MARTINEAU'S ADDRESS
AT STATE CONVENTION
CONTINUED from first page)

"There seems to re an impression in
the minds Of som that 1 will make
an unwarranted and free use Of the
pardoning power II such an impress
sion does exist, l wish here to remove
It once and for all / viii not know
ingly abuse this high prerogatiye. Its
exercise will be in keeping with what
conceive to be the purpose Of the
trainers Of the constitution.
"a pardon will not be granted on
account of the prominence of the APP
pllcant, nor because the application
is presented by men Of social and poll
tical influence. Political expediency
will not be a ground for pardons so
long as | am in the governors Office
Says Business Unethical
"No lawyer should attempt to build
up pardon business. Such bust
ness is unethical and unprofessional
ANY effort on the part of a lawyer
to obtain a pardon on account Of his
personal or political friendship for me
will be looked upon with positive lis
favor. No attorney should present an
application for a pardon except for his
regular client. Any other course in
yites just criticism, even in case
where a pardon ought to be granted.
Not only should an attorney who en-
cages in the business of making APP
plicatiOns for pardons be condemned,
but the employment of an attorney
other than the one who tried the ,ase
in the courts should be looked upon as
the strongest evidence that there is no
merit in the application.
"This is said without intending to
reflect upon anyone, but to condemn
and stop a practice that has been done
so much to discredit and prevent the
proper exercise of the pardoning pow
or. The fees ordinarily collected in
these cases are so out of proportion
to the services rendered that Odium
is cast upon all who are connected
with them. A strict adherence by the
lawyers Of the state to these sugges-
tions will save them much embarrass-
ment and enable me to better dis
charge the highest prerogative that is
bestowed upon mortal man.

Improved Roads Essential

There is still another need that is
absolutely essential not only to the
further progress of our schools, but it
affects every section of our state aud
the happiness Of every man, woman
and child in 1t. | refer to the need
for improved roads. In my opinion the
road question is easily the one of
greatest concern to our people. On
its proper solution the future Of Ar
kansas depends.
Transportation has always played
an important part in the development
of our country, but today those sec
tions of our state which are without
improved public roads have not only
ceased to grow, but are rapidly being
abandoned. Much of our lands which
were once valuable are now practically
worthless because they are without
roads.
"The automobile has completely
changed the old order of things. and
the sooner we recognize this the bet
ter 1t will be. No part of our state
can develop without improved roads.
and all parts will develop with them.

pride and viewing with alarm in
the same old way politicians have

world began, held up real enter
tainment last night by not being

stations to memory--Iast night will
be epoch making in radio
Roxy's Gang closed its career.
With the passing into memory
OF the Gang the record completes
the first big thing done In radio
for the listener-in aside from the
development of the receiver itself
What to other people had been
merely a means Of communication
Roxy discovered as an entirely new
medium Of entertainment. For it
was Roxy who found the intimacy
of radio. And his invention Of
the Gang was the result--the Gang
which has been giving weekly.
parties in parlor, bedrooms and
even in the bath!
Upon the foundation of this very
vague suggestion of technique it
Is probable the future development
of radio as entertainments rests.
And that will be true, no matter
in what esteem Roxy personally
may be heli by the listener-in.
The Gang has served its day as
a good and thoroughly pleasing
servant to millions--what and who
will take its place?

Radio to Train Entertainers

Radio will bring to aspiring en-
tertainers Of the public more def
mite understanding of this fact than
anything that has been developed
for public attention since ready.to
hear amusement was first devised.
There are two forms in which
genius can express itself with
chance of success.
The first is the elemental human
form and the second Is the periodic
form. The first lives forever il IT
has the true human quality and the
second survives only that period
that understands it. Either may be
great art. In the one the author
or composer reflects his time and
its peculiarly local conditions: This
is the periodic form. The other re-
fleets fundamental human qualities
and may be set in any time or
any language or any nationality and

Unwinding the body in the forward
swing at the golf ball is knack that
the good player understands and that
the poor player has yet to learn.
When the poor golfer grasps the
knack of unwinding slowly, however,
he will be in the neighborhood of a golf
principle that will improve his play
remarkably. This is not because UNI
winding slowly is any golf panacea in
itself, but because certain other prin-
ciples of the swing will develop with
it, all good.
The golfer is told to accelerate the
clubs speed gradually from the top
in the forward swing. Mr.. Average
player might about as well be told to
hop over the moon. since telling him to
accelerate gradually is informing him
that he should do one of the keenest
things in golf-just like that.
However, there is solace, since it is
easily possibly for even the poorest
player to get into the knack of I'M
winding slowly. The first essential is
slow and rhythmic back swing. This
is not painfully slow, but is rightly ac'
complished by giving the clubhead a
sort of throw backward, with the club
heads weight rather dragging against
the hands until the club turns over at
the top. There it is caught up in the
wrists and held firmly. Right here

OFFICERS PROBE
COLLAPSE Of
ST AN D

PASADENA, Cal, Jan. 2.-P)-
Two separate Investigations were
under way here today as the city
cleared away the wreckage of Il
grandstand whose collapse yesterday
during the annual Tournament of
Roses parade resulted in the death
of two persons and the injury Of ap-
proximately 200 others.
The dead are:
Mrs. Bessie Bartish, 65, of Long
Beach, and Mrs. Caroline Sherman,
80, of Los Angeles.
The condition of four or five Of
the critically injured indicated they
might die today.
HOSPITAL CROWDED.
Both the Pasadena police depart
ment and District Attorney Asa Reyes
in Los Angeles have announced that
complete probe will be conducted
10 fix the responsibility for the
tragedy.
Paul Mahoney, alleged owner of
the stand, disappeared SnOrtly Oe
fore the crash, and according to po-
lice has not returned home since.
The collapse of the grandstand, a
privately owned structure constructed
especially for the pageant, occurred
while the parade was in progress.
Without warning the structure gave
way. carrying down into its wreck
age between 500 and 1000 men, wo-
men and children.
KILLED IN FALL.
A check of the Pasadena hospital
last night showed that 235 persons
had been treated and of the number
l3j were still there. Ole of the
victims, Mrs. Bessie Barist, died dur
ing the night as a result of her in
iuries. Some 20 of the injured are
in a critical condition and hospital
attendants say that of this number
four or five are not expected to
| live.
In another accident during the day,
| Mrs. C. w. Bowen of Pasadena, was
killed when she fell two stories from
the top of a building while viewing
| the parade.
