Peculiar Needs Of Valley

Farm relief for the Valley has some angles peculiar
20 this section.
The same thing probably could be said OF the corn
belt. the wheat belt or any Of a dozen otner parts
az the nation. II is a common thing TO consider your
own problems as entirely different to those OF other
persons or places.
But while this is true, and while II is certain there
are MANY phases OF the Valleys problem which are
identical with those Of other sections. there appears 70
- real reason TO believe that a different handling VIII
be required In this section.
To begin with. agricultural development In the
Valley has far outstripped industrial and business oe-
velournent. The section as at present organized y Y
overwhelmingly agricultural that the outside worio
rr,,st be depended upon largely to consume the pro-
ducts Of the fertile lands.
That Is to say. the Valley at present Is engaged In
.h,npsne raw material. Manufacturers are needed 70
turn produce OF the soil into finished material
Cotton mills should be located in the Valley ana
The 100 ooo-bale crop should be sent out as finished
cloth.
Canning plants should be provided to care Tor q
large part OF the fruit and vegetables groWn-to AZ
least use culls and overripe fruit and vegetables which
are unfit for shipping.
Then there should be any number of small factories
producing things used in the valley-to supply q local
demand.
This would mean a larger local population and
sreater consumption Of farm products at home, with
a consequently correspondingly smaller quantity OF
uroduce TO ship to other sections Of the United states.
An oyersupply OF any vegetable or fruit on the
r,arkets ~ the United states sends down the price OF
that commodity. II the surplus was consumed az
home the farmers would receive better prices Tor the
portion Of the crop used at home and also for that
entering competition with produce from other points.
Another thing which would help the farming prob
lem In the Valley is capitalization OF all the resources
OF the section.
The principal assets of the Valley are fertile soil and
fine climate.
At present the soil IS being made use OF and the
climate, q potential producer Of great wealth, is being
entirely neglected.
Climate Of the Valley will attract tourists from
all parts Of the country provided they are told OF 1t
truthfully, and II entertainment features are provid-
Cd to keep them here once they arrive.
This can be done with profit to those who provide the
needed features.
OF course. these things vii not solve the problems
of overproduction. Of inefficient marketing or any one
serve the lesson the worries OF the Valley agriculturist,
OF a dozen other Ills but attention given them viii

Washington Letter
BY HERBERT C. PLUMMER

WASHINGTON. May 2S-well does Prof Charles
Z. Munroe remember the day prior TO Americas entry
into the world war when the capitol in washington
was rocked by a bomb.
He has a good reason. It was one of the very few
times in his SO years of experience with explosives
when he could arrive at q definite conclusion as 70 tne
method employed BY the bomber in setting off the
blast.
Prof. Munroe is chief explosive chemist Of the bu-
reau of mines. He now is 80 years old. Dean OF e%-
plosives information" is how ore great European
journal described him. Governments and scientific
societies all over the world have heaped honors on
him.
Upon Prof. Munroe's shoulders rests the response
bility of clearing up the mystery surrounding many
explosions. He rendered valuable aid IN clearing up
the explosion at the foot of Wall street during the
war days. He also investigated blasts at various mu-
nitions factories during the same period.
"
But he regards the bombing of the capitol In Wash
ington as perhaps the most interesting OF his many
experiences.
The reception room of the United States senate
had been reduced to a mass Of wrecksge. The huge
mirrors had been shattered. The chandeliers had been
broken into bits.
Prof. Munroe was called in to investigate.
At a glance he was satisfied that dynamite was the

