Nature’s Barn Swallow. BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. ONG ago the farmers realized what, 8 valuable assistant the barn swallow was, so they invented some wonderful stories to keep boys from destroying the nests or birds. Gradually the stories took hold of some of the people until it became & crime to kill a barn swallow. This has been one means of protecting a friend, and surely the beautiful bird has everything to rec- ommend it to every one. PFew birds are such graceful fiyers. They race through the air with long sweeping curves. You catch a glimpse e T o of their steel-blue backs, their beauti- ful, reddish-brown breasts, and as they fly so low you can even see the white spots on the inner webs of the tail feathers. This swallow’s tail is said to be the model for men’s evening coats. are even called “swallow-tails.” females and their young have shorter tails, and this is one way you can rlfly identify them.

Children | Ranging well over North America | during the Spring and Summer, and | going to South America for their | Winters, you can readily see how well | known this bird is. | In April, when he arrives, he greets |you with a most enchanting Spring |song. It is a clear, sweet song, that sounds like “weet-tweet, twet-weet,” with variations. The impression you always get is the singer’s supreme hap- piness on being with you once again. He inspects his favorite haunts. The stream where he loves to bathe, the pond where insect hunting is espe- cially fine and the open door of the barn where he may find rafters handy for swinging his nest in a corner, perhaps under a bridge where the little stream passes. So intent is he upon refreshing his memory he pays scant attention to you, and that is your good luck. The barn swallow is the most beau- tiful of the family, and our poets have long sung his virtues. There are two broods each year. The first one arrives about the last of May. The cradle is well built. It is the first adobe. The material used is mud, tious and mixes her mud bricks with for the inner walls and mattress. You may see the rim of the nursery, {ringed with feathers. There are from four to six white eggs, well freckled with browns, reddish-browns and lilac, The youngsters are a moisy lot and even make themselves heard as they pick their way from their shell in- closure.

The only MISSIN TREASIRE DIEENGSRENEWED Unearthing of Old Ruins Revives San Juan Capis- " trano Fables. By the Associated Press. SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif., May 4.—Tales of buried treasure at the 160-year-old mission of San Juan Capistrano were revived today by the unearthing of ancient ruins. For more than a century treasure hunters have dug about the mission in unsuccessful quest of fabled gold. Chance discovery this week by a workman’s pick of an old stone side- walk and conduit, hidden for years ‘| by ruins, rekindled hopes of treasure seekers. Two applied to Father A. J. Hutchinson for permission to renew the hunt. They were denied. SOCIETY. SUN TO BE ENLISTED IN BATTLE ON CANCER Laboratory and Experiment Sta- tion, Including 93-Foot Tower, to Be Erected in Palo Alto. By the Associated Press. PALO ALTO, Calif., May 4.—A new attempt to conquer cancer and other disease bacteria by use of the sun's rays is to be made in a research ven- ture by John Kalsey, radiologist and X-ray technician for the British gov- ernment during the World War. Financed by a group of business men, Kalsey has begun construction of & laboratory and experiment station which will include & 93-foot tower in North Palo Alto. Kalsey told of successful experiments in Los Angeles with sun’s rays so used that the huge Olympic swimming pool was pronounced entirely free of nox- fous bacteria. Adaptation of the same principles, he hopes, may bring valu- able results in his new researches in the disease field. Cancer and tubercu- losis will be studied particularly “The only gold in these hills comes from crops,” said the mission pastor. “The padres were poor and had noth- ing of value to bury.” . Father Hutchinson said the still persistent belief in buried treasure dates back to the raids of Bouchard, an Argentinian pirate, who sailed the California coast robbing ranches and ‘missions. “One story,” the pastor explained, “relates wealthy ranchers when ad- vised of an impending raid by the insurgent hurried to the mission and buried their silver and gold and other valuables. After the raid they were supposed to have returned and claimed their possessions, but legend says that they were unable to find much of their treasure and that it still is in the ground here. “Other stories credited the padres with having obtained rich gold and silver from mines in the nearby hills, which was buried in small amounts at a time. Another equally erro- neous story is that every ranchero had to give the church one-tenth of his cattle, which was transformed by | sales or trades into gold.” During his 15 years as pastor of the mission, Father Hutchinson said he has been interviewed by countless treasure hunters whose ancestors were supposed to have disclosed the | secret hiding place. 'MISS TAGGART ASKS VOTE FOR DISTRICT Nineteenth Amendment Failed for Women in Capital, She Maintains. Miss Etta Taggart, a member of the District of Columbia bar and second vice president of the Pederation of | Citizens’ Associations Thursdar night | broadcast an appeal to the disenfran- chized women of Washington to strive | for a vote for the District residents. “Although the women of the Dis- trict have the same economic, legal and social status as the women of the | States,” Miss Taggart said, “they have | not had the same political advantages, through their inability to vote and a consequent lack of national represen- tation.” Miss Taggart said the most note- | PARKINg bill in which I have partici- | worthy privilege gained by women through the long years of struggle for legal recognition came to them under the passage of the nineteenth amend- ment to the Constitution, which en- franchized all qualified women, with the exception of those living in the District. “It is to be hoped,” the speaker said, “that all women will be aroused by the injustice which has been done to the women of our Capital City. and that each one will use every means of influencing the members of Con- gress to take an interest in and act favorably upon the question of fran- chise for the District. “The constitutional amendment urged by the citizens empowers Congress to | correct this inequity without disturb- | form of municipal government. All that happens will be that the District | will become a small fractional part of that Congress, and politically an integral part of the Nation which that | Congress represents.” | AR e B e 'LOW INTEREST FARM \ MORTGAGES APPROVED Frazier Bill Providing for Rate of 114 Per Cent Indorsed by Committee.

