Editorial Correspondence
FURNACE CREEK, Death Valley, Calif., Feb. 26. Here we
arc in the middle of Death Valley, a gorgeous moonlight night,
as balmy as May, sitting on a hotel terrace and looking across
the white sand to the1 stage scenery mountains in the distance
certainly one of the most enchanting spots in this country and
we believe in the world. In fact in our judgment there is noth
ing like Death Valley this side of the MOON. To those who
come here in airplanes and many do (there is a private plane
from San Francisco here on the landing field below) it must
look much like the moon through a powerful telescope, the
mountains completely bare, the dark craters, the deep shadows,
no living thing in sight, a bare relief map, a composite of high
lights and sharp shadows in the mellow light of the moon I
"DEATH VALLEY!" no place has ever been or could
be better named. And that is why the name will stick, in
spite of all efforts to change it. There is no doubt the name
hurts the tourist business, particularly as the source of all tour
ist business is in California. As a large percentage of Californi
ans are there to prolong their life, escape death, a place called
Death Valley is anathema to them. In the little hotel in Pasa
dena which we left this morning, there was only one guest out
of 50 odd, that eould be induced to come. "Death Valley"
what a name, why should one go to a place like that 1
Were it known as "Paradise Ranch", or "the Valley of the
Moon", it would be as popular a tourist resort as it deserves
to be.
This is our second visit, our first trip to Death Valley was
made six or seven years ago. Nothing has changed since then
but the roads, and the guests here at the hotel making their first
trip think they are terrible. Well they are as roads go now
adays. But some idea of how they have improved may be
gleaned from the fact that on that first trip we left Arrow Head
Hot Springs near San Bernardino, one afternoon, spent the
night at Barstow, left early the next morning and driving the
car steadily renched Furnace Creek just as the sun was going
down.
This morning we left Pasadena at 9:30, lunched at Barstow
and reached here at the same time (stinset) the SAME day.
The little green bug had to take some awful punishment to
make it, the dust has gone, ditto the sand, but there arc miles
of rocks and chuck holes on a corduroy base instead biit make

Mention Death Valley to anyone and nine times out of ten,
the comment will bo "Oh, that's where Ssotty, of Death Valley
came from," the man who brought gold nuggets out of the
desert depths and ran a special train from Barstow -to Chicago
in record time a record that has never been equalled.
That's all true except the gold. Scotty never found any gold
in Death Valley, or anywhere else.' He did find a Chicago multi
millionaire by the name of Johnsen, who spent three or four
millions curing his asthma and building a fantastic palace near
here, and paid Scotty $150 per month to act as his desert agent.
Johnsen is bankrupt now. So is Scotty. They are charging
tourists $1 per to look over this monument to the post-war boom
and the greatest single barreled publicity hound since P. T.
Barnum. Ilowover, more of that anon. '.

ROOSEVELT'S YEAR
AS PRESIDENT HAS
PLENTY0F ACTION
Executive Summarizes Work
in Words 'We Are On Our
Way' Money Program
Takes Main Interest Now
By B.vron Price
(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
Preas, Washington)
No one hat tummarl&M rind char
acterised the first year of the Rooae-
velt administration more eucclnctiy!
than the president himself. In these
words: We are on our way."
By that Mr. Roosevelt means we
are on our way toward recovery
and million of his fellow-cltlrens
agree with him. The ordinary In
dices of trade activity show a pretty
consistent upturn for the year. Pub
lic confidence la unqneationauiy
stronger than It was on that dark
Inauguration day last year.
The agreement Is not universal
Some are disposed to paraphrase the
old popular song and say: "We are
on our way, but where?" They doubt
the soundness of the Roosevelt ex
periment, and the enduring quality
of the results.
Rut at any rat, everyone agrees
things are moving. To the detached
observer at Washington that Is the
outstanding development of the year,
whatever It may mean. In February.
1033, deadlock, stagnation, wearlneas
In February. IfiM, action, motion,
momentum. That tells the story.
A Livelier Tempo
It would take many columns to
detail the varying aspect of the
change aa they affect Individual
fields of action. Government build
ing which a year ago droned with
the prosaic routine of long-estab
lished governmental procedure echo
today to the noisy tread of hurrying
delegations, flying messengers, mile
a-mlnute governmental action.
Washington hotels are crowded
The streets, even In mid-winter, are
like the street of a metropolis. A
new air of gaiety prc.vl- over glit
tering and vivacious social gather
hvs at the White House and at many
an humbler fireside.
Congress drive ahead, under the
Iron hand of strict administration
control. Politics Is In an uproar, and
the party lines of a year ago maver
and totter a new Ideas, new pro
J ecu, new vision of breath-taking
scope pour from the administration
fountain.
It la true today' Idea may be for
gotten by tomorrow, but no matter:
Washington Is In motion, and. after
a year of it, Washington begins to
think It may be perpetual.
The New NRtlonullKin
Not the least strange of these new

