ROAD PROSPECTS
 LOOKING FINE

Continued work by the Alas l1a Road Commission on the road adjacent to the Nizina bridge and general repairing of the whole Sourdough Hiil road is now assu red in the very near future and this, along with the completion of the bridge, has prompted priv ate enterprise to activity. Both placer camps, Dan and ChiLitu, have signified their intention to commence work on their end to- ward cutting a passable road to connect with the bridge.
 This in itself is very encour aging, for it will place these cam pS in immediate touch with the town at all times aud lessen freig hting costs and difficulties. And on top of this comes word from Joe Murray that he has succeeded in obtaining an appropriation of $6,OOO to be expended on the Chis ana trail which has been badly needed for so long. This sum will be sufficient to repair one Or two of the worst spots and pave the wAy for a future general improv ementover it's entire length and in time the widening of it into a wagon road, The present m ney available will insure it beng in

much better shape for next win ter which will mean more traffic via the Mccarthy route.
 IT, view of the policy of the government to cut down on pub lie expenditure and to hedge in every direction, this appropriat ion looks very promising. 1t sho ws that our legislators are we'll aware of Alaska's crying need for ROADS-and more roads-and better roads.
 Also at this session some S26,OOO has been set aside for the building and maintaining of relief cabins, and it is now up to us to see that we get our fair share of thls. There is need for several more cabns in this district and repairs to those we already have. Now is the time to get it, aud not after it has all been Gisbursed.
 Summing it all up-we have an excellent bridge over the Niz ina, the road this side is being repaired with good prospects of a continuance on the other side, the ShushanRa trail will be impr owed, and there is money forth coming for relief cabins. Not bad for start. And we must not be

DEFENSE WINS
LEGAL SKIRMISH
Dismiss Juror Who Would
Not Exercise Extreme
Caution
BY United Press

CHICAGO, May 27.-Attorneys de-
tending William D. Shepherd, for
mer Indianapolis man, against
charges that he murdered Billy Nc
Ciintock with typhoid germs to get

important victory today in the selec'
ton Of the jury.
Judge Thomas J. Lynch ruled that
William Scott Stewart, Shepherd s
chief counsel, need not accept for
jury service a man who would be-
ueve the testimony of "Dr." Charles
c. Faimen without extreme
caution" The man was dismissed
over the objection Of States At

Faimen, who was president of an
alleged fake medical school, Econ
fessed" he was an accomplice in the
alleged murder, that he gave Shep-
herd the germs and instructed him
how they should be used to cause
Billy's death.
The Illinois law declares that a
Juror may convict a man on the un-
corroborated testimony Of an ac-
complete, but warns that the jury
should view the accomplice's
testimony with extreme caution
before accepting 1t.
Stewart, while questioning a
prospective juror, found that the

MOTHER GETS LIFE
FOR POISONING SON
Mrs. Anna Cunningham
Found Guilty in Gary,
Ind, Case.
By the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
CROWN POINT, Ind, July 25.-
Mrs. Anna Cunningham of Gary, Ind,
today was found guilty of numbering
her 10-year-old son Walter, and was
sentenced to life Imprisonment.
The case was given to the jury
shortly after noon yesterday. Mrs.
Cunningham is under indictment in
connection with the death of two other
children. She was accused of poison
ing the trio.
Mrs. Cunningham attorneys filed
notice that an appeal would be taken
from her conviction.
Suspicion first rested on Mrs. Gun
nfngham in connection with the mys-
terious deaths of five members of her
family in six years when David Cum
ningham, jr., "a, became i'll suddely
in Gary and was removed TO a Chi
cago hospital for treatment last April.

Oscar Wolff, coroner of Cook Coun-
ty (Chicago), investigated on informa-
tion given by George Arnold, 25, a
cousin of David Cunningham, who
said the CunntnghamS had lived prin-
cipally on insurance paid on lives of
the five deceased members
The investigation continued az David,
jr., remained critically i'll from what
physicians said was internal poison
ing. Mrs. Cunningham was arrested
in Gary April II. The charge fol-
lowed an examination of the vital
organs of the bodies of Walter. 10,
and Harry, 2S, her sons. Physicians
found traces of poison in Walters
organs, but none in those of Harry.
Deaths in the family began on July

Con gress Lacks Power to Ban
Evolution, aroused Editors Say
Proposed La,U You'd Be IntoIerabLe.
Illegal Inuasion of Rights, Surrey
by The Star Indicates.

