,ations with President Hoover.
Although comment from the white
house was lacking. 1t was taken Tor
granted that such = visit from the

American chief executive. The sug.
eestions gained immediate approval
In circles familiar with Anglo Ameri.

the opinion that "closl cooperation,
between Mr.. Macdonald and Prest-

Wibaux Monument
Endures Calamity

Many have seen the monument OF
Pierre Wibaux that stands on a hill
to the west Of the city that bears
his name but few have seen another
monument to the east that is equal
ly as enduring.
More than 80 years ago, Pierre
Wibaux, owner of one of Montana's s
great ranches, foresaw calamity if q
flood ever swept down on the town
that bears his name.
Wibaux, capitol of the cattle coun-
try, had been founded on the sandy
banks of Beaver creek, a sluggish
trickle of water feeling it's way
down sandy creek bed.
Spring freshets transformed the
brooklet into a torrent that ragged
and gnawcd at the cluster of saloons,
shacks and general stores in its path.
To divert these annual rampages,
the baron of the ranges constructed
a concrete dixie. The dixie served
its purpose for many years keeping
the stream within its channel.
1t wasn't a massive dixie. It was
puny compared to the great grade
of gravel and rock that the railway
constructed just north of it, and at
right angles.
Pierre Wibaux never dreamed of
a seven inch rainfall. When it came
Thursday night and Friday, it re.
leased a wall Of water that rose 10
feet above Wibaux's rampant. II
tore huge 18 ton concrete slabs from
beneath the railway bridge. II
ripped yawning holes through the
railway embankment. Nobody ex.
pccted to see Wibaux's work again
But Wibaux's monument was
built we'll. It is almost buried in
mud but it will continue to protect
the sprawling town from normal
Overflows.

fer as to its significance.

On the one hand, some reports have
given the dinner the color OF q ma

posed leadership of Alfred E. Smith

would make It the occasion to express
publicly to their constituents. partic.
ularly those In the south. their dis
approval Of continuation Of that lead
ership by being conspicuously absent.
On the other hand. the official re-
ports have insisted the dinner Is
strictly q local affair at which Raskob
and 6house will. naturally enough. be
prominent speakers. Furthermore.
Robert N. Harper. president OF the
jefferson Democratic association
which is giving the dinner, asserts
more Of the party's members in con-

Captain Albin Ahrenberg Forces
Plane to Limit Of Its
Endurance
IS SHORT OF DESTINATION
Original Plans Called for Stop
at Reykjavik and Hop
to New York

Reykjavik. Iceland. June l0.-(F)-
The Swedish transoceanic plane Sver-
ige, which started on q flight to New
York from Stockholm yesterday. was
safely moored at Skaptaros. southeast
Iceland, in good condition today.
The steamer Erja from Reykjavik
reached Skaptaros this morning and
reported that the Sverige only lacked
gasoline. The Danish government
vessel Fyllia was expected this after
noon with fuel and the Swedish air
men hoped that their machine would
be ready for the l50-mile hop to
Reykjavik later in the day. Weather
conditions were reported good.
Pushed to Limit
Pushing his transoceanic plane, the
Sverige, to the last inch Of its en-
durance. Captain Albin Ahrenberg
landed just before midnight at skap-
taros. southeast Iceland. just missing
alighting in the wave tossed Green
land sea.
The forced landing put him down
$50 miles short Of his destination, this
city, which was to have been his Sec
ond stop on s transatlantic flight
which had its beginning at Stock
holm. Sweden. and began its second
lap 1t Bergen. Norway. yesterday.
Captain Ahrenberg's original inten-
ton had been to refuel here and
speed on toward New York. stopping
next at Ivigut. Greenland. Brief
radio messages received here from the
plane indicated at least some small
repairs would have to be made which
would delay its arrival here and per-
haps cause postponement Of the
transatlantic venture.
Flashed by Radio
News Of the planes trouble was
flashed to the world by its radio late
in the evening after it had passed
over the Farce Islands. midway be-
tween the mainland and the island.
The plane asked aid. saying q gaso-
line feed pipe had burst. Previous dis
patches had said cold adverse winds
were holding back the flight.
A message received at 1923 p. m
g. M. r. (6:23 p. m. E. 8. T.. Sunday
said the plane had been forced down
ct Skaptaros because OF engine
trouble. skaptaros Is on the sen on
the far southeastern edge Of Iceland
A message received from the sver-
ige after its landing said further pros.
poets for further flight were uncer.
tain. The head winds already had
put the flight behind It's schedule
which was designed TO demonstrate
the feasibility Of the route for com.
mercial air service. Delay Of at least
/ day appeared certain today.

