STARTS
TESTI MONY in
BLACKBURN CASE

Stafford, Jan. 29.-Tne defense in
the trial of Charles J. Blackburn,
Mesa ranchman, charged with Staying
his business partner, Miguel Bernal,
started the presentation of testimony
today by which it is hoped to prove
the innocence of the defendant.
Practically the entire day was spent
in an examination of maps and
photographs which the defense con-
tends shows that it was impossible
for Blackburn to have pushed an
automobile over the embankment
after killing Bernal as related by
state witnesses.
The defense also attempted to show
that owing to the number of mes
impossible for Apache Indians to see
what they claimed to have witnessed
while on the witness stand.
The state tried to prove that Bernal
was slain by Blackburn after a fight
on the highway between here and
Globe lat November while the de-
fense' insists that an automobile acct
dent caused the death of Bernal.
James M. Brown and William J.
! Jameson of Phoenix were called to
the stand today with diagrams and
maps of the scene of the Globe-Saf-
ford highway where the defense con-
tends that Bernal was killed in an
automobile accident and the state
! insists that Berna1 was slain by
Blackburn.
The testimony was presented to
controvert the statements by Apache
Indians that Blackburn killed Bernal
with a rock and then showed the
touring car over the enbankment to
make it appear as an accident. The
engineers asserted that it was i'm
possible for a 225 pound man in good
health and in the prime of life to
push the touring car one to two feet
to the edge of the bank where the
grade was two and AZ half inches to
a foot. Photographs also We're used
to attempt to show that owing to
the heavy growth of mesquite bushes
last November that it was impossible
for the Indians to see what they
claimed to have seen.
Guy Sisson, automobile mechanic
from Rice, testified today regarding
the position of the car in which the
defense contends that Bernal lost his
life. He testified that he had inves-
tigated the tracks shortly after the
alleged accident as a matter of Curl
osity and had noticed tracks and oth-
er evidence showing that the car had
jammed against the upper bank and
had been backed up the road and
then had gone over the embankment
at practically right angles.

HOUSE PAYS GREAT
TRIBUTE TO OLDEST
MEMBER ON BIRTHDAY
(By Dispatch A. P. Mirel

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-An un-
usual tribute was paid by the house
today to Representative Charles M.
Stedman, North Carolina, in honor of
his 85th birthday.
Upon motion by Representative Til
son, of Connecticut, the republican
leader, the house recessed for ten
minutes for members to congratulate
their colleague who has the distinc-
tion of being the only Civil war
veteran in congress.
This honor was accorded after a
number of members had delivered
speeches congratulating Stedman upon
his years of service and also upon
his bravery in action when as a major
in the army of northern Virginia, he
fought under cenera1 Robert e. Lee.
The demonstration was precipitated
when Major Stedman asked permis-
sion to deliver an address to the
house on February 6. Speaker Long
worth refused to put the motion to
vote, declaring instead the per-
mission was granted by unanimous
consent.

