| ‘GRAND By diligent. spying and listening, I have found out what most people say when they see the Grand Canyon for the first time. As for me, I didn’t say anything. In fact, I wasn’t seeing it for the first time. My first view of the Grand Canyon was from an airplane, 10 years ago. | But of course I was just a little tyke then, not [even 30 years old, and I don’t remember much about it. So today, you might say, was really my first modern view of Grand Canyon. As we stood there on the rim, gazing -at this gigantic spectacle created ‘by nature, I knew that I should utter some profound : observation for posterity. But I couldn't think of a thing. Other people have less trouble with their tongues, however. Nearly everybody makes some kind of remark. As far as I can gather, they run about in this er: : 1. “What a shock the first men who saw it must have had.” (The Imaginists.) 2. “I'm afraid the Soil Erosion Service got here too late.” (The Wits.) “ 3. “How insignificant it makes man feel.” (The Philosophers.) * : # t 4
Discovered m 1540
Wondering about the emctions of the first man seems to go through everybody's mind. It did mine too. It must have given him an awful start. If you were walking through this country on foot, you would approach the canyon through heavy forests. You wouldn't have the slightest warning there was anything unusual ahead. : And then you'd push aside a bush, and there just as suddenly as a gunshot you'd be looking down into the most colossal hole on earth. I don’t see how the first man kept from falling in, just from sheer surprise. : :
It Seems to Me™
~~ NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—As soon as I get back /from a short-business trip to Saratoga I must rush over to Flushing Meadows to see the Fair. If I fail to keep that rendezvous Grover Whalen might weil cite me to be shot by a moral firing squad. i hh Here is my abject confession. ME ‘I've seen the exposition in San Francisco, which is some few thousand miles away, and have neglected to take in the local display which is so close at hand that I could hit it with a rock. There is some wise adage about this particular propensity in people. It’s something about mousetraps in trackless forests always looking good, provided they are far away. However, I surmise on the basis of hearsay testimony that our own show is somewhat more impressive than the slight cluster of turrets on Treasure Island, which lies in the most beautiful of all American harbors. On a still night I imagine, that the prisoners in Alcatraz can hear the swing bands from- the sister reef, within the Golden Gate. .

Perhaps it is true of all fairs, but it seems to me that the -first.exhibits which one| encounters within the gates constitute an overrapid descent from the suggestion of magnificence which the walls afford. ‘Thus, no sooner had I passed the portals of Treasure Island than I ran smack into a man who was offering canes or caramels to all upon the hoof who could fool him by any greater margin than three pounds. From the days of my youth I have challenged and .met these prognosticators without ever having to lower my shield.

American Roundup
(Third of a Series)
NEW YORK, Aug. 18—No matter how the political tide turns next year and no matter who is
elected President, Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia of New York believes that the fundamental objectives of the New Deal have been achieved and that the nation is not going to backtrack away from them. He feels that the important thing right now is for the country to stop calling .the current depression an emergency. 3 “As long as we call it an emergency, we will continue the wastefulness of treating it as an emergency,” he says. “We must realize that it is not a temporary depression, but a new normal, and adjust ourselves according- | SERRE, In this situation, Mayor LeGuardia feels that there are certain fundamentals that everyone agrees upon. These are—that something is wrong when we produce both surpluses and whnt at the same time; that the remedies used to cure previous depressions won't work in this one; “that, pending a solution of the problem, no unemployed person will be permitted to starve; and that -the vicious circle which makes the cost of Government greater in a depression—when it can least be afforded ran in times of prosperity, is something that can’t ‘be put up with much longer.
Social Security Here to Stay
1f these fundamentals are agreed on, then what? Well, Mayor LaGuardia believes that the greater part of the New Deal's social security program—old-age pensions and unemployment insurance—is accepted
CANYON, Ariz. (South Rim), Aug. 18.— °
By Ernie Pyle
Don Lopez de Cardenas and 12 other Spaniards in Coronado’s Expedition, up from Mexico, get the credit for discovering the Canyon in 1540. It was nearly 300 years later that the first Amerjcans saw the Canyon. James O. Pattie, a beaver trapper, and his father, explored clear along the south rim in 1826. : : Of all the ruins and geologic phenomena that I have seen, Grand Canyon is by far the oldest. It's so old that scientists have no idea how old,
Most Fun With Telescopes
The American Automobile Association guidebook says of Grand Canyon that in its power to rouse the emotions it has no equal in the world. With that statement I am inclined to disagree. The Canyon kind of overdoes itself. Time after time I've heard visitors say, “Well, it’s just too big to appreciate.” And frequently I've heard them say: they were more impressed with Carlsbad Caverns or Bryce Canyon Park. It is my own feeling that the thing is too gigantic for human emotions to get hoid- of. You look at it, and there she is, awful beautiful and awful big, and you're just about stopped right there. . . The Canyon averages about 10 miles across.” There are places where it is 18 miles wide. And in its very
_ bottom, where the Colorado River runs, it is a mile
deep. : There are so many hundreds of canyons within the main capyon, and so many ridges and buttes and what-not still standing in that vast depression that it is only from certain points on the rim that you can even catch a glimpse of the river way off down there.
There is a great hotel-lodge standing on the North Rim, 14 miles across. You cannot find it with the naked eye. You can finally spot it through the telescope, if you are patient. If your visit here has to be a short one, looking through that telescope is about the most fun of all. I don’t see why the Government doesn’t put up half a dozen of them.

