I.—Ponathan Daniels, holder of the Guggenheim fellowship in creative writing and son of Josephus Daniels, war-time secretary of the navy, has taken over the property at Ville d’Avray of Honcre de Balzac for writing of his novel. Daniels intends to write of the New South and its younger element which is as distinctly different from the youth of the north as It was in 1865. Th novels of the jazz age in the north do not, in his opinion, interpret the character of the young southerner who puts much more finesse and art into his love-mak-ing, so Daniels is writing a novel with southern characters so that posterity will know the difference.

FIGHT TO SAVE COLLEGIANS Youths Injured in Mountains by Rock Slide. By United Pres* FRESNO, Cal., Sept. 1.-High up on Mount Whitney, far from hospital facilities or proper medical supplies, a nurse and a physician battled today to save the lives of two college students who were injured a week ago in a. rock slide. A log cabin became an operating room as preparations were made to amputate another section from the arm of Donald Downs, 19. The first amputation was made several days ago by a camp foreman and caused blood poisoning. Edward Jordan, also 19, was in a critical condition from pneumonia. His ribs were crushed when he, Downs and two companions were caught beneath a falling rock ledge. The other two students, Donald Griffin, 19, and Robert Rankin, 18, were brought, by airplane Sunday to a hospital here. Downs and Jordan were too seriously injured to be moved. Dr. Morton Frazer and Iva Lawson the nurse, reached the cabin after a perilous thirty-six-hour journey.

SUGAR FOUND TO BE MENACE TO TEETH

Care in Diet Necessary to Prevent Decay, Tests Demonstrate. By Science Seri ice ANN ARBOR. Mich , Sept. I. Tooth-decay can not be averted by the regular use of antiseptic mouthwashes and toothpastes, if you continue to eat toe much sugar. This is the conclusion of Dr. Russell W'. Bunting, professor of dental histology and pathology at the University of Michigan, based on his crucial experiments just carried out with a large number of school children. Dr. Bunting and his associates se lected three groups of children. To one group they prescribed an antiseptic mouthwash twice daily withthout putting them on a special diet, and to the two other groups they prescribed, in adidtion to the mouthwash, a well balanced diet, in which sugar was eliminated except as it was used in cooking to make foods palatable. These children had no sugar on cereals, in beverages, very little sweetened preserves and pastry, and little or no candy. The results of these experiments, which lasted for nine months, were striking. Two-thirds of the children who used the mouthwash only developed extensive dental carie\£ whereas in the children kept on a relatively sugar-free diet, not a single vestige of active caries appeared during the year, and cavities already present did not increase in size. Dr. Bunting's experiments constitute the first successful attempt to eliminate tooth decay in a large group of children. They show that little or nothing can be accomplished by pastes or mouth washes without proper diet.

By United Press TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 1. —There resides in this border town a rancher who has a good idea of how Napoleon felt when he was banished to St. Helena to ponder the vicissitudes of war.

Today, he is a political refugee from his native country. In the 1929 Escobar rebellion, General Manzo served as commander of all rebel forces in northwestern Mexico.

COUNCIL WILL MEET TONIGHT, FIX TAX RATE Improbable That Budgets Will Be Slashed, Final Check Indicated. With budget cuts Improbable, the city council will meet tonight to fix the 1931 civil city tax rate at $1.10 on each $100 of taxable property, A last minute study of the budgets of various departments made last week by councilmen failed to disclose cuts of sufficient amount to reduce the rate, it was said. Efforts of Fred C. Gardner, Republican council member, to clip 2 cents from the 1930 rate failed to gain support of other members of the council, who said a reduction would mean an insufficient tax revenue to defray government costs next year. Council members pledged themselves to watch expenditures of all departments throughout the year to see that expenses are kept within the budgets. Harry Miesse, secretary of the Indiana Taxpayers Association, urged a 2-cent drop in the levy in a general government retrenchment program.

County Meeting Tuesday Faced with recommendations from all quarters for cuts in government cost, the Marion county council Bill meet Tuesday morning to fix the county tax rate for 1931. Although county commissioners made provisions for a 3614-cent rate, m cents under the 1930 levy, various interested taxpayers have pointed out that the rate can be dropped still lower if councilmen adopt an economy program. Commissioners cut almost $40,000 from this year’s budget, and made recommendations to the council for almost $12,000 in additional cuts. If followed, the recommendations will mean salary cuts to numerous persons on the county pay roll. William H. Book, head of the civic affairs committee of the Chamber of Commerce, told commissioners the rate can efficiently be pared to a 36-cent levy on each SIOO of taxable property. Various rates as tentatively fixed by commissioners are: General fund, 19 cents; sinking fund, 14 cents; free gravel road fund, 2 cents (one-half cent below 1930 levy), and the tuberculosis fund, 2Vs cents. Book’s recommendations provide from clipping of 1 cent from the general fund levy, lowering it 3 cents below this year's levy.

RIVER GOES BACK TO 1,600-YEAR-OLD BED Prediction by Swedish Explorer on Chinese Stream Fulfilled. By Science Service STOCKHOLM. Sept. 1.—The prediction by Dr. Sven Hedin, noted Swedish explorer of Central Asia, that in twenty-five years the River Tarim in Chinese Turkestan would abandon its courts and return to an ancient channel farther north has now been fulfilled, according to a communication received here. The river is running now where it did 1,600 years ago. Dr. Hedin’s attention was called to the wandering stream when he tried to follow a Chinese map 1,600 years old.

mistake, for the river on the map was not on the landscape, but instead there was a “new” river to cross 550 miles away. After studying geological conditions Dr. Hedin justified the Chinese scholars and their may by explaining that the southern branch of the Tarim apparently swings back and forth like a pendulum. He predicted then that the accumulating silt soon would drive the river to seek its old course.
