The new dams are made of very soft paper rolled to the desired form and show yerying degrees of absorptive power.

"To control the river IS to control the mountain" This ancient proverb was guiding principle in the Jap anese policy of erosion control and torrent regulation as long ago as 1883. Since that time reforestation has been applied extensively through out Japan as a factor of prime im- portance in the protection of the tre- mendously valuable rice fields of the empire, and in insuring the perma- neney and full utility of the water shed resource. The United States can no longer fail to heed the conserva- tion principle advanced in this old proverb.

Disclosures To Be Made
About Malmgren's Fate,
FIRST TALE DOUBTED
Unconfirmed Report Says
Italian Wore Clothing Of
Dead Meteorologist.
By EUGENE LYONS
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

Y
MOSCOW, July 23-Further mys-
terry regarding the march across the
polar ice of Professor Finn Malm-
gren and his two companions of the
dirigible Italia was promised today
by dispatch to the newspaper
Necherny Moskawa from its cor
respondent aboard the Russian res.
cue ship Krassin.
The story is unconfirmed.
1t will be recalled that Captain
Adalberto Mariana and Captain Fe-
lippo Zappi of tine itaiia were res
cued from an ice floe by the Kras-
sin. They reported that in trying
to make land they had left Malm-
gren, the Italia s meteoroIogist, a.
lone on the ice to die when he
could advance further. They said
also that they had been without
food for two weeks.
The Necherny Moskawa corres-
Fondent quoted the Krassin s physi-
/ elan as saying that Mariana and
Zappi had not been without food for
more than five days.
Iappi, the correspondent said, was
wearing Malmgren S clothes when
he was rescued.
Wore Such Clothing
1t was added that Zappi wore
three coats, one Malmgren's, had
on three pairs of fur boots while
! Mariana, whose legs were frozen,
lay on the ice scantily clad and
! wearing thin socks.
Mariana, the correspondent as
serted, expected to die and had Civ
en- Zappi permission to eat his body.
The mystery of Malmgren S death
the correspondent said, continued
greatly to excite the crew of the
krassin and the other survivors of
the Italia who were rescued from
an ice floe camp which Malmgren,
Zappi, and Mariana had left to try
| to reach land
1t was said at committee head
! quarters that there was no informa-
tion available to the committee to
substantiate the Necherny Moskawa
dispatch regarding Zappi.
