CATS ANDD()CS RELEASING ID
 SAVAGE WAYS

BUDAPEST, Jan. 28 Cby Associated Press) ).-1Even the cats and dogs of Central Europe have degenerated as result of the war says Professor Balkanyi, director of the veterinary school here, who is Investigating how the habits of domestic animals have been influenced by that cause. Most of the town-bred cats in this part of the world refuse to drink milk be- cause it is unknown by them, due to the lack of milk during the war, the professor asserts.
 Both cats and dogs are reIapsing to the savage ways of their untamed ancestors" he says. '"The vagrancy of dogs is startling. Pet dogs elope from heart-broken mistresses, joining packs of mangy village dogs, where they live in communist equality"
 The same authority says that, be- sides hydrophobia, nervous diseases are very frequent among animals. He is afraid domestic animals in Eastern Europe are degenerating and that the stock must be replenished from over- seas.

LONDON, Jan. 2S (by Associated Press) Jackless Jills" are emigrat- ing in considerable numbers from England in the hope of finding suit able "Jill-less Jacks" for husbands in the United States, according to North March, bachelor of science. Her com ments on England's "marriageable women who may never marry" before the national birth rate commission some time ago were widely discussed in the British press.
 Government figures show there is surplus of million women in Eng land whose only hope of marrying de- bends on their migrating to some part of the earth where there is a more even distribution of the sexes.

BRING IN GAS WELL
 IN WASHINGTON

SEATTLE, Jan. 28.-Lynch Bros., diamond drillers, are the first to bring in natural gas in the state of Wash tngton. During the past week in Ben ton county, near Prosser, the Lynch drilling crew encountered gas at a depth of 800 feet. The pressure is such as to warrant plans for the forma- tion of company headed by Good win of the Economy market to market the gas in Spokane and Seattle.
 Oil drilling has been under way for some weeks by Lynch Bros. crew in Benton county. It is believed addi- tional drilling will demonstrate that that section will produce oil and com mercial gas. If the gas production is developed the irrigation problem of that section of Washington will be solved by the introduction of large pumps to handle water for irrigation purposes.

MOSCOW JAILS
 OVERCROWDED
 BY PRISONERS

RIGA, Jan. 2S (by Associated Press) -Latvian hostages, returning home from Moscow, state that all the Mos COW jails are overcrowded with pris. oners, the number imprisoned being more than 100000, one-fifth of all the inhabitants of Moscow.
 All monastries in the city have been turned into jails and even the upper story of a large rubber works has been fitted up so as to accommodate 10000 prisoners.
 The conditions in the jails were said to be indescribable. One of the host. ages referring to the conditions dur ing June and July said: we were living under the shadow of death Every night 50 or 80 prisoners were torn from the jail for execution"
 Owing to the constant feeling of the nearness of death many of the prisoners became insane and many fell i'll from underfeeding, the hostage added.
 Last month the Lettish prisoners declared a hungerstrike as protest against their imprisonment, which almost amounted to breach of the peace treaty between Latvia and Russia. They were freed at the re quest of the Latvian ambassador.

BLUE LAWS OF SOUTH DAKOTA
 NEED CHANGES

PIERRE, S. D.. Jan. 2S (by Associat- ed Press) South Dakota's blue laws must either be repealed or amended so they may be enforced, in the opin- ion of Attorney General Payne, who declares the wording of present stat utes leads to evasion of the laws in tent.
 "Gainful occupations" are prohibit ed in South Dakota on Sundays, but no section of the statutes defines just what are 'gainful occupations"
 Therefore baseball, motion pictures, dancing, theaters, boxing and various others things that, it is declared, the law was designed to prohibit on Sun days, are made legal by lack of speci- fication, according to the attorney general.
 Proponents of a "blue Sunday" in this state are eager to have the legis- lature at it's coming session amend the blue laws and enlarge their scope so that they may specifically cover all forms of amusement and commerce not absolutely essential"
 On the other hand sentiment ap- pears to be developing in favor of the repeal of all blue laws. Backers of this proposition urge among other things that the prohibition of Sunday baseball would mean the death of the South Dakota league.
