10 open the station August 1 with due
ceremonies and an excellent program,
details of which are being arranged by
Ralph Edmunds, program manager,
formerly identified with several opera

Mr.. Edmunds' active contacts with

and executing exceptional broadcast

WRC is duplicate of the X. W. New

about one-half k. w. of power will be
used. All parts of the transmitter are
in duplicate, so that in the event of a

est to mariners; this famous spark set
installed in December, 1912, was re-
placed recently by new tube trans
mitter.
Operating on the same wave length,
1850 meters, the new set will carry
all the governmental broadcasting
formerly done on the spark. Although
its power is not quite as great, the
range of the tube set by tests has
proven little greater than the old

almost constant operation, the Fes-
sender set Is to be retired from active
service, and 1t is understood that II

corded to the early locomotive of
Baldwin and the Morse telegraph key.

new PENSION BILL
Declares Tn atExpenditures Proposed
in Increasing Pensions is Not
Justified.

Washington.-The Bursom bill. pro-
viding for an increase in the pensions
of Civil War and Mexican War veter-
ans, was vetoed today by the president.
In his veto message the president de-
clared the increase in governmental ex-
penditures involved would amount to
"heedlessness" and objected also to the
bills loose provision for pensioning
widows. In a brief message returned
TO the senate where the biz originated
the president said:
Il am returning herewith senate bill
S275, AN act granting pensions TO GER
tain soldiers, sailors and marines of
the Civil War, etc. without my APP
prevail.
eff the act were limited to is pro-
vision in behalf of the survivors of
the Mexican and Civil wars and wild
ows of the war Of 1912, it would still
be without ample justification. The
commissioner of pensions estimates it's
additional cost to the treasury to be
about sos, 100000 annually and ven
ture the prediction that with such a
precedent established the ultimate
pension outlay in the half century
before US will exceed fifty billions of
dollars"

COL. HARVEY GUEST
OF HARDING TODAY
Ambassador to Great Britain Lays
Before the President His
Observations.
(By Assoeiated Press LEASED wirel

by Associated FreSS Leased Wlrej
Washington, D. c. Ambassador
Harvey was the guest of the Presi-
dent at the White House today on his
first visit to Washington since going
to his London post.
Since his arrival last night from
New York, when he was taken directly
to the White House, Colonel Harvey
had made no statement on the pur-
poses connected with his visit. Broad
ly, however, he comes to lay before the
President and his advisers in personal
conference the results of his close OBJ
servation of the economic and other
problems of Europe from the vantage
point of his London post.
His visit, perhaps significantly, coin
cides with the adjourned meeting of
the allied premiers now being held in
Paris after the London conference in
an effort to reach an accord on the
vexing problems of German repara-
tions. Colonel Harvey's presence here
at this time, it is suggested, affords a
direct means of putting administration
officials in intimate touch with all the
background of developments as they
take shape at the Paris conference, to
which they are known to be giving
closest attention.

Paris-The cabinet council of French
ministers this morning instructed Pre-
mier Poincare to move in the confer
ence this afternoon the adoption of
the French PREPARATIONS plan as the
minimum acceptable to France. In the
event the meeting does not accept that
plan Premier Poincare was directed to
ask the conference to register formally
lack Of agreement among the Allies.
The council met under the chair
manship of President Millerand, and
decided unanimously that the British
PREPARATIONS plan was an abandonment
of the treaty of Versailles
M. Poincare, it was forecast, will
add that the British scheme for super
vising the execution. of the new ar
rangement practically makes Germany
the arbitrator in questions that may
come up concerning the payment of
her own debts.
Premier Poincare after the meeting,
continued to receive important mem
bers of the government, among them
Louis Barthou, president of the re-
parations commission, and Finance
Minister de Lasteyrie, in preparation
for his declaration to be made to the
conference at the o'clock meeting.
In this announcement the French
premier is expected to declare. that the
British plan demands of France that
she COVE up every guarantee she. has
that any arrangement adopted will be
carried out by Germany.

COURTS MUST DECIDE
MARINETTE SHERIFF
Governor Blaine Notifies Contenders
for Office That Question is
Judicial One.

