AUSTRALIAN GIRLS
HERE ON VACATION
Social Welfare Students Find
Capital One of World's Most
Beautiful.
Sixteen young woman social welfare
students from Sydney, Australia, head
ed by Miss Aileen Fitzpatrick, their in
structor, passed part of their "Sum
mer" vacation in seeing Washington
today on their way to the Pacific Coast
to sail for home.
"We call this our Summer vacation
because that is just what it is," said
' Miss Fitzpatrick at the Dodge Hotel.
"When we return home next month
it will be the beginning of Winter
for us.
"Our studies in America have con
vinced us that the depression has bene
fited you at last in one respect. It
has awakened Americans to the need
for more advanced social welfare con
ditions. We in Australia long ago
developed our welfare activities. Amer
ica during the period of prosperity
probably felt no necessity for it, but
now you are progressing.
"We came to Washington to play.
» We studied earnestly in Canada and
in the industrial centers of the United
States, but when we arrived in Wash
ington we decided to relax. It is one
of the most beautiful cities in the
world."

Radio Waves Used
For Curing Lame
Muscle and Joints
New Heat Treatment for
Bursitis Announced by
General Electric.
Br the Associated Press.
SCHENECTADY, N. Y„ February
25.—A new use for radio, to cure
lame muscles and joints, was an
nounced today by the General Electric
Co.
The radio waves heat muscles and
Joints and dissolve deposits of calcium,
a hard, limelike substance, which
sometimes gets into the smooth body
"oil" that ordinarily lubricates such
part*.
The ailmen is technically named
bursitis.
The new treatment is another dis
covery of a practical health use for
• radio fever," which is produced by
radio waves passing through the body
and heating it.
The usual broadcast waves do not
cause radio fever. The heating has to
be done by placing the body within a
few inches of very powerful antenna of
special design. It is then possible
to heat a single muscle or joint, or the
entire body.
The first machine for making radio
fever was developed by Dr. Willis R.
Whitney, when he was in charge of re
search for the General Electric Co. It
was given in principle to the medical
profession for experiment, with the re
sult that paresis and some other ills
are now sometimes treated by radio
waves.
Dr. Whitney has since retired, but
Instead of resting, went to work on
further radio fever studies. The treat
ment for bursitis is his first result.

Officers.
By the Associated Press.
SAYRE, Okla., February 25 — I
Fourteen-year-old Jack Campbell
mourned yesterday in the Beckham
County Jail the death of his kindly
minister-father, killed by a shotgun
charge after the lad had been threat
ened with exposure for displaying
pornographic pictures on the streets
of Carter, a small town near here.
"It was easier to kill him than to
face him," UndersherifT K. T. Hen
son quoted the boy as saying.
The Holiness patsor, Rev. Earl
Campbell, was killed in his home after
Press Rogers, Carter City marshal,
had warned Jack he would inform
his father about the pictures.
"Wasn't Doing Right."
"Somebody in Oklahoma City was
sending me the pictures to sell here,"
Hensen said young Campbell told him.
"I guess I wasn't doing right.
"When Mr. Rogers said he was
going to tell. I just couldn't stand
to face father.
"He was very nice to me. He was
my buddy.'
County Attorney Ralph T. Hood said
he would file charges against Jack
today.
Hood said after Rogers reprimanded
the boy, he went home, found his
father absent, and obtained a loaded
small gauge shotgun. He sat down
in the living room and talked with
his grandfather, R. L. Grady.
Slays Father.
Soon the preacher entered the back
door and spoke to the boy's mother.
Jack, shotgun in hand, ran to a bed
room and steadied himself against the
end of the bed.
Hood said his investigations showed
that when the elder Campbell entered
the bed loom, the youth fired at his
father's chest.
The minister sank to the floor.
"Jack, you've killed me," members
of the family quoted him as saying.
He died a moment later.
Weather Car Theft Handicap.
PITTSBURGH OP).—'The Winter's
worst blizzard also brought troubles to
auto thieves. A man stole a car in
downtown Pittsburgh and made off
across a bridge. The machine skidded,
tore through a guard rail and hung
momentarily over a railroad track.
The thief jumped and fled, but the car
finally went on over and tied up rail
traffic for an hour.

AGAINST DOLE CUT
By the Associated Press.
LONDON, February 25.—A proposal
for a one-day general strike in protest

the City Hall square In Hull, clashed
with the police and were dispersed.
Meanwhile, reports persisted, despite
denials of government leaders, that re
organization of the cabinet is immi
nent.

Oilmour, home secretary; Walter
Runciman, president of the Board ol
Trade, and Sir Philip Cunlifle-Lister,
colonial secretary, were admitted to
the House of Lords to create cabinet
vacancies to be filled by new blood.

PRESTIGE OF ALFALFA
RAISED BY DROUGHT
Forage Is Reported to Hav<
Thrived Even After Dry
Scourge of Summer.
URBANA. 111. (>P).—Alfalfa, "queen"
of forage crops, has reached net
heights of popularity because of iti
1934 performance.
The drought of last Summer, whicl
kept the total crop production of Illi
nois down to the lowest figure in 3(
years, seemed to act as a tonic fo:
alfalfa.
L. B. Miller, associate in soil ex
periment fields at the college of ag
! riculture, University of Illinois, saic
the alfalfa crop was practically nor
mal, with some fields yielding more
than the average for the past twe
decades.
Estimates placed more than 375,00(
acres of alfalfa in the State last year
t and on many farms it proved a life
saver for dairy herds.
Reno Redeemed.
Forty-six States, the District o:
Columbia and eight foreign countries
were represented by at least one bridi
or bridegroom in marriage license
issued in Reno during 1934.

ABDUCTS 3 BOYS
Desperado Reported Head
ed West After Escaping
Trap in Texas.
Br the Associated Press.
McKINNEY, Tex., February 25.—
Raymond Hamilton, elusive desperado,
who narrowly escaped death in a police
ambush near here last night, was re
ported fleeing West today with three
abducted farm boys after spending part
of the night at a farm house 3
miles west of Cellna.
The three captives were said by of
ficers to be J. C. Loftlce, 16; Buster
Mayes and J. C. Harlow.
Hamilton's companion In Sunday's
gunfight. and still with him today, was
not definitely identified, but police said
they thought he was a West Dallas
hoodlum.
Reported Wounded.
Hamilton was reported wounded in
the jaw from the barrage laid down
by ambushing officers.
Search through the night for the
killer who fled the Texas prison death
house last Summer and a month ago
escaped from another trap In Dallas
was unavailing. This morning officers
learned that after abandoning the
bullet-riddled car near Weston. Ham
ilton and his companion had held up
Loftlce and driven away in his road
ster to the farm of Bill Mayes, 3 miles
west of Celina, a town 18 miles north
west of McKinney.

At dawn they left, taking with them
Mayes, son of the farmer; Harlow and
Loftice.
The district attorney's office was
advised Hamilton and his companion
were armed with two automatic rifles
and two pistols.
Courage Awaits Squirrels.

Manhattan's Economy Service includes everything—leaves
nothing for you to do at home. How clean the clothes are! How
soft and new they look! That's because they are subjected to the
gentle cleansing action of swishing Palm Olive suds—in soft fil
tered water, of course. Clothes get cleaner without rubbing and
scrubbing because they are all enclosed in net bags while being
washed-*—"the nets get the wear and the clothes get the -wash." That
means longer life for clothes—money saved.
Read the extremely low rates shown in the panel at the right.
Notice that the bigger the wash, the less it costs per pound. A
