ths table where ths defense
succeeded. East led a Diamond which
dummy won with ths Aee; than
since at least one Spade trick must
later, Declarer
determined to give lt away at onoe.
South led a amall Spade which Weat
won wltb ths Ten.
Now Wast, counting tbe hand,
appreciates that the Declarer can
take three Diamond trlcka (unless
North held tbe King, the Queen
wou'd hava been finessed); and also
that doubtless he how baa four
Spade tricks established and undoubtedly aome strength ln Clubs.
The only possibility ot defeating the
contract lies In the taking of four
Heart tricks by West; a feat whloh
can   be   aooompliahed   lf   East   Is
be on the bread Una, for I would
then have no Illusions about rights.
As to health insurance, lt is practically on an actuarial b-eis,andone
pays reasonably near the cost of
the risk. Even health Insurance
pays no benefits for oertaln avoidable disabilities and lt Is not Impossible thftt an unemployed Insurance board might rule that an
unemployed tradesman was not eligible for benefits, lf a pick aad shovel
job were available. Aa to compensation anl superannuation, they art
not ln the aame category at all.
Mr. Chapman sounds a cheery
note when he saya people have got
over being foolish and that tbs
employer 1* now a swell guy. It
waa fashionable a few ysars ago
for the boys to grind their teeth
to the rums in lashing tho-usslves
Into a fins frenzy sbout wage-slavery, and with tears in their eyas as
big as pumpkins, sing out ot tbe
red song book.
Ye prisoners of starvation
Arise and break your chains.
Now that tbs constant nightmare
of unemployment has become a
day-mare too, bare Is tbs team of
plugs for Mlaa Prustrated's covered
w:gon. in my opinion, that Is tba
only way out. Freight trains get to
nowhere ia particular, too soon.

WHY   CROWDED   ROOM   CAUSES
TROUBLE
As students we %rere taught that
each person ln a achool room needed
1000 cubic feet of air apace, and
that the air ln the room should
be changed three times an hour.
We were taught also that the
carbon dioxide that was breathed
out of the lungs was Injurious, and
that the "organic particles" breathed
out were very dangerous and were
responsible for the headaches and
tired feeling which occurred due
to remaining ln an unventllated
room.
A few years ago it was shown
that ventilation ls not a matter of
so much space for each individual,
but that If the air in the room ls
kept moving then tbe amount of
space for each person ls not important.
It was found also that It ls not
the carbon dioxide, nor the waste
orgr nle particles from ths lungs
that causes hecdr.;hes and tiredness, but the incrc^wd (.mount of
mots'.ure ln tho rocm. The water
vapor ln ^he air from the lun;..
accumulates to such an extent ln
thc room', that the body cant
regulate properly the amount of
heat  lt  needs  to  throw  off,  hence

NEW YORK LIST
CLOSES HIGHER
flurry in Equities Liable
to Benefit by Prohibition Change
By JOHN L. COOLEY
Associated   Preii   Financial   Wftter
NEW TOBK, Feb. 17—Stocks felt
t little better today and clowd
higher for tbe first time tbla week.
A speculative flurry ln equities of
companies manufacturing producta
tbat might stand to benefit by prohibition change and a boost for the
rail* provided sufficient leverage to
bring a general assortment of fractional to 3 point net gains. Volume
totalled only 653,795 shares.
Stocks apparently looked with
greater equanimity on aelllng of
American dollars, even though aome
foreign monies* reached quotations
that would make profitable gold exports from the United States. Bankers attributed the sharp reversal ln
trend to European alarm over the
attempted assassination of Presidentelect Roosevelt.

If lt waant' for	
Fred Iferkle, the old New York
Giant first baseman, second base
would Just be another one of tbe
three sacks that constitute an infield
But when one eventful afternoon
In 1908 Pred forgot to touoh second base on a foroe play and Johnny Brers tpucbed lt for him half
an hour later and lt oost the Olants
the pennant, ht and the base became famous.
Fred Merk e became "bonehead"
Merfcle overnight and the name
clung to him through his entire
career. Many fans thought lt was
bis real name and when Fred was
Introduced to them they would
exclaim, "So this Is the famous
'Bone-head' lferkle I read so muoh
about? Mighty pleased to meet you
'Bone-head'." All of which was Just
t p*l& in the neck to Fred of
course.
Although Fred ww one of the
smartest ball players McGraw ever
had, and he only made one mistake and that was a mistake that
hundreds of players bad been making for years, hs was called "Bone-
bead," the rest of his life.

ON THK BOX OFFICE
In an effort to overcome anticipated apathy toward the Washington
ball dub wltbout Walter Johnaon,
Clark Griffith has made some smart
morea wltb an eye to the box offloe.
One of them was the naming of Joe
Cronln as manager, an interesting
experiment tbat either will make a
great manager or ruin a fine ball
player. Another was the return of
Goose Ooslln, adding a gob of color
to the team. Tbe addition of Wrtte-
hM and Stewart to tbe pitching
forces makes the Senators the most
Improved club In either league, apd
Improvement Is what nukes the
turnstiles spin.

BEER BREWERS
URGE NEW DEAL
Propose Heavy Cut in
Prices to Compete With
the Home-Brewer
VANCOUVER,    Peb.   17    <CP)—
A Victoria despatch to the Vancouver Province says:
Brewers    of    British    Columbia.
their business gravely affected by
a  mounting tide  of home brew,
offered the government an entirely
new beer deal today.
.At meetings wtth the liquor board
and   the   attorney-general's  department, they proposed a heavy out In
beer prices,  which would offer real
competition to the increasingly active
home-brewer.   Instead   of   beer   for
93 per doaen, they proposed that tt
be eold for $1.50 net.
Thla would represent a cut ln the
government's selling price of 13.50
a barrel. Of this the brewers would
absorb 91, leaving the government
to absorb 11.60. but, ln addition
the brewers agree to deliver beer
to homw for nothing, wblob would
be a heavy expense, and to collect
the empty bottles from householder.*;.
Under this plan beer would be
sold for 11.75 a dawn and delivered to the household, or In answer to a telephone call. Then.
wben a dosen bottles were returned
the householder would reoelve a
rebate of 35 cents.
It was learned tbat this plan ap-
peals strongly to tba government,
which le alarmed at the sudden and''
heavy drop ln botttod beer sales, it
fits well in with the government'.,
program of homo* tti* ot beer to be
paid for as delivered.
MeanwhV beer parlor operators
am arranging to come here to demand tbat if brewers are allowed
to undertake home beer delivery,
they be allowed to sell bottled be**
