First, it would result in modification of the climate as a consequence

cracks where old grain may be lodged should be sprayed with kerosene or similar material Grain bags should be cleaned. Grain heldover from year to year increases danger from W'eevils and if held more than one year should be fumigated with carbon

bisulphide.

After the grain is placed in the bin. it should be examined occasionally and if weevils are found, the grain should be moved or transferred is possible. If this cannot be done, fumigation must be resorted to pre-

vails over the Red Sea. * Secondly, it would have the effect of allaying desert winds which frequently create devastating dust storms such as those which have caused lir.ses of millions to farmers in the mid-western region of the,

United States.

Third, the man-made lake would yield hydro-electric energy which could be harnessed to furnish electric i power to a vast region in Eritrea and - northern Ethiopia. : It has been estimated that $8,000,-

believe construction of the proposed canal would result in creation of a similar lake. Italian expeditions in the Danakil desert have indicated that neither valuable minerals nor oil exist in the sector where it is proposed to create the huge lake The government is taking no chances, however, and is preparing to finance a new expedition which will carry with it the most modern of appliances for the detection of mineral and oil deposits. It is pointed out here that the vast project would greatly aid agricultural and economic exploitation of Ethiopia since Italian ships would not find it necessary to proceed to Assab but could plow through the canal at Meder and proceed to any point on the sea-fed lake to receive products for exportation abroad.

the Eskimo is an Indian, or a race distinct from the early Canadian, and which government should bear the cost of feeding more than 1.000 destitute Eskimos living on the Quebec fringe of the Hudson Strait. At present, the Dominion Government is bearing the cost, but the two governments have been at odds over

the question for years.

Nowhere in the Canadian Act of Confederation is there provision for the care of the Eskimos or even mention of the race. The court will have to decide whether the omission by the

CHAPTER V epilE next few weeks passed rap- * idly as the romance between Knox and Betty bloomed The girl's sophisticated friends teased her unmercifully about her attachment for the handsome young officer but she Ignored them and spent all the time possible in hla company. "Let’s have dinner together before we go out to Mike Andrews' place tonight." Knox was pleading as Betty guided her car dexterously through Haverstock’s traffic one afternoon. "You know we can’t." she laughed. "We’ve been together morning, noon and night for four weeks! If we don’t show up on time Mike’ll never forgive us." As she spoke they drew up alongside a large bus which bore the legend: “tliand Easter Egg Hunt. Civic Auditorium. Saturday Night" The bus was full of children, who yelled greeting at the eouplo In th# roadster. “Hey! Lieutenant Knox!" shouted one snub nosed and freckle faced kid as he leaned out of a window, w»vi Ing frantically. “Hey! It’s me. It’S Bobby Sanborn." "Hello there, Bobby! How are you?” "Pine!" Then, as the bus started to make a right turn, he shouted once more. “Say! Thanks for that car you gave me!” "Sanborn?’’ puzzled Betty as she threw In her clutch and "Jumped" the traffic light just before tt turned green. "Haven’t 1 heard that name before?" "His father was the motorcycle cop that brought you to my office— Remember?" Knot answered sardonically. “Will I ever forget It." she chuckldd as she shot the grey roadster In front of all the rest ot the traffic. Then, as she gave the nervous officer a quick side glance she added: "Still scared of the way 1 drive?" "I’m getting resigned to it," he groaned, then, to change the painful subject, added persuasively: “Come on! Let’s have dinner together before we go out to Mike’s. If you need an excuse for being late I'M let the air out of one of your Urea and say we had a flat, llow about It?” "Oh. all right." she shrugged contentedly. "Where shall we eat?”

The party at Mike's house was ready to break up when Betty’s roadster came limping up the drive that night. Most of the guests had been drinking and were feeling high as they got their wraps and escorted their women folk to the cars. “Hello, you two—what happened to you this time?" inquired their dark haired and athletic host as the latecomers ran up the steps to the esplanade. “Terribly sorry. Mike." Betty wss profusely apologetic. "Tire blew uat.

We’ve been hobbling along on the rim for hours." “No doubt!" Mike was skeptical. "Such goings on!" reproved Dodle, who had come up In time to hear the story. “I don’t believe a word of It.” "1 can’t understand such cynicism.” protested Knox solemnly. "Where are you going from here?” Inquired Betty. "Over to Arden’s place. Will you condescend to come along,” grumbled

Mika

“Come on, my brave Lieutenant," Betty spun her escort round. “You’ve had bun long enough!” protested Dodle. “It's my turn now.” "Archie!'" cried Betty in mock horror. "You’neabout to lose your wife!” "Anything 1 can do to help?’’ yawned Mir. Sloan. “Whereh Jackie?" Betty protended to be offended. “I’ll go with him. Hey! — Jackie!” she called. "Front and

center."

At her hall, Jackie came striding out the front door, an unfinished drink in his band. A pretty, black haired girl with a worried look on her face, was clinging to his arm and helping to steady the

tipsy youth.

"\V hat’s * b o Idea?" young Winslow protested as he waved hla glass. “W h a t’s everybody goln’ for? Wait'll 1 fin-

ish my drink."

"Don’t finish It, Jackie, please,” pleaded his girl. “Not if you're go-

ing to drive.”

“What’s t h’ Idea?" His voice

became ugly. “Think I'm tight... He gulped his drink belligerently. "Go on. If you warn to go!” "Let me have the rest of that drink, Jackie," said Betty quietly as

he hurried up.

"Okay, Sis—” He smiled at her owlishly. "Anything you say.” “You driving, Bangs?” Betty asked

the girl.

