JAPAN
LIKES F. D.

AMES, Ia, Nov. 16. UP)-Japan-
ese officials are in accord with the
present administration in the Unit
ed States, according to Prof. Nit
chell v. Charnley, Iowa State Col
lege, journalism instructor.
Charnley recently returned from
six weeks tour of the Far East
as an escort for three American
high school boys, who were Win
ners of the trip in an essay con-
test.
He was told that Japan feels that
the Roosevelt administration un-
derstands the japanese position and
is much more friendly than was
the preceding administration.
Feeling in Japan has altered
radically from the time of the
StinSon notes concerning Japan
ese activities in Manchuria. Many
japanese in public and private life
anticipate early revision of the
United States exclusion acts, Char
ley said.
The three American boys and
Charnley were publicized as "Good
Will Ambassadors and were eX-
tended every courtesy possible.
They were accompanied through
out the entire journey by an es-
cort of officials and interpreters.

WILL STAGE
JEWEL HUNT

Announcement has been made by
the El Centro Chamber of Com
merce that the first jewel hunting
expedition since cooler weather
will gather this weekend to hunt
geodeS in the Chuckawalla Noun
tains. It should be explained thai
a geode is not an animal nor a new
variety of cacti, but is a rock for
nation which may or may not con-
tain a semi-precious stone in its
center.
This caravan has been arranged
by H. L. Bush, who has investigat-
ed the Chuckawalla area carefully
and the group will be guided to their
destination by Vining Bryant of
Brawley. The jewel hunters will
meet at o'clock Saturday after
noon at 467 D. street, Brawley, and
drive as far as possible before dark.
An overnight camp will be made,
and The party will continue on
foot about two miles Sunday morn
ing, returning as the individual dri-
vers desire during the day.

quested to take their own water,
food and blankets and, while hik-
ing clothes are not necessary, Bush
stated that old shoes should be
worn. This mountain trip is not
safe to make alone unless familiar
with the Chuckawalla area, accord
ing to Bush and it is for that rea-
son that a group is being formed to
go. Three cars have already signed
up and any others who care to go
are urged to telephone to Bush or
the chamber of commerce as soon
as possible because it it planned to
keep the caravan down to less than
ten cars.
For those who cannot make the
trip this weekend Bush has plan
ned another geode expedition about
the middle of December, but he
points out that those making this
first trip will have the best oppor-
tunity to get choice stones. The see
mic value of the trip alone is worth
the time which will be spent in the
Chuckawalla Mountains, Bush
states and he promises those who
go a drink at a beautiful noun
tain spring, unusual in Imperial
Valley, which springs from paint
ed wash unsurpassed for its beau-
ty.

FEDERAL WORK At SAL TON SEA
TOLD At CHAMBER LUNCHEON

At yesterdays El Centro Cham
Der of Commerce luncheon, Charles
S. Cook, assistant cadastral engin-
eer of the bureau Of biological re-
search, told of the work which the
government plans to do in connec-
ton with establishing a refuge for
migratory fowl at the southern end
of the Salton Sea. Cook is in charge
of the group of engineers who ar
rived in Imperial Valley three weeks
ago to start this work.
The speaker explained that the
government had acquired Is suit
able marsh and water areas in the
United States for migratory bird
refugees, each about 10000 acres in
extent. In addition preliminary eX-
aminations are being made of some
3,500,000 acres which might be suit
able for this purpose. In each Of
these there must be natural water
or means of carrying water in Or
der that water fowl may rest, feed
and breed.
At the present time the boun-
daries of the $4,000 acre preserve
at the southern end Of Salton Sea
Imperial Valley press., 1933-11-16

are being established. a difficult
task as some markers were estab-
lished as early as 1880 and are cov-
cred with silt or actually under wa
ter. Boundaries will be marked by
metal monuments and buoys and
fresh water will be brought in from
the waste irrigation waters through
canals to dykes which form small
lakes. If this work is found prac-
ticable, Cook stated, wild rice and
wild celery will be planted in the
lakes forming a feeding place for
the birds which will protect Imper-
ial Valley crops from their depre-
dations.
Although this refuge will be closed
to hunters, the speaker explained
that it will not interfere with hunt
ing on other sections of the sea, as
the supply of ducks will be in
creased and sportsmen may shoot
them coming into and leaving the
refuge.

Nash Ready to Show New Car 1884 Model Is Designed to Startle Motoring
 Public

The Nash factory executives sent along a thrill to Century of Progress crowds yesterday. Four of the 16 glistening Nash models on display in the travel and trans- port area had been removed and in their place were huge placards bearing the startling announce ment that Nash is preparing to make motoring a sport again" by the introduction in the very near future of 1884 cars.
 Something decidedly new is on the way for 1884. The Waterury Nash Go, 395 West Main street, will be one of the first Nash agen- cies in the state to receive the new Nash line when distribution is made.
 None of the details of the prom. ised advanced construction, style, and performance of the coming cars were disclosed, but the un- usual Nash announcement and the promise of the unprecedented pre- showing was sufficient to fire the imagination of worlds fair visitors and to cause universal speculation about Nash plans.
 Rumors concerning the startling performance of Nash test cars have been Altering through the in- dustry for weeks. They have come from the famous test hills of Penn sylvania and the Rockies, from tho long level highway stretches of Kansas and the western plains, from desert sand pits and other To- cations where tests for power, speed, stamina, cooling, accelera- tion and all other performance qualities have been made by Nash engineers.

Believe It Came Down in Same Canadian Zone Where the Polish Bal. IOOnists Were Landed

Chicago, Sept 11-(UP)-Hope for the safety of the one unac- counted for balloon in the Cor don Bennett race was heartened to- day by discovery of the missing Polish bag, lost for seven days. The Polish balloonists, Captain Fransizek Hynek and Lieutenant Zbiginew Bursynski, arrived at Riviere a Pierre, in the province of Quebec, Canada, after wandering for five days through wildernesses They had travelled approximately $40 miles from Chicago, farther than Lieut. T. G. w. Settle, pilot of the navy bag, who landed near New Haven, Conn.,, more than 10o miles from Chicago. Tho missing balloon was piloted by the stellar American bolloonist, | Ward T. Von Orman who was ac- companied by Frank Trotter. It was believed his bag took course somewhat similar to that Of the Poles. He was reported sighted near Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., a week ago today.
 officials believed Van orman and Trotter-came down in a sparsely settled region on Canada and had not yet been able to communicate with civilization.
 Contest officials said both Amer ican and Canadian authorities would continue a search for the American bag.

 Quebec, Sept 11-(UP)-Two Pc. fish balloonists, Captain Hynek and Lieutenant Borzynski, claimed a new free balloon record today of 1050 miles. After being missing a week, they turned up at the village of Riviere a Pierre. They took off Saturday from Chicago in the Ben- nett international trophy race.
 The aeronauts awaited instruc- tions at Riviere a Pierre, from the Polish consul, after a ive-day trek through the wilderness from where their bag landed on tree tops to the railroad village of Lemineux. Their sole substenance consisted Of Q dozen oranges from the provis- ions they had taken on the flight.
 Lieut. Burzynski told of the ordeal over the telephone. He was sur prlsed that he and his companion had been given up for lost. "We firmly believed, all along, that we would come out right-side upper most" he said.
 For five solid days we walked through dense forests, not sighting q soul until we struck railroad trucks at noon Saturday. Then we found we were near the village of Lemineux, and we were warmly greeted. We were given substantial meals, our first in five days. which, needless to say, we did full justice to.
