the telegraph index figure had risen

the telegraph index figure had risen
to 1884.
Since 1914, the year most generally
used as a basis OF economic compari-
son, the figure for national telegraph
ic business increased from 1852 to 3S4.
Anything which helps one form of
rapid communication or encourages II
helps and encourages all the others"
When the wide public interest in
radio was pointed out to Western
Union officials and they were asked
whether their business had increased,
and what effect radio had exercised,
they said
"A review of the company's revenue
since 1919 discloses that with the eX-
ception of 1921 each year has shown
an increase in commercial telegraph
tolls. The present volume isA nearly
three times what it was in 1915. The
war stimulated use of the telegraph
for communications and transfer or
funds, but the increase has been due
in no small part to intensive mer-
chandising of the service.
Radio Developes Business.
"On the cables, the same develop
ment program has been followed, but
not with the same result, since the
radio has absorbed some of the
growth. 1t is a well known fact how
ever, that the radio has developed as
we'll as taken business.
Before the new high speed per-
malloy cable to the Azores was laid,
all Italian traffic went over the North
Atlantic cables via London. The di.
version of that traffic only temporarily
decreased the traffic on the North At
lantic cables, which is now greater
than ever before. In the meantime
the new Italian cable traffic has ex'
ceeded all expectations and is steadily
growing"
Despite the Improvement in radio
telegraph, radio telephone, radio trans
mission of pictures and radio tele-
vision, American telephone and tele-
graph companies are going ahead full
speed with their program of wire serv-
ice expansion, which are outlined rs
to 80 years ahead, confident that new
devices will only make more custom
ers for all services concerned.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 21.-De-
relopments of science and improve
ments in machinery and equipment
for communication, which have been
extraordinarily numerous in the last
two years, have not resulted in the
overcrowding of the field in which
they function That is the con
clusion drawn today by the most i'm
portant telegraph, telephone and
cable companies, which have just
completed a survey of their business
for the past year and its outlook for
the future.
Radio service, radio telephone de-
yelopments and extension of the ali.
mail have been features of the de-
velopment of communication in the
last year, but instead of cutting
down the business of the telegraph
and cable companies, which use wire
communication, they have developed
a huge number of new customers and
have increased the use of all means
of speedy communication by the
public .

CLERK BELIEVED
MURDER VICTIM

Peculiar circumstances shroud the
death of M Sanchez Adame, municipal
clerk of the town of Fronteras So
nora, Mexico, and clerk to Judge Juan
Frijalva, Of Fronteras. Adame's body,
with moose about the neck, was dis
covered in his home early Saturday
morning.
1t was first believed that Adame
had committee suicide by hanging him
self, but later discoveries have led the
authorities to believe that he was
hanged by several men who left the
body hanging in an effort to make it
appear that he had committed suicide.
According to information received in
Aqua Prieta Monday, one man, Arturo
Pradeau, is being he'd by the Fronteras
police for investigation in connection
with the case and several others are
being sought by the authorities.
Adame was a quiet man of Sd years
of age, who lived alone in his homo
at Fronteras. So far as is known, he
had no enemies, and the authorities
are convinced that his death was not
Que to the religious situation in Mex
leo. The motive of robbery is dis
counted by the knowledge that Adame
was quite prominent in municipal af-
fairs He was known to be compare
lively a poor man.
The only theory advanced by the au-
thorities at Fronteras is that Adame
incurred the enmity of someone while
serving in his official capacity as mu :
nicipal secretary or clerk to the judge.
It is believed that at least two men
took part in the murder.
Reports received in Aqua Prieta
state that Pradeau was arrested be-
cause of the fact that MS footprints
were found leading to his home from
the house in which Adame's body was
found. /. Pradeau was closely question:
ed by Jose Castillo, chief of police o.

of the crime. Adame had

NEAR $500 SEE
HOME BEAUTIFUL
DURING SUNDAY

The interest of Douglas residents in
the "home beautiful" built by the
Fred D. Hubbell syndicate, at 1414
Ninth street. was evidenced by the at
tendance of more than $500 persons at
the opening of the model home sun
day.
All day Sunday a continual stream
of Visitorsi awaited entrance to the
new home and the same condition
prevailed throughout the day Monday.
Conservative estimates of the at
tendance during the first two days OF
the model homes exhibition are given
as close to 1000.
Visitors who attended the opening
of the Douglas home beautiful ex-
pressed themselves as feeling that the
model home had more chan fulfilled
their expectations. Considering the
number of persons who visited the
dwelling, it is interesting to note that
but on criticism was reported to
Hubbell. One man remarked upon the
absence of a disappearing ironing
board
Not only did the architectural de-
sign of the floor plan of the home
meet with the ready approval of the
visitors, but the interior finish ard
the furnishings brought hundreds of
personal concentrations.

Immediately strike the attention and
admiration of visitors was the effect

black and gold, in the same materials.
The rounded tops Of the large case
ment windows are fitted with fan
shaped silk net curtains and the same
material is used in the curtains of the
lower windows. These fan-shaped
fittings were the subject of many COM
ments and add materially to charm of
the interior.
Many visitors were SO impressed by
the color scheme, the materials anu
the design Of the draperies that they
made special inquiry to learn the;
name of the firm which had supplied
them. 1t was found that the materials
had been selected by MIS-. Fred Hub

DEFEAT
FATS IL TO 9
HERE SUNDAY

In hard fought battle, at which
the fans declared they got more than
their moneys worth of enjoyment, the
Fats lost to the Leans, IL to 8, in the
game played Sunday at the Douglas
ball park for the benefit CT the Doug
las ball club.
The Fats had many bad breaks ana
suffered from several raw decisions
made bv Pete lWimberley, Lean UNI.
nire. and have protested the game.
The Eats were further handicapped
bv the absence from the game of asevs
eral of their star players. Due to a
misunderstanding arising from thu
change Of management Of the Fats,
necessitated by the absence in Ell Pas"
of Tom Glenn, many OF the Fats
thought the game had been postponed
and failed to show.
To take care of the situation, several
lean players were loaned to the Fats.
but the Fats apparently are not at all
grateful for the services rendered by
these kindly substitutes. They claim
that they were double-crossed AC~
cordingly the game will be played
over Sunday, August %, at the local
diamond. Elaborate plans are already
being carried out to secure a recora
attendance, and Doc HuXtable, newly
appointed manager of the Fats, offers
the assurance that the regular, all
star Fat lineup will be on hand.
Doc Huxtable was easily the out
standing star of the game, He play
ed throughout the entire nine innings
contrary to the prophesies of the Leans
and time after time brought rounds OF
applause from the stands with his bril-
liant playing at third base. His peg to
first was the wonder of the day and
he contributed his share at the plate.
Docs single, over the right field fence
came at an opportune time and scored
a run for the Fats.