“1 think I’d better.” “I'm driving.” Jackie cut In. Betty and Bangs exchanged glances. “So all right—you're driving," his sister soothed, then added brightly: "Look—why don’t 1 drive with you? Bangs can go with Mike." “Vo* think I’m drunk, too.” Jackie was offended. "Don’t be silly,” the girl answered as she ted the way to her brother’s car and started to slide In under the wheel. “My car’s got a Hat and 1 Just sort ot had a yen to see what 1 could get out of this sissy Job of yours. You keep saying It’ll do eighty. Bet 1 can make a liar out of you.” "Is that so!" The boy had forgot sll shout his determination to drive. “A hundred bucks says she’H do ninety! Go ahead and try U.”

And. despite her recent traffl* school Instruction Betty did try it and was not picked up by the law for once. Just outside of town, however, they ran into a string of cars parked bumper to bumper as a Br ake Squad conducted an Inspection of each vehicle. When they reached the head of the line they were approached by Sergeant Maloney. "We’re going to test your brakes, Miss,” he began. “They don’t need it,” Betty ofc Jected. “That’s for us to find out.” Maloney was busy attaching a decelerometer to the running board. "Now start your car. Miss—and when 1 say ’stop’ Jam your brakes on as hard as you can. Let’s go.”

Betty sullenly started the motor ami picked up speed rapidly. "Stop!" commanded Maloney, who had been standing on the running board watching the speedometer. Betty Jammed on the brakes and the car came to a slow halt. Maloney dismounted, bent over and detached the decelerometer. At the same time he extracted an oblong of paper from the machine and examined the results of the test. "Y’our brakes are In bad condition,” he said at last. "Baloney!” growled Jackie audibly. "You have five days to get them fixed." The sergeant Ignored the Interruption. “Then take this slip down to the police garage for clearance. Meanwhile you’re not to drlvs over thirty miles per hour." “Is that all?” the girl demanded. Icily. "That’s all.

WASHINGTON, (UP)—Treasury officials are puzzling as they have for many months—over some method of halting the president flow of gold to the United States where it isn't wanted from nations that would be only too pleased to keep it. Thus far no effective method for stemming the flow has been broached nor has there been any indication of when it will cease. In June the Treasury reported that $18,622,038 in gold was received from foreign ports in one week. Government statistics show that more than $140 000.000 was imported during the four preceding weeks. There are two predominant reasons why Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., and some of his chief advisors would be delighted if the movement could be stopped. 1. Every ounce of gold that comes to these shores that is not "earmarked” for special foreign accounts finds its way into the Treasury and boosts the steadily mounting excess reserves that worry the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 2. Every dollar’s worth of th* yellow metal that is added to the nation’s stock makes it more difficult for the government to fulfill the terms of the Silver Purchase Act. Because gold is priced at $35 an ounce, this means that $35 is added to excess reserves every time an ounce is received and that a potential $350 is added to the ten-to-one inflationary power seen in the reserves. The one thing the Reserve Governors would yike especially to reduce this mountain of reserves down and the dangerous inflationary possibilities. The silver problem is equally 'distressing. Under the terms of the purchase program, the government must buy enough silver to make the monetary stock of white metal equal to one-fourth of the total monetary value of both gold and silver stocks. Because the gold stock has beer* growing so fast the silver ratio remains low despite huge purchases According to the ratio specifications gold is valued at $35 an ounce and silver at $1.29 Huge gold shipments thus constantly overbalance silver receipts. No matter how much silver is bought, more gold always comes in The newest gold movement has come chiefly from France where "frightened" money has moved out persistently despite efforts by the French to halt the flow. France wants to keep its gold so as to support the currency. Despite this, it has lost more than $1 000.000,000 in gold during the last year. In the United States, where a dollar bill may no longer be exchanged for its gold equivalent, the pile of yellow metal has mounted from $7 779.000.000. on June 1, 1934 to $10,387,570,588 as reported in a recent Treasury statement. The paradox of the situation is that this is enough gold to pay off every dolar of currency now in circulation and still have $4.500 000.000 left over. But it is against the law to do this.

The largest crowd of the season was at the softball field last night to watch Lone Star. Federal League leader, defeat Christian Church 19 to 10, and the Merchants drop out of the undefeated class as Midwest noseil them out, 8 to 7. Lone Star scored in almost every inning in the first game and although Christian church scored ten runs, the Lone Star boys were never in danger. The final game was a thriller from start to finish as tne Midwest grabbed a four run lead in the first inning and kept out in front all the game. The Merchants gradually overcame the lead and as they came in for their last bats in the final half of the seventh they were trailing by only one run. But after placing two men in scoring position with two out. Scroggins, the league’s leading hitter, struck out to end the game. The defeat drops the Merchants into a tie with Midwest for first place in the National League. Tonight Kiwanis plays the Fillmore Specials at 7:30 and Coca Cola meets Laundry at 8:30.

MARKETS SEEN IN ALASKA EOR ESKIMO GOODS WASHINGTON, <UP> — Director Ernest Gruening of territories and island possessions in the Department of Interior believes there is a con siderable market in Alaska for Eskimo commodities fashioned from copper. ivory, furs and wool, as well as woven baskets. "Tlie native craftsmen to date do not supply the demand,” he said, on returning from a trip to Alaska. "But under proper vocational guidance they could recapture this socially and economically useful field which belongs to them.” Gruening explained that while craft industries are not the chief Eskimo revenue, they are very important Sale of hand-made goods enables the native Indians and Eskimo to obtain cash which is used to purchase supplies for fishing and hunting. occupations which furnish their main source of livelihood. Three - quarters of the Totem poles sold to tourists in Alaska are made in the Orient, he said, indicat-1 ing the prevalence of foreign made' goods.
