is expressed in a review OF the prog
ress made by the Northwest agrlcuI-

He said that the farmers them
selves had brought about the most ei-

stressed these changes which farmers
have made in the last eight years:
They nave pruned down expenses

activities.
They have mechanical their indi-

OF farm machinery.
They have made many important
adjustments in both the kind ana
quality OF produce marketed.
They have made progress toward
cnrtailment OF ravages Of both plant
and animal diseases which annually
make heavy inroads into their net re-
turns.
Farmers supply Own Relief
TT cannot quite be said that al

favorable to agriculture are erased"
said Mr.. Haws. but it can be stated
and proved that the farm industry IN

WASHINGTON, March 21. = A striking figure was lost to the pub lie life of this country March 4 when William Cabell Bruce turned from the United States Senate to the peace and quiet of his beloved library
 For the senior Senator from Maryland, although he served only one term in that body, was recog- nized as one of the leaders. His enmity of the prohibition law and his devotion to the cause of re- iigious tolerance set him apart. In- deed, it is 6 common saying on capitol hill that Bruce couldn't pos sibly make a speech without bring ing in one or both of those ques- tions.
 It is doubtful if any Senator worked harder or was more con- Gcicntious than the Marylander Except for illness he always was on hand at every session, and he would stick it out until adjourn ment. Then he would return to his office and tackle his corre- spondence. Never was letter left over until the next day. Ere quently he could be found in his office until as late as o'clock at night dictating and signing letters. All this in spite of the fact that he is nearly 70 years old.

PARIS, March 21.-France has rushed to the defense of the oyster against attacks by British medical scientists. F. Borde, a French oyster mag nate, on behalf of the repub- lie, takes vigorous issue with the British position that oys- ter vitamins are of little im- portance.
 The research work, said M. Borde, of Madame Randuin and Dr. Portier of the Sor- bonne had proved to a skep- tical world that the oyster con- tained large quantity of vita min c. He added that Am erican experiments had dis closed the existence of vitamins A and B.

 Several radio beacons are already in operation along the coast of the United States and I'think that for eign governments will erect stations at other points. Greenland should have a radio beacon as well as the Azores, with additional ones along the Atlantic coast in this country as well as along the Euro poan coast. With every ship in

 At the present time stations send ut radio beams along the Ameri- an coast day and night. Vessels 7ith radio compasses can pick up hese stations and accurately ob- ain their fixed position by plan hing on a chart the direction of
The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-03-21

the beams. The position of the vessel on the chart is at the inter section of two or more of those lines.
 When I went to the assistance Of the Antinoe, the master gave me his position at the time he sent the sos. As I proceeded to that spot. I found that he had drifted. The radio compass on the Presi- dent Roosevelt indicated that he was 50 miles away from the given position, so I changed my course and found him. The Florida was also off her position, being 150 miles away.
 Rarely ever do I make a voyage that I do not use the radio com pass in the safe and practical naW- gation of the ship. When trans Atlantic liners run on a regular schedule with the promptnesS of railroad trains the radio compass is one of the most indispensa- ble instruments. I firmly believe that the maritime law should com pei every ship not only to carry a radio compass but to have three operators aboard ship while at sea so that a man is at the key day and night on a regular eight hour watch.
 Several airplanes have already successfully negotiated the Allan tic. Aviation is also making rapid strides and some day it will not be uncommon to have a regular trans Atlantic air service. These planes, carrying radio equipment, will find these radio beacons estab- lished for ships of great value in their navigation. But good deal of study must yet be given to upper air currents before trans Atlantic aviation will reach a de- gree of safety.
 I think that airplanes will prove more practical in use across the ocean thar dirigibles, because the former are faster and when suffi- ciently developed, will probably suf- fer less in storm than zeppe lin. Storms will always be a haz- ard, just as they are now Natures clements have wrought havoc with the staunchest of ships and prob ably always will, so that only planes use. There are many other fac tors to be considered, however, and the day of a regular transatlantic plane service, even as a supple mentary steamship service, is still some distance away, in my opinion. A steamship at sea is small world in itself. In the old days vessels crossed the ocean and off cers. crew and passengers never had word from the outside world. It was only when they reached a port that they knew what was in the news Today, radio brings crew and passengers into communi- cation with their relatives and friends during any part of the voy- age in any part of the world. News despatches are received every night. On the larger passenger liners these news items are printed in the daily paper, which is at the breakfast tables. Stock quotations of the chief issues dealt in on the New York Stock Exchange also are quot ed. On some voyages we carry bankers, brokers and traders. They can ask for a quotation on a stock and in a few minutes the answer is received and within another few minutes, if they feel so inclined, an order to buy or sell can be put through.
