reached the Valley. It was seized
and destroyed.
But what became of about 100
other small lots of Florida oranges
and grapefruit?
* • •
Valley people should take some
action to find the correct answer
to that question.
There is no assurance that fruit
was not infested.
One in fested fruit might give the
dread pest a foothold in Texas.
And whether all of this frui tever
is found and destroyed something
should be done to see that Texas
ports are closed to Florida fruit.
Commissioner of agriculture was
informed of the facts in a telegram
sent out by Ramsey.

One Killed Many
Injured As Ancient
Engine Overturns
MOUNT WASHINGTON N. H.
July 20.—(JP)—One man was killed
four others were injured and a
party of 200 including governors
of several states were marooned on
the mountain here tonight when
“Old Peppersass.” the original
Mount Washington cog railway en-
gine overturned.
. Governors who were present at

engine today were Bibb Graves
Alabama; John Hamlin Iowa;
Theodore Christianson Minnesota;
Henry C. Caulfield Missouri!
George H. Dern Utah; John E.
Weeks Vermont; William G. Con-
ley West Virginia and Lieutenant
Governor C. 6. Storms Oklahoma.
It was said the engine left the
tracks when a wheel broke as it
reached the top of Jacob's ladder
half way down the mountain. The
tracks were ripped for considerable
distance.
The accident happened midway
on the descent. Persons at the bot-
tom of the mountain said the man
killed was the official photographer
for the Boston and Maine railroad
and the injured included E. C.
Frost of Concord who was at the
controls when the engine made its
first climb of the mountain in

ward H. Mason of New Hampshire

and government as an act of war.”
French consular officials at
Shanghai said they had a report
from the French consul at Harbin
that Russian troops had crossed the
frontier at the eastern end of the
Chinese eastern railway.
A similar Harbin report to the
Japanese newspaper Asahi was of-
ficially denied by Moscow. Direct
Japanese reports from Manchuli
Manchuria the scene of action de-
clared the news Incorrect.
Anouncement that the nationalist
government had severed relations
with Rusisa on Friday came in a
delayed dispatch from Nanking.
Meanwhile Moscow reported from
all over the soviet union a rush of
recruits to the Red army. Chinese
reinforcements were concentrated
along the Siberian - Manchurian
frontier.
NANKINO. China. July 179.—
('Delayed'*—The state council of the
nationalist government tonight de-
cided to sever all relations with
Russia and diplomatic officials will
be requested to leave China. The
nationalist government has request-
ed Germany to take over direction
of Chinese affairs in Russia since all
Chinese diplomatic officials will be
withdrawn.
The council drew up a proclama-
tion explaining China’s position of
China in the present crisis. It will
be mad** .public after signature by
the presidents of the five Yuans.
Although the text has not vet
been released it. was understood that
it would say that since China and
Russia signed the Kellogg pact for
outlawry of war China had been
forced to take peaceful .means to
terminate Russian propaganda in
Manchuria. It was expected also
to say that Russia had moved to
interrupt International communica-
tions between the two countrips and
that it war becomes inevitable the
responsibility can rest solelv on the
Russians despite their sierdfvin?
their agreement with the Kellogg
pact.

state department of agriculture
Ramsey said:
‘‘Clyde-Mallorv steamship lines
steamer Algonquin sailed New York
July 8 and spent July 9 at Miami
Florida. Passengers were allowed
to go ashore purchased oranges and
grapefruit in large quantities and
fruit was offered for sale on board
ship at Miami and after leaving
Miami. Ship docked at Galveston
July 12. Approximately 100 passen-
gers disembarked there and were
allowed to bring fruit into Texas
with no warning and no investiga-
tion. Most passengers ignorant and
innocent that they might be bring-
ing the Mediterranean fruit fly into
this state. They were allowed to
scatter in every direction. Some of
this fruit was brought into the Rio
Grande Valley by one passenger
under above conditions. This fruit
has been destroyed. Very apparent
the fruit and vegetable industry in
the entire state of Texas has no de-
fense from the Mediterranean fly
as far as port of Galveston is con-
cerned. No investigation made of
other Texas gulf ports. Please wire
if any restrictions in effect relative
entrance Florida citrus fruit
through our gulf ports. We suggest
all passengers aboard above boat be
traced and fruit brought in by them
be promptly destroyed and steps
taken to prevent furthre occur-
rence."

Fruit Fly Problem
Affecting Florida

Buried deep in work at the end of
its first week the federal farm
board passed up the half holiday
enjoyed by other government work-
ers to go ahead with its task of or-
ganization.
The Florida fruit emergency
caused by the fruit fly was the first
and only specific proposition to gain
the attention of the board. The
Floridians were told to get all state
agencies together on the question
of relief for marketing anti to re-
appear Monday.
Pending further consideration cf
the Florida situation the board
tackled again its problem of deter-
mining a general policy for the up-
lift of aerlculture and for holding
the $150000 000 at its disposal for
loans.

the many littla businesses that arise in every day life.
These people aren’t regular day after day advertisers

logy involved in the writing of a Want Ad to get the
most “pulling power”—we call it—out of every word
in their message. -■ *■
