COAL MINING IS
'QVERDEVE:L0PED'
BUREAU REPORTS
There Are Too Many Mines
and Too Many Miners
and No New Operations
Should Be Undertaken

Washington Dec TO- Studies
of the United States coal commis-
sion have developed the conclusion
among it's members that the bi-
luminous coal mining industry in
the United states is oyerdeyeloped,
and that good business and citi-
2enship require investors to cease
.embarking upon new coal mining
operations, according to a state
ment made public today.
"Too many soft coal niues and
too many miners describes the sit
uation in plain English, says the
commissions statement. In these
coal mines, more capital is invest
cd and more miners are employed
than are needed 10 proGuce the
coal the country requhcJ. This
condition OF course, involves waste
on a countryside scale
Existing bituminous mines, the
statement coDtinued, can produce
a billion tons of coal
per year. while the country con-
sumes only a half billion tons. The
result in some places, is to bring
about. the commission said, a mine
working time which is toe short
to pay adequately, either owners or
miners.

Washington, Dec. 10.--Jackson
II. Ralston, counsel for Represen-

MANY KILLED BY
EARTHQUAKE ON
k|UsH|U ISLAND
Shocks Continue for More
Than 80 Hours; Death Is
UnOffiCiaIIy Put at More
Than 100

Toxic, Dec. 9 (by the Associated
Press) Twenty-Five persons were
killed in the recent earthquake on
the Shimbara peninsula on the Is
land of kiushiu, according to an
official announcement today. This
is considered conservative as ef-
forts are being made to allay the
fears of the inhabitants, who are
panic stricken. Earthquakes were
also reported at Hokadate but no
details have been received.
These shocks continued for more
than thirty hours without inter-
ruption. Unofficial estimates place
the death list in excess o. 100. Most
of the casualties were caused by
houses collapsing. In some places
the land sank three feet. Many
bridges We're destroyed.
The quakes were felt with less
severity at Fulsuoka.
The most serious situation, offi-
cials said, was OF the Island OF
kiushui. All the shocks We're at
tributed to the volcanoes on Mount
Aso.
Residents OF Shimabara have
fled from their homes and sought
refuge at Nagasaki, where manv OF
the wounded also were taken.
Shocks continued to be felt today.
The first shock was the most vio-
lent since the disaster on Sakura-
lima island in 1913. when zoo were
killed. The volcanoes of Unzen and
Aso are entering an active period
after nine wears of comparative
quiet according 20 experts.

NO TRACE FOUND

Searchers for Colonel Francis C.
Marshall and Lieutenant Charles
l.. Webbcr, missing since Thursday
when they were we'll on their way
in a flight from San Diego to
Tucson, Ariz, made a complete
change In the field Of operations
today. a report was received that
an airplane, now believed to be
the one in which Lieutenant Web
ber was taking Colonel Marshall
cast, had passed over Tacna. Ariz!,
a station on the Southern Pacific
railroad goo miles east of San
Diego.
The searchers had been working
on the theory that plane reported
to have passed over Estre1la, Ari-
zona, nearly 800 miles from San
Diego, was that piloted By Lieuteu-
ant Webber.
Officers IT Rockwell Field said
today, information led them to be-
IteVe that this plane was not Web
ber's. They also said that the time
when an airplane was reported to
have passed over Tacna matched
more closely with whqt they be-
lieyed Webber's flying schedule TO

At any rate. the ten army ma
chimes patrolling in the search are
reported to have gone today over
the different passes of the Mohawk
and Crowler mountains and to have
extended their search as far south
and east as ,Nogales.
The report from Tacna added
several thousand square miles to
the territory to be searched,
Every available aviator at Rock

FARMS
ARE DEVELOPED
BY IRRIGATION
Lower Rio Grande Valley,
Once a Wilderness of
Mesquite Brush, Has
Been Made Productive

Brownsville, Tex Dee. To-
Irrigation has developed the lower
Rio Grande valley from a virtual
wilderness Of mesquite brush Of
fifteen years ago into a progress
siye community of fertile farms
and prosperous towns and cities.
The development Of this section
was made possible through the
aid Of private capital.
The first attempt at irrigation
on the lower Rio Grande was
made in 1902. near this city.
Gradually, irrigation projects were
developed at San Benito, Harlin-
gen. Mercedes. McAllen and Mis-
sion, until today moro than a
dozen pumping stations between
Mission and the mouth of the
river are watering $4,000 acres
The growing Of winter veg
etables, one Of the first industries
following the development Of ir-
rigation, is being replaced by the
culture of citrus fruits, largely
orange and grapefruit trees. and
it is estimated that in 1924 the
production Of these fruits will
amount to 5000 carloads. 1t is
claimed that cotton will mature
in this valley from a month to
six weeks earlier than in many
sections Of the south, while It is
possible to raise two crops Of
corn and feed stufCs each year.
Mexican huts have given way
to modern homes. English has su-
perseded Spanish ais the common
language and modern schools
have been erected in the towns
and cities that boast all the latest
improvements.
Government engineers who have
made a survey of the valley,
state that more than million
acres can be irrigated without
infringing on MeXicos Rio Grande
water rights. 1t is said that new
projects, together with the ex-
tension of several old projects,
are now under way.
The 1922 cotton crop OF the
lower Rio Grando valley exceeded
10000 bales in 1922, with an es-
timated crop for 1928 ranging
between $4,000 and 10000 bales.

K|AOCHOW GIVEN
BACK To CHINA
At NOON SUNDAY
Chinese Flag for the First
Time in "a Years Is
Raised Over the Admin
iStratlon Building

Tsingtao, Shantung, China, Dec
10 (by the Associated Press The
territory of Kiaoehow was restored
TO China at noon today with a
striking lack of ceremony. The
Chinese flag for the first time in
"a years was raised over the ad-
ministrption building which had
been used by the Germans and lat-
er by the Japanese who seized the
territory during the world war.
A small group of japanese aud
Chinese officials exchanged formal
addresses and drank mutual todsts
before handing over the final dec
uments which completed the trans
fer, A Chinese gunboat in the buy
fired salute at noon and then
the japanese police headquarters
We're taken over by the Chinese.
General Yuhi, japanese governor
general of Kiaochow and the re-
naming japanese troops in the
territory will depart on December
IA. The staffs which have been on
the docks and which arrives will
remain ten days longer, then be-
ing replaced by Chinese.
4 thousand Shantung troops ar
rived here before the territory was
taken over. Wang Cheng-TinG,
foreign minister Of China, who re-
ceived the territory from the Jap
auese, said he was confident there
would be no trouble from the BAN
dts. as they have left the town.
He declared that now the only pos
sibility of danger is from Japanese
roughs.
Minister Wang, in an interview.
repeatedly expressed his inability
to understand why the arms prom
ised by the japanese for the po-
lice had not arrived. Japan, he
said. has postponed tho delivery
of arms three times. He said he
had 200 police troops within the
city and had 10000 troops on the
boundary. lie said he did not wish
10 accuse Japanese authorities of
double dealing put ne asserted re-
lations existed between the Jap
anese subordinates and the bandits,
Wang denied there was friction be-
tween himself and the Shantung
tuChun.
