WASHINGTON. D. C (SpU Brit
ish and French diplomats arriving in
Stresa. Italy, on April Hth to confer
with Premier Mussolini about Oer-1
man reaimament. were welcomed by,
a brand new town. The Italian lead- !
er had ordered the little city renovat- 1
ed. It railway station rebuilt, and Its
main street paved In honor of the
occasion.
Stresa ha about 2000 lnh&bttante.
It rises from the western shore of
Lake Magglore about three miles
couth of Pnllanza.
"Lake Magglore seems a lodestone
for conferences," says a bulletin from
the Waehlnt-ton. D. C. headquarters
nf the National Geographic society.
"Ten years at;o representatives of the
chief countries engaged In the World
war met In a town at the Swiss end
of this same lnke to draw up the
famous Pact of Locarno.
Favorite Itullan Summer Resort
"Located almost 700 feet above ea
level, at a particularly breezy place
on the lake, Stresa is cooler in sum
mer than most of the nearby villages.
Railway trains and steamers bring
throngs of travelers to rest In Its
palatial hotels and villas, to listen to
band concerts, and to stroll along
the quay, watching regattas and fish
ing boats. The lapping of sunny water
on stone, and the rhythmic dip of
oars, mark the tranquil tempo of ex
istence in Stresa.
"Anions Stresa's attractions for
tourists is a cogwheel railway leading
up the graspy slopes of nearby Mt.
Mottarone. From the mountain top,
4892 feet above sea level, can be seen
eplendid vistas of snow-capped Alps,
and at least six lakes. On clear days,
the cathedral of Milan looms up out
of the Lombard y plain.
"Along the lake shore south of
Stresa. small villages cluster around
tiny harbors: vine-clad villas are
spilled like pink, blue, white or yellow
mints in the midst of gardens blazing
with color.
"Lake Maggiore. with an area of
about 82 square miles. Is Italy's sec
ond largest lnke. The tipper fifth of
It lies in Switzerland, the remaining
four-fifths in Italy. At the north
end of the lake, into which pour
floods of melted snow and ice from
the Alps, the water Is green. Toward
the south, the lake becomes bluer,
until, in the roadstead of Stress,
skimmed by fishing boats and row
hoats arched over with gay awnings.
the water Is turquoise and sapphire.
W here Nnpoleon shed Worries
"Like four emeralds set In the blue,
the Barromean Islnnds rise from Lake
V-aggiore near Stresa. They are
named for the noble, ancient Borro
meo family, to which three of them
have belonged for centuries. Isola
San Giovanni, nearest the mainland,
is the smallest. Isola Madre, the lar
gest, was the first of these Islands
to be planted with luxurious vegeta
tion by the Counts of Borromeo.
Today, its villa crowns a garden ris
ing up in five terraces, where white
peacocks wander among orange and
lemon trees.
"Most famous of the Islands la
Isola Beltila. within easy rowing dis
tance of Stresa. Until 1650 the
island, except for a few buildings, was
a barren rock. To Count Vltallano
Borromeo, artist as well as warrior
and diplomat, goes the credit of con
verting it Into a world -renowned
beauty ?pot. In soil brought from
the mainland, he planted an amazing
array of subtropical trees and flow
ers, creating a garden of ten terraces.
The lowest rests on piles driven In
. the lake bottom. The highest rises
100 feet above the lake.
"In spite of their 'enraged rococo"
style, the opulent gardens, hung be
tween blue water and bluer sky, pos
sess a charm that draws throngs of
visitors annually. Isola Bella has been
praised by Dumas and Wagner. Wear
ied by cares of state. Napoleon fled
here to rest and enjoy family life.
Down paths where Napoleon strolled
with Josephine, tourists now wander
from terrace to terrace, among fra
grant cedars and magnolias, cork and
camphor trees Stately cypesses form
a backdrop for blosslming oleanders
and, camellias, orange and lemon
trees, and exotic plimts.

"Owned not by noblemen, but by
fisher folk, and lacking both palace

the four Borromean islands. Yet it Is
possibly the most picturesque. Its
quaint, medieval-iooking village, al
most covering the island, Is a Mecca
for many water-colorists. Houses with
brownish-red roofs, and with gerani
ums and carnations bunched on their
wooden balconies, crowd each other

staircases, women sit gossiping in the j

blesses them, saying 'Be fruitful,

PAROLE SYSTEM
MARSHFIELD, Ore.. April 12 (AP)
Far from retreating from his posi
tion, Circuit Judge James T. Brand,
president of the Oregon Bar asso
ciation, today reiterated his state
ment that Oregon has not so much
as a "plausible pretense" of a proper
system of supervision of paroled
convicts.
Dan Kellaher of Portland, state
parole officer, had written Judge
Brand demanding a retraction of
criticism the Coos bay Jurist had
made of the Oregon parole system
at a recent crime conference in Port
land.
In response. Judge Brand declared
he had not attacked Kellaher or any
other state official but simply had
pointed out what he described as
defects under which courts in Ore
gon are required to operate, and that
he had criticized Injudicial methods
of pardoning exercised by certain
governors of Oregon In the past 12
years.
In his reply to Kellaher Judge
Brand cited figures to show that
many pardoned convicts have served
from one to seven additional terms
in prison and that of 308 pardoned
In Oregon in the past 12 years. 48
have served time since the original
release.
Regarding the supervision of par
oled men. Judge Brand said the
state parole officer has far to much
to do In taking care of 591 es-con-vlcts
since the federal government
statistics have proven that 60 . men
are all that can be adequately hand
led by one officer.

EH PRICES' rTvJ
NEW YORK, April 13. fAPi The
bull market in silver metal rolled
merrily a'ong in the world's princi
pal markets todny.
In the New York free market, the
! price of silver bullion Jumped
, cents an ounce to 684 eent. the
highest price since July, 1986.
This waa preceded by a similar
rise in London, which carried the
! price there to the New York equiva
lent of 68 43 cents an ounce.
Today's rise narrowed the margin
between the world price and the
new price of 71.11 cent which the
treasury is paying American mines
for newly produced metal.
It was assumed in silver circles
that as soon as the treasury's price
la equalled by the world price, the
treasury will make another boost.
At today's level, the metal was
nearly triple Its depression low of
34 cents, touched in 1932.
The further rise In prices was said
to have been Inspired in part by the
assertion of 8enator Plttman, veteran
leader of the sliver bloc, yesterday,
that President Roosevelt proposes to
lift the price in orderly fashion to
its old statutory level of 9139 an
ounce.
If the world price of silver gets
to that level. It will be the first
time in over half a century, with
the exception or the 1919-20 post
war inflation period.

results were so favorable that It Is

The report was made by R. C.
Major and H. P. Doub of the Henry
Ford hospital, Detroit. The fever was
given there in an air-conditioned
chamber by Charles F. Kettering,
automobile scientist.
Unlike most of the new apparatus
for raising body temperature to fever
height, this fettering chamber uses
no radio waves. It causes the fever
by air heated elertrlcally to temper
atures of 160 to 170 degrees In a
humidity of 35 to 60 degrees. The
animals stand this excessive heat
without too much discomfort and
apparently human beings are cap
able of doing likewise.
The heat raises the body temper
atures of the animals to fevers rang
ing from 105 to 107 dogroes. Heat
treatment lasts four to five hours.
The treatments are well spaced and
the greater number given so far
have been half a dozen spread over
a period of three months.
