WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-'FIso-
lationist America is now head over
heels in European affairs was
the paradoxical but friendly com
ment in diplomatic circles here to-
day following future Secretary of
State Kellogg's s signing of the Par
is reparations agreement. The
Dawes plan regulating Europe was
unofficially fathered by the new
vice president and is now formally
adopted by the president. it was
said. 49,.
MIR. Coolidge was described as a
tightrOpe walker, driven by Amcri-
ca s economic and financial state
in Europe but trying to keep from
falling off into the dreaded abyss
of political entanglements. Euro
pean observers think it is impOs-
sible. Many believe this govern,
ment is already deeply involved in
unrecognized political commit
ments.
Officials reply, however, Ameri-
can delegates did not actually sign
the Dawes protocol and claim that
Yesterdays Paris pact confers IL
privilege without an obligation
But they admit the latter makes
payment of American damage claims

upon collection OF reparations from
Germany and that raises the ques-
ton of force and sanctions which
France already is applying against
Germans.
Here Are Factors
Other factors in the alleged
American involvment in Europe
are:
1.-Political Influence of Ameri-
ca as a creditor nation on her deb
tor nations. Unfounded debts may
lead, ;as the allies desire, to q gen
eral pooling and reduction Of Anne
rican and inter-allied debts. Presi-
dent Coolidge is said to favor stop
ping loans and private credits to
foreign governments using the mon
ey for armaments, which is resent
ed abroad as political interference.
2.-Participation in league of ma
tions protocols on traffic in white
slaves, arms and drugs. Failure of
the American anti-drug control in
India an the Orient and presents
an American European conflict.
3.-Adherence with reservations
to the league of nations world
court, supported by the administra-
tion. How to preserve the Monroe
doctrine, excluding European par
ticipation in western hemisphere af-
fairs while American nations are
participating in an international

Summit of Longs
Peak Claims
5Lives

DENVER, Jan. 16.-Five lives
have been sacrificed to wind
worn summit of Longs Peak,
14,255 feet high, since its slopes
became mecca for mountain
climbers. Few peaks in Amer
lea are reckoned more difficult
to scale.
Miss Carrie J. Walton, a New
England woman, lost her life
September %, 1884, under cir
cumstances almost parauel to
those which claimed the life of
Miss Agnes Vaille, Monday.
The terrific force of the wind
sapped her strength until she
died from exhaustion while her
companion was bringing aid
The body of Gregory Aubu-
chon was found in September,
1921, at the base of the half
mile high precipice, scaled sue
cessfully by Miss Vaille and
Walter Kiener, Sunday. His bo-
dy had been hunted two months
with the aid Of field glasses.
The third victim was j. e.
Greeley, Colo, killed instantly
by lightning on August 1, 1922,
while standing by the Stone
Cairn which marks the highest
spot on the table like crest of
the peak.
Miss Agnes Vaille and Her
bert Sortland are the fourth and
fifth victims.

Is Noise"
Say Truck
Drivers

Main street, between Fourth
and the railroad tracks was
regular bedlam for over five
minutes this morning, with
screeches and shriu cries break
ing the ordinary quiet of an or
derly town.
Heard from a short distance,
the noise sounded like murder
being committed in wholesale
lots.
The commotion was caused
by the transfer of several dozen
pigs from one TRUCK 20 anoth-
er. Two husky men were do
ing the transferring and as
each grabbed porker the air
was cut with shrill cries from
the protesting piggy.
Ellis Parker Butler once said
Pigs Is Pigs but this morn
ing s demonstration would tend
to prove that Pigs is noise. -

HART

Ex-Governor Hart has been ar
rested, charged with soliciting an
Illegal fee in connection with the
liquidation of the Scandinavian
American bank of Tacoma. Guy
Kelley and Forbes Haskell are two
of the complainers Mr.. Hart has
secured as his attorney to defend
him Maurice Langhorne, a prom
inent democratic lawyer of Taco
ma. There will be a big ado at the
trial, but the News-Record would
wager a plugged nickel that the
ex-governor is acquitted. Mr..
Hart was an accident in the first
place, but most people who know
him look upon him as big bod
lied, good-natured, easy-going, Or
binary citizen. We doubt very
much if he would be foolish
enough to solicit a hunk of the
fees as the allegations indicate.
Such things are usually done
though a third party, and the
long political experience of Louis
Hart would be sufficient know
ledge for him to have displayed a
little more foxy tactics if he desir-
ed to put such deal over. We
believe the ordinary jury would
so regard the matter.

