To BEAR
ALL OF
INVESTIGATION
fRr Assnciated Prass1

NEW YORK, n. Y-It is announced
here ~ the National Research Council
that IN exhaustive investigation is to
be undertaken to determine to what
extent, II any. the danger of poisoning
is involved in the use Of canned goods.
The National Gamers Association, re-
presenting practically all producers
Of canned foodstuffs in this country.
is to bear the entire expense of the
investigation, which will be conducted
entirely independent of the associa.
ton except in the matter of the financ.
ing of the work A sum of over $780,.
900 will be appropriated by the Gamers
Association SHOULD the work require
so large al expenditure.
The proposal to make ,such an in
ve5tigation was brought forward by
Dr. George E. Hale, of the Mount
Wilson Solar observatory and chair
man Of the National Research Council
WHO believed there YVES widespread
interest in such en important subject
as the danger of poisoning from the
use Of canned goods Approaching
the National Gamers Association, DR..
Hale found that Organization eager to
have sIeh independent investigation
made, firm as it was in the belief
that canning methods as generally
used in this country thoroughly pro-
tect the public from the danger OF
poisoning. Many cases Of Illness that
have been attributed to poisoning
from eating canned goods are belieE-
ed by the Gamers to have actually re-
suited from entirely differeat causes
or from disregard Of the ordinary pre-
cautions, such as not allowing goods
to stand III 1 can after being once
opened. -7...:
The Gamers Association itself has
for years maintained its own labora-
tory in Washp gton, adequate to con-
duct its own investigations, but has,
nevertheless, thought it wise to put its
case into the nan6s of an independent
research board, for although the sub
ject is one that has been Investigated
to some extent before, there has as
yet been no complete survey of this
problem. With a view to supplying
this deficiency, the National Research
Council has appointed committee To
supervise the inquiry, which will be
undertaken by the Harvard Medical
School in its department Of Preyenta-
tive Medicine and Hygiene. The work
has been entrusted to DR.. Nj. ]. Rose
nau, of Harvard, who is one of the,
most eminent pharmacological chem.
lists in the country. The results Of
the research will be published through
regular scientific channels from time
to time, but 1t is expected that 1t may
be matter OF three years or more
before the ground is completely cover

DURANGO WINS BOTH ORATOR
ICAL AND DEBATING CONTEST

The Debating and Oratorical teams
of the Durango high school and their
coaches received most enthusiastic
greeting ut the high schol when they
returned from Silverton this morning
where they won the honors in both
contests last night. Fritz Wynn, rep
resented Durango with an Grafton on
Colorado" and Mrs. Rosepht Pulford
was the coach. Silverton was rep
resented by Miss Elsie Condit, whose
Grafton was on America" The judges
Mrs. Gillette and the Messrs. Norton
and Slattery Jr., voted two to one in
favor Of the Durango orator. Silver
ton took the affirmative of the ques-
ton, Resolved That the Government
Should Own and Control the Rail
roads" The leader of the Silverton
team was Miss Mabel Deering and
the seconds were Eileen Mcnamara
and John Granville. Durango took
the negative with Clarence Wulbridge
leader and Miss Vadis' Paxton and
Dorothy Hill seconds. The judges,
Wallie Haas, Fred Goble and Senator
Curran accorded the honors to Du-
| rango by a vote of two to one. Our
nigh school folk felt doubly honured
10 win from such able debaters as
the members of the Silverton team
The utmost good feeling prevailed
Silverton people in large numbers at
tended the contest and proved loyal
hosts. Among the entertainments
given in their honor was a perfectly

BUILDING WAGON ROAD
TO CAVE BASIN CAMP

One of the evidences that the Colo
RADIO Springs capitalists who are OPP
Grating the Mary Murphy and other
properties in Cave Basin under bond
and lease expect to increase their
scope of activities and really place
Cave Basin ON the map. is the mon
ey they are spending to build wag-
on road to the camp. A force of men
are engaged on the new highway,
and work will be pushed as rapidly
as the condition of the ground per-
mits. The truck recently purchased
by the company will be utilized to
transport ore from the camp to the
Smelter. Indications are that as
soon as the new road is completed
the company will purchase the Mary
Murphy instead of paying the pres
ent owners 10 per cent royalty on
the ore that is ready for shipment.

MOVING SHEEP BY RAIL

If present plans materialize the
flock of high grade sheep recently
purchased by Bagby g. Coppinger
will be moved from Aztec to Duran
go by rail tomorrow. The bunch num-
bers between twelve and fifteen hun
dred head. On account of the poor
range between the two points the
owners consider it more profitable to
pay freight than to take chances on
losing animals as result of short
rations.
