FORTY-SEVENTH YEAR, NO. rtfl UN u TODAY - By- Arthur Brisbane (Copyright, 132) Helene of Seattle Poor Kangaroo Baby With Row and Arrow Earth's Greatest News HEARST RANCH, SAN SIM- KON, Calif., Aug. 15-Helen Madison, Madi-son, of Seattle, champion, woman swimmer of the world, is at present, pres-ent, four p. m., swimming and diving in the pool on this ranch. She flew up from Los Angeles this morning with Royal Rroughani and tall young Mr. Schwelcr, uaw the pool and said "I want to .swim." The London omnibus driver tpent his one holiday in the year riding over his own route, beside another bus driver, enjoying the fact that he was not driving. Helene Hel-ene Madison enjoys the fact that she is swimming, but not racing. In training, she is not allowed to dive, for that stiffens the ankles that must be absolutely loose and relaxed, re-laxed, for the crawl stroke. You would travel a long way to see that girl champion swim fifty yards at top speed, or dive, "swan" fashion, and rise with half her body out of water. Mr. Schwegler, young Seattle giant 6 feet i, 210 pounds swam against Miss Madison, and did not win, although he had two seconds start in fifty yards, and she seemed seem-ed not anxious to beat him. It would have delighted any eugenist to see that young couple. Her last raee- of the Olympic did not seem to satisfy Miss Madison. "I could not seem to get going, in the 400 meters," said she. However How-ever she got going well enough to win the race against the .best worn-men worn-men 'swimmers of the world, and set a ew world record. BABY KANGAROOS, born here this spring, are learning how some of our best stock speculators have felt since 1929. At first, the little Kangaroo lives in a pouch on its mother's front, just below the forelegs. As time passes, the baby gets bigger, the pouch does not, and finally the kangaroo baby finds that he can ,no longeV climb into the pouch. His struggles are pathetic, something some-thing like a speculator trying to even up. TWENTY MDLES back in the mountains, two bow and arrow enthusiasts, en-thusiasts, Howard Hill of Alabama and Opalaka Florida, and a young friend are proving that the arrow will do all that bullets can do, by shooting deer, coyotes and other game. The arrow will kill at one hun-i dred and fifty yards- Unlike the rifle, , It makes no noise, does not frighten other deer in the herd, and the stricken deer, ot knowing know-ing when the blow comes, will often of-ten stand, awaiting the second arrow. ar-row. Nothing is more dreadful than killing beautiful inoffensive creatures, crea-tures, but men's lives have depended de-pended on successful kifling, for a million years, and with youth, as with the adults that have never matured, It is useless to protest.

IjJJt' 4 STRIKING FARMERS III BUTTLE Picketing of Stock Yards Leads to Hot Scrap SIOUX CITY, la., Aug. 17 U.R) Police and special deputies dep-uties early today repulsed an attack of 450 striking Iowa farmers on the Sioux City stockyards. Armed with clubs and brickbats the farmers stormed storm-ed the yards after more i'.ian a score of livestock trucks had eluded elud-ed pickets on nine paved highways leading to the city. They were repulsed re-pulsed by 20 deputy sheriffs and 25 city police as they sought to take livestock from pens and from trucks which had run the blockade. block-ade. Deputies, after a day of passive resistance, accompanied many trucks thiough farmers lines during dur-ing the night. They stood on the running boards and swung clubs at strikers who attempted to block their progress. Down muddy side roads and unused un-used by-ways independent farmers smuggled their stock -to market, after a deadlock yesterday in which only six trucks, broke, the strike barriers. Enraged by the show of armed forces wliien they could not fight without similar weapons, the farmers farm-ers assembled in a noisy mob and headed in automobiles for the stockyards, bent on liberating stock bought in defiance of their picket. But police, led by Sheriff John A. Davenport and 80-newly commissioned deputies, repulsed t'ne attack by a show of arms. There was no shooting. Farmers Retreat After more than 20 minutes of bitter wrangling the farmers retreated re-treated and once morei resumed their picketing. Attempts to arbitrate the milk war ended in failure.

The committee also agreed that as a rule flour should be exchanged ex-changed for work whenever possible. pos-sible. The matter of obtaining crushed wheat for stock feed was not finally final-ly determined. Mayor Neil Dahle of Spanish Fork urged that many wage earners throughout the county coun-ty were in need of feed in spite of the bumper crops. Farmers are hiring hir-ing very little labor, even for exchange ex-change of produce, and many small homeowners need assistance to feed a cow or a hog.

According to officers of-ficers of the bank there was $16 deposited for every dollar withdrawn. with-drawn. Criticism Resented Kecent criticism of the state banking department was deplored by J.' A. Malta, examiner of the bank and now acting cashier. The Farmers arid Merchants bank is open and well on its way to normal functioning," said Mr. Malia.

"When local attorneys, presuming presum-ing to represent the stockholders of the new organization, will at this hour criticize without regard to the law or the facts, I am constrained to believe that they are self appointed appoint-ed representatives . for certainly they do not reflect the spirit of the fine group of men with whom I have Worked for the past Cwo months. - l "Even the "smallest of us win pander to headlines, forgetting that headlines' may also be boomerangs..
