CHILDREN SHOW
IMPROVEMENT AT
MOUNTAIN CAMP

There are now 70 children, 26
boys and 46 girls, between the ages
of 6 and y being cared for at the
Hipass preyentorium camp which
is jointly operated by the Anti
tuberculosis association and the
American Legion posts Of Imperial
Valley under the leadership of the
Forty and Eight. The fame of the
camp has SO spread throughout the
valley that there are now more APP
plications for admission than the
camp has accommodations for.
The boys are under the direct
care of Rev. j. c. Spencer of Seeley
and he also directs the physical
and recreation of the whole group.
Spencer has had 20 years experience
IN the handling of boys and parti-
cular training in the work he is do
ing for them at Hipass. Mrs. Otis
TippS is the mother of the camp
and it is her duty to see that 70
hungry little folks are we'll filled
three times a day. She has had
charge of the camp in former years
and reports that food disappears at
a remarkable rate when the young
sters troop to the tables The girls
in particular and the health of the
whole group in general are the re-
sponsibility of Mrs. W. c. Hill of
Imperial who is the nurse for the
camp.
Mountain air, good food regular
hours and healthful exercise are
doing wonders for these children.
AT the end of the first period of
two weeks the average weight show
ed marked increase and in several
instances there were gains of from
two to six pounds. Mrs. Hill re-
ports that there is noticeable de-
crease in nervousness among the
group and that they are all able
now to remain quiet on their hunks
during the regular rest periods.
The camp is we'll equipped to ham
die the number of children now in
attendance but there is no room for
more. 1t is hoped and planned that
the accommodation may be aug
mented next year so that all who
apply may be admitted.
Those particularly interested in
this project and to whom credit is
due for its success are Mrs. F. H.
Mitchell of Ell Centro and her COM
mittee-women of the -Tubercu-
losis association, Chef de Care o.
H. Van Eman and Charles Jobes of
the 40-and-8, and the Legionnaires
and Auxiliary members of the val
ley posts and units. They wish to
ihank all those who have donated
food and supplies to the camp and
to urge like donations from any
others in the valley who care to
give. The members of the 40-and-8
will see that any donations are
transported to the camp.

Eurons and Her Wheat.

1t Is an interesting coincidence that
ct the very momep. the Federal agri-
clftural authorities In the United States
are exhausting every effort to curtail
wheat production. Europe should be in
conference on ways and means to boy
colt imported wheat. The proposed
embargo, Of course, Ia aimed at the
bread baskets Of the world" Canada,
Argentina, India, Australia, South
africa and this country. The proposal
under discussion at Rome, where the
conference is in session, provides for a
system Of preferential tariffs which
would limit European trade in wheat
to grain grown on continental soil
European farmers, like those in
America and other great embarrassing
lands throughout the world, are faced
by overproduction and underconsump-
ton. They are growing more than they
can sell. They feel the urge Of drastic
tampering with the law Of supply and
demand. Under the spur Of war needs,
Mother Earth seventeen years ago
sprcuted prodigiously with wheat. BY
1915 she was growing 4,422,O0O.o0o
bushels Is compared with s,T6S 600 ,0Oo
in 1918. The world wheat crop fell
back to pre-war normal after 1918. but
in 1925 production began going steadily
hE4ard again. Today there > slut

In wheat. to combat which the Eu-
ropean agrarian countries seem deter
mined upon heroic measures.
Nolcountry has . more vital interest
in keeping Old World markets open for
imported wheat than the United States.
For ten years our surplus output OF
that cereal has been paramount eco
nomic and political issue. 1t still Is.
Only this week it bounded back into
the congressional arena Is . result Of
the Federal Farm Boards decision not
to buy any Of the 1891 wheat crop-to
let the farmers themselves regulate
acreage and production instead of rely
ing on generous Uncle Sam to come
to their rescue after the damage Is done.
Today there Is gratifying evidence
that the farmers are beginning to real
ize the necessity of self-help. The De-
partment of Agriculture estimates that
growers Of Spring wheat will plant one
Of the smallest crops since the war
lat per cent less than last year. This
is the kind Of farm relief that is des-
tined to get somewhere, because 1t is
founded on common sense. In de-
creased acreage and crop Investigation
lies American agriculture's soundest
hope. Once systematically invoked.
those principles of good husbandry will
enable our farmers to view without
alarm European boycott of foreign
wheat. Also they will make it unneces-
sary for politicians to dangle before
agriculture ouack remedies like export
debenture and equalization fee. The
farmer will have worked out his own
salvation.

It All Depends.

