Rouskie Kills 21 Dogs
 In Month of September

Twenty one unlicensed dogs were killed by Dog Warden Thomas Rous- l1ie, and two others, one with rabies and one vicious dog, were also killed during September, according to the monthly report of the dog warden. Besides these 23 dogs, six others were captured and redeemed by the owners or sold.
 Warden Rouskie had several com- plaints during the month from per sons who claimed to have been bit ten by dogs. One man on Hampton street made complaint of being at- tackled by a dog and his shirt rip ped from his body. but upon inves- tigating, Warden Rouskie said he found that the dog attacked the man after the man had tried to attack the dogs mistress.
 Another complaint was from a woman whose little girl had been scratched by the teeth of a dog said to have been owned by a wom- an living in a block near the fire headquarters. Investigation showed that the woman had many puppies

FRENCH IMPRESSED
 BY WHEAT ORDER
Believe Grain Will Have to Be Imported Eventually

Paris, Oct. 6 R,-Farmers of France have attached great impor- tance to the governments ban on wheat dumping by Soviet Russia be- cause it is expected, owing to an in- ferior French crop, that the govern ment will be obliged to authorize the purchase of foreign grain.
 It is permissible this year to pur- chase abroad about 100 per cent of the total consumption. Some cereal centers have predicted that this quota may be doubled
 The ministry of agriculture has stated firmly that the wheat decree is not the beginning of a commercial war against Russia but simply a. necessary precaution to protect French consumers, who would not be benefited by lower priced Rus sian wheat for the reason that the difference in price represents only an added profit for middlemen. Moreover, officials have emphasized that the soviet government controls strictly all of it's imports.
 If more foreign wheat is pur- chased it is believed by many that one result of the French decree will be the probably placing of more or ders for grain on the Americas.
 From Dunkirk today came a re- port that bales of old rags consign- ed from Russia to paper factories ill France were found to contain thousands of long disused stockings and Cossack coats together with uniorm of the czarist army in an unhygienic condition.

HOOVER SHUNS ALL
 POLITICS ON TOUR
Presidents Action Said to Be Disappointment to Politicians

Washington, Oct. G. (UP)-Presi- dent Hoover's decision to shun po- litics in his swift swing around the | little eastern circuit-Cleveland Boston and Kings Mountain, S. C. has created disappointment in re- publican congressional campaign circles.
 The republican nominees who are up for election next month are known to have asked for letters of endorsement and others have sought to get the president to appear in their home state in their behalf.
 While these appeals have all been turned down, with a single excep- tion, (that of Rep. Carol Reece, repn., Tenn.) it was thought the executive would at least lend some aid to the republican senatorial setts during his visits there. The campaign battle is waxing warm in these two states and congressional campaign headquarters looked to the executive to lend a helping hand
 His refusal to do so was carried to such an extent during his recent Cleveland trip that he failed to pose for a picture or appear in public with Senator Roscoe McCulloch, republican incumbent. McCulloch boarded the presidential train be- fore it arrived in Cleveland, but did not ride with MT. Hoover in the parade or appear with him when he delivered his speech. Their associa- tion was confined to two private conferences. one on the train and another at MT. Hoover's hotel.

POLITICAL UNREST
 SWEEPS SPAIN
UneasineSS Follows New Out
 breaks in Many Districts

Madrid, Oct. R1A surge of political unrest over Spain caused considerable uneasiness here to- day.
 Student strikes and political az itation in Bilbao and Barcelona, and renewal for separation from Spain provoked considerable worry in government circles, it was learn ed.
 Bilboa reported that a general strike involved more than 10000 workers started this morning. Police and civil guards are patrolling the streets in readiness to suppress any violence which might develop Sun day with holding of a political meet ing at the Monarchial Union.
 Organized workers opposed this political group and called the gen. eral strike in protest at its meeting and with the intention, if possible, of breaking up it's assembly. Some feared the workers might attempt to disband the gathering forcibly.
 The situation in Barcelona today was reported to be tense with ar- rests of the reds and communists, labor agitators and political extrem- ists, but with little information about them.

enough to cause instant death" | His two hearers sat back and | looked at him; Winslow, his face like chalk, was incapable of speech.
 Well what then?" questioned Thorne. Was his sudden death due to angina pectoris or the rup- ture of an aneurism ?'
 The surgeon shook his head. "To neither one." he said simply. We i found nothing organically wrong."
 Tn other words" Thorne' spoke slowly, thoughtfully, you imply Dr. Kane did not die from accidental injuries, nor from natural causes" He regarded Winslow, who sat hanging on their words, his face q study in expressions. Well, Dr. McLane, what killed Kane%
 The physician glanced cautious ly at the boudoir door to make cer- tain that it was still closed.
 The exact cause of death I am not prepared to say now" he said, weighing his words carefully; "a further blood test will determine the poison used.'
 "Poison." Winslow half rose from his chair, then sank back as the hall door was thrown uncere- m oniously open to admit an agitat- eG butler

 AN EAVFSDROPPER
 The door of the telephone booth swung outward as Jack Winslow brushed by it's departing occupant so closely>as to jog her elbow.
 Taking out her vanity case the woman haphazardly added a touch or powder here and there to her al ready rouged cheeks, her eyes being more busily engaged in watching young Winslow's features reflected in the powerful magnifying mirror on the open lid of. her box, than in observing her own countenance.

COURT CONSIDERS
 1. CONGESTION ANGLE
Lower Federal Branches Unable
 to Handle Business

Washington, Oct. P)-The su- preme court opened a new term to- day with the issues before it over shadowed bysth pressing problem of congestion in the lower federal courts.
 On the eve of converting, Chief Justice Hughes made public recom- mendations of the senior circuit judges that five new district judges be appointed to help stem the mounting tide of criminal and civil cases with which the courts are find ing it impossible to keep abreast. 800 Cases Waiting
 The supreme court itself, all nine members present and in good health, had before it 500 cases, com pared with 4s2 last year, in which it set a record by disposing of everything on the docket. Its first two weeks will be devoted to elimi- hating all cases it cannot consider for lack of Jurisdiction. Then the justices will take up the appeals which must be adjudged on their merits.
 Besides the five new judges who would serve in southern New York, eastern New York, northern Geor- gia, eastern Michigan and West Vir- ginia, the circuit judges recommend ed making permanent Is temporary district judgeships and one circuit judgeship. Congress provided these in 1922 but limited them to the lifetime of the appointees.
 Location of Appointments
 Two are in Massachusetts, two in southern New York, one each in eastern New York. western Pennsyl- vania, eastern Michigan, western Missouri, southern New Jersey, northern Texas, northern Ohio, eastern Missouri, southern California, Arizona, southern Iowa and Minne- sota. The circuit judgeship is in the district embracing California and adjacent western states.
 The courts, the judges reported, are disposing of more cases than ever before but the business is gain ing on them. It is the district courts that are most conspicuously falling behind, as Chief Justice Hughes found the courts of appeal were reasonably abreast"
 Pending on June 30 before the district courts were 155,73O cases about 1000 more than the year be- fore. During the year 19s.475 cases were presented-approximately g. 500 more than in the previous year. The increase was particularly mo- ticeable in bankruptcy and other private suits.
 The government in 1880 brought S7.305 criminal cases of which 56,- 992 were charges of prohibition vio- lation. Its civil actions numbered 24,934. with 11,SS2 related to pro- hibition. The figures all showed in- creases of some hundreds above the previous year. Of 35.S49 criminal cases unsettled at the end of June, 22,671 dealt with prohibition.
 Many Important Cases
 The supreme court has before it many cases of great importance but none of outstanding national inter est. Several of those brought this year may have significant effects on the radio industry, the moving sic lures and the railroads. Prohibition cases are on the docket, too, one of them seeking to overthrow the Jones and 10 law, another attack ing the constitutionality of the Vol stead act and the 18th amendment itself. Tax controversies exceed any other class in number.
 The court will not hear argu- ments of counsel until October 20.
