JONAH'S tale
NO FISH STORY
Clergyman Cites Like
Cases as Proof of
Yarns Truth

CHELTENHAM, Eng, R-one Of
the strangest investigations Of all
times is being carried on mere by
the Rev. John Ambrose Wilson, an
aluminus Of Queens College, OXFORD
The Rev. Mr. Wilson is seeking
70 prove that Jonah was not telling
a fish story and that he really in
habited a whale for awhile.
Since the publication CT an article
in the Princeton Theological Review
the Rev. Mr.. Wilson has been de.
luged with letters giving him fur.
Their evidence for his theory that n
was physically, bioloEically and 9TH
erwise possible for Jonah TO have
lived three days inside the whale.
The English clergyman now Is pre-
pairing another article TO confirm the
first.
He maintains that Jonah was not
the only person swallowed by /.
whale. He cited two ether cases. one
Of recent times. Recently, however
his attention has been called by cor.
respondents 10 possible additional
cases, which he is investigating. He
is likewise looking up more confirm.
atory facts on the two cases already
cited.
Il wouldn't advise anyone else "a
try TO book passage on a whale" Mr.
Wilson said. "He would find the
mammals stomach a pretty hot
place. The heat within the whale
has been estimated at 1O4 degrees
Fahrenheit.
When James BARLEY, one or the
crew of the whaler Star of the East,

near the Falkland islands, he emery.

mates had captured the whale. with
his hands. face and neck permanent.

caused by the whales gastric
juices. BARLEY said. moreover. that
the terrific heat in the whales belly
seemed 70 deprive him Of all vital
ity."
Tie second instance upon which
the Rev. Mr.. Wilson relies is that 81

Potato Seed For

GRAND FORKS. n. d. PD-Grow-
ing potatoes in the North for use
as seed in the South has become an
established industry. a survey con-
Quoted through southern fields by a
group of northern growers has
shown.
WAYS and means Of meeting this
Industry in satisfactory manner has
been taken UP by several agencies.
including the Great Northern rail-
road agricultural department. county
Z agents in North Dakota. Minnesota.
and Montana. and several OF the
more prominent newspapers. Plans
call for a campaign for certified
seed with which 70 meet southern
demands.
Experience is declared 10 have
demonstrated that il pays the south

conditions are such in the far South
that native seed does not possess

iitions that prevail IN the South.
II is bv performance IN the field
that northern grown certified seed

changed the subject OF II. worries
from the stock market to the money
market.
These are distinctly professional
worries. however, for the amateur
traders who dabbled in the market
wnen prices were going skyward
apparently lose no sleep over high
money rates, record brokers' loans,
gold exports and the other factors
that tend to despoil the profes-
sionals of rest. Besides. the mara.
thon bull market is ended, at least
temporarily. Prices came hack 10
earth one 5000, 000-share day a
week or two ago, and the public
poeketed it's profits and turned its
attention TO other affairs.
Tradition says that this IS the
time. when prices arc low and the
public 10 otherwise engaged. for
n professionals 10 profit. But adj
verse factors have made their ap-
pearsnce and in these recurring
days OF see-saw markets profession
ais find real cause for worry.
Cal and time leans are at the
highest levels in years. Brokers
loans still exceed 81. 1000. 600, 900 and
show extreme disinclination to be
reduced to any great degree. Gold
continues to flow out Of this coun-
try IN a steady stream that has
transferred nearly $500. 900. 600 into
foreign Golfers since last Septem-
Der. The treasury has reduced its
deposits in banks of the larger
Asities. The federal reserve banks
have been selling government Sc
curities. have increased the redis
count rate 4 1-2 per cent and have
suggested TO member banks that
payment Of loans would be a splen-
did idea.
For these reasons-And others
money Is "tight." Expectations were
realized June % when call money
advanced to seven per cent. II re-
newed the next day a the same
figure and az noon moved to seven
and one-ha1f per cent. the highest
since 1921. Time money approached
the six per cent level, but with
most loans made slightly below that
figure. Reduction Of bank loans

made to the rectory. to FIX up
the kitchen there before the new
rector and his wife came. Nancy
had suggested a new color scheme /;
someone else had rearranged the
furniture; others Rad stocked the
shelves with good things to eat.
And before they were through,
all the women were envying the
rectors wife her new kitchen.
One of them said: II wish you

that began it. They went, made
suggestions for improving the
kitchen and received in return
