SNGTUARIES ADD TO GANE SUPPLY This, Despi Increass in Number d i New York, Feb. 24. M—Penetra- Yon of the family automeobile, bris tling with papa’s shotgun and baby's Popgun, inte formely ‘inaccessible regiona is blamed by John B. Burn- ham, prosident of the American Game Protective association, for the extensive. gain.in wild game slaughter in this country, But the raids are being offset, he says, by efforts of organizations for the pratection - -of wild life, co- operating with the federal and state governments. “A few years 2go,” - he recalls, “there were certain parts of the country in the mountain regions that a human being could not penetrate. In these placea wild animals had perfect sanctuary from the hunter. But today- there {5 no place that the automobile cannot | £0, and as a result the game has been caught in its own haunts. “Agriculture and industry also have taken away natural breeding and lving quarters of the animals. Agriculture has taken the most fer- tlle ground for its purposes, na- turally the ground on which game | had found its food. The animals have been driven to the poorer ground as a result. “For thesc reasona, through state and federal action, we muat create so-called artificial sanctuaries — | game and bird prescrves all over the country.” Buch preserves have increased in great numbers during the last few vears, Mr. Burnham eaid, and as a | vesult there is more game today | in some of the older states than there was 60 to 70 vears sgo. “Restocking in \ern\or' Daa been 30 well administered,” " he said, “that there are more deer to the square mile in the Green mountain area than in any other place in the world." Despite the pessimism of eertain naturalists, he asays, etatiglics prove that no specie of game has been exterminated in the last 75 years, and with tho modern system of enforeing closed seasons and intelligent restocking, it is unlikely that any species found in this coun- try will ever disappear. FINGERPRINTS ARE KEPT IN RECORDS 1,300,000 Are on File in Wash- ington, D. C. Washington, Feb, 24. UP—With a file of approximately 1,300,000 fin- gerprinta of persons arrested for felonies in the United Btates and Canada, the identification division | of the departzgent of justice is ree | ceiving betweeh 600 and 700 new prints a day. .J. E. Hoover, director of the bu- reau of investigatiop, revealed be- fore the house appiopriation com- mittee that the division finds ap- proximately a .third of the 800 printa received daily belong to per- sons with previous criminal rec- | ords. “As indicative of that work,” Hoover said, “let me refer to the | situation in St. Louls following the | tornado there. The chief of police proposed to appeint a number of temporary policgmen. He sent ua the fingerprints” of 545 he was go- Ing to appoint. Of those ten had previous criminal records. Two had been convicted and served sen- tenges for petit larceny, two for grand larceny, one for deser- tion, one for seduction and one for burglary. One was wanted for {n- vestigation. “The chief of police of 8t. Louls hag advised me that ip addition to those ten found by our bureau he found 33 more, making 21 persons vho were to be appointed there | who nad criminal records, thus proving the wvalue of the fipger- print system.” German Doctor Oflers I Hints for Farsighted | | Munich, Feb. 24 UP—As a simple | and effective expedient for aNeviat- ing without glasses the farsighted- ness which comes with age, the oph- thalmologist Dr. Kurt L.

In the farsightedneas of advanoced lite, the lense of the eye records not one but twoe images: & hazy upper one and a clear and well defined lower one. On looking through a slit, however, the upper hazy plo- ture is eliminated and only the clear- ly defined lower rvecorded. ‘The only requirement is an abun. dance of light by which to sce, as the hand held over the eye excludes part of the luminous rays. DEMOCRATS STIL WATCH WEATHER Feel That They May Need Um-| brellas in Texas Houston, Tex., Feb. 24.—M— ‘Weather records for the last 39 years indicate that delegates to the democratic national convention in June will need umbrellas and light clothing. If the convention, which openl June 28, lasts five days, the literal- ly wet question may require atten. tion on at least two days. During the 39-year period, rain fell 14 times on June 26; 17 times on June 27; 13 times on June 28; 11 times on June 29, and ten times on June 30. The average rainfall for the five days was )ght, however, being only about one-tenth of an inch for the 39 years. ‘The average maximum tempera- ture for the five days is 92.5 de- minimum temperature is 73.5 de- grees, reducing to 83 degrees the mean temperature for the average 24 hours late in June. Reliet from the heat is promised by the prevalence of winds from the Gulf of Mexico, less than 50 miles away. The sca breezes have no ob- structions in their sweep to Houston, for the country between here and the gulf is flat. Artificial relief from heat will be provided in the construction of the new convention hall. The bullding will have a heat-resisting roof, and scores of electric fans will circu- late the air in the auditorium. TAG DAYS CURBED | Manchester, Englend, Feb. 24.

P—A new. methed of navigation, which its inventor declares is s0 simple it can be mastered by a grammar school boy with an hour's instruce tion has been devised by Comman- der P. V., H. Weems of the United Btates Navy. The equivalent involves merely a bubble sextant for getting stav sights, a watch sct for Greenwich sidereal or. star time, a pair of dividers and a sheet or two of Paper. The cheets are ruled off in straight lines with curves super- imposed. The curves are the inain- springs of the system and were worked out by Weema from study of nautical almanacs and star de- clinations. Any two fixed stars may be used | Commander Weems | in navigating, says. 80 far he has worked out charts for navigating by Polaria and Capella and by Polaris and Are- turus. He is now preparing charts for other stars. Commander Weems has tried out his method both on the ground and in the air and declared it worked in“both instances. Getting his posi- tion or “fix,” as navigators know it, consumcd 67 seconds of unhur- ried work, he states, First he sights i through his sestant angle registered on the scale. This is marked down on the chart and Capella then is sighted and the angle marked together with the | time of the obscrvation.
