 New York, Feb. 10 iP,-A large section of northeastern United States, not yet dug out from under the snowbanks left by last weeks blizzard, today was swept by an other storm of apparently greater fury. Train schedules were dis rupted and surface car and motor traffic was all but paralyzcd.
 Many residents of suburban towns were marooned in their homes by the deep snow. Streets were impossible, even taxcah service being practically at n standstill, Thousands Of con- mutcrs were unable 10 reach their places of business In New York on time.
 On some of the principal busi- Hess streets of the metropolis there were only foot-paths on the side walks, and tens of thousands of persons on their way to work ploughed single file through the snow, instead of swarming seven and eight abreast as they do under normal conditions.
 Hurry calls were sent by the street cleaning department for more shovelers, but the response was scant. Hundreds of men who sought shelter at municipal lodging houses during the night were sent to work with shovels.
 The New York Central, Pennsyl. Vania and New Haven railroads reported a delay in the arrival 0, their fast trains. Some of the bet. ter known trains were half al hour late and arrived at the ter minals here hcaped high wit snow.

California has no pretense OF hav-

neither Syracuse nor Columbia has
been taken seriously, least Of all by
themselves. Ten Eyck, indeed, has
entered his fastest eight in the junior
race in the hope OF turning up one
victory on the. day. He will have to
step some to beat Washington, while
California and Pennsylvania should
be close to the pace all the. way.
The freshman event, according TO
calculations, will be a two-crew race
between California and Columbia,

Second, it was for the welfare Of.
Douglas.
Let's let the same spirit guide us
with reference to the doings of the
BorderIand Climate club. 1t is-,a club
gotten UP for the benefit and welfare
of this city,; its officers work for
nothing and are glad to do so; so the
least you can do is to be sport enough
to shoot square with it.
When you hear someone knocking
it, ask how much he is giving.
Ask your grocer, or anyone else with
whom you do business, what he is
doing to help this club put Douglas
over.
In few days we will have out a
complete list for distribution of those
who are giving to this cause Trade
with them, for they are worthy of your
support.
The men who are giving are not
selfish; they believe in Douglas, and
are willing to give oe their money
and time that we may all have a big
ger and better town in which to live
Certainly such men are deserving of
your support, both moral and finan-
cial.
In the next few days meeting of
the board of directors will be called.
At this meeting many things of i'm
portance will come up, the most i'm.
portant of which will be the selection
of new men to take the place of di-
rectors who have shown conclusively
that they are not interested in the
clubs work.
The writer just returned from trip
in Canada and the east. There are
millions there who know Arizona as
the Sunshine State" Why? Because
Tucson and Phoenix so advertise it.
Let's cash in on that advertising.
We have fifty million cubic feet of
pure air that has never been breathed
by man. The east has fifty million
people who seldom breath pure air.
Let's get the two together for a visit.
1t can be done.
Some say the smoke will prohibit it.
Every city in the east is as black as
tar from smoke. We do not know
what smoke is. Their buildings are
all smoke stained from the ground to
the roof.
No, there is not one legitimate rea-
son why Douglas can not be made to-
go, and anyone who tells you there
is, is just taking that means of letting
you know that he is not for this city.
Any man who finds fault with his
own home town, but does nothing to-
help it, will find fault with his own
family and all his friends.
We don't expect the chronic crouch,
or anyone who has an axe to grind
to get behind this campaign, but we
do expect all of those who love Doug
las, Arizona, to gamble with US for a
year at least

Thinks Mammoth Gaze
Has Further Glories

BOWLING, GREEN, KY, June 3d.
Many wonders may bet brought to
light from the family lighted grottoes,
caves and caverns of Mammoth Cave,
once the federal government estab-
fishes it as a national park and pro-
vides means for extensive explorations.
Kentucl<ians hope to make the Sec
ond national park in the nation east
of the Mississippi When a minimum
of 10000 acres are given the govern
ment the region legally may be desig-
mated for national park purposes. Fed
eral legislation has approved the prof.

Seeking Sufficient Acreage.
Max B. Nathan, president of the
Mammoth Cave National Park associa-
tion, is securing options on 10000 acres
which he proposes to turn over to the
government. Money for the purchase
is being raised by popular subscription.
Mammoth Cave has been explored
through various routes a total dis
tance of $50 miles or more. DR.. w. r.

sible to extend the distance many
hundreds of miles if all the subsurface
ramifications of the caves in this re-

MUSSOLINI FIFTEEN YEARS
AGO WAS BEGGING WORK

BERGAMO June 80. Mussoiini,
only fifteen years ago, was in such
straits of poverty that he wandered
the streets of Lausanne, Switzerland,
stopping persons who seemed to be
Italians, asking them if they could
not give him enough work to al
low him to earn at least a meal.
This sidelight on the premier's
early life was furnished by Pietro
Nava, a stone mason. He wrote
Mussolini, asking if he remembered
who he was. An answer said: 'I
remember mighty we'll"
Crossing a bridge in Lausanne one
morning in 1911, Signora Nava was
stopped by a starved looking young
man who timidly asked whether she
was Italian. When she responded af-
firmatively, the young man, none
other than Mussolini, pleaded for work.

Under present wood tie construc-
tion, no matter how carefully the
track is laid, there tends to be a
slight wave in the track. With con-

The new design is expected to en-
