Efficiently there appeared in
the Saturday Evening Post story
entitled, West Broadway" by
Nina Wilcox Putnam. Part of
the story describes an alleged trip
by automobile through New Mex
leo. The story was so full Of in
Accuracies that the Meadow City
Boosters club requested Colbert
C. Root, secretary of the CONNER
cial club, to write the editor of
the Saturday Evening Post and
call his attention to the misstate-
ments contained in the story. Mr..
Roots letter follows:
To the Editor of the Saturday
Evening Post, Philadelphia, Pa.
Dear Sir:
1t has been long matter of
speculation to me as to how
much a motorist can see of
country he is traversing; whether,
after all, the traveller on the train,
giving the responsibility to the
engineer, forgetting about grades
and tires and places in the road
of bad repute, might not relax
himself to window gazing and to
the end of the journey, have a
better idea of what he had seen
than the auto tourist, have
come to the conclusion that
neither is competent to describe
accurately what he has seen, I'M
less he has stopped long enough
to see it.
This conclusion was further
confirmed by the installment Of
"West Broadway" by Nina VIII
cox Putnam, which appeared in
the issue of your magazine June
IL. 1 doubt not but that the
writer's intentions were none
other than to create something
that would get a laugh. And she
has been successful, for the story
is funny. But Miss Putnam trav-
eled too rapidly; she did not see
enough of what she was passing
through to write a truthful &C
count Of it, anC in falling to make
her story truthful, she gave New
Mexico an undeserved black eye.

STATE COURT ACTION
 DOES NOT AFFECT U. s.
 COURT, JUDGE DECLARES

Mobile. June 2. Special Doe cision to the effect ethat an acquittal or conviction in the state courts in prosecution cases has no bearing whatever on the same case in the federal court was rendered Thursday by Judge Robert T. Erwin in the trial of Spencer Newell of Priehard, who was tried and convicted of selling liquor.
 Newell was acquitted of the same offense on the same case In state court some time ago and his attorney filed an appeal that the case in the federal court be dismissed on account of that verdict.
 Assistant District A ttorney J. O. Middleton demurred contending that the verdict in the state case should have no bearing on the trial in the federal court.
 The judge upheld the demurrer.
 Newell under the Volstead act will be given a prison sentence. as he was tried for violating that law, which makes it mandatory for the court to fix prison sentence, as it was shown that Newell was convicted previously for selling liquor:
 The ruling of the judge is of great interest to legal circles, as the aues- ton of trials for the same offense in the two courts las been much dis cussed.

 NAVAL DIPLOMAS
President Prays Newly Com missioned Officers May Never
 Be Called Into Battle
By Associated Press

Annapolis, June 2.-President Hard ing presented diplomas to the Naval academy graduating class there today with prayer that the newly com missioned officers never would be called into battle, but with an admoni- ton that willingness to fight and die for one's country always must remain one of the most potent safeguards to civilization.
 Speaking in Dahlgren hall before the midshipmen and thousands of their relatives and friends assembled for the graduation exercises, the Presi- dent solemnly reaffirmed his faith in strong and fearless republic. but added that he wanted it always re- prblic of high ideals,' The most de- sired of na national attainments, he said, would be a medium between the spirit of maintained institutions and the spirit of the crusader.
 With his expression of hope that the nation would not again be called to war, Mir. Harding coupled a promise that so long as he remained President no American would be called upon to fire gun except in cause in har- mony with the American conscience

ONE KILLED, SIX HURT
 IN L. & N. COLLISION

Mobile, June 2.-Ope person was killed and six others were injured in d fear-end collision at an early hour today between a fast northbound Louisville and Nashville passenger train and a northbound freight train on siding al Theodore, 14 miles south of this city
 The dead man is John J. Winnow of this city, engineer of the passenger train. The injured are Charles Palmer fireman of the passenger train; George Eslava, George Sheffield, George T. Morris and two persons whose names were not obtainable, as they were given attention at Theodore.
 According, to Louisville and Nash vile officials, part of the freight train was overhanging the main line, the en- gineer of the passenger train crashing into the caboose of the freight. The caboose and six cars of the freight were wrecked and thrown from the track.
 Winnow sustained the injuries which proved fatal when he jumped from his engine cab when he saw that a wreck could not be ayerted. Fireman Palmer also jumped.
 Members of the passenger crew say the fact that Engineer Winnow had his train partly under control when his train struck the caboose probably saved passengers from perhaps fatal injuries.

 Chairmanship Impossible
By Associated Press

New York, June 2--Walter c. Teagle. president of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, today eliminated him self from those under consideration by President Harding for chairman Of the shipping board.
 Having learned that his name had been placed before the President as a possibility for the position, Mir. Tea gle came to Washington and informed MT. Harding he regretted that circum- stances made it impossible at this time for him to consider severance of his connection with the Standard oil conn pany.
 The development promised to delay again the submission of nominations for membership on the board to the Senate. The President had hoped to close the whole matter this week.
 Mir Teagle is the second prominent business man who is understood to have read himself out of the Presi- dents list of available men for the board chairmanship. The other is James A. Farrell, president of the United States Steel corporation who. 1t is believed was seriously under con sderation for the appointment, but whose friends have indicated that he would not accept it, if offered.

By Associatad press

New York, June 2=Professor Paul N.

 latest foreign policy of the Lenihe government.
 This document, which was addressed to the representatives of the Boi- sheviki government abroad and came into the possession of Prof. Milukosr in Paris, calls attention to the alliances of the various world powers which would be regarded as most beneficial to soviet Russian ambitions. Of this the document says;
 The interests of the western pow CTS are so interwoven that 1t Is im-
 possible under present conditions to forecast the political communications into which the alliances of the powers will finally resolve themselves How ever, realizing the advantage which the creation of such alliances undoubtedly holds out to us we suggest to our missions as worthy of consideration the following combinations:
 "f3ritish- Japanese as a threat to America Britsh-German as threat to ce;.Italian- Greek as a counter balance to the policies of England and France in the near east: Polish French as direct threat to Germany; Czecho- Rumanian as a threat to Hungary. etc"
 Observing that through defeating Kolchak. Denikine and Wrangel, SOW jet Russia came face to face with "the t forces of imperalistic eapitalism.,' the Instructions declare that the whole future of soviet Russia depends upon sxillful utilization of the present political situation in Europe" Eco instructions refer to the idea Of a come so heiplessry bad.
