j. S. WOULD RECALL
Ware CASE APPEAL
Asks Supreme Court to Dis
miss Motion Affecting 7. W.
Cunningham.

The Supreme Court was asked by the
Government Friday to dismiss its
appeal for review Of the Circuit Court
order that Thomas W. Cunning Gam Of
Philadelphia, under indictment for con-
tempt of the Senate In the VaJe ssGe.
be discharged from custody.
The motion was made in the form Of
a suggestion of abatement" after .
technical error had been discovered in
the appeal, In that it had been brought
in the name of former United States
marshal rather than in that Of the in
cumbent.
Witness Not Released.
Should the Supreme Court follow the
suggestion of the Government 1t Is
understood this would leave Cunning
ham In the custody of the Philadelphia
marshal for removal to Washington.
Cunningham testified before the Sen
ate Campaign Funds Committee that
he contributed $4,000 to the Ware
senatorial campaign of 1925, but re-
fused to answer questions as to the
source of this money.
A Federal grand jury here indicted
him for contempt of the Senate. Habeas
at Philadelphia were unsuccessful but
the Circuit Court of Appeals ordered
his release.
Questions Not 'Tmpertinent."
1t held the questions Cunningham
refused to answer were not impairment
to the Ware investigation and that his
refusal to answer them did not consti-
tute crime.
The Governments appeal urged the
Supreme Court to review the case and
argued that to allow the ruling of the
Court of Appeals to stand would estab-
lish q harmful precedent.
The action Of the Court of Appeals
was taken after the Senate had voted
to refuse Ware q seat.

Slippery Highways Call
for Caution by Drivers
Regulate Speed According to Road
Condition, State Patrol Chief
Warns

A warning against fast driving
on slippery roads was issued this
week by Earle Brown, chief of the
Minnesota Highway patrol. Driv-
ers are urged to keep an eye on
the other fellow and make allow
ances so that they can always stop
in the clear space ahead.
"A light shower may make an
unpaved road slippery and very
dangerous in a short time," Mr.
Brown points out. "A speed which
is perfectly safe when the roads
are dry may be very dangerous
when there is thin layer of mud
or wet clay on the road surface.
"Wet pavements may be very
treacherous if there is a coating of
dirt, leaves or other absorbent ma
terial. They are also dangerous on
frosty mornings, and still worse
when sleet storms come a little lat
er in the season. The motorist
accustomed to driving at high
speeds must learn to slow down
when the road surfaces are icy or
slippery. If he fails to do so, he is
counting disaster.
"The fall and winter season illus
trates the futility of trying to en-
force arbitrary speed limits. A
speed which is safe one day may
be very dangerous on the same road
the next day. The careful driver
must gauge his speed by the con-
dition Of the road and the traffic.
when roads are slippery, it is
more important than ever to make
allowance for what the other fel-
low may do. If the other driver
makes a sudden stop or turn with
out signaling, or if he has a mis-
hap, 1t may mean disaster If you
are going fast and try to stop or
swerve to avoid hitting him.
1T Is a good rule at all times to
keep your car under control so that
you can stop in the clear space
ahead, but when roads are slippery,
you must drive slower to be able
to stop in the same space"

Minnesota Supreme Court
Has Unusual Record
1t Continues in Session Through
Year Until Cases Are
Disposed

During the past five years the
work of the supreme court of the
State Of Minnesota has been in
creasing so rapidly that an aver
age of $50 appeals from district
court verdicts and decisions are
now received by the tribunal an
nually, according to the compila-
ton by Grace Kaercher Davis,
clerk of the supreme court.
Notwithstanding the large num-
Der of cases for study by the
court, some records and briefs filed
being volumnious, that body is
able to announce most of it's de-
cisions within 80 days after the
case is submitted for decision after
final arguments by attorneys.
The Minnesota court continues
through the year until cases ap-
pealed are disposed of and, accord
ing to Grace Kaercher Davis, who
has made survey of the methods
in other states, it is one of the few
high courts which attempts such a
task, many tribunals hearing a set
number Of cases yearly and permit
ting the list of continued cases to
grow larger year after year.
The clerk of the supreme court,
and assistants are important fac
tors in permitting the appellate
body to maintain the schedule that
permits the hearing of so many
appealers annually. The clerk Of
the court must receive all notices
Of appeals and the accompanying
briefs, index them, and determine
whether or not they are filed with
In the time limit established by
law.
In addition to che $50 district
court appeals annually, many mo-
lions for rehesring, ard the like,
and proceedings asking for a re-
view of the actions of a lower
court or commission, not on
grounds Of appeal on points of law,
ire brought before the court re-
luiring the same procedure.

New Pavements Connect
IoWa-Minnesota Points
Hawkeye State Completed LOCO
Miles New Highways
This Year

The state of Iowa is nearing the
completion Of it's 1880 paving sea-
son, with more than 1000 miles of
concrete built this summer, making
total paved mileage of more than
$500. The work done this year on
some of the through routes is of
special interest to Minnesota mot
orists who may travel to Iowa or
points south.
Paving done on u. S. 65 in Iowa
and Minnesota IT. H. No. y this
year now provides an all paved
route from a great many points in
Minnesota, as far north as Virgin
ia and as far west as Benson, Alex
andria and Brainerd, through Des
Moines to the Missouri state line.
Branching off to the east from
No. IS, one may go on pavement
at Dubuque to Chicago and the
east, or to st. Louis via Davenport.
Part of the way there is a choice
of several paved routes in Iowa to
reach either Dubuque or Daven-
port.
Leaving u. S. No. 65 at Ames, U.
s. No. 30 via Dennison is paved all
the way to Council Bluffs and
Omaha to Columbus, nearly 100
miles. No. 80 is also paved all the
way east to the Atlantic coast.
From Dennison there is also a
paved route to Sioux City, Iowa
141. U. s. rs is paved from Sioux
City to Council Bluffs. Northward
from Sioux City No. IS is paved
nearly half the distance to the
Minnesota line.
All Of the larger cities in the
eastern half Of Iowa, including Ma
son City, Waterloo, Charles City,
Cedar Rapids, Ames, Iowa City,
keokuk in the extreme southeast
of Iowa and many intervening
points can now be reached by all
paved routes from Minnesota.
U. s. "a, an east and west route
from Burlington to Council Bluffs,
is now paved all the way across the
state.
The State of Missouri still has a
short gap in the pavement from
the Iowa line to Kansas City.
From Kansas City south, U. S. No.
II is paved to the Arkansas bord-
er, except about Is miles.
From many points in Minnesota
there are shorter routes to Chica-.
go, Omaha and DesMoines than
the paved routes described above.
In good weather many motorists
prefer the gravel roads, but they
are glad to know that paved routes
are available when needed.
There are about rs miles unpaved
in Minnesota and 20 miles in Iowa
on U. s. No 55, the Rochester De-
corah-Dubuque route to Chicago.
On the Winona-La Crosse-Madison
route to Chicago there are about 35
miles unpaved in Minnesota and
about so in Wisconsin. The So
called northern route to Chicago
via Eau Claire and Stevens Point
was paved all the way through
a year ago.
