KEY 10 HISTORY
OF CRATER LAKE

CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK,
Ore. (Specull-eologlcal tudy
In Crater Lane Notional Park baa Just
. brought forth a new feature which
may prove to be one of the moat Im
portant keya In deciphering the his
tory of Crater Lake.
Raneer Naturalist Warren D.
Smith, also professor of geology at the
University of Oregon, and David T
Griggs, geologist, of Harvard univer
sity, announce the discovery of many
old fumarole vents In the great tuff
deposits which fill the valleys radiat
ing from the rim of Crater lake.
In recent years geologists have
come to believe that these tuffs rep-

cent ash and other fragmenta erupt
ed from tne top 01 om o.
ancestral mountain of Crater lake.
h flowed down its val
leys filling them to a depth of sev-I
erai nunuicu
That these flows were hot Is
shown by the fact that In many
places trees overwhelmed by this ma
terial were found during the past two
or three yeara turned into charcoal.
Now It Is found that the top of these
deposits Is apparently honeylcombe
here and there with small conical
caverns and tubular openings out of
which steam and other gases issued.
As the top of tlie gray tuff deposit
Is hidden by a bed of pumice, 10 to 15
feet thick, they are not -easily seen
except from within the rim of
Wheeler Creek canyon In which the
present discovery was made. Their
position Is marked by a band of red
dish tuff (due to oxidation) Just be
neath the light pumice valley filling.
It Is quite probable. Judging from
the number of these fumaroles with
in the small area studied that when
.' the top of Mazama was destroyed,
forming the gigantic crater now filled
by Crater lake, these deposits were
' dotted with thoussnds of these
smoking fumaroles. similar to the
region In Alaska known as the Valley

WASHINGTON. Aug. 29 (AP)
The treasury today reported Its iirat
failure In history to sell an al
lotted amount of unconditionally
guaranteed securities.
Only 85.592.000 of tenders were
received for an offering of $100.
000.000 of four-year" 14 per cent
bonds for the federal farm mortgage
corporation.
"It wasn't so good." commented
Secretary Morgenthau, declining to
discuss the possible causes.
Other treasury officials) who would
not be quoted by name, said the
Issue was badly timed, coming in
the middle of a bearish government
market.
KING AT WHEEL
WHEN AUTO HITS
ROADSIDE TREE
(Continued from t-age One)
off a country road and hit a tree.
She died within live minutes in
her king s arms and with his Hps on
hers.
The king was only slightly injured.
The couple's chauffeur, who was rid
ing In the rear seat while his master
drove, suffered broken leg and pos
sible internal Injuries. Physicians,
said he might die.
Attendants See Mishap
Attendants who followed In another
car said they saw their monarch turn
his head for an instant, apparently
admiring the mountain scenery, as
he drove at a rate of between 50 and
55 miles an hour along the sunny
road beside the lake called "Vler
Waldstatter See."
The touring car swung to the side
of the road, hit an eight-inch curb,
and rammed Into a, tree, then rolled
Into the shallow lake just eight feet
from the road.
All three of the occupants were
thrown out.
The queen was thrown against an-
other tree, fracturing her skull. The
king's face was cut by the smashing
windshield. Momentarily stunned, he
picked himself up and went to the
side of the Swedish princess he mar
ried nearly nine years ago.
Gives Dying Kiss
Leopold held Astrid In his arms,
kissed her again and again, and
begged her to apeak to htm. She
barely moved. It was Impossible to
tell whether she recognized him.
The cure of a village church Just
outside Kussnacht came to them. He
administered extreme unction.
Then, as the king held her close,
Aetrtd died.
The king himself straightened her
body and smoothed her clothes.
The royal attendants, a gentleman -and-lady-ln-waltlng,
and the chau
feur of the car In which they had
been riding, covered the still form
with their coats.
The accident occurred at 9:15 a. ra.
King Injured
The full extent of the king's In
juries were not immediately deter
mined. A physician said he feared
Leopold's Jaw might be fractured.
The doctor stated that, in any
case the Jaw would account for the
king's Inability to explain the cause
of the accident himself.
The 33-year-old king's grief over
the death of his wife was such that
none presumed to question him fur
ther. Peasanta nearby Immediately tele
phoned to Kussnacht for help. A doc
tor arrived within five minutes after
the queen had died.
Leopold kissed the dead Astrid once
more, then waa taken away In the
doctor's car to have his wounds
dressed- Afterward he waa taken to
the Villa H al l horn to which the
queen's body later was taken In an
other car.
After her king had gone. Astrld's
body lay beside the fatal tree. Still
covered with the coats, it was
watched for a full hour by the bare
headed members of the household,
peasants, villagers and gendarmes.
Then It waa removed by an under
taker. Chauffeur May Die
The chauffeur, originally reported
as only slightly hurt In the craah, waa
later found to be In a serious condi
tion and physicians said they feared
he might die.
Kusnacht is a popular resort which
stands at the head of a small bay of
the lake "Vler Waldsatatter See," near
the spot where the legendary William
Tell waa reputed to have shot the
tyrant Oeasler.
At the villa the reception room waa
cleared and the queen's body. In Its
casket, was placed on black-draped
trestles. Candles were arranged and
the members of the household took
up the death watch.
The king, suffering not only emo
tional shock but cuts and bruises,
wss ordered by Dr. Steinegger, and
physician who had rendered him first
aid, to go to bed.
Doctors found the chauffeur's legs
were broken and that he was badly
bruised, possibly internally.
A further Investigation at the scene
of the accident showed that a large
stone at the roadside may have been
t.h ran.. Whin the It in looked UD
at the scenery, the car turned to the
edge of the road, striking the stone, j
It wss believed probable that the I
Impact was so violent the occupants I
were thrown out. ,
At the spot the road la only eight
feet from the lake, and the car ran
down a slight grade on the water.

John ('Three Fingered Jack') Ham

Ten days later, the agents testified.

TIMELY
AUTOMOBILE accidents increase sharply each
XX year as the autumn months approach. It is
timely to urge extra care in operating cars, extra
caution in crossing streets and walking on high
ways. September and December, each with five Sun
days and a holiday, are likely to be the most
dangerous months of the year, with October and
November showing up nearly as badly.
The record of last year was disastrous, for
954,000 persons were injured and 36,000 were
killed. This year's record is nearly as bad so far.
Drive carefully.
Walk cautiously.
Take time to be safe.
k minute saved at the cost of a life is no bargain.
