NON-SUPPORT CHARGE
IS SET ASIDE BY COURT
Conviction OF ..iorman I. Nutwell
Held to Be Invalid for Lack
Of Jurisdiction.

Justice Stafford in Criminal Division /
yesterday set aside the conviction Of
Norman L. Nutwell, charged with non
support Of his three minor children. He
sustained the contention Of Attorney
]. M. Burnett, for the accused. that the
court was without jurisdiction to try
Nutwell because he had never been a
resident of Washington and the pres
ence Of the children in local charitable
institution was the act Of his wife. who
brought the children here from Mary
land after her husband had deserted
her.
The court distinguished the case from
that of a father who being a resident
leaves his children here in destitute
circumstances and then pleads that he
was not in the jurisdiction at the time
mentioned in the indictment. The court
was inclined to think that the statute
would cover such cases, but a strict in
depreciation prevents the conviction of
Nutwell because he was a resident of
Maryland, came only to Washington for
the marriage ceremony and returned to
Maryland. where he lived with his wife
to the time Of the alleged desertion.

Lei Us Give Thanks

It's a good thing to pause along
about this time of year and take
a little inventory of the blessings
that have come to you within
the past twelve months. II
helps you to more fully appre-
ciate your own worth to the
community, it helps you to real
ize the worth of those you call
your neighbors and your friends,
and it sort of puts you in tune
to push on through another year
determined to make it, too, one
worth while to yourself and
those about you.
Troubles have come into some
of our hearts since one year ago
we were called upon to observe
the day of Thanksgiving. May
be sickness has laid a heavy hand
upon you or a member of your
family. Possibly financial affairs
have not moved in the same
smooth line you would prefer.
That thing you call "bad luck"
may have crossed your path,
and for a moment darkened your
life with its shadows. Not every
day can we expect fate to smile
upon us.
But sum it up, weigh it with
the lot of someone else--and
you'll find some cause for join
ing in this day of Thanksgiving.
You'll find joy in giving thanks
that you live in a land where
every man is his own king, and IN
his own province. You'll look
INTO the faces of the loved ones
about you, and feel thankful that
hey have been spared to keep
you company. You'll shake the
1and of a neighbor and feel in
hat grip the pledge of assistance
when you really need it. You'll
lit by your own hearthstone,
lBout your own festal board and
hank Providence that famine
md hunger have not set foot
lpon your doorstep, but that
rou are blessed with the necessi-
les of life, and that you got
hem in the only honest way
through honest labor honorably
reformed.
The time of Thanksgiving is
With us again, and we do not be-
eve there is in all Laclede or
he territory surrounding anyone
o miserable as not have at least
omething to be thankful for.
Therefore let US, each in his
wn simple way, open our hearts
l praise to the One who has
neltered US, protected US and {
us safely to another {
arvest time. Let us, as peace $
il, law-abiding, God-fearing |
Itizens of the grandest nation |
n the globe renew our pledge of t
,rvice to our families and our S
ONES, and forgetting the dark {
,ots along the pathway over a
hich we have passed hope for e
1ly sunshine for ourselves and "
lr fellowmen in all the days to e
,me.

AIR INTEREST UP
A Year Ago Many Still Believed
Flying Machine Failure.
More Than 275,OOO Took Safe
Flights in 1921 Report.

Sioux City, Ia, March 2s. - Some
275.o0O persons travelled by air in
| 1921, altho a year ago many persons
believed that the present generation
would not accept the flying machine,
| according to a paper by Samuel S.
| Bradley of New York, general man
ager of the AeronauticaI Chamber of
Commerce of America. which was
read in his absence at the Commercial
Air Conference here today. CONNER
cial aviation survived with no appre-
clable announcement other than the
hard work and relatively mea ger
funds which its supporters put into it.
Such was 1920. Then the next IL
months witnessed the most interesting
development in our transportation his
tory Hundreds of persons flew. The
public has changed its mind" the mes
sage said and added:
The hit and miss flying of former
years has passed, together with the
aerial tramp. the side show performer
and the self-styled daredevil of the
air. The gypsy filler is being alb
sorbed by the established companies
approximately 100 companies or
individuals are permanently estab-
lished and operating about half of the
CIVILIAN planes in the country. In
other words, they operate between 500
and 500 of the aggregate 1900 ma
chlnes- They report to us that in 1921
123,221 pounds of freight. Thew
traversed air routes and made short
flights aggregating 2,9O7,245 miles
The average cost per passenger was
% cents mile as compared to 65
cents the year before. The average
charge per flight was SO.
Half of the activity Nof 1921 was
carried on in the region between the
Appalachian and the Rocky noun
tains- Half the airplanes in the coun-
try are operated there. The Missis-
sippi, Ohio and Missouri river valleys.
Colorado, Montana, the Dakotas,
Iowa. Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma
and Texas, afford many natural adj
Vantases, chief among them emer-
gency landing facilities. 1t is esti-
mated that more than 500 planes were
entered in the various flying meets
in the middle west. that they flew a
meets. carrying approximately 5000
passengers and performing before
crowds aggregating 100000 spectators,
in a majority of instances without a
single serious accident.
Revenues derived by civilian aerial
transport in 1921 amounted to con-
siderably more than ever before prin-
cipally because there was not the
free-flying or educational work that
arked 1920 as a year of pioneering.
operators remained in business at the
end of the year is conclusive evidence
that the public paid.
1.-The Wadsworth bill now before
congress. providing for a bureau of
civil aviation in the department Of
commerce which would administer
the air laws and provide regulations,
should be made a law before the
spring flying season opens"
Mr.. Bradley said the AeronauticaI
Chamber of Commerce was formed
to coordinate the efforts of all oper-
ators of aircraft.
