the practice but 1t was an easy work

the team. Harry Norbury Of Lewiston
is trying out for guard. He looks as
though he has the stuff to make good.
Lea Chisolm of Maiden. Mass. is out
for quarterback. Charles Bohn of
New Haven. Conn.,. is candidate for
halfback position. Bohn is also
punter of no mean ability. He and
Bill Dreuhl will alternate in the kick
ing department. Bohn can pass, kick
and carry the ball, and will make an
ideal triple threat. After brief
warming up, the squad was divided
into two teams and ran through a
dummy signal practice. Within a day

Radio and Real Estate.

Realtors must wake up to the fact
that a new element has entered into
the equation Of property selection
nowadays. Heretofore a model home
site had to be only this and that, such
as free from nuisances, close to con-
veyances and conveniences, healthful
and quiet, with good society within
reach. But now there is another fac
tor. To secure purchaser the realtor
must demonstrate that the house site
is free from static. 1t must, in short,
be a perfect radio station.
A man out in Washington State has
found his ideal home. Being a radio
fan he knew that conditions varied be-
tween lots and neighborhoods, and so
when he went house hunting he took
along his set and tested out the condi-
tions. He spent several weeks looking
for the right house. If a dwelling
looked satisfactory in It's outer form
and its inner arrangements 1t still had
to pass the supreme test. The home
seeker would take his apparatus out
at night and tune in and determine
the interferences. He had to pass up
up one house that met his wishes In
every respect, save that it was full Of
static. At last he got what he wanted,
and is happy.
Here is d tip to the promoters Of
subdivisions. 1t Is not a question of
hills and hollows, of natural advan-
tages, of accessibility. What are the
fadio conditions? If they are bad, leave
the land to lie idle, or to remain in
market gardening. For what this
Spokane man did others will do, and
The search for static will become gen.
eral. A bad radio condition will con-
denim an otherwise attractive location.
SO realtorism becomes, in truth, a
scientific pursuit. A radio expert will
perhaps be hereafter a vitality impor-
lant factor in every real estate office.

Shall Ships Be Scrapped?

A new complication has arisen in
connection with the proposed sale of
200 Government-owne cargo ships. 1t
now is doubted by the Shipping Board
or by some members of the board
whether it has authority in law to sell
these vessels for scrapping purposes,
and the matter has been put up to
President Coolidge with a view TO OBJ
tanning a ruling from the Department
OF Justice.
President Palmer of the Fleet Cor
poration has recommended acceptance
of Henry Ford's bid of $1,706, 600 for
the 200 vessels. Members Of the Ship
ping Board are disposed TO approve
the recommendation, but question as
to the meaning of the law having been
raised they are in quandary. The
merchant marine act as amended pro
vides for the sale of ships. but there
is a school of thought which contends
that Congress had in mind sales for
operating purposes only, that there
was no intention that vessels which
were undamag ged and still potentially
serviceable should be scrapped.
There is no doubt that British and
other shipping interests would be
glad to see these vessels sold 10 Ford
and converted into hivvers. 1t would
suit them equally well were the ships
taken out into the Atlantic and scut-
tied. These tied-up ships have long
,ot
the American merchant marine. The
British complain that the possibility
of their being put into. commission
operates to keep down ocean freight
rates, and also discourages new con-
struction, all to the detriment Of Brit
ish shipping and British shiphuiding
The British viewpoint, however, is
not one which need be taken seriously
into account in determining the mat
ter. The question is whether scrap
ping the ships would be good business
from the American viewpoint. If
there is any real doubt about the in
tentions of Congress ne ships ought
not to be scrapped until Congress has
had opportunity to make its meaning
clear. These vessels belong to the
American people, and Congress Is the
only agency entitled to speak for the
people in the matter of their disposal.
Certainly an administrative authority.
in doubt as to the construction Of the
law, would be taking long chances to
authorize their breaking up. 1t would
be much easier to destroy these ships
than 1t would be to replace them.

Proposed Anti. Gossip Law.

John Washington Butler of Tennes-
see, author OF the anti-evolution law.
is quoted as saying that he will intro
duce in the Tennessee Legislature q
bill to prohibit gossip. II this fellow
Butler does not quit butting into other
peoples rights he will get some folks
down on him. He would clip the wings
of liberty and pluck the plumes from
the tail of the American eagle. With.
out gossip there would be no conver.
sation. To rule out gossip would put
another dent in the free-speech provi-
sion of the Constitution. 1t would
destroy great and fiorishing industries
the afternoon tea, bridge party,
quilting bee and the sewing circle
Such legislation would make life duller
in small towns than it is. Besides, it
would be an unworkable law. The
ladies OF Tennessee would refuse to
obey it, and that would settle 1t. What
can the law and its constables do
with lady who refuses? 1t would
tend to bring the whole structure of
constables in Tennessee could not sup
press Illicit or moonshine gossip at
Four Corners, Three Oaks, Four Pines
or Sassafras Grove. The ladies would
rather let their hair grow and cast
the lip-stick into the fireplace than
submit to such evil-nay, worse than
that such ungallant legislation. The
ladies of Tennessee, like the ladies of
tkt other States, are the most impor-
tant as well as the loveliest part of
the population.
This man John Washington Butler,
who combines in his name the names
of two old and honored Virginia fam
lilies, Is getting too much illumination
traits that have made several men
candidates for the presidency, or one
man candidate several times and per-
haps all his life. One likes to think of

Washington Butler should let his
fame rest on the anti-evolution law.
He has stirred up enough trouble. His
proposal to prohibit gossip in Tennes-
see Is an attempt to tie the tongue of
manhood and womanhood 1t is a
brutal effort, and it can never sue

aside from habit which he claims
the right to practice under the rule of
ancient and immemorial usage.
