ment.
The recordings will be made
under the supervision of the

of Pomona College, Claremont.
The astronomers wish to deter-
mine with great accuracy the
exact position and motion OF the
earth during the total eclipse.
With the advances made lately

film record can be accurately
synchronized with exact time
signals broadcast from observe

time signals will be recorded
simultaneously with the picture.
At an elevation Of about 10000
feet, the picture is expected to
include the entire shadow and
things outside it as well. Spe-
cial lenses will be used, because
the light available during the
eclipse will be comparable to
twilight.

The principle Of he Romjue

here for policemen was Endorsed
yesterday at a hearing before q
House District subcommittee BY
superintendent Henry G. Pratt
and Inspector william s. Shelby
OF the Police Department, and
by Raymond e. Kennedy head
OF Q Baltimore detective agency
However, Major Pratt and In

the idea is excellent it might be
better for the Federal Govern.
ment to contribute to the main
tenar1ce of such schools in state
colleges and universities.
Jersey School Cited
Rep. Mary r. Norton said such
g school is working successfully in
Jersey City and she would have a

20 this and adjourned the hear

superintendent Pratt said poten-

Certified after examination by

that it is possible to give the new
policemen only 80 days training
after entering the service.
In a rather imprisoned de-
Tense Of police efficiency here and

CANNON'S CRITICS
 CALL ATTACK FAIR
Say Bishop Was Notified About
 Filing Of Charges

Washington, Sept. 2s R-In the face of a protest from Bishop James Cannon, jr., over the man. ner in which new charges have been filed against him by four min isters of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, two of his accusers last night maintained they had fol- lowed "the spirit and the letter" of their church law In bringing the complaints.
 Dr. Forrest J. Prettyman of Bal timore and Rev. Costen J. Harrell. of Richmond, Va. expressed belief the bishop would be unsuccessful in having their investigation set aside. Bishop Cannon. now on his way to the United States from Brazil told the Associated Press by radio he would file protest on the ground he had not been conferred with be- fore the charges were filed.
 The four ministers advised him of their action by cable and, they said, his reply constituted acknowl- edgement of the charges. These are now in the hands of Bishop Aims worth of the college of bishops, who may appoint committee to pass on the advisability of holding a church trial.
 Dr. Prettyman expressed the opinion that on the basis of their Investigation, we have neither the moral nor the legal right to hold up the process until all the facts per taining to this case are brought into full review"
 The two churchmen, here for a session of the Baltimore conference of the church.. refused to divulge their charges.

representative newspaper or newspapers, and there will al- ways be found someone to meet the demands. Almost without exception it may be found that a town has just about as good a newspaper as it deserves; sometimes better than it deserves.
 In this connection a quot ation from an address by Jas. J. O'Shaughnessy, former ex- ecutive secretary of the Amer ican Association of Advertising Agencies, is to the point. In the light of his many years of ex- perience in dealing with news papers, he says:
 "I have been widely quoted as saying that the village week ly newspaper is the corner stone of American journalism. No one has disputed thatassert- ion. Modern communities, large and small, grow and prosper in the wake of their newspapers. If their news papers are prosperous, retail business prospers and real es- tate appreciates in value"

is. They do it by sending away for merchandise which might be bought with equal advan- tage at home. They do it fre- quently through thoughtless- ness, but often through sheer disregard for the welfare of the community of which they are a part.
 The doctrine of buy at home s not advanced solely in the in- terest of individual merchants. 1t is advocated because every citizen of town is to a certain extent dependent upon every other citizen for his own pros perity, Business men are some times as greatly at fault as any one else in the matter of put-of-
 own trading. We know of To- gal business men who buy vir- iually nothing from other loc .l business men except the food hey eat.
 If the shoe dealer sends away or his automobile tires, and
 he automobile man sends away for his furniture, and the
 furniture man sends away for ,lothing, and so on, how can
 hey expect to build local pros perity?
 All the fine talk about civic pride that we may indulge will never make a town, so long as the life blood of the commun- ity-the cold cash--is spent elsewhere. A man may make boosting speeches until he is black in the face, but unless he 1pends his money where he makes it he is a hometown grave-digger.

Watch Your Vote

With the election only three days off, voters should take proper cognizance of the var ious candidates for Territorial office and what they represent, in order that they may exersizo the elective franchise with in telligence and good judgement
 All too often in the past have the voters of Alaska disregard ed both attributes in selecting those who conduct legislation and government on behalf of the people. The result of such attitude has been that in many instances men have been elect ed to fill important government; offices totally without regarC to their fitness for the dutie involved or their capacity tc perform them.
 This has been particularly true of the legislature, wherc we have at times assembled as motely a crew of incompetents and misfits as ever were seen in a legislative assembly. And the effect of this lack of proper care on the part of the voters has been poor governmental administration and a cluttering up of the Territorial statutes with a vast mess of legal enact ments that mean little or noth- ing or are entirely unconstitut- ional and void.
 It is high time this was stopped but the only way in which it can be accomplished is for the voters to consider we'll the capacities and general fitness for office of those for whom they vote.
