that they know the worst that this mountain
can do, and they believe that they can go over
the top to victory.
THE fascination which this unfriendly but
very beautiful mountain holds for noun
tain explorers is not easy for groundlings to ap-
preciate, as they hear Of the ordeals endured.
At such attitudes as 10000 feet, or even
10000 natives live comfortably in high plateaus
of the world. But for q man to try to rise to
$4,000 feet within few weeks is something en-
tirely different. The machinery of heart and
lungs is thrown violently out Of adjustment
Climbers back from Everest expeditions tell
vividly Of their feelings on the climb Their
hearts pound mercilessly. The thin air parches
their throats. Their lungs feel stifed for want
Of oxygen. A dragging stupidity overwhelms
them, SO that any exertion seems too much.
Yet they must try to take pictures, or aid in
camp work, or push their dragging bodies for
ward to a higher, more perilous station.
Capt. Noel, Photographic historian of the
1922 and 1924 expeditions, tells In his book,
1.-THE Story Of Everest" about his struggle to
get four cameras, tripods, supplies, developing
tent and tanks up the most difficult mountain
trails in the world and up to the glacial heights
Of the highest mountain.
eras up to $4,000 feet And he adds with the
matter-of-fact simplicity that characterizes
those who set records on Everest: THAT Is the
altitude record for any motion picture ma

second benefit derived from the mail con-
tracts. according to MI. Glover. was the neces-
sity of new ship construction costing 0000-
600, all Of which was spent in this country on
American labor and American material. This
huge expenditure incidentally assured the
United States Of second rank Tn merchant
marine tonnage among the various shipping
nations
It is estimated that fully $500 600 600 which
would have gone to foreign ship lines in freight
charges prior to the enactment of the mer-
chant marine act now 60 to American shippers
who established new routes over which this
freight formerly passed in foreign ships. That
naturally means a great economic benefit to
this country.
The final defense which Mr. Glover makes
Of the merchant marine act and the course
which the Post Ofhce Department pursues in
carrying out its terms is the value to this
country in having huge reserve of ships avail
able in case Of war for duty with the Army
and Navy. This merchant marine feet means
a tremendous tonnage available for the carry
ing Of supplies or conversion into transport
ships should such ships be required. The lesson
of the World War is far too fresh in the
average mind to have permitted people to forget
the mad haste with which ships of all kinds
we're thrown together to inset the pressing need
for tonnage brought about by the activities of
the German submarines. The steel ships,
wooden ships and concrete ships which were
constructed in this country cost an enormous
sum. estimated at So 900 600 900. and this huge
expenditure was hardly able to keep pace with
the rate Of sinkings accomplished by the under
sea beats of the German fleet
The insurance which a commanding tonnage
Of American merchant ships gives this country
against any future situation comparable to that
Of the World War makes the expenditure of the
annual loss under the present mail contracts
seem a mere bagatelle, says Mr.. Glover, and he
believes that the Government should continue
to progress in shipping until the present total
Of one-third in value and 40 per cent in volume
of American exports carried by American ships
shall be far exceeded and America rank FIRST
in merchant marine

Going to his room he slumped down on

impulse had seized him to do what he had

His chance for revenge had come and he had
let it slip. But in his heart he knew that

way so was Jim Fenlow. If only Red would
keep still about it. 1t didn't matter what Red
thought. Don made up his mind to leave
Penbury definitely when the term was up.
At that moment Red, still lingering the
check Don had given him, heard some one
coming up the stairs. Quickly he slipped the
check in his coat pocket Jim Fenlow was
standing in the doorway.

Poisoned Food Sei%ed

ONE of the problems of the Federal food
~ inspectors which requires greatest care
is the problem of residues Of poisonous sprays
left on garden truck at the time it is sent to
market. Too frequently truck gardeners, either
through indifference or failure to appreciate
the danger, fail to wash of the residue left
from spraying arsenicals before sending their
product to market.
It is often vital to the production Of q crop
that the poison sprays be used to prevent the
attacks of insects which might otherwise ruin
the plants before they reach maturity and pro-
duce their harvest. AT the present time arseni-
Gals are found to be best against leaf-eating in
sects. These poisons, however, if used judici-
ously and at the proper season may well be out
of the way through the wash of rain long be-
bore the crops are ready to market. However,
where late spraying has been resorted to, 1t Is
necessary to wash the product going to market
or trim away parts of the vegetable being ship
ped in order to remove the danger.
Recently the food inspectors in Philadelphia
ran across a situation which caused them to
seize 500 cases Of cauliflower which were found
to have dangerous quantities Of the arsenic still
present. It meant the destruction of nearly
10000 heads Of the vegetable.
During the course of a season, thousand upon
thousand shipments are inspected and during
that time more than hundred shipments were
found in such condition that confiscation was
the only way open in order that the pubic
might be protected.

