SWISS DRUGS

Claim Is Made at Meeting Of
League of Nations Drug
Committee

Geneva, Sept. 22.-The charge that
great quantities of harmful drugs
are being manufactured in Switzer-
land and clandestinely imported to
the United States and Canada caused
stir during yesterdays discussion
by the league of nations opium COM
mission which decided to recommend
an international conference for the
promotion Of the fight against opium.
Dame Edith Lyttelton, England,
expressed regret that Switzerland,
which had not yet ratified. The
hague narcotics convention, should
DC turning out drugs based on
opium and morphine and smuggling
them by ingenious means into the
United States.
Gustave Add, former president
Of Switzerland, quickly protested
against "these grave accusations"
He insisted that Switzerland was
doing everything possible in the
situation and hoped to ratify the
convention next year.
Mr.. Graham, the Canadian mem
Der of the commission, read docu-
ments which he declared proved
that drugs were being fraudulently
exported from Switzerland to both
Canada and the United States.
A resolution was adopted asking
the council of the league to press
Switzerland Argentina, Colombia,
Costa Rica, Latvia, Lithuania, Para
quay, and Persia to sign The Hague
convention.
Ireland entered vigorously on the
stage of league activity when Marquis
MacSwiney insisted that represent
tative of Celtic culture should be
added to the permanent commission
on international cooperation, the
membership Of which will be in
creased SO as to include various world
cultural groups.
The disarmament commission of
the league concluded it's first read

Vladisvostok, Siberia Sept. 81
With the exception of the Hudson
Bay Company, which under ITS
agreement with the Soviet govern
ment is exploiting the fur trade of
Kamchatka, the resources of the
peninsula are being developed by
American and japanese capital. The
former is engaged in buying furs,
whaling and seal hunting, while the
Japanese are chiefly interested in
the fisheries.
The trade which the Americans
have captured was formerly the mon
opoly of Chinese and Russian com

Six Hours From

San Juan, Porto Rico, Sept. %
Within five years it will be a com
mon thing to fly in six hours from
New York to San Francisco. This
was the startling prediction of 1t.
Col. Harry Graham, of the U. S.
Army Ali Service, recently.
"Our Investigations have shown
that ut attitudes Of from 10000 to
10000 feet there are air currents
travelling from $50 to 800 miles pei
hour" said Col. Graham. "There
currents travel in an elliptical
course, and at different attitudes
move in different directions. Aided
by these currents and with the
speed of machines a flight from New
York to San Francisco in five to sin
hours is certain. OF course the ma.
chimes will have to be electrically
heated and supplied with oxygen OF
no one could live at such heights"

Dairyman Will Take Over
Operation of DIR. Engel-

f.. Sasse, dairyman, has just COM
pleted the purchase of the DR.. Engel-
hard land mile or SO north OF the
city. Mr.. Sasse will, in the near fu-
ture, improve the property with
dwelling, barn, silos and so forth
and plans to have one of the most
complete dairy farms in the COM
munity. The tract embraces two
hundred seventy acres and is well
adapted to his purpose. He plans to
raise but very little small grain and
will devote his energies to milking,
hogs, poultry, corn and feed grains.
He may raise some wheat but he fig
ures that with his other interests
he will surely come out ahead every
year anyway and if his wheat is good
he will be still further ahead.
There have been number of land
sales made recently. In addition to
the above, o. P. Welch has bought a
quarter south of Menoken, E. w.
Doan has bought quarter near
Britton, Henry Strom has purchased
a quarter section east of Baldwin,
and in the same neighborhood a man
from South Dakota has bought a
quarter section.
There is no use in denying the fact
that land values have dropped lot
the past few years, the same as they
have all over, but our lands are SO
very low in value they will soon re-

sentiment in favor of corn. cows

our corn has averaged % bushels tt
