the Japanese have raised strict taboos. Wilbur Burton, free-lance American writer, was refused permission to land in Japan because he was believed to hold antagonistic views towar I Japan and Manchukuo. He was met by a firm refusal when he | reached Moji from Dairen. Burton has spent a great deal of time since 1927 in China and has contributed to various American mapazir.ts and newspapers. He is reported to be critical of the central Chinese government as well as the Japanese. To deal more offectivelv with genuine espionage efforts in Japan, authorities l.ave built up the foreign affairs po'iee servio Ten to twenty men were added to each of the sectnns at Toyko, Yokohama, Kobe and | Naga.-'.iiki, and increased personnel was assigned also to otlier cities. QUEER TALENT DUE TO MAN'S IH’AI SYDNEY. N, S. \V. 'UP'a man in Sydney who can entirely different things at once, and do them well. He is Stirling Wilkinson, known to his friends as the man with the “dual brain.’’ Among other accomplishments, he

can write different words and sen-' tences simultaneously with both | hands. He can write the same word-! ing backwards. He can also do two separate drawings at the same time. ’ As a bookkeeper he will be particularly envied as he can make simultaneous entries the fig-ures with one hand and the items with the other. Wilkinson says that he was bom that way. As a chil 1, he found that he was writing backwards with his loft hand to the discomfort of his teachers, who had to use a mirror to read his writing. Sp ’ .alists who examined him, decided that he had a disease of the brain To induce correct writing with the right hand, they strapped his left am to his body. When he entered college, he jealously guarded his secret. After a time I ho committed some misdemeanor an 1 was given 400 lines to write. By using both hands at once he completed the task in half the time taken by} Ihe other boys. The astonished master accused him of having another j boy to help him, and then Wilkinson ! had to explain his ability to do two 1 things at once. After that his detention was double that of the other boys.

SCIENTIST SAYS FLY IS BLIND TO DARK HUES VIENNA 'UP'—If you want to bo spared the nuisance of flies, have somber wallpaper and use dark covers for your furniture, says Raoul j France, noted Vienna physicist. France explains that the flies, through many thousands years, 1 have been accustomed to associate sweetness with light colors. In contrast to butterflies, which prefer re 1 and blue flowers, an.l to bees, which ! like purple and dark yellow oner, I flies only seek honey on flowers of light colors. Flies cannot, or can hardly, per-; ceive any colors aside from white, light yellow or a light blue, according eo this scientist, who assert that a fly will never be found on a 1 dark carnation or on a red rose. Flies are always attracted by light, colors and shlnings surfaces such as mirrors and windows, and for this reason white flypaper should be used by preference. France, therefore, ad-! vises use of dark curtains, wallpaper and furniture and to paint ceilings in dark tints.

CONSIDER RE-ENACTMENT OF GALLIPOLI BATTLE SYDNEY. N. S. W. <UP* — The landing of the Anzacs at Gallipoli may be re-enacted in Sydney. That is one of the spectacular displays being considered for the celo-

; bration in 1938 of the 15th anniversary of the founding of Australia. Part of Sydney Harbor bears a striking resemblance to Gaba Tepe, Gallipoli, and would lend itself to such a spectacle, with warships in the harbor pretending to bombard the height.

JAPAN ORDERS CLOSER WATCH TO FOIL SPIES TOKYO, (UP1 —Japan, se authorities have started the seemingly con tradictory and delicate task of increasing vigilance against foreign spies while at the same time giving greater liberties to foreign visitors. An idea among certain sections of the police that all foreigners are spies must be abandoned, according to the views of Shzo Miyano, director of the peace preservation section of the home ministry. But it is constantly necessary authorities say. to be on watch against international espionage agents, who are said to have increased their activities since the Feb. 26 revolt. The unsettled period of the trials of the insurgents. 17 of whom were sentenced to death, was particularly trying to those entrusted with detecting all secret activities considered hostile to the government It is believed here that the strict surveillance to which foreigners have been subjected in the past k a s injured the tourist business and caused many foreigners to stay away from Japan. The newspaper Mival'.e declares that Miyano will tell directors of the foreign affairs of the prefectural police that foreigners should be shown more courtesies, should be afforded adequate protection and should be given every opportunity to see the country. The rule will not hold true, however, for foreigners against whom

