SUSPECT HUMAN CARRIERS
St. Louis. With more than four
score dead of "sleeping sickness,
scientists centered research on two
theories of how the disease spreads
human carriers and insects. Experts
are strongly inclined to the human
carrier theory, and suspect the prob
able portal of infection is the nose
and throat. But they are not willing
to overlook the possibility of the
spread of the epidemic by insects or
any other means even remotely like

Dr. W. T. Harrison, United States

U. S. to Aid
States in Police
Activities
Attorney General Cumming3 in De
nial Federal Force Is Be
ing Planned.
Grand Rapids, Mich., Aug. 31.
The attitude of the federal admin
istration toward the fight against
crime was summarized late today by
Homer S. 'cummings, attorney gen
eral, in a statement that "the plans of
the department of justice are along
iines of increased and more effective
co-operation between federal, state
and local authorities on a basis of
mutual helpfulness."
Cummings' statement clarified the
government's position, which yester
daywa? described by Pat Malloy, as
sistant attorney general in an ad
dress before the annual convention
of strongly centralized federal con
ctnhnlnrv throueh the granting ol
- - -
federal commissions to state ana
county police officals.
Started Controversy.
Malloy's address precipitated a
cotnroversy and brought remarks
from some members of the associa
tion to the effect that such measures
were unconstitutional constituted a
threat to the states' rights.
In hi3 statement, Attorney Gen
eral Cummings said:
"Evidently there has been some
misunderstanding.. I do not advocate
any plan which contemplates giving
federal commissions to state, county
and local police officers or members
of their prosecuting forces, with cen
tralized control at Washington.
'The plans of the department of
Justice are along the lines of increas
ed and more effective co-operation
between the federal, state and local
authorities upon a basis of mutual
helpfulness. .
Addresses Convention.
"Of course," it quite goes without
saying that any plan .having the
sanction of the department of Justice
will be clearly constitutional and in
accord with sound .principles."
In a formal address before the bar
association tonight, the attorney gen
eral ,gave his pledge' that "emerg
ency legislation is recognized a3 such
by' the government, and must bo and
will be exercised within the letter and
the spirit of the organic law." .
"Congress,", he declared, "has
neither abdicated nor shirked its
rights or its duties. It has function
ed patriotically and efficiently to
meet a national crisis. What is
really happening is not an alteration
in the established form of texture of
government, but a chance in the
spirit and application of govern
ment." .
Equilibrium Remains.
He assured his fellow lawyers that
there is no occasion to indulge In
"artificial fears", of the ultimate out
come of . the extraordinary power
which has been placed in the hands
of President Roosevelt.
"There has not been the slightest
fundamental departure from the form
of our government of the establish
ed order," he said. "Our Jural sys
tem remains intact. The federal
equilibrium has not been disturbed.
The life, letter and integrity of the
constitution have not been impair
ed."
Earlier, in an informal statement,
Cummings had pointed out that the
plan outlined before the association
yesteray by Malloy calling for the
federalization of state and county
police forces- was "Malloy's own
speech."
Cummings added that he had not
read the address in advance of its
presentation. World-Herald.
DEER ESCAPES ITS PRISON
Watkins Glen, N. Y. Watkins
Glen State park i3 one of Aerica'a na
tural wonders and nothing more, for
its famous captive deer, marooned for
eleven days . on a rocky ledge on a
ciin wall, left almost as suddenly
as it came. Under the cautious per
suasion of two park workmen, the
seven point buck hesitatingly made
its way down the precipitous bank,
picked its way daintly thru the tor
rent at its bottom and Jumped to a
ledge that led to the top of the bank.
As It ambledt o the top of the
bank and trotted past a tourist camp
toward a nearby woods, park officials
heaved a sigh of relief. In the sigh
it might well be expected was a trace
of thankfulness for the 350,000 visi
tors which visited the Glen during
the eleven days the buck paced its
prison ledge within a few feet of one
01 in principal tourist trails thru
the gorge.

