CARLSBAD CAvERN-A BIG
CAVE IN NEW MEXICO

Carlsbad Cavern is an immense
cave in New Mexico that shows unus-
ual beauty and great variety OF
natural features 1t is in the east
ern foothills of the Guadalupe noun
tains, about ten miles north of the
Texas line and twenty-five miles
southwest of Carlsbad, the principal
town in southeastern New Mexico.
The cave is said to have been dis
covered in 1901 by J. L. White and
Bige Long, whose attention was
drawn to it by the great number Of
bats they saw coming out Of hole
in the side of small valley. They
entered the hole and found a cave
containing large deposits of bat gu
ano. These deposits were worked for
several years.
Mr.. White has recently explored
several miles of the chambers of the
cavern. About half mile from the
opening from which the bats were
seen coming, the cavern becomes phe-
nomenally large and spectacular.
About three miles of its Railways and
chambers, including its most ornate
parts, were surveyed in the spring of
1923. by Robert A. Holley of the gen
eral land office. In September. 1928,
the cavern was visited by Willis T.
Lee, geologist of the Department
of the Interior, who spent three days
in examining and protographing 1t.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1923-12-27

On Mr.. Lees return from New Mex
leo, the national park service recon-
mended that the cavern should be
made national monument, and a
proclamation setting it apart as rec
commended was issued by the presi-
dent October 25, 1928
No part of the cavern has yet been
thoroughly explored, but enough is
known of it to show that it will rank
high among the famous caverns of
the world. Visitors to it who say
that they are familiar with other
great caverns assert that some of its
chambers surpass in size any others
yet discovered One room is more
than half a mile long and several
hundred feet wide, and it's ceiling is
SO high that torchlights failed to IL
luminates it.
The floor of the cavern is ITO feet
below the entrance, which was
formed by the fall of small part of
the roof. In distance of less than
two miles from this point the floor
descends about 500 feet, yet the bot
tom of the cavern lies still deeper,
for Mr.. White has found chambers
and Railways 200 feet lower The
depths of the cavern therefore lie at
least thousand feet vertically be-
low the entrance.
The geologic conditions in the vi
cinity of Carlsbad cavern are unusu-
al. The limestone in which the cav
ern has been carved is about 1900
feet thick and is underlair by an

ANOTHER LABOR BANK

The Brotherhood of Railway Clerks
National Bank opened it's doors to
the public on December 18th. The
bank IS located in the handsome new
seven story headquarters building
erected by the Brotherhood at the
northwest corner of Vine and Court
streets, in the heart of Cincinnati's
business district.
Over twelve thousand people Wis
tied the bank on opening day to in
spect the beautiful new banking
rooms, leaving s3l1, 900 in deposits.
AT the end of the day the banks to-
tai assets amounted to S755,OO0 1t
is capitalized at 100000 with sur
plus of s50,o00. 1t is expected that
the resources will reach million
dollars by the first of the year
Among the large deposits made on
opening day was one for $50, 900 made
by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
Like it's predecessor, the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers Bank
of Cleveland, the Brotherhood of
Railway Clerks National Bank is CO.
operative in that shareholders divi-
dends are limited to 10 per cent and
profits in excess thereof are distrib-
uted among savings depositors.
To make the bank serve the Broth
erhood's large membership through
out the United States and Canada, as
we'll as workers in general, a system
of Banking by Mail has been per-
fected. Arrangements are also be-
ing made with correspondent banks
in other cities which will accept de-
posits for the Brotherhood bank. In
this way the Brotherhood bank will
be brought very close to the mem
bers of the organization controlling.
Leaders in the labor banking
movement who attended the opening
declared it to be the most auspicious
beginning thus far made by a labor
bank.
