Hearing on Wheeler
Plea is Set Nov. 27

Bailey of the District of Colum-

November q for hearing of ar
guments on the plea of Senator
Wheeler of Montana for dismiss
al of the indictments charging
him with conspiracy to defraud
the government in connection
with oil prospecting permits.
A demurrer filed with plea of
former acquittal last week by
Senator Wheeler, alleging lack of
jurisdiction, also will be argued
on that date. Senator Wheeler
seeks dismissal of charges again
st him of two principal grounds.
That he already has been ac-
quilted in Montana on a charge
based on precisely the same alle-
cation of facts, and that District
of Columbia courts have no jur-
isdiction over the offensive char
ged or sought to be charged.

BOOST, BUT
DON'T KNOCK

To promote the interest of your
own community at the expense
of another avails little. You may
live in the best place on earth,
but if you try to build it up by
tearing down some other commu-
nifty. the very instrument you
use will prove to be a boone
rang.
There is no place on the face
Of the earth that has no faults,
and the best places are those that
live. not at the expense of some
one else, but out Of the fullness
Of their own generosity toward
all the rest of the earth.
1t is perfectly proper to tell
the world about the advantages
of your city, but when you do it
don't point out the disadvantages
some neighbor may have. This
neighbor may know of disadvant-
ages that your city may have and
may be inclined to retaliate.
The most profitable way is to
boost your own city; herald its
advantages to the world, and in
turn give the rest of the world
credit for what it has coming.
In this way you will earn the CO.
operation Of your neighbors and
will have the other fellow boost
ing for you the best kind of ad
verti sing you can get-Ex.

Shelby is president. The compa-

adjacent to Kevin, the Beckett

the third we have not been able

Kevin is growing and perhaps
both concerns will have plenty
of business to keep the expected
