Colorful Philippine
Moroland,
where under the American flag live
sultans, rajahs, princesses and
imams, was brought closer to
Manila when Dayang Dayang (prin
cess) Hadji Piandao of Sulu signed
documents renouncing long-standing
land claims of the Sulu sultanate
against the Philippine government.
Heiress to the late Sultan Jamalul
Kiram II, the Dayang Dayang in
herited the claims of the sultanate
to various lands, including 700 islets
in the Celebes sea as well as the
people on them and the waters
about them.
In renouncing the claims, the prin
cess accepted an offer of the govern
ment, embodied in a law, to adjudi
cate to certain members of the Sulu
royal house tracts of land of the pub
lic domain in the Sulu archipelago.
Titles to these pieces of land ac
cordingly will be issued by the com
monwealth.
In the renunciatory documents,
however, the Dayang Dayang re
served her claims to exclusive own
ership of 14 islets between Sulu
archipelago and Borneo. Inhabited
by Moros (Filipino Mohammedans),
these 14 islets actually are under
the jurisdiction of British North Bor
neo, to which the Dayang Dayang
has presented claims of ownership.
According to the princess, she in
herited the islets from her royal an
cestors and she is the only person
who could rightfully govern them.
She says the inhabitants of the
islets recognize her as their own
sovereign.
U. S. to Prepare a Haven
In Nevada for Wild Life
A 40,COO-acre swamp and meadow
in eastern Nevada will be prepared
for occupancy by migrating birds
and waterfowl, Capt. Keith K.
Tatom of the Fort Douglass CCC
district headquarters here has an
nounced.
The area, located in Ruby valley,
Nevada, will be the third largest
migratory bird sanctuary in the
United States.
A section of land about 16 miles
long and two miles wide has been
acquired by the federal government.
The area is fed by many natural
springs that will provide natural
waterways and islands.
It will
make “ ideal swampland” for birds,
Tatom said.
The job of engineers is to convert
a vast waste land into an even more
worthless wasteland. Much of the
area will be flooded, and bushes and
other herbage planted to create the
best possible conditions for migrat
ing birds.
The valley is already a natural
resting place and nesting ground for
ducks, geese, pelicans and almost
every other variety of migratory bird
found in this section of the country.
By scientific methods they hope to
change it into a place more natural
than even nature could devise.
Two hundred CCC boys have been
put to work clearing the land of
worthless vegetation, cutting canals
and building islands for the birds
to alight on.
The refuge will be surpassed in
size only by the Bear River refuge
in Utah and the Malheur refuge in
central Oregon.

present.
Mrs. Maye Is Honored Wednesday

Rodents Carry Plague Infection
CORVALLIS — The danger of
plague infection in handling rodents
is emphasized by a report received by
O.S.C. from southern Oregon, that
a marmot examined by the state
health service had been found posi
tive for plague. Dr. Karl Frederich
Meyer, director of the Hooper found
ation for medical research, who spoke
at Oregon State last winter, called
attention to the danger in handling
chipmunks, squirrels, prairie dogs and
cottontail rabbits, as well as rats, as
any of these may be infected or may
carry infected fleas.

Kenneth Warren, violin appraiser
for a national musical instrument
firm, counsels:
“ It is significant that of all the
hundreds of so-called Cremonese
violins that have been brought in for
appraisal not a single genuine in
strument has ever been found.
“ Hundreds of persons a year, who
have violins bearing the labels of
the Cremonese makers, Stradivari

to us to sell them.
— Specials for August 16, 17 & 19 —
“These instruments were not
made to deceive anyone. They were
originally made as models from
those of the Cremonese and a ticket
was put inside to indicate that they
were copies of the maker. In the

Important Kitchen Sink
The sink has been called the most
important single piece of equipment
in the kitchen. As both food prep
aration and the cleaning away proc
esses involve (he use of the sink,
more than half of the housewife's
cooking time in the kitchen is spent
at the sink. Among the many types
which may be chosen is an acid-
resisting, cast-iron, enameled sink,
with chromium plated swinging
spout and a disappearing spray
hose, obtainable in single or
double compartment styles, with
one or two drainboards. A 60-inch
cabinet sink has two drainboards
and one basin: the 42 and 52-inch
models have one basin and one
drainboard.
All models are 36
inches high, which is the correct
height for the average woman, and
all are 23% inches wide, which is
the standard width of the steel base
cabinets. The sink, since it is the
most used fixture, should be half
way between the refrigerator and
I the range.
