Then 1 looked at it, called police, and checked the serial number.’’ Seattle is about 100 miles fiorn the nearest Canadian border point. Much of the country in between is heavily wooded, and if Hickman succeeded in leaving the city he would have a reasonable chance to make his way to the border unmolested it was believed. —. -o — A. A. Kist Buys Third Newspaper At Portland A. A. Kist, newspaper publisher of Portland, and son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Al Burdg, of this city, has purchased the Commercial-Review, evening paper of Portland. Mr. Kist now owns and publishes three newspapers in Portland. His papers are the Republican, the Sun and the Commercial Review. The paper was purchased from Franklin Hilderbrand, the price reported being $25,000. Mr Kist will continue to publish all three papers. o —— One Bandit Killed Tacoma, Wash., Dec. 22. —(INS)— One bandit was killed and his companion apparently fatally wounded today in an attempt to hold up the | Hotel Winthrop. Tacoma’s leading' hotel. Police, acting upon a mysterious ; underworld tip that the hotel was to be held up, lay in wait all night, hidden in the lobby, and met the two desperadoes with a fusillade of bullets. — o Coolidge Signs Deficiency Bill Washington, Dec. 22—(UP)—President Coolidge tcday signed the deficiency bill carrying emeigency appro-, priation of $203,000,000 for vftri us government activities. o MAY REVOKE RIGHTS OF BROADCASTERS Washington, Dec. 21—(UP)—Radio ail ways over the United States have■ become so congested that it has been proposed to revoke the broadcasting licenses of almost half the 685 stations 1 now- operating here. Sam Packard, a member of the Federal Radio Commission, made the sug- ’ gestion which may be acted upon early i in 1928. His tentative proposal was to revoke the licenses of 300 stations leaving 385 breadcasters to provide. programs in the United States. j, The commission has cleared 25'. channels to afford many stations op- I poitunltles to broadcast without hav- I ing their programs marred by het- I erodyne interference. Packard estimated that with 50 of the 90 available channels cleared there would be similar facilities for between 200 and 250 stations to broadcast unmenaced by preventable interference. "Public interest, convenience or the necessity clause of the radio law of 1927" will be the standards by which stations will be judged. The radio act °f 1927 never have been tested legally and the proposal to revoke licenses, if carried out, probably would result in an immediate test case being carried to the Supreme C~urt, thereby determining the Federal right to regulate broadcasting under the Present law. , o Jail A Great Shock To French Radical Paris —(UP)—Marcel Vachin, chief of the French communists does not like prison life. When he was released after several months in the Santa jail lie told hi: colleagues in the Chamber of Deputies that if he ever became head of a communist government nobody will be sent to jail. ?“It’s an awful shock,’’ he said “hen the jailer locks the door of the cell. I thought to myself ‘Well, old man, they’ve got you this time sure.’ The jailers are n obetter off than the prisoners. They see only a little spot of the sky and the sun scarcely ever. What did I do in jail? I read Balzac. That’s a mental beefsteak." , *
