SAYS LINGO
NOT SLANG

BERKELEY, June 20. U.P)-Col-
lege students are not using slang
when they speak of "apple- polish
ing, "exes', and other express
sions common on the campus, ac-
cording to Prof. A. R. Thompson,
of the University of California pub
lie speaking department.
They merely are speaking the
technical language" of university
life, he declares .e
"Slang is a very loosely used
term, said Professor Thompson in
explaining the difference between
English used by a student and that
of a "lay' person.
All occupations have terms pc
culiar to their type of work. This
forms a technical language which
cannot properly be called slang
The ''lingo' of the campus adds
to a student IS vocabulary, he. said,
with the result that he has wider
command of English.
LAS a result, the college student
speaks better English than do those
who have not attended institutions
of higher learning he added.
Despite allegations that the "lin-
co. of university students is not
always comprehensive off the cam
pus, DR.. j. S. Tatlock, of the Eng
lish department, believes that col
lege English is not much different
from that of the average American
citizen.

LOCAL CHAMBER PROTESTS PLAN
TO END MARKET NEWS SERVICE

will be given to the matter when
protests are received from the
various agricultural communities
of the state and the importance
of this service to California agri-
culture is stressed by the various
sections affected by this order.
The market reporting service in
Imperial Valley was originally es-
tablish in the fall of 1923, largely
through the efforts of the Ell Cen
tro Chamber of Commerce, with
the assistance of the farm bureau
and the farm advisors office, Rep
resentatives in Washington and in
Sacramento at that time took an
interest in the matter and the
equipment for the short wave radio
service was installed in the Hotel
Barbara Worth late in the year
1928. This service was first install
led to operate merely during the
lettuce and cantaloupe shipping
seasons, but, through further ac-
tivity on the part of the Ell Centre
Chamber, was later extended to
cover a IL month period.
Late in the year 1929 the federal
state market reporting service was
moved to Brawley and has been
located in that city at the Planters
Hotel since that time, serving the
entire valley from that point.
Hays stated today, This service
is of particular Importance to I'M
perial Valley, which ships about
10000 carloads of perishables an
nually and its discontinuanee will
work hardship on growers and
shippers of perishables from this.
community 1t is also of import
ance to all of California because
California ships about As per cent
of all fruits, vegetables and pro-
duce moving in commerce and IS
per cent of CALIFORNIA; agricultural
products are shipped to the east,
giving this state an enormous mar
keting field We will not let this
service be discontinued without
vigorous protest and it is our hope
that this drastic order may be re-
scinded and the federal-state mar
ket reporting service be allowed to
continue its important and nee
eSSary work"

Immediately upon learning to-
day that an order had been issued
to discontinue the federal-stai.e
market reporting service in I'M
perial Valley, Robert Hays, man
ager of the FL Centre Chamber of
Commerce took the matter up with
local lettuce and cantaloupe grow
ers and shippers and has tele-
graphed a protest to state officials
and to the California delegation
in Washington, urging the impor-
lance of continuing this service.
Replies would indicate that the
service is not only to be discon-
tinued in this community but that
the entire federal-state market re-
porting service is to be discon-
tinued due to the present econ
omy program which has the
appropriation for this service. 1t

BY SISTER MARY
NEA Service Writer

THE summer dessert often fills
L an unusual place in the menu.
Instead of being just pleasant
tasting last dish, it can be the
main part of the menu, furnish
ing the nourishment usually pro-
vided by meat and potatoes. A
luncheon of hot or jellied bouil-
don. a vegetable salad and rolls
and dessert made with milk and
eggs and rice or tapioca is we'll
balanced as to calories, mineral
content and yitamins.
1t is saving OF both time and
money If the desseHDf every meal
is made to count definitely.
In summer the sweetness of
desserts should be given careful
attention. A very sweet dessert
often adds much TO the fuel value
of meal because sugar is quick
energizer or stimulant.
Choose a rice or cereal pudding
when the meal has been lacking
in bulk and breadstuffs.
Fruit Has Many Advantages
Fruit is a splendid dessert on
several counts. The serving of
fresh fruit saves time, an import
ant factor in busy mothers day.
Fruit cups" prevent waste on
many occasions. Served in such
combination, no fruit need go beg
ging because there's not enough
TO "go round"
Fruit juices stiffened by the
addition of gelatin make fine hot
weather desserts for almost all
ages and types OF persons.
Rice buildings always are ac-
ceptabie and can be as inexpen-
sive and simple as one wishes.

UNDERMINING
j. s. BONDS
PROBED
Sen. Harrison Promises New
Legislation to Curb Wall
Street if Necessary
BY International News Service

New banking legislation to
safeguard Government credit
against Unreasonable attacks"
was demanded today by Sena-
tor Pat Harrison (D.) of Mis-
sissippi.
Harrison's demand was made as
the Administration launched a
sweeping investigation into charges
that a group of New York bankers
have conSpired to wreck the Gov
ernment bond market through
short sales of securities held in
their own portfolios.
Probe Under Way
The investigation into these
charges is being conducted by the
New York Federal Reserve Bank
and by the Government.
Describing the charges as "of
utmost seriousness" Harrison eX-
pressed confidence that the true
facts will be ascertained speedily.
He declared:
'If there is any movement on
the part Of .4ny bank or banker
to loan Government securities
for the purpose of affecting the
credit of this Government, the
facts ought to be aScertained
and if the law has been violated,
the perpetrators should be con-
victed.
TREASON, HE SAYS
"TO deliberately depress the
Government bond market in an
effort to destroy the credit of
the United States in my opinion
amounts to treason"
James H. Rand, jr.. president of
the Remington-Rand Company and
chairman of the Committee for
the Nation, asserted that the mo-
tive for apparently concerted bond
selling operations was to diScredit
the Administrations monetary pol
icies and force a return to the old
regime of banker domination over
the Treasury.