ECGLES ANSWERS BANK BILL CRITICS Denies Measure Permits Diversion of Credit by Reserve Board. By the Associated Press. Differing with certain members of the House Banking Committee, Gov. Eccles of the Federal Reserve Board takes the position that the banking bill now before Congress was not designed to allow the board to divert credit from industries which are producing surpluses. In a letter to Rudolf S. Hecht, president of the American Bankers’ Association, Eccles declared that op- posite view held by some members of the House committee had nothing to support them. -The Governor said a section of the bank bill on this point had been inserted in the legis- | lation at his own suggestion. | The Eccles letter quoted from an | Associated Press dispatch published April 21, in which it was said that some committeemen were claiming “Presidential support for a new move GALLUP ASSAULT . BAFFLES OFFICIALS Communist Editor and Law- yer Unable to Give Clues to Assailants. By the Associated Press. GALLUP, N. Mex, May 4—State and county officers followed meager clues over the deserts of Western New Mexico today, seeking a dozen or more men alleged to have ab- ducted and beaten Robert Minor, editor of a New York Communist publication, and David Levinson, Philadelphia lawyer for the Interna- tional Labor Defense. ’ The two victims, members of a defense committee formed to aid a group of men charged with mass murder as an outgrowth of the jobless riot of last month, were in a hospital under the protection of State police. Independent of the police move, the Gallup Defense Committee also pro- vided a guard for the two men. Both were bloody and scarcely able to walk when found by an Indian out in the desert yesterday morning, but physicians said their injuries were not serious. The Defense Committee, expressing dissatisfaction with ex- amination of the two by hospital phy- sicians, proceeded with plans to have other doctors examine them. Believe Many Involved. Although he said he saw only about a dozen men when he and Levinson were seized from their parked auto- mobile in the town plaza Thursdey night, Minor insisted that many others must have been involved in the pur- ported abduction. He said he had screamed loud enough to have been heard for a distance of several blocks when he was pulled from the car end loaded into one of the masked men's autos. Clues furnished C. R. McIntosh. assistant State's attorney, who came from Santa Fe to assume charge of investigation, and Sherif D. W Roberts, by the two bruised victims of the strange attack were not definite enough to arouse hopes of the officers for an early solution of the case. * McIntosh said the State would “leave no stone unturned” to solve the case and that “no matter where th | toward a ‘planned economy’ in which money and credit could be deflected from industries already producing | | surpluses and used instead to develop fields where demand exceeds domestic | supply.” | 1 Section of Bill Quoted. i ‘The section of the bill in question | 88ys: | “It shall be the duty of the Federa} | Reserve Board to exercise such pow- ers as it possesses in such manner | | a8 to promote conditions conducive to | business stability, and to mitigate by | | its influence unstabilizing fluctuations in the general level of production, trade, prices and employment, so far ! |as may be possible within the scope { of monetary action and credit admin- | istration.” Eccles wrote Hecht that the idea that this language would permit diver- | sion of credit from surplus-producing | industries “has not at any time ever | entered into any discussion of the i | pated, and it would never have oc- curred to me that any part of the bill might be susceptible of such an interpretation.” Suggested Disputed Section. | Saying that the section quoted had }been incorporated in the banking bill | at his suggestion, Eccles continued: | “That an objective of this kind is | one toward which monetary policy | must be directed by any responsible | authority would seem to be self-evi- {dent. I think. that no one would | question the obligation of the Federal | Reserve System to make every effort to | contribute as much as it possibly can | to the attainment and maintenance | | of satisfactory and stable conditions | | in the field of business enterprise and | employment. * * * “But neither this statement of ob- | bill. would authorize either the Federal | Reserve Board or the Federal Reserve | banks to determine the amount of | credit that member banks might ex- | tend to any branch of industrial, com- | imerchl or agricultural activity.” 'CONVERSION BONDS’ . ISSUE PRICE RAISED 1001, Rate Is Ordered Effective Midnight May 7 to Spur Tardy Holders. By the Associated Press. A seldom-used privilege was resorted to by the Treasury last night in an- nouncing it would increase the issue price of its 20-25-year 27 per cent conversion bonds to 100}z after mid- night May 7. This security is a refunding issue, created to exchange, par for par, for the remaining First Liberty Loan bonds, which were called several weeks ago for redemption June 15. Already of the original $1,933,000,000 called more than $1,000,000,000 of these bonds have been turned in, leav- ing $909,690.850 outstanding. The called bonds bear interest coupons of 3%, 4 and 4% per cent, the higher rates representing converted issues. The unofficial explanation of the Increase of the price was that favor- able market conditions warranted such a move. It was indicated it was de- signed to spur tardy holders. The amount of the issue which is not turned in by June 15 for conver- sion will be paid off at that time in cash. guilt lies, high or low, prosecution will result in any arrests we make.” CATHOLICS TO MARK ZOOTH ANNIVERSARY Birth of Archbishop Carroll, First of Rank in U.
