water the sand storms of summer
and the ice storms of winter.
The first expedition of note known
to have come over this route was in
1882 when Antonio de Espeio travers-
ed the trail. followed in the century
and half afterwards by a long line
of Franciscan friars. With the priests
came soldiers, adventures and ex-
plorers until in 1880 the united ef-
forts of the Indian tribes turned the
northward tide by administering n
bloody defeat
A few years later another army
under Don Diego de Vargas passed
northward to the re-conquest of the
lost provinces and when Mexico
threw off the Spanish yoke and New
Mexico became part of the South
ern republic, most of the commerce
between northern New Mexico and
the United States came this way.
over this route the members of
the ill-starred Texas-Santa Fe ex-
pedition were driven in 1912 to
Mexican prisons and it was over this
trail that Alexander Doniphan travel
led with his memorable little army
of Missourians to defeat a superior
Mexican army at Brazito without the
oss of man.

100 RUSSIAN WAIFS
RESCUED BY MUSIC

MOSCOW, June g cultural and
educational aehievement-the reseu-
ing and discipling of 100 "Bezpri-
zornis," or homeless waifs-has been
accomplished by Professor Jacob An
issimovitch Belogortzev, a native of
VoroncS southeast Russia.
Scores of lnese children set adrift
by years of civil war and famine
roam the street of nearly every city
in Russia. They are addicted to
every vice and crime The greater
part of them are drunkards, drug
victims or pickpoekets. Efforts of the
government to reclaim them have
been in vain. They have persistently
run away from refugees and homes
provided for them, preferring life
in the streets.
BelogortzeY. however has taken In

youngsters. taught them music and
organized out of them a string or

gortzev was there, giving music les
sons to cossacks. He was popular
and every day as he went to give
his lessons. he was besieged by a
crowd of ragged filthy children who
begged him to teach them music.
This is how the ground for the or
chestra was laid. For four years
the professor deprived of any hell
from outside, carried on his instruc.
ton. Only in 1924. after demonstrate
ing his orchestra before the author
tiles of the Kuban district, was he
granted a subsidy of a thousand dol

The orchestra consists of children
ranging from to IA years. The pro

Der to $50 and to form brass band
of so young musicians. His repertoire
consists chiefly Of Russian songs but

Chopin and Tchaikovsh.

INTERNATIONAL
HARVESTER CO.
OBEYS DECREE
Supreme Court Makes De-
cision Regarding Competi-
tive Marketing.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The Su-
preme Court has held that the In
tefnational Harvester Company COM
piled with the consent decree ar
ranged to restore competitive mar
ket conditions in its field
The question whether the Inter
national Harvester Company was
monopolizing the harvesting machin-
cry business had been a bone of
contention between the Government
and the company, off and on, for
years
In 1912 the Government asked
the Federal District Court for Min
nesota to dissolve the company
which was organized through the
purchase of five harvesting maehin-
cry concerns.
After protracted litigation, in
Guiding several oral arguments in
the Supreme Court, the company in
1918 consented to a decree which
required it to restore competitive
conditions within eighteen months
after the end of the World War
The Government had contended for
a dissolution of the company into
three Independent corporations. with
wholly separate owners, stoekhold-
ers and managers.
In July, 1928, the Government
again went into the Federal District
Court for Minnesota. asserting thai
the company had failed to comply
with the decree The company in
sisted that it had complied, and
the court decided against the Gov.
ernment. which appealed to the Su.
preme Court.
II was argued that while the com
pany had disposed of some of It's
properties it had retained the two
larger concerns which originally had
been competitors. and was able tc
dictate prices The company, how
ever, declared that the order of the
court which restricted it to one
agent in a town had completely
opened the field to competitors whe
now had competent avenues foi
reaching the trades
The International Harvester Com
pany was organized under the lead
ership of j. p. Morgan q Company
through the merging of five harvest
ing machinery companies The con
troversy presented as one OF iti
phases whether bigness of itself con
stituted Illegal restraint. The com
pany asserted its size raised no OBJ
lection under the law, and coulf
not constitutionally be made al
offense.

