In Australls a preserve, or sanc- tuary, has been established for the benefit of human beings, the remnants of o native race that .is still in the Stone age, of clvillzation. “hese modern , men -of, .the Stone age wander over a vast region in the arid interior, of Australia. About thelr number little 1s known, but the total is estimated at 2,000 or there- sbouts, . Many .of them. never have seen a white man. A large portion of this region is Fractically unexplored because of Jater. searcity and the @anger of attack by the .natives.

A number of other prelim- inary flights are scheduled to give the big ship a try out. The crew to make the transcontinental flight will number six but the personnel has not definitely been selected.

That such a trib- unal could achieve splendid results has been well indicated by the fine work of the recent conference in ‘Washington respecting. . the Tacna- Arica controversy between Chile and Peru known to Latin Americans.as | “The Problem of the ‘Pacific.” ‘You said Secretary Hughes to the conferees over whom he presided, “that. no difference in Latm America l‘ incapable of solu- | tion.” Whatever the differences that remain between the Latin Amer- ican Republics, or between any one of them and the United States, it seems probable that an All-Ameri- can tribunal could settle them amic- ably. In establishing this as a fair assumption the Harding.administra- tion has done more than has heen done during the entire life of“the league of nations in itg mishandling of European problems.

FAIR GAINS FINE SUPPORT lcantinuou From Page 1) expected that by the last . of this weck, every community will be rep- resented in the contest., Clearbrook and Gonvick will undoubtedly go to- gether to support ong, candidate and it is still likely that Bagley may de- cide to support this same candidate. In that way Clearwater county will have an exceptional. opportunity to “cop.-off - the..prize.” Leonard _and Pinewood have agreed to support Miss. Marie Rider of -Shevlin; .and..it is expected that Shevlin itself .and also Solway: will be-given her: as nddmoml territory. This arrgngement, wxll give eagh of these communities. a far . better chance to win.. Although the. Clear- water county candidate has not yet been decided wupon, it is quite prob- able that these three towns will unite on a Gonvick girl and give her their entire support. Several other nearby. towns ne yet to be visited. However, there is every indication that between 20 and 25 candidates will be in this contest including those from Bemidji. TIE FOR FIRST HONORS IN.
