APPEAL WEST CASE.

Little Rock, July 22.-An immed ate appeal is to be taken by the defense in the case of Emanuel West, the ne- gro who was yesterday convicted in Pulaski circuit court of criminal as- sault and sentenced to life imprisor- ment. This was the second trial of West, the first trial having resulted in hung jury. The negro has a. ready been taken to the penitentiary The appeal can be risked with perfect impunity, since the law provides that no person may twice be put in jeop ardy of life and limb for the same of fense and having been sentenced to life Imprisonment he could not be con victed of the same crime and sentenc- ed to death

S25,O0O AID GIVEN
 TODAMASCUS ROAD
HIGHWAY BOARD AWARDS
Will Enable Better Type of Bridge and Better ROad-WOrk Re-
 sumed in District.

An additional grant of S25,000 in federal aid was made to the Conway and Damascus road at the meeting of the advisory board of the state high way board, held yesterday at Little Rock. Notice of the award was re- ceived today by the commissions and work on the highway, suspended while the board had the matter under ad- visement, will be immediately re- stunned. The new grant makes total of $70,0OO given this district from federal funds.
 One direct benefit to come to the district from the new grant will be the construction of better type of bridge across the Cadron bottoms. According to one of the commission CTS, the fund will make possible a double track bridge and will also per init the commissioner to improve the highway on other points. With funds available one week ago, the district would have been forced to build only a single track bridge over this stretch.
 As soon as the type of bridge has been decided, the order for the steel will be placed and the efforts of the contractors bent toward having it completed and in use by fall. It will require about 30 days after the order has been placed for the steel to be cut and delivered in Conway and then probably 60 days to assemble it. It is possible that the completed struc- ture will be opened late in October.

of marrying one who was her equal. Wooden BoyDoll was very unhappy, for he knew no way of getting up where Girl-DOll was hanging and he was sure she never would come down to where he sat on the floor of the shop window
 At night he could hear GirlDoll and BoyBlue talking and he heard her tell him that all that separated them was the Jumping Jack that hung between them.
 "Oh dear" thought Wooden Boy, instead of one rival I have two. l never will be able to win her. Even if l could be hung on the same line, there would be many between us." So little BoyDoll sat very sad and lonely on the floor and thought of his sweetheart, far above him, at whom he could only look, but not once did she lower her proud little wooden head to look at her true lover. But one day, when all seemed lost to 9ittle Boy-Doll, for Jumping Jack | had been sold and now there was nothing to keep Girl-Doll and Boy Blue apart, the spring that held Girl Doll broke and down she tumbled right beside Boy-Don.
 Girl-DoIl looked up at Boy Blue, but he did not lower his head; she was too far beneath him to be noticed.
 That night, when all was still, Girl Doll sat close to .Boy-Doll, for the shopkeeper had placed her there. Ut is very pleasant down here" she said. T think I shall like living here"
 Then the heart Of little Wooden Boy went pit-a-pat and he grew quite bold. I've are equal now" he said, don't you think we might get married?"
 "Of course, silly Boy" answered GirlDoll, that was why came down."

STARVATION GRIPS
 VAST POLISH AREAS
(By the Associated Press)

Warsaw, July 22.-Inspectors of the American relief administration of the European child's fund which is feeding 100000 children in Poland have just explored districts along the eastern frontier of the new republic where thousands of persons made homeless by war are living in sol diers' dugouts and where no white bread has been seen in more than three years. Heretofore, it has been almost impossible to reach these areas chiefly because of lack of transpor- tation.
 In the Pripet marsh country, be- tween Pinsk and the Russian border, one inspector reported that after reaching the railroad terminal he had travelled two days by automobile, then by boat and by horseback to visit people who had been reported in need. Potatoes had been the princi- pal food upon which these people ex- isted during the winter, the inspect ors reported, and with the coming of spring, men, women and children lived chiefly upon cooked grass,s dandelions and some farm products.
 At various points along the from tier, which follows the old German Russian trench line of 1917, peasants who had been driven from their homes by advancing armies, have been re turning, only to find their homes de- molished and virtually everything gone excepting the bare land They have taken to the dugouts for shelter until they are able to build shacks upon their holdings.
 In scores of villages in this battle area not one house has been left standing. They were demolished ! either during the fighting between the Russians and the Germans or af- | terward when the Bolsheviki invaed territory which is now a part of Po- 1 land. No attempts have been made to reorganize the local government.

 porch will be covered with a hand some new roof A new heating sys- tenn is planned for the entire build ing. The building will be as attrac tive and comfortable as the bette
 homes of our towns and cities.

