LOS ANGELES, Mar. 5. UPl i

Onions and garlic, mot humblr Of
salden vegetables, may prove pow
erful curatives for tuberculo. is ana
leprosy, according to Dr. c. 9
Lindeeren. head of The department
Of bacter.ologv at the University
Of Southern California.
The same strange volatile prop

Virile bacilli that can be killed
only after three hours OF boil'na
die after only an hours exposure
to garlic fumes Nearly 600 tests
have been made by The bacteriolo-
gist. and the results always ar
the same, he said.
Fatty germs such as those eaus-
ing tuberculosis and leprosy are
most easily affected because the
onion odor pcrneates the f3t, Just
as it will ruin butter placed near

Cultures Of bacillus subtllis, es-
oherischia coli, Serratia marcesan5,
mycobacterium smegmatis and my
cobacterium leprae have been
started in petri-dishes, an deXpos-
ed for limited time periods to the
vapors Of one gram Of ground gar
lie. On plates treated a few min
utes the growth Of the bacteria IS
definitely limited, and on those
treated an hour the germs are
killed.
The very fatty characteristics Of
tuberculosis and leprosy germs that
IN the past has made them so dlt-
ficult to control make them paru-
zularly su-ccpub!e to the onion
odor.
No group c physicians has yet

Through arrangements made by
County Agricultural Commissioner
B. A. Harriean, the state depart
ment of agriculture has installed an
attractive citrus industry exhibit at
the Imperial County Mid-Winter
Fair opening March Z.
The exhibit, brought to Imperial
county directly from the National
Orange Show, where it was award
ed a gold cup in the educational
class. illustrates the extent Of the
California citrus industry an d
shows the value of the citrus crop
both from the state and the coun-

An impressive statement contain

Finding Trip
L was nGt long before the West
mCrland chamber of commerce and
some Of the civic leaders Of that
community, after 4 few contacts,
became similarly interested, and
on an historic Sunday, group OF
Westmorland folk, assisted by some
looking citizens Of Impe-
rial. El Centro, BraTley and other
valley communities, had a road
finding fest and tramped over the
area between Kane Springs and
the state highway and Sandy
Beach. and decided on the most
practical route for such a road.
The aid of the county supervl-
sors. the road districts, the SERA
and the WPA were enlisted, and
the result was that within a few
months. a passable road was built,
Graded cut about 100 feet wide
and surfaced with clay which
when Incorporated with the native
sand makes an excellent surface.
The road was finished just be-
fore February 9th, or at least made
readily passable. On that day was
held Imperial Valleys First Mid
Winter Outboard Regatta, which
made history because it was the
first great. sanctioned, race held
for fast outboard motor boats in
the west in five years. 1t attract
ed not only about half the motor
boats actually owned in Callfor-

several motor boat clubs south OF

regatta of the past half decade.
One world record was broken; oth-
ers were threatened that day,
It was a great show for 1mpe-
rial Valley folk and the day was
even greater for the racers. The
charm of Imperial Valleys mid
winter climate is traditional, but
the weather man outdid himself on
Regatta Day. It happened to be
the period of the greatest billiards
which the eastern states had
known in three-quarters of cen
tury. Even the California coast
was experiencing almost freezing
weather with dampness and fog
prevailing. When the motor boat
owners and crews came> to Impe-
rial Valley the night before, they
encountered sunshine. ON the day
of the races, the weather report
showed the temperature to be Is
degrees. At four o'clock in the al
ternoon. it was still 68 degrees at

Nome Registration Low

Registration for the com- ing City Election, as report ed bv City Clerk M. J. Walsh today showed 147 citizens had signed the reg istration poll book a very low number considering the many who reside in Nome who are entitled to vote.
 It appears to us that more interest could be shown in the coming election for city councilmen officers and mayor by the citizens of Nome.
 The poll books will be closed, March 20 and it is suggested that Nomeites, entitled to vote, proceed to register, and thereby swell this low number to a creditable figure, a move which should receive SUD- port from every citizen, in- terested in the progress of his city.

BALLATNE NOT POSTED

John E. Ballaine's charg- es that Alaska's resources have been 'throttled by J. P. Morgan, the Hartman interests and the Union Pacific railway are not borne. out by facts. MT. Ballaine has been away from Alaska so long that he has failed to keep up with the progress of the Territory.
 Alaska has lots of good coal but the high cost of transportation makes it pro hibitive, especially as no bunkers for loading ships

exist at Seward, making handling tolls too high. Coal can be brought in cheaper, under the present conditions from British Col umbia or Seattle, than it can be brought over the railway and shipped to Val dez.
 We in Alaska have al ways understood that the tracks to Chickaloon were torn up because it was found that coal in commer- cial quantities did not ex- ist, despite the report by committees who paid more attention to parties than to the coal deposits. The veins were found to be faulted badly, and test borings re- vealed shallow veins.
 All this should have been determined before the spur, buildings, and mach inery were installed, but it was not.
 If the interests mention ed above have any hold ings in Alaska, we do not know of them. Alaska has been retarded by bureaus and autocratic policies, as well as by high transporta- tion charges over the rail- way.
 The colonization scheme depends solely upon the set tiers themselves. Alaskans have made a good living in the valley and it's vicinity, and the coloniSts can do the
