Lunch for Wanderers

But the real story connected with
the Comstock Lode centered in San
Francisco. TWO miners later to be-
come famous-John Mackay and
James G.. Fair-wandered into town
and pooled their resources with two
waterfront saloon proprietors, James
c. Flood and William S. O'Brien.
Each of the four was destined to
become fabulously wealthy.
with their pool of $250,00O the
quartet started out to buck the
Bank Of California crowd" which
controlled the Comstock Lode. Will
liam Sharon, later United States
Senator, was a moving spirit in this
stock exchange clique and in the
bitter fight that followed he threat
ened to drive Mackay out Of San
Francisco in rage and called O'Brien
and Flood big waterfront whisky

Power Users Indignant
In several cases in Indiana in late
years, cities owning utilities have
made the complaint that regulatory
bodies have hampered them in order
to put municipal ownership in bad
light and private ownership in more
favorable position.
Meanwhile, large power users and
representatives Of householders in
Indianapolis continued indignant
over the Governors sudden shift in
the commission.
A. Leroy Portteus, president of
the Federation of Community Civic
Clubs, said Tuesday:
while l hesitate to ascribe an Ill
terror motive. yet it looks suspicious
to me. 1t is a shame that the Gov
ernor should permit himself to be so
used as to obviously be a party to

Washington-Under an opinion rem

radio in the United States continues
virtually unregulated. In substance,
it held that the commerce depart

subject after congress failed to pass
specific regulatory legislation, was
without authority under existing laws
to control broadcasting by the issu-
ance of definite wave lengths.
