HOW ~:
DEATH VALLEY voYAGERs

HOW =-==
DEATH VALLEY vOYAGERS
HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES.
Death valley has a reputation
for destroying the hopes Of man
largely because man is by ma
ture q selfish being, according
to John Stanton Of Boise City.
Okla, who claims that most Of
the human beings who perish in
that arid tract Of territory owe
their destruction to the individ-
uals who 60 before them.
death valley presents pic
turo Of the two sides of human
nattre," said Mr.. Stanton. ut
shows on one side the good, the
beautiful and the true, while on
the other hand 1t depicts the
most despicable trait In human
ity-selfishness. For instance,
one Of the reasons why most of
the voyagers in Death valley
come to grief is because they
cannot find water holes. There /,
are men who know where these
water holes are-men who have
discovered them and men who
erect signs to point the way to
them. But after these real hu-
man beings have gone to all the
trouble of erecting the signs,
putting directions on them as
hest they can, the selfish trav-
= elers come along and, needing
the signs for firewood, destroy
them.
"Just for the satisfaction Of
a moment, the utility that
comes from kindling fire
which could be built with a lit
7 tie more effort If the parties
were to search for the firewood
without using the guideposts.
some people jeopardize the lives
of those who follow them.
That is the story of Death valley.
The place has many tragedies to
its record, but one-half IL not
more of them could have beea
averted il human nature had
kept itself In control; IL selfish
ness were not such a strong
trait. Death valley isn't half
so dangerous to mankind as
these men,"

The superintendent of the detec-

One suspect is under arrest and
the two others are being sought by
private detectives and the police
forces of hundreds of cities, TO which
