PAGE EIGHT - DEAD SPIDER MENAGE GIVEN (Continued from Pago One) the deadly spider and presented literature suggesting methods of control. Telegrams were received from publlo health officers and laboratories on the coast urging vigilance and publlo education to ' eliminate the possibilities ot serl- ens consequences from spider bites. , Publicity Recommended t Although the council took no formal action, it recommended im mediate publicity to the dangers. Sr. Soule was Instructed to eon tact entomologists to learn the most effective methods of destroy ing the new found pest. Officials and residents pointed ("out that the most serious Infesta tion had been found in the Hot ' Springs districts where the ground was warm and apparently condu cive to the growth of the spider. It was reported that both spiders ' and nests hod been found in rock gardens, drains, sewers, old cans nd, in one Instance, in a garage. There was some discussion of '"ordering the fire department to burn off grass and weeds but no ' formal approval was given. Per sons, however, who bad found the apiders were urged to spray with heavy oil, kerosene or some other effective solution, the more pen etrating the better. ' Communications Read f Telegraphic communications re garding the spider were received rfrom Dr. K. F. Meyer of San Fran cisco, the Cutter Laboratories ot Berkeley Dr. J. C. Gelger ot San I Francisco and Dr. F. D. Strieker, Oregon state health officer. Dr. Strieker's telegram was as follows: . "Bltea ot genus latrodectus 'mactans may cause alarming symptoms seldom fatal. Small ' spider with yellowish spots, somo- . times red. No treatment except blood of recovered person. Have , advised U. S. department of en- I tomology." 1 Bltea Often Fatal In connection with this, Dr. Soulo pointed out that the bite i was often fatal and cited instances 1 of its dangers. Dr. Geigeiy San Francisco tealth officer, said: "Field con Col measures practically impos- ' sible. Urge education ot public as to dangers." i It is possible a representative lot the entomology service might be sent to Klamath Falls to in- VBSllfcO-M. The council was sirpns iu ...tinn that citizens make an effort to clean up their i Yards and Dasemeuw m ......... 0t f ort to remove the spiders. HEDiCS EXPERIMENT RB- r . CALLED r TJNIVEESITL, Ala.. May 29, f-tja The plight of Dr. William 'Erkenbeck, 64, Idaho physician, recalled the experiment made , . i ... Vmramhpr bv Dr. Alan W Blair, 38, University of Ala " bama Medical school faculty member, who purposely let a ''Black Widow" spider bite him I to determine the effect on human ' 'Dr.SBlalr had made study of the insects several months, watch ing the effect ot their bites on mice, rats, guinea pigs, and oth er small animals, and injecting the venom hypodermically. The results still left the ques tion in Dr. Blair's mind as to whether the venom was poison bus to human beings. After keeping a specimen for ten days, he let the glossy, black, red-spotted spider bite his ' left little finger. . Then he recorded his symp toms. The bite was followed by s stinging sensation. Pain rap idly followed in his hand, then the forearm, and up to the arm pit. .- . . The pain in the arm was fol lowed tty cramps in the abdomen. diszinesB and sub-normal blood pressure. Dr. Blair refused treat ment until the effect on the heart muscles had been recorded on the electrolcardlo-graphle table. He then went to bed and his pain was relieved by opiates. For two days he was unable to eat, but after three days his strength began to return, and to day he is hale and hearty. But a question still remains: Does the bite of the spider im munise the person bitten?

Sacramento Girl Discovered Dead (Continued from Page One) the state treasurer, who was found dead in a garage here last night had not been criminally attacked. He said the autopsy showed burns only were account able for her death. The surgeon said he found no skull injuries that would indi cate violence other than an old lesion, and that a study ot the girl's mouth, nose and lungs in dicated that she lay on her right side and breathed in flames for some time before she died. "So far as the examination has gone," Bald the surgeon, "I would say that burns only were accountable for the death. No poison was found in the Btomach as far as could be determined by the preliminary examination." The surgeon refused to say whether he considered it a case ot murder or suicide. He did say, however, that it was ap parent the girl was alive when she was burned. Leslie Cox, superintendent of police bureau of ihdentification, said tbe fingerprints on the ker osene bottle found near the body "resembled" those of the girl's.. He said he would have the state bureau ot Identification study the prints - before an nouncing definitely tnat tne prints are hers. Mrs. Claire Fitzgerald, Miss Johnson's sister, declared that Virginia had been slightly nerv ous for a couple of days and that without the knowledge of the family Virginia had at 2 o'clock yesterday morning called In Dr. H.

TWO AUTOMOBILE Two minor automobile accl dents were reported to police bu reau Monday. A collision be tween machines driven by Gur- don W. Graves ot this city, and Fred L. Cochran of Kono, i curred between the junction ot the Greensprlngs and old Keno road, and the Klamath View auto camp. Minor damages were reported. Shortly after 3:00 o'clock Monday afternoon a large sedan believed to have been driven by D. O. Castel, and registered to Ha mm Crawford, crashed into a telephone pole at the corner of Oregon avenue and Delta streets. Although the driver could not be located when traffic officers ar rived to investigate the accident. it was learned that he had sus tained only minor Injuries. Both Crawford and Castel are connected with the Altamont dance hall. Russia Advocates Entire Abolition of War Machinery (Continued from Page One) help materially, economically, fi nancially, or otherwise." New Guarantees A.sked LItvinoff also proposed a uni versal or European pact of secur ity supplemented by regional asireemeuts of mutual assistance. The commissar asked whether it would not be honest and cour ageous to realize that political events In certain countries dur ing recent years do not permit the conference to conclude a treaty. He said, however, that Russia believes the conference should concentrate on the establishment of additional guarantees ot peace or on Increased measures of se curity for nations without nour ishing aggressive designs. He argued that such additional security measured would not re quire unanimity of nations. "The conference," he declared, should strive to rally all states. Nevertheless, if there are dis sidents, this should not be per mitted to prevent others from tightening the links which bind them." Davis, American ambassador-at-large, told the nations of the world that the United States Is willing to join them "In a sub stantial and proportionate reduc tion of naval tonnage" and Is likewise willing to join an Inter national agreement regulating sales of war materials. His declarations were made at the opening of the International disarmament congress, attended by representatives of the leading powers. . ..
