 The radio controlled baqtleship Iowa will be used in the second test, which will consist of searching out the battleshfp and bombing her from air. The army will withdraw from this phase of operations all of its land planes using only the seven seaplanes it had obtained from the navy department and four airships or blimps.
 Other operations will be conducted against the former German destroy CTS, the former German cruiser Frankfurt and the Ostfriesland

 Of Chief Justice
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-The death of Chief Justice White was considered only a matter of hours by physicians tonight. Hope for his re- covery from complications that de- veloped after an operation for blad- der trouble was abandoned last night. It was said that only his vitality had enabled him to live through today.
 The last rites of the Roman Catho- lie church were administered when he revived from a state of coma, but he soon lapsed into inconsistencies again.
 The doctors issued the following bulletin today:
 Chief Justice White was operated upon on Friday last. Although in a serious condition for some months past. he postponed the operation as he felt his presence at the court was imperative. The progress was satis- factory with normal pulse and tenn perature until Tuesday afternoon, when acute dilation of the heart oc- cured. He has not rallied from this condition and his recovery is not ex- pected.

 At the bedside were Mrs. White and other close relatives, while dur ing the day and evening attaches of the supreme court and others went to the hospital to inquire as to his condition. Associate justices were among those who called.

TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wirel

PRESCOTT. Ariz.. May 1S.-Mrs. Anna Irene Hopkins was sane and in full possession of her faculties on March 3I last when she is alleged to have thrown acid into the face of Miss Lucille Gallabher at Jerome, AriZ., according to pr. Win Wyle or Phoenix. who testified at the trial or Mrs. Hopkins here this afternoon.
 Dr. Wylie was called, by the state as a rebuttal witness to refute tes- timony by defense witnesses intend- ed to establish the insanity of the defendant. The defense offered no testimony in rebuttal and Dr. Wylie was the last witness called Argu- ments will be made tomorrow and, by agreement of attorneys, will be limited to two hours for each side, so that the case probably will reach the jury by noon tomorrow.
 Dr. Wylie testified that the acts of the defendant were those of wom- an consumed with jealousy" but not of one insane in the eyes of the law.
 The state today also attempted to show that the defendants idea that she was being prosecuted by offici- als of the copper company by Which her husband was employed, was not a deksion but was founded on facts.
 The state was permitted to read into the record a phOtograpnlc copy of a letter from Robert E. Tally as- sistant general manager of the cop per company, to Clarence V. Hop- kins. husband of the defendant, after the latter had ceased to be chief en- gineer of the company but was em ployed by the company on some spe- cial work in the Gallup coal fields This letter requested MT. Hopkins tc secure his wife's withdrawal of heI candidacy for a position on the Je- rome school board in order" the let ter said, that she might not draw votes from another candidate fa- vored my Tally, and thus enable a third candidate to be elected.
 After this letter was read, Mir Hopkins was recalled to the stand and he declared that the letter was not the result of hostility toward Mrs Hopkins by MT. Tally, but was due to a declaration of Mrs. Hopkins that she intended to move from Jerome He said the letter was merely in tended to enable supporters of other candidates their efforts more effec- lively.

MUCH PROGRESS Is MADE BY ARIZONA
 C.E REPORT SHOWS

The executive committee of the Arizona Christian Endeavor Union held it's quarterly business meeting in Phoenix May If and 15. Everyone was present except the -presi- dent, Miss Fay Prigmore of Tucson. The Maricopa and Pima county pres idents met with the committee also.
 Interesting. reports were read by each officer and superintendent, showing that they have been on the job since the state convention at Tucson. Twelve new societies have been organized throughout the state in the two and one-half months, and the efficiency of those societies al ready organized has been greatly in creased
 Many things were planned for the next few months. The state was di vided into nine districts and some efficient leader is to be chosen for each district, so that the work of the state officers may be simplified. Definite plans were made in regard to sending the state president, Harold Singer, to New York to the world $ convention in July, 1921. Four Pima Indians from Sacaton are expecting to be in New York also, as well as eight or ten other delegates from Arizona.
 The Arizona Endeavorers are ex- pecting the work to go forward by leaps and bounds these next few months. How could they expect otherwise when they have Is enthu- siastic. consecrated young people to | head up the work for them? The goals that have been set for these officers are big ones, yet they expect to reach them. Arizona Endeavorers are "All Workers; No Shirkers."

 WASHINGTON, May 1S-Facing trial by the house on five charges of contempt for refusing to testify before one of it's committees, Harry Weinberger of New York. former counsel for Grover Bergdoll, the stacker, turned about suddenly to- day and announced that he had de- cided to answer questions.
 This action ended contempt pro- ceeding, but committee members said his testimony was relatively of no value in the task of trying to fix responsibility for Bergdall's escape
 When he decided to answer ques- tions, the witness testified that he got $5,000 in fees and paid none of it to other lawyers. He knew noth- ing, he said, about the buried gold. He explained that he had decided to answer after learning that Mrs. Elm ma c. Bergdoll, mother of the draft dodger, had told the committee how much the proceedings had cost.

SCHOOL BOND ISSUE
AGAIN NECESSARY

In 1913 a school bond issue was
put up to the people and was passed.
The other day the present school
board desired to sell the bonds and
the two banks undertook to take the
issue. 1t was the intention of the
board to put in a heating system,
bids for which were made, but on
examination of the records, it was
found that the result of the election
had not been made a part of the re-
cord and under these circumstances
1t would not be legal to sell the
bonds. Secretary j. Frank Hawn
states it will be necessary to hold
another election to establish the val
idity Of the bond issue. Meantime,
the school will have to get along
with its present heating system. 1t
is unfortunate but the present board
can only see to it that proper legal
safeguards are put into effect. The
spirit of our local banks is to be
commended.

Shall. 98R10JRVILLE EAVE pOOL R00MS?

The question as to whether city shall or shall
not have pool rooms is not controlled by state law
but is under the actual control of the Mayor and
City Council of city.
Up to now, in the history Of our little city its
atmosphere has not been polluted by the foul in
fuences that gather around pool rooms. We have
had men as City Council men who would not pass
an ordinance permitting pool rooms to be oper-
ated in this city. They have been men who pre-
ferred to create an atmosphere that would foster
schools and churches; that would cause great
bodies of men thruout the country to spend many
thousands of dollars in our little city to build up
such schools as Union College and Barbourville
Baptist Institute.
1t seems that there is a movement under way
to elect city council who will pass laws licensing
pool rooms. Mr.. Ray Ballard is very active in
furthering what is called the "Citizens Protec-
tive Ticket" He attends their meetings, cleo
tioneers for them gets copies of the registration
for them and contributes, as we are informed,
money to their campaign funds Ray would not
go to the good women of this city and talk that
the new council was going to license pool rooms.
He would not let his good mother, who has for
years worked faithfully in this city to beautify
it and purify it's atmosphere and who has worked
for years as strong member OF the antl-saoon
league, know that his ticket was going to license
pool rooms. Ray and bunch Of other young fel-
lows talk this among themselves and to fellows
of the same type out of town. By mere accident
we have fallen on to this scheme. The following
letter gave us the first accurate information that
the issue in this campaign is-shall Barbourvllle
have pool rooms. Please read the following let
ter and be informed of this scheme:
