CEDAR TO LOOK FOR SCOW LOST
 DURING STORM
Lighthouse Tend CT Will Leave Port Late Today
 for Gulf of Alaska

To search for a scow lost by the motorship Alder of the Light house Service, in the Gulf of Alas ka about 20 miles Southwest of Ocean Cape, during the recent storm, the Lighthouse tender Ce- dar. Capt. J. w. Leadbetter, will leave port late today.
 The Cedar arrived in port yes terday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock to take on oil and ballast before leav- ing for the gulf to look for the scow, which is considered menace to navigation, c pt. Leadbetter said. Warnings to all ships and stations were sent out immediately upon the receipt on Tuesday of the Alder's report saying the scow was lost.
 Towing the scow, the Alder left Cape Hinchenbrook on October 20 and on the Fist message. was re- ceived from the vessel saying 1t had passed Cape St. Elias and the weather was good No further word was received until Tuesday when the Alder arrived at Port Althorp and reported the loss of the scow during the storm, Capt. Leadbetter said.
 It is believed that the Alder struck the gale early Sunday morning and that the scow was lost on the same day when the storm became so severe that it was unable to tow it further.
 The Cedar will leave port as soon as the loading of oil and bal- last is completed and will proceed to the vicinity of the loss, from where it will cruise east and west, zigzagging in a southerly direction to search for the scow, Capt. Lead better declared. If it is found, the scow will be removed from the path of navigation and lowed to Ketchikan by the Cedar.
 When the message to proceed in search of the scow was received the Cedar was completing a trip throughout this district, leaving buoys and supplying the light sta tions with coal. Practically every station, with the exception oi Southeast Five Finger light station had been visited when the trir was interrupted, Capt. Leadbettel said. Only two good days have been encountered during the 22- day cruise, since the vessel left it' base at Ketchikan, he declared.

Modern College Girls
Heavier Than Mothers

In his study of college girls Gordon
Townsend Bowles, research student
In anthropology at Harvard university
finds that they average feet $40
inches In height. This represents an
average gain In height over their
of / LILO inches. At the
same time the daughters averaged
1a4 pounds In weight, which Is IA
pounds more than their mothers
weighed atthe same age.
Some may be surprised Mt Bowles'
finding TINT the girls of today are
taller-and heavier-thap their moth
ers. After all the talk one hears
OF dieting and the hnbftuai REFER
ences In novels and magazine stories
to slim heroInes one naturally thinks
the present-day girl must be lighter
than her mId-Victorian predecessor.
But 1t has been said that Figures
don't lie." And, no doubt, that must
apply to the figures under discussion
as we'll as to columns of statistics.
Bowlese also contrndlcts another
popular belief, namely, TINT a first
born son is usually larger and
huskler thnn his younger brothers.
He shows from his studies that just
the opposite Is true.
His study is based largely upon
measurements OF Harvard fathers
and sons Of old American stock,
principally of English, Scotch. Irish
and German ancestry. 1t includes
records Of 1000 pairs OF fathers and
sons as well as comparison OF Sal
brothers.
The study OF the girls Is based on
a comparison Of 1,071 mothers and
daughters at, Wellesley, Vassar,
Smith and Mount Holyoke colleges.
Records obtained In physical ex-
aminatlons at the various colleges
furnished the data used In the COM
PARSONS.
Bowles' study covers considerable
ground 1t involved over $4,000
measurements and includes In Its
correlations the measurements OF

Revolution and the stature of Swiss,

TWO BILLIONS READY
FOR PUBLIC PROJECTS
Robert Says Immediate Distribu-
ton of Money Will Relieve
Unemployment.
BY the Associated Press.

ATLANTA, May 31.-L. w. Robert,
jr., Assistant Secretary of the Treasury,
in an interview here yesterday said i'm
mediate distribution of $4,000, ,000, 900
from the Federal Treasury among the
States for public improvement will con-
stitute one of the major factors in re-
lieving unemployment and establishing
normal economic conditions.
Mr. Robert said this sum Is available
by the enactment by Congress of a
measure appropriating $4,000, 100000 to
finance a Nation-wi construction pro-
gram as one of the items in President
Roosevelt's anti-depression program.
"As understand it." said Mr.. Robert.
who Is in charge of construction of Gov
ernment buildings. this two billion
dollars need not be used to build self
liquidating projects.
"States, counties, municipalities and
other political subdivisions may obtain
this money for construction of all kinds
of public improvements, such as public
buildings, sewers, waterworks and SINH
lar projects that are necessary and
feasible"
He said the Government will put up
80 per cent of the cost of such improve
ments, the remaining 10 per cent to
be furnished by the political unit in
volved.
