CHANCE TO GROW
 TEN INCHES TALLER

Berlin, Oct 26-(By Radio to I. N. S.)-An amazing scientific discovery by which as much as ten inches can be added to the height of a human being was announced here today.
 Professor August Bier, of Berlin University has just completed two successful experiments, both conduct ed through surgery. One operation was upon a woman dwarf, the other upon a man.
 The operation consists of saving through the thigh bone after which the upper part of the leg is placed under special extension process for a period of time averaging two months. Dur ing this time the bone regenerates, fill ing up the space between the discon- nected parts and lengthening the thigh about five centimeters- In both cases the same operation was repeated two Mines within two years, thus adding 1SNcentimete altogether.
 The Biblical question: ''Who. by taking thought, can add single cubit to his stature? ?" seems to be answered by Prof. Bier.

SENATE BATTLE IN N, MEXICO
 WAKES WARM
Women Making Strong Race for Election to Lower House of Con- Gress.

Albuquerque, N. M., Oct. 25.-One of the closest votes in the history o1 New Mexico is predicted as a re- suit of the hot political battle waged the last month between Senator A A. Jones and Stephen s. Davis, Jr- for the United States Senatorial toga to be awrded at the geDSSal elections next week.
 Although New Mexico has been considered in recent years to be normally Republican. Senator Jones, the present incumbent, is a Democrat and is laying much stress in his campaign for reelection upon his seniority in the upper branch of Congress.
 Davis, the Republican aspfrant for Senatorial hcnors, resigned from the Supreme Court of the State to be- come a candidate against Jones.
 The tariff law recently passed by Republican Congress is the lead ing issue in the campaign, as New Mexico is vEtally affected by the wool tariff.
 Both Jones and Davis have con- ducted an extensive speaking cam paign, and many speakers have come gospel of the respective political parties
 A feature of the campaign over which the Democrats are highly elated is the fact that the Santa Fe New Mexican, one of the oldest Re- publican newspapers in the West. is favorable to Senator Jones' re-elec- tion.
 The contest for New Mexico's only seat in the lower house of Congress, between Mrs. Ade1ina Otero-Warren, Republican, and John w. Morrow, Democrat. has waxed warm. but not acrim onious. Mrs. Warren promises if elected to impress Congress with the necessity for turning over to the schools of New Mexico large grants of land, a task many New Mexican Congressman have failed to accom- pltsh in years of trying. Because of the great area of the State and it's comparatively small population, the school financing problem has always been a difficult one for New Mexico.
 A full state ticket will be elected at the elections Tuesday, in addition to the selection of @ Congressman and United States Senator.
