Easter Gamblers Jam

RENO, New, April 6 UN.S0.
Comparative quiet reigned in
the Reno gambling establish

end.
Attracted by special railroad
rates and the Easter holiday,
great crowds, mostly from Cali
fornia, swarmed into town to
have whirl at the various gam
bling devices.
The betting was conservative
and some of the owners COM
planned.
Those taking "the cure" here
spent Easter Sunday in much
the same manner as those re-
siding in towns of the same size
as Reno. The churches were
crowded, but there was no un-
usual display of Easter finery
among the women members of

He said:
Before we can solve the

will be wrong to another person.
1t is very puZZling.
For example, in many cases
1t is right to kill. You can kill

making bodies made vigorous de-
mands for relief from "exceS-
Sive," "cOnfiscatOry," and "de-
structive" burdens.
Early Revision Urged
A majority of these governors
hold the general property tax
levied for State and local pur
poses responsible for gross" dis
ordinations, many of them con-
tending that the real cause of
the existing farm problem is the
taxing system. Small home own

also declared to be burdened

New Cotton Paper
To Insure Records
Hundreds of Years
Bureau of Standards An
nounces Improvement
in Durability.
The Bureau Of Standards announced

The Bureau of Standards announced
yesterday it has successfully manufac-
tured type of paper made solely Of
cotton fiber in its mill here that will
insure the safe keeping Of records, par
ticularly those placed in corner stones,
for hundreds Of years.
Bureau officials said their research
started when records from q box in the
corner stone of the old Poll Theater,
RACED here last Spring, were found to
have been for the most part indecipher-
able. They had been in the box for ~
years.
Learning Of the fate of these records,
officials said they were appealed to by
a committee In charge of the corner
stone records of the District Of Column
bias War Memorial in West Potomac
Park. AS the result Of this appeal the
bureau went to work and turned out
paper on which the names of 26,048
men of the District who had served in
the World War, were printed
The records were then sealed In an
air-tight copper box from which the
air had been removed and replaced with
nitrogen, which Is relatively inert, The
niche containing the box was so ar
ranged that water would not drain
into 1t.
While these precautions seem quite
adequate, Bureau officials said, they are
dwarfed by those recently used in Japan
to preserve the names Of the victims Of
the 1928 earthquake. A paper prepara-
Of chemicals and argon gas as further
preservatives, it is estimated that these
records will be kept intact for 10000
years.
