New York, Nov. (UP) - She south sea islands arc not the idyI- lie place tho writers of romance make them out to be, Clifford Pin chot said yesterday after his return from a 1o,o00-milo scientific and pleasure cruise.
 But idyllic or not. they have cast their spell over the tall, 1.-the Penn sylvanian who was governor of that state for years and is known around the world as an authority on for ostry and a foremost advocate of conservation of natural resources.

INDIAN ARGUMENT
 IS ENDED BY LAW
"Jirgah" Is Held Between Tribes
 Of BIoOdthirSty Warriors

Washington. D. C., Aug. 23-Re- gently a jirgah was held in the edge of the Tirah.
 To the average news reader this statement probably has little mean ing. To the student of Indian at- fairs it is an announcement that gives food for thought.
 It means that an argument De- tween the Afridi and the Orakzai some of the worlds most blood thirsty warriors, has been ended by law and not by blood. In the north west frontier province of India, where people build houses with towers wherein they can sit and take pot shots at their neighbors and relations and husbands former ly cut off the noses of tiirtatious wives. jirgahs or conferences are superseding blood feuds and killings.
 Live in Maze of Mountains
 "The Afridi and Orakzai, between whom the jirgah was held, reside in summer in the Tirah, a maze Of mount ldlllS SOulll oI lllC MI pN' Pass" says a bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters or the National Geographic society. Only a few Aridi live in this re- zion; but it is the summer abode of all the Orakzai, who are divided into the two main sects of Moham- mechanism, the Shiahs and the Sun mites. The former pay reverence to the Sayids. or descendants of Ali, the son-in-law of Mohammed. The Sunnites are orthodox Moslems who respect the influence of their priests, or mullahs. They adhere to the main part of the Koraniv laws.
 The summer climate in the Tirah mountains is delightful, but the win ters are bitterly cold. The district

 Frontier Province, and has thriv- ing export trade in cordage, ropes.
 raw fiber, fruit, vegetables and
 nuts, hides and skins, leather mats
 and timber Most of the Orakza,
 are agriculturists.
 Women Wear Red Trousers
 "Only about third of the total
 area of the North West Frontier
 Province is under British jurisdic-
 ton. The rest is tribal territory.
 The Pathans, as all the tribes of
 the Province are usually called, are
 as wild looking as their mountain
 ous background. They are usually tall, with piercing eyes, long, plen tifully oiled straight hair, and point cd mustachios springing from under hawk noses. The men wear a long, loose tunic over baggy trousers. sandals, and a sheepskin coat with tho wool inside. The women dress somewhat like the men with the eX- Ception that their trousers are al ways red so that ferocious neigh bors do not mistake them for the men of the household and fire It them. The only factory in the Province is a rifle factory,

It pays the wife in this part of the world to be discreet. If she is un- faithful and her husband is in q good humor, he will give her a di- vorce. Some other time, he may cut her feet off.

utmost care has been exercised by the chief administration officer in instructing his men in the diploma tic discharge of their duties. No high handed methods or the slightest dis coutesy are countenanced.
 Anyone who doubts this need only stand at a station for an hour or so to be convinced of it's truth. Doing so he will have chance 10 see T cross section of the driving public at close range. He will see things that have no bearing on corn borers and would be of more interest to tn" state police and the prohibition en- forcement officers, than they are to the men whose interest is otherwise than checking up on motor vehicle law infringement or violation of the Nolstead act.
 Liquor Found at Night
 Cars that cannot be stopped With in 20 feet of the line and drlVers so unskilled that they stall thelr cars and have to be pushed OH 10 the side of the road are so common that they cause no comment among the inspectors. And at night a con- siderable amount Of liquor IS reVeal- ed by the flashlights.
 Only part of the job is finished when corn or flowers are taken. They must be cut up, the borers eH- .racted and bottled for shipment to 1 he labatory and the refuse either buried or burned.
 So far there have been no pro- ,ecutions for violations of the quar- lntine but the license numbers Of ,ars that failed to stop at the sta- ions have been noted. Reports lave been prepared and soon the people who are bragging that they got away with it" will be surprised when they are handed a summons 0 appear in court