PEOPLE PROGRESS ONLY AT THE
RATE AT WHICH THEY ARE GIVEN
EDUCATION, MEREDITH dec ARES

"If the people of the United States
progress, they progress only at the
rate that they are educated q. II.
Meredith, assistant to superintendent
of Schools j. A. Sexson of Bisbee,
told members of the Douglas Lea
que of Women Voters last night
during his lecture on the new edu-
cation bill.
It was impossible for SeXson to
be present as had been planned so
following the election of officers
for the new year to guide the des-
TIMES of the local league, Meredith,
who has made careful study of
the educational situation through
out this country, was introduced.
Mrs. L. j. Tuttle acted as chairman
in her capacity as president of the
Douglas league, she being reelected
to that office last night.
In the preface of his address, the
Bisbee school official reminded his
hearers that the country today gem
orally thinks and plans as unit
in matters of health, highways and
other vital matters to it's citizens.
Thus the fact that schools in one
section of the United States are of
a much more inferior class than
those in some other vicinity, is a
matter Of national concern. 1t is
democratic, the speaker asserted, to
allow each state to guide it's own
educational policy but not wise to
permit some to absolutely neglect
the problem. In the realm of educa-
tion then, he stated, it is vitality inn
portant to all citizens that all chill
dren have good school facilities.
Meredith next went on to point
out that schools privileges every
where in the United States are far
from equal, citing that in the pro-
gressive state of Colorado alone, IA
per cent of the school buildings
are built of logs, 6S per cent of
frame and only IS per cent of stone
and brick. He then pointed out the
finer facilities offered children in
Denver in the matter of education
than those offered children in the
rural sections of Colorado. A large
portion of the pupils in Colorado
schools, he asserted, are being
taught, as in many other states, by
teachers even were graduated from
I11Sn SCuOOl.
Turning to Arkansas as an ex-
ample of a state wherein education
has been sadly neglected, the Bis
bee official stated that while the
Arkansas state government is only
spending approximately $500 per
capita for schooling, the federal
government is spending $500 per
head.
The first educational bill intro
duced, Meredith asserted, was drafted
by Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia
and Representative H. M. Towner of
New York and was known as the
Smith Towner bill, being introduced
in the senate in 1918. 1t called for
the creation of a department of
education in the federal government
with a secretary of education in the
presidents cabinet. Tt also sought
bureau of education to be established
in the federal government and called
for it to carry on extensive research
work in health and educational
problems. OF the more contested
provisions of the bill were those
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-01-30

urging the expenditure of one hum
dred million dollars for better edu-
cational facilities in the country,
some of this sum to go to wipe
out illiteracy and some for Ameri-
canization work. Then $5O,o00,0O0
was to be devoted to equalizing
American education and another fif-
teen million for the training of
teachers.
This bill failed Of adoption and
among the objections raised were
that it would bring the national
government too much into education,
that it asked for TOO much money
for education, that it was contrary
to the views of the farmers of the
constitution and that it would place
education in politics.
The present bill Meredith stated,
demands no set appropriation but
asks for a cabinet department of
education, consolidation of the va
rious national educational agencies
into one department; provides for
support of a research department of
educational and also the creation
Of a interdepartmental council on
education which would be made up
of 25 educational workers and 25
nom educational workers.
Many prominent organizations are
backing this bill, the speaker de-
clared, among them the National
League of Women Voters. If adopted,
the ! federal department created,
would try to keep the educational
facilities of the various states up
fn toi h1It
not dictate to the state, according
to Meredith.
1t would however, reward those
states which did exceptionally we'll
in educational progress and would
call for appropriations as needed,
just as other cabinet departments
do now: 1t would mean, if adopted,
better training for teachers and
better school buildings.
Certainly, the speaker remarked,
the government of this country can
well afford to spend more money
on education, for we progress only
at the rate our people are educated"
In closing, Meredith asked the wo-
men to study the bill and inform
themselves about it but did not urge
them to either support or oppose it.
The two outstanding faults with
the present school system, he MAIN
tained are poor teachers and too
many rural schools, which are near
ly-always lacking in funds and good
instructors.
He stated that ne did not believe
that politics would rule the proposed
federal department education as
much as generally asserted.
A general discussion followed
Meredith's talk and several women
asked questions concerning the bill.
Preceding the address, a Bring
Your Own Kit" supper was held at
o'clock. This was followed by the
annual election of officers, and the
entire slate as arranged by the
nominating committee was elected to
serve during the coming year. Mrs.
L. j. Tuttle was .reN elected president;
and her assistant officers are Mrs.
n. 0. Rucker, first vice president;
Mrs. Carl Cole, second vice presi-
dent; Mrs. Carl H. Lund, secretary
and Mrs. N. V. Alessi, treasurer.