REDUCE FIT. SHERIDAN
 TO BARE PERSONNEL
tBy 'ne Associated Press)

Chicago, July 22.-Men are being discharged daily at Ft. Sheridan near here, where the army contingent is rapidly dwindling to the bare number of soldiers necessary to man the post Only about 750 men remain and it is expected that by September this number will be reduced to about 200
 The reduction has been made nee. essary because of the small army pro. vided for in congressional appropri- ations. A recent order of the war de. partment allowed any enlisted man to receive his discharge during the month of July upon application. Numbers of men who have one and two years yet to serve under their enlistments are taking advantage of the discharge order.
 Ft. Sheridan is headquarters of the Sixth Army Corps area, Major George Bell, Jr., commanding.

own counsel. Roberts remembered be- coming intoxicated on the last day of June and corrected the prosecutor when he stated it was the first day of June. He did not, however, recall any of the circumstances surrounding the crime except he saw Mrs. Willis early in the morning the day the assault was attempted, and that he hitched his mule and went toward where she was working. The interval between this time and the moment he realized the extent of his crime, he claims Is a complete blank in his memory.
 When he had freed Mrs. Willis and left the scene, Roberts "hoped it was all a dream,' he told the jury. He continued to hope it was all dream even after he had been lodged in jail, he said Leaving the scene of the crime, he went to the home of Ed Hall and told Mrs. Hall he had chill and went to the "big woods" to sleep. His answer to Mir. Waggoner's repeat ed question as 70 why he went to the woods to sleep instead of to bed, was simply q was sick Later in the day he was with Tom Smith, to whom he confided nothing in regard to the crime, and was arrested shortly be- fore sundown by man whose name he did not know.
 Spectators in the court room watch ing Roberts on the stand were divided as to his sanity and insanity. Some of the questions he answered with as much intelligence as displayed by the average court witness and on others, he answered with look of blankness, in some cases saying he did not knew.
 Two cases were continued in circuit court at the session Thursday after. noon. The cases were continued i'll circuit court at the session Thursday afternoon. The case of Fora Mode and others against the Ancient Order of United Workmen was continued, and also the action brought by l.. s. Dunaway against c. E. Durham and others. Judge Clark suspended sen- tence of Ed Andrews and Richard Quattlebaum, who entered pleas of guilty, until the January, 1922, term. They are under bond of $1,000 each.
 The case of Minnie Warden vs. Ed Carmichael, which had been the suh- ject of several court orders, was de. cided for the plaintiff in jury trial which occupied the greater part Of Thursday afternoon. The jury was composed of Wash Jones, o. G. Moore, J. s. Dickens, F. P. Henderson, r. J L. Nutter, J. H. Bivens, w. B. Glenn Snow, J. R. Beckett, G. K Elliott, A Ernest McCracken and w. R. Me Henry.

UNITED STATES
NOT SINCERE
(By Associated Press)

TOXIC, Jan. 18.-American pro-
posals that Japan, Great Britain and
the United States take naval holi-
day." is eloquent proof that, despite
her fabulous riches, America wishes
to curtail national expenditures;
therefore, proposals are intended to
help America more than to contribute
to the peace of the world, said Mar
quis Okuma, former Japanese prem
ier, in an interview here today, He
asserted that America should first
consult Great Britain relative to the
suggested suspension of building of
naval vessels and only when an Am
erican-British agreement has been
reached can Japan be in position to
consider the proposition.
Japan's naval program is fixed at a
minimum required for national de-
defense, he asserted and charged that
it appears that theodAmericanf gov
ernment is giving the incident aris-
ing on of the death of Naval Lieuten-
ant Langdon at NIadivostok undue
importance. Local newspapers print
editorials expressing surprise at what
they call timidity of the Japanese
government in dealing with the ques-
ton.
