Monopoly Scare Kill. Progress.

The United States Senate has
passed bill designed to prevent
monopoly of radio communication
and declares the air to be the
''inalienable possession of the
people" and prohibits licenses
extendingmore than two years.
Just what does this mean? Some
inventor, individual or company
must pioneer in field of radio before
any benefit from its use can be
derived by the people 1t is one
thing to prevent monopoly-quite
another to prevent progress and
development.
Air legislation is just in the max
ing. What it will eventually be no
one can tell. but the constant scare
about monopoly of the air will
prevent people from getting develop
ments in wireless communication
which should eventually become as
much a household necessity as the
electric light and the telephone.
Declaring the air to be the
'inalienable possession of the people
sounds fine. But what does it
mean if agencies for using it are
denied to the people?-Ex.
You can't teach an old dog new
tricks unless you are smarter than
the dog.
Expert testimony is the kind that
is accepted as fact because nobody
disputes it.
Honest is the best policy, even
though it doesn't always come out
ahead

Coca Cola King

Decatur, Ga, Mar. 7.-Reading of

ages brought by Mrs. Sarah Byfield,
beauty contest winner, against Wal
,er I. Gambler, SON of Asa G. Gambler,
Atlanta capitalist, was expected to
hegin with the opening Of court to-
day.
The suit resulted from an alleged
attack upon Mrs. Byfield by Gambler
early on the morning of July II, 1922,
in Mrs. Byfield's stateroom on a liner
en- route to Europe. Attorneys for
the plaintiff rested yesterday sfter
Clyde Byfield, automobile dealer and
clubman, his wife and two physicians
had testified and mass of documen-
tary evidence had been introduced.
The most sensational development
Of the trial yesterday was the cd
mission by Byfield that while on the
stand that approximately within 10
minutes after he had discovered Mr..
Gambler in his wife's state room he
had in his pocket Gamblers check for
$25,000. Late in testimony, he said,
Gambler exchanged the check for
$4,000 cash and check for $2O,5OO
and obtained signed statement
from Byfield exonerating him from
&all blame.
Mr.. Gambler later stopped payment
on the note, Byfield testified, and he
further said he had signed the state
ment exonerating Gambler because
he was "afraid Candler's. friends
were about to attack him."

During the period covered by this
report (the last five months Of 1929
the mill operated about 95 percent
time" says the audit report. "On
the basis Of 5000 barrels per day, it
exceeded capacity output. On the
basis of full time, however, the re-
cords show that for the month of
December the mill turned out '100,-
BAL barrels of flour and Semalina in
80 days, or an average of 1850 bar
rels per day. This was explained by
the mill superintendent as the results
of making few changes in the ma
chinery, increasing the capacity of
the mill about 10 percent"
There is an excellent accounting
system in the state mill, the auditor
reported.
Question On Loss
There may be question of wheth-
er the loss of $325,J9S.60 should be
increased by $75,224.35 interest due
on construction bonds issued, which
was not i'cludcd in the Bishop, Bliss
man report. Mr.. Lund was assigned
to verify the Bishop, Brissman re-
port. He sets up $75,224.35 interest
on construction bonds not included in
the Bishop, Brissman report. Asked
concerning this item, Mr.. Lund said
that he did not know whether it was
the intent to charge this interest due
the state treasurer on construction
bonds to the mill. If so, he said, the
amount would be added to the loss
shown.
