This city, hy its citizens do scribed as "The Oeni," is two hours' ride south of Phoenix, by the Southern Pacific. Trav plitif; through Suit Uiver valley on the way you see fields of lettuce as big as a Kansas corn field. Mexicans work in them. Japanese, marvelous agricultur ists, direct them, United States citizens own them. A friend who has talked to the writer about Tucson for years has not told half the story. Built, on the desert, the city is surrounded on all sides by tall and beautiful nioun 1 tains. It has practically been created in ten years, has the biggest, bank in Arizona, and is spreading out toward the mountains and climbing up their sides rapidly. liny some of that high land now and luter you will feel like the real estate man of Long Beach, Cal., who said to this writer: "I felt guilty when I sold sand lots to easterners for $100 each. Now I couldn't buy back some of them for $100,000 each." If you arc avaricious, buy Tucson real estate wisely. If your health is unsatisfactory, live in Tucson and it will be . .. better than ever. ' you are will and want to live 100 years more, spend your f inters in Tucson. ' Mir. Van Dc Vries, president of the Chamber of Commerce and a real estate man, dislikes to sell any real estate, knowing that be ought to keep it all. Hut if you write he will send in formation. If you look through Congress street, Tucson's main thorough fare, you see at the far end a beautiful purple mountain, un der a brilliant blue sky. That's better than seeing one of the large gas tanks that occasion ally block your view in New York. Kvcrything in Tucson is in teresting, from the new real es tate developments of brilliantly colored bouses on one side, the old Indian village on the other. The big f lajid brown goats that lie in the sunshine against the Indian adobe walls are pleasing. You wish that civil ized real estate did not drive them 'out. And the young In dian mother, barely 1S, her four little children born close together, busy in her bright red dress, pleases you more than the "low sun-hacked" ladies at more fashionable resorts. There is a separate village for Yaqui Indians. No one disturbs them for the saying "a Yaqui enn lick ten ordinary men" i not. fiction. When somebody is killed in that village, unwritten law al lows the Indians to attend to it. Thev know what is best.

The wet and dry conflict wns precipitated by Representative Lfnthlcum, Democrat, Maryland leader of the unofficial nntl-pro-htbitlon group. Ho attacked tho practice of wire tapping and ac cused the prohibition bureau of "operating speakeasies to entrap police." He was joined by Representa tives ! thick and Mead, both New York Uemcornts.

Prevention Also Hope Held In Research of Dr. Moritz Weber, University of Cali forniaTrace Affliction Cause Boon for Millions of Successful. HRKKKLKY, Cal., Jan. 17. Hope that the deaf may be made to hear and that ultimately tho affliction will be preventable, was held nut 'hero. 'today- by Div Moritz Weber, associate in research modi cine nt the Hooper Foundation of University of California. Dr. Weber based his hope on months of study and research In bone pathology and made public riiiniiiniuim in a (UlltlHl lejinii to the foundation. From Investigations of the skull hones of persons suffering from progressive op incurable deafness. technically known as otosclerosis, Dr. Weber concluded Hils common malady prenentH n definite diseased bone picture and that there is a possibility of finding animals in which similar conditions occur ond from which the cause of the con dition may be discovered. "Mloehemieal analysis h a ve shown," says Weber's report, "that otosclerosis Is nlwnyn accompanied by a. generalized disturbance of metabolism which might easily have mi Influence on the general bone system. Presumably in var ious eases of otosclerosis this gen eralized disturbance of metabolism does not necessarily have the nnmo general biochemical aspect. Perhaps tho metabolic disturb ance in question all have one common factor, as yet unknown. The report adds that "one may look Into 1he future with confidence. If research succeeds in producing the typical hone picture of hyperlnstlc otosclerosis in anlma! hy any method. It will be possible to as certain the factor or factors that alone are responsible for the spon taneous appearance of otosclerosis In human beings." In another section of the report, Dr. Weber says: "The bone picture of otowclerosis Is identical with that of a localized condition of fibre-tike degeneration of the bone resulting from malnu trition. It Is questionable whether tho hyperlastlc form of otosclerosis can be produced exclusively with out an accompanying generalized disturbance of metabolism, or the utllh'-ation of food In tho life pro-ee-s of the body." Concerning deafness and anent the Weber report, Dr. Oeorge C. Coleman of the Hooper Foundation said: Millions of people in the Vn!t ed Htates are either totally deaf or have seriously impaired henring. Aside from the physical suffering many undergo there are millions of others adversely affected hy the resulting economic a nd social ih peets of their ma lady. There Is probably no other disease affecting so many people n bo tit which tho public knows so tittle. The num ber of chronic sufferer whose credulty permit their exploitation by quacks in unbelievable. The medical department of the university is making a special ludy of deafness.
