10 Sati sfactory

CAN BENITO. May ga tor
tilla making machine, manufac-
tured by hand by Juan Fernandez,
meter repairinman of the Central
Power e. Light company here, has
been demonstrated. and works sat
isfactorily.
Although the machine is the first
in this section. factories operating a
dozen or so machines for making
tortiIlas have been established In
San Antonio and other points. the
operation being along practically the
same lines as the one here.
Fernandez machine operates by
electricity, with gas heat used. The
entire operation is by machinery. the
corn being ground, worked into a
dough, and squeezed through a tube,
where II Is cut into squares, each
dropped on a sheet of metal These
sheets, about six inches square. pass
around in a circle over a series OF
gas Jets, and the tortilla is turned
over again as the sheets pass
around. A finished tortilla is turned
out at the end Of the journey over
the gas jet.
Fernandez operates the machine
an order. and il can turn out from
$500 to 1900 tortillas an hour,
There Is no prospect for establish
ing a large factory at present. how
ever, he said. because Of the size
Of the demand.
One CT these machines has been
in operation in Brownsville for the
past six months.

Judge Pays Debt
For Girl; Flags
Unwedded Couple

"I1i pay the measly $3.50 the girl
owes you out Of my pocket" Cor
poration Judge A. A. Browne roared
Tuesday TO a quaking pair before
him. And furthermore I'm getting
sick and tired OF you people who are
not legally married coming here be-
fore me. It's disgusting and dis
graceful. See that you never come
into my court again"
A preliminary hearing In the case
brought out that the young girl
owed the woman $3.50. The girl de-
clared that she was unable TO pay
the debt at present.
The woman and her common law
husband went to the girls house
and demanded the $3.50. A fight
was said to have ensued. The girl
said the couple threw rocks at her
house afterward.
The woman had hired an attorney
to represent her. The judge pointed
out that II the woman was able 10
hire an attorney she didn't need the
$3.50 very badly.
He ended the case in his court by
paying the $3.50 himself.

COMMISSION TO
BEGIN IT'S TASK
National Law Enforcement
Body Called On For
Greatest Services

WASHINGTON, May 29.-tR-
Called upon by President Hoover TO
perform "one Of the greatest SER
vices to our generation" the ma
tional law enforcement commission
today stood at the threshold of its
tremendous task Of finding cut the
facts and causes Of public disobe-
dience Of law and formulating
recommendation looking - i'm
provement.
Stating prohibition Is only one
angle Of our work." Chairman Geo.
w. wickersham asserted after the
initial meeting Of the commission
yesterday that II 1t found any law
unenforceable IL would so report.
Pressed for a statement as TO
whether the scope Of the commits
slon's authority was broad enough
to enable it TO find the prohibition
laws unenforceable, Chairman
Wickersham. q former attorney
general. declared 1t was intellect
ually possible. but, I might add,
improbable. The attitude or the
American people toward law Is not
bounded by prohibition"
My IDEAL" he said. "is to have
the organization Of law such that
it will make 1t impossible for a
person to violate the law without
being speedily brought to book.
Pres. Hoover told the commission
the American people are deeply
concerned over the alarming dis
obedience Of law. the abuses OF law
enforcement and the growth OF or
ganized crime which has spread to
every field of evil-doing and In
every part Of our country"
The problem. he said, Is not con-
fined to the enforcement and obe-
dience Of one law or the laws OF
the federal and state governments
separately, but is partly the atti-
tude toward all law"
1T is my hope" he declared
that the commission shall secure
an accurate determination Of fact
and cause. following them with
constructive. courageous conclu-
sions which will bring public un-
derstendinE and command public
support OF its solutions"