spending rate for the lode mining in- dustry of the Territory and only about one-eightth of that for the lode gold-ining group. During this period about 40 per cent of all full-time mine workers were engaged in con- nection with placer mining.
 "The second feature tending to re- duce the fatality rate in Alaska is the high percentage of mine workers who speak and understand English and whose general intelligence and ex- perience in mining is above that of similar workers in the States. It has been determinen that in some of the major mining areas of the States nearly 50 per cent of the workmen are non-English-speaking foreigners and that among them the fatality rate is exceedingly high when con- pared with sections where mine en- ploye sare English-speaking. The reasons for this are obvious"
 Two hundred and thirty-two men were killed in all Alaska mines in the 15-year period ending with 1927, 164 being nilled prior to and 6S since 1921. There were 19 fatal accidents in 1927 and 1928. "The most strining features revealed by a consideration of various types of mines in Alaska for the period 1921-1927," says the report, "are the exceptionally low fa- tality rate for coal mines and the very high fatality rate for gold-lode mines. Considering the natural haz- ard roal mines are usually thohght to posses, the record made at the coal mines of Alaska during the past de- cade is remarkable. For the entire seven-year period ending with 1925 these mines were operated with an average crew of POT full-time work CTS and without a single fatality"

 It is generally conceded that in the interests of agricultural advancement and the raising of livestock, the bear should go, if necessary. However, the opinion is held by many that to exter minate the brown hears from the farming and cattle-grazing districts of Kodiak Island would scarcely, di- minish to the slightest degree the abundance of these huge animals that would still be left on the island, for the sportsmen, not to mention, the bear so fthe Alaska peninsula, which outnumber those of Kodiak.

MINE ACCIDENTS FEWER IN
 NORTH THAN IN TILE STATES

Statistics gathered over period of, 17 years showathat fatal accidents in Alaska mines "per 1000 full-tlme workers,", to be nearly 30 per cent less than among mine workers em- ployeds in thes continentaL United States. This information is brought out in report made to- Governor George A. Parks by B. U. Stewart, supervising mining engineer
 There ares two reasons for this, Mr. Stewart says. ''The first and most important of these features is the high percentage of the total number of mine workers in the Territory who are employed in the placer mining branch of tn eindustry ln which the accident hazard is materially less than iir other branches. During the seven-year period ending with 1927 the rate of fatalities per l,OOO fuii- time workers in the placer industy vas less than one-fourth the corre-

It happened even in the Vlc- torian era, although people were very careful not to mention the fact. And there is not an dnever was anything disgraceful in the. fact, although the Victorians contrived to throw cloud ofa shame across the existence of sex in human beings.
 When James E. Wilkinson, assist ant United States attorney, told a Brooklyn jury. on Tuesday that Mrs Mary Ware Dennett's pamphlet, "Ths Sex Side of Life-".was pure and sina- pie smut" he implied, by his own logic, that every parent is smutty' that sex is smutty. that the system by which the race is perpetuaed IS smuty. That, it seems to us,, IS smutty logic; it s.sthe attitude o1 mind which has, created fear and shame about sex, which. brings chil- dren up in the dark, unnecessarily uniformed and hence, often, morbid fy. curious.

It would be better Ii they learned from their own parents aided by sue hbooklets as AThe Sea Side of Life" We hope that higher court will object to Judge Burrows exclusion of what seems relevant evi dence; but if it turns out that the law bars Mrs. Dennett's pamphlet then the law should be changed.