College Boys Establish
Equal Rights Principle;
Shave During Their Class
fBy pispatcn a. P. wlrel


BERKELEY, Calf, Jan. 29.-The
principle of equal rights for men
has been established at the Uni
versity of California Proof of this
was furnished today in the class
room of Professor Ira p. Cross,
whose forte is money and banking.
For some time Professor Cross has
felt and expressed annoyance at the
time taken away from their studies
by feminine students powdering
their noses and otherwise freshen-
ing UP their countenances. About a
week ago he interrupted a lecturer
to say that as a believer in equal
rights for the two sexes he could
see no more reason why the girls
should make their toliettes in the
class room than boys.
Today two of the masculine gen
der appeared with shaving equip
ment and when Professor Cross
started his lecture, they lathered
their faces and shaved completely.
Professor Cross led the applause
saying that if the two youths would
make their names known to him
he was unable to recognize them
under the lather-he would see that
they were given a grade of A for
the term. Eeither, however, gave
the desired information, but this
was made known by fellow students
who ascertained the two boys were
Arnold NIurchi, of Nevada City, Cali
fornia and John Kimble, Spring
field Illinois.

NEW PosroFFIcE BUILDING FOR KEY: WEST

=
The time is most opportune for the leading
citizens and local civic and commercial organiza-
tioas to get busy on the matter Of postoffice
building for Key West Every one should inn
mediately get into communication with Senator
Fletcher and Congressman Sears at Washington,
urging quick and energetic attention to this high
~ important matter.
The public buildings bill now pending in con-
gress carries with it total of $165 600. OF
this vast sum, $15,00O,000 goes to complete pro-
jects already authorized $4,000, Oo0fto be spent
for public buildings within the Disictsef Columbia
and 800 600 900 for public buildings in other por-
tons of the United States. This bill provides that
the Postmaster General shall designate the places
where post office buildings to be erected. So
the workers for the Key West building would have
only official to deal with.
The government several years ago acquired
ownership of building site in Key West that is
perfectly ideal for post office building This
property is the east side of sinonton street
and extends to the corner of Caroline.
With the site already paid for aud available,
and an appropriation of a hundred million dollars
being made for the erection of such buildings, it
is high time something is being done to secure a
sufficient portion of this vast amount of money
build postoffice for KeyssWestss.4 i
The large and rapidly increasing volume of
business transacted at the local postoffice re-
quires larger and more commodious building the
proceeds justify it, and the people are entitled
to it.
This is a matter of tremendous Importance to
Key West and Monroe county. There is absolute
" no time to- lose if anything is to be done about
it at this session of congress-
What are the civic organizations of Key West
going to do about it?

BETTER HOMES WEEK

The week of April rs to May 1 is appointed
as Better Homes Week, and in over 5000 COM
munties notice viii be taken of the soccason.
pleasing dwelling place is great moral
and economic factor. 1t helps keep people con-
tented in wholesome environment, it quets the
restless spirit Of many and it tends to create sub
stantial character
The greatest need along this line is for COM
Portable homes for wage-earners and all of small
means, that can be bought or rented for mod
crate price. In many places rents seem dispro-
portionate to the means of the average mechanics
family
Business men in any town should reflect that
II they show enterprise in providing enough homes
for the people of the town, they help promote in-
dustrial peace, they make people contented and
industrious, and they add to the prosperity of the
whole community, in which they win share. 1t is
well worth their while then, to build moderate
priced houses as an investment, or to form cor
porations for the purpose of providing an ade-
quate supply of such homes.
People demand better accommodations than
formerly. Run down dwellings with few improve
ments and in a general state of disrepair, might
be tolerated and accepted some years ago, but with
the higher standards existing now people viii
not take them # they can possibly get anything
better If landlords allow houses to deteriorate.
they are likely TO see them stand idle good deal
of the time.
The growth Of many places is being checked
by the lack Of an adequate number of comfortable
homes for people who desire to work such places.
Many very attractive homes have beeh built In re-
cent years in Key West but one can reasonably
expect that there will soon Be a need Tor many
more.
