COMMISSION DECLINES TO
CARE FOR CEMETERY PARK

While Cemetery park, adjoining the
Los Angeles high school, is considered
public park, no formal dedication of
the land ever has been made for park
purposes, and yesterday the commits
sion informed the council that because
of that fact it would no longer care
for the park.
The matter was referred to the sup
ply committee, and the committee may
find it necessary to employ a care
taker to look after this plot of land in
which the bodies of a few pioneers are
buried.
Most of the bodies in this cemetery
have been removed, but there are still
a few remaining because no authorize
ton can be secured to remove them.
Those who could grant the authorize
tion are either dead or living where
they cannot be located.

CITY ADOPTS PLANS FOR
NATURAL SOIL STREETS

Specifications for natural soil streets
were adopted by the city council yes
terday, but they are to apply only to
San Pedro, Wilmington and the "shoe
string" strip south of Manchester.

eliminated from the street improve
ment specifcat tions, and they will con-
tnue to be eliminated as far as the
greater part Of the city is concerned,
but there are no gravel deposits near
San Pedro or Wilmington and hauling
the gravel long distances makes the
street improvements come to a prohibi-
tive figure. All street Improvement at
the harbor has practically stopped be-
cause of the high cost Of gravel.

Swedish Radium Factory;

Work is now in full swing in the ra-
dium factory at Islinge. Lindingo.
Sweden. A short time ago the large
new smelling furnace was started,
and it is working very well. 1t is cal.
culated to smelt ton of ore per day..
but, as matter of fact. has been do
ing about 20 per cent more. There are
thirty workmen employed in the fac
tory. At present the most critical
work being done is the production of
radium concentrate. from which the
pure radium will ultimately be extract
ed. The ore is obtained at Kohn-Bil-
lingen, where sixty miners are employ
ed. 1t is expected that the annual pro-
duction of radium will reach four to
five grams. which is a large quantity
compared with the actual yield Of 9TH
er lands. The value of radium now is.
100000 francs per gram.

How Tin Foil Is Made.

Tin foil, that useful substance which,
is extensively used for wrapping to-
bacco. certain food products and other
articles of commerce. is combination
of lead with thin coating of tin on
each side. Not one man in a hundred
who throws a piece of tin foil away
after 1t has served his purpose knows
how it is made. The method of max
ing the foil is ingenious and in a sense
very simple. small pipe of pure tin
is made, and into this pipe of tin
molten lead is poured until the whole
is solid. 1t is then rolled fat like a
pancake. the lead remaining in thin
sheet in the center between two films
Of tin. In this way the tin coating
spreads simultaneously with the lead
core, even though it may be reduced
to a thickness of less than thou
sandth of an inch.

We believe that the settlers who go
upon the public domain and cultivate
and improve their land in good faith
and resided upon it for three years
have given sufficient evidence of their
good faith as hcme builders and we
therefore favor the shortening Of the

aid bringing about the most favorable
conditions for successful farming we
favor the passage by the next legisla-
ture of effective pure seed laws, and
laws guaranteeing to purchasers that
fruit trees shall be true to pane.
We favor such amendments to the
grain commission law and such ade-
quate appropriations for the use of the
gram commission of the state as will
make effective the work of such in
spection and control of public scales
and the inspection and grading of grain,
that thereby market for Idaho grain

IMPROVED RAIL CONNECTION.
Designed to Furnish Solid Support at
Rail Joints.

Cest9heo 10 furnish solid Support at
Rail Joints.
To prevent the destructive hammer
ing of the rails when depressed by the
passage of train new constructions
has recently been designed to furnish
more substantial support at the rail-

ing timbers or ties running longitu-
dinally under the rails at the joints
In addition to this. a number of very
substantial metallic fastenings serve
to clamp the rails tightly in position
1t is usually the case that the joints
Of railroad are arranged to come be-

fshplates are depended upon to sup
port them.

HOOKWORM CASES
FOUND In SOUTH

Washington, March 25.-Publications at
tributed to DR.. C. w. Stiles, of the pub
lie health and marine hospital service,
regarding the hookworm districts of the
south, which appeared in today's issue of
the public health reports, were read with
great interest in view of the discussion
on that subject in the Senate yesterday.
The doctor tells Of observations made in
southern Florida, in three cotton mills in
North Carolina and of a visit to several
cigar factories in Tampa.
In southern Florida, in company with
DR.. F. E. Lindeman. OF the state board
Of health laboratory at Tampa. and DIR.
John s. Helms, DR.. Stiles says he visited
eight schools located In three counties
and s1306 school children of whom he puts
down 55.9 per cent as suspects The num-
Der so classified, DR.. Stiles says, may. as
experience shows, be taken as an ultra
conservative estimate of the number of
these children who had hookworm in
fection.
In fact, he adds, according to experience,
on basis of 55.9 per cent suspects it
may be concluded that the infection Is
probably not less than so per cent, which
was the estimate made by DR.. Helms be-
fore the examination of the children be-
gan. Pupils in these schools represented
not only some very poor children from the
farms but also children of very well-to-do
families from farms and towns.

Washington, March 25.-The Ballinger-
Pinchot inquiry was resumed today after
an adjournment of practically two weeks,
the sessions of last Friday and Saturday
having been seriously interfered with by
the fight against Speaker Cannon in the
House of Representatives.
As sooy as the committee met Attor-
ney Bird ieis. representing Louis r..
CLAWS a others, sprang a surprise by
requesti that Secretary of the Interior
Ballingl be called as one of the wit
nessesI
Mr.. e ndeis stated at first that he
wished to identify by Mr.. Ballinger two
letters he desired to introduce in evidence
at this time. Questioned further by mem
bers of the committee as to his intent,
the attorney admitted he desired to con-
duct a general examination of the ac-
cused cabinet official
Counsel for Mr.. Ballinger objected to
this and called forth from Mr.. Brandeis
the remark that from his letters he had
always supposed Mr. Ballinger to be
ready to appear whenever and as often
as anyone connected with the inquiry
desired.
Some members of the committee seemed
to think that Mr.. Ballinger as the person
most interested in the inquiry should
have opportunity to make his statement
first in his own way and not subject
himself to oross-examination before be-
ing examined in chief.
The matter was passed over temporarily
to be decided later In executive session.
The witness ON the stand was Stephen
Bich, managing director of the Morgan
Guggenheim syndicate in Alaska.
1t was thought at first that Mr.. Birch s
testimony would be largely perfunctory
in character and would follow the lines
of his statement recently made before
the Senate committee on territories. Mem
bers of the committee, however, became
deeply interested in the operations of the
Alaska syndicate, and they piled the wit
ness with questions from every possible
angle.
Much of the questioning was intended
to show that the Guggenheims prac~
tically control Alaska.
Mr.. Birch denied this.
"Well," he was asked by Representa-
tive Graham "if the Guggenheims got
control of the coal lands in Alaska,
what would there be left?"
