Use of Narcotics
In Calf. Shows
Decided Decrease

That rigid enforcement of the
narcotic laws has resulted in Il
steady decrease in the number of
narcotic orders issued by physicians
in the Southern California district,
was disclosed in a report made yes
terday by Collector of Internal
Revenue Rex Goodcell.
While the number of registered
physicians has increased each year
the percentage of narcotic orders
has steadily decreased. In 1920,
$3.50 physicians registered, and is
sued 1880 narcotic orders, an ave-
rage per physician of 94 orders an
nually. In 1921, 1920 physicians
registered and issued 23,690 orders,
an average of 60. For 1922, 3,6l0
physicians registered, and issued
25,S00 orders, an average of II,
while in 1928 the number of regis
tered physicians was 3,770 and
q 400 orders were issued, a low ave
rage per physician of SO. J
The survey shows that the sale o1
opium or preparations or compoundf
derived from opium, has decreased
40 per cent in the last four years.
In 1920 there was sold in the South
ern California District S,575 ounces
of opium or its compounds, compar-
ed with 1867 ounces for the fiscal
wear 1928.

S. P. OFFICIAL
HERE Tells OF
VALLEY PLANS

Over 1900 cars of lettuce will
be shipped from Imperial Valley
this season, in the estimate of
Southern Pacific officials, accord.
ing to j. Il. Saunders, freight traf
fic manager, who is in the valley
today to make an inspection trip in
company with c. w. Runge, dis
trict freight and passenger agent.
Mr.. Saunders stated today that
he has not seen more favorable con-
ditions in the valley for several
years than at the present time and
he has maintained close contact
with conditions here for several
years. With the assurance of an
excellent lettuce crop and cotton
growers obtaining good price for
their product, there is every indi
cation that the valley is fast re-
gaining its normalcy.
Asked his opinion about the pos
sible advent of the Santa Fe sys-
tenn into the valley, Mr.. Saunders
stated that the Southern Pacific
Company is not worrying ON this
score, but at the same time he made
it plain that his company feels the
movement to induce the Santa Fe
to come into this territory is mis-
directed energy.
s'The Southern Pacific Company
has done all in its power to main
tain it's growth in the valley IN
proportion to the growth of indus
try and productiveness here. For
proof of that l might cite the fact
that we are now building the belt
line from Calipatria to "a short dis
tanee from Holtville. This will give
railroad facilities to section of
the valley which has heretofore
been without this necessary service
and an increase Of population and
crops may undoubtedly be looked
for ia this territory.
Investment of Millions
ssFrom the earliest days ID the
valleys history, the Southern Pa
cific has striyen TO give ITS best
service 10 this community. Our in.
pesiment has grown here until It
now represents many millions or
dollars. and we want the people of
the valley 10 believe that we are
not going TO do anything that VIII
ieapafdisc the progress of the val
lev. Ia addition To the fact that il
Is oniy good business for us 70 de-
Nelop aud increase our interests

the valley is closely allied with the

RADIO FOR THE LONELY LUM-
BERJACK

At "a lumber camp in the State
of Oregon there has been erected
what is claimed to be the longest
straight-line radio mtenna, priv
atcly owned, in the world. The
trees around the camp had been
cut down and the nearest suitable
one was 1915 feet away, 800 feet
high with the lowest limb $50 feet
above the ground. With much diff
ficulty and hazardous climbing II
single copper wire was strung from
the radio house TO Il point 200 feet
up the tree. Many of the large
camps of the Northwest are now
installing wireless sets so that the
isolated lumberjacks may be in
touch with the outside world.
