BREAKS RECORD
IN RADIO SALES
Makers of Majestic Sets to
Enlarge Plants.

A solid trainload of Majestic cleo
trio radio receivers, fifteen carloads,
valued at more than half million
dollars, has arrived in Pittsburgh
in an effort to meet the demand for
the Majestic product. This is the
largest single shipment of complete
console radio receivers ever shipped
by any manufacturer into the Pitts
burgh market.
A similar shipment was recently
made to Atlanta, Ga; another to
Seattle, Wash, and other trainload
will go to various key
cities in the United States this
month.
Although February net sales were
the largest in the company's his
tory, totaling approximately S12,OOO,-
900 at retail prices, the Grigsby-
Grunow Company is more oversold
today than it has been at any pre-
viouS time. 1t is expected that March
sales will again set a new record.
The recent release of the Majestic
radio-phonograph with
the new type electric pickup has
met with great favor, and plans are
now under way for increasing the
production on this model to 1000
daily.
Distributor orders at hand total
ing $120,O00,0o0 have caused Grigs-
by -Grunow Company to erect addi-
tional factories and take over
others.
New factories = are now being
erected, which will be capable of
housing 1000 more employees.
In addition to this Grigsy-Grunow
Company have recently acquired a
large veneer factory in New Albany,
Ind, the purchase of which involved
more than a million dollars.

forced to Increase the floor space Of
Its radio department.
Saul Solomon, president, reports
the largest radio business in the

three months, which he attributes to
the fact that the home once more is

Solomon says, "a few years ago it
freely was predicted that the Amer
lean home was doomed. Outside
distractions we're disrupting family
life. and the f1reside was being left
to the undisputed possession of the
house cat. Suddenly the marvels
of radio burst upon the world and a
great scurrying back to the paternal
domicile took place.
To-day people are buying more

This statement, made by Nathan

illustration for one of the, reasons
leading to the tremendous record
established by his company in the
sale of radios during the last year.

 There were 81 cases in which judgments were rendered against the United States, and 59 cases in which judgments were entered in favor of the United States, invOlv- ing $925,155. In the judgments which were entered against the government the claimants recover ed $839,499 less than the amount claimed in their petitions. Several cases were appealed by the claim ants and by the government to the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, but none of the cases reached the United States Supreme Court. Recommendation were made by the United States District Attorney for writs of certiorari to be filed, but after thorough consid- eration it was concluded that the stated grounds would not justify the government asking the Su- preme cour to review these cases. The claim were very old and the government had consid- erable difficulty in securing in formation upon which to base defense.

JUDGEMENTS AGAINST GOVERN MENT FOR S1.665,663 IS REIN
 DERED

WASHINGTON, Aug, 6, (P-The Department of Justice announces that the long standing Bering Sea litigation at last has been ended with 81 claimants obtaining judg- ments against the government and 59 cases in which judgment was for the government.
 This litigation, growing out of sealing losses in the Bering Sea be- tween 1886 and 1896, by reason of government interference, was au- thorized by a special act of con- gress. The Department explained in it's statement that it had been extremely difficult to find grounds of defense in many instances, be- cause of the time elapsed since the alleged damage occurred.
 Following is the full text of the statement:
 Out of the total amount of claims aggregating S3,420,317, filed against the government in what is known as the Bering Sea litigation, judg- ments were secured by the claim ants totaling $1 ,665, ,663 which have been certified to the Treasury De- partment for payment. The details of these results are contained in a report received by the Department of Justice from the northern dis trict of California.
 The suits of this litigation were filed under authority of a special act of congress passed on June 27, 1904, which conferred jurisdiction on the United States District Court for the Northern District of Cali fornia to hear and determine claims of American citizens for sealing losses in the Bering Sea during the years 1886 and 1896, by reason of the government interfer-

GUARANTEEING BANK DEPOSITS
(Dlluth Herald)

For about hundred legislators have been trying
70 devise some method Of guaranteeing bank deposits
that would work Many schemes have been put into the
laws OF various states and without exception all failed
when they were subjected to real pressure.
Il has seemed impossible to get guaranty fund great

WORK AND THE CRIMINAL

Manufacturers opposed to wide distribution Of
prison made goods because they cannot compete with
them Labor organizations have fought prison factories
on the ground that they tend to lower wages
On the other side the thousands of prisoners for
whom forced deness further mental and physical
degeneration criminologists penologiss welfare
workers who know the corrective powers of work for
the criminal.
Between the two millions OF people who sympathze
with the manufacturer and wage Garner and at the
same time realize that there be more and larger
prison factories instead of fewer facilities for prison
labor The laynan Is convinced that existing economic
conditions forbid any that would increase unem-
poyment or lower wages but he is equally convinced
that something must be done to make prison real re-
formatories instead Of colleges of crime.
Modern thought deals with rehabilitation Of
prisoners than with punishment. Possibly idleness is
the worst punishment but 1t is costly taxpayers and
it turns back to society women who have been
schooled in crime rather than some means of making
an honest living
In the light OF these facts congress the state leg