Special Session
Early This Month

WASHINGTON, March 3. W.P)-
The house mapority leader, Rainey,
today warned members to stay in
Washington to be present at a spe-
cial session of congress which may
be called next week.
Some Democratic members who
live only days trip from the capi
tai were included in the list which
house whips, under Raineys di-
rection, were advising to stay with
in immediate call.
WASHINGTON March 3. W.P)-
Speaker Garner, after a morning
conference with President elect
Roosevelt, indicated today that the
special session of congress would
be called early this month.
The speaker would give no indi-
cation as to the exact date.
'Mr. Roosevelt has the informa-
tion and can give it to you," the
speaker said in answer to direct
questions as to whether the special
session would be called in mid
March.
However, he added he believed
Roosevelt was virtually convinced
that congress must be summoned
much earlier than the April II
date originally set.

OHIO PLAN OF
BANK CONTROL
CREATES CZAR

CLEVELAND, O., March 3. U.P)
The emergency banking legisla-
tion enacted by the Ohio legislature
this week as a palliative for pres
ent financial difficulties has made
Ira j. Fulton, state superintendent
of banking . virtual GEAR.
Under terms of the two new laws,
Fulton is clothed with authority to
permit any bank to restrict with
drawals when the drastic action
appears necessary in the interest OF
the majority of the depo5itors. The
term of restriction may be for 60
days but the superintendent is au-
thorized to extend the restrictions
for a second period of go days if
necessary.
The banking superintendent also
is authorized to take over the bus
iness and property of any bank
upon presentation of resolution
requesting this action, adopted by
the banks board of directors.
The law provides, further, that
he may reopen any bank he has
taken over under conditions ap-
proved by court of common pleas.
Purpose of the approval clause. it
is explained, is to permit the super
intendent to restrict Withdrawals
in a re-opened bank until the in
Stitution is definitely stabilized

WASHINGTON, March 3. - En-
tering his last "a hours as private
citizen, President -elect Roosevelt
today turned his major attention
to the nations banking situation,
fully aware of the responsibilities
that are about to be thrust upon
his shoulders.
Sitting in his hotel room, the in
coming President, smiling, calm,
with a note of assurance with his
view, talked rapidly with one caller
after another, gathering their views
but withholding any hint of his
own plans.
Mr.. Roosevelt conferred with two
of his prospective cabinet members,
Senator Cordell Hull, who is to be
secretary of state, and Senator
Claude Swanson, who is to be sec
retary of navy, and James A. Far
ley, who is to be postmaster gen.
eral.
He also saw Senator Robert J..
Bulkley CDem) Ohio, Professor
Raymond Moley, and Edward j..
Flynn, New York secretary of state
and one of the Roosevelt political
leaders in New York.
Speaker Garner, soon to be Vice
President, spent a half hour with
Mr.. Roosevelt and left by rear
door.

the President-elect, called on her

murder, after he failed to convince
officers he knew nothing of his

Lovejoy's body was found in the

Soules, according to Capt. William

that Lovejoy and another youth
went out Wednesday night to stage

Lovejoy apparently ran 100 yards

HOOVER DEFERS
To ROOSEVELT
Retiring President Willing To
Issue Statement On Banks If
Successor Desires.
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY

BY RICHARD Il. OhlDLEf
WASHINGTON, March 8. -
President-elect Roosevelt turned
his attention to the national bank
ing situation today in a series Of
conferences with congressional lead
ers.
At the same time President
Hoover was in conference with
Secretary of Treasury Mills study
ing all developments.
The United Press was informed
that although President Hoover
had not wished to make any move
of his own, he made known
through Intermediates that he
would be willing to issue any state
ment or message that Mr.. Roose-
velt desired and that he had been
informed that there was nothing
Mr.. Roosevelt wished the President
to say on his behalf at the mo-
ment.
In congress, Senator Dill Dem)
Washington, urged that immediate
action be taken to authorize the
postal savings banks to accept
checking accounts so as to provide
system whereby the people will
have currency with which to trans
act their daily business.
Just previously the senate adopt
ed a resolution permitting the
controller of the currency to de-
clare moratorium in the District
of Columbia. The house still has
to act. 1t was believed this was a
precautionary measure as only one
important bank in Washington has
closed though one large institution
and several smaller ones have re-
stricted Withdrawals to five per
cent.
WASHINGTON, March 3. U.P)-
Senator Gore Dem) Oklahoma,
today introduced a bill granting the
incoming President sweeping power
to secure bank deposits under
emergency financial conditions.
Cores measure was the third to
be introduced in the senate today
to meet banking crisis which has
spread halfway through the nation.
1t provides that the comptroller
of the currency, during the life of
the first session of the 73d con-
gress. shall be subject to an order
of the President to enforce suit
able rules and regulations to main
tain or strengthen the security of
deposits"
