AKERS (United Press Chicago, Feb. flour in the bin was a little lower and the coal pile in the basement was a little smaller in the average Chicago em- ploye's home today, and still there was no hope of getting pay for the last six weeks of service. Efforts to sell some $75,000,000 in tax antjcipatlon warrants had failed here, and in New York. Chicago's promise to pay appeared to be poor collateral.

Even if the deals go through, it appeared certain the city and the school board would have to sell at a substantial discount, adding to the mountain of debt that already amounts to some $300,000,000. Heller Offers Ray of Hope "A little better deal" than he obtained when he bought $40,000,000 worth of warrants last year will have to be offered If Herbert C. Heller, New York investment banker, buys again, this year, Indicated before leaving for Kansas City. He is expected to go to New oYrk and then return here- early this week to resume negotiations with the city controller for more than $27,000,000 in warrants. The other possibility of relief in the financial crisis was centered In New York where H.

Wallace Caldwell, president of the board of education, has been attempting to sell some $48,000,000 in similar securities. He, tob, sent word that there seeived to be little chance of selling unless at under par. Interest Mounting Meanwhile the interest on tax anticipation warrants outstanding since May 1, 1929, mounted to tbo new high mark of $8,500,000 and it was estimated that by the time taxes are collected so the city and county can reduce their floating debts, the figure will be $12,000,000.

TO GE1 BACK MIR I'lOST" Washington, Feb. "lost" islands will be reattached to the Philippines by a recent convention between England and the United States fixing the boundary between North Borneo and the Philippine archipelago. "Mislaying islands in the Philippines is easier than it would seem," says a bulletin of the National Geographic Society from its headquarters In Washington, D. "because there are approximately 7,000 islands in the archipelago, distributed over an area equal in length to the distance from Palatka, Florida, to Mackinaw'City, Mich. Longest Span Only One Mile "Taganak, most Important of the seven 'lost' islands, is only a mile long.

Some of the other are merely clumps of trees on small rocks or coral patches. None is inhabited. "Before the Spanish-American War, Spain had made a boundary treaty with Great Britain defining the line between Borneo and the Philippine Islands as nine miles off the Borneo coast. Later came the treaty by which Spain ceded to the United States the Philippine Islands, and this was found to have four errors, the last of "which are being cleared up more than 30 years later. An Island Without a Country "Soon after the treaty was made it was found that Cagayan Islands, of which the principal island has an area of 46 square miles and a population of 250, had been left as an island without a country.

CHARLES LAMB'S BIRTH On Feb. 10, 1775, Charles Lamb, famous English essayist and critic was born In London.

SAYS DAIRYING NOW IS GREATEST INDUSTRY Speaker Points to Great Gain Production Per Cow in thers, nature uncontaminated by civilization is a heritage to be nurtured, improved, and passed on to the generations to follow. put on a 30-acre peony farm just north of Des Plaines, 111., Walter C. Kennicott and his brother Harrison, have a bird commissariat. They not only supply all the winter birds who come to them for the food that the snow and ice hides but they dispense food to the many other workers who have bird shelters and colonies food. Kennicott solicits thousands of loaves of stale bread from the Baker's club of Chicago every week and from the state grain inspector's office come many sacks of sample grain.

Using his own truck and whatever other hauling facilities he can borrow, he gathers this food and carries it out to his farm. Under Walter's leadership, the farm serves as the center for a small army of bird lovers. The Izaak Walton league, the American Legion, the Illinois Business Men's Good Fellowship club, the Boy Scouts, and many other groups, work with him. Following severe, storms and freezing spells, the birds need between three and four tons of bread a week or nearly 8,000 loaves. Ransom, another brother, is chief forester of Cook county.

Walter, when he is not aiding Harrison with the farm, is president of the Asso-j elated Cook county chapter of the! Izaak Walton league and president of the Des Plaines chapter. The farm was patented by their grandfather, John A. Kennicott, in 1834, when it sold for $1.25 an acre. It has been divided and redivided many times since. But the principles of that pioneer country doctor, who came to the northwest when Chicago was an insignificant village have descended from his sons to his grandchildren.

Even in that early day he saw that collective men spelt destruction to natural beauty and life, and became an ardent student of conservation. His fervor burns on in his grandchildren. Urbana, 111., Feb. Within the memory of persons now living, dairying has become America's greatest industry and now produces approximately one-fourth of the country's agricultural wealth, H. Harmon, associate editor of Successful Farming, Des Moines, Iowa, pointed out today before the annual veterinary conference of the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois.

