LITTLE ROCK, Ark, April T.
After studying the bill prepared by
the Public Works Administration,
Gov. j. Marion Futrell has called a
special session Of the Legislature for
Monday to enact measure to enable
the State to obtain a P. w. A. loan
and grant of Sl,769,O00 to complete
the new State Hospital near Benton.
HIS action was surprise in official
circles, but came after the State Con-
structlon Commission had studied the
contract forms submitted by P. w. A.
authorities at Washington and recon-
mended that the session be called
Immediately to avoid delay, confusion
and complicated methods of finance
ing.
In statement after he had called
the special session, Gov. Futrell said:
Inc Government is offering to fur
nlsh the money on conditions required
by 1t, substantial portion of which is
a Tree gift to the State. The buildings
already constructed cannot be made
ready for use without this money.

Government officials have stipulated
that 100000 of the loan and grant
must be spent this year to aid in the
Governments drive to reduce unem-
ployment. This requirement was said
to be the controlling factor in the
decision to call special session, since
1t Is imperative that the work be
launched as soon as possible. Lengthy
negotiations and probable delays in
carrying out the alternative plan of
financing would have endangered the
whole program, it was said.
The Public Works Administration
disburse loans and grants through
the Federal Reserve Bank as construc-
ton work progresses, which, coupled
with lack of current appropriation
act for disbursement of the money
from the State treasury. made it i'm
practicable to grant the loan until
remedial legislation is enacted.
In his proclamation calling the ses-
sion, Gov. Futren said:
THE State Hospital for Nervous
Diseases at Little Rock is overcrowded
to the extent Of 1000 patients, endan-
gering their lives and mental and
physical health, and the housing of
such numbers in the present build
mgs Is a menace to safety.
THE Arkansas Construction Com
mission has acquired for the hospital
a 3,000-acre farm near Benton and
has constructed sewer, water and
lighting systems, and 13 modern fire
proof buildings, which buildings are
completed except as to the heating
system, and cannot be used. -
'The State is unable to complete
these unfinished buildings and is un-
able to add thereto, and this situa-
ton leaves an investment of over
81 100000 without present value to
the State, and leaves the horrible
condition of affairs at the present hos
pital, which is unfair and unjust to
the unfortunates of the State con-
fined there, averaging over 20 to each
couRty".

PASADENA, Calf, April Z LP.-
A huge 15-foot, four-bladed wooden
propeller is being installed in the
wind tunnel of the Daniel Guggen-

Designers construct from their plans
for a new type of aircraft small-scale
models, true in the minuteSt detail,

These are placed in the test cham

manufacturer may know, through ex-
periments in the tunnel, to a reason
able degree of exactness how his ship
will perform in the air. If there are
errors in design, they will soon show
up in the tunnel. After corrections
are made, the tests continue.
Automobile engineers, too, have
made use of the tunnel in measuring
wind resistance and in developing
streamlining on new types Of motor
cars.
Construction of the propeller, de-

rector of the laboratory and famous

Mrs. Tibbets, Pioneer for

RIVERSIDE, Calf, April I'm
pageantry and tableaux, Riverside will
pay homage May to Mrs. Eliza Tib-
bets. who 81 years ago planted two
small navel orange trees here and
thereby is credited with starting the
California citrus industry.
The industry now is the States sec
ond largest, ranking behind petroleum.
Oranges had been grown in Cali
fornia before Mrs. Tibbets planted her
trees. They were brought to the State
by the Franciscan fathers as early as
1869. But Mrs. Tibbets' seedless navel
variety was the first to make pioneer
growers see the commercial posi-
bllitles of the citrus industry.
In 1871 Bahia, Brazil, missionary
sent II small trees of a seedless orange
to the United States Department Of
Agriculture. The fate of 10 of these is
lost to history, but the other two were
sent to Mrs. Tibbets, pioneer Riverside
settler, by friend, William Saunders,
connected with the department.
Mrs. Tibbets carefully nursed and
tended the plants. She used her dish
water to irrigate them.
Three years later, apparently for
gotten even by the Washington de-
partment, the trees bore their first
luscious fruit-a seedless, juicy Or
ange. 1t had very little inner mem
brane and was of quality far su-
perior of any variety then being grown.
From these wonder trees nursery
men eagerly sought buds. Soon there
was extensive planting throughout the

