RESOLUTION TABLED
 BY HOUSE, 36l TO 8
Dean of Democrats Offers Motion that Blocked
 Move to Impeach

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13. The House by vote of 361 to 8 rejected the move by Representative Louis T. Me Fadden, of Pennsylvania, a Republican, for impeachment of President Herbert Hoover on the grounds he betrayed his country on war debts.
 The resolution charged the President "failed to obey and uphold the law passed by the Seventy-second Congress for bidding cancellation, in whole or in part of the war debts due the United States from foreign nations and is en- deavoring and has endeav0r- ed to nullify contracts exist ing between the United States and foreign debtors"
 POU MOVES
 The resolution was tabled on motion of the Democratic Dean of the House, Edward W. Pou, Democrat of North Carolin a, with opposition votes only from Representa- tives Blanton of Texas, Grif- fin of New York, Patman of Texas, Romjue of Missouri, Sweeney of Ohio, Black of New York, Hancock of North Carolina, all Democrats, and McFadden, himself.
 The House, stunned for the time being by the suddenness of Me- Fadden's moving of the resolution of impeachment, recalled similar attacks by the Pennsylvanian on President Hoover that led to his party removing the patronage priv ilege from him after he had as- sailed the President a year ago O,, tho ,,,o,.a to,.it,,,
 Later, Pennsylvania Republicans in the House demanded his resig- nation as Secretary of the States delegation as the result of his move for impeachment. Heard in Silence !: It was a hushed House that ! greeted the charges made by Me- l Fadden. Hardly whisper was heard when the reading clerk ran through the first part of the 18- i pags excoriation of the President. Representative McFadden did not add to this when he offered his resolution.

TWO NATIONS
 MAKING DEBT
 RESERVATIONS
France and Great Britain Will Pay Thursday
 Future Outlook

PARIS, Dec. 13.-In a new note prepared today for transmission to Washington, France declares inten- tion to pay the $20,0o0,00O interest due Thursday but asks that this payment be counted as part of the eventual accord.
 The note also asserts that if 9 settlement of debts cannot be made, France will be unable to henceforth support the situation which can ks justified only by the payments of reparations.
 British Stand
 It is known here that the laconic British note sent to Washington, also promising to pay the debt in- stallment, signifies there has been no change in the basic British pol icy of cancellation of debts or re- vision. Great Britain will pay her 95,509,O00 but still with the under standing that it is later to be ap- piled on the final settlement. Great Britain stated in the note the pay ment Thursday will be the last the nation will make under the present funding scheme.

WELCOME NEWS

The announcement that General Manager O. F. Ohl- son has been given the privilege of reducing rates the Alaska Railroad will come as welcome news and may be credited to gesture seeking to compose what had become wide breach between the dwellers of the Rail Belt anG the Federal government.
 This broadening of the powers Of General Manager Ohson carries another gnficance in that it indicates that the Department of tEe Interior has last escaped the clutches of such Nebraskas "Howl" and the embems of medocrity which composed his senatorial committed
 It has long been felt that given opportunity to dis play judgement in the management of the railroad in- stead of being compelled to conform a formula created by men who know nothing of ralroading the general manager and the people of the Rail Belt could easily con- pose any differences of opnon and together on general program calculated to make the railroad fin ancla success while at the time efecting the aims and purposes fer which 1t was constructed
 Turnout the entire difference of opinion respecting 1relght and passenger rates the question has been so much one of resentment of added costs as one of prnc e This action of rcnstang the passenger fares to their original status will go far compose this difference and enlist the cooperation o all communities in assisting the management in successful operation.
 It IS safe t. predict that General Manager Ohlson will in due time readust the freight rates to meet the exingencies of the situaton thing vitay pressing in view of the rapid approach of the time when ore ship mens will Ee travelling the railroad A special rate this class of traffic would go far toward encouraging development of those regions holding back because of excessive freight rates

FROM "THE 0uTCAST" WILL GO n
 PAYMENT DLD DEBTS

''The Outcast," the third major play offered by the Little Theater Club, will bring to the Seward public on December 16, at the Liberty theater, a sparkling three act comedy drama that enjoyed unusually long engagements on prominent Eastern stages.
 Full of situations that hold the interest of it's patrons at high de- gree through the entire perfor- nance, the play is vastly intrigu- ing. It is hilarious in spots and pathetic in others. It is witty, clever and mirthful.
 The receipts from the play will be used to pay off local contrac- tors the remaining indebtedness incurred earlier in the year when the Little Theater Club had built, and presented to the town, the excellent stage in the high school assembly.
 Because of it's. splendid civic spirit, and the fact that it's pre- viouS presentations of popular stage plays were we'll put on, it is expected that "The OutcaSt" will draw full house one week from Friday, in the Liberty theater.

the road from Greenhurst to
Bay View, owned by j. Ran
dolph Janney, was destroyed by
fire on Saturday morning last,

fore their discovery.

The family occupying the
dwelling had just moved in the
day before, and lost most of
their household effects.
In the afternoon of the same
day the firemen were called to

WINTERS FIRST SNOW

Saturdays snow blanketed
the earth with a mantle of
white to the depth of between
two and three inches. 1t was
the first snow of any proper
ton of the winter.
Fine flakes began falling fit
fully about eight o'clock in the
morning. The snowfall con-
tinued throughout the day, and
at night turned into a fine
drizzle of rain, which froze,
covering everything with a
coating of ice. This drizzle
continued on Sunday, making
auto travel hazardous, as the
fine mist coated windshilds, OBJ
structing vision. Autoists re-
sorted to lighted candles back
of their windshields, and other
means to overcome the difficult
ty, but the icy condition Of the
roads increased the hazard and
numerous accidents were re-
ported.
