ILLUSTRATED NEWS SERVICE FOR NOME
 AND THIS SECTION OF ALASKA

Beginning today illustrated news appears in the columns of the Daily Nugget in the form of pictures of all important events which take place through out the world through the renowned service of the As sociaed Press
 New picture mats mailed to the Nugget from San Francisco, the distributing point for this service the Pacific Coast and will arrive here via airmail from on. Upon their arrival here, the mats are immediately cast into cuts and plates, and filed to be used in connection with stories and events they take place, and also special illustrated feature of the daily news
 Without airma it would be worthless to arrange for the service but speedy delivery of mats by plane mak this added attraction possible to the readers of the Nugget If regular U. s. Air Mail could be arranged between Juneau and Fairbanks, thence into Nome, we would be able to get the latest pictures of the news of the world in from four to five days from the States and regular mail service would likewise be speeded up
 With the inauguration of this picture service readers of the Nugget will be able to keep up with the events of the world as they take place andwe offer this feature to the public beginning today-We hope you like it.

It is said that snipers are gett- ing in their work in the worlds latest disturbance. A sniper is a good shot who believes in indi vidual rather than mass effort. The commanding officer of a squad of sharp-shooters once was asked what he would do if at- tackled by a force three times the size of his: to which he respond ed that each of his men would shoot three times. Snipers ever have been the most effective sou. rec of protection for the oppress- ed minority in seasons of warfare
 Perhaps the stronger powers have overlooked the service that can be rendered by the crack shot

Current Comments Written From
 Washington
Special Correspondence)

A state governor has gone on record as favoring a repeal of the income tax, never a popular measure for the reason that it comes in a lump sum and is read fly recognized. Perhaps it is less dangerous than a multitude of penny taxes, collected under cov- CT and capable of supporting un- noticed abuses. After all the best measure of mans ability to pay is what he earns. The time may come when it will be regarded unjust to fine a person for owning the land that yields him a sparse living or for having a few hundred dollars in savings laid up against rainy day. The income tax belongs to a despised family but he may not be the black sheep.

The American Federation of Labor, in session at Atlantic City, announces in language not to be misunderstood, that it has no use for Communism, European dicta- tors or participation in a so- call ed World War.

A well known publicist states that there is and can be no such thing as government control of newspapers. which is true n part only. In kingdom the sovereign ty resides in the king. In re- public. it resides in the people, The newspapers give the people what they want. That admitted, there is a government control of the press, and that control will continue until the form of our government is changed. If news papers do not come up to the standard, the directing power, namely the readers, have not ex- ercised wisely the power that is vested in them.

The Duke and Duchess of Kent are family people now, a son hav- ing been born to them recently. The matter might be passed over without remark if it were not for the circumstance that the infant stands seventh in line for the throne of England. Citizens of the United States generally re- gard the cut and dried system of passing a job along according to rule of succession as a ridicul- ous arrangement good enough for Europe but having no place here. It might be well to recall that about forty years ago Congress provided an order of succession to the presidency in the event that the Chief Executive, for req sons specified. were unable to serve. If the name of the Kent child were on the American list, his chances would not be regard ed as particularly good. Getting down to a concrete statement, he would have to wait until MT. Garner the Secretaries of State, Treasury and War, the Attorney General and the Postmaster Gen. eral were out of the way. It is likely that the Secretary of the Navy has not wasted any time in grooming himself for the Presi- dency. Little Johnny Kent may profit by his example and com pose himself for the quiet life of an English gentleman.

