important implications IN the under
standing of a prevalent pathological
condition.
Carrying out this line requires per-
lection of the technique so that the
transplanted heart can be kept beat
ing longer 1t takes about four days
to bring about hyper hyroidism
by that time the transplanted heart
stops beating anyway. Both these lines
of experimentation, it was explained,
are of vital import toward clearer
understanding of the physiological
processes upon which life and health
depend.
Cancer, the increasing scourge Of
modern society, apparently was entirely
absent from the American Indians.
DR.. Ales Hrdlicka of the Smithsonian
Institution, told the physicians. Elk
aiming thousands of skeletons he has
found no signs of the end effects of
cancer in the bones. Also, he said, he
found his first case of cancer among
the thousands of Indians he has ex-
amined only two. years ago. The vast
amount of Skeletal material in the
National Museum, much Of 1t nlustrat-
ing pathological conditions, was made
available to the visitors.
Clinics were held at Walter Reed,
Naval, Mount Alto, George Washington
and Children's Hospitals.

ct depends on what you want to
call life" he replied. with no
nervous connections whatever, Of
course, it has no consciousness which
is usually meant when people speak OF
life"
But, he explained, mechanically 1t
has all the attributes of living thing.
1t b reathes and pumps blood. 1t does
essentially everything which the heart,
lungs and viscera do IN maintaining
the life process.
Life and death mean something diff
ferent TO the psychologist than to the
| layman. After all, DR.. Markowitz eX-
planned, the question of starting the
life processes in dead animal-liter-
ally making it alive again-is only a
matter of an arterial injection with
the proper technique. But after about
six hours, he believes, this does not
really mean the restoration Of life be-
cause the nervous system has been so
irreparably injured by the time spent
in death that the restored animal Is
only an automaton.
Dog Given Two Hearts.
Then DR.. Wallace M. Yater, profess
sor of medicine at the Georgetown
Medical School, administered ether TO
two dogs. In the neck Of one he made
moved the heart, ligating all the
arteries except two. Then, rapidly and
surely, he put the heart into the neck,
plugged the pulmonary artery into the
jugular vein and the aorta into an
other artery, and the heart continued
to beat. Then the neck was sewed
up and a little later living dog with
two hearts was expected to come out
of the ether.
One doo xuas sbou7o 1lnon whom a
similar operation was performed. After
two days the heart in the neck still
was beating regularly, as well as the
animals own heart. The tranSplanted
heart will continue TO beat, but more
and more irregularly, for about four
days. Then it will begin to disinte-
CRATE, and will be removed from the
animal who, in every way normal
dog will be kept In luxury for the rest
of his life.
The experiments along this line may
have far-reaching results in two dlrec-
tons, it was explained. In the flrst
place they demonstrate that an organ
of one animal cannot be kept alive
long in the body Of another. Every
creature is an individual complex. But,
Dr. Markowitz explained, 1t is entirely
possible to remove a dogs kidney,
transplant it to the neck of the same
dog, and have it continue to function
perfectly as normal kidney.
Free From Nervous Control.
Now the transplanted, beating heart
is entirely free from nervous control.
1t Is known that oversecretion from the
thyroid gland causes an increase in the
normal heart rate, but this effect is
commonly believed to be brought about
through the nervous system. The
Georgetown doctors want to know
whether hyper thyroidism, induced in
a dog by injections of thyroxin, will
have the same effect on the trans
planted heart. If so there may be

