GRAND JUNCTION NAY
FAVOR RAINBOW ROlTTH

After working with the northern
route. both automobile and raflroad
for 30 years, Grand Junction foIks
find they are getting of on the wrong
foot and being doubled crossed by
their supposed friends. The Rain
boa auto route is the only safe bet. a
proposition which they are slowly
discovering. The following from the
Grand Junction Sentinel unfolds the
situation:
At the regular weekly luncheon Of
the Lions Club held this week at the
Ia Court hotel, the matter Of routing
tourists came in for further discus
sion, following the receipt Of letters
from the Lions clubs at Colorado
Springs zHd Gleuwood Springs. The
local club wrote TO both OF these
clubs after hearing Of the action Of
Rife and GlcuEood Springs in s.snd-
ing tourists over the Meeker- -Vernal
road instead Of by way Of the official
Ougan-tO-OecaH highway thru Grand
Junction. and the letters received
were in answer % these communion
tons. They expressed the full ae-
cord Of the tao clubs with the inten-
tIon 20 keep 10 the official routing
thru Grand Junction Local members
however, said that individuals in the
two ciues wcre At variance with the
sentiments Of the tWo clubs and the
suggestion was made that Grand juno
ti0n put In places ia Rife ADVERTISE
ments telling Of this end Of the Of
fetal highway.
Another suggestion which in all
probability would only be adopted as
a last resort. pEovides that Grand
Junction take measures 20 have tour
t ists advised II SaIida to take the
Rainbow Route, thus cutting of Rife
and Gienwo0d Springs and at the
same time giving the traveller pic
turrsuue and scenic highway. /.

RADIO NEWS FROM COLLEGE
STATION AT GUNSlSON
IContIuucd from last week.

Continued from last week.
The br1adCastiug stations which
are available for us consists Of four
Denver stutlOuE-the Post Station,
the National Guard Station, the Rey-
nolds Radio Company Station, and
". d. Pyle Station. Two Kansas
City Stauonz-The Kansas City Star
station aud the station Of the Sween-
IS Auto School. One Los Angeles
station that Of the Los Angeles EX-
amintr: one ST. Louis station, that Of
the St. Louis Dispatch. The latter
is the most recent acquisition, il hay-
ing come 70 the notice Of the operator
of 9lAH hast Monday night.
1t might b. interesting to note the
distances between these stations
One must remember that these dis
taUccs are measured by means Of
straight lines, not along COW paths or
railroads.
Distances from Gunnison-"The
Sunshine City of the World"-to
Denver, 100 miles: Salt Lake City,
256 miles; Kansas City, $50 miles;
Los Angeles, 663; St. Louis, $50:
Madison, Wis. $50; Chicago, 1910;
Auburn, Ala, llS0; Detroit, 1890.
The work at the College here has
been on stations which will actuate
to the Magnayox loud speaker. The
plans at the College for the next two
months is TO work with the head
phones for long distances part of
the time. Madison, Chicago and Au-
burn have been heard, though not
regularly. Detroit has never been
detected here yet, and that is the sta
ton that is 10 be worked on next
with the head phones
One very interesting thing in the
tests this summer have shown that
signals from stations at distance
are received with more intensity
than from those near at hand. The
stations at Los Angeles and Kansas
City cause the MagnayoN to produce
more sound in the physic laboratory
than do the stations from Denver.
The conclusion might be that Denver
being so near to the mountains, much
of the energy sent from there passes
over the head of the Sunshine City,"
The static which is so prevalent in
the Gunnison altitude in the summer
is moderating, some now getting
ready to be silent in the winter time.
While during the summer better sig
mails are obtained during the day be-
cause of the fact that at night there
is so much noise from the static at
mospherics as to drown out the mes
sage. One can think how nice it will
be this winter to sit az home and get
the stock reports, weather reports,
and music from eight broadcasting
stations

WHAT THE DELTA INDE-
PENDENT HAS TO SAY OF
JUDGE MILTON K. WEIGH

From Delta Independent July 2l.'22D
Judge Milton K. Welch, at the er-
nest zoIIr.t.Du OF q number OF prUmi-
ncHt attorney Ola tie Western Slope.
has decided 20 become q candidate
before the Republican State Assem-
bly, for the Office Of one OF the Su-
preme Judges of Colorado. The
Western slope has no representation
on the Supreme Bench. and as far
a known az the present time. there
Is no other candidate from the West
ern Slop".
Judge Wclch is emueutly qualified
for this position, having been a resi-
dent of Colorado FOR over forty
years and has been engaged in gcner-
al practice Of Law Tor over twenty
eight yeaIs at Delta, Colorado.
Milton Z. Welch was educated in
the high school Of Knoxville, Iowa,
and in the Knoxville Academy and
afterTard became a student in the
University Of Colorado, where he
pursued his law course and was
n graduate with the class of 1894.
with degree Of Bachelor Of Laws.
In that year a gold medal had been
Offered to students Of all the law
schools in the state by Judge Moses
Hallett for the one passing the best
final examination, and this distinction
was won by Judge Welch, an honor
of which he is still justly proud.
Soon afterwards he located at Del
IA and entered upon the practice of
his profession, in which he has
since continued. In 1895 he was
elected county judge for a three
years term, was reelected in 1898
and again IN 1901, so that he served
continuously upon the bench for
period Of nine years. His decisions
were characterized by n masterful
grasp of every problem presented
for solution and by marked equity.
He was strictly fair and impartial in
all of his rulings and his opinions
were sustained by higher courts up
on appeal Since his retirement from
the bench he has been engaged in a
profitable private practice being ace
corded large law clientage.
Judge Welch has held number of
important positions, which he has
filed with marked ability. He was
appointed United States Commission
er by Judge Hallett over twenty
five years ago and has held this no
sition ever since. He was n member
OF the Board of Trustees in the State
Normal School, appointed by Govern
or Mcdonald in 1905 and served until
1911 and at the present time is Coun-
~ Attorney for Delta County.
Judge Welch has been active in
the development of the Western
Slope, his hobby being the reclama-
ton of desert lands. He has made
profound study of the law of irriga-
tion and Is recognized as an authori-
ty on that subject

Judge Welch for many years and be-

Reports from Moscow say the Sovie.

Germany, visited the Rhineland las'

government, and has been cordially
received by foreign office officials and

The position Of the Soviet, as out
lined by men In close touch with Mos
COW, is that Russia has all to gain
and nothing to lose by future develop
ments. The Moscow government is
said to be stronger today than at any
other time since its creation. The
high Bolshevist leaders are described
az determined to carry out their oft
repeated program eventually. although
eports to the contrary have been cir

In the meantime the cleverest OF
