DENOTES LIFE ID
 BUILDING GROTTO
Iowa Priest Constructs Unique
 Monument

West Bend, Iowa, Dec. l9 R,--A grotto as a monument to Christ redemption. containing stones, ores. fossils, qualifications, shells and corals from every state in the un- ion has been erected here by the Rev, Father P. M. Dobberstein.
 Already some 1GS,000 visitors have come 10 soe the work since is construction was begun seven year, ago. Seven more years will be IT, quired to complete the task, whicn Father Dobberstein has assigned a- his life work. He has travelled many thousands of miles in quest ut stones, minerals, coral and oth,r articles, Nine car loads of materi have been used. Ten more will br needed. When finished the X, nt'N will cover almost a block,
 Tt is the avowed purpose of tho builder" Father Dobberstein saii. 'to leave tine grotto as work O. love for his fellow men. Thus tho grotto will Do Of value to all, teach ing the valuable use Of ones spare time and how every talent in q man may be uscfully employed by @ wise economy of ones spare time for the benefit of all"
 The priest, who is pastor Of s. Peter and Paul's Catholic church in this little hamlet, devotes all of his spare time 10 his task. He person. ally sets each piece of stone, coral or other article in cement, having adopted patience as a watChword iu his long undertaking, as a lesson To others.
 The grotto is reminiscent of the early church when Christians fearful of pagans bent on persecution, duS caves to prevent the doctrines Of the lowly Nazerene from falling into tn hands of their enemies. One section, called the "Garden of Eden, will symbolize disobedicnce to God. Tine tree of life will be shown worked in stone Adam and Eve who yielded to the tempter will be seen standing under this tree with their eyes raised bchoding the forbidden fruit. The serpent will be designei along wall winding around the tree with open mouth as grabbing the i apple. Underneath the tree will be 1 the inscriptions:
 Paradise lost"
 The grotto proper takes the leal- ing part of the whole cluster of the work.
 No journey seem too long for Ia ther Dobberstein in quest Of ma terial. His last trip carried him about 1000 miles. He has done con siderable other work along the sane line.

Through fife Static

A continuous chatter of electricity mopped up the atmosphere consid- erahly last evening, but otherwise conditions were ideal. Volume was everywhere and all stations were marked by the unusual cIearness of the night hcfore. shortly after II o'clock, our old friend, Joe Buzzer, started up and played a merry tune all over everything, Loud stations penetrated. Those not so loud did not.
 The Christmas carol concert from WTIC was by lar the best prcscnta- ton of chorus work we have yet heard on the air. Tho singers were placed so as to present to the radio audience the elaborate tone cOlor- ings and the great ensemble Of voices hlcnded in one great time of music. We didn't take the names of the various numbers as they appeared in yesterdays edition of the Her. ald," but We listened through prac- ilcalIy the entire concert, and will again remark that we have yet to hear anything else so well done in the line of chorus work. The difficult ties encountered when music or sing ing Is picked up from q stage was entirely overcome and the music sounded as if it was coming from nf h1 C 1linu A'rItf y1 proud. and 10 Dana $. Merriman, musical director, goes great deal Of credit for arranging the carols, which represented all countries and all ages. Mr. Merrim0n is also con- luCtOr Of the Choral club. We for got 10 remark about the unique opening, the singing of silent Night" off stage, the voices growing louder as the singers approached the lootlights.
 WI}I was also on the air with Christmas carols, the speciality being old faVoritos. Walter Marsh. bari tone, was in good voice and his ren- dition Of little Town of Bethlo- rem" was distinctly pleasing. WEES transmission was not so bad.
 
 Hoch and Jerome, two harmony singers. offered a popular recital from WHN, New York, which was
 made better by the fact that the station was behaving itself. Brown Eyes, Why Are You Blue, "He Left Her Behind Before," a nv one, and "Normandie," were the three num- bers We hcard-and enjoyed. Possessed of an appealing voice, which maintains the characteristic 1 drawn of the SouthW est, Charles $. Brown, the Farmer Poet of Arizona, presented a groupsof his own com positions, both humorous and ser ious, from WIS, Chicago, which sta ton was booming in with great cclat. He was interesting, and he made his readings interesting by the simple and direct way in which he offered them.

