 to Westward

The Rev Bernard R. Hubbard, S.. J., The Glacier Priest, accom- panied by Roderick (Red Chis- holm, J. Levin and George Peter son who were with him in last years explorations, arrived in Ju- neau early yesterday morning on the P. E. Harris cannsry boat Dell wood.

 Dogs Interest Crowd
 Furnishing a center of interest for large group of both children and adults, were three of Father Huobard's sled dog s-''Mag elk, ' ''Katnai." and Wolf" which were tied on the hospital grounds while their energentic master was attend ing to numerous details in con- neation with his trip. The three dogs had been with Father Hub bard and exhibited on his lecture tours throughout the Nation and at the conclusion of each lecture a popularity" contest was conduct ed, with "Mageik" winning the most favor, although yesterdays visitors were about equally divided in their admiration for Mageik' and "Katmai."
 Fearing that the pet cat at the hospital might fall a victim to "Katmai," who killed "Manette", the hospital cat, when he was here last year, Sister Aimee kept the present pet safely under lock and key to prevent another tragedy while the dogs were in the vicin- i5y yesterday

LONE PIONEER
FAMILY STICKS

ALAMOSA, Colo, Jan. 5. U.H -
Forty years ago this month, 800
residents of Holland arrived in Ala
mosa to make their homes in the
San Luis valley.
The Hollanders, consisting Of 30
families, were brought to the
United States through the efforts
Of the Holland American Land
company and the Empire Canal
company. They planned to estab-
lish a colony on the farm lands Of
the valley.
The plan, however, was doomed.
After making the trip across the
Atlantic on a special boat, they
took special trains to their new
home and were housed in two large
buildings. which had been erected
to shelter the coloniStS until they
were able to build their own homes.
Soon after the party moved into
their temporary homes, scarlet fe-
yer broke out among the children
and several died.
Lack of water. poor land, ana the
hard winter, coupled with the cpl
demic of fever, discouraged the
Hollanders, and six week from the
time they arrived in Alamosa only
one family remained.
The other 49 families scattered
to various parts of the nation, sew
eral to eastern Colorado. The
Adolph Heersink family decided to
"stick it out" and thus earned the
title of the first ditch" family in
the valley.
The Heersinks still make their
home in the Waverly district, near
Alamosa.
Another family, that of Andrew
Hof, which came to the San Luis
valley with the coloniSts, moved tC
Iowa, but later returned to the val
ley and settled in Waverly, where
it still lives.

almost the very day he takes office
The letter pointed out that Mr.

had a period of settling down" be-
fore taking upon his shoulders the
task of settling a national crisis.

CRIME. STUDY
REPORT FILED

SACRAMENTO Cal, Jan >. UP,
-Receding crime and crime coses
in California IS good business"
and is possible through lne appii-
cation Of tested administrative me-
thods. the California crime PROB
lem advisory committee reported
today
The report. embracing 2 two
year study made at the request of
the 1881 legislature, contained nu-
merouS recommendations for chan
ges in handling the states crime
problem.
THE inability of law enforce
ment agencies to deal with the
problem in a satisfactory manner
is due not only to the difficulties
inherent in the work. but also 10
the fact that government has not
applied here the best known ad-
ministrative methods of treating
crime ana criminals which have
been tested elsewhere and found
valuable. the report said.
The need Of more cooperation
between gov oyslnmental agencies is
Of paramount Importance, the COM

man. do you want to hear that
story? Do you want to know the
facts about the state building in
San Francisco? Do you want the
truth about the distribution of in
surance by the state?'
Resolution Unfair
Senator Roy E. Fellom of San
Francisco declared the "implica-
ton of corruption in Inman's res
olution was unfair, but told the
senate that Governor Rolph well
comes any investigation of his ad-
ministration."
Senator Bradford s. Crittenden
Stockton, insisted the resolution
was not in proper form because ii
didn't specify what was to be in
vestigated.
"It starts nowhere and it gets
nowhere" he said. "Are we go
ing to ask for another investiga-
tion that will produce nothing but
a lot of hot air?"
The argument came to a sudden
halt when Senator Inman agreed
to postpone a final vote until to-
day and Senator Bush withdrew
his motion to refer.
Asked to comment on the pro-
posal Governor Rolph said:
II only hope Inman will permit
an investigation of his official acts
with the same degree of frankness
and openess that consent to
mine"
SACRAMENTO, Jan. 5. U.P-
Determined to carry out Governor
Rolph's economy program to bal
ance the states budget without
increasing taxes, administration
forces today had in preparation
four bills for this purpose.
Two of the measures were SIM
liar to the $12,000,000 school cost
reduction program proposed by
Senator Arthur H. Breed, Oakland
Constitutional authorization tt
borrow s10,0O0,000 from the perpet-
ual school land fund to tide the
state over its period of emergency
Will also be sought.
The fourth proposal was an ur-
gency bill transferring S8,779, ,00t
from gasoline taxes to the general
fund, reimbursing it for money
spent in paying interest and re-
demption of old highway bonds for
the last two years.
Marking the first legislative ac-
ton on the measure in 1898, the
California legislature late yesterday
approved the Norris lame duck
amendment to the federal consti-
tuition.
The resolution. previously passed
unanimously by the assembly, was
approved by the senate without a
dissenting vote and sent to Cover
nor Rolph for his signature.

HOME DEPARTMENT WOMEN OUTLINE
FINE PROGRAM FOR COMING YEAR

Farm home department women
will have an intensely interesting
and beneficial program for next
year as the result of the outline
made at yesterdays organization
training meeting held at the court
house.
Miss Fleda Smith, assistant state
leader of home demonstration
agents, presided at the meeting
which was attended by representa-
tiveS of home departments through
out the valley.
In her preliminary remarks Miss
Smith asked the women to select
those topics which they would like
to see in a home department pro-
gram, bearing in mind that they
should select those things most
needed in their respective homes
and communities and which would
be of real benefit, forgetting their
own likes and diSlikeS.
Under clothing the women decid-
ed that they would like to take up
the making of house dresses which
is to include the adaptation of pat
terms to the season S styles, the
study of line and design and new
finishes that are being shown for
that particular season.
Clothing for adoleScent boys and
girls is another project as well as
