of Marshall Ratliff for robbery By
firearms in connection with the hold
up Of the First National Bank at
Cisco last Dec. 20.

arguments for the state.
There is only one issue before
the jury" he said. Either Marshall
Ratliff is guilty of one OF the most
damnable crimes in the history Of
Eastland county or he is innocent"
He summed up evidence incrimin-
ating Ratliff, emphasizing each ques-
tion referring 10 the accused having
masked as Santa Claus. santa
Claus" Holloway said, was a trait
or to his town and q traitor to his
country"
He also emphasized testimony
tending to show the revolver pro-
duced in court and taken from a
drawer in the Cisco bank was found
in Ratliff's possession when he was
arrested.
J. Lee Cearley, opening for the de-
fense, began by calling attention 10
Mrs. Rilla Carter, mother of Ratliff,
who was sitting to Ratliffs right.
Her left arm was around her son.
Cearley stressed the charge OF reas-
enable d. lbt, and asserted the de-
fendant was innocent.
He scored the recent reward post
ed by the Texas Bankers association.
and declared that If it were not for
such a reward there would have been
no one hurt in the bank robbery.

i'm OUR
VALLEY


CAMELS, regular ones from Des-
ert OF Sahara and other points east,
once roamed the streets of Browns
VILE.
Became a nuisance.
such nuisance that the Browns
xaiie city council, back in the SOS Of
sne last century, passed an ordinance
prohibiting camels from roaming
o<he streets of our little city.
How about the camels?
Somebody in the United States
army was finding difficult the work
OF supplying troops at far-flung
army posts.
No railroads, little water in many
sections and numerous other trans
portation difficulties.
SO the idea was conceived of
bringing camels into the situation.
A shipload was bought, unloaded at
Galveston.
They were sent, via their own legs,
wherever needed.
Used for several years, but found
not SO good for the needed work.
Some were at Brownsville. Others
ut what is now Fort Ringgold.
Some got away, and lived in ex-
treme South Texas for some years.
The whole thing was written up
recently in the American Legion
Monthly.
SAMUEL W. RID-- has passed
away In Mexico City, at the age Of
rs.
OF interest to the Valley because
Mr.. Rider for years gnged in sub
division development in Mexico
City, saw an opportunity at Holly
Beach, east Of San Benito, and be-
came interested in its development
several years ago.
Was connected with the Texas
South Coast Development Co., along
with ]. A. Graham OF San Benito
and others.
He developed Chapultepec Heights.
Mexico, originally hilltop of
1000 acres, and which eventually
netted its owners some ss,00O,0 900.
TALKING about nominating Jesse
Jenes of Houston for vice-president
along with Governor Smith Of New
York.
? That would be an undesirable
combination.
The Smiths and Joneses of the ma
tion would elect the pair.
All they would have to do to
scinch" il would be to announce in
advance a cabinet consisting Of
Browns, Thompsons, Williams and
30 on.
SPEAKING of used ear advertise
nents when they appear in The
Herald:
A Rio Hondo farmer visited the
McDermott Motor Co. ,n Browns
vile.
He brought along q used ear ad-
vertisement that had appeared in
The Herald.
He left Brownsville with a good
used car.
Grocery store operators will tell
you that women shoppers will come
in, bringing with them advertise
ments announcing prices on articles
in which they are interested.
And women shoppers IN the dry
goods stores do the same thing.
These are not isolated instances.
They are extremely frequent, and in
dicate how Herald readers read their
newspaper.
The Herald wishes TO acknowledge
D little compliment from p. B.
Creager, while addressing a Browns
vile crowd of taxpayers the other
night.
He referred to it as sour fine,
progressive newspaper"
And c. L. Jessup, talking over
radio station KWWG a few nights
ago, quoted The Herald's statistics
and other data on building and gen.
leral development in the Lower Rio
Grande Valley, giving the paper
credit for the compilations.
The Herald is glad to know, from
such we'll known sources, that it is
along the road toward success in
rendering a real service to Browns
vile and the Valley generally.

