WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-Pio-
neers of the air lanes, noted avia~
ton experts of the world, and scien-
lists joined today at the second
session Of the International Civil
Aeronautics conference to combat
the common enemies of flying-fog,
storm, and darkness.
Safety in air flights depends upon
accurate weather forecasting. rapid
communication, and improved radio
beacons, delegates said.
Weather forecasting and report
ing methods must be improved if
Atlantic air traffic is to be-
come commonplace, J. G. Hunsaker,
vice-president of the Goodyear
Zeppelin Company, Akron, o., told
the conference.
He suggested international CO.
operation in collecting and ex-
changing weather data from ships
at sea.
1t is imperative that weather
science keep pace with advancement
in aeronautics, Lieutenant F. w.
Reichelderfer, United States naval
meterologist at Lakehurst air
station, declared.
Willis r. Gregg, senior meter
ologist of the United States weather
bureau, suggested establishment of
better "ground-to-plane" radio
communication.
IF pilot starts out with good
weather forecast and expected and
fog suddenly develops at his
terminal, the pilot could be in
formed by radio and either land or
turn back" Gregg said.

EXPEDITION TO

SEA TREASURE
Divers Will Attempt to Take
Millions From Sunken
Ship.
By United Press

bU CHLbcU FTESS
SEATTLE, Dec. 13.-The sum of
100000 in gold lies deep in the
cold waters Of one of the many
passes around Douglas Island on the
Inside passage to Alaska.
1t is the dream and hope of two
Seattle men-George Henderson and
H. G. Koller-to recover that for
tune.
Twenty-six years ago one cold,
foggy September night, the big
Alaskan steamer Islander slowly
made its way through the treacher-
GUS channels.
Aboard the craft was a capacity
load of passengers, men and women
coming home from the northern
gold fields. Men and women who
had won fortunes, in conquering the
hardshipS of the north.
In the small office Of the purser
there was more than 100000 in
gold. The ships safe had been
filled to overlooking and some of
the vast wealth was stacked in
boxes and in sacks on the floor.
Suddenly there came a sharp
shock, followed by four short blasts
on the ships whistle.
The Islander had struck a sub
merged reef around Douglas Island
She partially filled, but the rising
tide carried the Islander off the
reef and she drifted for three miles
before sinking with her precious
cargo and seventy-eight human
lives. The vessel plunged to the
bottom-310 feet-far below the

City Sanitarian Points to
Danger of Indoor
Life.

"If you live a hot air existence
and don't provide moisture do not
grumble when you get cold.'
This slogan was adopted by DR..
Herman G. Morgan, city sanitarian,
as result of the wave of respiratory
infections, sore Threats, la grippe
and cases bordering on influenza.
During the last month about three
of every five persons in the city
have suffered from one of the dis
orders, DR.. Morgan estimates.
Present waves of respiratory dis
eases which invaded the civilized
world during the last twenty years
have been influenced in frequency
by present day methods of heating
and ventilation.
Indoor Existence Basic Cause
IF one surveys the mounting
peak of such diseases you can't help
being impressed with the upward
trend both in cases and death rates
as more and more of the worlds
population live an indoor existence.
"Dry overheated atmosphere de-
prived of humidity continually Saps
the protective secretions of the
mucous membrane of the nose and
throat and makes these structures
readily susceptible to cold germs
and other organisms.
1.-THE precautionary measure of
having moisture available in the
home, office and public meeting
places, will aid materially in in
creasing resistance against respira-
tory infection.
ANY one who takes a cold during
the epidemic should go to bed at
once and not make the mistake of
trying TO wear out the cold. The
prevailing type differs from the
ordinary cold in that it causes a
more severe toxic condition and
goes into the Sines and inner ear
if not checked.
I'LL effects can be prevented by
remaining indoors and in bed and
keeping the bodily temperature
even"