Madison, Wis. Governor Blaine
sent kilograms today to former Sher-
iff John H. Doberstein and Sheriff Os-
car Dahl, of Marinette county, advis-
ing them that the question of title to
the Office of sheriff in their county,
contested by Doberstein, is a judicial
question that will not be settled by
the states executive,
The former sheriff held conference
with the governor yesterday afternoon
during which he asked the executive to
use force to expel Dahl from Office be-
cause of his act in entering the jail
and taking possession when Doberstein
was away Dahl was elected recently
at special election which his pre-
decessor claims to have been illegal.
@The power of the court is broad
enough to protect and enforce each
ones right without resort to violence, .
Governor Blaine said in his message.
''The courts, in the name of the pub
lie, for the preservation of the public
peace and in vindication of public dig
nifty, will command peace and obedi-
ence to the orderly forms of law" his
telegram continued.
"The executive, only in the gravest
situation involving the public peace
will exercise executive authority. The
executive cannot concern himself with
individual controversies. l trust that
instead Of force or violence an orderly
court procedure will be resorted to.
Only such policy is in harmony with
peace-loving, law-abiding public

BRITISH DELEGATES MAY QUIT.

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Paris The British delegates to the
Allied conference at an informal meet
ing this morning practically decided
to accept the French reparations plan
as basis for discussion provided Pre-
mier Poincare agreed to discuss the
British plan. In this way Premier
Bonar Law would seek to place the
burden of responsibility for break
up of the conference on the shoulders
of Premier Poincare.
The British premier plyanned to
speak at the Allied meeting at 8 o'clock
this afternoon and tell Premier Poin-
care that the British were willing to
discuss the French plan if the British
and other plans we're discussed at the
same time.
If Mr.. Poincare should refuse to ex-
anime the British further, Mr.. Bonar
Law, according, to the present decision
will announce that the British see no
need for further conference.

mend that the new building commit

tract with such contractors as in the
judgment of your committee are the
low bidders and are the most desir-

From all information your committee
has been able to obtain on building

if Kenosha county is to have the much

BULLETIN.

(By Associated Press Leased Wire)
Paris--The Allied conference on
reparations adjourned this evening
until 3 O'Clock tomorrow afternoon,
thus avoiding the Immediate break
which had been expected in many
quarters.
More than two hours after the
opening of session the doors Of the
conference room were still closed
and no indication of the trend of
the discussions was available.
Later it was learned that Pre-
mier Poincare had occupied two
hours in explaining the French po-
sition to the conference after which
tea was served to the delegates.
The impression gathered from
BOnar Laws opening remarks when
the conference was resumed after
tea, was that he desired to avoid
a rupture of the conference and
was disposed to be concilatory.

NEW POSTOFFICE
IN 1928 ESTIMATE
Officials In Washington
Ask Appropriation for
This City.
GETS new BACKING
Action of Department in Rec
ommending New Building
May Bring Action.

Messages from Washington this aft
ernoon brought by the Associated
Press announce that Postmaster Gen
eral Work and Secretary of the Treas
ury Mellon reported to Congress to-
day asking an appropriation of $400,-
900 for the erection of new postof1ce
in Kenosha. The announcement of the
action taken by the federal officials
came as surprise in Kenosha as it
was not known that department activi-
ties had gone forward to such an ex
tent that a direct call upon Congress
would be made. If the appropriation
asked is granted the government would
expend close to half million dollars
in Kenosha for the site and the new
postoffice building. It is estimated
that the present postofice building and
site can be sold at a price near to
$75, 900 and it is understood that the
government agents who have investi-
gated the Kenosha situation have
counted on this income from the old
building.
Linked With Other Cities.
The recommendation of the two fed
eral officials asking the appropriation
for Kenosha links it with the demands
for over lao other cities in the nation
in the nature of request for a gen
eral appropriation for building purpos-
es. The appropriation asked for is in
the neighborhood of $40 900, 900 and it is
declared that the Kenosha item is ore
of the largest contained in the bill.
Other big items asked in the bill were
appropriations of 100000 for Jackson,
Mich, and $65o,O0o for Duluth, Mimi.
Other appropriations called for in
the bill were:
Janesville, Wis, $125,OOO; Oshkosh,
Wis, $35O000; Manitowoc, Wis, $155,
900; Racine, Wis, $150,000; Wausau,
Wis, 100000; Sheboygan, Wis, $780,
900.
1t is expected that this report from
the two departments will be immedi-
ately worked into an appropriation bill
and it is possible that the bill will be
passed during the present session Of
Congress rather than lay over to the
new Congress.
Must Work From This End.
With the announcement that the fed
eral officials have taken interest in the
situation of Kenosha there must be a
lot of immediate work done from this
end and it is expected that an active
organization to push the claims of Ke-
nosha will be organized at once. City
officials have declared their willingness
to make the organization one fostered
by the municipality.

ficials have seen the need Of Kenosha
and are willing to do their part" said

He told the police that man had come
into the bar-room and demanded $500.

the price of the sum mentioned. The
stranger was told to clear out.