acreage is 98,881, of which 94,175 are

The late President Theodore Roose-
welt assisted in transplanting one of
the original trees in 1903 from the
Tfbbets home to the Mission Inn
courtyard here after the death of
Mrs. Tibbets and her husband. This
tree died since and has been replaced
by one of its direct descendants.
The other original plant was moved
in 1902 to small, specially provided
city park near the Tibbets homestead
and it still produces normal crops of
fruit.

which really began when he was 9
years old-he smilingly blamed acorns
for his blindness.

Clarence clambered into a tree for a
supply of acorns, slipped, and limb
silver punctured an eyelid.
The resulting infection spread to
both eyes and resulted in nearly
complete blindness. AS he describes
it, he is in the dusk zone of blind
ness.
"Other persons are shadows to
me-" he explains. In the proper
sort of light I can distinguish fairly
well, without hearing voices, whether
the figure is that Of a man or

ing at the moon. When I went into
the house to sit down I sat on box
or what thought was box-and
landed on the floor.
Il discovered that the moonlight,
coming through the window, made a
rectangular reflection on the floor
which resembled the corner of box.

School for the Blind and learned the

He did brilliant work for two years.
His sisters read assignments to him.
He mastered the typewriter, on which

DISCOVERIES MADE
Michigan Doctor Describes
Body'S Reaction After
Infection.

(Copyright 1a34 New York Tribune Inc
ANN ARBOR, Mich, April Last
Christmas, at the Boston meeting of
the American Association for the
Advancement of Science, DR.. Reuben
L. Kahn, of the University of Michi-
gan, on the 900 award of that
scientific society for his paper on a
new theory Of immunology telling how
the human body builds up immunity
to combat disease producing organ
iSmS.
Last week. before a meeting of
immunologists. pathologistS and bac-
teriologists in Toronto, DR.. Kahn pre-
sented new results of his epoch
making experiments. For one thing
he reported that when a vaccine is
injected into an aimal whose body is
not immune to disease the body
begins to fortify itself against the
germs within two days.
When the body gets an infection
from bacteria it does not show the
symptoms of the disease Immediately.
1t is only after an incubation period"
which varies, but may last week, that
the real sickness comes. DR.. Kahn's
new findings offer hopeful picture
by showing that protective changes
are taking place in the body tissues
during the earliest stages of the in
cubation period. This pre-sickness
stage after known infection has
hitherto been, by comparison, a blank
spot in medical research. From his
discoveries it is now known that the
body is not standing idly by. allow
ing the organisms to take root and
grow What is actually happening,
according to DR.. Kahn, Is that the
incubation period is one of great
activity on the part of body tissues
to build up protective immunity.
How well and how quickly the body
starts fighting the organisms while
they are trying to gain a foothold
depends on several things. DR.. Kahn
reports. Age is one, a mature animal
possessing this capacity for protection
to a greater degree than young and
growing one. This alone may explain
why children are more susceptible to
common infectious diseases.
Another factor is the amount OF the
injected dose of vaccine. With a
small dose the automatic chemical
laboratory of the body sets about
quickly to produce the immunity
charges; for heavy dose there seems
to be an overwhelming of the body
mechanism and it becomes "balky"
and slows down in its immunity
production.

