there are other sections still in the
early stages of development.
1t is planned to open the high
way merely as lane of traffic,
paving such portions as arc now
unpaved when traffic justifies the
expense, Kellogg said Sponsors of
the movement believe this VIII be
within the next few years, since the
road traverses beautiful country
and offers none of the dangers OF
mountain driving.
Since the beginning of the move
ment for the Imperial highway its
sponsors have considered every
means of tightening the financial
burden ON the taxpayers. opposing
special improvement districts ex-
cept where absolutely necessary.

In describing the advantages OF
the new highway. the secretary de-
clared it Shortens the distance TO

Going on to- the possibilities of
the project, kellogg said plans
have been laid which would enable
widening of the highway to uni
form l00-feet width throughout its
entire length when such an i'm
provement is justified by traffic.
| One plan projecting unique
development is that calling for
planting of cacti along the desert
stretch, making it the only high
way in the west exemplifying fully
the spirit of the desert country
through which it passes and off,

publicity.
Kellogg commented on the SER

ty board of supervisors and the
people of Imperial county general

as outstanding leaders in this de-

EARTH SLOWLY
GETTING WARM

EXPERT GIVES FIGURES

London.-The world is gradually
becoming warmer and dryer, accord
ing to the view held by Sir Doug
las Mawson, Polar explorer, and DR..
c. E. P. Brooks, meteorological ex-
pert, a leading authority on the eff
fects of the Polar conditions on eli
mate.
This warming up process is SLOW"
says Sir Douglas, ''1n fact we may
all expect a rise in average temper
ature of two or three degrees each
1000 years.
I'VE are approaching the end of
this Ice age. The ice has left most
of the British Isles, most of Scandi-
navia and most of Iceland.
'But it fingers around Greenland
and still covers the poles. In time 1t
may all melt, and there may be no
ice-even at the poles. Such periods
must have occurred before in the
worlds history.
"The present masses of ice at
the poles may have an area of $780,
600 square miles, and the average
thickness approaches 1000 feet.
IF all this Ice melts the level of
the ocean would rise forty to fifty
feet.
"The smaller the amount of ice
the dryer the worlds climate will
tend to become, as ice is one of the
chief causes of the storms that bring
rain"
Doctor Brooks declared that if the
ocean rose fifty feet, many large
and important parts of England and
America also, for that matter, would
cease to exist.
All central London and most of
the suburbs along the Thames val
ley would be submerged. Essex and
Suffolk would disappear and a new
coastline would have to be define
ated running several miles inland
from its present point. he said
Not much would be left of York
shire, and Lancashire, too, would
become a mere shadow of Its for
mer self. OF England's southern
Counties only Cornwall and Devon
would survive.

ington, D. c., when Bohemia was
abandoned by the Jesuits as a col
lege site. An attempt, however,
was made to revive it under other
auspices in 1895 when the Sulpi-
clan Fathers from st. Mary's Sem
mary in Baltimore took charge Of
Bohemia. The Rev. Ambrose Ma
rechal, subsequently the third Bis
hop Of Baltimore, was the regular
pastor in attendance, with occa-
sional Interruptions, during the
whole time of the Sulpician occu-
patton. Here they hoped to found
preparatory seminary for eccles-
1astical students, but after four
years, abandoned the project and
returned to Baltimore. The Jes-
uist again became identified with
Bohemia until 1890 when the Rev.
John A. DAILY was appointed BY
the Right Rev. John j. Monaghan
d. d., becoming, therefore, the
first secular priest to become pas
tor Of this historic church. Faith
er DAILY remained there a little
over two years, and was succeeded
by the Rev. Charles p. McGold-
rick, who was in charge two and
a half years. On January 11,19O4
the Rev. Charles a. Crowley be-
came pastor and in the course Of
time transferred his residence to
which IS now the par
ish church Of the people of Bo-
hemia Mission. In April, 1929,
Father Crowley was made pastor
of st. Peters Church of New Cas-
tie, and the Rev. John H. Walsh,
the present pastor, now takes care
of Middletown with Old Bohemia
included.

Speech by Hypnotism

Cincinnati, Ohio.-Resorting to
hypnotlsm, DIR. Meyer Zeligs and
DR.. Nell Welborn of the General
hospital here, restored her speech to
f1fteen-year-old girl.
When the girl, deprived of speech
by a mysterious paralysis of her
vocal cords, failed to respond to
orthodox treatments, the doctor re-
sorted to formula of passes and
words associated with the occult
arts.
She was placed on an operating
table and commanded to sleep"
You have no feeling in your skin
at this point" one of the physi-
clans told her. He pressed a pin
point to the spot indicated. There
was no response.
"Speak!' was the next command.
The girls mouth opened and she

The building which will house

FORESTRY AID
TO MILLIONS
Work Given Out By Federal
Government Lightens Re-
lief Load
100000 MEN EMPLOYED

Washington. = President Roose,
Velt's reforestation program already
has ightened the relief load OF
MANY cities and has directly bene-
fitted more than million persons,
according to Robert Fechner, di-
rector of emergency conservation
work. During the two months the
civilian conservation corps has been
in operation 25O,OOO men have been
enrolled for forest work and $1,000
others have obtained supervisory
positions, Mr.. Fechner said.
Cash AlIotments.
Reports reaching his office, he
said, showed that the men enrolled
in the civilian conservation corps
and the Indian service had ar
ranged for the payment Of cash al
lotments to more than 100000 fam
lies, aggregating close TO a mil
lion persons in all In many in
stances families receiving these al-
lotments will be made entirely self
supporting.
In thousands of other instances
the arrival of the allowance money
will so bolster family budgets that
local relief organizations will be
able to substantially reduce the
monthly relief funds paid to these
families" he said.
Summarizing the present status
of the Presidents program for the
placing of no less than 275,OOO men
in forest camps by the first of the
month, Mr.. Fechner said.
Thousands Enrolled.
THE War and Labor departments
have virtually completed the major
task of selecting, enrolling, process
ing and equipping the young mems
conservation corps. Up to date
236,754 of the group have been
enrolled and 101 900 of them have
pitched their camps in the nations
acres of timbered lands.
The Indian service has enrolled
more than 1000 of the 14,4OO In
dians who have been given work
on Indian reserva-
tions, by the reforestation legisla-
tion. A total of 1900 veterans have
been enrolled. The enrolment of
the veterans quota of 25,OOO for the
whole country will be completed
soon.
This means that we will have
more than 100000 men at work in
the forests by the end of the
month. Not less than 2F5,OO0 men
will be at work building trails and
telephone lines, fighting the dis
eases which attack forests and in
general working to improve the ma
tons forest resources before long"
