MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEPFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 29. 1933. PAOE THREE IAT CONTINENT BENEATH PACIFIC Land Twice Width America With High Mountains and Great Depths Found by Echo Measurement Device SAN DIEOO, Cal., DM. 39. (AP) Stretching beneath the surface of the North Pacific Ilea a complete continent, hitherto unknown, with huge plateaus, broaaer than an above surface continent: with twice fie width of America: with mountains higher than Mt. Everest,' the highest neaks of which are Known to us as the Hawaiian Islands, and with great depths, sepsratlng It from Asia, that drop more than six miles to their bottoms. Ohoes Tell Tale This unknown territory was dis covered recently by the echoes from the Sonic Depth Finder aboard the U. S. S. Rampo on a survey of the ocean bottom from America to 'Asia and from 10 to 50 degrees north lat. Itude, when she was commanded by Captain Claude B. Mayo, u. 8. N. Captain Mayo visited the Scrlpps Institution of Oceanography at La Jolla Christmas day and left craphlc picture of Vie complete sub terranean continent revealed by his soundings. Captain Mayo constructed a relief model of the floor of the pacmc now on display at the Museum of Natural History In Balboa park here. Depths Off Asia The submerged territory Is not marked by steep depths In Its sepa ration from North America, which appears more to be a raised eastern shoulder of the submerged conti nent. But It Is separated from the Minister To Persia William H, Hornlbrook of Salt Lake City, Utah, hat been appoint ed United States minister to Persia, (Associated Press Photo) west coast of Asia by a series of tre- mendoust depths, some being more than six miles to their bottoms. From north to south in the west portion of the continent stands i mammoth mountain ridge with tow ering peaks that are known to Pa cific mariners as Islands (Hawaiian, etc.). banks and reefs. Although there Is no proof, It may be conjec tured that when survey la made of the Pacific floor area south of 10 degrees north. It will be discovered that the various groups of South Sea Islands are southern peaks of the great western ridge of the aub- conttnent. Be correctly corseted In an Artist Model by Ethel wyn B.

IN RECOVERY ACT Full Benefits Not Yet Felt On Coast, Lumber Associa tion Head Tells Confer enceEducator Skeptical that NRA codes retarded progress of the most efficient concerns In .the endeavor to pull the more Inefficient out of the "red." and even Dar win's old theory of the "survival of the fittest" was brandished as dele gates discussed the Idea of modify ing the codes or letting the weaker firm "sink." Colonel Greeley, citing the bene fits of the code to the lumber in dustry, said one mill on the Pacific coast "paid Its employes an average of 4 cents an hour and opened its operations each morning with pray ers" until the NRA compelled a raise In wages. SEATTLE, Wash.. Dec. 29. (AP) Economists from all over the west tnnit- th national reooverv act apart tnHnv tn amm WHM mflKea it bo. ana m.ntt nt thorn rierlded It maV BO very far toward Improving social con- dlttona li It doesm iry to repeal me economic laws. Th Pacifie Coast economic con ference brought delegates from many western universities and government, experts who discussed the NRA all day. Col. William B. Greeley, manager of the West Coast Lumbermen's as sociation .here, said the lumber code haa put more men to work and paid them more money for less labor, but that the full benefits of tne coae have not yet been felt on the coast. Educator Skeptical urv-f MnrhRii D. Ketchum. Utah State college, said the codes are in efficient In a dynamic society and prevent rapid development of busi ness to changing conditions. "Governments could do rar more to aid human progress by preventing mom t.hnn bv attemotlnK to regulate the economic system" through codes. because they fall to smootn tne tar sr." in afonomlr. nrocress. These "irkv fjLtufl business fluctuations. he said, adding that government re striction of natural economic xorces will not make for rapid recovery. Complaints Cited Floor discussion developed that many Industrial plants complained the eoonomlo association and the American Statistical association that from 15 to 30 per cent of the rail road men working In 1930 could not find similar employment even with the return of prosperity. Brown asserted between 70 and 0 per cent of the economies railroads can make will be In labor services, and said any consolidations would greatly increase the percentage of men never to be re-employed. "Some positive program for the prevention or compensation of this displacement must be developed un less labor, as In the psst, Is to bear the full brunt of dismissal," .he said. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.. Dec 29. (AP) Saying the NRA program Is "not quite clear," Professor George PUipetti, economics authority at the University of Minnesota, today told the American Economic association that It may lead to poverty. "Code regulations that will influ ence prices will prove disruptive of past Interindustry relationships," he said In a paper presented at one of 16 simultaneous socio-economic con ventlons. "In many Instances the regulations may eliminate price com petition." Market Restriction Seen "Furthermore, unless something : unforeseen develops, the markets for ' producers' goods will grow constantly more restricted due to provisions penalizing the machines and the or ganization of new units in 'over-expanded' Industries," he said. "Restricted production and (prloe maintenance will give balance and poverty; increasing production im plies fluidity and change, but It Is the road to plenty." He advised business men to "keep their positions flexible" and said in dustry and labor must "hhare their gains" with the consumer. , Railroaders Suffer J.
