tBy Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Washington Authority to make
loans direct to borrowers in communi-
ties where farmers in need of govern
ment assistance are not proptrly serv-
ed by national farm loan associations,
is requested of Congress by the fed
eral farm loan board in its annual re-
port filed today.
Many complaints have been received
the report stated, that desiring bor-
rowers are not receiving considera-
ton from associations through which
under existing laws they are required
to negotiate for loans.
The report recommended provision
be made for voluntary liquidation of
farm loan association on petition of a
majority of the share holders and urg-
ed enactment of legislation creating a
corporation of which the federal land
banks would be share holders, for the
taking over of the buying and selling
of farm loan securities. Chairman
McFadden of the House Banking COM
mittee has introduced bill providing
for such corporation.
During the past fiscal year the
board reported, two issues of farm
loan bonds - one for $4,000, 900 and
another for $6O,O00,OO0 were marketed
from the proceeds of which loans were
made.

BIG DEBATE ON
BRISTOL SCHOOL
Joint Debate on Consolida-
ton and High School
Plan Friday.
LEADERS TO TALK

Back to the days of Lincoln and
Douglas. Back to the days when the
great issues of government and home
were settled in the forensic arena.
Announcement has been made that a
joint debate will be held at Bristol
hall on next Friday evening at which
time the whole question of the con-
solidation of the schools of the vii
.lage and township ana the erection of
a township high school will be thresh-
ed out by battery of speakers in
Guiding the leading men and women of
the township. The question set for
debate is:
"Shall the schools of the township
of Bristol be consolidated into one
district for the establishment of a
town school for both elementary and
high school training?"
To Interest Whole County.
It is expected that the debate on
the question will interest the whole
county and that the hall will be too
small to hold the crowd which will
want to hear the discussion of the
important school problem.
]. B. Edwards of Woodwork, long
time town clerk of the town of Bris-
toll, is to lead the affirmative side of
the question and he will have as his
aides L. G. Benedict and Mrs. Roy
Murdoch. The negative will be cham
pioned by team composed of D. U.
Richards, Frank o. Rowbottom and
Mrs. Mary Lamb. 1t is understood
that the speakers have been selected
regardless of their stand on the big
school question but with a view of
bringing before the people every adj
vantage and every disadvantage in con-
nection with the consolidation propo-
sition.
The officials to preside at the de-
bate have not as yet been selected and
it is announced that they will be
named on the night the speakers meet
in the forensic arena. The debate is
under the auspices of the Bristol Par
ent-Teachers' association.

NAB GAMBLERS
AT EARLY HOUR
Police Finally Get Goods
on Game Keeper at 1O17
Prairie Avenue.
ONE MAN ESCAPES
From MONDAYS daily.)

There always has to be first time
for everything.
The first time for Police officer
Chase to stage a gambling raid came
early Sunday morning as he was trav-
cling his beat on West Prairie avenue.
He has been on the force for six
months and while always "on the job
has looked in vain for an opportunity
to stage real raid. That chance
came Sunday morning, however, and
the way he handled it showed that he
was ready to do his duty.
While travelling his beat he gained
information that gambling game was
being played at 1917 West Prairie
avenue, upstairs. He had been ad-
vised by higher police officials to be
on the lookout for law violations at
this place and When he secured this
information at two o'clock III the
morning, he did not care to take time
to summon other members of the de-
partment lest the "lil game" should
break up while he was tarying.
Finds Deputy to Help.
AS good luck would have it, Deputy
Sheriff Emil Fox happened along and
when told of the situation offered his
services to help in the raid. The two
men then went to the room, broke
their way into it and there found
three men gambling at cards.
Because there were only two officers,
stairway and escaped. Each of the
officers got man and proceeded with
them to the police Office. There one of
them, j. W. Veneer, the proprietor,
of the place, was charged with oper-
ating gambling house, while the
other, Leo Rooney, was charged with
gambling. They were released on cash
bonds on promise to appear in court
this morning.
Place Been Long Watched.
Chief of Police Thad Logan de-
clared that the police had long been
watching this place at 1917 Prairie
avenue, upstairs. He declared that it
had played prominent part in the
downfall of former Police Officer West
brook, who after being forced to re-
sign from the force was ordered to
leave Kenosha several weeks ago. It
was said that several visits had been
made to the place by police officers in
recent weeks but at each time no ar
rests had been made because it ap-
peared that the parties there had
larned of the approach of the officers
It was for this reason that Police Of
fcer Chase lost no time in raiding the
rooms when he heard Of a violation of
law there.
The two men arrested appeared be-
fore Judge Slater in the municipal
court this morning and both pleaded
guilty to the charges placed against
them. Veneer was fined $500 and
costs while Rooney was given SIS and
costs. Both fines were paid.

Goes to Jury Late Friday.