conception the San Francisco wizard to whose booth I brought my trade was exactly 656 pounds off in his estimate. He labored under the. impression that I was a light-heavyweight on the way up the ladder rather than climbing down. His error was so gross that I was almost minded to demand a dozen canes or a simple pair of skis. Apparently the rules of the game provide no bonuses for those who bring forth preposterous predictions. I got precisely the same cane which would have been mine had the gentleman grown warmer and guessed 250. »
Laboring Under a Delusion
It embarasses me to have my weight sung out for public consumption, even during exhibitions which are wholly educational. So I fled with cane and party to the Argentine Building, where we demanded some native cocktail which would adequately express the spirit of the Pampas. I think it:is set down as a Gaucho.” It turned out to be one of the best Bronx cocktails I have ever encountered. The head man came bustling about and, against the solid will of four, he managed to force a quart of Argentine champagne upon us. Nor would he accept any stipend for the meat-pie dinner which followed. I looked at my companions and said with deep sincerity, “You boys wouldn’t know, maybe, but every

and drink pushed at him when he isn’t looking.” And still, perhaps, I preened myself a little upon the assumption that the face of a humble North American commentator was known even by the Argentines. It is possible that I developed this false point for the
- benefit of my three friends, who happened to be
newspapermen in their own right. Pride, as usual, readily nosed out a fall. Our generous host from Buenos Aires shook hands heartily after he had taken the check unto himself. But as far as I was concerned, he spoiled everything by saying, “I beg your pardon, Senor, but what is your name and what do you do?” And so I will never know whether the meat pie was a free-will offering stemming from native Argentine hospitality or whether we happened to strike the place on bank night.

by everyone. Still in controversy, he remarks, are the Wage-Hour Law and the Wagner Act. The Wage-Hour Law he considers fundamentally sound but in need of a country-wide educational campaign as to its benefits—and, also, of stricter enforcement. He suspects that the Wagner Act is still causing discussion principally because it is still so new.
Beyond these things there is the problem of sur-|
pluses. : “Surplus,” says the Mayor, “is just-a word, It was true in the days of the old economy but it is not true now. ‘Surplus’ today means that amount of our production over and above all the normal needs of the people, rather than the amount which is over and above their present purchasing power. If all of our children were properly clad. and fed, for instance, it would cut a pretty big hole in our surpluses.” » ” ”
Surplus of Manpower
As things stand now, we have a surplus of manpower. And Mayor LaGuardia wonders if it might not be wise, instead of keeping this surplus on relief, to send it linto the factories to produce a huge volume of goods for export—below cost, if necessary—to Central and South America. Suppose, he says, that we produced, in that way, goods worth $1,500,000,000 and took a loss of half a billion on the deal. It would still cost us much less than it would have cost to keep that labor on relief— and it would have been a step toward cohesion and unity in the new work. He admits, with a grin, that he might have trouble selling this idea to Secretary of State Hull. : Regardless of the adjustments that may still be necessary, Mayor LaGuardia thinks that the fundamental objectives of the New Deal are so firmly established that “no candidate would dare to state that he'd change them or, if elected, would dare to go ahead and change them.”

