Is the Climate Changing?
lBOStOn TranScriptl

\booNOfl lIdISCIlpl)
Those who are worrying about the
"diminution of the suns heat, and
the return of the ice age, basing
their apprehensions on a supposed
change in our climate, may be inter-
ested in an item of information which
comes from Mr.. Robert H. Richards,
who for a good many years has COM
piled the Elm Bud Calendar, annually
published in the Transcript. This
study has now been conducted for a
long time, and it appears that the
new year falls within the average of
springs development every time. Va
rying greatly in the date of bud AMI
leaf development from year to year,
the average remains the same. This
year there was no change whatever
in the average figures.
In other words. if the Climate Is
changing. the sensitive elm trees
have not been able to find it out.

Saturday night by Bath fisherman.
There were but two of them and they
were unusually late in getting along.
1t is not expected that there will be
much of a run of shad on the Kenne-

were plenty in the Kennebec in the

oring to control all waters now go
ing to waste and bringing them on
to arid land. He deplored the ac-
tions of the people in refusing to
meet obligations to the government
when the latter has financed re.
clamation project. He said the en-
tire reclamation program is to be
mapped out, so that one project will
dovetail into another, and when all
are completed, every acre of avail
able land will be reclaimed.
Small Farms Best
AS 4 practical and successful
farmer in Idaho, Governor Davis
came out soundly for small farm
and diversified crops The most
successful farm, in his opinion, is
one of 40 acres, with a rotation of
crops and intelligent business like
management. He also urged the
building of better homes on the
farms which in his opinion, are on
ly too often mere sbacks. He com
mented on the fact that in his trip
yesterday he noticed there is room
for great improvement in this re
spect III Imperial Valley. He re-
viewed the necessity for better
marketing of farm products and
predicted a splendid agricultural
future for the United States and
the western states in particular.
Suggestions of any kind that might
improve the work of the Reclama-
tipn Service were always welcome,
he assured his listeners.
Miles Cannon Speaks
Miles Cannon, recently appointed
regional director of the Reclama-
tion Service, was heartily applaud
ed when he stated it is his inten-
tion to locate his new office in Cal
ifornia.
He paid high tribute to Director
Davis, stating that the dams, recla-
nation projects, and thousands of
hcmes made possible thereby, would
be everlasting monuments to his
chief. He declared both Davises
are working for Imperial Valley,
Arthur p. with his.technical and ed
ucational ability, and D. w. with
his political power. Personally, it
was his hope to see $4,000 more fam
ilics in Imperial Valley.
c. X. Cooper, president of the
Chamber of Commerce presided at
the meeting, and turned it over to
| Vice President A. R. Keller, per
sonal friend Of Miles Cannon and
Governor Davis, who welcomed the
visitors and introduced them to
the diners.
When called upon for talk at
the conclusion of Director Davis
| address, Congressman Phil D. Swing
expressed his gratitude that the gov
ernment officials had been able to
obtain first hand knowledge Of the
problems of Imperial Valley.

if in 1916, dam had been con-
structed at Glen Canyon, as is advo
Gated by opponents of the Boulder
Canyon site, it would have availed
nothing against the swollen floods
of the Gila and Colorado, whereas
in his opinion, Boulder Canyon dam
would have withstood this enormous
quantity Of water.
Million Horsepower
Touc hing on power development,
Mr.. Davis stated that were the hy-
dro electric power possible to be de-
veloped by Boulder dam to be used
only for industries in the Palo Yer
de, Yuma and Imperial valleys, the
cost of the construction would not
be warranted, as the combined in
dustries of the three valleys is not
sufficient to use the power that can
be developed. However, there is a
ready market on the Pacific coast
for all the power that can be devel-
oped at Boulder Canyon, all the con-
trary talk of private power corpor-
ations and opponents of Boulder
Canyon Notwithstanding. Boulder
Canyon dam can develop from one
half to one million horsepower of
electric power, which can easily be
! transmitted to the Pacific coast. If,
as private power corporations main
tain, there cannot be any great
quantity of power developed at
Boulder Canyon, he asked why it is
they are so ready to take the pro
ject out of the government s hands
and spend up to $4,000, 900 in de
veloping the dam site.
Advocates Canal
Referring to the All-American
canal, Mr.. Davis said it was desira.
bic that such canal be built, SO
as to remove any possibility of I'm.
perial Valley 8 water supply being
effected by another nation, and al.
so make possible the reclamation of
thousands of additional acres of
land now going to waste. He be.
lieved this project should be built
by the people of Imperial Valley
when sufficient funds had been OBJ,
tanned to warrant going ahead with
the project.
Preceding Director Davis, the
Chamber heard a wonderful address
by d. w. Davis, former governor
of Idaho, and at present assistant to

LOS ANGELES, April 26.-Two
kilograms were received here today
from officials in Honduras, address
ed to DR.. M. f. Rodriguez, Hondur-
an consul in Los Angeles and re.
quested him to act for his govern
ment in rushing extradition papers
for the alleged "hammer murder
ess,'
Undersheriff Biscailuz who is 60
ing to Honduras to bring back Mrs.
Phillips, announced change in his
plans today. Instead of sailing from
Los Angeles he win leave for New
Orleans about May 5, going from
there by boat to Puerto Barrios,
Guatemala. thence to Teg;cigalpa.
Mixup in Papers
The state department has asked
extradition from Honduras of Jes-
Sc c. Carson and Mrs. r. NJ Young,
but has not requested that Mrs.
Carsen be returned to this country,
it was stated today.
When informed that Honduras
dispatches indicatei Mrs. Carson
and not Mrs. Young was supposed to
-bo Clara Phillips, alleged hammer
slayer, department officials said
their information was that Mrs.
Young was the woman suspected of
being Mrs. Phillips.
Police declared themselves to be
positive that the man giving the
name of Jesse Carson, held at Tegu
eigalpa, Honduras, in company with
q woman supposed to be Clara Phil
lips, is the Jesse Carsen wanted
here on an arson charge and at
Olathe, Kansas, on horse stealing
charge.
Description Fits.
The description fits exactly, it
is said, rs did the description from
Guatemala by mail by G. w.
Flash.
sCarsen has wife here, whom he
deserted in January, 1922.
In regard to Clara speaking a
foreign language, Riscailuz believes
she probably confused the Latin
American correspondent, speaking
classic English, by conversing with
her companion in the jargon of the
Jail.
