JURY RECEIVES BRIBERY USE . Albert Fail Will Know rate Soon; Justice Charges Jury Washington, Oct. 24. —(U.R) —Justice William Hitz gave to the jury today the bribery ease against former interior secretary Albert B. Fall after charging the jurors not to allow their sympathies to sway their verdict. The 68-year-old defendant accompanied by his friend, E. L. Doheny, whose SIOO,OOO is < harged to have bribed Fall to give valuable oil leases in 1922. has been ill throughout the trial. The trial started October 7. in 1 District of Columbia supreme court. ’ Justice Hitz recalled the jurors ten ' minutes after they retired to explain ' a point of law. They retired for the second time at 11:45 a.m., after the ' judge emphasized to them that they were the “sole exclusive judges of the facts.” Justice Hitz took occasion to make a short speech on government and its responsibilities and the responsibilities of citizens and jurors after delivering his formal charge on points of law. Doheny may have been “innocent or guilty" of an intent to corrupt, he said, adding that the jury was not at all concerned with any intent save that of Fall. Referring to the defense plea to send the former secretary back to “the lung-healing sunshine of New Mexico" he informed the jurors “You luve nothing to do with the sunshine of New Mexico.” He pointed out that the jury can recommend clemency if it desires. o SCHOOL NAMES HONOR PUPILS (CONTISit'KD FKOM PA«J: OWF.» Calland.

HOOVER RETURNS TO WASHINGTON << OS TIM Kl> I.HOM I'WE omn an accomplishment celebrated by the | President on this trip—Hoover express-1 | ed the hope that the additional funds| necessary for the gigantic program i might come from savings in naval armaments. “This annual increase" he said of the prospective slU.im)O,(X)o annual increase in rivers and harbors appropriations. "Is equal tq the cost of one half of one battleship If we are so fortunate as to save this annual outlay on naval construction as a result of the forthcoming naval .conference in London, nothing could be a finer or more vivid conversion of sworts into plow-hares." Under the administration program he waterways are intended not to compete with but to complement the "great and efficient” railways of the nation. The policy of private operation of river bargeslines ’should be continued, for “we must look forward to private inifative as not only the cheapest method of operation but as the only way to assured and adequate public service.. Haphazard planning has been the sink of hundreds of millions of public money, tlie President added in a plea for a unified National program. “This administration will insist upon building these waterways as we would build any other transportation system—that is, by extending its ramifications solidly outward from the main trunk lines, substantial traffic or public service cannot be developed upon a patchwork of local improvements and intermediate segments.” President. Hjoover’s first extended tour since he entered the While House last March ended at Louisville last night as -began Toledo and Detroit Muadaii in a driving, cold rain. When he reaches Wasahington this afternoon, the president will have covered more than 1.800 miles since Sunday afternoon. Both the President and the first lady were reported in good health today dqspita their repeated exposure to the elements. o Port Barges Kept Busy One peculiarity of the port of Lon don is the extent to which vessels load from and discharge Into barges London Is a barging port, and it is a staggering fact that on the Thameare 10.000 barges, continually plying to and from the docks and the wharves, warehouses, and factories which line its 170 miles of tidal banks. Credit’s Real Meaning Credit is not so much a trade courtesy extended you as it is an index of your character. W’bcn a merchant is willing to “trust” ”>u. It simply means that lie i- 1 ig to discount your reputation lor honesty and in tegrity.—Grit. ——o Old English Dye Tlie earliest dye plant known in England was the woad plant, which produced a blue color. With the addition of certain chemicals it was turned to a vivid green known as “lincoln” green to the ancients.
