HARDING IN IDAHO
Sidelights On Presidents Visit
at POCatello.

Among the numerous sidelights
of the visit of President Harding
to Idaho was the attention attract
ed by the expeditions telephone
service afforded the special train,
says the editorial news sheet from
Boise.
Before the train came to full
stop at Pocatello, where the prin-
cipal Idaho speech was made, the
linemen were alongside connecting
wires as they kept up with the
moving train. BY the time the
train was placed the telephone
circuit was in operation on the
train and in less than two minutes
members of the party, including
press representatives, secured
connections with Washington, New
York and other points.
Another interesting feature elec-
trical was the amplifier arrange
ment, which enabled the president
to speak without straining his
voice so he could be heard by those
900 feet away as distinctly as by
those standing around the end OF
his car
The presidents voice was caught
by micraphones placed on the rear
platform and carried to the ampli-
fiers on top of the car, so arranged
as to number and angle that his

ceded the program of water sports

except one, ladies' race, i'll which

voice was projected in all direc-
tions.
A very unusual thing happened
at Pocatello. After the president
had finished his speech, he was
presented with a horseshoe made
by Boise smithy from iron taken
from a neckyoke found at the
scene of the massacre by Indians
of Idaho pioneers. The president
did the unprecedented thing of
making another speech, with the
horseshoe as his text, urging the
people to get back to more
simple life.
A large number of newspaper
men of Idaho greeted the president
at Pocatello and Idaho Falls. The
president was most cordial in his
reception of the writer's. He is
himself practical newspaper man.
Guy Flenner, the oldest newspaper
man In the state in point of service,
enjoyed several minutes talk with
the president in his car and rode
on the presidential train north
from Pocatello. He told the presi-
dent the newspaper men of Idaho
were still using "black" not "red."
"The best color of ALL" said the
president. s'Tell the boys to stay
with it."

SURPLUS HAS GROWN
Government Revenues Exceed
Expenditures.

Complete figures covering the
governments financial operations
for the fiscal year ending Saturday,
June 80, made public Sunday by
the treasury showed receipts for
the II months of 81, oo7, IS, 4So
and expenditures of s., 697.478,-
o2o, indicating surplus eff s3o9,-
657,46o, says a Washington
dispatch.
At the close of business Satur-
day night the government owed
$22, 34o,7o7, 365 on outstanding
securities. This total represents
a reduction in the IL months OF
s6I 3, 674,3 342, of which S4o2, $50,
4oI was taken into account in
compiling the "ordinary"or budget
expenses of the government. From
the surplus on hand, the treasury
applied total of S2Io, 1851 to
reducing its obligations.
Part of the success in building
up a surplus while at the same
time the public debt was reduced
was traced by the treasury to the
administration's tariff policy. An
other factor is reduced expenses.

CALL FOR BOOKS
No Drop In Circulation Although
Method Is Changed.

Despite the predictions of librarians
in cities where the closed stack system
has been in vogue for many years, the
inauguration of that system of guard
ing books in the San Antonio public
library has not resulted in an appre-
ciablc falling off in circulation statis-
tics, Mrs. Frances Humphrey, the IL
brarian has reported.
When the new system was adopted.
librarians in other cities. all of whom
are heartily in favor of the closed stack
system. warned the San Antonio IL
brarian that the circulation would
probably drop for six or eight months
but that it would eventually reach its
normal level .
During the month following the in
stallatiOn of the system. April /. there
was a decrease in the circulation of IL
brary books. Since the first month,
however. the circulation has normally
increased.
In June. 1922. there were 1854
volumes circulated. In June of this
year. there were 1899 volumes in cir
culation. Circulation statistics for
July, 1922, show that 1865 books
were in use as compared with 14,520
during the corresponding month of this
year.
Under the new system. patrons of
the public library are not allowed to
enter the room where the majority Of
the books are stored. Books are
brought by request to the patrons who
must sign for the books before they are
delivered to them. Several hundred
reference and popular books. however,
are placed upon the open shelves where
they are available 70 the public.

GUERRA BROTHERS
GIVEN $4,000 BAIL
ON MURDER CHARGE
Son of Slain Man Testifie;
Before Justice Ben
S. Fisk.

Jose Marin Guerra and Noverto
Guerra, charged by complaint WITH
the murder of Joe Delgado near
Elmendorf Friday afternoon, were re-
leased on $1,000 bail each, following
preliminary hearing before Justice
of the Peace Ben $. Fisk Saturday
afternoon. Martin Delgado, son of
the slain man, was the only wit
ness TO testify at he hearing. A
summary of young Delgado's testimony
was filed with the complaint.
According to the statement made
by DelgadO he and his father had
left San Antonio about 3 80 in the
afternoon, having stopped at several
stores to make purchases. When
about twelve miles from town he
said he heard loud report as il a
tire had blown out. He leaned out
TO look at his tires, swerving the
truck slightly to the left side of the
road. As he did so t6pck contain
ing two men, passed him to the
right.
At this instant his father lurched
toward him and on to his shoulder
He did not know his father was shot,
Delgado said, until he saw the blood
flowing from wound in his head
Blood covered the boys shoulder. The
boy took the number of the truck,
placed his fathers body in the rear
and drove rapidly toward home. Eli
route he secured the assistance of n
passerby as he "felt weak" Accord
ing TO the boys statement. he and his
father had n pistol under the seat
of their truck, tied securely in can
vas bag. The pistol was turned over
to the sheriff's department.
Jose Maria Guerra surrendered
at the county Jail Friday night
while Noverto was arrested by Sheriff
Stevens and Deputy Sheriff Subira
Saturday morning. The shooting of
DelgadO is said 10 have been the re-
suit of grudge growing out of the
killing of III. Guerra about seven
years ago. The Ninety-fourth Dis
triet Court grand jury which is now
in session. probably will begin an in
vesugation into the killing the early
part of the week.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO
OPEN SEPTEMBER 10,
SUPERINTENDENT SAYS
No Delay But CROWDED.
Conditions Will Not Be
Relieved.

Contrary to current rumors, the
opening of the fall term of the San
Antonio public schools will not be
delayed because Of the unfinished
building program, DIR. Jeremiah
Rhodes, superintendent of public
schools, has announced, to correct the
impression that the upblic schools will
not be opened, Monday, September
10, as scheduled.
Although the school board has TAX
en- no formal action as yet. the mat
ter of obtaining the school boards
official approval of the opening date
will be presented at the next regular
meeting, DIR. Rhodes said. 1t is gen.
orally understood that the opening
date will be September 10, at the con-
ciusion Of the teachers institute, al
though the school board must official
ly set the date.
The coming school year will open
with as great seating capacity avail
able as was last year since the build
ing program will not in any manner
interfere with the class rooms that
were in use last term. The Frank
johnson school, South Flores and
Guilbeau streets, which was traded by
the school board together with a cash
consideration for the Electric Park
site, will be rented by the school board
until one of the new buildings is
ready. ... ~
Crowded conditions will necessar-
lily exist during the early part of the
fall term, DIR. Rhodes believes. The
natural increase in the scholastic pop
ulatiOn will aggravate the crowded
until the building program
is at least partly completed.
As in the past, halliday sessions
will be necessary, DR.. Rhodes predicts.
A number of buildings, he says, will
be in use from s o'clock in the morn
ing until o'clock in the afternoon.
This matter, however. is an admins
trative one, the details of which are
to be worked out when the approx
mate attendance has been determined.
