DAN MOODY TO
ANSWER B0RAH

Austin, Tex. Oct. 24.--(AP)--
Governor Dan Moody of Texas, who,
beyond declaring his loyalty to the
Democratic ticket, has maintained
silence in the National campaign
since the nomination Of Governor Al
fred f. Smith at Houston, will break
his silence in Dallas Saturday night
to reply to the campaign speech
which Senator William E. Borah of
Idaho delivered there Monday.
The governor announced his deci-
sion last night. but refused to indi-
cate what ground his speech would
cover.
In a statement issued yesterday
the youthful executive assailed Sen
ator Borah for his attitude toward
President Woodrow Wilson during
and after the world war. He charged
that it was opposition Of Senator
Borah and his colleagues that forced
the wartime president to decide t
tour the nation in order to espouse
the League of Nations and perman-
ent peace to the people.

MOUNTING COST OF EXPLORATION
OBSERVED BY SCIENTIFIC GROUPS

n Washington, Oct. a. R- Al
though the Byrd antarctic cxpedi-
ton is not the first million dollar ex-
ploration undertaken in the history
Of American scientific effort, it has
emphasized the mounting cost of this
branch of endeavor for the advance
ment of mans knowledge.
In cost, the naval expedition led
by Charles Wilkes, which visited
antarctic regions and various islands
in the Pacific and eventually worked
its way around the world in 1882.
probably comes as close as any to
the Byrd expedition for purposes Of
comparison. A squadron of naval
vessels was used. and. while no fig
ures are available because the ex-
pense was met largely out of regu-
lar navy appropriations. the total
must have amounted to 81 ,OOO, 900 or
more.
It is among the less extraordinary
undertakings, however, that the
rapid increase in the cost of ex-
ploration in recent years becomes
most apparent. George X. Cherrie,
former curator of the Field Museum
of Natural History at Chicago, who
has made 80 scientific expeditions to
Central and South America, is
quoted by Mrs. Mary L. lobe Akeley.
widow of the African explorer, Carl
Akeley. as having observed that tex
ploring has become a rich mans
pastime." His last expedition to
central Brazil, he said, cost three
times as much as it would have 80
years ago.

Costs $4,000 Yearly

Similar experiences have been re-
corded by other museums and scien-
tific organizations. The Carnegie in
stitution of Washington, which has
been conducting oceanographic ex-
plorations for number of years
with the nonmagnetic ship Carnegie,
finds that the cost Of operating the
vessel now amounts to about $4,000
. year, as compared with $4,000 be-
fore the World war, not including
the salaries of the scientific staff.
The National Geographic society
has expended 100000 on explora-
tions and field surveys in the last
few years, including $4,000 in the
summer Of 1925 to finance the North
Greenland expedition of Capt. Don
aid Macmillan. on which Comm.
Richard f. Byrd obtained his first
arctic flying experience. The four
years of work in exploring Mount
katmai, resulting in the discovery
OF the Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes on the Alaskan peninsula,
cost more than $4,000, and three
year expedition to uncover ancient
Inca ruins in the mountains of Peru
required $4,000.
The figures do not cover the COM
piling and publishing of the masses
OF data obtained by the expeditions,
Much of the increased cost is found
BY various explorers to be the re.
suit of advances in the prices for
equipment, food and incidentals. al.
though salaries have gone up t
some extent and labor and other help
has advanced considerably.

To Burleigh

AS q candidate for County Judge
Of Burleigh County, I deem it TT
ting as the election draws near that
!! should make known my reasons
Tor asking that you confer such
honor and responsibility on me.
First, ! am asking this honor and
trust because rotation in office is a
well established principle, funda-
mental in America. Every president
OF the United States has respected
this principle and eight years Of
service has been the limit. In coun-
ty affairs we might profit by their
example. Long terms tend to de-
generate both the service and the
officer. There can be no progress
without change. It is the law Of
life.
Second, / ask It because / think
I am qualified by experience, educa-
ton, and natural endowment, not
only to fill the office, but possibly
to improve the service.
Third, u ask this favor 1t your

Carville, La, Oct. 24.-(P)-Sci-
Snce is taking the terror out of one
If the worlds most dreaded dis
lases.
Regarded since the dawn Of his
tory as living death. leprosy APP
parently is being brought within
The list Of durable maledies, and the
leper is being given firm ground for
aope.
"Unclean!" the cry of fear, hor-
ror and revulsion has come down
the centuries. The fear has always
been exaggerate to q greater or
less degree, but has cen non-the-
less real in the minds of victims and
those about them.
Within the last few weeks, eight
patients have been released on pro-
baton from the National Leprosa-
rum here, sent back to their homes
no longer a menace to the public
health. Since the institution was
established by the United States
public health service seven years
ago, 81 have been released, and only
one has suffered 4 relapse. Those
released recently had been under
treatment from two to seven years,
and about 400 others remain.
Develop Derivatives
Many Of the psychological,
chemical, pathological and clinical
studies which have contributed to
the advances made in treatment of
the disease in recent years have
been conducted by health service
workers in Hawaii. Their principal
achievement has been the develop
ment of chemical derivatives from
chaulmoogra oil. obtained from an
oriental tree, which have increased
It's effectiveness in combating the
leprosy germ. The treatment was
rather painful, however, until the
specialists here developed a method
pf administering the injections with
,. local anesthetic.
The scientific studies also have
established that the disease is COM
,nunioated only by direct and usual
~ prolonged contact with = victim
Casual contact, the Investigators
found, is not 50 dangerous as it has
been regarded, and they suspect
that nasal secretions probably have
most to do with transmission Of the
germs.
These germs, in form and appear.
ance, are extremely difficult to dis.
tinguish from those of tuberculosis
another plague which has beset
mankind - and to a much greater
extent-as far back as history goes
pnd has begun to yield to the ad.
sances Of science only in recent
gears. The resources of a skilled
bacteriologist are required to iden-
tify them.
Statistical studies conducted in
connection with the scientific work
indicate that the number Of cases
of leprosy in the United States ex-
ceeds 1000. The disease, it has
been learned, is most likely to ap.
pear in tropical climates, although

corded in Norway.

$106, 900 Insurance
Suit Goes to Court

Great Falls, Mont, Oct. 24.-(AP)
Sheridan county's suit against the
National Surety company for reim-
bursement on its claim for approxi-
mately $106,000 alleged to have been
lost by robbery Of the treasurer's Of
flee two years ago, was expected to
reach jury in federal district
court today.
The treasurer's office was robbed
November 80, 1925, the last taxpay-
ing day, the county asserts, by two
masked men who entered after all
the force except treasurer Eng Tor
stenson and his deputy, Miss Anna
Hovde, had left. The treasurer tes-
titled that the robbers made him and
his deputy lie face down on the floor
while they looted the vault Of all
cash and securities. Sheriff Rodney
Salisbury testified that he traced the
robbers to Reserve, about Is miles,
but there lost the trail.
The robbers have never been APP
pretended nor has any Of the stolen
property been located. The Surety
company, which bonded the treasur-
er, required proof Of the robbery and
the county went into court to estab-
lish its claim. Defense witnesses as
serted bonds given by banks to Sc
cure county deposits would have
been more than ample to protect de-
posts Of the approximately $4,000
cash in the vault at the time Of the
robbery. Treasurer Torstenson said
he deposited checks % tax payments
were made but, because Of the limit
ed security furnished by the banks,
was compelled to retain the cash in
his vault. Testimony required six
days, almost half Of which time the
treasurer was on the stand. Attor-
neys yesterday discussed legal prob
lens which have risen during pre-
sentation Of the case and today were
making their, principal arguments.