Byrd Off for
South Pole Again
September 24th
Discusses Trip with President Roose
velt; Seeks New Land; Would
Prcbe Ice Secrets.
Washington, Sept. 7. Rear Ad
miral Richard Evelyn Byrd and his
chew of scientific adventurers will
sail from Boston September 25, seek
ing to wrest remaining secrets from
the last great home of mystery the
enorrtous waste lands of the antarc
tic. The noted explorer disclosed his
departure date today after discuss
ing the trip with President Roosevelt.
Byrd disclosed his newest adventure
into the antarctic will be larger and
finer equipped, with two ships instead
of one and an augmented personnel.
Byrd will sail with 35 men each
on the Pacific Fir and the Bear, the
latter to be used to crush its way
to the edge of the ice at Little Amer
ica, and the former to serve as a base
ship north of the ice pack.
All Supplies American. j
The addition of the Pacific Fir was
made in the Interest of economy,
Byrd said, as it permitted the expedi
tion to carry all of its supplies from
the United States, including an enor
mous quantity of, gasoline and oil.1
Practically everything used, he dis
closed, was bought or donated in
America.
The expedition will be Byrd's sec
ond to the "bottom of the world."
The first started from New York in
1928 and his famous flight over the
south pole was made in 1929, the
year he spent on the ice in Little Am
erica. The return .was in 1930.
Previous to this, the adventurous
retired navy officer had flown over
the north pole and: explored the arctic
and bad hopped (,tjUe, Atlantic ocean
with three companions..
Si pie Going i Back.
Two men who weathered the ant
arctic winter of 1929 were sure to
make the present trip. They are
Paul SiDle of . Erie. Pa., who was
chosen by the Boy. Scouts of America
to make the last .journey and Har
old June of Stanford. Conn., who
will go as chief of aviation. Siple
will go as a biologist this time.
It is hoped to discover a new con
tinent, Byrd saldin addition to the
one found before; to ascertain if the
South Polar mountains were a con
tinuation of the Andean range; to
map xmnerto unexpiorea lermury
and to determine if the frozen land
once was as tropical as India. The
only contact by the party on the ice
with civilization will bo through a
short-wave wireless set . on which
messages will be sent out about once
a week. .
The equipment. Byrd said, would
include two planes, one a huge affair
capable of carrying a large party;
150 sledge dogs, several tractors and
snow mobiles, trucks with two rear
wheel treads and skiis In front.
Plans for Flights.
Byrd revealed ho would be at the
controls on the next flight over and
beyond the south pole, a more dan
gerous hop than the last, and ex
pected to provide the high spot of the
adventure.
Ho also would attempt, he said, a
flight over the south magnetic pole,
one thousand miles from Little Am
erica, the first time such nn attempt
has been made. Bases would be es
tablished, he continued, between Lit
tle America and the mour 'iln range
hemming In the pole, in case a forced
landing was necessary. woria-ner-