There apparently is no disposition
throughout the country to take seri-
ously the suit brought in the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia to
restrain payment of salaries of local
school officials on the ground that
they have taught or permitted the
teaching of theories which involv-
cd "disrespect for the Holy Bible Z"
The general opinion seems to be that
the suit is ill-founded and that it will
be dismissed when it comes to a
hearing.
But the proposal that an attempt
shall be made next Winter to have
Congress write into the Federal stat.
uteS the substance of the Tennessee
anti-evolution law, applying IT not only
TO the public schools of the District
OF Columbia but to land-grant and
other Federalaid colleges as well and
possibly to the Natiopal Museum and
other agencies of scientific research
supported in whole or in part by Fed
eral appropriations, is regarded as a
very different matter. Announce
ment that such legislation will be at
tempted already has provoked wide
discussion and speculation as to where
such movement might lead.
Following are the views of some
OF the leading newspapers and news
paper editors of the country, tele-
graphed to The Star in response to an
inquiry as to how seriously they be-
lieved the proposal should be taken:

MINE OPERATORS
LOOK TO COOLIDGE
Observers Believe Owners
Would Want President to
Choose Mediator.
By the Associated Press.

ATLANTIC CITY, July 25.-If in
tervention in the coal negotiations
should become necessary the opinion
of we'll posted observers here is that
Gov. Pinchot of Pennsylvania would
be the anthracite miners preference
as the mediator. whereas the Coolidge
administration would be the choice of
the mine owners. While neither min
ers nor operators have expressed
themselves officially in any way, one
of these observers said today the lat
ter would not be eager to accept again
the friendly offices of Gov. Pinchot,
whose efforts in 1929 resulted in a 10
per cent wage increase.
Hint as to where the operators
real affections lie," this man said
was conveyed last week in the terms
of the arbitration plan proposed by
the operators and rejected for the
time being by the men. The opera
tors proposed that both sides agree
to arbitrate any otherwise insuparable
differences arising in the present ne
gotiations and that the arbitration
be left to three impartial persons.
chosen either by the two sides them
selves, or. failing that, by President
Coolidge"
Strong for Pinchot.
The miners do not conceal their re-
gard for Gov. Pinchot. The latest
official utterance by Philip Murray,
their international vice president, re-
ferred to him as "our distinguished
governor" The miners already have
definitely stated they regard anthra-
cite coal problems as a Pennsylvania
matter"
However. it is the opinion here that
there is no reason to suppose the
miners preference would carry them
to the point of rejecting any one else
in favor Of the Pennsylvania gov
ernor. If they could not deal with
Pinchot, there is no reason so far
apparent that they would refuse to
deal with any one else. it was said.
Attempts to feel out miners senti-
ment toward Federal agencies reveal
the miners are puzzled. For lack OF
official governmental utterances they
so far do not appear to have drawn
any conclusion from the contradic-
tory reports dispatched from the yari-
Gus official Summer centers.

"LINE-STAFF" FIGHT
BREAKS OUT ANEW
Appointment of Successor to Ad.
miral Robson Stirs Up Old
Navy Argument.
By the Associated Press

Ds the AssOCldteO fress.
The impending appointment of a
new chief of the Navy Bureau of
Engineering has developed another
situation in which officers of the line
and staff find themselves in disagree
ment.
1t was indicated today that the
question, still to be decided. whether
the line and staff should have similar
designations in their ranks, has be-
come further complicated by Admiral
Eberle, chief of naval operations.
recommending to Secretary Wilbur
the appointment of a line officer to
succeed Rear Admiral j. K. Robson
when the latter's term as chief of
Bureau of Engineering expires Sep.
tember-30.
Admiral Robson is a line officer
and engineering officers have filed
representations with the Secretary
urging that the head of the bureau
be selected from one Of the technically
trained engineers. Admiral Robson
has applied for retirement before his
four-year term expires in September
but his request is yet to be acted upon
by the President.
Rear Admiral c. w. Dyson. inspec.
tor general of engineering, who will
retire on account of age this Fall, is
leading the officers urging the selec
ton Of an engineer for the post and
contends the appointment for four
year term of another line officer to
head the bureau would establish a
precedent difficult to set aside. He
has solicited the support of the en-
gineering profession of the country ir
his efforts, which, he says, are aimed
to obtain recognition for the service
specialists.
Secretary Wilbur has stated that he
would take no action in the matter
until after his return to Washington
next month from his vacation. He
may hold a hearing on the question
