SLEEPING WOMAN
IN. SECOND YEAR
Doctors Continue Battle to
Save Patricia Mcguire
of Chicago.
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, February 15.-Asleep a
year-and Leap year at that: Three
hundred Sixty-six days and nights
without known moment OF conscious
ness, 27-year-old Patricia Mcguire has
slumbered-a puzzle to physicians.
She was as unmindful Of the recent
sub-Zero temperatures as she was OF
last Summers heat waves.
A year ago. February IS, a doctor
was called by an anxious Oak Park
family. They could not arouse Patricia.
For DAYS she had complained Of feeling
$50 tired and sleepy" She had been
sleeping extra time. And then
Sleeping sickness" or lethargic en-
cephalitis, pronounced the medical au-
thority.
Science Begins Battle.
Then began the battle-still un-
ended-of medical sciences efforts to
restore consciousness to the pretty bru-
nette.
All they have been able to do has
been to keep UP her physical strength
by forced feelings of nourishing
liquids Until last June she was fed
by nasal tube.
The early treatment included serum
injections made from her blood, but
these were without results, although
there have been periods of increased
restlessness, when the watchers thought
Patricia was on the fringe of awaking.
A blood TRANSMISSION was tried a
month ago. The blood was given by
her step-father, Peter Miley. Anxious
ly the doctors and family watched, but
there has been no noticeable change.

ful waiting.
Other Long Sleeps.
Confronting the mother, sister and
nurse, who, today, began their second
year of care, were records OF longer
periods of Inconsistencies than Pa
tricia's.
There's the reported case Of the 10
year -old Russian girl, Evdokiya Licha-
gina, who awakened after seven years
and two months. Then there's the
case of Jim Eashinger of Fort Smith,
Ark, who died in 1922 after sleeping
seven and half years.
Sleeping Sickness" as it Is known
In this country, is believed by many
scientists to be a form of brain dis
order or fever of which the cause and
cure are unknown At times, as in
1919 and 1920, it has assumed epidemic
proportions.

Hermit Prefers
Tent in Cold to
Home on Charity

KALISPELL, Mont. February
15.-Frozen ground for a bed
with the mercury at so degrees
below zero and a ragged tent for
a home, attract Bob Bales, SIS,
more than the comforts of the
County Community Home.
Bales begged to be. allowed to
return to his tent far up in the
wild South Fork country, but
county authorities decided he
should remain here until Spring.
Bales was discovered by two
trappers as they mushed out to
civilization. They followed ski
tracks to his tent, finding him
dressed in rags and eating the
carcasses of beasts left by preda-
tory animals. The hermit said
he had lived in the woods 80
years.

Hyder weekly herald., 1933-02-18

CT, has been assigned temporar- fly to the Stewart district to assist the resident constable, c. Potterton.
 It is understood that the as- signment of Constable McAl- pine was ordered owing to the discovery that the fomentors of the labor strike at Anyox were planning to induce a similar disturbance at the Premier mine. It appears, however, that the action of the police authorities in taking prompt charge of the situation at An yox either thwarted or disar- ranged the plans of the agitat- ing elements to invade this district, as no attempts have been made to create discord at Premier, so far as could be learned.

Diamond Has Many Plans
 To Assist Ter-itory

Delegate-elect Anthony J. Diamond will go to Washing ton with many different plans to assist Alaska, according to an interview published by the Fairbanks News Miner.
 One of the projects which he considers of the utmost import ance and which he will endeav- or to carry out embraces a radi- cal departure from the present method of administering the Territory's fish, game and fur resources by having all control of game, fur and fish turned over to Territorial administrat- ion.
 MT. Diamond also intends to do everything possible to as- sure an early start on the con- struction on the International Highway and believes there should be no delay in building the American section as far as the boundary line. This, he believes, would stimulate the Canadians into action.
 The delegate-elect favors linn

ited commercial fishing in the Kuskokwim and Yukon rivers by natives and bona fide resi- dents as a means of providing them livelihood It would give them a chance to make at least a living, something which is difficult now with furs at current prices, he says.
 MT. Diamond recently re- turned from several thous- and mile airplane trip to the Nome district, made solely to acquaint himself with the needs of that section and thus be in a better position to rep resent the Territory in Cong ress.

farmers of this country, are facing bankruptcy and ruin.
 Wageworkers' income dur ing the same period has fallen from S53,OO0,000,000 in 1929 to an estimated income for 19- 32 of only $28,000,000,000. The farmers loss of income was due to falling prices; while the wageworker's loss was due to the cutting of wag- es and unemployment, which in turn was caused by the loss of purchasing pow yer due to falling prices. Unless Congress takes some very prompt and very drastic action to care for our unemployed millions and to restore com- modity prices, we will have a complete collapse of our finan- cial set-up, followed perhaps with more severe shake-up of our political institutions than we have ever had or dared think about. I make that state ment seriously after having travelled during the past few months from the Atlantic to the Pacific and discussing the situ- ation with leaders of industry and finance, as we'll as with farm and labor leaders.
 Make no mistake about that, people are not going to starve in the midst of plenty. The few hundred of hunger march CTS who came to Washington to lay their grievances before Congress will be but the ad- vance guard of many thous- ands who will come unless speedy relief is found for the eleven millions of unemployed in this country, and some pro- vision made to save the farm CTS from the land banks and mortgage companies who are now foreclosing on their farms and taking possession of them at bargain prices.
 "Just a few days ago bank rupt farmers marched 0 II Washington and with deter imitation in their voices and fire in their eyes declared that the banks might get title to their farms, but they would never get possession of them.
