African Island
Drops Into
Sea
by United Press Leased Wire

by United Press Leased Wire
LISBON, Jan. 27.-Reports
from Africa reveal that the lit
tie island Of Port Alexandra has
disappeared as if by magic under
the sea. Scores of dead bodies
and floating debris are all that
remain of the once populous and
prosperous port. The cause of
the disaster is yu1knwn but it is
presumed q subterranean earth
quake caused a tidal wave.
Details are meager and con-
fusing. A few gibbering mad
men were picked up by vessels
standing ty, near the spot where
the port once was, and from
these survivors it was gathered
that the sea suddenly heaved
up mountain high and dropped
in a swirling maelstrom, en-
quilting the island.

BITTER WRANCLE
WHEN DAIRYMAN
FOUND GUILTY
Inspectors Find Place
Unsanitary AT ter
Many Warnings

After five hours of bitter CON
troversy in the El Centre township
court yesterday, Judge Mayfield
found Fred Bechtold, Il dairyman
living five miles southwest Of FL
Centro, guilty of violating the STATE
laws covering the sanitary opera
ton of daires.
Bechtold was arrested on com
plant Of Guy P. Mayo, inspector
of the division of animal industry,
bureau OF dairy control, state de-
partment of agriculture, and Ross
f. Crane, county dairy inspector.
Mayo and Crane appeared as
witnesses against Bcchtold and tes-
titled that they had visited his
dairy on several occasions, finding
the corral in an msanitary condi-
tion, also that "wct milking,' or
milking with wet hands, Was prac-
ticed by Bechtold and several of his
assistants.
Seven witnesses appeared for
Bechtold, including representatives
of Il local creamery, which pur1
chases his dairy products.
When arraigned, Retchtold ontere
ed plea of not guilty and demand'
ed :. jury trial. This latter was
waived by his attorney, James w.
Glassford, who agreed to abide by
Il decision of the court.
In finding Bechtold guilty, the
court stated that the sanitary laws,
designed for the protection of
health, must be upheld and an
nounced that judgement would be
rendered this afternoon.
Repeatedly Warned
Lee Nuffer, of the district at
tornnv's office conducted the pros.
ecution.
In commenting on the case this
morning, Inspector Mayo criticized
the attitude of the creamery in
appearing as witness for Bech-
told, stating that the company
should cooperate with the state de-
partment in enforcing the laws.
He added that it is not the pur-
pose of his department to bring
dairymen who are breaking the laws
into court, unless they persist in
the violations after being warned.
His Departments is designed to carry
on Il campaign of education among
the dairymen, rather than to pros
ecuta violators. he said. In the
present ease, however, he said, he
and Crane had visited Bechtold S
dairy on June 80, October 4 and
November 21 of last ycnr and
found conditions unchanged after
repeated warning. 1t therefore be-
came neccssary to bring Bechtold
to court as a warning that the de-
partmcnt must have the coopera-
tion of dairymen and the public in
general.

NEW CHAPEL FOR FORT
SMELLING SOLDIERS

After using makeshift buildings
for more than a century for its re-
ligious services, Fort Smelling is at
last to have chapel if campaign
for funds launched by citizens of the
state this fall is successful. Plans
have been made to raise 100000
by voluntary contributions and the
campaign is to take place the week
of November 80.
In the Twin Cities the campaign
is being conducted by two commit
tees of citizens who have taken up
the work as a patriotic duty. Gov
ernor Christensen is honorary
chairman of the campaign. They
are being assisted by virtually all
of the service clubs, women's clubs,
fraternal organizations asd patriotic
societies in the two cities. The
state campaign will depend largely
for its success upon the generosity
of thost living in the smaller cities
and towns for there is not time to
organize, nor funds to carry on, an
extensive drive through the state.
Women's clubs and branches of vet
Grams organizations and other mil
itary groups have been asked to aid
in impressing the people with the
need for a chapel at the Fort.
There are 1900 men regularly
stationed at the Fort and during the
summer months between 5000 and
5000 more attend training camps
there. Because there is no adequate
place to take care of such numbers
church services have to be held in
a temporary building constructed by
the Red Cross during the war and
now used for boxing matches,
dances and parties. This room, with
its memories of frivolous occasions,
lacks the proper atmosphere for re-
hgious services, Chaplain Rideout
has pointed out.
The men at the Fort have shown
their appreciation Of the need for
a chapel by raising $4,000 when the
idea was suggested two years ago
and another $1,000 this fall when
the campaign was taken up by citi-
zens' committees. Hundreds of the
men who attended training camps at
the Fort the past summer. also de
clared themselves is favor of a new
chapel and they are expected to
carry this message to their friends
and acquaintances in their home
towns.
