Gulf of Carpentaria IL
One of Loneliest Seas
The moody Gulf Of Carpentaria,
on AHstraliRss northern scoastline,
due south of New Guinea, is, one of
the loneliest seas. Usually the gulf
is calm, the heat tempered by cool
ing winds. But in blazing summers
the water heaves in great swells,
forecasting a cyclone, and then old
sailors EeGau thatsthis gull has been
known throughout the seven seas as
f'the graveyard of ships"
There are strange features about
this vast gulf, states Sydney, Aus
.trala, correspondent in the New
York Times. It has only one tide
each "a hours. And at night its wa
iters glow more wildly than any 9TH
ler waters. Nowhere else. it is said,
are those minute marine organisms
fknown as plapkton,, which give this
!phosphcrescent light, so plentiful
as they are in the Gulf Of ,Carpen-
.taria.
At night, in fine weather, the wa
tiers show all colors. Every wave,
every ripple, is marked with lines
lof lght-EnilS-white, blue and pink,
the gleamings of a tiny creature mo
bigger than a pins head. The sea
iis full of moving points of light.
Scattered about the gulf are many
ISLANDS, romantic, little known. One

my God shall supply all your

is the assurance Of Gods Word.
Countless Christians have proved it
to be true that they may trust God
to supply every need-temporal or
spiritual.
The lesson for today first presents
the disciples as. they had come back
from their preaching expedition and
presented to the Lord Jesus a re-
port of their stewardship in minis
tering the bread of life to the spir-
itually needy. He invites them to
a place apart from the busy walks
of daily life for a time Of COM
munion and rest. The multitude
would not be denied, however, and
follow our Lord te,the desert place.
Having taught them, Jesus has OPP
portunity to instruct His disciples
in the important ministry Of supply
ing for those in need the bread for
their bodies. /

Washington, July 8 (AP)-Frank
Hines, veterans administrator, an
nounced today President Roosevelt
had approved a recommendation of
the Federal Board of disqualification
that a new Veterans Administration
hospital for North Carolina be located
at Fayetteville.
Hines said the board, in reaching is
conclusion, took into account the fact
that Fort Bragg was near the chosen
city.
In event of an increased demand
for hospital facilities at the fort, vet
Grams hospital at Fayetteville would
be of great value, Hines said.
More than 30 cities in North Caro-
lima were visited by a veterans ad-
ministration sub committee for the To-
cation of the new 300-bed hospital to
cost about $1,5OO,OOO.
Hines said a subcommittee, after
gtxing full consideration to the vete-
rams population to the area to be serv-
ed, transportation facilities, available
ity of essential utilities, and accessl-
bility of buying centers, had decided
Fayetteville would be the best loca-

Raleigh, July (AP)-State Audi
tor George Ross Pou reported to
Governor Hoey today apparently for
the first time IN a decade or more
complete auditS had been made in

Governor Hoey issued statement
commencing Auditor Pou, saying that
it could be. seen that the work Is a
monumental task, and this is the
first time in many years that an au-
dit of this kind has been made"
Pou said the reorganization of his
department, as authorized by the 1887
legislature, made the result possible,
and pointed out that insofar as the
records of this office disclose, this Is
the first time in a decade or more
that proper audits of all State insti-
tutions, departments and commissions
have been current"
II wish to commend Auditor Pou
and his department upon the COM
pletion of this splendid work." said
Hoey, land 1 feel that the legislature
acted wisely in providing for this
audit to be made by this State agency
specially charged with this RESPONSE
bility, and I regard this as much
more preferable to having the particu-
lar agencies audit their own accounts
The result of this audit is most graft
flying, and I am sure will be re-assur-

Sensitive business barometers nave
risen vigorously. They forecast that
the turn has been made. Business
should now continue to pickup very
fapidly, at least until election day.
Every one should be cheerful and
happy over the events of the last few
days. Had the Recession of 1888 con-
tiaued at the rate it was travelling
in recent months, the only result
could have been economic chaos in
tho United States.
Business today is nearly five PEI
cent higher than a month ago. It
reached % per cent below normal on
dip, compared with minus 40 per cent
at the e1,treme pit of the old depres
sion. Today, it has recovered to 25
per cent under normal and is rising
weekly While we have had several
false starts in this recession, l am
convinced that this one is the real
turning point. The other temporary
iok-ups were not preceded or accom-
anied by the traditional signs of an
important change in the business
trend. This current turn has come
with most familiar barometers fore
casting better times ahead. Here ara
some of the most important of these
Indicators:
BarOmeters Confirm Turn.
/. BOND PRICES have Eeen slow
Nv edging forward in recent weeks.
Such a rise ordinarily indicates that
investment cash is piling up and the
temptation to accept handsome yields
on good bonds cannot be overcome
any longer. Hence, bond investing in
creases, prices rise slowly, yields fall,
and buying power spills over into
stock market bargains. Moreover, vol
ume of new security financing has
been moving higher for several
months.
2. STOCK PRICES are up about 30
per cent since their extreme lows sew
eral months ago on March 81. The
market additionally turns upward or
downward two to three months before

Washington, July S.-(AP)- Cotton
nlanters have less than 27,0OO,0OO
acres under cultivation this summer
the smallest total since 1900.
The Federal Crop Reporting Board
reported July 1 acreage today at 26,-
100000. This figure, 78 percent of the
comparable one year ago, indicated
cotton farmers as a whole are COM
PLYING with the production restriction
program. They planted 100000
acres in 1887.
The Agriculture Department, con-
fronted by a surplus of a years sup
ply of cotton, had allotted growers 81
527. 500 acres for planting under the
new crop control law.
Among the causes for the sharp
reduction" the board said, ARE the
agricultural adjustment program, re-
latively low prices received for last
years crop, and difficulties in secur-
ing stands because of unfavorable
weather"
Growers last year produced the re-
cord crop of 1895, 900 bales. The
board made no forecast of this years
production. Should the yield equal the
1882 average, however, the produc-
ton would be about 100000 bales.
Yields last year averaged considerably
higher than the ten-year average.

states includes:

to be, or has just been, made. The
volume signal was given on June
when, with one exception, trading hit
the lowest level in 20 years.
g. WHOLESALE PRICES as a
whole are not sensitive indicators.
Certain raw materials, such as hides.
steel scrap, wool, silk, lead, zinc, and
export copper, however, are extreme
ly quick to mirror the change in the
basic business trend. Recently, quo
tations on nearly all of these COM
modities have jumped spectacularly
All the other false upturns since the
recession set in over a year ago have
taken place while sensitive commodity
prices were slipping to lower levels.
4. INTEREST RATES we're perhaps
the most famous of all revival indi-
Gators in the old days. But now rates
on bankers acceptances, commercial
paper, and the like, are frozen at ridi-
culously low levels. Rates charged to
customers, however, still have a sem
blance of a free market and are,
therefore, an indicator of business
conditions. These rates for different
sections of the country all touched
their lows in February and March and
since then have Stiffened.

forecaster of business. They usually

other industrial indexes. Since early
June, operations have improved mod

steel operations, have jumped more
than 20 per cent.
Z. COTTON CLOTH SALES are the
favorite "caller of the turn" for many
observers. Cotton cloth is representa-
tive of the inventory situation. When
