Chicago. Sept. c5.-S Sheriff Peter Hoffman and six of his jailers and superintendents and two prisoners Terry Druggan and Frank Lake spent an unhappy day before Fed eral Judge Wilkcrson in efforts to show why they should not be pun ished for contempt for the dscharg- ing of the prisoners before their terms expired and for liberties they enjoyed outside and inside the jail.
 Capt Wesley Westbrook, former superintendent of the jail, defend- ant placed the entire blame for the good times" the prisoners enjoyed on the sheriff, He told of being in- structed to put the beer partners in the hospital. Morris Eller, sanitary district trustee, and Lawrence F. King. president of the district, were present he said. King had nothing

 "I have no interest in the matter except that l know them politically and they are good fellows"
 While the rule allows visitors only one day a week, they were allowed every day to Druggan. The sheriff is quoted.
 Now, I don't know anything very bad about these fellows; there are worse people outside of jail. They have lot of high class friends on the outside. Anything in the way of little favors done for them you just take care of yourself, Under- stand 2"
 Westbrook continued:
 'Druggan refused to so to the den- tist except with l'oerst alone and without another guard. He said he didn't give a damn about it. That he had apologized to me once for telling me that he was as good a man as l was and that he'd be damned if he'd do it again.
 "Elc said that until I came back lie had the run of the jail could go where he pleased and have some comfort"
 What about the rumored s2o,- 5o0?" was the important topic to- day It was rulnored that Druggan and Lake would tell about it. They didn't, though they talked to federal They may have receiv- cd offers of consideration, not im- munity, if they would only tell the truth; whom they bribed to get most favored treatment at the jail.
 Those close to Druggar and Lake say clean breast of it Is likely, and one added: If Druggan tells, and lns may he will corroborate Deputy Warden Fred Strassheim."
 Strassheim said Druggan told him he had paid s2o,5OO to Westbrook.

RODGERS FAvORS
 ADVISORY BOARD
Endorses Committee to Work
 With AImy-Nayy

San Francisco, Sept. 25 N)-lGm- phatic endorsement of an advisory air board such as that called by President Coolidge, to operate in conjunction with the army and navy departments for the development of this country's air service, was voiced by Commander John Rodgers at a banquet rendered him and the four members of the crew of the navy seaplane PN-9 No. 1. last night.
 The air board which Commander Rodgers recommended, would not have the breadth of power of that advised by Colonel William Mitchell.
 Commander Rodgers defended the navy department in its conduct of the attempted San ITrancisco-lla ian flight and in general in its han ding of naval air affairs. He denied that he or any of his men had been compelled against their wills and better judgment" to attempt the Hawaiian flight. The men in the naval air service as in other branches, do not need pushing ahead so much as they need holding back" he declared,
 This was exemplifled in tho ac- ton Of the pilots of land planes sent out to search for us and who disre- garded radio instructions from their commander to turn to their base when fear arose that such search by land planes was too hazardous. When these pilots finally returned with fuel tanks nearly empty and their commander demanded 10 know why they had not obcyed instruc- lions to return sooner, they replied as one man that they had failed to receive his instructions.
 The air service is most import ant and we should not leave its de- velopment for future generations, We should do everything in our power to develop the science of fly ing with both land and scaplanes. This country should have a com petent advisory air board, not be- cause the army and navy depart ments are not competent to super wise aircraft development but so that in an emergency there will not he flood of idle criticism directed at what some have been pleased 10 call swivel chair hureaucrats'."

WHERE LAND VALUES
 WENT HIGH

A small Item in the Herald yes. terday gave q sidelight upon mount. ing land values such as Is not exact ly an everyday occurrence. Mrs. Drusilla Carr and her husband 50 years ago settled upon desolate spot in northwestern Indiana, along the shores Of Lake Michigan. The land was regarded as worthless al- though the budding city of Chicago was only S5 miles away.
 The couple lived there undisturb- cd for nearly 40 years. Meanwhile tho husband died and Mrs. Carr naturally inherited the "squattors rights" 10 the land.
 A little more than ten years ago Judge Gary of the Steel Corpora ton decided 10 build steel mills in the vicinity. The site was chosen because network of railroad tracks were near at hand as they closed In on Chicago; and in addi- ton, there was lake frontage. Not only that, the land was valued at next to nothing.
 The city of Gary. with It's miles Of steel mills sprang up. The widows land leaped in value. She was sued for title by realty adventurers who would never have come there had 1t not been for the steel devclop- ment. She won a million dollar vic- tory. Several years later she was again sued for a smaller tract and yesterday won another victory, this time to the tune of s25o,0O0.
 The Carr land case" attracted much attention In the middle west. The courts through their verdicts thoroughly established that squat ters' rights" mean as much after the land becames valuable as be- fore. Mrs. Carr was not disturbed when the land was worthless; the court held she was entitled to be equally free of disturbance when it became valuable.