COLOR BRUSH
MAKES NEW FLOWERS

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Alois
Frey uses a tiny camels hair brush,
intended for water color artists, 10
paint new. permanent, and hereditary
colors into flowers.
Frey is a plant lover and hybrid
iZer. His 25 acre bed of Freesias
here is one of the finest in the
world For 20 years he has been
patiently transferring infinitesimal
grains of fertiizing pollen from one
flower to another with. his little
brush
The years of labor by this floral"
artist have produced a score of dis
tinct hues of the flowers which were
obtainable in only one or two colors
when introduced from South Africa
many years ago. Besides the 20-odd
distinct shades he now has hundreds
of mixed colors. He has classified
200 separate creations.
The fragrance of his immense
Freesia bed containing ten million
plants, is noticeable several miles
away.
In his glass-enclosed workshop
where thousands Of bulbous plants
are springing up from selected seeds,
Frey studies the colors, plant size
and foliage. Choosing rugged speci-
men he deftly transfers to it's stigma
pollen from another whose color he
wishes to blend. From a second plant,
with stems longer and stronger, he
may take more pollen or perhaps an
other touch from third. with flow
ers extra large. There is years
wait before the developed seed put
forth their new creations and many,
then, he discards.
Formerly superintendent of green
houses at Lincoln Park, Chicago,
Frey began his Freesia development
at Crown Park, Ind, and when he
came to California eight years ago
brought more than 100000 bulbs
he had grown under glass In Indiana.

PEACE
is PLEA OF ROTARIANS
At WORLD CONVENTION

OSTEND. Belgium. June 6.-lnter-
national peace must be the chief
desire, the goal of Rotarians every
where during the coming year and
in the future. Harry H. Rogers. Of
San Antonio, Texas, President of the
Rotary International, said today in
his address before the eighteenth
annual convention of Rotary Inter.
national, in session here.
This objective. he said, could be
attained best through the mainten-
anee of high standards of business
everywhere, one of the principles TO
which Rotary is dedicated.
eThere is certainly universal in
terest in high standards of business. .
Rogers said obviously Rotarians
believe that business can be per
manently successful only when con
Quoted along right lines. If SO. it
must be conceded that a study of
the best standards in the business
and professions of the world will
profit all.
Seek Highest Standards
LET us see in what countries and
in what lines of business the high
est standards obtain. and set these
as the goal for Rotarians of every
country engaged in every known
business and profession. | feel quite
sure that the standards in all coun-
tries and in all lines of business are
much higher than we have been led
to believe. Our task is, first to
ascertain the best, and secondly, to
try to bring our membership as near
ly as possible in its everyday living
to this best in business life.
Likewise. we feel there is an
interest in the relation
ship of employer and employee. Any
plan to improve and strengthen this
must appeal to both the
reason and the imagination OF our
entire membership.
"When business is on the right
basis. buyer and seller can both
prosper and competitors will be
Rogers pointed out that it was
fitting that the Conven-
tion should be held in the Belgian
city.
Urge World Peace
"For some years." he said. I'VE
have been stressing the Sixth OBJ
ject of Rotary with its ultimate goal
peace-what country
has stood out more prominently than
this, as an advocate of peace? What
people are more devoted to its pur-
suits than this people?"
Rogers cited the growth OF the
Rotary International, remarking that
at Edinburgh, where the Convention
was held six years ago. there were
but seven countries represented, with
a total of 975 clubs. At that time
there were but 80 clubs in the British
Isles. and but two on the Continent
of Europe. Madrid. Spain. had II
members, Paris. sixteen. Today. he
said, there are 251 clubs in the Brit
ish Isles. and 72 clubs on the Con
tinent of Europe, with $500 Rotar-
ians.