But his friend was laid up for many days in a bedroom of the Hailey home which had been turned into an improvised hospital. There the ex-stage-driver was forced to regale young Davie with tales of Jeff's heroism, for the boy accepted Waboo’s part in the battle as a matter of course, but insisted on making a demi god out of Hawkins. "Say. the way you talk you'd think Jeff whipped them Injins singlehanded,” Wahoo protested angrily at lart. "Why, if it warn't for me I0VI1! 11' J( ff’i elunli. h 'll never have got to the top at all. 1 never shot so fast in my life—Injins come tumblin' down like rotten apples!” "You Rangers ought to ho grateful to Jeff all right," agreed the boy. "If he hadn't found Company B you’d all be dead.” He was interrupted by a hammering on the door. A second later Hawkins himself stood in the doorway. "Gee, Jeff, we was Just talkin’ about you,” cried the boy. "Do me a favor, will you, Davie?” grinned the other. “Turn Ualdy loose in the pasture an' sec he gets plenty of grass.” As the boy dashed out with a whoop Jeff sat down on Waboo’s bod and said without preliminaries: "I’m expectin’ Sam.” “What for?” His friend swallowed and did not meet Jeff's eyes. “To talk a little business. That Injin fight did the trick. We're aces with the Major. An’ I've picked a sweet job—plenty sweet. This in goin' to be a gold mine . .. Hie kind of money we can retire on.

"What was th ■ matter with Mr. Hawkins?" inquii d a soft voice a moment later.

"Why. when we was lookin’ for Injins, he talked bout nothin’ but you . . . all the time!” “You're joking. Wahoo. . . .

"Thanks,” he grunted without looking up. Then, as lie reached for his slicker, he again found it handed to him. "Thanks,” he said again, but this time he looked up to find Amanda regarding him with laughing eyes. “What’s the matter with me?” sh'* inquired impulsively. "I don't know ...'' he was startled, "as how anything’s tho matter.” “Do you think I'm pretty?” ‘‘Yeaii ... a man would eail you pretty." "Why don't you tell me that?" she sti rmed suddenly. “Instead of tollin' It to other people.” ‘'Rer.giu' your pardon,” h? looked at Iter in amazement across the horse’s back. "What are you talk.v about.” "So you like my eyea!" She was becoming more and more e-.asper ated. "Yon don’t even know what color they are!” "Right now. they look a little greenish." he laughed, mystified. "And my hair.” she continued resolutely. "And the way 1 walk and talk! You like everything about me —don't you? Answer me!" "1 don’t know what to make of you." ho gasped. Throwing aside all feminine nicety, Amanda walked briskly around the horse and confronted him. “Why don't you face the truth like me?" she demanded. "Wt, love each other!” "That's nonsense!” Jeff seemed on the verge of running away. “Don’t you believe in love?” “No.” “But you do love me?” She was recalling Wahoo's words. “No-o-o-o.” “Well 1 love you. There, you madv mo say it!” Impulsively she threw herself into his arms, kissing him fervently on the lips. At first Jeff was stunned. Then his arms tightened about her. But ns they did so Amanda wriggled free and dashed toward her home, laughing hysterically. fj-, continued)

Interest of American and foreign cotton growers and government experts was focused on Stoneville. Miss., during a practical demonstration of a new mechanical cotton picker, which inventors contend may revolutionize the cotton industry The mechanical picker is pictured above moving down a three-mile row of cotton. Among those present at the demonstration at a government experiment station were O naton, above, left, assistant secretary of agriculture. and Will A. Percy, Greenville. Miss., planter, right. Mack Rust, one of the inventors, contends the machine will do the work of 12 to 16 human cotton pickers.
