1880 RAIN PLAN
IS REVISED

Frederic B. Keefer. Of Claren-
don, Va, an employe Of the
Patent Office who recently con-
tended that rain to end the
drought can be produced by
artificial means, again came for
ward today with q plan that he
claims was used successfully in
Texas 40 years ago.
Keefer declares he will head
the rainmakerS.
The plan which he said ended
the Texas drought in 1890 re-
quires a large balloon filled with
oxygen. hydrogen and nitrogen.
This would be towed by an air.
plane or sent aloft under it's
own power and exploded at about
$500 feet. The plan will produce
rain, Keefer maintains.
He suggests filling the balloon
and equipping it with a time
fuse so that the plane towing it
could make a safe retreat before
the explosion.

Crushed between an automo-

on Sergeant Road. and Michigan

year-old Ernest T. Garland was
probably fatally injured.
The boy is in Sibley Hospital
suffering from a possible frac-
ture of the skull and internal
injuries. The boy was injured
while untying rope on the auto
mobile, which was being towed
by the truck. He was standing
between the two cars, one of
which suddenly went into motion,
crushing him.
The truck was driven oy

ploye Of the Garland farm, who
extricated the boy.

BROTHER
LOST IN 1885
Times staff Photo

A search was launched by
Joseph E. Kelly, 400 block G st.
N. W., yesterday for his brother,
Ira Kelly, whom he has not seen
for IS years.
The spirit of adventure became
too strong for Ira Kelly in 1885
and he left his brother, then II
years old, in this city and went
down to the sea-" Joseph had
few messages from his brother,
but in the last SO years has not
had any word from him.
The last letter Joseph had
from his brother was poSt-marked
at New South Wales, Australia,
and told of the subsiding Of the
adventurous spirit and the prob
ability that Ira might settle
down in New South Wales.
Joseph Kelly, now Sc, appealed
to police yesterday to aid him in
his search so that he and his
brother might settle q modest
family estate.

FOR AIR MAIL
"H "h NNHh <'

Danger Of loss OF valuable air
mail from fire will be practically
eliminated through the invention
of a fire and heat proof mail bag
developed at the Bureau of
Standards. The device will be
installed on all air mail lines
within a short time.
The bag, slightly larger than
the ordinary bag. is made of pure
asbestos lined inside and out
with heavy canvas It is quilted
with steel rivets to prevent dis
integration of the asbestos from
heat and has a triple locking de.
vice which prevents heat and
fire from entering the mouth Of
the bag.
The Postmaster General also
gave out figures on the amount
of air mail carried in the last
year. The total number of pounds
aggregated 7,715,741 while the
number of pounds lost through
fire only amounted to $4,863 or
a percentage Of .00063.

BLINDNESS HITS
VA. HOLLOW
MISS BARBER

RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 13.-
More than 40 cases of trachoma,
serious eye disease which often
results in blindness, have been
found in sparsely settled noun
tain hollow approximately 10
miles square, in southern Wythe
county, according to Miss Isabel
r. Bullock. registered field nurse
Of the Virginia commission for
the blind.
In this region children are
often seen walking with their
hands before their eyes because,
Sthey say, "the light hurts"
Mostly Farmers
Miss Bullock, who has Just
returned from investigating these
conditions in the Piney Creek
district west of Ivanhoe, de-
scribed the ravages of the dis
ease in that section, where the
population makes its living pain
fully and half blindly through
farming.
Approximately SO Of these
cases are children, she declared
adding that two cases of total
blindness and three of half-blind-
ness had been found by her in
six families.
All Of these children will be
blind within 10 years If not
treated, eye specialists Of Rich
mond have told her.
The afflicted children are re-
strained by law from attending
school because Of the highly con-
tagious character of the malady,
which can be carried by COM
mon towel.
Miss Bullock described homes
where 10 or IL persons were
living in tWo-room houses and
where one towel was made to do
for a week.
"Sand In Eyes"
The adults of the neighbor-
hood are more resigned than
their offspring to the pain of
the disease, which they say
feels like sand in your eyes" ;"
The older generation of the dis
trict declare that "sore eyes"
have always existed among them,
Miss Bullock said, adding that
they have never thought of their
condition being otherwise.
Other scattered cases have
been found in adjoining coun-
ties. The number Of cases that
may be found on thorough in
vestigation in Southwest 'Vir-
ginia might run into the hun
dredS, it was said by L. L. Watts,
executive secretary of the COM
mission and member of the gen.
eral assembly.
