Mattresses Dance With
 Son of President

Yellowstone National Park, Aug. 25 [R - Two young college girls who are waiting on tables at the Lake hotel during their summer vacation danced five fox trots last night with John Coolidge, son of the president. while Mrs. Coolidge looked on.
 To the tune of Tonight You Be- long to Me-" John sailed off with Miss Fern Smith of Lyons, Mass, and when the college boy orchestra changed to Who's Baby Are You Now" he trotted out with her sis ter. Alta.
 He picked these two from the host of girls which attended the dance at the hotel pavilion and danced three times with Fern and twice with Alta while his mother graciously postponed her departure, although 1t was growing late.
 The Smith sisters had taken a leading part in an entertainment at the pavilion which Mrs. Coolidge and John attended and Mrs. Cool idge consented to stay after the show was over so that John might associate with folks of his own age for the first time since he joined his parents this summer.

SAYS CHILE ONLY
 CLEANING HOUSE
President Explains Number Of
 DeportationS

Santiago. Chile, Aug. % (UP)- President Ibanez of Chile today re- viewed the economic situation of his country in an exclusive interview with the United Press and ex- plained his governments policies with respect to future loans.
 Chile recently has experienced internal dissensions which was countered by the government in de- porting considerable number of persons who allegedly subscribed to communistic doctrines.
 Putting our house in order" said President IbaneZ, my government has reduced expenses by 40,000,00o pesos, suspended 2,00O employees and reduced the army by 5000 from a total of 10000. There will be still further reduction of expenses and of employees until the budget is bal anced without increasing taxes.
 "The country is quiet and busy"
 The communists deported to the Island of Juan Fernandez with their families were supplied with tools. houses and everything nec- essary to work out their destinies without interference. After six months these people expressed a wish to return to the continent and they will return Independence Day. Sept. IS, content to live under or ganized government.
 AS a demonstration of the peace fulness of the country, not single protest meeting or formal protest to the government has occurred in all Chile regarding the Sacco- Van zetti case.
 T believe that the future pros- perity and development of Chile de- pend largely on foreign capital. Hitherto several public loans have served to pay part of the public debt and overdue salaries. Not many loans have been employed on con- structive. productive works. During the course of my government no loans will be contracted unless destined exclusively to works that signify progress in every sense. New loans will be considered for consol- idation of debts, for road improve ment and port works, railways and sanitary projects. and so forth.
 "One of the most important ob- jects of my government is the solu- tion of the nitrate crisis. For that purpose a new law has been enact ed placing this industry under i'm mediate control of the state. The government will omit no efforts in portant of our national industries.

Many Err in Guess
Upon Paper Postage

Failure on the part Of individuals in
mailing newspapers and magazines to
present them at the postoffice for rat
ing, has caused considerable grief to
local citizens, according to informa-
tion given yesterday by Postmaster
R. j. Connor.
Since the change in postal rates a
year ago last April, it is almost inn
possible for the individual who is not
familiar with these changes to guess
right more than one time out Of ten, Z
Postmaster Connor said.
"When such pieces of mail matter
are insufficiently paid where a return
address is shown, it is necessary that
we return this to the sender for adj
ditional postage. This action causes
delay in the dispatch of the article,
additional work on the part of the
postoffice department, and consider
able bother and annoyance to the
mailer.
Where no return address is shown,
it is necessary for the postoffice to
notify the addressce to furnish the ad-
ditional postage before this article
can go forward to its destination, thus
causing both additional expense and
annoyance to someone who is receiv-
ing this article as a matter of cour-
tesy from friend. We think the sit
uation could be easily handled if the
public would cooperate more"

CAMERON CANYON CLAIMS
DECLARED TO BE INVALID

Former United States Senator
Ralph H. Cameron finally has been
dispossessed of the last of his mining
claims in the Grand Canyon.
This information was made public
by the Phoenix branch of the United
Stat, $ land office upon receipt of a
copy of the decision handed down by
the secretary of the interior on an
appeal from judgement of the COM
missioner of the general land office
The decision of the secretary termin-
ates, as far as the department Of the
interior is concerned, proceedings dat
ing back to 1922.
The decision stated that the con-
tinued assertion of baseless possess
ing right to these lands by the appel
lants constitutes continuing tres
pass and a public nuisance and that
the public interest demands that the
claims be declared null and void, af-
firming the decision Of the commits
sioner.
The Cameron mining locations total
% in number in two separate groups,
all within the Grand Canyon. The To-
cations in question have been in a
public forest reserve since 1893 In
1908, the forest became a part of the
Grand Canyon National monument.
The claims were located in the
months of January and February,
1907, prior to the creation of the
monument reserve which withdrew
the lands from the operation of the
mining laws. But, notwithstanding
this, the secretary sets forth in his
decision that to render any such
claims valid it was essential that the
lands be mineral in character and
that there be an adequate mineral
discovery preceding the creation of
the reserve. The decision of the COM
missioner of the general land COM
mission, which has just been af-
firmed by the secretary of the inter-
Tor, denied that the locations were
mineral in character or that an ade-
quate discovery Of mineral on them
had been made by Cameron and his
associates who had filed claims to the
land.