APPEAL SAVES
D0HERTY ON
LAW SUITS

zone little word" saved Henry
l.. Doherty, cities Service utilities
magnate, the trouble of answering
a number of suits which have been
on file against him in United
States District Court for more
than 18 months, according to
ruling of the United States Court
of Appeals today.
Doherty was served with sum-
mons in the suits last December
IA by Gerald w. Sickler, a George
Washington University law stu
dnet, under amusing clrcum-
stances. The utility tycoon was
guest at the annual Gridiron
Club dinner when the young man
approached and handed him the
stack of subpoenas, notifying him
of the filing of the suits and OF
his duty to answer "or else"
Status Questioned
His attorneys, investigating the
record, found that Sickler was not
a deputy marshal, but had been
appointed a court eliSor only a
few days previously. They began
digging into the law dictionaries
and the writings of Blackstone,
greatest exponent of the common
law, and found that an elisor is
a person appointed by the court
to perform certain duties, includ-
ing the return of a jury, when the
sheriff or coroner is disqualified.
They filed a motion to quaSh
the service, pointing out that
the common law cannot be in
voked when the statutes provide
adequate remedies. The statutes
of the District make special pro
visions for the appointment of
process servers, when the regu-
larly appointed deputy marshals
are unable to effect service they
pointed out, and naturally the
common law with it's "elisorS'
have no place in the present
suits.
Appeal Noted
They appealed to the United
States Court of Appeals after
their contention was rejected in
the lower court. The appellate
court today held that the use
of the word "elisor" in the or
der of appointment invalidated
service of the process. The same
person might as easily have ef-
fected the service as a special
deputy marshal under statutory
provisions and the service would
have been valid if he had not
been called an "eliSor" tn e
higher court held.
Records in the suits revealed
that the actions we're filed April
Is, 1885 and three unsuccessful
attempts were made to serve
Doherty before Sickler handed
him the stack of documents eight
months later.

SUGGESTS NEW
SPOT FOR TREE

SLIGO PARK HILLS, Md,
Nov. 16.-The planting of a COM
munity Christmas tree in the tr1-
angle at Sligo and Saratoga Aves.,
the entrance to Sligo Park Hills,
has been protested by the Mary
land State Roads Commission.
Despite the State Roads Com.
missions stand on the matter,
taken because the members feared
the tree would obscure the vision
Of motorists, Delar Kimble, a
member of the Garden Club Of
the community, has appealed to
the Board of County Commission
ers to permit the planting of the
tree at some other spot.
AS a second choice, Mr.. Kimble
said. the residents would like to
start the perpetual Christmas tree
in the triangle at Park Valley
and Hill Top road. A decision on
the latter request, which lies with.
in the jurisdiction of the Mont
gomery County Board members,
will be rendered within a short

OIL HEIRESS'
MATE FALLS
TO DEATH

NEW YORK, Nov. 16 G.N.S)
An accidental fall from a window
Of a fourteenth floor hotel suite
yesterday caused the death Of
David Brooks, 26, who was mar.
ried only four months ago to Ade-
laide Moffett, daughter Of James
A. Moffett, Standard Oil million.
aire and former Federal housing
administrator.
Mrs. Brooks was in the apart
ment at the time that her hus-
band, while opening window,
lost his balance and fell to the
street.
Wife Hysterical
Mrs. Brooks telephoned the man
agement, who notified police. The
death was declared accidental.
The bottom of the window was
only % inches from the floor, and
the motion of raising the window
probably catapulted Brooks
through the opening.
Mrs. Brooks was hysterical when
detectives arrived. After she had
regained control of her emotions,
she informed questioners she and
her husband had gone out for din
ner and later had gone dancing.
Among those at the party were
Howard Hughes, millionaire
sportsman; Sherman FalrchlId
and Vivian Dixon.
The Brookses returned to the
apartment at 2:55 a. m, she said,
and found the steam had been left
on and the windows closed. While
she remained in the living room
to remove her wraps, her husband
Strode into the bedroom, saying
"It's awfully stuffy here. I'm
going to open window"
Hears His Cry
A moment later she heard a cry
of alarm from her husband. She
rushed into the bedroom, looked
out the window and saw his body
far below.
Mrs. Brooks father hurried to
the apartment as soon as police
telephoned him of the tragedy,
and took his daughter to his home
Mr. Brooks was the younger son
of Reginald Brooks, Of New York
and Southampton, and Of Mrs,
Robert H. Brand, one of the five
Langhorne sisters of Virginia. He
was a nephew of Lady AStor and
of Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson.
Autopsy Waived
Assistant Medical Examiner
Weinstein ruled no autopsy was
necessary. The body was then
claimed by a brother, Reginald
Brooks, and was taken to st. Bar
tholomeW's Church. Funeral serV'
ices will be held there today.
Miss Moffett and Brooks were
married quietly last July 3 by
City Clerk Cruise in the Municipal
Building. The wedding was a sur
prise to society, for no formal an.
nouncement of the engagement
had been made. Mrs. Brooks
broke her engagement last sum-
mer to Henry Gibbins, son of
Brigadier General Harry Gibbins,
of Washington, D. G..