CHINA Is WARNED
OF TAX REVISION
British, French and japanese Unite
in Protest Against
Change.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 20.--The Brit
ish, French and Japanese governments
have agreed upon the terms OF warn
ing to the Nationalist government OF
China that they have not accepted re-
Gently announced changes by the Chi
nese minister of finance concerning the
method of collection of the salt tax.
The foreign Office announced that the
following statement concerning the salt
eabelle, or tax, was being issued stimuli
taneously by the British, French and
japanese governments:
"The French and British Ministers
and japanese charge d'affaires have
taken note of the statement of Novem-
Der Is issued by the minister of finance
of the national government of China
dealing with the question of the service
of loans secured on the salt revenue.
From this statement 1t appears that
the minister of finance made funda-
mental alteration in the functions of
the chief inspectors OF the salt gabelle
as laid down in the reorganization loan
agreement of 1918, and the French and
British Ministers and the japanese
charge d'affaires are instructed by their
governments to make 1t clear that it
must not be implied that those govern
ments accept the scheme of the minister
Of finance as a satisfactory alternative
to the arrangement prescribed in the
loan agreement.
IF the national government of China
varies by unilateral action the terms of
international agreement, responsibility
for any consequences which may follow
such action must rest on its shoulders,
and in particular it must take full re-
sponsibility for liquidating all loans Sc
cured Hereunder, whether the scheme
which it thus proposes to bring into use
proves successful in producing the
requisite amount of revenue or not"

MAKERS OVERLOOK
SIMPLE SET DETAILS
Numbering on Dial Should
Read in KiIocyCIes, Radio
Expert Says.

In their relentless pursuit of improve
ments for receiving sets. the radio
manufacturers have overlooked mere
detail, vet one that would go long
way toward the much-scught simplifi-
cation of operation.
The manufacturers evidently are
completely oblivious to the abandon
ment by the Radio Commission and
radio engineers of the term meter"
for channel assignments and substitu-
ton of the term "kilocycle." All sta
tions now are listed under frequency
instead of the old wave-length method
The result is that the listener is be-
fuddled Practically all late models OF
tube sets bear dials marked of in
meters. together with the arbitrary
and meaningless chronological count
from l to 100. Kilocycles are forgot
ten. Lacking standardization of terms
denoting station assignments, the list
ener is forced to perform acrobatics in
higher mathematics to mark station
locations on his dial.
Franklin Y Gates. broadcasting en-
gineer of the Commission. is a proges-
sive and wants to eliminate heterodynes
from the air and confusion from the
listeners mind In order further to
simplify and promote the ease OF tun-
ing on the broadcast receivers, he sug-
gests that 1.-The radio manufacturers
should take advantage of the policy
of the Commission in having all sta
tions now listed under frequency in
stead of the old lame method of wave
length, and equip all sets with dials
to read in kilocycles direct"
The dialS, he declares should be
/ li,,irl iV1fN
marking off a frequency. of which there
are 96 in the broadcast band. The divi-
sions should be numbered from $50 to
1500 covering the entire broadcast
spectrum. and the / to 100 system of
dial markings should be forgotten.
This would allow the listener to
look at his call list or program which
is published in the local newspaper and
ascertain the frequency and then turn
to it on the radio dial without a lot
of Interpolation. he said.
The reallocation will have bearing
upon new designs of sets, but not one
of extreme Importance, according to
Mr.. Gates. This is occasioned by the
spreading out of large stations over the
entire broadcast band, whereas before
the ALLEGATION they were segregated for
the most part
This will neceSSitate more care on
| the part of set makers in design in
order that the user of his set will not
be deprived of the privilege of tuning
in on excellent stations near 1900 kilo-
cycles. the extreme end of the band
that heretofore has been used only for
small stations
! Why listeners in some cities. even
with the best equipment, are unable to
get distance during early evening hours
| Is explained by Mr.. Gates. An extern
sive study he says, has disclosed that
every station in a metropolitan area
blocks out" so kilocycles of spectrum
space on either side of that station.
| When 1t is taken into consideration that
