WINNER OF NOBEL PRIZE
WARNS OF MALTA FEVER
Prof. Charles Nicolle Says Scien-

on Disease.

TUNIS, Algeria (P).-Malta fever is
the disease of the future on which
scientists must concentrate, warns Prof.
Charles Nicolle, recipient of the 1928
Nobel prize for medicine and director
of the Pasteur Institute here.
His research and work in prevention
of Malta fever and typhus earned the
Nobel award He discovered vaccine
treatment of Malta fever.
Prof. Nicolle is convinced, he says,
that the germs of the fever, called
also Mediterranean fever, come from
goats milk and its products. The fever
IS spreading southwark throughout
African colonies and has also appeared
In Denmark, following in the path
of suspected goats milk cheeses. The
disease is one of long duration, taking
the form of recurrent waves of fever
which sap up the strength OF the VIC
TINS
Due in part to activities Of Prof.
Nicolle, Tunis is today considered one

Faces CharEe in District of Columbia.
While the courts decision frees Cum
ningham. in 20 far as the Senate'S war
rant is concerned, there is still another
proceeding against him growing out OF
the same case.
Subsequent to the issuance OF the
Senate's warrant the matter was taken
before the Federal grand jury OF the
District of Columbia and Cunningham
was indicted on contempt charge.
When the warrant in this case was
served on him he likewise started an
appeal which is still pending before the
Circuit Court of Appeals. No decision
was rendered in that case today.
Majority Decision Filed.
Judges Joseph Burlington and j. War
rem Davis Joined in writing the majority
opinion by which Cunningham was re-
leased. under the Senate warrant. Judge
Victor B. Woolley presented dissenting
opinion. -
The majority opinion takes the view
that the warrant for Cunnigham's arrest
was not because of his refusal to appear
but on the ground that he was in con-
tempt for refusing to give all the details
asked him by the Reed committee.

Moore.

Moore 500 or 80 days for reck-
less driving. The man demanded

NOEL SMITHS RESIGNATION.

The resignation of Noel ". Smith as General Manager of the Alaska Railroad, while not com ing as a surprise as rumors that such step was nending had been in circulation for weeks is cause for regret The progress made by the Government t-owned rail carrier under his admin istration during the four years of hls tenure was notable And when consideration is taken of the fact that a great deal of politics enters into the almost every affair connected with the road if becomes very striking achievement Its management while not confronted with many of the problems faced by privately owned and operated roads, labors under many that are inherently peculiar to any enterprise owned and operated by the Government. It is made the butt of dissatisfied local politicians, is subjected to incorporate criticisms, has it's actions re- viewed by higher authorities whose knowledge of raroading is almost wholly lacking, and is forced to depend upon legislative appropriations for funds only for reconstruction and main tenance but also for large part of it's operating finances Even a Job would be hard-put to main tain an equable disposition under such condi- tons and there are not many Jobs in the rail- road game
 The Alaska Railroad has been operating since 1921 Since that time it has had four general managers. Col. Mears, holdover from construe- tion days the first. He was succeeded by Col James q. Steese whose tenure was brief Next came Col Lee H. Landis. MT Smith was the fourth With o. F. ohlson, whose appoint ment announced recently by Secretary Work the procession continues. With the history of the past fresh in mind. the query that naturally arises in the minds of most Alaskans is Will General Manager Ohlson, too go the way of his predcessors?
 Under Mr Smith the railroad cut it's operat- ing expenses and increased its revenues. It i'm proved it's physical properties materially The management efficient but the strain of try ing to operate the road business-like basis of having to defend himself from protests made to Washington from time to time by the dis gruntled, of having to fight for money to protect the Governments investment, was too much for MT Smith and ill-health caused his resignation

Figures from the automotive division of the Department of Commerce places the number of automobiles in the world at 29, % GOO which gives about machine to every 64 persons passing the ratio estimated world population of 900 100000. Except for the great number of cars owned in the United States, the ratio would be much larger.

Which Is More Important?
Steward Gateway.l


 More tonnage per mile would be freighted in over the niamna Bay-Iamna village road than any other road in the Territory providing the present road a fracticn over 10 miles-and which is a good one-were widened and small amount of grading done. This seems to be rather a broad statement. but are taking the words of West ward citizens being absolutely truthful.
 The first year at least 100 tons would go over the 10 mile stretch but it is pointed out that the second year would show tremendous in crease for the hundreds of tons which have been for years past shipped into that vast country via Seattle and Bristol Bay would be routed over this road. With the improvement mentioned, autos would carry the burden.
 It not many years ago that citizens in the Iliamna district paid as high as $20O a ton for delivery of their freight When the Alaska Road Commission built the present fine road but which, however, is too small for ve- hices freight rates cut exactly in half $100 ton.
 Not meaning to detract from other splendid projects, and in this particular instance the Me Knley Park roads mentioned, but it would seem that the need of the Iliamna road i'm provement is much worthy than roads for the so-called idle rich' This matter of comparison only and do not wish words to be misconstrued. But do wish that the time will be here when this Westward project may be carried forward.
