COLD WINTERS BEST « _ FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1937. ——— APPEAL COURT UPHOLDS STATE FUNERAL LAW In a decision handed down by tho District Court of Appeals of the First Appellate Distric:, sitting jin San Francisco, the Funeral Directors law, in so far as it prohibits solicitation of human dead bodies, and in so far as it affords accused licensees due process of law, as constitutional. The case which this decision arose ‘was the case against William P. Drummey, a licensed embalmer, and Wilson and Kratzer, a licensed funeral director, with an establishment‘at Richmond, California, Drummey being the manager of the establishment. The funeral establishment and its manager were accused -and convicted by the board of soliciting a human dead body. From this de-} cision they appealed to the superior . court in. San Francisco and that . court reversed the board’s decision . and ordered the licenses of Wilson . has been upheld in -and Kratzer.and of Drummey fesior. ed. The board thereupon took an ap. peal to the District Court of Appeal . and the decision ! pletely vindicates the board’s action . in finding the defendants guilty and also. upholds the of the Jaw which were vigorously attacked on the appeal. : Whether the petitioners will seek a re-hearing or a hearing before the Supreme Court is not known. If the decision should become final, the funeral establishments of Wilson & Kratzer will its license suspended for a period of one year, with a provisilo that after ten days of said suspension, ,jthe license shall be restored to good standing, but shall be immediately suspended for the remaining portion of the year upon the violation within two years of any of the provisions of the Funeral Directors law. The embalmer’s license of William P. Drummey will be suspended for a period of one year. of. that court-comprovisions have FOR FRUIT GROWERS BERKELEY, Sept. 30.—In some sections south of the Tehachapi the fruit men should pray for cold winters, in spite of the lure of balmy December weather, =iwhile_ certain fruit areas along the coast.in northern California would also profit by colder winter weather. The Agricultural Experiment Station of the University of California finds that in nearly all séctions of (California where fruit is grown extensively, the amount of winter chilling is too small for buds to open as quickly or as evenly as they do in sections with colder winter weather. This delay is not often injurious north of the Tehaehapi, excepting in a few areas near the coast, but in some sections of the southland the story is somewhat different. This study of the effect of winter weather on the opening of buds on deciduous orchard ‘trees and some other plants in California, covered fourteen years* time. It determined that, while the cold winter is genFle . the more or less warm winters, ofien THE CITY 42 8 Hen 7; 6 > ‘ od delayed opening of the buds. due to brings such~ buds ini beyond the frost the opening is’ delayed too long, however, the species that have both flowers and leaves in the buds, may lose some of the flowérs, and the fruit would be affected there-, The coast and valley fogs, which are not always well received by either farm or city. dWellers are revealed as a friend of the frait men. The} amount of fog is important in determining the effectiveness of winter chilling. In sections with much winter fog, trees are less apt to shed their buds unopened or to be too period. greatly delayed in the opening of buds in spring. The study, which is included in ‘Bulletin No. 611 of the College of Agriculture, Berkeley, was made by ‘Professor W. H. Chandler and Professor W. P. Tufts and G: L. Philp of the Experiment Station staff; M. H. ‘Kimiball, speftialist in agyvicultural extension, University of California, and Professor George P. Weldon of the department of pomology, Chaffey Junior College. AMERICA'S RACE INDUSTRY Alaska, the Jand of gold and glaciers, must have been a far sunnier spot in olden times. Dr. Alex Hrdlicka, world famous’ anthropologist, just returned from his ninth trip to seek traces of Barly Man near the fringes of the Arctic zone, announces a startling discovery of a ‘‘race nursery’ in the Far North. His expedition spent most of this summer digging on the Aleutians, that pear] like string of islands which swing south of Alaska in a 1200 mile arc. From their frozen soil, the expedition pried sthe bones and skulls of Lfive distinct racial strains. If further research.confirms the report that Alaska was truly a breeding ground’ of ancient races, America will have another responsibility to shoulder.

The mining industry, even more than most industries, needs the sympathetic understanding and consideration of its problems by the public. It has many peculiar problems—those of taxation, of waste disposal, and stream pollution; of industrial relations. with its ,employees, of the industrial hazards peculiar to mine operations, and comyensationn insurance rates necessary ‘o cover them; of highgrading; of tariffs for protection against foreign competition base metals; of government prices for gold and silver; jf federal aid to prospecting, tailings control, and large scale financing of mineral development; of soil sonservation in the dredging branches, of price regulations under . the Robinson-Patman Aci and similar acts, of freight rates by land and water, and of property rights and land titles under the public lands laws. How many people have any comprehension of these problems and their public importance? I am going to picture to you very briefly what the visitors at the Fair will see if this concept of an approyriate and effective mining exhibit is carried out. As the visitor enters the Hall of the Mineral Empire, he will behold @ mountain extending the entire length of this huge building, and reaching fifty feet in the air. A stream flows along its base, and in the stream floats a huge gold dredge in operation., Along the banks of the stream hydraulic monitors play, washing down the rich gold soil As our visit. or looks up the moutani side, he sees a gold mill in operation, and then, as proceeds along, the exhibit spreads before him on a life-like seale the story of mining in its many phases; a magnesite mine with its ore being hauled to a refinery; a huge open eut copper mine with its shovels in operation; cars being loaded and trains being hauled away, a reproduction of the Messabi iron range, bustling with activity. Throughout the four hundred feet of he { . { { ‘this mountain there will be trains shunting ore, and all equipment will be in operation, so that the visitor will get a graphic picture depicted, not by toys, but by models built to seale, and operated in such a manner as-to give actual demonstrattions of these various operations. This mountain side will occupy approximately one half of the floor space in this building. Moving away from the mountain the visitor will see upon the balance of the floor, the industry in reducing the ore to the finished product. The Hall of the Mineral Empire will not be devotd to static exhibits—rather it will affard the visitor a revelation of mines in operation that could only be gained through weeks and weeks of visiting the many districts represented. Leading into the mountain will. be tunnels through which the _ visitor may go underground. Here he will see true reproduction of actual miny representatives of the mining indus-. ily different.,The layman in, visiting i this exhibit, will at once appreciate . the difference. ‘Grass Valley mines j will drip water, and will show the. ; small high grade veins; while situat. bee onlya few feet away from the; Comstock the change will afford the . . visitor the experience of being trans. . planted into an entirely different . area. And so he will go underground from to mine, seeing gold and the mine j quartz, silver ore, cinnabar, ; baser metallic ores in place and the i methods ‘of mining them. A most important feature will be that of the description of exhibits to the public. FAMILY TRADE OUR APARTMENT FOR RENT — Furnished. Comfortable, convenient.
