the effect that another large passen.
ger liner would be put on the Los
Angeles Hawaii run soon, has been
received with enthusiasm by the
people Of Hawaii
Although the rapidly increasing
tourist traffic between the main
land and Hawaii has caused spccu-
lation to be advanced for some
months past, that the Los Angeles
company would add another boat
TO its Hawaiian fleet, the definite
announcement by the company has
aroused comments Of approval and
optimism. Additional housing IA
cilities for Hawaii visitors in the
form of new apartments, bungalows
and hotels which have been CON

for the increase in tourist traffic
which new passenger liners will
bring. The :. :. Malolo, S7,000,000

Plans to Repair

which is disintegrating. threatening
destruction of the scenic value Of
the falls, has been held up hy the

Tie edge Of the falls has been

its steep edge has been evenly pre-
served, according to commerce de-
partmeut engineers working under
Secretary Hoover on plans for say
ing the place.
The falls on the American side
are not wearing away SO speedily.
The engineers assert that the beauty
OF the American falls is not being
lost. due to the even distribution OF
the water, which totals only 90oo
eubic feet second compared with
the 10000 cubic feet on the Ca
madam side.
Besides the concrete islands,
plans have been suggested for rein

with concrete, and also Tor a sub
merged concrete Weir. or dam, to be
above the falls. The
concrete islands, it is pointed out,
could be covered with trees and
sod to prevent impairment of fhe

Few Tubercul0us
Hogs Are Found

WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-With
current progress IN eradicating tn.
brrtulosiS from cattle. a noticeable
drrlinc of the same disease among
swine is taking place. This an
aoaneement by the bureau of ami
NAL industry, United States depart
melIt of agriculture, is based ON
tield observations and by records of
the federal meat inspection service.
\ striking example of the effect
Of be work has been received by the
department from IN Iowa packing
company which has kept books -
on such losses for the last seven
years. IN 1919 the average loss per
heg caused by tuherculouS infection
was - cents. This figure is the
economic loss for hogs slaughtered
IN the plant. In 1920 the loss de
cLjucd 10 66 cents, in 1927 to ~
cents, and in 1922 to 32 cents. Since
- the loss has declined farth
10 70 cents.
tuberculosis Reduced
We have aetual knowledge,
through experience, The company
adas. that the tuberculin test ap.
pltcd to cattle has reduced bovine
tuberculosis among cattle and hog,
following them. and has cleaned up
he hogs from the disease.
Further evidence is given by the
packer : report from Hardin county,
iowa. which = IN area accredited. aS
t'rer from bovine tuberculosis. Dar-
uI nine months period more
taan ll,o00 hogs We're shipped from
this county and slaughtered, with an
average economic loss, cause by tu-
berculosjS. of only IL cents each.
This figure is less than fifth Of
lie general average which in turn is
about a third Of the loss in 1919
when systematic tuberculosis eradi-
cation WAS Just begun.
An important development of the
work i the discovery that through
out the central west especially,
many poultry fIocks are tubereulous,
aud some infection among swine Is
-raceable to that source. Fowl tn
hcrru.osis Yields readily, however, tc
methods Of control and eradication.
Thus the outlook for the complete
OPPRESSION Of tuberculosis among all
kinds of live stock is encouraging.

SKATING CHAMPION
DENIES ASKING $500
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
ST. JOHN. New Brunswick. Feb
ruary IA sensation has been
created in skating circles here by a
dispatch from Detroit saying that
Julian Fitzgerald. past president of
the International Skating Union. has
announced that Charles German.
world amateur champion skater. de-
manded $500 and expenses to COM
pete in the races in Detroit next
week.
German was quick to deny the re-
port and also to declare that it had
not been his intention to go to De-
troit. He said he had made up his
mind to this effect before he learned
that Fitzgerald had made the charge
against him.
FYtzgerald's statement was to the
effect that he had received a tela-
gram purporting to have been sent
by German saying that the champion
wanted $500 and expenses for partici-
pating in the Detroit meet and that
he would only race against time.
II sent neither wire nor letter to
Detroit" said German. Therefore
| did not demand $500 or any other
expenses. I had not entered for the
meet. When learning Of Fitzgerald's
charges I Immediately sent q tele-
gram to him informing him that II
anyone had attempted to make such
an arrangement in my name he was
doing so without my authority"