The Rudy Brankow- Mccain case was
given to the jury by Judge Lands just
before six o'clock Friday afternoon
with the order that a sealed verdict
be brought in this morning, if the
jurors could arrive at verdict dur
ing the night. Strong pleas were made
for the discharge Of the Kenosha
members of I q trio on trial on the
declaration that the evidence presented
by. the government failed to show that
the Kenosha men had any intimate
knowledge of the operations %of the
automobile gang in Chicago. 1t was
admitted that the Kenosha men may
of automobiles but the attorneys de-
clared that their actions did not show
any criminal knowledge.
The hearing of the testimony for
the defendants took up the entire day
in the court of Judge Lands. All
OF the defendants took the stand IN
their own behalf.
Sought to Extend Agency.
Rudy testified that he never had
any knowledge of the operations of the
gang of automobiles thieves in Chi
cago and that the only time he had
any dealings with them was when he
purchased the Cadillac automobile. ~
had been looking for second hand
Cadillac" said Rudy, "and I was told
1 think by Brankow, that Fox had one
he wante to sell. When Fox came to
Kenosha he told me he was a Chicago
dealer and that he was anxious to ex-
tend his trade up into Wisconsin. He
showed me the cart and wanted $4,000
for it, but after considerable talking
he agreed to cut the price five hundred
dollars. gave him five hundred dol
lars to bind the bargain with the und-
erstanding that the rest Of the twenty
eight hundred dollars would be paid
when / received bill of sale"
Rudy said that he had demanded the
bill of sal cas- protection on account
of the fact that he id not know Fox
and wanted to be protected.
Several witnesses were on the stand
in behalf of both Brankow and Rudy
and most important evidence was given
by Peter Rhode. He said Rudy had
been to him and had asked him to
make an effort to get him a second
hand Cadillac car. Rhode said that he
had gone to Milwaukee to find such a
car as Rudy wanted and that Rudy
ha said that he wanted to pay about
sixteen hundred dollars for the car.
Other Cases Are Laid Over.
The cases of the government against
Louis Stella and Hugo Lencioni which
were to have been called on Friday
following the disposal of the cases
against Brankow and Rudy were adj
journed until next Thursday. This
action was found necessary on account
of the large amount of time taken in
the trial of the Rudy-Brankow case
All of the Kenosha defendants are out
on bond. 1t is expected that Stein
Fox and others who have been convict
ed in connection with the alleged con-
spiracy, will come up for sentence with
the completion Of the hearing of the
case against Lencioni and Stella.

New Chandler Coming
is Mystery Message
Without Details Creates
Wide Spread Comment in the
United States.

Announcement that a new Chandler
is coming is mystery message Great
ing widespread comment throughout
the United States today. There are
no~details.
The Chandler Motor Car company
of Cleveland, in big advertisement
announces that it's new car is now only
a week off and will first be presented to
the public at the New York show.
No developments in respect to the
automobile industry could be more
certain to create general excitement
and pique curiosity.
For the last eight years the Chandler
Motor Car company has been one of
the commanding organizations in the
industry. 1t has not only been a great
manufacturer, but at times it has
done the exceptional and almost revo-
lutionary thing.
The low pricing of it's car at the
Chicago show of 1916 created genu-
inc sensation.
There is consequently the keenest
expectation to know what Chandler
will divulge in its announcement of
next week.
The admitted manufacturing genius
of The Chandler Motor Car company,
it's great resources, its purchasing skill
and its unassailable financial position
give it potentials to produce impress
sive values at lowest costs.
One hundred thousand pres n
Chandler owners as well as users of
many other kinds Of automobiles will
naturally await with keenest expect
ancy details of the Forthcoming car.
Up to this time the secret has been
we'll kept. Nothing is known of type,
mechanical details or price, the man
agement contenting itself with this
general statement:
at the New York show is the greatest
achievement in our eight years of
motor car building"
This is a very considerable claim,
for in the interval above mentioned the
company has taken a commanding place
among leaders of the industry and its
product is distributed not only through
out the United States, but all over
| the world.
The little machine shop of 1918 has
grown into plant of thirty acres, and
the Chandler car is manufactured al
most in its entirety in Chandler
| factories.
The timing of the new car to arrive
with the new year and with the New
York show makes it undeniably one OF
the big events of motoring 1922.

Ozanne, foreman, at o'clock Saturday
afternoon in the case of State VS.. Peter
Fisher Jr. The verdict came as the
climactic close of weeks trial of the
former district attorney on the charge
Of having accepted on March ID, 1921,

he would protect them from prosecu-
ton by the Kenosha county grand jury,
investigations for which were then
pending. The grand jury convened on
May II, 1921.
After the verdict had been read the
jury was polled and the jurors one by
one arose in their place and answered
that sit was and still is my verdict"
District Attorney Symmonds approach
ed the bench and started to address the
jury "Ladies and Gentlemen of the
jury" he said, but Judge Belden waiv-
ed his hand and dismissed the jury
without permitting Symmonds to
speak.
A minute later there was call for
some information as to the standing of
the various ballots. Judge Belden call
ed the jury back into the box and in
solemn tones told the members of the

alterations in the jury box.

Attorney Baker, who has been at the
head OF the battery of attorneys de-
Tending Mr.. Fisher did not make

few days. "Any time next week will
be glad to take up the matter" said
Judge Belden, "and the records will
show the entrance of the usual mo-
tions at this time"
The defendant, Fisher, had remain
ed seated while the court formalities
were being carried out but as the
judge left he arose and picked up his
overcoat. Don't you want to make
statement" a newspaper man asked
him. "Mr. Fisher was conscious that
he had committed some wrong" said
Attorney r. V. Baker," speaking in
carefully measured terms, "but he and
his attorneys based his defense on the
plea in bar which we had made for
him and we depended on the legal as
pect of this case to bring him an ac-
quittal. Mr.. Fisher was betrayed. He
went into the grand jury room-and
told the grand jurors everything he
knew with the understanding that this
information would not be used against
him."
About His Statement.

that / would make" Mr.. Fisher told
the newspaper men. 81 feel that there
is no question of the suficiency of the
plea in bar and l believe that the su-
preme court will reverse the lower
court in it's holdings in this matter.

Baker has said"
"Of course this case will be appeal
ed to the supreme court" continued
Mr.. Baker, sand we feel confident that
the questions we have raised will re-
suit in decision in favor of Mr.. Fish
