i Promise of new legislation to
replace the NRA, decision of lead
ing industries to adhere to NRA

day in the wake of the supreme
court decision outlawing the
Roosevelt administrations new

General Hugh s. Johnson, for
mer NRA chief, in a radio adj
dress last night predicted new
legislation regulating industry
better than the illegal NRA and
which, would be accepted by the
supreme court. Precise definition
of fair trade practices to be con-
trolled by an administrative body
under the presidents direction
and n congressional declaration
and definition of interstate COM
meree would make such legisla-
ton acceptable to, the court,
Johnson believes. He warned that
if new legislation failed to con-
form with the courts decision
"thc whole high promise of the
new deal is knocked into a cooked
hat"

WOULD MAKE
DIVORCE LAW
MORE LIBERAL

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 25. U.D -
Liberalization of California divorce
laws and the elimination of So
called "blackmail' suits was sought
today in, two bills introduced by
AsSemblyman Paul A. Richie, San
Diego Democrat.
One bill would provide as addi-
tional grounds FOR divorce, the
mere fact that both married parties
desire a divorce" Such a mutual
agreement, the bill declared, Shall
constitute sufficient grounds for
granting the divorce and the de
cree so granted shall be perman-
ent and final Immediately on the
granting thereof"
The granting of such decree
would be merely matter of form,
;as far as the court was concerned,
the bill provided.
The second measure proposed the
abolition of alienation of affection"
and breach of promise" as causes
for court action
This bill" Richie explained,
would outlaw such suits and do
away with lot of court cases that
represent nothing more than legal
lied blackmail."

NEW ICE AGE:
DUE ON EARTH.

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 25 UP) -
There will be every reason to but
ton up your overcoat if you live
10000 years TO see Dr.. Max Walde-
mar Kurnikers predictions come
true.
"a sudden ice deluge will de-
scend from the north" Kurniker
told an audience. New York will
be crushed under a mighty gla-
cier. Los Angeles will be an Arctic
waste All civilization will be
snuffed out by a mountain of ice
encircling the globe"
Kurniker hastened 20 explain
that it probably won't happen for
a few thousand years, and by that
time maybe science can do some
thing about it. He believes, how
ever, that we are now entering a
new ice age, and that the moon is
coming closer to the
earth, foreshadowing a catastro-
phe for earthlings a few million
years hence.

Roy H. Womack was speaker of

the Kiwanis club held at the Bar
bara Worth hotel.
The speaker, introduced by j. G..
Scott. program chairman for the
day. took for his topic the neces-
sity today for individualism and
also for the cooperation which this
country demands from the individ-
ualS.
Womack told KiWanis that it is
necessary for every American to
take stock of the things his coun-
try has to offer him, over and above
those offered by any other country
in the world, and of the opportun-
tiles he has, keeping himself sold on
the American flag and those ideals
for which it stands.
Even this countrys politics, he
declared, bad as they are and in
need of improvement, are better
than any of which he knows else
where. Womack stated that If the
people themselves accepted their re-
Sponsibility, the so-called depres-
sion would be short lived, this
country demanding this cooperation
on the part of it's citizens more than
ever before, having at the same time
more to offer them for their con-
certed effort than they could OBJ
tain elsewhere.

- An instrument which will aid
Dr. william Beebe, famous under

tances and gauging visibility
underneath the water, has been
manufactured here.
The instrument was made in the
optical laboratories of Bausch and
Lomb company and is similar to
field glasses, but has mill scale
which is corrected for the index of
refraction of water.
Manufacture of the instrument
resulted from a lecture given here
by the famous explorer, during

ordinary glasses to judge the dis

that his conclusions were not al
ways accurate.
The new "undersea" glasses
