Turin, Italy.--The monarch of the Alps, Mount Blanc, Is-to ha ve a motor tunnel Uiat will be about nine or ten miles long. The plan has been put before the ducei* who has approved, without pledging the government in the matter of expense. ' * There have been several schemes in the, past to run a tunnel through Mount Blanc, which would provide a quick and useful new means dT communication between France and Italy and Switzerland. The last project was for a railroad tunnel between the valley of the Avere in France and the valley of Aosta in Italy. - The scheme for a motor road is more practical, though inevitably also very costly. It has this advantage ovar building a railroad track that is needed to construct approach roads. The existence of the tunnel also would constrain the local authorities to build new, or Improve old roads, so as to take advantage of the new communication. . The plan which is likely the work of the SwIsS engineer, Anthony Brori, contemplates a road bored through Mount Blanc which Would run from Champnix on the French side of Mount Blanc to Entreyes on the Italian side. • The tunnel would provide a, joiarvelous encouragement- for winter sports, allowing its votaries to travel to and from between France, Italy and Switzerland quickly and easily to the most suitable sports grounds at any given time of the year. Canadian Indian Tells of Giant in Mountains Montreal.--Evidence that mountain giants are roaming about ranges In the Fraser valley in British Columbia were reported recently with details of a narrow escape from death of an Indian fisherman on the ITarrison river. The Indian was reported gliding along slowly in his canoe when, without warning, a rock was thrown from the top of the cliff, plunging Into the water within a foot of the canoe. The boat was almost swamped. The Indian fisherman was drenched. The startled Indian looked upward and said he saw a huge, hairy man bounding down the cliff side, carrying under his arm another large rock. This the wild man hurled at the canoe, missing the frail craft by inches. On missing the boat a second time the monster swung, his arms wildly and prepared to leap into-the water, the fisherman said. The fisherman slashed his lines and paddled away as fast as lie could. Each Child Has 3 Ages, Cleveland Doctor Finds Cincinnati.--A child has three ages, mental, physical and chronological, Dr. T. Wlngate Todd, professor of anatomy In Western Reserve university, Cleveland, told the Cincinnati Academy of Medicine here recently. Doctor Todd said X-rays provide data for determination of the physical age, while psychological tests are made for the mental age. Under normal conditions the chronological age can be estimated rather certainly by- examination of the bone structures, Doctor Todd pointed out From the anatomical viewpoint, according to the physician, children of six hav«b an Jidult brain and the best nurtured children have such a brain even at four. The brain then awaits only development through education with the child until ten, seeking to learn things through his own efforts rather than through teachings of others, according to Doctor Todd. FIm Tcavd Coat Find Crucifix Believed More Than 300 Years Old Berlin, Wis.--John Marvin, a farmer near here, found a small copper crucifix on his farm where he has lived for 30 years* Because the figure of Christ does not have the head adorned with a crown of thorns, and because the feet are not crossed, it is believed that the crucifix was made before 1630. In accounting for its presence on his farm Marvin surmises that It was burled with a converted Indian by Jesuit priests who freqWfented this part ©f-4he country In the early Seventeenth century., .... . .1 „.

GABBY GERTIE "What a spectacle the old-fashioned heroine must have been when her 'eyes popped out' and her 'lashes fell.'" --r Our. Washington .Letter --" >-By--•..' •>--. National Editorial Aiwdatton Politics and government affairs will undoubtedly go forward under high pressure immediately following President Roosevelt's return to the; White House the latter part of this week. Routine matters, which have been submerged or completely ignored during the absence of the Chief Executive, will again become matters of major importance to partisan propagandists. Only matters of an urgent nature was radioed to the President at sea or sent by ,airplane to pbrts of call. The Congress, which adjourned in June, appropriated approximately 11 billion dollars,'of course, will be spent under Mr. Roosevelt's direction. There were more than 400 laws written in the statutes, and these required official interpretations from Administrative agencies. Clothed witH almost unlimit* ed powers and an enormous pur$e, the President will have little time on his hands for day dreaming when W returns to his official home. Busybodies are, as usual, attempting -to advise the President on the state of the nation and how to run theworld. Presidential secretaries say they were pestered by these types, who sought an opportunity of boarding the Presidents train for the sole purpose of shaking his hand and offering counsel. It required a lot of diplomacy to sort the wheat from thfi time politicians, who threatened tt> time policians, who threatened to crowd out the real worth while leaders, whose/horwst opinions were wanted hy the President. Many haughty politicians along the route taken the President stepped off their highfiorse to write appealing letters begging for interviews with the distinguished visitor en route to Washington. President Roosevelt's return may prove a boon to local hotels because business has been slack of late. Delegations from various communities arc expected in town to appeal direct to the White House for action on relief measures, building -.projects, etc., which have been pending for several months. - . . Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, and his assistants are playing a few trick cards in an effort to save.their agricultural relief program. The l a t est attack is directed to the cigareUc and other manufacturers of tobacco products; This Cabinet officer claims that in 1932 tobacco growers received enly 4 V6 cents of the consumers <V>1- lar, whereas, tobacco -manufacturers received more than 10 cents in the form of profits. Oddly enough Mr. Wallace neglected to mention that the Federal government receives its largest revenue, from the high taxes bn tobacco products. The Cabineteer is strenuously denying that the, drought will force the Agricultural Adjustment Administration to abandon its.: production control management. Pressure of economic „affairs directly due to the drought conditions are, however, forcing Mr. Wallace and his colleagues to accept- monification proposals. abiding to the forces of nature. Professor Tugwell, Under Secretary of Agriculture, has now turned critic. He is fighting back with unexpected vigor against those who oppose the ideas he has written into the New Deal farm policies. Wallace and Tugwell have drafted all available executives from their department and sent them into the field on speech-making tours in an organized effort to give crowds of farmers a first-hand explanation of government activities contemplating adjustments in agriculture. The troublesome question, of settling farm debt cases is now on the gridiron. Committees appointed by governors representing 42 states have been organized for the farm debt adjustment work;' Cooperating with 2,- 400 county committees every effort is. made to save the farm home without resorting to the drastic Frazier-Lemke bankruptcy amendment. Federal judges now have the power to appoint a Conciliation Commissioner in each agricultural county. He attempts to Tvoric out the settlement with a majority of the creditors, both in number and amount. If these negotiations aro successful the work of the Conciliation Commissioner „is made binding on the I . I ' unsecured minority creditors. Thiesft * plans have worked out fairly success*- ;'l : ful ift Wisconsin, Ohio, Missouri*' S Washington, and Mississippi where from 1,000 to 4,000 farm homes hav% ^ been saved by this Voluntary debt conr " filiation work. - '• governmental, industrial and labotf.V tenders are taking sto€k of the unem« ployment problem.
