BE STARTED WITHIN
THE NEXT FEW WEEKS

Bids on contracts for building
the Albuquerque-Pa ajarito road win
be asked for as soon as the co-opera-
tive state and federal project re-
ceives the approval of the secretary
of Agriculture. The approved plans
are expected by the bureau
of public roads within few days.
The road will start at the city limits
and run down the west side of the
river to Pajarito, a distance of six
and a half miles. 1t will be con-
structed of concrete.
The bureau announced yesterday
that the paving of the North
Fourth street road was about three
fourths finished. Work has been
stopped temporarily on the surfac-
ing of the Pecos road from Glori-
eta, as the available funds are ex-
hausted. The road has been sur
faced as far as Holy Ghost creek.

AN EXPENSE NOT WARRANTED

A lot of red tape is necessary in order to amend the
constitution of this state. First the proposed amendment
must be introduced and passed by both house of the legis-
lature. Then the proposed amendment must hold over for a
year, evidently for the purpose of being thoroughly consid-
cred. and then passed again by the legislature the next sue
seeding year. Having thus been passed by two succeeding
legislatures the amendment must be submitted to the people
at a special election for their adoption or rejection. Not until
it is thus adopted by the people after being passed by two
successive legislatures does it become a part oil the funda-
mental law of the state.
AT the present time there is pending an amendment
TO the state constitution about which there is a question as
<The constitution now provides that sheri1s and coroners
shall be elected in the respective counties every three years
and that they shall not succeed themselves. An amend
ment has been introduced in the legislature in regard to
these two offices so as to make the terms of office for sheriffs
and coroners five years instead of three, and make it posi-
Bile for them to succeed themselves. This proposed amend
ment was passed by the legislature last year and it must be
passed by tie next legislature in order to be submitted to the
people. If the legislature this coming winter also passes it,
the proposed amendment relating to sheriffs and coroners
will be referred to the people at a special election, that will
cost the taxpayers about 100000.
The question is, does the matter under consideration
warrant an expenditure of the taxpayers money at this par
ticular time when economy is the one big issue?
The men to be elected to the legislature this fall will
be called upon to pass on this proposed amendment. Voters
interested in economy would do well to impress upon the
candidates that they do not believe the question concerning
the length of Office for sherifs and coroners is important
enough for holding a special election. Candidates for the
legislature ought to be urged to vote against the passage of
this amendment to the constitution at this time regardless
OF whether the proposed change is a good thing or not. 1t
loes not warrant such a burden being put on the taxpayers

CURE OF CANCER
COMMON SENSE WAYS TO KEEP WE'LL

ing and they are held together by
a material that may be likened to
mortar.
The cells, however, are not COM
posed of dead matter like bricks but
are constantly growing and dying
Off, according to certain laws of ma
ture which we do not completely
understand.
Sometimes certain cells begin to
gro and develop along lines that
are not in harmony with the usual
order. A little group of cells seems
TO form a little lawless colony by
themselves. They constitute an un-
healthy and growing spot in the
body. This spot may occur practic-
ally on any part of the body.
The cells form a hard little lump
which can easily be detected by the
sense of touch and this can be easily
removed by the surgeon at the be-
ginning.
If the mass, however, is not re-
moved it continues to grow and
penetrate the surrounding tissues.
Thls penetration is the fatal differ
ence between benign or harmless
growths like warts and malign or
harmful growths like cancer. Final
ly in the development, a large mass
is formed and minute portions be-
come detached and are carried by
the circulation of the blood to other
parts of the body.
Ordinary normal cells when they
get out of place promptly die, but
cancer cells have a power of survi-
val that allows them to continue to
grow wherever they are deposited
and new cancers are the result.
If the first little lump were
promptly removed by the
or by X-ray or radium, there would
be no cancer. 1t is because these
little Jumps are painless as a rule.
that they are allowed to grow and
spread until it is too late.

There is no medicine that will
cure cancer. While drugs advertised
and sold for this purpose may be
harmless, they are worse than value
less, for their use causes the loss of
vitality important time while the can
Ger develops beyond the operative
stage. Except when used by COM
petent physicians in certain minor
and relatively unimportant forms of
the disease, corrosive pastes are
worse than useless.
They may actually stimulate the
cancer and make it grow more rap
idly, or they may eat off the top and
leave the bottom spreading deeper,
all the while wasting precious time.
Cancer is a peculiar disease. 1t
grows painlessly and creeps upon
one with little warning.
The tissues of the body, the mus
cles. the glands and the bones are
each composed of a large number
of tiny little cells. These cells may

