ALBANIA VIEWS DEATH
OF AMERICANS AS A
NATIONAL CALAMITY
Entire City of Tiirana
Ceases Business During
Mourning Period.
BY HIRAM X. MODERWELL.

By Radio to The San Antonio Light
and the Chicago Daily News.
Copyright, 1924.
Rome, April 10.-The entire city OF
Tirana. capital of Albania, ceased bus
mess for five minutes at noon Tues
day and parliament suspended its ses-
sion in token of regret over the as
sassination of Americans by bandits
near Scutari.
This Is the first occurrence of the
kind in recent years and is regarded
by the Albanians as n veritable ma
tioual tragedy since it tends to create
the belief that the country is unsafe
or hostile to foreigners.
The correspondent is informed from
source which he believes trustwor-
thy that the murders were merely Il
sinister move in Balkan politics The
Albanian government claims to have
definite proof that the murder was
organized and paid for by agents of
a neighboring Balkan nation seeking
to discredit Albania. The bullets.
however, struck the Americans by mis-
take.
Since the country has long been the
victim of similar plots. this appears
credible. The government is taking Wig
orous measures to find the mruderers
and promises TO inflict the death
penalty.

COURT RULES TRUE
STATEMENTS DO NOT
CONSTITUTE LIBEL
Amarillo Newspaper Wins
Case in Texas Su-
q. preme Court. ..,,l

Austin, Tex, April 1O.-Texas
newspapers won a substantial victory
on the question of libel by the decision
of the supreme court Wednesday.
When that tribunal held that ''the
showing under proper pleadings that
statements claimed to be libelous are
true is a perfect defense to a charge
of libel"
The effect of this decision is that
if a statement printed by newspaper
is proven to be true and no malice is
shown for its publication. it is a per-
feet defense. This important decision
was in the case of J. Il. Num-. pub
Usher of the Amarillo Daily News,
against George c. Webster. tax as
SCISSOR and collector of Dallam county.
1T is idle to say that one must
show perfect defense before he can
avail himself of the defense of Il sup
posed privilege" said the opinion Of
the court.
Webster instituted this suit against
Num- to recover damages. alleging
that the publication of a story rela-
tive to the discharge of Webster's
chief clerk "was libelous, and was
published by Num- with knowledge
that same was false and with mali
cious intent to iniure him.
Mum answered by general denial
and plea "that the alleged publication
was privileged. in that the defendant
in error was a public officer. and n
candidate for public office; that the
article published was a matter Of pub
lie concern. and published for gen
eral information and that same was
not malicious and was not made for
wrongful intent or intent to injure."
This contention was sustained by tie

important in History

RICHMOND. Va, Dec. 26.-Salt-
vile, the scene of the Christmas eve
flood, although little known to the
world outside its Blue Ridge noun
tain walls, has played an important
and peculiar part in history.
1t was Saltville that gave the ar
mics of the Confederacy their chief
salt supply when that commodity was
at premium in the blockaded south.
During the Revolution salt from the
Holston Valley made the scanty ra-
tions of General William Campbell's
Colonials more palative. In the mar
kets of the south since the discovery
of the salt deposits in 174S salt from
the town has been sold.
First known to history as the Salt
Lick hunting grounds of the Indians
the valley In which Saltville is situ-
ated was explored by a party of Vir-
GINA colonists, to one of whom,
Charles Campbell, King George l of
England made a grant of the lower
valley.
During the Revolution, the saline
deposits were owned and operated by
General William Campbell. the hero
OF the battle of Kings Mountain.

EVACUATION ACTION

PARIS, Dec. 26 (By The Associ-
ated Press) The allied council OF
ambassadors at its meeting here
tomorrow is expected to confirm the
decisions taken by the British and
French governments not to evacuate
the Cologne bridgehead January Is.
The ambassadors in addition, 1t is
forecast. will send a memorandum
to Berlin explaining the decision.
They are not expected to go much
further with the matter, however,
pending the receipt of the final re-
port from the military control mis-
sion concerning the status of German
disarmament, which may be forth
coming the latter part of January.
One reason for the cautious atti-
tude on the part OF the ambassadors
is found here in the different view
points of the French and British
governments on the question. The
French demand that the evacuation
be deferred because of the discovery
by the control mission of clandes-
timely manufactured arms and other
evidences OF violations of the treaty
OF Versailles. The British base their
decision on the fact that the final re-
port of the mission is not ready. and
that the evacuation ought not to pre-
cede 1t.
There Is an inclination in political
circles to anticipate that the final
British decision. after the receipt of
the complete report. will be to evae-
uate, after the receipt of the COM
plete report. will be to evacuate.
while Premier Herriot, whose per-
sonal inclina tions are known to be
in the same direction. would con-
cededly encounter great difficulties
in parliament if he approved the
evacuation In the face of the mis-
sion's recent discoveries

Heavy DAMAGE DONE IN 2 CHRISTMAS
FIRES HERE; STORES and PLANT BURN
CHRISTMAS SEASON WAS
MOST PROSPEROUS ONE

The Christmas season In this city
was one of the most prosperous in
the history of the city according to
the merchants. The holiday trade
filled the stores to capacity and 1t
became necessary for even the small
est shop in the city to employ special
salespeople in order to give the GUS
toners service. Although there were
the usual number of those who travel
from store to store viewing the dis
play, many of these found the temp
tation to purchase Christmas articles
SO great that they too entered into
the spirit of the accession and spent
freely.
One of the most amazing features
of the business, was the rapidity at
which the various merchants dis
posed of toys. In almost all the stores
of the city, the demand for toys be-
gan long before Christmas and con-
tinued up until closing time Wednes-
day night. From Monday until the
doors were closed on Wednesday
night, a continual line of people Wis.,
tied the toy departments of the larger
stores and patronized the stores deal
ing exclusively in toys. The stocks
in most instances became so low that
it was almost impossible for many to
obtain toys they desired
Even though it stormed on We'd
nesday, the streets were filled with
automobiles belonging to out of town
buyers, and at night 1t was hard to
find a place to park a car. The same
conditions prevailed IL not worse last
Saturday night. Several merchants
of the city. especially those dealing
in toys, report that people from
Newark and Elizabeth came to Perth
Amboy to purchase these articles
which gladen the hearts of the little
folks as they POUNDS the prices for
the same articles here lower than
elsewhere.
