CHEVROLET SALES
NEARLY DOUBLES
PREVIOUS RECORD

Chevrolet retail sales during the
first 20 days of November totalled
60,707 units, nearly double the prev
ious high record for that period, it
was announced at the offices of the
Chevrolet Motor Co., Detroit.
Only once in Chevrolet history, in
1926, has the sales period for the
whole month of November exceeded
that for the first 20 days Of the pres
ent month, the records show. Since
the November, 1926, figure was only
about 5000 higher, the current No
vember will be, by wide margin, the
greatest in the history of the COM
pany.
The new 2O-day record, following
the introduction of new models Nov.
2, is nearly three times as great as the
best pervious post-announcement 20
days since January, 1928. With the
exception of April, this year, there
has not been a first 20-day period in
any month to equal it since April,
1880. -
To assure an adequate supply of
cars to meet the record demand, pro-
duction has bt p stepped up beyond
the 100000 un originally projected
for November. A new high mark for
single days production Of 1886
models was reached Nov. %, officials
reported, when more than 5000 units
rolled off the assembly lines.

the courtroom today and pointed
out Bruno Richard Hauptmann as
the man he saw with a ladder"
near the scene of the kidnapping
on March l.
Hauptmann, on trial here in the
kidnapping and murder of Charles
A. Lindbergh, Jr., soberfaced and
unfiinching, shook his head as the
gnarled fingers of the witness
touched his knee.
The Identification of Hocmuth
was dramatic surprise move by
the prosecution, designed to COM
plete the linking of Hauptmann to
the scene of the crime. The pris-
oner had previously denied he had
been in New Jersey within several
months of that date.
The aged witness was called af-
ter technical testimony by police
experts who testified that they had
failed to find any fingerprints in
the nursery.
Edward ]. Reilly, defense coun-
sell, was caustic in his criticism
of their failure to find even the
fingerprints Of members of the
Lindbergh household.
Hocmuth testified that he was
standing on a corner near a rela-
tive's house and that he had seen
an automobile drive by with
man in it who "looked like he had
seen a ghost"

that man in the courtroom"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. (UP.
Dispute over the right of Senator
Bronson Cutting, R., N. M, to his
senate seat is leading Progressives
of both parties toward a break
with President Roosevelt.
Observers attribute to him the
plan to contest Cuttings election.
Coincident with indications the
Cutting election controversy will
be a congressional top liner this
session, the senate offered new
evidence of tendency to bolt
party lines generally. Republicans
were recorded as voting with Dem.
ocrats on the purely party issue OF
senate organization.
Personal and indirect appeals to
President Roosevelt have failed so
far to stop the drive to supplant
Cutting with Dennis Chavez.

senate floor privileges on the day
congress convened to lobby against
the wealthy New Mexico liberal.

FARMS SHOWS
FALLING OFF

A slight decrease in the amount
of farm livestock owned by farm
ers in Henderson county in 1884
as compared to 1888 is revealed
by the tax abstract on file at the
county courthouse.
Figures from these tax abstracts
for the years 1881 including 1884
are available and reveal that the
amount of livestock owned in the
county last year was higher than
for the year 1881, with few ex-
ceptions.
The figures are interesting in
that they show the general trend
of livestock ownership in the
counsy, although it is admitted
that figures are probably less than
the actual amount of livestock in
the county at any time. Figures
repr .sent livestock listed for taxes
as of the first of April of each
year. :. :,
A composite table of livestock
for the years 1881 through 1884
is as follows:
