Mexico's last aborigine ruler de- lighted int sea food and historians re- port fish was served at every meal His system of couriers bringing him fish from Vera Cruz in ten to twelye hours was so highly developed that even with the building of railroads from Mexico City to Vera Cruz it was not possible to improve this de- livery ! * Now, however, with aeroplane ser- vice to Acdpulco on the Pacific, 'it will be possible to transport fish to the city in less than two hours, Quake's Effects Puzzle Science; New Soundings Washington, Feb. 24.--Exactly what happened to the bottom of the ocean south of Newfoundland when an earthquake snapped 12 submarine cables in November has become a source , of sea-faring woader and worry. No one knows--yet--but many sea captains, coming in from voyages, assert it is impossible to take accur- ate soundings; that the entire region will have to be charted again, as ap- parently the ocean flour has been re- made. The United States Coast and Geo- detic Survey has received queries re- garding the possible changes in depth of the ocean in the widely traveled ship lanes; but Maj. William Bowle, chief of the gedoesy divisoin of the department, is inclined to believe that there has been no material shift- ing. He believes that soon the navy of some. country will send a submarine equipped with a gravity apparatus with the object of seeking light as to the cause of the earthquake. Since Needed for Charts waters, ayn n- these are international country has the right to make vestigations. Reports of ship captains, in his opinion, give inconclusive testimony as 'to the extent of the changes be- cause of the unavoidable errors in determining the position of a ship at sea. As this affected section has a broad submarine trough, with wide varia- tions in depth in short distances, a small error made by the navigator in his location would give sounding dif- ferent from _those shown on the chart, The 23 cable fractures, occurring in the main series of trans-Atlantic lines lying over the bottom of the submarine trough, apparently indi- cate depth changes in some places. Where the cables broke at both edges of the trough, as they did in most 'instances, Major Bowie sces the possibility of depth changes because this bespeaks the sudden dropping of the floor beneath the cable. He is skeptical, however, as to re- ports of very great changes, DOWNWARD TRFND IN NEW ENGI AD POTATO }APKTS Lower Prices arc Forecast in Report--Increased Acre- age Reflected in Price Premium Boston, Feb. ~The mar- ket outlook for New England pota- toes is for lower prices in 1930 than those received for the. 1929 crop, ac- cording to the New England Crop Reporting Service of the U.S. De- partment of Agriculture, The higher than average prices re- ceived for the 1929 crop will prob- ably be reflected in 'an increased to- tal United States acreage and con- siderably lower prices in 1930. Pre- liminary reports indicate that the thirty-five late states will increase their average nearly 5 per cent and the country as a whole nearly 6 per cent. .This acreage with average weather conditions and a yield per acre in line with the trend in recent years would produce a total crop of about 421 million bushels as com- pared with 357 million bushels in 1929. Potato prices in New England are, to a large extent, controlled by the supply of potatoes in the entire coun- try. The 1929 crop was. the largest on record in Maine and New Eng- land. The Maine acrcage has in- creased from 124,000 acres in 1923 to 181,000 in 1928 'and 172,000 in 1929 and may be expected to continue at a high level. Reports from growers indicate that the 1930 Maine &yreage will be about the same as in 1929. The 1929 Maine yield of 277 bushels per acre has been exceeded in recent years by that of 290 bushels in 1926 and 315 bushels in 1924. The increased production of Maine potatoes has been reflected in a reduced price pre- mium in Boston over Chicago. If the present Northeastern acreage (New England, New York and Penn- sylvania) is maintained and high yields are realized in 1930, a less fa- vorable price differential will again result. Stocks. of old potatoes on hand in the United States on January 1, 1930 were 83,745,000 bushels as contrasted with 130,935,000 bushels in 1929 and 99,746,000 bushels in 1928. This was practically identical with stocks on hand *on Jan. 1 1927. However, the unusual percentage of the total sup- ply in the Northeast on Jan. 1, 1930, there being 35852000 bushels in Maine, New York and Pennsylvania on that date as contrasted with 28,- 224000 bushels on the same date in 1927, is likely to prevent the usual local premium of Boston prices over Chicago prices. Competition from the Southern crop is likely to be greater this spring than last. "The 'influence of the re- duced buying power of consumers during the past few months has been a factor in preventing the expected rise in potato prices and is likely to continue throughout the current sea- son. 2 Winnipeg's building permits for last year totalled $11,050,250. be ing an increase of $502,850 over the previous year, The permits for, soveral large undertakings are ex- pected early in the new year. ny PAUL MONTGOMERY Has announced he plans to win, across the Atlantic to Rome t summer.

York, San Francisco and leans, Marshal Lyautey, who subjected and developed Morocegd for France, and is the Commissioner-General of the Exposition, has approved the lan suggested by the Union of renchmen in Foreign Lands.

The government ] wants its sons and daughters abroad to sce what the homeland and the eighteen foreign possessions are do- ing, as one means of spreading French prestige. French steamship lines and rail roads have promised low rates. Pil grims are coming from Canada and the United States, from Moscow and Tokyo, Melbourne and Buenos Aires, and nearly every other spot where French have settled. ra ---------- WANTS EIGHT HOUR DAY ; FOR €IVIC EMPLOYEES Ottawa, Ont., Feb, 25. -- An eight hour day should he put into effec twith respect to all Domin- fom goverhiment employees wh» daily work in excess of that per od.