by the government now at a rela-
lively low price They will cost
more in the future and the timber
upon them will be scarcer. Ma
tional forests in the East should
have been acquired long ago.
This section of the bill should be
of special interest to the public be-
cause of the great value and inter-
est which the national forests in the
West have developed as play
grounds. In the East all of the
finest camping and fishing and
hunting country is privately owned,
but in the West, by reason of the
national forests, a poor man can
have a summer home in the best
mountain country in the world.
The measure would also increase
the size of the national forests by
authorizing the exchange of timber
In national forests for lands outside
or them. This means that an indi-
yldual or company which owned de-
forested timber land outside of, but
contiguous to a national forest,
could exchange 1t for so many board
feet of timber on national forests.
This timber would of course be cut
under directions of the Forest Ser
vice SO as not to injure the stand.
Meanwhile the Forest Service could
r%eforest the denuded lands acquired
by this method.

ed by all authorities Is a model
conservation measure. 1t calls for
a good deal of money, but mone
expended in conserving national
resources and in learning how to
use them, is money that makes a
return to the taxpayer. 1t makes
the things he needs cheaper and
provides opportunity for employ
ment and investment. 1t is the tax
money paid for armies and navies
and the machinery of government
and In loaps to foreign powers that
really leaves us forever.

BERLIN, Nov. 1.-The peace
treaty between America and Ger

ratification by the reichstag, is to all
purposes a blank page upon which
the United States will do the writ

If America so wills tiff Ii suits
Americans" as the cynical here say
and if America realizes that fair
ness and justice between nations is
still the wisest policy in the long
run, then the treaty may become an
instrument of good toward real
p~acification of the world.
If America so wills it, however,
the treaty contains provisions which
n exacting as it wishes. 1t would
be absurd to claim that the treaty
corresponds to our ideas.
In the sense of its potentialities
1t differs very little from the Ver-
sailles treaty, for there is nothing
hat the United States can't make
but of it il it so wills.
The United States, to be sure, in
sisted upon the elimination of Sec
tons pertaining to the League of
Nations, but we + not members of
the league and there is no assurance
hat we could make our voices heard
il we were.
Nor is there any new treatment
of other subjects in which Ter

lonial possessions, our cables, our
properties abroad-their status re-
mains either undetermined or sub
ject to arbitrary decision of the
allied and associated powers, with at
best the possibility of a formal pro-
test from us.
1t is not for us to say what use
America shall make of the powers
which she expressly reserves to her
self, without committing herself to
any actual use of them unless she
SO desires.

A. The Weather Bureau says that
IL the other conditions are also the
same, there will be no difference in
the thickness of the ice. Other con-
| ditions may differ very much. For
instance, there may be only shallow
water at the one place and deep at
the other. In this cast the shallow
water has thicker ice than deep wa
ter. Indeed the deep water may have
no ice at all. Or the wind may keep
the water in motion thus hindering
freezing in one case, whereas the
absence of wind would favor freez-

A Forest Survey
The bill also provides for a COM
plete survey of our forest resources
This is one of it's most important
provisions, in the eyes of the forest
ers. No n knows what we have
in this line or just where it is.
Equally important from the techni-
cal point OF view is the appropria-
ton of a million dollars a year for
five years to be spent in studying
the utilization of wood, and also
the problems of forestry taxation.
The Forest Products Laboratory at
Madison, Wisconsin, has already
demonstrated the great possibilities
of new methods in the use of wood.
For example, it saved box manu-
facturers a million dollars a year.

wood in kilns which promise to save

peatedly that scientific research in
this line pays immediate and large
returns.
The taxation of forests is a mat
ter requiring much study. 1t should
be so arranged. the foresters say,
that tho planning and growing of
crops will pay.

a year for five years to be
used in ~reforesting denuded lands
in national forests. There are a
million and a half acres of burned
land in the national forests
that must be reseeded.

Science Service

A new rain gauge for measuring
the amount of rain or snowfall has
been invented by experts of the U.
S. Weather Bureau. 1t is of greater
accuracy and capacity than any of
the devices used hitherto, and can
be used in regions of excessive mois-
ture and large rainfall where con-
ditions are not favorable for the use
of ordinary recording gauges.
Under such circumstances, the
new mechanism a be arranged to
record data daily. weekly or month
ly.
This is effected by means of a
clock arrangement which functions
with a single winding over any
period of time desired, up to 10
months. Evaporation Is prevented
by the application of a layer of oil
over the water collected in the re-
ceivers.
The Weighing mechanism consists
of a pair of levers and a strong
spring which support the receivers
wherein the rain and snow are col
lected. 1t is so connected with the
recording pen that all variations
and movements OF the scales are
registered on the record chart.