Products of the American dairy cow now have a farm value of more than three billion dollars annually, he said. Veterinarians have a most important mission in this rapidly growing industry, as well as in all other oranches of livestock production, Harmon said. "It is to you," he told the state veterinarians, "to whom we must turn for guidance and help in eliminating present losses and establishing the dairy industry on a high place of prosperty." Predicting a bright future for dairying in the middle west, he said that over a long period of time the country as a whole must place more and more dependence on that tion of the country for its dairy products. Increased efficiency which is probably paralleled by few industries in the country has been made by the dairy industry during the past ten years in the matter of production per cow, the speaker continued During that period, he pointed out production of milk has been increased from 89 billion pounds to about 125 billion from about the same number of cows. This represents an increased efficiency of more than 35 per cent, he explained "All of these changes have beset the present-day dairyman with complex problems.

He has many questions dealing with feeding, breeding management and power equipment which he must meet and solve if he is to keep his place in the procession."

BY RODNEY DUTCHER NBA Service Writer workers have been laid off in about equal proportion with men during the recent spell of unemployment, according to Miss Mary Anderson, the hief of the Women's bureau In the department of labor. The fact means much more would have meant 20 years ago. Today a much larger percentage of American women are the only Dreadwlnners for their family and between 20 and 25 per cent of wage earners in this country are women.

"The Women's Bureau is now in a survey of the recent depression in the radio Industry, especially with regard to its el- fect on working women," says Miss Anderson. Many Women Discharged "Thus far we have checked on 19 plants manufacturing sets and tubes in the New York-New Jersey-Pennsylvania district. These factories at the peak of employment last fall employed 21,000 men and 22,000 women. Now, with employment at a minimum, these same plants are employing 6500 men and 5000 women. "But although we want to find out whether women In Industry are hit harder than men in times of Increased unemployment and these figures Indicate that In these plants in the radio, industry more women have been laid off than men, I do not believe that on the whole there is much difference in the effect upon the sexes.

"Of course, women have suffered most In che so-called 'luxury industries' in which especially "large numbers of women are employed. Radio is one There are also large proportions of women workers in the textile, shoe, cigar and clgaret, clothing and candy factories. Women employed as clerks in stores and as eis have also been affected." Miss Anderson pointed out that the wages of women had become increasingly Important In the support of families. The 1920 Cin- sus showed 8,549,511 women wage earnors, or 20.5 per cent of the total wage earning population, ano the 1930 census is expected to show something of an increase. Miss Agnes L.

Peterson, assist- alcohol," declares "Drinking I do not ant director of the bureau, says women's earnings are the last ine of defense against the wolf afc the door of a large proportion of city families today. Marriage in many cases fails to gain for women the economic security ones considered to be one of its chief advantages. The Women's Bureau made ona study covering 60,000 working and found that more than half of them turned over nil their earnings to the family. In an vestlgation covering 30,000 families in four widely separated cities 27 per cent of the women workers reported that there were no men wage earners in their families and more than 20 per cent claimed to be the sole oreadwinntvs. Among about 17,000 unmarried working women it developed that one in every five was taking care of a family without any help from, male relatives.

The bureau has also devoted attention to what it considers lha Inadequacy of men's wages In many cases. Many women, in every state, it says, are forced to work because their men cannot earn enough to cover the family's bare cost of living. Earnings Below Standard The minimum fair American standard of living cost lor a man, wife and two children, according to the National Industrial Conference Board figures, runs between $31 and $32 a week. In medium- sized cities It's about from $29 to $31 and In small cities from S28 to $30. But the Women's Bureau points out that In few cases can the wage earner count on 52 full weeks of work in a year.

The conference board has reported the average actual weekly earnings of unskilled men in 25 Industries as $24.13. In general, unskilled workers can't maintain a decent standard of living without help from someone else in the family. Skilled workers in the same 25 industries averaged $31 a week. Even with them, it is contended, there Is a constant dread of sickness and unemployment which impels women to go to work This is more than ever true in where wages for skilled workers run below the average, as in the textile industry. Despite the fact that virtually no effort is made by the Mexican government to preserve game, bird and beast alike seem to thrive there.
