f hundreds of millions of dollars for
persons who cannot be located, ac
cording to William A. Law, prest

certificates of Indebtedness, and
treasury savings certificates.
These Items have matured and In

would be difficult to estimate, Is held
by Ufa Insurance companiea for pol

ernmental agencies."
JUAN LES PINS, Prance. (UP)
This beach resort, famous for un
f dress, is more undressed than ever
this year. .
. Last season a regulation brassiere
in addition to trunks was worn. This
season a carelessly tied hankie substi
tutes for the brassiere, and a flimsy
loin cloth for the trunks. Most ev
everyone sheds the hankie while sun
sing on the beach.
The young generation did not start
the fad. The old generation did.
But the young crowd quickly adopted
It. Today the beach looks like a
version of the Garden of Eden.
The girls even paint their lips
differently. The lipstick line has
jotten. to be a circle. Pouting inge
nue Hps being the effect desired. If
you can make your lips look like a

Reservoir lakes, upon which It de
pends for its life blood, contain bil
lion of gallons less water than a
year ago. Tributary streams already
are mere trickles through the parch
ed northwest.
Continued drought will sea record
low marks established along the
Mississippi this summer, government
engineers predict. The river is dis
charging but 3,900 cubic feet of water
per second at St. Paul, compared to
normal discharge for this period
from 5,000 to 8.000 oublo feet.
Engineers explained thst the Has
tings dsm held the level fairly steady
here so far, but, below the new dams,
the Winona station reported the level
four feet lower than that of a year
ago. At Winona the flow Is 11,000 sec
ond feet, compared to 25,000 a year
ago.
I. Years of drought have drained the

Six headwater reservoirs today con

The disastrous drought wlileh hs

boon.
For the first lime In many year.,
residents along the Missouri river In
this section of Iowa are not mu.n,
preparations against the annual
Hood. Warm winds which melt snow
la the mountain states usually cause
the river to overflow 1U banks. Tills
year, weather Bureau officials point
ed out, dry lsnd will absorb the wat
ers which tuuslly cause floods.

in Oregon City for a time. His wife
started one of the first nurseries In
Oregon, planting apple seeds brought
across the plains from Michigan,

SAFETY CAMPAIGN
OLD STUFF IN 1808
PHILADELPHIA (UP) Safety first
campaigns did not start with the ad
vent of the automobile. They were
old stuff la 1008, as revealed In one
of a collection of children's books
recently exhibited here.
The old book published In that
year contains a number of "caution
ary stories In Terse. One example
was:
"Miss Helen was always too giddy
to heed
What her mother had told her
to shun,
For frequently over the street In
full speed
She would cross where the car
riages run."
The moral, of course, was reached
in the final verse when the young
lady who disobeyed hor mother was
struck by one of the many carriages.
EAGLES DUEL ALL DAY
ASTORIA, Ore. (UP) An areal
battle to the death of two male bald
eagles for possession of a mate was
witnessed by residents of the Youngs
Bay district near hers.
Participants were a veteran, who
had lived there with hi, mate for
more than ten years and a young
freebooter who cast covetous eyes on
the female bird.
The eagles fought for almost an
entire day, separating, then charging-
together. Occasionally tufts of
bloody feathers drifted down. At
dawn the neat day they continued
but the old bird was weaker. Final
ly he plunged to the earth, dead.
The conqueror took possession of
the nest, the female apparently ac
cepting the change as a matter of
course,
