MORE EDUCATED
STUDENTS ARE
LESS WARLIKE
Protestants Have Edge in
Pacifism on Catholics,
Survey Shows.

By Science Service
CHICAGO, Feb. 21.-War or
peace? That question was put to
1,400 University of Chicago students
by means of a forty-four item queS-
tionnaire prepared by D. D. Droba
of the Jlniversitys psychological
laboratory.
The more educated students are
less war-loving than those who have
completed less of their college work.
Women are less militaristic than
men. ProtestantS are more pacifis-
tic than Catholics. Socialists are
more in favor of peace than either
Republicans and Democrats. And
ex-soldierS tend to be more mill
taristic than men who have never
gone to war. Students Of American
parentage have better opinions of
war than students Of mixed and
foreign parentage.
The experiment under the spon-
sorship of Professor L. L. Thurstone
| demonstrates, Droba explains, that
attitude toward the issue of war VS..
peace can be measured by modern
psychological methods"
Neither intelligence nor neurotic
personality is related to pacifistic
and militaristic attitudes" Droba
stated. "A very slight tendency was
found for students of high scholar
ship TO be pacifists rather than mil
itariStS.

OPERA STAR IN
MOVIES PUZZLE
TO HOLLYWOOD
Lawrence Tibbett Lacking
in Temperament; Likes
Simple Life.

EV tines rpfffNt
HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Feb. 81. -
Hollywood is all upset. 1t can't
make heads OF tails of Lawrence
Tibbett, the first real big-time opera
star ever to daily in its midst.
Hollywood, whose three tin gods
are SWank, Temperament and Four
Flush. can't believe yet that lib
bett is a real opera star, never
would believe it but for his voice.
It's the same voice that raises the
pulse beat of New York's Metropoli
tan opera audiences all right.
Tibet, the first opera star to
sing in the talkies, the highest paid
baritone in the world, has left the
high-hat segment Of the movie col
opy gasping at his complete lack of
temperament and Alterations.
Hollywood soon discovered that
he loathed Wallets and did his own
dressing, that he sang popular hits
under the shOWerbath, that he dis
missed the luxurious motor car put
Sc his disposal and walked to work,
chat ne hates to be called mister"
that he jammed his way into the
studio commissary and ate at what
ever vacant place he could find,
that he worked overtime and
seemed to like it. And Hollywood's
idea of what a star should be, par
ticularly an opera star, isn't like
that.
Tibbett explains 1t all with perfect
naturalness in an interview in the
current Photoplay magazine.
You see, I'm just not built that
way" he says. L guess I'm still

JAPANESE SURVEY
 FLASK, TWO YEARS
 AFLOAT, PICKED UP

Drifting tor almost two years after being planted" in the waters of Northern Japan, bottle of the Japanese Geodetic Survey was pick ed up recently on the shores of Trail Island at the entrance tc Cross Sound by Swan Swanson fox farmer, and brought to Juneau on the Margnita.
 The' bottle had been set adrift tightly sealed, with dry sand in the bottom to keep the neck above the water. Within the bottle was a single sheet of heavy paper bearing Japanese printing.
 This was brought here by Capt ISeverin Swanson of the Margnita and was partially translated in Ju- neau today. It was set ashore in Northern Japan eraly in May, 1928, by the Geodetic Survey, in an at- tempt to check the currents o1 the Pacific, especially those of the Japanese coast.
 The card also bears the request that the finder please return 1t to the Survey. This Capt. Swanson will do. The message was picked up at Trail Island March 12, last Wednesday.

ARCTIC BLASTS STRIKE JUNEAU
 EARLY THIS AIM.
I'M Mercury Drops to Five Above -Coldest March
 Day Here in 28 Years

Juneau went to bed last night in the Banana Belt" and got up today at the North Pole. Those optimists who spent the Monday evening enjoyable delving into seed catalogs in an effort to be up to date on what the best gardens will grow this year, this morning sadly dug out their earworn copies of When Winter Comes.
 A sudden drop in the tempera- ture here early this morning car ried the mercury down to five de- grees above zero. And it was hov- ering around that point almost all day long, the cold being ac- companied by fresh wind that had more than a touch of ice in it's blasts! Continued cold is the of ficial weather forecast for tonight with warmer temperature for We'd nesday.
 The minimum of five degrees was reached about 9 o'clock this morning. That was also the cold est weather experienced in Juneau on any March day in a few days more than 28 years. On March 13, 1902, according to records of the local station of the United States Weather Bureau, the mercy drop ped to three degrees above zero. And on March T, 1900 the lowest point ever registered officially in March was attained-five degrees below zero.
 Many motorists were caught by today's unexpected change in tenn iperature. Commercial garages were kept busy towing in frozen cars and thawing out their ice-cased brakes and other parts. In the downtown streets, where yesterday pedestrians had to exercise caution in navigating channels of water caused by rain and melting snow, ribbons of ice lay in wait for the unwary.
 Ketchikan was today the only town in Alaska, according to the official report of the Weather Buerau, which could claim to be in the Banana Belt" Its lowest temperature was 34 above, and at a. m. it reported 36 above.

 Work on North Half
 The Consulting Engineers report describes in detail the nature of the work carried on in both mine and mill last year In underground work, there was put in $500 feet of drifts and crosscuts, 5,231 feet of raises, 50 feet of intermediate drifts, 1,532, of powder drifts, 42 feet of bulldozing chambers, or total of 12.257 feet of lineal development work There was also 8l ,635 square feet of stope area cut out during the year, an increase of more than 10000 square feet over that done in 1928. The report said; "The work of preparing the south half of the mine is now so far advanced that a portion of the crew can be trans ferred to the north half of the mine, where they will do mine pre- paratory work and also prospect those areas where this character of work is not yet complete. Work on the property of the Ebner Gold Mining Company un- der our agreement with that com 1 pany, was confined to raising and crosscutting, for the purpose of as- certaining the extent of the ore body.

1896 per cent of the gold content in the rock trammed, and 85.3S per cent of the content of the ore fine milled; these figures show improve ment over the corresponding figures for last year
 "A small flotation unit in the retrcatment department of the mill was operated with encouraging re- suits, and additions will be made to this unit as fast as they arc justi- fled by results obtained"
 It is pointed out that there was an abundant supply of labor throughout the year; an average of 615 men were employed at total overall cost of $10o1 per man per day.
 Much Powder Used , The Alaska Juneau used a tre- mendous amount of powder in it's operations last year. The total consumption was 1,322,15 pounds, averaging .34 pounds for each ton of ore trammed. Twenty-one pow der drift blasts used 118,95o pounds; the balance, 1908 300 pounds, was used in bulldozing.
 Of the total ore trammed to the mill-3836,440 tons, 98 per cent came from the south ore body. as compared to 92.4 per cent in 1928.
 The average gold assay value for this tonnage was SLIP. which was 21 cents above the average for all ore trammed to the mill since 1914, the value over the entire period, 1914-1919 being $.90.

Senate Passes
Deficiency Bill
Continued from page ~

City would be the construction head
quarters and most of the construc-
ton money would be spent in Utah.
An analysis shows that Salt Lake
City will not stand any chance in
competition with Los Angeles, which
is situated nearer the dam ana
which has the advantage. of occa,.
transportation and lower freight
rates. Los Angeles is going to pay
for Boulder dam, and will claim that
she is entitled to the business on
that account, and her claims will
not be denied.
"Thc claim is made that Utah
citizens will find employment at the
dam. If they do, they will bccom
Nevada citizens because they won u
leave their families here. Obviously
that is not going to bring any
money.

any animosity toward California OK

for the necessity of sound thinking
on economic subjects.

marks after the opening address ]
Governor ii. c. Baldridge, of Ida
chairman Of the conference, who de.
'elared that the west should take
advantage of the growing impor-
tance of Oriental markets and the
western gateways to this country.
The way was cleared for today's
adoption of the second deficiency
bill when Senator Hayden's amend
ment regarding the Boulder dam
appropriation was defeated without
record vote yesterday.
Making Arizona's last legislative
stand against the giant water and
power project, Senator Hayden ar
gued that provisions of the Swing.
johnson bill had not been complied
with in laying plans for construc-
ton. He asked that the appropria-
ton be delayed until Los Angeles
had voted a bond issue with which
to guarantee repayment to the gov
crnmcnt of money spent on the dam.
Los Angeles has contracts for pur-
chase of water and power, the re-
ceipts to 90 to the government for
its dam appropriations.
Failing in this, Hayden asked
that the $l0,660,000 appropriation
be eliminated and one substituted
authorizing $1,000,0OO for prelim.
mary surveys of the Boulder canyon
project. He was defeated in this
move as well, the senate deciding
to approve the appropriation at
once.