phine addict he is always an addict. It was natural, therefore, that Lepke, having estab-
lished an empire of crime
through industrial racketeering, should get his claws eventually on this illegal traffic, too. Not as a smuggler. Not as a distributor. But as a banker who puts a cers tain sum of cash in a venture and expects a certain percentage of return. en Ruined lives, warped brains, shattered nerves that come with the use of narcotics did not matter to Lepke. There was money to be made in the racket, and he was going to make it. ; His financing of drug smuggling began, as far as we can piece the story together, something like
this: - The chieftain of a mob would come to a friend of Lepke—usually Yasha Katzenburg. Katzenburg is now ‘under indictment, with Gurrah and the fugitive Lepke, on narcotic charges. He's in jail, under strict guard, and it is re-
to FBI agents. But at that time— 1933 and 1934—he was currying favor with the mighty Lepke,. his. own finances having been smashed when repeal destroyed his rum-running business, and he would listen with a keen ear to the chieftain’s proposition. “We've got 125 grand of white stuff assembled in Paris,” the mobster would say. “Best you can get. Direct from Jugoslavia. But we need 20 grand more to bring it in. How about asking Lepke if he wants to get in on the deal?” : » ” 8

Yasha Katzenburg, Once Lepke's Agent, Bares Drug Profits
"(Third of a Series)

EW YORK, Aug. 18.—Narcotics is the greatest single source of income in the underworld. The profits are tremendous, sometimes running as high as 200 and 300 per cent. The market is steady, for once a man becomes a heroin or mor-

So Katzenburg would lay the proposition before Lepke in one of his racket headquarters ‘ ‘round

Ill hold you responsible,” Lepke would reply, as he rose to get the cash and Government bonds in which he dealt almost exclusively. “Remember—$10,000 profit.” : Katzenburg was _so - successful as a middle man—through Lepke’s money and through the threat of Lepke’s name—that later he became head of an important smuggling ring ‘himself. With him were . Jake Lvovsky, now serving time for those: activities, and Sam Lee, who was murdered in less than a year after they got together. _Lepke continued to pour money

But business was so good that there was no serious strife between them, and. furthermore Lepke, because of his wealth, had a considerable influence in the Unione Siciliano. That's why it ds so surprising that the Unione should have played the little prank on Lepke that we'll tell about later. - As Katzenburg’s racket grew, Lepke decided that he should keep closer tab on the operations, So he insisted that Yasha take his pal, Louis Kravitz, now a fugitive, in as a partner.

was to spy on Yasha and report to Lepke — the invariable method of the underworld. i Katzenburg must have known this. But dpparently he did not object, for he continued to bring in. drugs and to line up new agents. In Mexico City, he was
told, was a man named Josef
Schwartz who was: supposed to-be especially able in handling narcotics deals. So with Lvovsky and letters: of introduction, he went to Mexico City—a trip that eventually was to lead to the little prank on the part of the rival group that smashed Lepke's narcotic ring and brought about: Katzenburg’s arrest. 5 8 ” 8
CHWARTZ readily agreed fo J) act as his agent.. In Shanghai, he said, was a Greek named Yanis Tsounias who could get all the heroin that they wanted. If . Schwartz could have $500 to take him out there, he could make all the arrangements with -Tsounias.
Katzenburg gave him the money; |
they agreed on a code, and together planned an unusual method of bringing the stuff in. by trunks of ‘round-the-world travelers, mostly women. Once: in. Shanghai financed by

concession in Tientsin and had it carried down to Shanghai in Japanese ships. ; The Japanese army protected
their ‘source of supply, as it has
protected all narcotics since the outbreak of war in China. Much of their goods had come from Manchukuo. Part had come from Persia and India on ships of the Japanese navy. -In a short time they were able to wire Katzenburg that they were ready to start . shipping the stuff to America. Here's the way it worked:

