A thriving, modern city of 80 600

served as base for q Smithsonian bo.
tanical expedition to the eastern pla-
teaus of Colombia. which has Just re-
turned TO Washington. The city is
Bucaramanga. According to ELS
worth p. Killip, Smithsonian botanist,
who led the expedition, there are but
two means of approach to Bucara-
man One is by muleback. the
other by airplane Both methods are
regularly employed. All freight is
brought in by mule caravans or by
peon porters, fiveday journey from
the Magdalena River. Yet the streets
OF Bucaramanga are dotted with taxis
and private autos. The shops are as
well stocked as those of Washington.
Prices are high because of the heavy
freight costs, but the material is there
to be bought
Bucaramanga is comparatively
new town. owing it's prosperity to cof-
fee and oil. A railroad is in process of
construction from Puerto Witches, on
the Magdalena River. but only 25 of
the 50 miles have been completed.

AIMEE MCPHERSON
SUED BY ATTORNEY
Sells Home to Pay $500 Claimed
as Still Due on $26, 500 Bill
for Services.
Nv The Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, April 2S.-An indi-
cation of what it cost Aimee Semple
Mcpherson to tell the grand jury her
story about being kidnapped and held
for ransom in the Mexican desert is
revealed in a suit against her for fees
by Roland Rich Wooley, one of her
attorneys.
The attorney asked writ Of attach
ment for $500, alleged to be still due
on his bill for S19 500. The bill orig
fnally was $500, but Wooley reveal
ed that he afterward agreed TO accept
$1,000 less than that.
Mrs Mcpherson revealed that she
had paid $1,000 on the bill and that
only yesterday she had sold ''the only
home / have in order to pay the re-
manning $500. She said she was
mailing the check to Mr.. Wooley at
once.
Mrs. Mcpherson had several attor.
neys in her long but successful fight
against a charge of conspiracy which
the State pressed after announcing
that the kidnapping story was a hoax
and that Mrs. Mcpherson really had
spent a part of the time during her
disappearance last Spring in a cottage
at Carmel, Calf, with Kenneth G.
Ormiston, her Angelus Temple radio
operator. The State eventually dis
missed the charge without bringing
her to trial.

Contest Over Louisiana Med
iCaI Practice Laws Carried
to Highest Court.

The Louisiana medical practice
statutes were under attack in the Su
spreme Court yesterday in three cases
appealed by Joseph b. and Walter w.

Refusing TO comply with the re-
quirements Of the statutes, the Fifes
were enioined by the state courts, and
when they failed to obey the injunc-
tion were held in contempt They
also were prosecuted and convicted
on the charge of violating the statutes.
As chircpractors they insisted that
the statutes were invalid, because
they We're Disseminated against by
being required TO take examinations
before the medical board, prescribed
for physicians and surgeons, While
osteopaths and others were exempt.
They insisted that all knifeless and
drugless practitioners should be in the
same class and treated alike.
Counsel for the State argued that
chiropractors claimed to be able TO
cure all diseases and should, there
fore, be required to submit to the
examinations imposed under the laws.
They had defied the statutes. state
counsel asserted. and could not be
permitted to class themselves with

GERMAN COMMANDER AND GOVERNOR PARKS | N REVIEWING STAND

JUNEAU, July 5. (P)-For the first time, perhaps, since the World war a German naval officer was in the re- viewing stand in an American city for Fourth of July parade when Captain Richard Foerster, commander of the German cruiser Emden, with an aide, reviewed the patriotic parade with Governor Parks and his aide, Major Thornton Rogers of Chilkoot bar racks. Two infantry companies of the barracks headed the parade of civic and fraternal organizations. It had been intended that the officers and crew of cadets of the Emden march in the parade, but it was too late to get permission from the State Department at Washington, and the German sail ors declined to march without arms as they said it would signify they were prisoners of war.

 The record of Alec Bolam, made sev- eral years ago of 54 minutes, remains unbroken
 Under ideal weather conditions in the lowlands but under a sweltering sun on the mountain the annual Sew ard Marathon Mountain race was run oH yesterday. Old Sol beat down un- mercifully as if to make up for its late appearance this season, upon the glis- tening backs of the four runners, and as the swarm of people on the streets of Seward watched, sun flashes gleamed at intervals from the athletes.
 Four minutes past four, at the crack of the gun, the quintet were off from the Bank of Seward corner, striking away with easy strides. They were quickly lost to view and when next glimpsed, 20 minutes later, were in the dense alders on the first ridge Though each man had large numerals on his back, it was difficult to discern and determine who was leading. As the racers emerged from the alders onto the difficult shale and rubble surface of the peak at an altitude of approximately 1,50O feet, Ohls, closely followed by Eckman and Shellabarger, emerged in the lead Three minutes later Howard Seferovich broke thru the alders and mounted the steep hog back. With rythmic tread bodies bent forward, lungs pumping in the rarified atmosphere for the sustaining oxygen, the battle for supremacy was one of grandeur and endurance Tn this position the leaders battled on with apparent unchanged pace, save with Seferovich. Gradually he began to close up the space between himself and Shellabarger Working steadily and like veteran despite his tender youth and inexperience he pressed on. With that wide gap intervening be- tween himself and tn eleaders many a seasoned athlete would have quit, but , the stout young heart held steadfast and true. When the quartet reached the summit Seferovich had practically made up three minutes on the most difficult going of the climb. I
 The first man to round the staff i where Mel Horner, official time keep l CT on the peak was stationed was Shel- 1 labarger at 4:5o:50; next came Eek man at 4:50:55; then Ohls at 4:50:58, 1 and Seferovich at 4:53:30, the first |
