on Thompson's dismissal at the police
station. THE sergeant wouldn't book

The sergeant himself, S. E. Poaha,
was the next witness and he gave
some testimony showing the wide
range of latitude allowed police sta

He said Branco had reported Thomp-
son for driving while under the in
fluence of liquor, but that he had
exercised judgment" in not booking
him. He said the sheriff gave him
the power TO- do this. He admitted
that Branco said the man ought to be
locked up and he said further that
he himself considered Thompson UNI
fit to drive his car that night.

Thompson Defends Himself
The afternocS session was featured
by the presence of Thompson in the

Thompson took the stand to deny
emphatically every statement made to
his discredit previously before the

long, almost plaintiye harangues into
his manner of conducting saloon and
finally to intimate that bartenders
who had testified against him had
been dishonest while in his employ

license commissioners. James E..
Thompson, proprietor of the bar. is
charged with law violations which
may result in his losing his license.
and that was the primary purpose CT
the hearing, but evidence for and
against Thompson was only part OF
the developments.
Corroborated testimony by police
officers showed that Thompson had
been arrested for driving his auto
while under the influence Of liquor

that the arresting officer had tried to
have him booked on this charge, but
that the SCI geant at the desk had re-

COL UMBIA PROTESTS
NICARAGUA CANAL ROUTE

(Assoeiated Press by Federal wireless)
WASHINGTON, D.. c., Nov. 2.-The
Republic of Columbia, through its min
lister, Senior Don Julio Betanconrt. has
formally protested against the route
Of the proposed Nicaraguan canal, as
outlined in the treaty between the
United States and Nicaragua.
The point of contention is that
through Nicaragua undertaking to
give the United States a lease for 90
years of the islands of Great Corn and
Little Corn the sovereignty of Column
bia over these islands is denied by
implication.
Columbia desires to reaffirm her
ownership Of these islands, which are
of no value to the United States in
the matter of the Nicaraguan canal
except for their strategic location.
They are only 10 miles off the coast
and, if fortified. would be under some
circumstances a menace to the coun,
try which owns them.

local points of interest were cleverly
woven in. The play was called "Neda

One can get so much more out of

in the scene of the struggle on