Memorial Association are now willing
to waive all rules and allow Mrs,
Pickett's ashes to be placed beneath
the huge monument that marks Gen.
Picketts grave. Her offer was made In
the following telegram to Lieut.. Pickett:
"At a called meeting OF Hollywood
Memorial Association today 1t was de-
cided, in view of the distinguished
service Of Gen. Pickett. to make an ex-
ception in the case OF Mrs. Pickett to
the rule concerning the interment OF
civilians in the soldiers section.
THE association will be glad to pro-
vide a place by the side of Gen. Pickett
for the interment Of his venerable
widows remains and we shall esteem 1t
an honor to cooperate in suitable
interment."
Some time later Mrs. Bauer an
nounced she had received no reply from
Lieut.. Pickett.
Gen. Pickett, first buried in Norfolk
August 2, 1875, was brought to Rich
nond and reburied in Hollywood among
the veterans of his brigade october
a., 1875. Thirteen years later the pres
ent monument to Pickett and his men
was erected over their graves on Gettys-
burg Hill. The presence OF the big
granite pile over the grave, the burial
close by of so many other soldiers and
the a years that have elapsed since
the second burial, have aroused doubt
that Gen. Pickett's body can be re-
covered for third interment. The ap-
proximate location is not known. II
is supposed to be directly beneath the
great stone monument.
Complicated Dispute.
Uncertainty as to the location first
complicated the correspondence be-
tween the Pickett family and the Holly
wood Memorial Association. When the
family first made known the desire OF
Gen. Pickett's widow to be buried with
him the cemetery company referred the
matter to the Hollywood Memorial As
ISOLATION. The Memorial Association
could find no record of Gen. Pickett's
burial in the soldiers section for which
they were responsible, and so concluded
they had no Jurisdiction in granting the
request. They discovered after Mrs
Picketts death what was common
tradition in Richmond-that the hero
OF Gettysburg lay buried not In the
cemetery proper, but among the ranks
Of his men, beneath the monument
They then announced the rules gov.
erning the soldiers section did moi
permit the burial Of any save Confed-
crate soldiers.
The people of Richmond, Mortified
at the tragedy of errors, are sympathetic
with Lieut.. Pickett's views, but are dis
tressed because they regret to see the
body disturbed and foresee a painful
confusion which may accompany efforts
to remove the big memorial and
identify the remains.

Crisfield. 9
The investigation was opened up ON
expression of fears of relatives that
Owens might have been slain by liquor,
runners, though q coroner returned
verdict of death from natural causes
The Federal officers reported they found

SALARY RAISES DESERVED.

The passage by Congress and it's approval by President Hoover of measure raising the salaries of the Governor of Alaska from $7000 to $1000O and of Secretary of Alaska from $500 to s56oO annually was a commendabe action. It will be heartily endorsed by the rank and file of Alaskans who were grieved recently when the House. after approving smaller increase for the latter officer, defeated a Senate bill giving the Governor the increase finally authorized To the Senate must be given the credit for restoring the originally proposed boost to the Secretary and for resurrecting the measure for the Governor which the House had killed It amended the House bill affecting the

Secretary in two respects: It restored the Secre- tary's salary provision to S5,600 and added clause to cover the Governor. In that manner it passed the Senate and the House then approved the Sen ate amendments thus reversing both of its original acts
 The increases are deserved. Both the Governor and Secretary represent not only the Federal Gov ernment here but also are ranking Territorial officers Their duties are many and important. Their salary rates put them on a par with similar officers other Territories and possessions of the United States. The happy termination of the matter is wholly gratifying, and the present cncum- bents of the offices gained friends rather chan lost them by the surprising attitude taken by AL aska's Delegate in Congress who while proclaiming himself neutral" spitefuly attacked Gov. Parks in debate over the Senate bill which sought to pay him the higher salary.

"BUDGET IN NAME ONLY"

That is the manner in which Gov. Parks last Wednesday his address to the Legislature referred to the present Territorial budget system. The cur rent budget" submitted to the Legislature by Treas urer Walstein G. Smith is substantial proof that the Governors description was most apt. However, it is not to be concluded hastily that the responsi- bility is MT Smiths. He is charged with preparing and submitting biennial budget to the Legislature but he is directed by statute to the method to be followed Consequently the inherent defects, which are admitted by everyone, arise from made ouate legislative enactment and not upon an lm- perfect performance of official duty in this instance
 A perusal of the budget just submitted IS suf- ficient to indicate it's futity far as aiding or guiding the Legislature in the matter of making appropriations is concerned. Of the more than two and one-half millions of dollars recommended for the various governmental activities for the next two years not one cent has been proved through jus
 fication That is not to say that none of it could be justified. Obviously major portion could be- But the test of budget rests upon its effective ness in distinguishing between justifiable and an- justifiable expenditures Alaska's existing budget requirements are valueless in that respect. The Governor very properly has suggested to the Leg islature that it abolish the system now in vogue and replace it with that will be effective. And the budget recommendations now before the law makers furnish convincing evidence of the wisdom of adopting his suggestion

Corn POne and POtlicker.
(NeW York World.)

