During the long wait, Kenneth spoke again to reporters. He said:
 If I squealed I was afraid of what would happen to my wife,"
 He refused to elaborate on this statement.
 By noon the courtroom, accom- modating perhaps 150, was filled, guards were pushing an overflow crowd away from the doors, and scores of curious were peering in the windows.
 Occasionally Kenneth chatted with Cyril but most of the time started vacantly at the judges bench.
 When he learned of the remarks Kenneth had made to newspaper men, State Detective Ernest Brad ford, who appeared as complainant questioned Kenneth. After this interview, Bradford announced that Kenneth had refuted the re- marks.
 Bradford announced that, con trary to previous reports, Kenneth would be charged with Kidnapping and extortion, and Cyril. with ex- tortion. It had been indicated that Cyril might be charged with being an accessory.

A MESSAGE TO GARCIA

One Of the most dramatic exploits of
the spanish-American War was recalled III
recent article. concerning Col. Andrew s.
Rowan, U. s. Army, retired.
In 1898, shortly before the declaration
Of war on Spain, President Mckinley de-
sired to communicate with General Garcia
of the Cuban forces, who was with his rev.
dictionary army somewhere HI the wilds Of
Cuba; Just where. no one knew. Rowan,
then lieutenant, was selected for the liaz-
ardous and Seeming impossible task Of
finding Garcia, andset out alone on his mis-.
sion.
Going first to Jamaica, he crossed to
Cuba in an open boat, and after nine-day
search, aided by Cuban patriots he found
General Garcia, delivered his message and
returned to Washington with the fnforma-
ton desired by the president, after several
narrow escapes from capture and death.
d His exploit was immortalized in Ebert
.Hubbard's editorial "A Message to Garcia, .
of which more than 40 million copies have
been printed in many languages. Rowan in
1928 wrote his own story Of "How Car
ried the Message to Garcia?',
Hubbard's editorial and Rowan's story
are both inspiring pieces of writing which
no one should fail to read.

THE SPEED or LIGHT

Marvellous as was the discovery that
sound impulses could be Transmitted by
telephone and radio, their mere transmits
sion would be of little value il they travel
ed only with the speed of ordinary sound.
To illustrate: II one were in San Fran
cisco and desired to talk to someone in New
York, and had voice loud enough to be
heard that distance, it would take nearly
four hours for the message to cross the
continent for sound travels only 720 miles
an hour.
But, fortunately electrical and radio
impulses travel with the speed of light,
which for all practical purposes is instan-
taneous for terrestrial distances, or about
5000 miles a second.
Incidently, it may be mentioned that
SO far the longest combined telephone and
radio conversation ever carried on by 4
regular toll customer was between San
Diego, California and Stockholm, Sweden,
distance of $3.50 miles BY special ar
rangement longer distances have been COW
cred.
Many improvements in telephone and
radio communications win be made in the
near future, but there viii be no increase IN
speed. Always the sounds are transmitted
with the speed of light, the speediest thing
in the universe.

GETTING THINGS DONE

Criticism of industrial and business
leaders is never lacking, but when CON-
inunity desires some important and difficult
public service performed it generally turns
to one Of these leaders for guidance We
are reminded Of this fact BY the recent Sc
lection of Thomas w. Martin. head Of the
Alabama Power Company. to head the Bir-
rningham Community Chest campaign.
Like other industrial cities, Birmfng-
ham. has been hard hit By unemployment,
and its relief problem, even with govern
nent aid, is tremendous one In view
Of Mr.. Martins impressive record, It IS no
wonder that his city turned to him in this
emergency.
His company Is recognized as one Of
the most progressive and efficient in the
country. This year It received three ma
tional prize awards from the Edison Elec-
trio Institute-one for the greatest con-
tribution to the advancement of rural cleo
trification," another for the greatest con-
tribution to the advancement O. electric
lighting of commercial and public build
ings.' and third for paper relating to
commercial and merchandising problems of
Industry.
What is of even more interest to the
general public is the fact that the com
pany's rates have been progressively low
cred during period of several. years, and
they are now among the lowest, II not the
very lowest. in the entire United States.
Mr.. Martins selection to head Biz
mingham's relief organization is merely an
other illustration Of the habit folks have of
seeking leaders VINO can do things when
they want to get important things done.
