The National Radio Addition for
1929 has awakened real enthusiasm
among music lovers throughout the
| state, and many communities that
hitherto have not participated in the
contests have organized local commit
tees and searched their highways and
| byways for local contestants. The
Addition, sponsored by the Atwater
Kent Foundation, offers a total OF
$4,000 in cash and ten musical schol-
arships to the best young singers in
the country. The ten National final
'sts, who will participate in these
awards, are selected by three steps
local additions, state additions, and
geographical district additions. Two
singers, a young lar and a young
woman, are selected from each local
addition, two from each state audi
ton which is made up of the Local
winners and two from each district
addition, for which only state winners
are eligible. This gives ten national
fnalists. These are judged in a ma
tional addition held in New York ir
December and broadcasted through
out the nation.

Lands in Long Creek

Crosby,Three Canadians. driving
a Buick roadster, met with an aut
accident on Wednesday night, when
they failed to negotiate the curve at
the approach of the Long Greek

that the car stradled the railing OF
the bridge for a considerable dis.
tants and then toppled over into
about six feet of water.
The three men had been visiting
in this city and were enroute home
when the accident occurred. They
found there way to the Hoover home
near the creek and they were ther
taken to the shack, located JUS
owe the boundary line. After dry.
ing out their clothing, they wer,
taken to Estevan, and at a late houl

Legge or any member other than
Williams and MeKelvie. Although
silent himself, Senator Brookhart,
republican, Iowa, is expected by
some senators to assail Legge's con-
tirmation.
Administration leaders have
sought to determine whether cotton
and wheat senators are combining
and have weighed the strength of
such a coalition. A number Of west
ern senators who have disapproved
of the boards failure to stabilize
wheat, including Senators Frazier
of North Dakota and Norbeck of
South Dakota, republicans, have in
dicated they would not oppose the
confirmation of any board members.
Some interest is manifest in the
probable position of Senator'S Norris
and Howell Of Nebraska in the con-
firmation of McKelvie. Although a
member of the senate agricultural
committee Norris was not present
during the examination of board
members. Neither Norris nor How
ell however, have said whether they
would engage actively in the de-
bate over McKelvie in the senate.

How Weak Nervous

If you only knew - you rundown
anemic women who are dragging

what a wonderful increase in strength
and health 1anlac will give you. you
wouldn't hesitate a moment about
going to your druggist and getting a
big bottle of this splendid medicine.

Columbus (Neb.) Daily
Telegram:

Based upon investigation made
by three splendid reporters espe-
cially assigned to the task OF
discovering violations Of the
LIQUOR laws in the City Of Wash
ington, the Washington Times
recently published some pointed
and pungent editorial expressions
regarding the lack Of desire, or
the lack of ability on part of
official Washington to dam the
regular flow of illicit intoxicat'
ing liquors in this city.
Immediately official Washing
tor demanded proof of the
charge. Neither white folks nor
black folks in Washington needed
proof of an evident fact, but the
officials went to the length of
calling the three Times report
ers before the District Grand
Jury, demanding that they give
to the jury all the evidence
which they gave to the editor
of the times. upon which evi-
dence the editor had declared
Washington to be practically
without law enforcement.
The three reporters refused to
give their evidence to the Grand
Jury. They insisted the evidence
t,..ey had unearthed and reported
to the editor of their newspaper
was gathered in line of their
duty as newspaper reporters, not
gathered in any sense as law
enforcement agents, and they
flatly refused to testify.
Thereupon one of the District
magistrates hailed the three re-
porters into court. and upon their
further refusal to divulge their
privileged information he ad-
Judged them in contempt of court
and imposed a Jail sentence of As
days upon each of the reporters.
The action of that court has

crimes, public and private.
Fact Of the matter is that many
master criminals in America have
been run down and brought to
justice by the keen newspaper
reporters.
Will the three reporters appeal
from the action of the court in
sending them to jail for con-
tempt of that particular court?
I do not know. All l know is

26 Traffic Patrols

Twenty-Six new schoolboy pa

or SO more than were operated
last year.
The District division Of the
American Automobile Association,
sponsoring the patrols, has broad
ened It's field to cover nearby Vir,
glnia and Maryland. Eighteen
patrols nave been established in
the former and two in the latter.
About 1000 schoolboys are prac-
ticing safety measures and seeing
that their schoolmates do likewise.
The organization estimates that
$500 children are protected by the

British Stop Arabs
In Raid at Jaffa

LONDON, Nov. 26 0N.S0-
Protecting against the arrest of
min rab leaders in connection
wit.A the recent disturbances be-
tween Moslems and Jews in Pale
stine, a band of 800 Arab raiders
attempted to attack the offices
of the district governor at Jaffa
today. a Central News dispatch
from that city reported last night.
The attacking band caught the
British authorities unawares, but
a hastily recruited force Of Brit
ish police dispersed the Arabs
before serious damage had been
done.
The raid was the most serious
attempted since all Palestine was
torn with dissenSion by the inter
racial rioting several months ago

which they had cOntrived TO
gather.
The position taken by the court
seems arbitrary and unreasonable.
1t is a tradition and a sound
principle in the newspaper world
that condolences shall not be be-
trayed.
Moreover, the cause Of order
and good government would lose,
not gain, were this principle re-
nOunced. Newspapers are not
prosecutors, and in a free cOun-
try will never assume that role.
Such systematic violation of law
as newspaper reporters can find
police detectives, deputy SheriffS
and agents of the States attOr-
ncy could find IL they desired to
do so.
The Washington Grand jury
and the prosecuting officials will
not succeed in shifting the re-
sponsibility which rests upon
them. The three reporters may
have to serve their IS days in
Jail, but the contempt decision
from which they suffer Is purely
technical. They have aided the
law instead of ObStructnig 1t.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Jan. 25. -
PresiG ELECT Hoover while In
Florida will select the personnel of
the commission he will appoint for
investigation of prohibition and also
will formulate general program for
tightening present enforcement.
That is one Of the problems he
took with him on his fishing expedi-
ton.
The two yachts which carried the
party to the fishing grounds off the
Florida keys have no wireless sets.
Hoover began his conquest of big
game fish today.
The Pre- ent-elect is canvaSSing
list of possible appointees for his
prohibition investigation commission,
which included representatives of
various lines of endeavor.
He wants to get capable men who
have a reputation for impartial
analysis.
He intends for the commission to
be truly impartial, so there will be
no outcry from either drys or vets
that the commission is stacked" in
favor of either partisan view.
Appointment of the commission is
expected to be one Of Hooyer's first
acts after he becomes President.
