URGES FRANCE
To PAY DEBT
Deputy Introduces Resolution
To Meet Installment Defaulted
By Nation To United States.

PARIS, March 18. U.P}-Deputy
Rene Richard today introduced a
motion in the. chamber of deputies
demanding that France pay the
mid-December debt installmenI due
the United States.
The motion was believed to be
inspired and backed by ex-Premier
Herriot, long an advocate of meet
ing the $19,000,000.
Richard, member of the radical
Socialist party, declared his de-
mand for payment was not ques-
ton of right, but a gesture honor
ing the chamber and France. He
declared payment would make for
international solidarity.
Observers consider it significant
that Richards motion comedies
with the visit of Finance Minister
Georges Bonnet to London where
he discussed war debts with Neville
Chamberlain, British chancellor of
the exchequer. 1t is understood the
question of the attitudes of the two
nations toward the June INSTALL
ments were under discussion In the
London meetings which are now
continuing.
The French foreign office admits
debts were discussed in London,
and said Bonnet was satisfied with
the results.
The Richard motion invites the
French government Ito place at the
disposition of the United States
government the adjourned pay
ment in mid December and de
clared that severe crisis has
struck the money and credit of the
United States"
The motion emphasizes the moral
benefits to France.

NEW GOLD RECOVERY
 METHOD BEING TRIED

A new system of milling gold ore which is said to reduce the co'9t by 50 per cent and to make possible the profitable handling of low-grade quartz is being tried out by the Car son Hill Gold Mining Company in Calaveras county, Calf.
 Company officials said the system called for the regrind- ing of concentrates and mid dlings after their being crushed through stamps and ball mills and concentrated. By the re- grinding, operators said, more than 75 per cent of all gold in the millings is extracted inn mediately. The tailings then go to a cyanide plant where the remainder of the precious metal is recovered.

Why Word "Taliy" 1. Used

The word tally" comes through the old English from the French "taille" "a cutting. And the original tally was a piece of wood on which notches were cut to keep accounts. Then it was one of two books or sheets of paper on which corresponding ac- counts were kept. At one time 1t was customary for traders to have two sticks, or two halves of the same stick, on which notches were cut, or marks made. to indicate the quantity of goods bought and sold. Before the use of writing. this was the only known method of keeping accounts. Tallies were regarded as evidence in the courts. and In the English ex- chequer there were tallies of loans, one being kept, the duplicate being given to the creditor as receipt.

Why Hoopsnake Does Not
 Roll Along Like a Hoop

The hoopsnake is small and harm. less snake of the south Atlantic states. so-called because of the notion that 1t curves Itself into hoop takes it's tail into it's mouth and rolls along at a merry clip. This notion is pure ly mythical, although 1t is believed by many. especially the backland negroes. That any snake could perform such a feat Is absurd. and taking into con- ! sideration the anatomical pecularities of the vertebral column 1t is clearly impossible. The hoopsnake does much of his travelling underground, burrow- ing deeply into the soil. He is rath- CT good looking snake, with a blue black back, marked with three red lines, and an under side of the shade called nude. dappled In black.

FIVE POPULAR SPECIES.
 IN SALMON FAMILY

Alaska is the greatest sal mon producing country in the world but a lot of Alaskans do not know much about them.
 There are five popular spec
 ies, each with distinctive char acteristics. The chinook, king, or spring salmon is the largest of all and was the first variety to be canned. Its meat varies in color from deep salmon red to a pinkish white. This sal mon has a higher fat content than the other. Also, because of it's size, it has more meat and less skin; therefore it makes an especially good ap- pearance serve dfrom the can.
 The red, sockeye, or blue back is perhaps better known than the chinook. It is of a deep red color, of firm texture, with small bones and the flakes are small and thin. It has a lower fat and higher protein content than the other salmon.
 The coho is a medium red salmon, and while it's food val ue flavor and texture are good, because of its lighter color it sells at less than the others.
Hyder weekly herald., 1933-08-26

The pink salmon is the small e1t of the salmons. It is of good flavor and is nutritious, its protein content being as high as that of the other sal mons. Its cost is less than the above mentioned salmons.
 Chum is the cheapest of all canned salmons. It is very pale in color, yet it is wholesome, of good flavor, and while lower in fat content it's protein is equal to that of the other salmons.

The posi- tive charges go in one direction, the negative ones in the opposite direc- ton, The direction of the current flow Is that in which the positive charges move.

my birthplace. El Paso.
So | was considered a pretty good

alp these experiences, and Colonel
Selig hired me-
My reason for trying to get into
the movies came about through Z
series Of events. First I had leased

all wrong.

AS matter OF fact, nobody even
paid the slightest bit OF attention to
us. To this day cow hand can walk
through the streets Of Hollywood and
attract less attention than fat man

Well, then came the Job I told you
about-the safety man.
Soon after I worked myself Into
bits and small parts and doubled for
the leading men on all the dangerous
stunt riding.
All this time | was still nursing the
urge to tell the whole world how aw-
full the western pictures were and my
opportunity came with bang when
William Fox signed me to long term
contract.

To make sure In case anything went
wrong, was certain to get the blame,
Mr.. Fox made me write the stories,
direct them and play the leads. The
results, I say with all due modesty,
were far beyond my own expectations.
Their immediate success convinced
many producers that Western stories
written by Eastern tenderfeet and
portrayed by the same breed of actors

OF the West Is Of supreme interest to
thousands of young boys throughout
the country and perhaps the world. I
also realize that boys are prone to
Initiate In their play many OF the
things they see In pictures or read
about.
And with no consideration OF my
self except as probable example, I
realize that boys set some figures. like
Babe Ruth or Lindbergh, as their Ideal
