NEW RACKET DEVELOPED WATTKON, la.. (UP)—The county commissioners of Alamakee county are puzzled to know just how much of a rattlesnake can be cut off and permit the snake to remcin alive. Their interest is due to the offer of a $1 bounty for each rattler killed in the county. When the offer was made, only the rattles were required as proof of the claim to the bounty. The plan failed to result in the extermination of the snakes, county supervisors said, because the snake hunters learned they could cut off the rattles, turn the snake loose and so assure themselves of later profits. The bounty was cut to 50 cents, but the rattlesnake population of the county increased. Last year the supervisors sought to curb the “snake racket” by requiring that an inch of the tail be attached to the rattles. Even this proved to be a failure since snakes were found to live quite successfully without the shorn inch of tail. This year the requirement was stepped up to four inches of tail attached to the rattles. If this plan doesn’t work, the supervisors have indicated they may start at the other end of the snake and require the head to establish the

bounty claim.

suicide by leaping from the city s taller buildings. There were three such cases within a recent week. Ryunosuke Kobayashi, known as a “suicide specialist,” has been plated in charge of an office opened by the Japan Suicide Prevention Society. He will seek to dissuade those bent on suicide from carrying out their

plans.

Kobayashi, in his early 40’s and with long experience in dealing in such problems will interview persons who have come to believe that death is the only answer to their troubles. He w’ill specialize in warding off shinju, or “love suicide,” which has claimed many hundreds at MiharaYama on the island of Oshima, as well as in less spectacular fashion. Kobayashi arranged to call a meeting of educators and social workers, and to map out a series of lectures on the prevention of suicide. Last year the practice of jumping into the crowded Ginza from a tall building apparently was in disfavor after several years which saw an average of more than a score annually kill themselves in that manner. The three who committed suicide recently were young men. In 1931, 18 men and seven women killed themselves by jumping from Tokyo buildings. There were 22 men and 14 women in 1932 and in 1933 and 1934 there were 25 and 16 such suicides. respectively. Police are considering a system of net construction around some of the larger buildings. Special guards are being posted. The matsuya department store has guards of its own and a rail around the roof has been designed to prevent any climbing to the ramparts.

There are two in the archieves of Seville, four in the Madrid Museum, and two at Genoa where the Bank of St. George’s handled the financial affoirs of Co-

lumbus.

The letter now in Paris is acknowledged as authi-ntie. as the signature is identical with those on the other letters in existence, it is yellow with age, its edges tatteii d ami torn, and the ink has faded.
