nr.K TWELVE THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM. OREGON THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1931 WORLD EXPERTS PLAN STUDY OF DINOSAUR EGGS Red Lodee, Mont. flP) A (Treat eongress of savants will gather here In the summer ol 1932 to inspect the scene where ages ago a pre historic dinosaur laid its egps. The eggs, or fragments ol them, discovered last year by the Prince ton University paleontoloeic ex pedition, have been heralded as one of the most Important finds on tne North American continent. The first and only dinosaur esRS found previously were uncovered by the Roy chapman Andrews ex pedition Into the Gobi desert of northwestern China. World scientists will be Invited to attend the international con gress of geologists, paleontologists ana mineralogists. Already plans are being made nd an extensive guide to the richly laden Beartooth region near here Is being prepared. Dr. Fran ces A. Thomson, president of the Montana school of mines, has plac ed the facilities of his institution In cooperation with Princeton uni versity In gatherng data for the guide book. Additional data on the region will be gathered this summer during the Princeton university summer chool under the direction of Dr. W. T. Thorn. Aside from geologi cal studies the expedition expects to contribute to the knowledge of the dim beginnings of primitive man. To Dr. J. O. G. Siegfried!, whose hobby Is the study of fossilized bones of prehistoric animals, goes the credit for attracting attention f the Beartooth district. Dr. Siegfrlcdt's discoveries star tled the scientific world some years ago, and subsequent develop ment of the region has led scien tists to the conclusion that It Is a Veritable paleontologtc playground. Aside from Its strata richly laden with fossil bones, its geologic pe- cularitles are thought to be unique i la their similarity to classic Trans- Yaal. CORNELL!

MURRAY VETOES "HEIRS' " BILL Oklahoma City., (IP) If Gov. W. H. "Alfalfa Bill" Murray's heir ap parent, Lieut. Gov. Robert Burns, continues to perforin his functions as being the "official apple sauce dishcr" lie will have to use a radio, or dig down In his own pocket for car fare. Governor Murray has vetoed a $250 appropriation for traveling ex peases for the lieutenant governor. Shortly after Murray was elected. he designated Burns, "the rightful heir apparent," as the "apple sauce dlslier" for the administration. "1 hereby appoint Burns to this high office, knowing the weighty problems of state will occupy my attention. I hereby notify all those wishing the services of an orator at dinners, banquets, funerals and chiltr christenings to call on my heir apparent. It's an old Engllsn cus tom," the governor said in a formal statement issued after the election. The governor apparently nas as sumed many of the designated du ties of the heir apparent. He will Itave late In May for California for a vaention Atlanta, Ga. (IP) Intelligence tests are based upon unestabllshed the ories, but in the examination of hu man physiognomy specialists finally will be able t ascertain the mental and moral characteristics of all hu man beings, Governor L. O. Hard- man of Georgia, believes. So convinced Is he that a study of physiognomy, particularly of finger prints, will result In the definite de. termination of character and crim inal tendencies that he has recom mended legislation and the estab lishment of a special chair at the state university to study the subject. For several yearn he has carried on correspondence and read reports dealing with his theory, and in that time has written scientist.? of Great Britain, France, Italy and Germany for their viewpoints. Now the governor believes his the ory has been proven correct, "I have had the finger prints of ten patients at the state Insane afylum sent to an Ohio expert," he said. "The reports definitely establish that there is a relation between tho prints and the criminal, or Insane characteristics of the patients. "There must be definite relation between the loops and whorls of a person's fingertips and the corre sponding cells of his brain, which arc connected with his fingers over a nervous system. Physicians, or alienists, allow their own feelings to influence pronounce ments of mentality, according to the governor, but physiological records, once acquired under the law which he desires, would be for authentic ., wherever the Individual exam ined came Into later contact with th Inw. As an example of Inaccuracy In describing character, the governor declared that citizens from a ueor ala county, gave positive and rell able testimony that s certain man could not have committed a series of criminal attacks in Atlanta. Yet four women positively Identified him as their attacker, and it was neces sary to allow the electric chair to take Its victim, me man naa al ready been convicted. An examination of his physical characteristics by one