VEST FLANS CHEAP 1HNS FOR TOURISTS Chain Would Link Up With Those Now hi East ?j ' ' -t . - San Francisco, Callt A campaign ' fix simple, Inexpenslre Inns, -where " jfOBBg Pple can atop while trayelinf la the west, haa been Urancned by Miss Josephine D. Banrall, director or the San Francisco recreation de partment The chain of ions in the weat would Unk with those already In exlat taca la, the east; where 85 hare been constructed since the Idea was brought Croat Europe. , jXha youth hotels, Miss Randall ex ptalna. already hare been established at II different European , eountrlea. There it Is possible tor young people te trarel widely by bicycle, toot and canoe for six weeks at a total coat at $20. These Inns had their Inception to Germany, but hare now spread te Itt European countries, rrhe Idea was Introduced Into the "United States by Monroe and Isabel 'Smith and has proved a success In the 'east Miss Randall hopes to complete the system throughout the western states. The general plan will always be the same separate dormitories for boys -nd girls, with community kitchens -and recreation halls. ' The hostels provide beds, mattresses, blankets : and cooking utensils. Ther charge MrlSf cents for a night's lodg ing, with S cents to 10 cents added occasionally for fuel. Miss Randall hopes as the first step in her program to have the national park commission construct a "loop" of such hostels over a suitable area that will enable, young travelers to make the entire tour by foot in IS days. With this as a demonstration, she expects to be able to link up not only a complete western but national sys tem of such Inns. Young Teachers Found to Lead in Efficiency Bloomlngton, Ind. The young In structor, fresh and vigorous in his pur suits, holds an advantage over the more experienced professors In Institu tions of higher learning, according te Dean Fernandas Payne, of the Univer sity of Indiana. The opinion Is contained In a new book, "An Open Letter to College Teach ers," which Dean Payne co-authored with Evelyn Spleth Wilkinson, of City college, New York. He cites experiments to show that any differences la efficiency between the young and old instructor are In favor of the former. In one critical analysis, the Instruc tors scored 54.74; assistant professors. 5426; associate professors, 54.15, and professors, 50.13. The same study also compared teachers who had taught frqm one to 11 years with those who had taught more than 11 years. The efficiency score for the first group was 55.68, and for the second 48.82. "Prom whatever angle the approach was made, the difference in favor of the young Instructor persisted," said Dean Payne. "As you would expect, there was a wide range of variation In each group. The poorest and also the best teachers among those studied were young Instructors with two years' experience." Reindeer Meat Favored as Substitute for Beef Seward, ' Alaska. Displacement of beef as a staple food In the northland by Alaska reindeer was seen as a pos sibility, after a meat shipment from the Arctic was delivered to Seward markets by government reindeer serv ice. The meat was of better quality than most venison because the animals were fat and In good condition, and were scientifically butchered. It retailed In Seward at seven cents a pound. The reindeer were originally Imported to Alaska from Siberia for the Eskimos. Critic's Bath Comment Brings Him Libel Suit i Budapest After seeing a score of lightly clad chorus girls In the musical comedy, "Vienna Spring," Ander Vara, dramatic critic of a dally paper, re narked somewhat sardonically In his review that obviously the chorus girls were not aware of the fact Budapest Is famous for Its numerous oaths. Tne 20 girls understood that this broad hint meant that the critic did not Judge them to be too clean and sued the critic for slander and libel Stomach "Dredge" Is New Surgical Device Philadelphia. Surgeons ..may. go "fishing" In human stomachs through a new device perfected by Dr. Gabriel Tucker, professor of bronchoscopy of the University of Pennsylvania medical school. So if you swallow your false teeth, an open safety pin or some thing equally dangerous, Doctor Tucker's new "tackle" ,is ready to be lowered into your stomach and start dredging operations. Declared much simpler than equipment formerly used, the -new invention contains a small pair of pliers at the end of the hollow rubber tube.

LAND FROELEM IS ACUTE IN 4 AREAS Resettlement. Official Says Misery Will Increase; Berkeley, Calif. With virtually no good free land left In the United States far families to settle, the future of the country depends, largely on the eon serration and eonversloa to proper use of vaat tracts that bays bam made useless by abase in the past, be lieves I, a Gray, assistant admin istrator of the resettlement administra tion. , ' '. 1 h - Less than s century ago,' said Gray, "there wart hundreds of thou sands of acres of good land In the public domala arallabls to damns who wanted to stake oat a homestead. Today not only la there scarcely aa acre of such land but countless thou sands of acres that, one were profit able have bOi ruined unless they can be converted to other uses or restored to their original productiveness. Gray cited four great districts In the United States where the misuse of land has not only made it unprofitable but In many cases has reduced the oc cupants to economic misery. Poverty in great portions of the southern Appalachian mountains where living conditions are particularly severe, he said, is the direct result of an unscientific use of land. Forests Rapidly Thinnad. Forests, which formerly provided the chief incotne, were cut off with out any care for the future reproduc tion of trees. the land as a rule is too steep for farming; cultivation only aggravates the problem by encouraging soil ero sion, and with both the forests and top soil gone the standaad of living of the inhabitants ,'has decreased steadily. The old forest regton bordering the Great Lakes, which presents a similar problem; the western plains, where the destruction of forests has elim inated moisture add produced dust storms In recent years, and finally the oft cotton belt of the South, he said, are Instances of the misuse of soil that Is now causing poverty for great por tions of the people. Problem Grows With Year. The situation, he declared, Is even graver for the future than It Is for the present. With an Inevitably In creasing population the nation will re quire more land under cultivation In the future than now. Whenever Industrial depressions oc cur hundreds of thousands will go back to the land as they did during the present one. With no virgin land left and with great sections of the country made profitless by misuse of the land In the past, the problem, he declared, can only be solved by a well-defined gov ernmental policy of soil conversion and conservation. Studies made by the resettlement administration, Gray believes, show that unless all people living off the soil can do so profitably a great bur den of taxation Is thrown on persons la other parts of the country.
