LOOkOuIs

Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant
secretary of the navy, has written
the following letter to the editor of
the Fleet Review telling of the
needs of binoculars and glasses,
which he terms eyes for the navy
The letter follows
"The navy is still in urgent need
of binoculars, spy-glasses and tele.
scopes. The use of the submarine
has so changed naval warfare that
more "eyes" are needed on every
ship in order that a constant and ef
ficient lookout may be maintained
Sextants and chronometers are also
urgently required.
Heretofore the Unitel States has
been obliged to rely almost entirely
upon foreign countries for its supply
Of such articles. These channels OF
supply are now closed, and as no
stock IS on hand in this country to
moet the present emergency it has
become necessary TO appeal to the
patriotism Of private owners to fur.

before, is demanded and expected for the government and those who are our constituted authorities. This IS no time for the Haunting of social- istic, egotistical, personal opinions or private interests, especially by those who are appointed or elected to fill positions of public trust.
 The general opinion of our people is that the present member of Con- gress from this district is not proper ly representing the district from any standpoint, and that someone else should be sent-one who will give heed to the needs of the district and the voice of it's people. I am honest in believing that my wide acquaiat- ance with all labor and industry, and my general knowledge of the district and the needs of all it's people, fit me as man to represent you in Con- gress.
 To this end I am offering myself for this position, and ask you to vote for me as a man who will be making
 
 a sacrifice of his personal and do- mestic interests, who will be giving up much in order to serve you, who is not asking for the job for the money that is in it, who will give his time and his life, if need be, in hearty, patriotic support to every move of his government. My soul thrills at every prospect of doing and giving my all in helping my country to vict9ay in, tl.is terrible war, victory that will mean freedom to mankind from ev- cry form of oppression and bring ev- cry human being to knowledge 0f God and His mercies, and pf the rights of all nations, of every people and of our individual responsibility to each other.

Toole and George Preiss, were con- victed of violating the prohibition. laws by Judge A. B. Foster after he had declined to give them the privi- lege of trials by jury. Judge Foster ruled that they had forfeited their rights. The defendants contended that law enacted after the prohibition law provided that demands for jury trials could be made at any time with ill 30 days. but the appellate court ruled that the enactment of this later law did not imply the repeal of the section of the prohibition law requir- ing demand within five days.
 The appellate court reversed it's decision in the case of Lee Cowart, former commissioner of immigration, and granted him new trial on charge of embezzlement Its action was in compliance with an order of the supreme court last week. which said the lower court did not properly define the law in it's charge Cowart is charged with embedding funds which came into his possession by vir- tue of his official position during the administration of Governor ONeal.
