The Jamestown Alert, the indepen-

has bought a new linotype, large
press and other equipment and at the
same time are increasing their facili-
ties for turning out first class work
Speaking of the purchase the Alert
says: with the new equipment the
Alert will be in position to. keep
abreast of the growth of jamestown
and Stutsman county, and be able to
assist in spreading the advantages Of
the city, county and state to the out
side world in a greater degree than
ever before. A heavy money outlay
has been necessary for these i'm
provements. The increased costs of
publishing a newspaper are we'll
known, and the continued support
of the business men and residents
of the city and county is solicited for
this enlarged newspaper enterprise"
We are glad to note this progress on
the part of the publishers of that pa

The presidents inquiry contained in letter sent
out from the White House. The letter follows:
my dear sir:
In the New York Times of Sunday October II, 1920
find dispatch dated ST. Louis October 49, which purports
to report certain uterances Of yours In it the fol-
lowing: 9#
Replying to criticisms of his proposal for associa
ton Of nations he said in platform speech at Green
Castle Indiana that he already had been approached in
formally by representative of France who asked that the
U. S. lead the way world fraternity
II write to ask if this Isl correct quotation and if you
really said what is therein accredited to you. need not
point you the grave and extraordinary differences to be
drawn from such statement that the government Of
France which is member Of the league Of nations ap-
proach private citizen Of nation which is not member
Of the league with the request that the u S. lead the world
fraternity The department Of state has always found the
government Of France most honoraby of it's inter-
national obligations and careful to observe all the pro-
preties of international intercourse hesitate therefore
to draw the inference to which have referred unless
sured by you that you actually made the statement
Very truly yours,

The letter to Harding was given out without COM

correctly quoted there might be another letter from

DOUBLE WIN
FOR SAMMIES
Americans Making Good
In the Davis Tennis Cup
Series

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, Dec.
31.-American tennis players yes
terday scored a double triumph
over the greatest Australian net
stars and hold the position Of ia
vorites in the tournament for tho
Davis Cup, the historic champion
ship trophy Of the tennis world.
William T. T1den Fl, OF Phila-
delphia, battered down Norman E.
Brookes, captain of the Antipodan
team, while William T. Johnston,
OF San Francisco virtually smoth-
cred Gerald L. Patterson, the bril-
liant young star who won the Eng
lish championship from his team
mate, Brookes, in 1919.
The Americans need only one
match to win the cup. The scores
of the matches follow. Tilden de-
feated Brookes 1913, ga, 1-6 and
ga; Johnston defeated Patterson,
6-3, 81 and 6-1.
Brookes and Patterson have q
chance to partially redeem their
position tomorrow In the doubles
against Tilden and Johnston, and
there are many who believe they
are capable Of gaining a trifle In
the tournament, being rated as
the greatest double players on the
courts today. The way Tilden and
Johnston ripped their way through
the defenses Of the Australians In
today's contests, however, gave
supporters Of the Americans rea-
son to believe that Brookes and
Patterson must play super tennis
to win even momentary respite
from defeat IN the tournament
The final singles matches will be
played on Saturday.