ROOSEVELT IN SECLUSION
Washington, Septl 1. A day of
complete rest without official callers
or the transaction of government
business was spent by President
Roosevelt, aboard Vincent Astor's
yacht Normahal, anchored in Fort
Pond bay off Montauk, Long Island.
The yacht on which the president
Is returning to Washington from his
home In Hyde Park, N. Y., dropped
anchor in the bay early Friday and
will remain here over night.
S. T. Early, one of the president's
secretaries. In a wireless message to
the navy department, said the vessel
would remain there to await better
visibility at sea.
No better town in which to re
side than Plattsmouth.
Home Owners'
Loan Corporation
Closes First Loan
Omaha Wage-Earner Who Had Lost
His Home Gets the First
Nebraska Loan.
The first home loan has been
closed in Nebraska and it is typical
of the end which it is hoped to ac
complish through this government
corporation. The loan closed is that
of an Omaha wage-earner who had
lost his home because of inability to
meet payments. The redeeming of
the home was accomplished by hav
ing the new owner accept bonds of
the Corporation for the payment of
indebtedness upon which the action
for foreclosure had been brought.
Thuc, this new owner comes into pos
session of bonds drawing four per
cent interest which is guaranteed by
the government and which run for
a period of eighteen years. The home
owntr whose home had been lost is
repnssessd of his property, and the
Home Owners' Loan Corporation
takes from him a new mortgage run
ning for a period of fifteen years and
bearing interest at five per cent.
By this comparatively simple pro
cess it is hoped to' redeem several
thousand homes to Nebraska home
owners who have lost them within
the past two years, and to prevent
the loss of several thousand more who
are threatened with a like calamity.
Many loans will, within a very few
weeks, be approved through the Om
aha and other district offices, as well
as through the headquarters office at
Grand Island. Many of these earlier
loans will be typical of the above,
where owners had given up their
property, either voluntarily or thru
foreclosure, because of lack of em
ployment or lower income, thus mak
ing distress cases.
The Omaha district office was
opend for business on August 8th
1933. During the month a total of
two thousand seven hundred and
sixty-seven applicants have request
ed loans. One thousand four hundred
and nineteen applications have been
returned with the consent of mort
gage holder to take bonds. About
one-third are urgent and will receive
attention during the next thirty days.
Forty-five applications for loans have
been recommended so 3r through the
Omaha office, totalling $97, 612.23
Of this amount 85,559.97 will apply
to the payment of back taxes, $5,
540.04 will be used for necessary re
pairs on homes where the loans have
been approved. Of the forty-five loans
recommended by the Omaha office and
forwarded to state headquarters,
twenty-six have been returned with
the state manager's approval, and one
has been rejected due to lack of suffi
cient evidence of distress. The great
number of requests acted upon have
been small homes, and only one has
exceeded 15,000 in amount. The
smallest loan is for the sum of S350
It will be noted that in these forty-
five cases the amount of the bonds
to be used in refinancing the mort
gage indebtedness total3 87.8 per
cent of the entire loan, and 12.2 per
cent of the entire loan is required in
cash to pay back taxes and for re
pairs. The repair work in connection
with these loans will give ample em
ployment within a few weeks to hun
dreds of workmen In the building
crafts. Owners are held responsible
for the completion of this repair work
and are required to submit written
estimates before loans are recom
mended. Inspectors of the corporation
will pass on the work after comple
tion and approve same before pay
ment is made.
LOAD OF COFFEE STOLEN
Omaha. Omaha police Monday
night were seeking trace of a truck
load of coffee taken from a garage
here. The truck and its load of 4,800
pounds of coffee, all in one-pound
cans, was stored in a garage by P. T.
Hagerman, manager of a trucking
firm. The coffee was to have been
hauled to Sioux City. A man, who
presented a claim check, which po
lice said was forged, drove the truck
away. The loss was discovered when
Hagerman appeared with the original
claim check.
SLEEPING SICKNESS STUDY
St. Louis. An Intensive study of
each case of encephalitis, with the
aid of four more government experts,
was planned here in an effort to dis
cover the cause and mode of trans
mission of the disease. Three deaths
occurred, sending the total to sixty
five. Seventeen new cases were un
officially reported, bringing the to
tal to 478. "It will be necessary, in
this intensive study of the epidemic
of the disease, to visit each home
where it has occurred," said a health
official here. ,

NORFOLK STRIKE IS ENDED
Norfolk, Neb. A half day strike
of twelve employes of the Norfo.k
packing company has been settled
and most of the men had returned
to their Jobs, the packing company
executives announced. According to
twelve unmarried young men who
went on "strike" at noon Thursday,
they acted when company officials
refused to grant their request for an
increase of 5 cents per hour in pay.
The men complained they were re
ceiving 10 cents per hour for pick
ing onions and asked for 15 cents,
the price which Is paid mnrrieS men.
E. L. Iden, manager, said the walk
out resulted from a misunderstand
ing on the part of the striking men.
He claimed his company is working
under the NRA code in the factory
but that on the farm no code is in ef
fect as agriculturists are exempt. The
striking men, he. said, were engaged
in farm work and not in the packing
plant.