The inventive Yasha would give
free trips around the world to .
trusted men and women who had a yen to see the far off places. In Shanghai, Schwartz and Tsounias ‘would add two trunks, each loaded with « 126 kilograms of heroin, valued at about $150,000, to the baggage of each one of them, In Marseille - the - trunks would be : shipped. in bond to Havre. In ‘Havre the world-traveling smuggler (would: take passage on a French ship and the trunks would be ‘taken aboard. In the meantime, two. custom inspectors. in .Néw York harbor had been ‘bribed by Katzenburg.
These inspectors had obtained a -
supply ‘of customs stamps fraudulently and had given them to Katzenburg. When the baggage of the smuggling travelers was landed, a ‘member of the gang—frequently Lvovsky . —' surreptitiously would slap these stamps on the trunks containing the narcotics.
. “This:indicated that the trunks
-had been examined. Then Lvovsky would go to the foot of the right escalator, which carried the baggage to the ground level, and ‘when the trunks arrived would drive off with them in a truck. ” 2 ” 2~HE system worked magnificently. Hundreds of thousands of dollars of heroin— which is preferred in the East rather than morphine — was brought in this way. Katzenburg flourished. Lepke was pleased. The stuff was sold, it is charged in the Narcotics Bureau, to Harry Koch, largest distributor in the country ‘at - fabulous: prices, and everybody prospered. - Lepke; bythe way, is supposed to have been a close friend of Koch, now under indictment in the South, and thus he probably profited in the retailing as well as wholesaling of the drugs.

7 ‘How the Lepke-Katzenburg mob howled! The howl that went up was so terrific, in fact, that echoes of it reached the ears of government . agents and before long they had unraveled the vastness of the conspiracy. Joseph P, Martin, assistant. United States attorney, was a principal figure in obtaining the indictments which led to the crack-up of the ring.
Mr. Martin picked up Schwartz
in Paris. Katzenburg, who had fled, was extradited from Greece. Lvovsky pleaded guilty and is now serving a seven-year sentence, Tsounias will be tried in the Shanghai courts. The {wo customs ine spectors admitted their guilt, and are doing time in Atlanta. Kravitz is missing. Gurrah is in Federal prison for another offense, ‘but will be tried on the narcotics charges when Lepke is found.

EPKE never had anything to do with narcotics,” the faith= ful Gurrah replied. “Lepke and I have always been in things together, and I never had anything to do with narcotics.” - Mr. Martin smiled. For, it is believed, the Government. has got the whole story from Katzenburg. At any rate, it is virtually certain that Lepke, in his hiding, has nothing to do with narcotics now. All over New York City the prices of heroin have jumped tremend-
ously in the last year and a half, |
Two years ago, according to Maj. Garland Williams, head of the local narcotics bureau, the underworld bought pure heroin (90% heroin) for about $35 an ounce. Today 62% heroin sells for $70 to $80 an ounce, and it is difficult to get. % As one by one the great fortunes, such as Lepke’s are driven out of narcotics, the supply dwindles and the mobsters lose this great means of easy dough.

We went by boat to the peach on Fire Island and the water was perfect in temperature and not too rough, even a smooth-water swimmer like myself could enjoy it. There is nothing quite like lying on a sandy beach in the sun for complete relaxation. We had the best possible picnic, which Mrs.

idea that anything she does. is always well done. The gentleman who cooked, had built his own outdoor fireplace from long experience in the woods and his chicken and coffee were excellent indeed.

After leaving New York City, we drove up to the Town Hall in Hyde Park village, and I spoke for a few minutes at a League of Women Voters party. It
seemed a shame to stop the dance, but I enjoyed
seeing many people there. Every time I go to New York City without going to the World's Fair I feel a little guilty, for there is so much I still want to see and have not seen.. I have never been back to the Federal Building, which I want to go through very carefully. I have not seen the WPA exhibit, and I have a childish desire to see “Titania’s Palace” as well as innumerable foreign and state buildings which I have not yet glanced at. Perhaps next week when I go down again for hobbylobby, I will have a spare hour or two which I can spend there. If not, I shall certainly try to steal a day or two later and spend full days there. I finished a book called “The Story of a Lake,” by Negley Farson. It is an interesting psychological study of a man who loved a woman, but who was never completely satisfied and therefore turned to other women, always looking for perfection and never finding it. Finally, when he lost the woman who really held his mind and gave him the best type of companionship, his grief drove him to take refuge with nature in a final effort to cleanse his soul. I have known men who resembled this man in some ways, and I think, perhaps, the book will add to the
