COLD is THREAT
TO HOMELESS IN
TORNADO ZONES

U.N.S.) A spring cold snap to.
day threatened to heighten the
hardships suffered by hundreds
of refugees who lost their homes
in Wednesdays tornadoes that
ripped through five States, killing
S6 persons.
Hundreds of others we're in
jured, many so seriously their lives
were still in danger.
RELIEF PROBLEM
But the throng of homeless
presented an even greater prob
lem to relief agencies and officials
starting the loEg task of rehablll-
tation. Virtually all in some sec
tions lost not only their homes but
their belongings as well.
Caught in the sudden onslaught
of the twisters, they were thankful
to escape with their lives. On all
sides today that was the general
attitude of the victims who
shrugged their shoulders and con-
templated paying the $1,500,000
bill of reconstruction with hardly
O grumble.
ALL KEPT BUSY
They were all in the same boat
and everyone was much too busy
to listen to any complaints of their
neighbor.
The deaths by States stood at
10 for Illinois; Kansas, 10; Ar
kansas, 8. and Missouri. 5.

Hunter Rides
Deer to Death

SACRAMENTO, Cal. 0.N.S)
When John H. Mays of Santa
Rosa shot and wounded a buck
deer it turned and charged him.
Mays stood his ground, and in
the best movie style, grabbed the
enraged animal by the antlers
and swung up on the deer's back.
The deer galloped through the
brush with Mays keeping his
perch until an antler broke, and
he fell to the ground. He found
the deer a short distance away.

Spratt, Who Ate No Fat,
Won Himself Gall Stones

Digestion of fat makes the gall
bladder function. Jacks fatless
diet gave the bladder very little
exercise. The bile tended to col

tails, and observation-disclosures. Mrs.
Spratt's mistake was developing
too many bulges around her mid
region. The bile collected, and
presto!-gallstones again.

Former Alaskan / Finds Interior
 Moving Forward
A. P. Erickson, Darlington Jones, Praises Indi-
 vidual Operators

Interior Alaska has poured con-
 crete to it's mining existence founda- tions as more and more independ- ent mining operators have begun
 work, in the opinion of A. P. 1. Erickson, Secretary Treasurer of
 the Carrington-Jones Company. Erickson, who has. charge of
 mining supplies for that concern
 yesterday arrived in Juneau by PA plane after a month of flying
 through the Interior that included
 an airplane accident and visits to
 nearly every mining area in the
 North. The accident occurred at Tolo- vana, below Nenana on the ToIo- avana Flats when w. E. Dunkle,
 prominent mining operator, and Erickson were flying into the Kan tishna country from Fair.banks The two men were caught up in the heavy gale that swept South
 western and Interior Alaska recent ly. doing wide. damage Facing the wind, flying speed was practically nil, and going with the wind, "get
 ting nowhere in too much of a
 hurry" Running low of gas, Dunkle
 put his Stinson wheel plane down on a river bar-successfully, except
 for the fact that just as the plane slowed it's landing run, the, wheels dropped into soft sand and mud and the ship nosed over, :. { Tt wasn't really an. accident, Erickson said. We just had to send for another engine, because we got sand in the motor" Erickson, in speaking of mining, spoke highly of the Kantishna country, recently opened, by 90 miles of road from the Government railway. He said Dunkle, in addi- tion to large scale lode property in Broad Pass, is developing a shal- low placer on Caribou Creek in | the Kantishna.
 T suppose it will be, ,dragline opera tion," Erickson said "It's an odd setup, though. The ground Is only a few feet deep, well thawed, and the paystreak is sometimes several hundred feet wide. I imag- inc that after awhile, Dunkle will be able to put a hydraulic plant to work instead"
 Other creeks in the area are showing more promise since the of the new road, Brick son said. He mentioned Glacier Creek, where Marr and Meliling are working ground, Eureka, where Joe Dalton is working, and Stam- pede, where w. P. Kirk and Sons are mining molybdenum for the National Lead Company.
 On Quigley Hill, Cliff Hawkins and his partner are putting up a 50-ton mill this fall to work the long known, but heretofore remote rich quartz veins of that section, Erickson said.
 Its the independent operator that is, making Alaska Inside all the way to the Bering coast, look pretty good" Erickson said. There isn't town in the Interior that can justly be called company town any more, That is good sign, I think"
 This is Ericksons first trip to Alaska in, ten years, although prior to moving to Seattle in 1928, he had been in Alaska for Is years with various mining companies, the. Chichagof and the He was, also with the Alaska Steamship Company.
 He will sail south tonight on, the steamer Columbia.

man of our country, who tolls in field

he and his fellows produce, who pays

raises our children and who is the real
backbone of this nation.
1t will adhere religiously to the be-

LOOKING FORWARD
By FRANKLIN MAILMAN
Publicity Director, Republican National Committee

The title of this column is no acct
dent. 1t was deliberately chosen as in
dicative of the best Republican
thought. Republicans today distinctly
are looking forward, not in the mar
row sense to the day-now not far
distant-when their party will be re-
stored nationally, but in the larger
sense of looking forward to that day
when the achievements which are
the natural, logical fruits of the Am
erican system can be realized. Those
fruits are an increased standard of
living for all of US under ordered lib
erty.
This column will be conducted in
the spirit of that title and that
thought. 1t will undertake an objec-
tive analysis of what has happened in
Washington during the last five years,
hewing always to the facts. It's view
point will rest on a deep-seated belief
in the practically and workability
of the American system of free enter
prise and private initiative, held in
bounds by necessary and reasonable
regulation.
It's measuring stick will be-not the
opportunism of football game-but
the measure in which the Roosevelt
Administration has improved the fu-
ture security as well as the present
condition of the American people as
a whole. 1t shall be more concerned
about Mr.. Roosevelt's failures than
his faults.
1t will not quarrel with all of the
New Deal-but will diligently seek
to expose those parts which either
seek to pervert the traditional Amer
lean system or have had the effect of
destroying opportunities for greater
employment of labor and a better
standard of living. 1t will recognize
that President Roosevelt frequently
has asked the right question-but i'll
many cases has gievn the wrong an
swer.
1t will undertake to demonstrate
that the standard of living in this Ma
ton cannot be raised by working less,
producing less and expanding the gov
eminent payroll. In that direction lies
only decreased national wealth, in
creased prices, higher taxes and fewer
of the good and essential things Of
life.
1t will seek to show that the under
privileged will not be helped merely
by pulling down those higher up the

quarrel between his nephews and

them.
In 1850 jeremiah L. Townshend
twho had married Tabitha Hoye) and
others, brought the noted case in
Equity, No. $40, against George Smith
of A, executor of John Hoye's estate.
This case dragged through the Mary
land courts until 1878, when it was
finally decided in favor of the COM
plainants, that is to say, the female
side of the house, to the effect that
the executor or administrator of an
estate cannot legally buy of the heirs
any part of the estate of which he is
administrator or executor.
Seems simple, but it took the law
yers and judges twenty-three years to
settle the question!
