Tagged Tuna
The Portuguese Legation told the U. S. State Department, which told the U. S. Treasury Department, which told the U. S. Coast Guard, which last week told all U. S. fishermen that 60 tuna had been released in Lisbon on June 22, 1932 with metal tags on their tails inscribed "R. P. Aquario, Lisbon, Portugal." To the fisherman who sends in one of the tags with data on where and how the tuna was caught, its size and condition, the Aquarium Vasco da Gama in Lisbon will pay a reward, amount unstated. In previous experiments, Portugal's tagged tuna have been caught in the Bay of Biscay and the Mediterranean. But the tuna is a world wanderer. One of this year's 60 might well turn up off Montauk, Beach Haven or Miami.
