held at the directors rooms>of the
Irrigation District last night. B. ID.
Irvine of Brawley, president of the
new organization, presided, and
most of the evening was consumed
in clearly explaining the purposes
of the club, which will be to pro-
mote the Swing-Johnson bill, and
the methods to be pursued in at
tanning it's goal.
Congressman Swing, who was the
main speaker of the evening, en-
phasized the fact that the new
clubs efforts will be carried along
lines that will keep this project in
the hands of the reclamation SER
vice, where it rightfully belongs.
He pointed out that to do other
wise would be hazardous, and tend
to put the proposition into the
hands of the war department, which
would delay and complicate the is
sue so generally that it would take
two or three years to get to the
point where the bill now stands.
The reclamation service has all
the available information on the
surveys, and other data that has
ever been collected on the Colora-
do river, and is the logical bureau
to superintend the vast enterprise,
he stated.

DOCTOR SCORES USE
OF WORD 'INCURABLE'
Official of q. S. Hospital for Insane
q. Describes Task of Restoring
Disabled to Usefulness. .

DR.. Shepherd 1. Franz, director. OF
the laboratory, Government Hospital
for the Insane, in an address yester-
day afternoon at a meeting in the
National Museum, held under the aus
pices of the Women's Welfare Asso-
ciation, declared the restoration OF
the disabled Is medical and socio-
logical task.
Great care must be taken in reStor-
ing permanently disabled persons. he
said. I'm the case of disease or a lost
member, a new calling often must be
followed; in mental cases a new So
cial adjustment must be made, and
in mentally criminal cases it is nee
essary to show the patients how the
remainder of society conducts itself.
Cites Figures in Case.
DIR. Franz quoted statistics to show
the magnitude of the task of restor-
ing the disabled. In January. 1928.
he said. there were more than 10000
criminals in this country; there are
254,000 disabled war veterans and
100000 industrially disabled persons
in the country; that $4,000 persons
and that there are 100000 persons in
institutions for the insane throughout
the country.
fhe speaker suggested that the
word "incurable," which, he said, is
still a product Of the medical dark
ages, should not be used and that in
stitutions bearing that name should
.'houses of rest The medical prof
fession, he added, is learning more
and more daily and is increasing
longevity.

covered and f1oated down.
Miss Long had been boarding at
the home of Policeman William A.
Link. 1929 Church street northwest,

land which it will donate to the
federal government if the proposal
to make the island a national park

TEST FOR M'AD00
COMES THIS MONTH
Three Presidential Primaries
Soon Due, Which May
Revive His Chances.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Although the McAdoo boom for the
presidency has been theoretically
killed off at least nine times, like the
lif" ~ the feline, it keeps on going,
and the real test of what public opin-
ion is will come in three presidential
primaries this month-Georgia, North
Dakota and South Dakota.
The primary in Alabama on Tues
day of this week has been expected
to produce an endorsement for Sena-
tor Underwood whose opponent, l. B.
MusgrOve, has repeatedly declined to
say whom he favorS, but he is said
TO be aligned with William Jennings
Bryan. NJ. A. Dinsmore is supporting
McAdoo despite the fact that the for
neer Secretary of the Treasury dis
avowed any connection with the
Dinsmore effort in his behalf in Ala
bama-"
Senator Underwood's strength in the
south is increasing. He has the con-
1idepce of the conservative elements
and has been courageous enough to
oenounce the ku Klux Klan, which in
itself is no trivial thing to do in the
hotbed of Ku Kluxism.
The North Dakota primaries are to
be held March 18, and the Georgia
primaries the following day: The
supporters Of McAdoo have staked all
on the result They wish to prove
that the oil disclosures have had no
effect on McAdoo's prestige. and that
if he can carry southern state in
which Senator Underwood is entered,
and if he can win a western state
like North Dakota, where presumably
the opposition to a corporation law
yer would crystallize' as soon as any
where else in America the McAdoo
campaign will have survived the re-
cent attacks upon 1t.
Endorsed In South Daokta.
McAdoo already has the indorse-
ment of the county proposal conven-
tion in South Dakota whose primaries
will be held March rs, but there is
an uninstructed slate running against
him. In Georgia McAdoo is countin
upon the old WilSonian elements. In
North Dakota there is bitter fac
states Of delegates, all are committed
to McAdoo.
The New Hampshire primaries will
be held tomorrow, but there is not
expected to develop any real test of
sentiment with respect to democratic
candidates.
The recent primary In Missouri in
which Senator Reed failed to carry
his own state, Is construed by The
McAdoo men as a triumph. for while
selves they, did succeed in blocking
the Endorsement of the man they hold
responsible for the recent attack on
McAdoo. 1t was Senator Reed who
when E. l. Doheny was, recalled to
the witness stand. asked the ques-
tions which brought on the contro-
versy over the eligibility of a candi-
date who had accepted large fees
from corporations for legal services
Some of the most important men
in the MeAdoo boom win admit their
uncertainty over the outcome in June,
but they feel it their duty to give
McAdoo his run IN the primaries, and
II the people approve of him and his
