Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND. Va, July 11.-Three
weeks remain in which candidates for
State offices may appeal to voters.
Right now there are just two real con-
tests-that for governor and that for
attorney general.
Unsigned circulars are being sent
about Senator Byrd charging that his
enemies are not fighting in the open.
He declares an attempt is being made
to discredit him by making it appear
that his vote in the Senate favored the
retention of certain immoral places.
In the Mapp Section.
One of the newspapers Of the city
has sent out a man to get a line on
what is going on in the State, and the
letters so far have appeared from the
first and second districts. where the
situation is declared to favor Mapp.
The next review will come from the
fourth district
Norfolk city is being claimed by
both sides. Political lines in that sec
tion are said to have disappeared, for
mer political leaders and their allies be
ing found in erstwhile opposing camps,
with the women taking considerable
interest in the campaign and said to
incline TO the gentleman from Acco-
mac.
Not more than 10, 600 majority Is
GWEN to the winner of the guberna
torial nomination, and one mans
guess is as good as another as to who
will win. What the rural, independ
ent vote will do is a diSConcertinS
problem. In some sections the people
are still ranking over the matter of
bonds for roads. and in others the mat
ter of reducing the State employees in
number and adjustment of the tax
problem are receiving attention and
consideration. The bond question is
considered settled in the major portion
of the State, but reduction of expenses
and elimination of State employees and
duplication of work is being demand
ed, along with abolition of some of the
departments and the saving of many
hundreds of thousands of dollars.
State Deficit Growing.
The fact that there is a deficit in
the State treasury of approximately
81 500, 900 is one that has begun to get
home TO the people.
That the State is living beyond its
income is charged. That taxes cannot
be increa sed is asserted, and the funds
for the deficit, in addition to fixed
charges, will have to be met. Whether
this is to be done by increasing taxes
or by reducing the number of State
employees and abolition of departments
is for the voters to say when they Sc
lect their candidates for the Legisla-
ture and State officers.

AN|AKCHAK CRATER
ENORMOUS BASIN
Floor Measures Half of Size
of District of Columbia,
5000 Feet Deep.

Aniakchak Crater, on Alaska PENN
sula, is one of the most remarkable
natural objects on this continent 1t is
an enormous basin, whose floor meas
ures 6A by 81 miles. an area more
than half as large as the District of
Columbia. The rock walls that form
the rim Of the crater rise in places
1900 feet above its floor. and a cinder
cone in the crater rises to a height Of
1900 feet, four times that of the
Washington Monument. In a hollow
in the crater's floor lies lake that is
2f2 miles long and that has an area
of square miles.
Bigger Than Kilauea.
A further measure of the magnitude
of the crater may be had by compar-
ing it with better known volcanic
craters, such as Kilauea, in the Ha-
waiian Islands. which has a diameter
slightly less than miles, or the pit
occupied by Crater Lake, in Oregon,
which has a diameter Of about 512
miles, both being smaller than Aniak-
chalk. Estimates of the amount of ma
terial that has been elected from the
present crater vary greatly, but the
smallest quantity indicated by the
available facts is about s cubic miles,
and the actual quantity may have
been more than 16 cubic miles.
There is no record that this volcano
has been in eruption within historic
time; in fact, the channels cut by the
streams that flow down it's slopes and
the growth of vegetation on the ash
from the crater indicate Aniakchak
Crater is one of the oldest in the
whole series of volcanoes along the
Aleutian range. Indeed, the lower
part of the cone in which the crater
is situated may possibly have been
formed before the last great period of
glaciation, for some of the valleys
that score its sides appear broad, as
If they had been once occupied by ice
and were later partly filled by vol
canic ash.
District Impressive.
The Aniakchak district, whose
broad prairie-like valleys are trimmed
by majestic sharp-peaked mountains,
is impressive and in many respects
unique. The former scene of terrific
earth convulsions is now almost op-
pressively quiet. and the somber
landscape, overswept by ftfully
driven clouds. presents an aspect that
is most weird.
Aniakchak crater was discovered in
August, 1922, by a party from the
Department of the Interior in charge
of r. H. Sargent of the Geological
Survey, while they were searching
for possible petroleum bearing areas
in the Alaska Peninsula. A report
by w. X. Smith, the geologist of this
party, which has recently been issued
as Professional Paper 1921 of the
Geological Survey, gives a detailed
description and views of the crater
and its surroundings