EDITORIAL
THIS WEEK
NOTHING TO DO

Some people with nothing to do
but gossip often get themselves
and others into trouble by idle
chatter. This fact showed up re-
Gently when a rumor was going
the rounds that a move was on to
discontinue all the island postoffi-
ces but the one at Vashon. No one
seems to. have heard anything a.
bout it but the few gossipers who
started the tale. The criminal IL
bel law wont touch these irrespon-
sible chatterers but decent people
who have a respect for the truth
will learn to shun them. So far
as the post office tale" is con-
cerned it is a joke. There are eight
post offices on the island now and
the News-Record wishes there
were sixteen. The more the mer-
rier,... A centralized post office at
Vashon would do more to retard
the islands development than all
the present gossipers, if that is
possible. People who haven't any
more to attend to than chatter
imagine, slur, and knock should
leave decent and honest people a
lone until they find at least q
grain of truth in The tales they
circulate. You tell'em the News
Record says so.

side aerial. By turning up the
rheqtats that control the current
to the detector and radio frequency
tubes, and by turning the dial Op-
Grating the inductance for the aer-
playground circuit for little finer
adjustment, he found that the sta
tions came in very well. But still
in duet fashion
At this point Mrs. Smith caught
strains of favorite air being sung
by the diva, and put in a plea for
prompt action on our part.
Come on, Smith," 1 urged. Lets
split these stations. Let's have a
pencil with a new eraser"
Smith was probably thinking of
an ak, so the simplicity Of my re-
quest nearly staggered him. How
ever, his vest pocket proved to be
holding exactly what we needed.
He watched me suspiciOusly as
pressed the end of the eraser
against the pane right next to the
edge of one of the dials. He thought
L was taking liberties with the
situation but soon changed his
mind when, as I gave the pencil a
fraction of a turn, the saxaphone
suddenly vanished, leaving the
opera favorite's voice clear as a
bell.
That's splitting the stations" I
explained. 'The pencil helped by
giving the dial the smallest pos
sible turn"
Let's try it on one of the other
dials," he suggested. Maybe the
station will come in still better"
Needless to say Smiths sugges-
tion was voted down by all pres
ent. None of the audience knew
a thing about radio except that
when you get something worth
while it's common sense to let well
enough alone.
If Smith had got nothing more
out of the evening he would have
prof1tted enormously.

Open Cars Are Still
The Greatest Sellers

Despite the growing general
tendency toward the closed type of
car, the touring car is the biggest
selling automobile in America.
Severe weather gives closed cars
great sales impetus and in the
north sections of the country where
the climate is rigorous, the closed
types are favorites. In ''fair wea-
ther' districts, however, the pre-
ference for open cars of family
size is sufficiently pronounced to
turn the balance for the entire ma.
tion.
In this connection reports of the
Ford Motor company show a de-
mand for touring cars which is
unusual for this season of the year
and which calls for a production
The Winslow mail., 1925-11-20

of 10000 of these cars during Oc-
tober.
The touring car always has been
the most popular in the Ford line.
The exceptional demand at the
present time, however, may be ac-
counted for by the new features of
comfort and convenience which
have been incorporated in the i'm
proved types.
Addition of a door at the driv-
er's left, storm curtains which af-
ford complete protection and open
with the doors, greater leg room
and a more attractive appearance
in the general lines of the car have
all contributed to bringing increas-
ed popularity to the five-passenger
open type car.

John Smith and His RADI0
NO. 10: SPLITTING STATIONS U0VEV
One of a Weekly Articles Popular Rado-Copy
rghted, 1926, by UIlman Feature

With an opera favorite scheduled
10 watt her glorious voice over the
mir the Smiths felt that it was a
good opportunity to invite a num-
Der of friends to listen in with
them, and accordingly a list was
pr pared. But when the eventful
evening arrived a surprise came
with it.
Only a handful of those invited
showed up. The absentees, as the
Smith, learned, were listening in
over their own machines.
you'd think they'd come over
and hear a good machine" Smith
complained. "a lot of those peo
pie with small sets will be spelling
the whole business On nights like
this radio audiences ought to get
together for their common good" ="
That's all very interesting" |
agreed, "but aren't you overlook
ing the fact that many of these
people know more about their sets
than you do, and get better results
accordingly? If they came over
here you might easily help them
miss the concert altogether"
Don't worry about that" he
boasted 81 can get one of the sta
tions broadcasting this artistic any
way"
That remained to be seen. And
one began to doubt that he would
make good when, finding that three
of the stations were a little too
distant, Smith went on to a fourth
one where he usually encounters
interference.
''Why doesn't WHOG get off the
air on night like this?' he grum-
bled, fddling with the dials only
to lose the station he wanted.
Probably for the same reason
that the Household Furnishing
company didn't liquidate the day
your firm opened up in competi-
ton I retorted. eff there is any
thing in comparisons, you'll prob
ably find there's room for both
stations even on your set"
The audience grew restless as an
orchestral prelude to the star act
of the concert passed into history,
and Smith suddenly realized that
it was time for action. He had not
even tuned out WHOG.
Suddenly there was jazz effect
from the loud-speaker, soprano
r otes in a curious blend with those
+ ON a saxaphone. Anyone but
mith would have known that he
vas getting two stations at once
and getting one about as well as
another.
t.T'ye an idea" he announced.
Sometimes I can get different eff
fects by switching from my out
side aerial to the inside one, or to
the loop. I'll try that, anyway"
This seemed to give the audience
some hope, so | didn't interfere
Not that I was sure it would give
him desired results, but just be-
cause chance might help him put
the set into proper tune with the

What Smith found in this case
however, was that his interfering
stations were about the same dis
tance away and transmitting with
equal intensity on about the same
wave length. When he cut down
the length of aerial he simply
weakened the signals from each
station equally.
