SURVEY BUREAU
 SHY OF FUNDS,
 REDUCES FORCE
Geological Survey Discon- tinues Office of Metal
 Mining Engineer

Effective today, the position of Metal Mining Engineer, held for the past four years by J. c. Shep. ard, has been discontinued by the U. s. Geological Survey on in- structions from Washington, it was announced today by B. D. Stewart, Mining Supervisor for Alaska. MT. Shepard has accept ed position on the engineering staff of the Anaconda Mining Company at Butte, Mont, and will leave about July 1, to begin his ,new work.
 During his entire service with the bureau in Alaska, Mir Shep- ard has rendered valuable and efficient service and it is regret table that it was found necessary to discontinue the position he has filled" MT. Stewart said today. Lack of funds to finance the work was responsible for the action of the bureau, he added.
 MT. Shepard's work has been largely directed to giving practi- cal assistance to small operators and prospectors. It was conduct ed on cooperative basis be- tween the Territory and the Geo logical Survey. The latter took care of salary expenditures while Territorial appropriations were available for field expenses. In this manner, it was possible to give engineering advice to opera tors unable to maintain an engi- neering staff and to inspect pros poets and advise prospectors on problems of development, etc.
 During the past year a pro gram of development of mineral sections through cooperation be, tween the Forest Service, the Territory and the Geological Sur .yey was launched as means Of stimulating prospecting. The main features of this was trail con- struction into areas known to be mineralized coincident with gen eral geological studies. These studies were mainly made by MT Shepard. Plans for continuing this program during the current year are well under way, it was said. and it had been intended that MT. Shepard should do the geological work.
 Necessarily this part of the pro gram will be somewhat restricted as result of the reduction in the Geological Surveys force in the Territory. However, MT. Stewart will endeayor to carry out as much of the programmed work as is possible. He will be in the field as much as possible. doing all of the work personally that he is able to do.

Good, Hooyer's National manager, who declared that an examination of the h. diana primary election returns shows that Hoover carried "a number of agricultural counties" 7" He said that in some farming townships he ran up a vote of more than two to one.
 Good said that the failure of Hoover to carry more agricultural counties was due to the fact that in the rural districts it was more difficult to complete good politi- cal organizations, and Hoover had to overcome the personality and popularity of Senator James F. Watson"

A visit to the Sharkey training grounds on the eve of his departure for New York and his first bout sincs he was counted out under Dempsey last summer today produced an ex- planation of the oppressive silence which the Boston boxer has main- tained through his usually talkative training periods.
 Time was when Sharkey's training periods were audible. He discussed Maloney and even Dempsey freely. For many months he maintained that the Dempsey knockout blow was foul. then he stopped talking and has remained silent. Johnny Buckley explained the situation after introducing Silent Jack Sharkey."
 Yes. Not a word now. Jack is through with the blood and thunder stuff They ragged him so much in New York before and after the Ma loney and Dempsey fights that he has quit that stuff. And now they're sore. Now they miss the rough stuff. But he's all over that. or course he's not going to admit that any body can beat him. but he's through with the wordy noises.''
 The only other discernihle change in sharkey is a changed style. He now leads with his right instead of the left hand. In view of the fact that he forced last falls postpone ment of the Heeney bout on the
