SEATTLE REPORTS RECEIVING NOME BROADCAST TO ADMIRAL BYRD

According to information re- ceived today from Robert Flagler the radio technician for the Col un1bia Broadoasting Company, he states that the CBS advised him from Seattle that the Nome pro- gram direct to Admiral Byrd in Antarctica was received in Seattle splendidly. The wire to MT. Flag Ter also congratulated everyone for their successful participation in the program.
 Mir. Flagier also wished to thank everyone in Nome who assisted in the preparation and conducting of the program.
 Further evidence that Nome is on : the map. It is not Recessar! to argue with people about how vide ly advertised Nome is in the Unit ed States and around the world. Radio, which ise the fastest means of communication seems to have placed Nome on the map once again as ideally located for radio telephone communication.
 Nome is already well recognized as being on the Great Circle air plane route fom the North Ameri- can continent to the Orient.
 Now radio has established the fact that first class radio tele- phone communication between Nome and Seattle, and between Nome and Hawaii is complete success. Two way communication throughout was experienced in the broadcast made yesterday, by teh Columbia Broadcasting Com pany, from Nome.

Favors Small Farms

An interesting fact is that records reveal as re-
ported by Roger w. Babson. that the average small
farms value showed a fourteen per cent increase from
1870 10 1880 whereas the average farm or one hun
dred acres and over dropped in value thirty per cent.
Mr.. Babson explained that the small farm is USUALLY
run for a livelihood whereas the larger farms are
business adventures in agriculture and much more
susceptible to losses because of overhead costs.
the same financial writer is optimistic about
farm real estate. He says that the worst is over and
mat an increase in value may be expected. He points
out that deflation was slower in regard to these values

With Characteristic ~frankness and nonchalance.
President Roosevelt has written a book. utterly disre-
garding the line which says. "Oh that mine enemy
would write a book"
The presidents book is entitled On Our Way
It is being widely discussed. Notable are its frank
answers to the Bourbon charges that the Roosevelt
administration is revolutionary, that it leads to facism:
that it is Conmunistie. The president thus disposes
of these DOGGY men.
Some people have sought 10 describe the policy
(the Administrators policy as revolutionary Per
haps it is. It is revolutionary. however. only in the
sense that the measures adopted and the purposes
that they seek differ from those that were used before.
IF it is a revolution il is a peaceful one achieved
without violence.
Some people have called it Communism; it is
not that either. It is not a driving RECOMMENDATION found
ed upon the plan Of a perpetuating directorate which
subordinates the making Of laws and the processes
of the courts to the orders Of the executive"
The poise of the nations leader should be inspir-
ing to those who lack that quality. There seems to be
a good many such in all political groups just now.
Strangely enough it does not appear that anybody
Is calling the administration conservative, which it is
In truth and in fact, when its policy and its actions
are measured by the distracted thinking of the times.
President Roosevelt is quite an example Of the
maxim that it is a great thing to be able to keep your
head when others all about you are losing theirs.

Brain Trust Critics

Some heavy criticism Is being loosed at the adj
ministration brain trust so called. Especially in adj

Time and again the brain trust has shown the
practical politicians up for exactly what they are in
the great ma ority of cases, ambitious. self-seeking
men, Ill equipped to discharge the important duties
they assume.
Whenever this happens the brain trust is called
names. Yet in time we may come to like men with
brains better than shallow and obvious demagogues
filled with sound and fury, exhorting US by our an
clent %prejudices and all too often getting away with it.
The term brain trust itself aptly indicates the
American flair for skepticism. Not all Of US are from
Missouri, but we are the greatest show me-" people
on earth.
The fact Is, as intelligence and candor every
where will admit, that in the last year the socalled
brain trust has done a good deal for us. 1t is to be
regretted there was not a brain trust as frankly adj
mitted IN the panic days of 1929 and the preceding

THE ROMANCE OF ouINiNE

For the countless ages malaria
had been taking Its toll OF mankind
Neither the nor the treatment
of this mysterious disease was un.
derstood.
The people Of Europe as well as
in Africa were great sufferers from
its ravages. Charm and w~ftchcrart
were frequently depended upon TO
effect a cure, but In vain.
Down in South America the In.
dams had found bitter water in
certain localities which they drank
and discovered that it cured them Of
the chills and fever. They observed
that this water became m%edicated
from the bark Of a tree which had
fallen in 1t and soaked for some time.
This led them to strip the bark from
the tree, and extract the medicinal
principal by a similar process to
that OF natures.
When the Spanish, bent on con
quest, first went to South America,
they suffered from malaria and he
kind. Indians cured them with their
bitter water. The medicine was
named for the Countess C%hinchon,
wife of the Viceroy OF Peru. because
she was cured OF malaria by using
this Indian connection. From them
she obtained some of the bark, which
she took to Spain.
Quinine is an extract that is taken
from this bark. These trees original
ly grew On the Andes and were not
found outside OF South America. 1t
was the practice Of the natives to
cut down the entire tree in order to
secure the bark for medicine. But
the white man peeled 1t off In stxaps
leaving the tree to renew the growth
which it does. The bark after re-
moval Is dried, made into bales and
exported.
The white men tried for many
ear to obtain some OF the plants OF
seeds In order to try growing them
IN other countries, but the Indians
found that the revenue which they
derived from the bark was too val
liable to risk sharing it with other
nations. Many white men bought
seeds and plants from the South
American Indians, which they be
lieved chincona. but always
discovered that they had been de
ceived.
Finally an Englishman induced a
native to let him have s~o4na-aeed oil
the genuine %chincona, these he car.
ried to Java and British India. They
grew and flourished, especially in
Java, where great plantations OF the
trees now grow. The poor Indian who
sold the seeds that have been OF un-
told benefit to mankind, was put to
death by his tribe rs a traitor.
Seeds and plants were carried
later to Jamaica. Japan, Ceylon. and
other countries, while the industry
has steadily declined in South Amer
lea.
There are several varities OF the
chincona trees and other medicinal !
alkaloids are extracted from the bark
besides quinine, but the latter is OF
more service to mankind than any |
OF the rest.