charge set Off In vain did he search through the
~wreckage for bits OF ~tell-tale m~etal-parts Of a de-
tonator-or for bits Of wire.
Not a single clue was to be found. Yet Prof. Nun
roe was satisfied that dynamite was used.
Within a few hours after the bombing of the cap
itol, police in New York picked up a young German
who claimed that he was an instructor at Cornell. He
had made an attempt on the life Of J. p. Morgan the
younger.
After severe gruelling the suspect admitted that
he was the one who planted the bomb in washington.
Prof. Munroe went to New York to get the details
CAREFUL PLAN
For a considerable length of time the bomber had
deavor to discover the most effective method Of &C
complishing his purpose. Arriving at q conclusion, ne
procured the necessary supplies and headed for wash
ington.
Once in the national capital. he sought out the
presidents private entrance to the chambers Of the
United States senate.
He chose the reception room OF the senate as the
most appropriate place to plant his bomb. With in
finite care he hid the deadly missile that he had pre-
pared in secret at his home laboratory.
And then he went to the station, bought his ticket
and returned to New York.
Subsequent events were just rs he had planned.
When the bomb exploded he was speeding to New
York. Not a single trace of his crime remained.
Prof Munroe was satisfied. Many times he had
conducted the same experiment In his laboratory. But
it was the first time any such practical use had been
demonstrated 70 MIN.

Health and Right Living

Only a few years ago we had
practically or no knowledge OF the
effects Of many infections. III this
matter. science has made great
strides in the past years.
Diseased tonsils and abscesSed
teeth were given attention only be-
cause they caused pain. The pos
slble connection between disease uf
these organs and the average case
Of rheumatism or auto-tntoxlcation
would have caused q smile.
Experiment and careful observa-
ton have shown that the pockets
or the tonsils. the roots or the teeth
and the nasal sinuses are ideal
breeding places for millions OF
germs Of many varieties. Not only
are they germ-breeding aud puS-
producing. but their products quick
ly travel TO the blood stream. in
this way. the infection spreads 10

 Katherine King Fogarty, being duly sworn deposes and says: made the acquaintance of John tGene) Tunney in Hot Springs in October 1924. Our relations at all times thereafter were such as in no way to cast the slightest criticism or discredit upon him.
 "I have no claim upon him of any kind and never did have. l had hoped to continue to enjoy his friendship, but that no longer seems possible for either of us.
 "1n the past have said things about him to my lawyers that l now deeply regret, because l know of nothing I could say that would cast the slightest discredit upon him. and should my name ever be used with or without my knowledge in the fu ture In any way to reflect in the slightest manner upon him l wish to make this solemn declaration under oath that may be published at any time, that he is under no obliga- 'tion whatsoever to me and never vas. and that his character and con- duct to my knowledge are of the hest'.'
 Mrs. Fogarty, who formerly lived in Fort Worth. Texas, now makes her home at the San Carlos hotel here The clerk at the hotel said she was out of the city and that neither .her whereabouts nor the time of her return were known.
 Her first husband was FIX. King. They separated and after his death she married John S. Fogarty a plumbing contractor of Fort Worth. from whom she obtained a divorce in 1925. She has ten-year-old son.
 In her complaint she charges that five days after she obtained her di- ,orce from Fogarty. she accepted a proposal of marriage from Tunney. The complaint ayers that thereafter he again proposed and that she lis now willing to comply with the re- quest"

DEbEN7URES BLOCK
 ALL LEGISLATION
Sugar Tariff Also Bars Plth Of Congressional Action

Washington, May e2 R-The eA- port debenture controversy and the dispute over sugar duties stood out today as the big stumbling blocks in the way of legislative proEress on the two measures-farm, relief and tariff readjustment-whi top the administration program for the spe- cial session of congress.
 As a result, while the senate waa in position to proceed with its dis. cussion of the census-reapportion. ment bill, the house was still en- gagged with general debate on the tariff measure and the joint confer. ence committees of the two cham bers on the farm proposal remain. ed In a deadlock at the very begin- nink of their deliberations.
 Republican leaders in the house were hopeful. however. that they would be able to shut off the gener- al tariff debate late today or tomor- row and start consideration of amendments. The latter has been held up pending agreement by the republican majority on a special rule to fix date for a final vote and give precedence in the mean time to amendments introduced by members of the ways and means committed.
