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

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.

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.

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.

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

Industrial relation section of Prince