Having immediate political controversy at hand to engage his superabundant energies, Gov ernor Long of Louisiana has revived dispute of long standing to the proper etiquette to be ob- served in the eating of corn pone and potlicker. There those who say that the prone should be crumbed into the liquid, but the Governor in- ssts that it should be "dunked," and he has taken the Atlanta Constitution to task for it's assertion that corn bread which be "dunked" is not the genuine pone but inferior substitute.
 To many Eastern city dweers all this is just so much jargon but those who have lived close to the soil in that wide below the Potomac and Ohio Rivers will appreciate the importance of the discussion. Potlcker is something for which no ordinary definition is adequate. Marse Henry Watterson undertook many years ago to tell what it is, after he had been angered by tourists sighting description of it "houn' dawg's brosia," and he needed a column of his newspaper for the purpose When says that it is the by-product of of greens boiled with piece of pork hog jowl, does not define it at all, for definition portray the subtle flavor
 mparted to the already savory juices by the smoke of slowly burning hickory sticks piled under the pot Potcker is to be tasted and enjoyed but not to be defined.
 Of course, the only fit accompaniment for such treat is prone Corn-meal dumplings boiled in the pot with the flicker, sometimes offered for the sake of variety, but they too heavy for constant diet But how shall the pone be eaten -crumbed into the flicker or "dunked" in whole? That point, it seems to us, is mmateral as the dispute over the proper way to eat asparagus which keeps cropping up from time to time outside the potlcker belt. Both ways do very well it all depends on ones disposition

DEATH AND TAXATION.
Fairbanks News-Miner.)

Two things we are sure of, "Death and taxation" Luther fC. Hess, sen ator from the Fourth division, and Fred Johnston, representative from the same division, evidently believe in 'death in hurry" They are doing their darnedest down there in Juneau to tax us to the limit, and we all know that too much taxation means sure death, especially to country Nike Alaska
 Just as we were looking forward to revival in mining our representa- tive, Fred Johnston, wants a bill to 20 through increasing taxes on min Ing. The backbone of this division, as we'll as the Second and Third, is mining. Capital is looking to Alaska for real mining investments. John ston's bil would be just the thing to keep capital out of the Territory.
 And no wcomes along our senator, Luther C. Hess. He proposed two measures introduced in the Senate Saturday. The first bill calls for a 1-2 per cent levy on all merchandise sales, and the latter bill a one cent per gallon tax on all petroleum pro- ducts sod in Alaska. The gas tax would be made applicable to automo- piles, boats using any kind of fuel oil, oil burners, and any other de- vices using fuel oil of any nature.
 Can anyone in. Fairbanks imagine a man like Senator Luther c. Hess introducing these bills? We are al- ready taxed to the limit. Our Dear Old Uncle Sam has raised our freight rates. Now comes the death knell." Some of the peope we sent to Juneau to represent us are the very boys who are ringing the death knell."
 The sales tax bill will, as anyone can plainly see, raise the cost of liv- ing for all of us, rich or poor. And if there isn't a special provision for exemption of gasoline from the sales tax, both of the tax bills as proposed by Senator Hess will be paid on pe- troleum produces, making this a double tax.
 How long, o Lord! How long! Thank the Dear Lord we will have another election coming up some day
 
 in the not far distant future. And don't forget-if you are still alive death or taxation.

ALASKA'S BUFFALO HERD LO-
 GATED IN JARVIS OK. FLATS
(Fairbanks News-Miner.)

Interior Alaska's buffalo herd is safe and is grazing in the Jarvis creek country, where ffeed is plenti- full, according to word received by Warden Sam 0. White from Louis I. Grimsmore, who has been searching flor the herd for some time.
 "I found the buffaloes at ast," writes Mir. Grimsmore, land in a place where they have been all win ter, the Jarvis creek flats, mostly south of Jarvis. A variety of feed is to be found there, but at this time of the year they seem to prefer slough grass in the numerous dry or partly .dry lake beds in thot section. As you know, the late summer sprouts of this grass stay green throughout the winter.
 When foun dthem they were in two separate herds, from II to Is miles apart. There are nine calves, -26 in all, exclusive of the three from the College. The latter did not find, lbut am satisfied that they range close ito the main herd, as I have tracked them here and there and they were seen by Henry Stock in January. They are easily recognized, as one of tthe cows is minus one horn.
 "I dug the dead buffalo COW out of tthe ice. The cause of it's death is lplain. It fell into bowl-shaped hole in the slough and could not get out. The anmal was certainly not chased lby wolves and it was not in a starv-
