The Value
Of Satisfaction

SSatisfaction is the barometer of business.
It's presence inspires public confidence. It's
absence predicts loss of trade. To give
satisfaction means to sell goods that are
high in quality, serviceable in wear, up-to-
ths-moment in style, at best value prices
and to combine with these quick, efficient,
and obhging store service.
If YOU want to be fully satisfied follow

Alfred Graham who was beaten by
Joseph Francis at Estate HogeAsborg on
Sunday died shortly after P. M. yester
day.
The municipal physician reported to the
police that on Sunday night Graham had
been received into the hospital in a serious
condition having been struck in the face
with stone. Investigation by the police
disclosed that there was a fight between
the men and Judge Jackson fixed bail for
Francis yesterday at $1,000. In the even
ing Graham died.
1t was seldom that such violent crimes
were committed in this island. We regret

Random Notes

Our. Government planned to convert the
Protestant Quay into beautiful public
park The consent of the Municipal Com
mittee washequested and eventually obtain
cd. Elaborate drawings were made by per
sons abroad and it was explained to local
people what . fairy isle the place would
be when completed.
This first plan did not get beyond the
stumping of bush and the building of
two bath houses when new plan was
evolved. A Federal grant was made avail
able for building residence on the islet fer
the Lieutenant Governor. The pilots resi-
dence, historic Danish structure was part
~ demolished and then the renovation was
stsrtad and continued over an unreasonably
long period whsn by some ruling from
Washington, as it is alleged, building opera
tons on the Quay were suspended.
When the first move was made there was
good residence on the Quay, occupied by
the pilot. Today the building is not habit
able. Hitherto the pilot was responsible
for the public property there. Today the is
land is in an abandoned state and even the
large cistern from which vessels in port
were supplied with water is empty and no
one can tell how it happened.
The section of Queen Cross Street which
was recently resurfaced with limestone and
the dust from which was causing much
annoyance to the residents in that section
has been oiled. Mr. Mackenzie and his
men were on the job yesterday.

FARMERS URGED
TO COOPERATE
Roosevelt Makes Appeal to
Refrain From Increas-
ing Acreage.

BY the Associated Press.
The Nations farmers had before
them today . personal appeal from
President Roosevelt to refrain from
increasing their acreages Of CONNER
cial cash crops and to cooperate with
the administration's soil conservation
program.
In making his appeal yesterday, the
President warned that If farmers fail
to take advantage Of the new pro-
gram the consequent excessive pro-
duction Of cash crops might result in
the "wrecking Of their prices and the
mining of the soil" He added:
"Tnis Is an appeal to all farmers
to cooperate for their own and the
national good to help in preventing
excessive production"
Mr.. Roosevelt took note of a crop
report issued this week, indicating
farmers were planning sharp in
creases in acreage Of many crops. He
urged the farmers not to complete
their planting plans until they study
the new program.
Meanwhile, A. A. A. officials said
they expected to uncover details Of
the new program late today. An
nouncement was delayed pending
passage Of the independent Offices ap-
preparation bill, which contained an
allotment Of $4,000, 900 for subsidy
payments for soil conservation.
The bill went to the White House
yesterday and officials said they be-
lieved the President would sign the
measure today.

partment this week said reports from

HOLMES IS VICTOR
OF BITTER FIGHT
Senate Confirms Judge by
Shouted Vote After Five
Hour BiIb0 Attack.
By the Associated Press.

gy the Associated Press.
Despite a bitter fight by Senator
Bubo, Democrat, of Mississippi, the
nomination Of Judge Edwin r. Holmes
TO the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals
was Overwhelmingly confirmed yes
terday by the Senate.
The confirmation was the first major
senatorial defeat for Bilbo, who is
an old political enemy Of Holmes.
Bnbo, in his first Senate speech,
charged that Holmes, now a Federal
district Judge, was incompetent" p"
s'reckless," stupid and vindictive"-
and, in addition, had sent him to
Jail for 10 days in 1922 for contempt
OF court for failing to answer a
subpoena.
For i've hours or more, Bilbo-also
an enemy Of Holmes father-in-law,
the late Senator John Sharp VIII
hams, and of the judges sponsor,
Senator Harrison. Democrat, of Mis-
sissippi-poured out his charges.
Reading copiously from legal vol
umes to support his contention that
Holmes was an unjust judge and had
wrongfully sent thousands of my
people" to prison for violation of the
prohibition act, Bilbo asserted:
"The subcommittee (Which heard
evidence on Holmes case) did not
want me to prove that. They said
] wanted to bring up lot of boot
leggers to say they got unjust SEN
tences."
But Senator's Burke, Democrat, of
Nebraska and Austin, Republican,
Of Vermont, who had sat on the sub
committee when Bilbo had repeated
In detail assertions he made yester-
day, termed the Mississippian's ac-
euSations frivolous"

IN VANDERBILT
BIRTH DATE

NEW YORK, Sept. 10 d.N.S0.
Assertion that the bitter court
battle for custody of little Gloria
Morgan Vanderbilt need never
have occurred if she had definitely
known her own age was made to-
day by Mrs. Gloria Morgan Van
derbilt in the final inStallment of
her memoirs, published by CoSmo-
politan magazine.
Writing Of the custody trial, in
which Mrs. Gertrude Vanderbilt
Whitney attacked her as an unfit
guardian for her daughter, Mrs.
Vanderbilt describes taking the
witness stand at the trial and
being given three documents to
identify. They were passports, is
sued to her in 1914, 1916 and 1918.
She writes:
"They had been SubpOenaed

sued in 1914, 1916 and 1918 and
in them my birth date was given
as 1905, Mrs. Morgan having so
sworn.
Mrs. Vanderbilt, do you know
when you were bOrn?"
Mrs. Morgan has always told
me I was born in 1905.
"Mr. Burkan then handed me

In the final installment of her
memoirs, Mrs. Vanderbilt also at
tackled the conduct Of the trial,
particularly with reference to the
testimony of Maria Caillot, for
mer personal maid to Mrs. Van
derbilt, who told from the wit
ness stand of seeing her former
employer in a compromising sit
uation with Lady Milford Haven.