Mr. Roosevelt has been able to fast

No one ha ever a blood vessel finer
then the smallest artery, wnlch phys

The blood that has seeped through

the Interchange of oxygen and car
bon dioxide occurs, oxygen carried to
the tissue from the lungs, carbon
dioxide picked up from the tissues
to be taken back to the lungs. Also
other substances are exchanged nu
tritive material given to the cell,
waste material picked up to be car
ried, to the excretory organ. From
the capillary spaces, in all tissues of
the body, the blood Is collected in tne
very smallest veins, called venule,
and these Join again to form larger
veins, and finally the blood to the
right auricle of the heart.
Through an oversight, as It seems at
first, no valves were installed
between the vena cava and the right
auricle. Nothing to prevent the aur-
lcle-ful of blood from backing into
the vena cava when the heart beat.
Nothing apparent. But actually there
1 no such fault. The breathing serves
as a booster pump, tending to pull
the blood from the vein of the limbs
and the head Into the larger veins.
and the larger vein have valves far
enough from the heart so that they
hold nearly a pint of blood. Probably
that pint of blood I sucked Into the
venous cistern with each Inspiration,
and pumped through the heart with
each four or' five heartbeat. That's
the ordinary ratio of breathing rate
and pulse rate. Remember, It takes
23 seconds for the blood to make the
complete circuit of the body, and an
adult weighing ISO pounds ha 8 to 9
pounds of blood. Six ounces pumped
out by every heart beat. How doe It
all figure out?
From the auricle the blood paases
through the tricuspid valve into the
ventricle, and at the next heartbeat
it Is pumped from the ventricle

DEATH rides the new on tne day
these word are written death
in about every form Viat could be
imagined.

TORNADOES in the South take
toll of 10 lives.
In the tornado country, a cloud
appears on the horizon usually an
Insignificant-appearing cloud. The
wind that follows deals death and
destruction In a . dozen terrifying
forma.
We of the fortunate Pacific Coast
are spared this menace. For that we
should give thanks.
FROM Indiana to the Atlantic
Coast, the country 1 raked by
blizzards and burled In snow.
Six deaths are attributed to the
weather in New England. At Port-!
land, In Maine, the snow blanket
reaches a depth of two and a half
feet. At Mapleton, Maine, a train
is wrecked when It runs Into a solid
snowbank, and the engineer la killed.
TnHE engineer was killed."
1 How often that sentence la a
part of the atory of a train wreck.
Yet thare is no scarcity ot engineers.
Men of this age are not afraid of
dangerous Jobs.
That Is something to be proud of.
INCIDENTALLY, have you ever
stopped to think how seldom we
.hear of train wreck In these days?
. The railroads have become, amazingly
safe.
CARBON monoxide fumes kill nine
students at Dartmouth college,
all members of Theta Chi fraternity
An explosion occurred in the fur
nace during the night, blowing open
the door and disconnecting the pipe
that led to the chimney. The gas
fumes escaped from the furnace,
crept through the house until they
reached the sleeping apartment where
these nine boys lay.
That was the end,
CARBGM monoxide gas Is present
In the exhaust of burning fuels,
including gasoline. Never a year
passes without marking up Its toll
of deaths due to running an auto
mobile engine In a closed room, such
as a garage with the doors shut.
- -
WHEN these ACCIDENTS occur In
peace time, we are shocked and
horrified. . j
When gases, far more deadly and I
terrible than carbon monoxide, are
used In war time to kill men by the
thousancV. sending them to their
deaths in terrible agony, we say
merely: "It's war."
WELL, it IS, and war Is becoming
more ghastly and frightful with
each repetition. Goodness knows
what we shall sec If Europe goes to
war again, as seems now lo be threat
ened. ---
AOREAT airliner crashes Just east
of Salt Lake City, and the eight
persons aboard die Instantaneously,
apparently; never knowing what hit
them.
That is a mercy, when one has to
die. it Is fine to die quickly.
--
AIRPLANES are still dangerous.
But at least they usually KILL.
Instead of crippling. This writer,
for one. would far rather be killed
than crippled.

Say goodbye to care,
Come meet me somewhere.
In the valley of the Rogue.
You will always remember
The blue of the sky
Each day is a rival,
To the one Just gone by.
There's gold tor the finding
And showers satisfy;
The snow lingers only
Where mountains are high.
Blossoms and wild flowers
And purple mists seem
Inviting a future
Sweet a a dream.
Say goodbye to care,
Come meet me somewhere '
In the valley of the Rogue.

If a Child Won't
Parents who understand children
know where to place the blame
when, a youngster mopes, keeps to

But it's just as wrong lo dose that
child with sickening cathartics.
Until 15 or oldera child's bowels
need but little aid a very mild
form of help. Stronger things often
upset the stomach or weaken the
bowel muscles, l-or tne happy
solution of this problem see what
to do, in the next column:
