 "Yes, and if you turn me over to the sheriff in Red Butte I'll tell how Bruce Carey murdered the cashier.

THE FATAL CANTEEN

In the same instance that Don evan reached for his gun and called to Bruce to drop the raised canteen Pierre appeared behind Donovan, climbing over the low wall of rock.
 Donovan's attention was so cen tered upon Bruce that he was un- aware of the entrance of third actor on the scene. But Bruce saw.
 Pierre's face was distorted with horror. He crouched on the rock with every muscle tense while sheer terror held him motionless
 Who shall attempt to say wha' thoughts flashed through the tor. tured brain of Bruce Carey at thi! dramatic development? Did he fee believing that Pierre hac arrived in time to save him? Die he consider Pierre an additiona danger? Did he think that what ever the outcome, Donovan would rot dare to do the thing he threatened? Or did he deliberately move to end his own torment by haunting the man to the point of killing?
 With an insane laugh Bruce de- fiantly lifted the canteen to hi lips.
 Pierre tried to shout but nt sound issued. He could not move He knew that Bruce saw him anC wondered why he showed no sur prise As Bruce lifted the can teen he saw the other man bring his gun up to position. Suddenl, whatever it was that held hin let go, and with no conscious mus cular effort, he threw himsel upon the man who was about tt kill. The roar of the gun wa in his ears even as the fury O his attack bore the one who hat fired it to the ground. The gun itself fell several feet away. Bruc twisted half around, the canteel fell from his hand, and the banl clerk went down in a writhini heap.

Matthew Vol Tells Radio
Audience of Congress of
Industry Program.

Further details Of his proposed Con-

10-year program of development de-
signed to avoid commercial slumpg. were
given to a radio audience last night by

Sharing the program with him was
James w. Gerard, chairman of the Ma
tional Civic Federation'S Commission
on Industrial Inquiry. who has invited
more than 600 national organizations
to participate in the proposed congress.
Mr.. Woll expressed these hopes for
his congress: 1T is proposed to bring
about an authorized representative
gathering of persons who can speak for
the economic forces of the Nation, and
to make a beginning in the voluntary
adoption of rules Of procedure and the
invitation of operations which shall
lead to the construction of q national
scheme of economic operation. This
must include industry, trade, transport,
agriculture, labor, extraction of raw
materials, credit and finance channels
and service equipment.
such a plan of economic balancing
should embrace the determination of
the annual national human require
ments in commodities and service, say
for an ensuing 10 years; the immediate
visible supply Of required commodities;
the apportioning of required labor hours
for the required production and han
ding, to point of consumption, Of such
commodities; the character and extent
of industrial equipment required to in
telligently guide the task of its design,
construction and installation; the I'M
mediate and continuing distribution of
the necessities of life among the entire
population, using all resources OF en-
ployment, manufacture and credit dis
tribution requisite to that end, and the
outline of legal enactments necessary
and convenient to remove obstacles and
to facilitate the operations of the sug-
geSted program. The Congress
Of Industry that is in mind should out
line its own course and direct it own
destiny"

AGE LIMIT FOR VISITING SENATORS

The only place where we have noticed criticism of the ageimit regulation actively in force the Alaska Railroad, asd from what has been published in The Gateway appeared recently in advertisement in Fairbanks paper we have since learned the advertisers copy has been censored.
 It is true, there is such regulation in force the railroad; in fact there always has been such ruing but it took last years Solomons from Washington the socaled senatorial investigation (wreckng) committed to demand it's enforcement Manager Ohlson states that between the ages of 5O60 and up to the 70's on the railroad payroll and performing their labors well however, physical examinations occasionally exclude fine old pioneer odtmer from obtaining posi- tion for this is the only safeguard the railroad has, he said from developing into pension bureau, via the compensation route. This number already, he added, large
 One thing Colonel Ohlson emphasized whenever and wherever possible AlaSkans young or Old will be given first consideration.
 But to get back to the destructive policies nstgated by the 1880 Investigators It may be recalled Henry Ford fired his very efficient general superintendent for n sisting the age limit Seems though that ecien cy to the nth degree Apparently there is something to this numeroogy and astrology business Give the date of birth and we'll divide by your telephone number and get your efficiency quotent So simple Agnes. Of course, more accuracy if you the exalted freight rate diviscr. This seems test of the Hooveran system He also had mathematical algebrac solu- ton of the navy disarmament problem. Peace by calcu- Ills. Prosperity by the cube root.
 The men Of 50 and over, generally speaking blazed he trail for the railroad apparently so that they could stave to death But those visiting senators were so ob serving. They adopted the Eskimo method pushing the aged out of the igoo and letting them starve It's safe to assume that the Eskimo wouldn't do this when they got too many seals though An age limit should be made for visiting senators. Should be low, too as they suf- fer from premature senty If the brans" at the top could solve the problem of superabundance which the e ficency at the bottom has produced, wouldn't be bothered with such tragic bunglng as age limitation

DAVIDSON FILES
PETITION TO GET
DEFAULT HEARING

Continuing his efforts to obtain
in his favor against San Francisco
county officials last winter, William
Caine Davidson yesterday afternoon
filed in the county clerks office a
request for a default hearing so
that he might obtain a Judgment
and a writ of execution thereon.
H. I. Mulcrevy, San Francisco
county clerk; Thomas Finn, former
bay county sheriff, and L. w.
Helscher, cashier of the Liberty
bank of San Francisco, are those
against whom default was entered
in Davidson's million dollar dam
age suit for alleged false imprison-
ment in San Quentin.
After the default was entered
here, Judge Vaughn N. Thompson
granted a motion of defense attor-
neys for a change of venue to San
Francisco, where a defense motion
to dismiss the suit was granted.
1t is the contention of Davidson
the local court could not grant
motion for change of venue after
default had been entered, and that
the case against Mulcrevy, Finn
and Helscher is still open in local
courts.
In his petition he requested he be
allowed to present evidence and OBJ
tain a judgment on the default.