"It is not how far you fall, but how
you land, that counts" Is often heard,
in explanation Of strange happenings
due 70 the force Of gravity. Many times
this Is illustrated, a. for example q few
years ago on the same day In New York
city q man fell from a four-story build
ing and. landing on an awning below,
was only slightly injured, while an
other, falling for q distance Of about
four feet of q boothlack's stand in the
street, struck his head on q corner Of
the frame and Was killed.
Just so do ayiators come TO grief OF
escape injury In falls from great
heights according TO the manner in
which they hit the ground. Some ex-
traordinary instances Of immunity are

A. The New York World first APP
peared in June, 1860. as q 1-cent re-
ligiouS daily paper published by Alex
ander Cummings and others, chiefly
PhiladelphianS. Later 1t was merged

SCOTS death 1t was acquired by Jay
Gould Joseph Pulitzer purchased It

A. The world altitude record Of a.
166 feet Is held by Navy Lieut.. Apollo

Q. When paper money has been
burned, how should it be handled when
sending 1t In for redemption?-T. K. s.
A. The Department of the Treasury
says: Do not disturb the burned money
or fragments thereof any more than Il
absolutely essential. II the money was
nat when burned, do not roll or fold it.
II In a roll, do not attempt to unroIl or
straighten it out. If in q purse, box or
otner container when burned. 1t should
be left intact In order to prevent the
charred parts from being lost or re-
duced to mere ashes. When money Is
so badly burned as to be more or less
brittle or inclined to fall apart, it should
be carefully packed In cotton and boxed
as found, without, II possible, disturbing
it in any manner.

woman's altitude record, and seeking 70
regain it in q flight that carried her. it
is now estimated. to $4,000 feet when
her oxygen tank became disconnected.
When . pilot loses consciousness the
plane Of course goes out Of control and
falls. In Miss Smiths case the machine
had descended to within about 1000
feet of the earth when she recovered
from, her state of insensibility and re-
gained control Of the ship. She managed
TO maneuver it to what would have been
q safe landing but for the intervention
OF some trees, against which it collided,
with the result Of q somersault and q
wreck. But the young woman, thickly
bundled in clothing for warmth In the
upper air, was unframed. She made
her own way out of the wreckage and
was found by rescue party, dazed and
hysterical but intact.
So 1t all depends upon the final i'm
pact. Miss Smith would OF course have
been killed If the plane had fallen the
full distance from the point at which it
went out Of control. She might have been
killed in the tumbling of the plane upon
landing If 1t had been brought down
under control for the entire distance
from her ceiling" and had then hit a
tree. Bundled as she was in heaven
velope of garments she might have lost
her life If in the gyTations on the
ground she had hit with her head FIRST.
There Is no law Of accidents. The
other day in this city q blast Of dyna-
mite set OF to demolish an old build
ing sent bolt of metal block and a
half through window to hit child
and slightly injure her, and another
blast sent brick through a window
eight stories above the ground across
the street. Had either Of these missiles
CHANGED to strike q person at short
range from the point of blasting, death
would have been caused. Daily the
streets are the scenes of narrow escapes
in trafiic, and yet sometimes those who
are hit are the most careful persons,
whose movements just happen to coin
eide with an unexpected twist OF the
steering wheel Of skillfully driven car.
So It all depends upon that mysterious
element known as chance, against which
or for which there is no insurance.

Silver Conference
Proposal Favored
From the Houston Post-Dispateh.

From the Houston Post-Dispatch.
Why should England feel insulted Il
President Hoover should call an inter
national conference to discuss the silver
situation? Suppose India is being
changed from silver to a gold basis
England is as much interested as is any
other nation-perhaps more so-in re-
lieving the economic depression which
is now worldwide. And II the low price
of silver is contributing TO that depres-
sion, the English people should be 81
quick to perceive the fact, and as will
ing as others to join in an international
effort to get out of the slump.
Since January, 1929, the price of sill
yer has fallen from Sta cents per ounce
to 26Ik cents per ounce. silver is sell
ing today for just about half its normal
value, notwithstanding that silver pro-
auction has not increased greatly In
recent years and in the past year has
been of.
Countries on a silver basis have had
their purchasing power materially re-
duced lately because the value of their
money has fallen TO about half its nor
NAL value. Mexico and South American
countries, together with China, are ex-
amples. Our exports to China have
fallen ~ per cent in year, largely
because Of the cheapness Of Chinese
money.
An international conference to con-
slider plans for getting the price OF
silver back to normal, as provided for
in the resolution sponsored by Senator
Pittman, is in order. There is no rea-
sen why such conference could not
be So conducted e to avoid Offending
