Develop Motor Road to
 Alaska

Trips to the Land of the Mid right Sun by automobile will be made possible in the next few years, according to s. E. Tolmie, Provincial Premier of Canada.
 This new Alaska road will form 3 continuation of the British Co., l,lmbia road system which all ready has been pushed as far north as HazeIton on the main line of the Canadian National Railways. From there the new highway will follow the old TeIe- graph Creek trail northward and
 each a point on the Alaska Boundary from which the United States can carry it as far into tl1e interior as it wishes.
 T was tremendously impress ad with the development of the tourist traffic., said MT. Tolmie, following a visit to Washington md Oregon. "The Pacific High way, extending from Tia Juana, Mexico, to the 18th parallel, has proven to be tremendous asset 5o the Pacific Coast States.
 T have been wondering how we could take advantage of this inn nense traffic to greater extent in British Columbia and think inc solution lies in the extension Of our roads in the north thru the most suitable valleys to the Alaska boundary.
 "The Congress of the United States has granted to Alaska this year $6,O0O,0OO for the devel- Cpment Of a road program. If oul lroads in northern British Colum- bia were connected with the Alaska boundary at suitable point, this would not only oper ID a vast area to settlement il our country, but would greatly increase our tourist traffic thr, British Columbia.

Contempt Bill Is
 Before Congress

Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan has introduced into the United States Senate the bill 10 restrict the power of Federal judges dealing with cases of in direct contempt, similar to re- cent cases involving newspaper men, whose purpose he describ- ed in the September issue of The American Press.
 The bill, which would amend Section 168 of the United States Judicial Code, was referred to the Committee on Judiciary. Though this bill affects only Fed eral courts, it would create a powerful precedent for other courts.
 The bill, No. 1726, reads as fol- lows:
 'The defendant in any pro- ceeding for contempt of court is authorized to file with the court a demand for the retirement of the judge sitting in the proceed ing, if the contempt arises from an attack upon the charactere CT conduct of such judge and if the attack occurred otherwise an attack upon the character than in open court. Upon the filing of any such demand the judge shall thereupon proceed no further, but another judge shall be designated in the same manner as provided in case of the approval of an affidavit of personal bias or prejudice under section 21 of the Judicial Code. The demand shall be filed prior to the hearing in the contempt proceeding"
 Tt is a service to the courts as we'll as to the press and peo- ple," said Senator Vandenberg introducing his bill. we must have no recrudescence of exc creted 'Jefreyism.' Here jus tice ends and tyranny begins."- The American Press.

Carl Philip Time is at liberty today
under personal bond pending report
of the action of the grand jury. which
is expected to ignore a charge of violat-
ing the Mann act. which was preferred
against him by United States Attorney
Leo A. Rover, after Chief Justice wal
ter /. Mccoy had ordered the deten-
ton Of Time following his acquittal by
jury of five women and seven men
on a charge of intimacy with l4-year-
old girl.
Through Attorneys John p. Mullen
and Harry S. Barger, Time had sued
out a writ of habeas corpus, which had
been scheduled for hearing before Jus

the Mann act violation before the

been submitted Ihme was summoned
from Jail and was allowed to give
personal bond pending the grand jury's
report

action of the petit jury in returning Il
verdict of not guilty after the man and
the girl had both admitted their rela-
tionS, and acting as committing mag
istrate he ordered the return Of lime
to jail. A policewoman at the direction
Of Rover then went before United States
Commissioner T'urnage and swore out
warrant for a Mann-act violation, and
lime was being held in default of bond
to await grand jury action.
