$27,300 GIVEN
UTILITY PROBE
The state emergency board voted
unanimously here yesterday to
authorize Utilities Commissioner C
M. Thomas to expend $27,300 in
excess of his legislative appropria
tion during 1933.
The added expenditure will be for
rate and charges investigations and
will be assessed against all the util
gross revenues, as provided by a
new legislative act.
"We are now faced with the task
of obtaining new inventories' from
the utilities before regulation can
be enforced effeciently," Thomas
told the board. "I have wondered
how it was possible for previous
utility commissions to increase and
reduce rates without a rate struc
ture upon which to base its action.
When we make an order under
present conditions we know that it
will be taken into the courts."
Fred Kiddle, president of the sen
ate, called the meeting of the emer
gency board to consider Thomas'
request.

FARMS CALL
CITY PEOPLE
BACK TO SOIL
Columbia, Mo. (I?) City America
is going back home. '
Which Is to say that the farm
reared city folks, tired of trying to
cope with unemployment, are seek
ing to live on the soil.
During 1933 the migration of city
dwellers to farms exceeded the pop
ulation flow in the other direction
by an estimated 207,000.
The department of rural sociology
at the Missouri college of agricul
ture is concerned with this, as are
most agricultural' agencies. -; -!
Major farm adjustments mean an
increasing heavy problem for those
who try to smooth out the farmers'
way.
The shift in population vitally af
fects two great groups:
Hie city dwellers, alarmed at the
heavy load of emergency relief, who
are glad to escape part of their
burden.
The rural interest, concerned with
its own rural problem andvary of
having the numbers of its destitute
unemployed increased by migration
from the cities.
Too many of the migrators lack
sufficient money to purchase land.
Rented land has a tendency to de
teriorate under tenant management.
Many of the new farmers . even
lack money sufficient to care for
the needs of their families while
waiting for the first crop.
Failure looms for those city dwel
lers who, unfamiliar with the man
ner of life on the farm and without
capacity to adjust readily to the new
environment, attempt to make the
change.
GROCERY CHAINS
PROTEST WAGE CODE
Boston, July 21 Charles P.
Adams, treasurer of the largest New
England-owned chain of grocery
stores, speaking for the retail trade
generally on president Roosevelt's
proposed blanket code of hours and
wages, today expressed the opinion
that indiscriminate application
might greatly increase the cost of
goods to the consumer. He voiced
the belief that such cost would be
without compensating benefit to
business in general.
Adams, who is treasurer of the
First National Stores, operating 2800
stores in New England and a part
of New York, said payrolls of retail
ing organizations generally had been
maintained within 10 or 15 percent
of normal.
Application of the code to retail
ing, he said, might add 25 to 30 per
cent or more to the personnel with
consequent increases in the cost of
products to the consumer.

HAUNTED PEAK
WAS PARIDISE
Washington, (JP) If you should
visit a river bank in the mountains
of northern Siam some evening
and suddenly think you hear rain
falling and ot the same time seem
to notice the ground moving, don't
blame it on what you've been drink
ing, for Dr. Hugh Smith, collaborat
or of the Smithsonian Institution
has the explanation.
Dr. Smith, who is also Fisheries
advisor to the Siamese government,
explains that he recently pitched
camp on a 'river bank, in that
vicinity, which was covered with a
living carpet of "daddy longlegs"
with legs nearly three inches long.
- "Hie entire surface of the land
seemed to be in motion," Smith
says. "They become active at dusk
and when they moved over the dried
leaves they made a noise like falling
raindrops."
On another of his expositions
Dr. Smith ascended a reputedly
"haunted" mountain after natives
had refused to accompany him
because of their dread of the "Pi
(Spirits). Instead of the alleged
"Pi." he found the highest peak
"a literal ..collector's paradise" with
pine and chestnut treees decorated
with hanging orchids, and gibbons
leaping among the branches. This
strange forest, Smith says, contained
chattering monkeys, barking deer,
several species of squirrels includ
ing one rare giant form of bamboo
rats, porcupines and black bears
with nests in chestnut trees where
they fed on the nuts."
Art Consciousness
Here With Depression
New Orleans, (LP) People have be
come "art conscious" "during the
business depression because they
have had more time to think about
art, according to Miss Angela Greg
ory, sculptress. Before the depres
sion, they were too busy thinking
about other things, she said.
Miss Gregory believes the Ameri
can people have a strong urge for
beautiful architecture, while areni
tects, she said, are realizing more
and more the need of sculpture in
building.

several millions of dollars in taxa

benefit to the farmers, grain com
panies and others holding wheat.
It is officially estimated that there
are 200,000,000 bushels for export
and carry over, 00,000,000 being In
the western elevators, 15,000,000 in

the balance is owned by exporters,

The Dominion Government s nuge
venture Into the grain market In an
effort to stabilize prices lias been
shrouded in secrecy, so that none
but the Prime Minister and a few
confidential advisors know to how
much the government was commit
ted. Even parliament was reiusea
information.
When wheat was under 50 cents a
bushel, It was estimated that the
government stood to lose $25,000,000,
which must come out of the general
taxpayers' pocket. With the recent
rise In wheat there is a possibility
of the government breaking even.

ITALIANS OPEN
MONSTER DRIVE
ON MOUNTAINS
Rome (LP) Mussolini now ha
taken ud the task of fiaudatively
leveling off the mountains to take
care of his Increasing population.
Today, this has become a prob
lem. Wherever possible, thousands
of villagers are being persuaded
to abandon their homes incon
veniently located on mountain tops
and settle on level land. In many .
cases, and especially in southern '
Italy, this has been successful.
The present drive concerning the
mountain regions embraces refor-.'
estation plans, adequate pasturage '
space, gardening and finally, cattle
breeding.
No less than one-third of the
Italian communes, numbering 7,311
to date, are perched on mountain
toils. One-fifth of the entire popu
lation, or approximately eight mil
lion people, live about the decrepit
walls of these mountain villages,
and 90 per cent maintain themselves
wholly through what little profit
can be made out of the woods and
pastures.
The dominant cause for the pres
ent day difficulties of the mountain
peoples lies in the distinct detach
ment between "lowland" and "high
land" economics. Therefore, it is
thought, to change .this as soon as
possible will lmpiove conditions foe
the mountaineers.