who knew how to interpret, would prevent any doubt about his possession or lack of criminal tendencies," Governor Hardman said. Now retiring as governor, he has led a busy life as a physician In a northeast Georgia farming section. For decades he practiced medicine and carried on numerous business enterprises. Late In life he was elect ed governor of the state and has held that office for four years. Georgia took a decided step in the psychological examination of crim inals during the past year when the Bradbcrry brothers, two rural youths were saved from execution for mur der, by a psychological examination. At the time Dr. A. S. Edwards, head of the University of Georgia, depart ment of psychology, visited the boys in Jail and declared that they pos sessed child-like mentalities which kept them from being responsible for their crime. The two killed an aged negro couple. TEXAS PECANS FOR KING Austin, Tex. (IP) Texas pecan trees will be planted In the grounds of King Boris summer home in Bul garia. Mrs. Louise de Rosales of Washington has ordered 100 trees sent the Bulgarian monarch as a gilt. The Ramsey nursery here which filled the order last year sent 110 pecan trees to Natal In South Africa. U. S. REVISES MEXICAN FRUIT SHIPPING RULES Washlnplon aP) Revised regula tions covering shipment of Mexican citrus fruits in bond through the United States have been issued by the United States Ui partiutut of agriculture. This is tne urst gcncim reviMi'" which has been made since the en cular instructions of February. 19-'tf. but during the interim some admin istrative methods have been chang ed in consonance with the general purpose of the regulations, which is to prevent entry of the Mexican fruit fly (Trypcia luuensi. The rigid control of fruit ship ments from" Mexico across United States territory is explained by of ficials here as due to the profound economic consequences which rein- troduction of the fruit fly migm have. A three year campaign has been waged by the United States department of agriculture against fruit fly infestation in the lower Rio Grande valley region with success ful results. The chief changes in the new gulations relate to the transship ment of Mexican oranges at Iew York, and to the routing of citrus fruits shipped from the state of Sonora In bond across the United States to Canada. The new regulation regarding transshipment at New York, which extends the period when such transfer is permissible, reads text ually as follows: "In addition to the rail movement from the Mexican border ports of citrus fruit produced in the state of Sonora. Mexico, under the condi tions set forth above, citrus fiui. from any part of Mexico coming to the port of New York or other ap proved northern Atlantic ports by ocean transit during the rod November 15 to March 15, if aD. narentlv free from liifi..:i-H.... determined by Inspection at the'ap. proved port of entry, may be Pl.,-. milled entry at such ports f()r U1 mediate transportation and cxpor. tation In bond to Canada in accord ance with section 7 of the rule and regulations promulgated by the s-.-c-retnry of agriculture. "A separate permit Is required for each slllnmcnc of thin . -in, and application should be made in advance. However, if all rcqumt information is not available in ad vance of shipment, the forward ing agent at New York mny file aa application at the New York ollice of the plant quarantine and control administration at 45 Broadway, on the arrival of the shipment at that port. After the shipment has reached destination and been discharged either In Canada or Mexico, the car conveying it, as a condition of re turn to the United States, mint be carefully swept and lreed from all hop.i. fruit or other rubbish hi- !ho railroad company Involved."

OIL GIVES TEXAS U. 9 BUILDINGS Austin, Tex., (LP) Nine new build ings to cost (4,000,000, have been ordered erected by regents of the University of Texas, "the school that oil built." The new units, all of which will be ready for use In 1034, will be paid for under a new financing plan approved by the Texas legislature and Gov, Ross Bterllng. Although the university has a permanent fund of $17,500,000 ac cumulated largely by lease and royalty payments on oil-producing lands of the school, It has been re stricted to use of the Income from Investment of the fund. The new plan allows tlie regents to pledge the Income for a 15-year period, se curing Immediate funds for expau alon. Chairman B. L. Batts testified recently that the regents estimate the permanent fund eventually will amount to 200.000,000. by reason of oil royalty payments. After 1933, the university will (hare the Income from the fund with Texas A. & M. college. The new buildings for the uni versity will be erected In the follow ing order: library, boys' dormi tory; student union building and cafeteria; physics, home econom ics, geology, architecture and en gineering classroom buildings.
