Of the stream are affected by the winds.
II the winds become easterly, 1t would
be expected 1t would tend apparently
TO change its course, possibly to be
nearer North America. Variations, as
photographers have commented on
Capt. Rostron's account, may be ex-
pected If there are unusual movements
In the atmosphere.
Easterly Winds Blamed.
The chief forecaster here, James H.
reau, and also his assistant, Mr.. KIM
ball, are Of the opinion that the recent
prevalence Of easterly winds has had a
great deal to do with the phenomenon.
In text books. the Gulf Stream Is rep
resented with graceful curves and
smooth edges. It Is even shown with o
f1ne blue color, different from the
greenish hue Of the ocean. AS a matter
Of fact, mariners do observe the diff
tons, q state probably due to particles
Of matter taken up in the Gulf and
causing certain reactions to the light.
The Gulf Stream water, being Of less
density than that of the ocean, also
gives less resistance to the propellers.
Veteran navigators profess to be able
to tell when they are In the current
even at night by the way the ship be-
HAYES.
Action Of the wind, however, as from
the east, may give q sawlike edge to
the current, or even cause 1t to spread
over o wider surface. But this effect,
according to the authorities, Is SUPER
fetal and temporary.
Important Variation Noted.
Once the winds resume their tendency
to blow from the west and the north
west, the stream settles back to the
normal course. It Is held that there is
no permanent change in all these years,
although from time to time navigatorS
observe what seems to be important
variations
AS far as the eastern coast of North
America Is concerned, whatever warm
ing effects the Gulf Stream may have
are counterbalanced by the Labrador
Current The chill river Of the sea cuts
in between us and the glow from the
Gulf.
AS far as getting q swift change of
climate with the aid Of the warm wa
tiers Of the Gulf Stream, the chances do
not seem good. There are even skeptics
who maintain that the relatively mild
Winters which are supposed to be the
good fortune Of Europe are not at all
due to the influence of the Mexican
current as was once the generally ac-
cepted theory.

That is, the population has for some
time been almost stationary. With an
exceptional drop last year. An official

of March 10, 1929, sentence by
sentence. She acknowledged all of
it except passages referring to
herself as a morphine addict and
others expressing an actual doubt
of Billings presence at 721 Mar
ket st. The stenographer and the
notary who handled her first con-
fession were then summoned and
testified that she had both die
tated and read every word of the
affidavit.
Removed Phantom Car
Atty. Mckenzie drew from her
two important admissions. The
so-called phantom car outside 721
Market St., in which Fickert
claimed Billings went to Steuart
st. where the bomb exploded, had
been removed by police before the
parade started, she testified. And
the suitcase Billings was said to
have carried did not resemble the
fragments of suitcase found at
the explosion of her own previous
description of it.
A great part of Estelle's testi-
mony was an obvious attempt to
imply personal relations with Ere
mont Older, editor of the San
Francisco Call-Bulletin, aided by
Justice Preston's evident desire to
connect Older with Emma Gold
man, Alexander Berkman, and The
Blast, anarchist paper published al
the time in San Francisco. Older
will be called later to refute thi:
testimony.

Poor Prices For Cattle
In western North Dakota and

last November, Hoover immediate
ly came to the aid of Big Business
by refunding hundreds of millions
of dollars in taxes to the million
aires and the corporations. But
when the great wave of unemploy-
ment hit the land, he had nothing
for the wage slaves but empty
words. He called the heads of in
dustry together and they promised
not to reduce wages during the
crisis. They have been doing
nothing else BUT since then. Can
ny Henry Ford did not reduce
wages but laid off tens of thous-
mands of workers. No, Hoover can
not find a solution of the unem,
ployment problem in his great en-
gineering brain. The fact is that
his brain is in the cash boxes of
big business in Wall Street.
Hoover is diddling the farmers.
He lied to them in his pre-eiec-
ton speeches. This is nothing
uncommon for politician-for a
capitalist politician. He was go
ing to find a remedy for agricul-
tural anemia. Legge's solution is
to drive from 20 to 25 per cent of
the farmers off the land. The COM
bine is doing that anyhow. Just
as the cotton-picking machine in
the south is driving the negro up
north. Now the 100 per cent
white American from the north
and the black inferior" slave of
the south may meet and commits
crate with each other at the Mas
on-Dixie line. The poor white bum
will have no more to be proud Of
than his companion in misery, the
poor black bum.
Another Commission
Oh, yes, Hoover is going 20 gel
another commission started, pro-
vided he can find enough human
material left TO compose one. The
rest of the population is already
engaged in act finding crusades
for the Great Engineer. By the
time the fact finding commission
/. on agriculture makes its report
small farmer may be as rare il
J the Northwest as an Armenian
rug peddler in the highlands OF
, Scotland.
, In the meantime Legge is usine
the Farm Board to help the Re
; publican Party in the congression
/ al elections and the leaders of The
Farmers co-operatives are coop
! Grating with him. The majority
. of the farm leaders, like the lead
: ers of the American Federation ol
Labor are part of the capitalis-
political machine. The sooner tn,
! farmers and workers get rid Of
: them the better for them. There
is more talk just now thruout the

That will be a step in the righ-
