was that he did not remember or
that he was testifying mercy to
the extent of his limited knowledge
and memory.
He declared that he drove the
automobile in which the late Major
Raymond w. Pullman rode to and
from the Mission House on the
night the bodies were found.
He held to the story he told on
the stand yesterday, tending to Inn
peach the testimony OF DR.. Kang
Ii, the Government star witness,
who is said to have discovered the
murder
Following the cross-exalnination,
an effort was made by Wilton j.
Lambert, chief attorney for the de-
tense. to confront Creecy with DIR.
III, but Justice Stafford decided this
Identification would Oe unnecessary.
On redirect examination, Creepy
stated he did not testify at the
first trial OF Wanf six years ago,
although he had been at the Mis-
sion House during the Investigation
and later had been in constant
touch with Major Pullman and the
late Inspector Clifford L. Grant,
former chief of detectives He said
he did not know why he had not
been previously called to testify.
Testimony Blocked
DR.. J. Russell Verbrycke. wen
known washington stomach special
ist. testified that he examined Wan
at the District jail in February,
1919. An attempt by the defense.
to discover from the physician what
VANS condition had been two
weeks previous to the examination,
was temporarily blocked by OBJ
jections from Government counsel,
but Justice Stafford finally per-
mitted an inquiry as to Vans
probable condition prior to the
actual examination.
Doctor Verbycke stated that the
accused man was emaciated, ex-
hausted, and suffering from an In
festival disorder known as spastic
colitis, and that there was great
probability that the condition had
existed for some time previous.
Daniel Scanlon and George How
ard, who were employed at the Jail
when Wan first was brought there,
stated that he had the appearance
of q very sick man, and was IN an
extremely weakened condition.
Detective Recalled
Charles Bradley. former detective,
sergeant, who previously testified
for the prosecution, was called IS
the defense to determine why he
went to the mission house at I
o'clock on the night the murders
were committed. He said the mis-.
sion house had been entered and
robbed OF stamps and other minor
belongings during the previous SUM
mer and he had been called in tne
line Of investigation. Finding M
one at home, Bradley put his cal.
ing card In the door.
The last witness on the stand
today was Mrs. Gertrude r. Bar
tells, proprietor of the rooming
house at which Wan and his
brother Van lived in New York.

Excellent Sign

While the Kaiser strives to regain his imperial
castles and estates, the German people, freed from
the curse of militarism, signing petitions ask
ing that a law be passed by which all royal prop
erty will be confscated by the state and the pro-
cecds be devoted to war victims. 1t has been esti-
mated that within two weeks some four million sig
natures will be secured.
The Kaiser is flooding the country with argu-
ments why the royal family is justified in its de-
mands upon the state That the people are not i'm
pressed is shown by their willingness to sign petit
tons.
This is most encouraging sign that the German
people are rapidly becoming used to the republican
form Of government A few sacrifices on the part
of the Kaiser in behalf of the widows and war
manned is surely net amss. Here is hoping thai
the petitioners rather than the deposcd royalty
win out

Another Forward Step
THE jamestown SUM

The city of jamestown, through it's mayor an!
city council took another forward step Monday
night in authorizing twenty additional blocks of city
pavement. The paving of the Red Trail or National
Parks Highway Highway No. - through the city
is especially important. The hundreds and thou
sands of tourists, who pass through the every
year, will receive much better impression of
jamestown if they glide over well paved streets
from the moment they reach the city until they
leave than they have in the past.
The paving of Fourth Avenue South to the Fair
Grounds is also important forward step, especially
in view of the movement to secure state fair here
The residents of the southern part of the city will
appreciate the pavements after the county fair
and baseball open and they begin to realize
that the dust nuisance has been largely eliminated.
The city is to be congratulated on the compare
lively small number of persons who protested
against the new paving When the business district
Of the city was paved several years ago, large
number Of the business men opposed the move
ment but it is very doubtful il single person could
be found in jamestown who would go hack "a
the old muddy rutted streets of ten years ago. The
value Of the property included in the new paving
districts viii Be increased much more than the cost
Of the pavement.

How Radicals Grow

There has been textile strike in Passac, N. j.,
and adjoining towns for several months There
has been coed deal of violence, in which the
police have used tear gas bombs and clubs on
picketing strikers, both men and women All IN
all. the thing has quite ugly aspect.
!. number of people are much exercised about II
all. They are denouncing the police. the mill own
ers everybody connected with t-except the strikers
and are calling on heaven and earth to witness the
Injustice and shame Of American industry.
They are the so-called radicals" OF course.
Their complaints won't have great deal OF effect
probably. They seldom do.
After ALL it is easy to understand why the strlk-
crs and their friends protesting. It's no FUN
to get smacked with nightstick or gassed by tear
bombs. What they're saying is to be expected
But there is another class of people that ought
to he genuinely concerned about the brutality OF
tlie pclice = class that thus far, has not shown
izSSs interest in the affair. and probably will not.
This class is composed Of industrial leaders and
siaess men generally, both in and out OF the textile
trade.
why should they be opposed to police brutality
IL this case-whei, 1t first glance, it would seem g
- ia their advantage II strikers are cowed?
There Is good reason; very good reason
There aren't many radicals in this country. bu,
business md indnstrial READERS are quite worried

about them. They ayr. indeed. 1athef ,bftaid of
them; they applaud Wien l. w. iW.s art' jailed
when communists deported.
Very well; isn't it plain that the surest way &c
make more radicals is to such methods as the
New Jersey police have used in fighting strike?
That is why business and industrial men should
be concerned
This is prosperous, satisfied country. There
aren't enough genuine radicals in it to cause trouble
in n hundred years.
But-every time the police clubs and tear gas
bombs and other bits Of brutality on striking WON
en-, new radicals are born by the dozen.
And that is something it would pay the conscrv-
ative element to keep in mind.
The radicals ought be sending letters of thanks
to the authorities at Passac and the other towns
where the clubbings have occurred.
The business men ought to he calling the po-

Let the Primary Decide
Mott Pioneer Press)

Mott Pioneer PreSS)
The two dominant factions in North Dakota
politics have each selected their tickets and We
think both composed of well qualified and honest
men, who if elected, will do all in their power in
the endeavor to carry out the will of the majority as
expressed at the polls.
The Nonpartisans have named their standard
bearer A. G. Sorlic, who has served Governor
since January LIST, 1925. He has given US good
business administration and believe North Da-
kota will be safe and sane under his leadership The
Independents have named j. M. Hanley, of Mandan
as their standard bearer and think they might
have searched long time before finding better
man for the job. So far the governorship is
concerned, North Dakota is safe.
This looks like the year when we can let the
whole matter be decided at the primary and afte1
the ticket is nominated all join in eecting it at thu
November election The issues clear and the
candidates all clean Let the questions be set
tied at the primary.