BY FORD
TO SHOW SOY BEAN
SFARM SOLUTION
Manufacturer Sees Money
for Farmers in New Phase
of Industry.
BY PICHARD HUBBART,

DETROIT, April z (P).-A patch OF
growing soy beans, barn, such as
almost any farmer owns and special
machinery for turning the beans into
commercial products. Henry Ford has
announced, will be part of the Ford
Motor co. exhibit at the Chicago
World Fair this Summer, demonstrat-
ing what Ford believes offers a solu-
ton of the farm problem.
I'VE are going to try to show how
any farmer who is minded may begin
on scale within his means, the par
tial industrialization Of his farm and
the manufacture of products directly
for industrial market" the automobile
manufacturer explained.
What We call the farm problem
must be solved by each farmer acting
for himself. Just as soon as the in
olvldual farmer can make money, the
farm problem will vanish for good,
and SO will most of our other eco
nomic problems"
The barn, to be built adjacent to
the main Ford exposition now under
construction at the World Fair, will
house processing machinery with
which Ford had experimental for sew
eral years.
The processing plant will be Of
the simplest Sort" Ford said. MANY
farmers could build one like it out of
odds and ends. 1t will be steam
operated and have a capacity of one
third of a ton of soy beans every
eight hours. One man could run it.
A single farmer or group Of farm
ers might own it,
Asserting that zone trouble with
farming now is that it is too much
concentrated in the Summer months"
Ford said that one advantage of soy
beans is that they may be harvested
and proceSsed during the Winter
months. Extraction of soy bean oil is
accomplished by the distillation meth
cd, which. he said, is 100. per cent
effective.
The oil-free residue is an excel
lent food for man" he continued.
'or the farmer may feed it to his
live stock with fine results. Or he
may put it into another simple ma
chine and manufacture plastics, an
industry that is just getting under
way"
machine for molding the residue
will be in operation at Chicago, Ford
said, so that farmers may see how
simple the whole process is and how
readily it could be adapted for farm
USE
Such automobile parts as horn but
tons and gearshift lever knobs are
now pressed out Of soy beans, Ford
said, while Ford cars are finished in
an enamel in which soy bean oil is
used exclusively. About half a bushel
of soy beans goes into the making of
every Ford car, the manufacturer dis
closed
Some day he said, chairs. desks,
doors and all sorts Of things now
made of wood will be produced from
the same or similar materials. It's
only matter Of getting down the
costs"
Explaining he is not interested per.
sonally in manufacturing any of the
machinery he has developed, Ford
said any one who wants to manufac.
ture it may do so without restriction.
SO far as the Ford interests are con-
cerned.

NJ AEON. Ga, April (P.-A
M prehistoric building that
VI served ancient Indians as a
1 ' L combination temple, state
house, mems club house and
hotel has been unearthed here by
archeologists of the Smithsonian In
Stitution.
Only the foundation remains, but
there is enough to show it was round
and built of red clay on a frame of
wood. 1t probably was used by the
Creek Indians, who occupied this
section
The most remarkable features of
the building, says DR.. John r. Swan
ton, Smithsonian expert on Indians.
consist of a raised dais and rows of
seats built around the inside walls
of the building facing the fire in the
center. Nothing like them ever has
been found before in prehistoric In
dian villages.
The seats evidently occupied by men
Of the tribe taking part in councils
or other gatherings. are modelled Of
clay, with each seat separated from
the next by low clay ridge. In the
front of each seat is a shallow
hollow, the use of which is unknown.
The dais, believed to have been oc-
cupied by tribal chiefs or dignitaries,
is wide enough to accommodate three
persons and is raised above the level
of the ordinary seats. 1t also is of
clay opposite the entrance door of
the temple The same hollow is
placed in front of each Of the three
seats on the dais.
The front of the dais Is modelled
in shape intended to represent the
head of an eagle.
1t is believed the building served
the Indians as place of worship. a
council house, a gathering place for
the men of the tribe and accommoda-
tions for guests.
The building evidently was the
center of large community, for
many Indian mounds and the remains
of large numbers of old dwellings are
scattered all through this section. The
locality evidently was densely settled.
In some places the scientists found
the ground literally covered with
flint chips and fragments of broken
pottery.
Digging in the center of one mound
revealed strange Indian burial Gus
tom. The bones of a man, evidently
Of some importance, were found
there. The flesh had been removed
from the skeleton. the bones arranged
roughly in anatomical order, and
wrapped tightly in skins. They then
were laid in a log tomb with the
head to the West. The mound was
heaped over the tomb.
Two high mounds also have been
