HALIFAX IS CROWDED
Enthusiasm is High as Time For Big Boat Race Draws Nearcr-Blue- nose Is Fayorite.

Halifax, Oct. IS R-Halifax was crowded today with schooner race enthusiasts in anticipation of the opening race tomorrow to determine whether the Bluenose, Captain An- gus Walters, undefeated champion of the fishing fleets of the North Atlantic, can retain her laurels against the Haligonian, Captain Moyle Course, W. J. Roue designed both vessels. '
 On paper, the experts figure the Haligonian should win; while seven inches longer on the waterlne, two l feet and three inches longer over all and with eight inches more beam, she carries a less displacement by ten tons.
 The sail areas of the two schooners are approximately the same at ten thousand square feet, but the spars of the Haligonian are higher by | four feet.

ADOPTION OF BILL TO

Dispatch From Berlin Says Hohen- zollcrn Settlement Is Ex-
 pecfpd

Berlin, Oct. 15 P-Adoption of the entire Hohenzollern settlement bill, which has met much opposition from the communists, was forecast in the Prussian diet today by the vote on it's separate paragraphs which was begun at the conclusion of a prolonged debate.
 The first three paragraphs, which are among the most important in the settlement, were adopted by the diet after it had been necessary to hold several votes because of proposed communist amendments.
 The sentiment of the diet on the measure was indicated by the vote on the second paragraph, which was adopted 241 to 46 with GA ab- stentons, principally among the so- cial-democrats. This paragraph per tained to the allotment of estates to the Hohenzollern family.

 Several times during the journey over Ohio, the ship was piloted slightly off its course to avoid incle- ment winds. As 1t entered Michigan and left behind the dreaded district the Los Angeles put on speed until the Dearborn airport, it's objective, was reached.
 Eight Survivors on Board.
 Besides Commander Rosendahl, seven members of the crew of the Los Angeles are survivors of the Shenandoah disaster. They are L. I1F FAlslly. Arthur E. Carson, Frank L. Peckham. William A. Russell. Henry. l.. Boswell, Charles S. Solar and Julius E. Maiak, enlisted men.
 The Los Angeles carried a crew of fl men together with Admiral Moi felt and three others rated as pas sengers.
 Only Minor Trouble
 "The only trouble we had" Com mander Rosendahl said, was the fact that the radio generator broke down two hours after we left Lake hurst. We were only able to send messages with our emergency ap- paratus. We confined our transmits +o DF location ot various times. to the United States navy department.
 Our weather maps showed we would run into storm over Ohio, and because we were watching for this storm our speed was cut down. At that we made the trip to De- troit in 16 hours and 30 minutes and our schedule called for a 15- hour run. Near Youngstown we struck a line disturbance and had to dodge around, looking for a quiet space to get through.
 The average speed was 54 miles an hour.
 Rose to 1000 Feet
 Between Philadelphia and New York there were some low hanging clouds. After that the weather was clear. We reached 4,000 feet, our maximum height, between Lancas- ter and Chambersburg in Pennsyl- vania, and we held that altitude to Connellsville, Pa. Over Lake Erie the air was bumpy. The lowest temperature we struck was 39 de- grees. But 1t was cold at that, and this morning the ship was covered with frost.
 we went over the mooring mast first at 1.500 feet to observe condi- tions. The landing was made very easily in about 15 minutes, and 30 minutes for a landing is considered good time.
 If the weather Is favorable we will remain in Detroit until about 1o:30 a. m., Saturday"

and members Of the joint congress
sional committee which is consider
Ing proposed Dill amendment that

for the use of musical compositions.
The committee hearings. which
nave been in progress since Monday,
have developed into a forum for
emphatic assertions and bitter
denials. Private opinions. of commit

hearings are far from agreement
aud even the National Association
of Broadcasters. which is sponsoring
the bill and arranging for the pres

Contempt Sentence Cost
 County Judge His Seat

Eureka, Cal, Oct. P-Bret Harte's practice when he was a country editor here in the sixties of freely criticizing the conduct of judges and court decisions, seems to be a treasured heritage of the Cali fornia redwood country.
 For Denver Sevier, superior court judge of Humboldt county, the only California magistrate to sentence an editor for contempt in the last four years, ran fifth and was nosed out at the primary election after long term of service.
 The issue resulted from the 1000 day jail sentence given Alfred Lindsley, editor Of the Humboldt News- for commenting on the con- duct of Judge Sevier while he was sitting in a case in which Lindsey was defendant on a, charge of criminal libel. The jury disagreed, but Lindsey has been in jail for the last five monthe. Higher courts upheld the contempt sentence and Governor Friend W. Richardson re- fused a pardon.
 At the same election in which Judge Sevier was defeated. the voters named Lindsley's lawyer as district attorney. supplanting the district attorney who brought the criminal libel charges against the editor.
