This mornings San Diego Union
carries the following special dis
patch from Jacumba, written by
John Hettich. presumably the I'm
ion correspondent at that point,
which discusses a matter of inter
est to residents of Imperial county
and one which has been frequent
ly commented on by valley resi-
dents familiar with incidents SIM
liar to that related and which
from visible evidence on the high
way clearly happened in Imperial
county:
Residents of Jacumba and ad-
iacent communities are indignant
ever what they describe as the IN
human practice" Of San Diego ana
Imperial county hospitals and au-
thoritcs in passing tie buck on
which of the two districts Is re-
sponsible for the care Of emergency
cases that arise along highway 30;
Controversy over this lOng-stand-
ing problem was revived Sunday
after an accident Saturday IN
which Ralph Dyllstra, l8 and Paui
Busby, 16, We're injured, Dykstra
seriously. For several hours the
lads lay on improvised pallets on
the floor of Jacumba Justices
office. sweltering in the heat Of
sultrv dav. with the question OF
decentralization undetermined.
Dykstra the son of a Lancaster,
IN. Y. editor, and Busby son of an
Alturas. Okla. Baptist minister,
were thrown from the careening
senli-trailer Of a runaway truck as
it sped down Mountain Springs
grade, shedding tons of salt in
sacks. which partly blocked the
highway for a half mile or moro
and caused two other accidents re-
sulting in minor injuries to occu-
pants Of passing cars. The lads
told officers here they had been
visiting the exposition and were
hitch-niking home.
The aC/dent occurred across the
Imperial county line, which is
crossed by the highway five times
between Jacumba and Mountain
Springs-a distance OF nine miles
This crossing and recrcSsing makes
it difficult to determine whether
accident locations are in San Diego
or Imperial county.
Dykstra and Busby were picked
up by a passing motorist and
brought to Jacumba, where DR. c..
J. WitkoWski dressed their injur-
les Finding that Dykstra was SER
iously hurt and that both boys
would require hospital care, ne tel
ephoned to San Diego for an am
hulance. The ambulance, privately
owned and operated under contract
with the county made the run to
Jacumba in approximately an hour
and a half, but arrived more than
TWO hours after the accident.
Driver BalkS
However, the driver baked when
he learned that Dykstra and Busby
had been injured in Imperial coun-
ty. After a discussion that contin-
ued for 40 minutes. during which
the Imperial county hospital was
called and refused to accept the
patients because they were tran
sients. and for the further reason
that they were at that time in San
Diego county, the ambulance op-
orators decided to take them to
San Diego on the chance that they

speaking on behalf of the Soviet
government, today disclaimed con-

remarks of Samuel Darcy, San

Darcy, speaking before the seventh
world congress of the Communist
Internationale in Moscow, predicted
vast lOngshoremen'S strike cen
tering around the troubled Pacific
coast maritime labor situation.
Mr. Darcy is an American citi-
zen, and our government has no
connection with his remarks besides
listening to him. the Soviet am
bassador said. we have never had
any dealing with the Communist
party on the west coast.
Whatever Alr. Darcy said is his

yesterday By Samuel Darcy, one OF

The main force Of the strike, he
indicated. would be felt on the

Darcy charged the shipowners
with planning to attempt to elimi-
nate revolutionary leadership" Of
seamens unions after expiration Of
the agreement. After that, ne said,
the owners will not give up an
inch Of their gains.
Therefore, he continued, there
is indication Of a fierce Struggle

Printing Blocks Made
in China Centuries Ago

The oldest printing blocks in ex-
istence are on exhibition in a collec-
ton of bamboo, root and wood cary-
ings from China at Chicago's Field
Museum of Natural History.
The blocks are engraved with
floral designs and must have been
made before the year HOS A. d.
They were found in the ancient city
of Chu-lu, In the southern part OF
the province of Chill. This city, ex-
cavated by Psychologists in recent
years, was submerged by a flood in
HOS.
The Chinese are the inventors of
block-printing, and, in fact, of all
the essentials for printing-paper,
writing brush, ink and ink-pallet or
inkstone. They invented and per-
fected these entirely from their own
resources, unaided by any other ma
ton. Paper was invented and manu-
featured in China as early as los

mentS.
Stating that whether or not this
country still owes less to other nations
. than they owe to 1t appears to depend
on the true value of defaulted war
debts, Mr.. Peek recommends these i'm
mediate steps:
81. The Inauguration Of a detailed
study of our direct investments abroad
and foreigners direct investments in
the United States, to supplement the
studies now in progress of capital
movements.
'2. A review of all national policies
based in whole or in part upon our in
ternational creditor status"
The proposal seems to lead toward
high tariffs and a policy of allocating
our foreign trade among other nations,
as is done by many of the European
countries.
Figures compiled by Mr.. Peek indi-
cate that the United States is a net
international creditor by S16,S97 ,000,-
600, but this includes $10304, 100000,
principal amount of war debts owed
by foreign governments, and also for
eign bonds held by private investors
in the United States invoiced at their
face value, and a pre-depression esti-
mate of the value of American branch
factories abroad and other direct in
vestments in foreign countries. Mr..
Peek strongly infers that a re-estima-
ton of these assets" will result in
such a scaling down that this country
will no longer be creditor nation and
need not act as SUCH
BY his recommendation for a re-
view of all our national policies based
in whole or in part on our international
credit status, Mr.. Peek unquestionably
means that there will be no further
validity to the argument that as cred
itor nation we must open our markets
TO imported goods, and that imports
need be only sufficient to balance cur
rent exports, taking into consideration
such invisible items of international
trade as shipping services and tourist
expenditures.

time in which to review present codes
to carry out the conditions laid down
in the first two exceptions to the reso-

Both President Roosevelt and Don
aid Richberg, head of the NRA, had
NRA bill which would set up stricter
dictatorship over business and indus
try. The senate finance committee,
however, would not consent to this and
instead passed the resolution, which
was drawn up by Senator Clark of
Missouri and approved by Chairman
Pat Harrison. Twelve senators first
called at the White House and the
President seemed willing to accept the
continuing resolution until Mr.. Rich
berg came in and protested urgently
whereupon Mr.. Roosevelt turned it
down. The committee then took the
action noted by vote of 16 to 3. de-
flying both the President and Rich
berg.

There were seven state professions
the first day. The first was that of the
speaker of the house of commons, Capt.
Edward A. Fitzgerald, with five ancient
gilded coaches: the second, that of
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald,
with six coaches in which rode the do

two-coach procession of Lord High
Chancellor Sankey, and one of the lord
mayor of London, Sir Stephen Killik.
The fifth procession was that of the
duke of York, from Buckingham pal

escort of the magnificently appareled
royal horse guards. He had with him,
in addition to the duchess and their
children. Princesses Elizabeth and
Margaret Rose, the duke and duchess

throne, came sixth. He had with him
captains escort of the Life Guards
and two carriages, in the nrSt or Wnlcn
he rode with Queen Maud of Norway
and his brother, the duke of Glouces-
ter, like him, bachelor.
Finally, in the most gorgeous parade
of all, came George and Mary, and as
their ornate coach, drawn by the IA
nous grays passed, the voices of all
LOYAL Britishers rose In roar of
"God bless the king and queen" The
rulers, accompanied by all the other
notables, went to st. Paul's cathedral
to give public thanks to God.

The Cherokee Alphabet

The Cherokee alphabet was invented
by Sequoya between 1900 and 1921.
It was the product of his contact with
white civilization. 1t was accepted by
the Cherokee nation and thousands
were soon able to read material pre-
nared in their own language.
