position, President Martin A. Leese
IF the chamber said:
THE Bureau of Engraving and
Printing is a welcome addition to the
exhibits we are planning for the in.
dustrial exposition. We are planning
to include the large Government
plants, because they are truly Wash.
ngton industries. They employ thou.
stands, and represent an integral part
of the economic side of the COM
munity.
we are pleased to have the bureau
for the further reason that it is an
outstanding example of the possibility
of making a large industrial structures

placed are desira BILE

Col Bell said that following the

Although the ?. [. C. does not permit parallel routes to be es- tablshed. there seems to be no ob- Jacuon TO routes between the same tarmini so long as the territory served in between differs.

SENATE ID DECIDE
 ARE.SM|TH STATUS
Situation First in History Of
 Country

Washington, Oct 3 LP-A decid- cdly unique if not unprecedented situation confronts the senate in the case Of William S. Ware. serator- elect from Pennsylvania.
 Wares right to a seat is disputed because of huge expenditures in his primary campaign and by his dem ccratic opponent in the general cleo ton, William B. Wilson, who charges general fraud in a number of counties.
 The problem for the senate, and more particularly for the democrat ic leaders; is which of the two counts shall first be considered. If the former member of the house and republican boss" of Philadel- phia, is denied the oath of office. parliamentarians say the Wilson contest cannot be pressed as the sen- ate, in effect. at least will have declared the seat vacant
 As a result of disclosures already made in the Philadelphia courts some democrats believe there is a strong possibility that if the Wilson contest is pressed, sufficient irregu- larites will be uncovered 10 bring about the seating of the former la bor secretary.
 On the other hand others in the democratic ranks doubt that Wilson could ba seated and they favor de- rying the oath 10 Ware or other wise he will be a member of the senate for most if not all of the coming session, as it will require months 10 count the more than one million ballots cast in PennsylN The question of seating Ware and Frank W. Smith Of Illinois will be the first to engage the sonate's at tention. There is no formal contest in Smiths case, but he already has leen denied the oath under appoint nent by Governor Small because of t1cials Of public utilities corporations contributed large sums to his cam paign fund at a time when he was serving as chairman of the Illinois commerce commission.
 Should both men be refused the oath. pennsvlvania 'and Illinois would have only one-half represen- tat.on in the senate, at least at the start of the session.

instead Of demanding some form Of farm relief.
 Today the federal farm depart nenr goes a bit further in trying to uphft the farmers. T. marks the be- ginning Of the broadcast2ng of series of farming and household talks over s radio stations-whteA approximately equals the number which broadcast the recent Denp- sey-Tunnev prizefght. By the mid Ile 0. the month more than loo sta tions will broadcast the government farm intormation-which will break all records and evidently proves that when the government goes in for anything 1t IS either done brown or black.
 All Of which costs money, al though We are not made acquainted with the more prosaic financial de- tails. The use Of the thousands Of miles of telephone wire between the stations in itself must be quite a cost. We never heard Of a congressional appropriation for the purpose but that may make little difference, as government departments usually ob- tain a sufficient blanket approprl- ation 10 engage in various pursuits. The number of radio receiving sets on the farms, however, IS not . what 1t ought to be. Some farmers, 1t appears, are still too poor to in dulge in radio mechanics and show a disposition to prefer going to bed before reception conditions are their l best. At least, We have yet 10 hear Of an agricultural DN hunter staying mp to a. m. in order to land a good log of faraway stations, This isn't being done, 1t appears, when the cows need attention a few hours later.
 The question therefore arises, in view of this farm talk broadcas,ing, how large proportion of the na- ! tion's farmers are going 10 hear ii? Or is 1t the idea to. stimulate the purchase ot receiving sets on the farms? Or does the scheme possess ! political possibilities?
 Many farmers have told radio in vestigators that they are not inter
 estad in losing sleep in order to