The next number to be played by the orehes- tra was modern dance arrange ment of Song of India" What Il hop, skip and jump that gang must have taken The announcer said they didn't mind crossing a couple of oceans in one jump. We came near springing that one about two jumps to get across river.
 Selections from the opera, "Lo- hengrin," together with 6 lengthy dissertation on the action of th piece by inc announcer, were featured from WPG last evening, the station being one of the loud ones. The music was furnished by the Hotel Traymore concert orchestra, and all though the talk was lengthy, 1t was enjoyable, inasmuch as no technical musical terms were used and the entire discourse was given in words of one syllable.
 WIG and WWJ were both plug ging away at sometime" at the same time. It was played as q dance number and We went from one 10 the other enjoying the experience met with when the grooves in a phonoeraph record arc worn and the needle travels twice over the same space.
 WMBF, Miami Beach, came through with its customary pep, dance music by the Fleetwood or ohestra being featured. If You See That Aunt of Mine" Wait Until To- lnorrow Night and "I've Got My Eyes On You" were the three we heard.
 WTIC was on the air shortly after l o'clock with a test program two transmtters being used. The station switched from one to the other, but our ear could detect no particular distance in quality or volume. The station certainly came in clear. the breathing of the announcer as he sat at the microphone being plainly audible.
 New Wayburn, Miss Nobody and several members of the cast and chorus Of the new twO-act musical comedy Honeymoon Cruise will entertain radio fans through WTlC on Monday evening, December 2l, at 7:15.
 The radio public will have fl chance to hear the song hits of this new production and once again hear the man who developed more FoiIies girls and dancers than perhaps any one else In the show business. MT. Wayburn will act as master of cere- monies and will do his own an nOuncing, a new role for him,
 The Traveller Insurance com pany's station at Hartford is the only one that will broadcast any part of the show, and from what MT. Wayburn says, we believe it to be the best show he ever produced ill his 2S years of experience in that business.
 That's all for today, thanks!

Move to Settle
Dispute Soviet
And Sinclair Oil Co.

Moscow Mar. 22-(By A. P.)-Fur-
ther efforts were made yesterday by
lawyers to settle the dispute between
the Soviet government and the Sin
clair oil interests, regarding the Sag
halin concession given the American
company.
The concessions committee Of the
government, through its attorneys,
offered to return to the Americans the
100000 rubles which the company
posted as guarantee TO carry out
the terms of the concession. The
committee also offered to negotiate a
new contract with the company COW
ering an named concession. After
consultation with their legal advisers,
the representatives of the Sinclair in
terests declined the offer.
Argument on the governments suit
for annulment of the contract was
then resumed before the Moscow dis
trict court.
Both sides to the controversy pre-
scented long interpretations of the
contract. The session of the court
lasted until early Sunday morning
The lawyers for the government en-
deavored to prove the Sinclair COM
pany had full knowledge of the Jap
anese troops of occupation on the is
land of Saghalin when the contract
was signed and had incurred all the
risks involved in siging the document
The attorneys for the Sinclair COM
pany admitted that the compan. knew
of the presence of japanese troops
on the island, but said they did not
realize to what extent the japanese
would resist the entry of the Ameri-
can prospecting expedition.
The Importance of the contract as
a political instrument became appar-
ent at this juncture. 1t developed
that the Soviet government looked to
the Sinclair company to induce the
Anerican government to force the
Japanese to evacuate Saghalin. II
the American state department failed
to take any steps in this direction. it
gave the Soviet government the right
its lawyers commended, to cancel the
contract Within a year.
The government advocates also
contended that not only did the
the company in the exercise of its
rights. but by its declara tons against
Soviet Russia, encouraged the Jap
anese to offer further resistance.
Professor Worms. for the Sinclair
interest, argued that the contract
must be divorced from the question
of the political attitude of the United
States toward Russia. He declared
that nowhere in tho contract did the
Sinclair company pledge the Soviet
government the support of the United
States government.

C0NY Feminine BASKE TIERS TAKE
GAME FROM PORT LAND BY 30-19 SCORE

The Cony high lassies sent the
Portland high seXtet back to Port
land Saturday afternoon, defeated, to
tune of 80 to 10. The Portland girls
started off well but after the
first period they had little chance to
win as the Cony girls played rings
around them much of the time. The
Cony team started slowly with a re-
suit that Portland led in the first
period, the score being to in ia
vor of Portland when the whistle
blew.
With the start of the second peri
cd the Cony girls found themselves
and held their opponents to u single
goal while they were collecting four
from the floor and one from the foul
line. the period ending with IL to 10
score with Cony on the long end.
The third period cinched the game
for Cony. They again held Portland
to a lone basket while they succeed
ed in anneXing six from the floor and
a foul. Moulton accounted for four
of the goals and Kinsman got the
other two baskets and the foul. The
score at this time was Cony %, Port
land IL.
In the final period the visitors
fought hard but We're unable to over
come the Cony lead although Port
land scorede more frequently than
did Cony. Portland gained seven
points to three for Cony.

mother four years ago. It lies near
the wall of the ancient church where
Patrick Henry delivered his Liberty
