FOOD SMUGGLING FROM
u. S. WORRIES CANADA
Racket in Wake of Beer Return
Problem for Police.

BIZ United Press
MONTREAL. Aug. ia new
source of worry to federal police
the smuggling of foodstuffs from
the United States into Canada-has
arisen as result of the return of
beer in the United States.
Canada grocers claim that Ameri-
can racketeers, abandoning the
smuggling of beer and liquor into
the United States in the wake of
legalization of beer and wine sales,
are now turning their eyes to
smuggling foodstuffs into the DO
minion, particularly such groceries
as sugar, soap and malt syrup.
Refined sugar, it is pointed out
is cheaper in the United States than
in Canada. The Dominion imposes
a tariff OF Sl.89 per hundredweight
on refined sugar imported from
across the border. Apart from this
the Canadian government. as a re-
suit of enactments embodied in the
last budget, levies an excise tax OF
2 cents per pound on sugar refined
in the Dominion.
Smugglers, therefore, can bring
into Canada illegally United States
refined sugar and sell it at So cheap
er per 100-pound bag.

LONDON, Aug. 19-For the first

race horses.
So far this season, he has won
nine races worth S37,500 and oc-
cupies thirteenth place in the VIM

King Georges best runners up
to now were The Abbot. Limelight
and FoXearth, all bred at the
royal stud at Sandringham, Nor
folk. The Abbot's best showing
was at the recent Goodwood meet.
when he beat the Aga Khan's smart
colt Gino in the Sussex stakes.
Previously, he won the Tadcas-
ter stakes at York, and the Nom
such Plate at EPSON. Limelight
won the Newbury Spring Cup. and
the Hardwicke stakes at Ascot
While Foxearth secured three
prizes at Newmarket.
Limelight is 4-year-old, and
is due to run once or twice again
before the season ends in Novem-
Der. Afterwards, the son of Lord
Derbys famous horse, Pharos, re-
tires to the stud, and should produce
some good winners.

MEXICO CITY MUSEUMS

ArcheolOgists and Realty Dealers

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 19.-Mexico
City streets may come TO have mu-
seums under them if real estate
dealers do not win over archeolo-
gists.
Excavations already are extending
beneath Argentina avenue, over
which a street car runs, because
the edge of an Aztec temple or
other structure was found to begin
under its sidewalk. Steel Orders
will protect the excavators while
they dig underneath the street.
Two stone carvings just have
been found at the base Of the lit
tie temple" They are several feet
long, are still painted red, and ap-
pear TO represent warriors shields
If real estate owners have their
way, the Psychologists may excavate
and study their building, but will
have to bury it again. But some
persons believe that a subway or
cellar museum could be constructed
so that every one could see what
Mexico City is like underneath, and
not hamper the construction of
business buildings on top.

MAP SHOWS LANGUAGES
Chart Made Covering Nearly Sixty
Tongues Spoken in Mexico.

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 19.-The
first reliable language map to be
made Of Mexico, which will show
where the nearly sixty indigenous
tongues and dialects are now spoken
in the country, is nearing compile
ton. 1t is being prepared by
Miguel Mendizabal, ethnologist of
the Mexican national museum. The
data are from the general census
taken in 1890, which was the first
time in the history of Mexico that
data on native races scientifically
were gathered
Comparison with less accurate
linguistic map made by Mendoza
bal from earlier and more incom-
plete data from the 1920 census
nevertheless shows certain general
facts. Indian racial movements are
still taking place. For instance, Az
tees on the southern coast of OAK
AGA have been largely replaced by
Zapotecs in recent years, the reason
not being one OF racial superiority,
but sudden zapotecan profit in
shrimp fishing.

SCIENCE WILL
RAISE MEXICAN
FARM STANDARD
Reorganization Planned for
Agriculture, Under Bu-
reaus' Guide.
Ry Science serrice

R,D Science Serrice
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 19-TEe
most radical reorganization of the
ministry of agriculture in Mexico's
history along scientific. social, and
economic bases has been planned by
high government officials and tech
nical experts, in an effort 70 turn
national agriculture from its hap
hazard development of the past into
directed channels.
Mexico is fundamentally an agri-
cultural country. and yet this most
important industry is so rachitic
that Mexico imports fundamental
food that she can raise herself Her
agricultural sanitation is so defec-
tive that she often can not sell her
products to the United States or
other countries.
Although her location in the semi
tropics and tropics makes her agri-
cultural possibilities almost un-
United. most of her best lands are
rot utilized advantageously. To COR
,ect these and other defects the fed
eral government hopes to take her
national agriculture in hand, direct
it economically, socially, and tech
nically.
Council in Charge
This will be easier to do than IN a
country like the United States, be-
cause Mexico's government always
has been paternal, and central au-
hority the rule. and harder, because
ne government will have more
primitive communities and individ-
.lals to deal with.
A national agricultural advisory
ccuncil made up of representatives
OF rural organizations of various
classes, of state and federal repre-
;entatives, and of technicians, will
lirect the nations major agricul-
.ural policies, directly under a cab
net member. Four scientific bureaus
will divide up the work of the ma
.ional department, aside from ad-
ministrative bureaus to carry out
he results of their Investigations.
A bureau of geography, meteoro-
ogy and NEUROLOGY will study phys
cal outlines of the country with a
Jew TO agricultural application, and
map and explore inaccurately known
parts.
Will Fight Pests
A bureau of agricultural improve
ment will study the application of
vegetable and animal genetics, pest
fighting and the like with a view to
improving quality and quality of
products, and other factors tending
to that purpose.
A bureau of national lands and
colonization will administer the
parceling out and exploitation of
lands reclaimed in recent irrigation
works; the better distribution of ru-
raj population, utilization of desira-
BILE regions now abandoned. and the
like. In this bureau chronological
surveys and studies of rural soci-
ology will be made.
A bureau of agricultural economy
will compile statistics, plan programs
of agricultural betterment, distribu-
ton, consumption and control OF
production.

Personally we believe that the new

The dismissal of Geo. Wilcox, for
merly in charge of the rural relief
was unfortunate. He Is a man who
understands the problems Of the rural
communities, and could inject into
his decisions q keen analysis of all
associated conditions. This the aver
age social welfare worker cannot and
will not do.
We are convinced that at least 95
percent of those who have been on
relief during the past few months
have really needed all the help they
have received. We know that the

1t is easy for those Of us with full
stomachs to say that there is nc
necessity for relief program. The
fact that gardens are coming on, and
that there is fruit to be picked does
not entirely remedy existing condi-
lions. There are still hungry, under
