NEVADA PIQUED AT INTEREST IN ITS BROAD LAWS State Tells Reformers To Keep “Hands Oft" and Not Meddle By Earl H. Leif H’nitod Press Staff Correspondent! I Reno, Nev., April 16 tl’P) —Ne ■ vada was amazed, amused and! slightly piqued at the deluge of publicity anil comment throiißho:-’ the i tition that has been directed at this “last frontier state of the I Union’' since enaement of the wide-1 open gambling and six-weeks di-, • vorce laws. Nevada has served notice on the test of ths country through news-1 paper editorials and speeches and I letters of private citizens and pub- j lie oficials that it wants to work j out its own destiny that it intends | to think and act independently pre- I serve its own sovereign state’s rights and wants other states to ■ “mind their own business.” The people of this state, at least ! that articulate portion of them, declare they have nothing to apolr- ! gize for and they only ask that the i professional reformers leave Ne- i vada alone. Gambling has always existed in this state and the people were in-j credibly amazed when the hordes I of pnotographers news writers and | feature writers arrived in Reno when the gambling bill was signed by the governor to write up the fact that "Nevada has gone Old Wes'.”l Nevadans are intensly proud o' their surte and resent any slur upon it. But adverse comments by other states and by reformers because of gambling only has brought the! charge that conditions are much j worse in other states except here they are open honest and regulated “About 154 years ago a bunch o’ patriotic fellows got together ard planned a country to have personal ■ freedom” says a typical editorial in he Winnemucca Star. “One of

April Hi —(U.RI— Fiv% ! years as head of the American Farm Bureau Federation have. taught Sam H. Thompson, recent-' ly appointed to the federal farm' board, that cooperative marketing! is the salvation of the farmer.l Thompson said in a radio address today. He said he had gathered figures I which show that, through organ- 1 ized effort, “agriculture might add four or five billion dollars to its ' annual income” swelling the income of the individual farm family $750 a year. Thompson said the fact that millions of men are unemployed i and hungry while farmers’ grainI Irins are bursting with stores of, unsaleable wheat constitutes "a strange commentary" on current i marketing methods. The extensive inter-relation between the prosperity of agriculture and that of industry in general was pointed to by the newl farm board member as indicative I of the need for corrective meas-1 ures. such as cooperative market-' . ing. on a large scale. o s COAL MINERS PROTEST LEWIS (CONTINUED FROM I’AGJS ?NE) Keeney said that the 104,000 coal minuers in West Virginia, if they worked eght hours a day, could produce the nation's present bituminous consumption.

FRANCE MAY ADD NEW DECORATION I V Paris, April 16 • —(UPI— Franc** , mav include another national decor[atlon among those famous orders ior which many Frenchmen and I foreigners strive. According l to u bill just proposed [in Parliament, the Order of Colonjial Merit, or-in French "Merlte Coljonial” may be created. The bill argues that if France I? |:i country of more than one him‘lred million inhabitants, subjects lor proteges. 60,18)0,000 of them live -mw’ly Africa. Asia America and I Oceania. How tan they be recoin- | pen. ed for theier meritorious conI duct ami for their unselfish and pioneering efforts in behalf of French preitige abroad? It is observed foreover that the only colonial orders that exist are those for military service. The bills says "Let ue now have some recognition for endeavors that are not warlike hut which reward men for their labors in the economic and cultural paths. The bill proposes that both natives and foreigners to the colonies may be considered in the new order which will be composed of Knights Officers and Commanders. For the first year not more than pm thousand Knights will be allowled no more than 200 oficers and no more than 50 commanders. For subsequent years the maximum of 600 Knights Crosses will be allowed. Nine-tenths of the bestowals of ,decorations in the Colonial Merit j nmst be to those who live and work I in the Colonies, the other tenth being for those who have merited j colonial recognition and reside fn I France or abroad. ROYAL fexiLES ARE IN FRANCE (CONTINUED FROM PARE ONE) of the kindness shown us every- , where along the road.” The queen, as well as the Duke of Alba, expressed surprise that the king had said at Marseilles that be planned to remain in F-ance un til after June, indicating that they originally had planned to continue immediately to England, where the queen’s mother. Princess Beatrice, lives at Kensington Palace. The queen’s arms were filled with flowers brought by her admirers. “Every one is so friendly that it eases our position." she said. The Prince cf Asturias, whose chronic illness made the hurried trip from Madrid more trying, said •he was tired. “It was a long and trying trio, but we intend to rest now,” he said. Despite the insistence of the royal family that “there will be no crying.” it was evident that the queen had wept frequently on the long railroad journey. phe was wearing a blue frock, very smartly cut, as she walked from the train with Police Chief Jean Chiappe. She*stopped almost every step to receive the sympathy of aristocratic friends who are exiles like herself. Her hand was kissed a dozen times and many I women bowed and wept as she passed. But the appearance of the queen before the crowd at the station caused a burst of enthusiasm. Shouts of “Via la Reina!’’ were raised as she made her way through the station, ■ followed by the Prince of the Asturias and the two pricesses. The queen carried a bouquet of yellow jonquils'. There were 200 French poliice in the station, but there was not the slightest outward incident. When the train arrived the railroad men and engine crew climbed down to a place beside the track and cheered the royal family. Outside the station the queen’s automobile was delayed fer ten minutes due to the great crowd and the confusion there. The car was surrounded by dignitaries from the Spanish embassy in silk hats, richly dressed women and many persons Jrom the Spanish colony who threw flowers to the queen as she departed for the hotel. The Prince of the Asturias, who remarked that he was “so fatigued," was carried on a stretcher to the automobiles waiting for the party at the station. He was embraced by his mother as he was lifted into a special car. The queen and other members of the party then entered their cars and drove away. Don Gonzalo, who is 14 and the youngest son of the queen, was excited. Get Un Nights?

HOOVER SPEECH RECORD IS LOW • Has Made 10 Talks In Two Years; Coolidge Record Higher Washington, April 16. —(U.R) — President Hoover's record for •speech making has fallen far be- | low that of his predecessor, whose loquacity or lack of It was fre- ■ quently compared with that of the : sphinx, it was disclosed today at j the White House! A • ..J.hig- to t.: cot ds of th' executive office, Mr. Hoover has ' made just 40 speeches since his inauguration two years ago last March 4. President Coolidge de- , livered 52 addresses in a shorter riod, the last two years of his i administration. While Mr. Coolidge was facei tiously known throughout the ' country as "Silent Cal," the record I indicates he delivered more ! speeches during his six years of 1 office than any other president has made in eight years. Mr. ' Hoover is listed second to Mr. | Coolidge upon the record ho has ; made thus far. Development of radio is given a.s the reason for the recent increase in presidential addresses. The first ten presidents together did not make as many as the 92 addresses delivered by Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Hoover in the past I eight years. With the hookups now offered broadcasting companies. a president may" sit in his study in the White House and address a ' gathering in San Francisco with the entire country listening in. The workability of this arrange- | ment was demonstrated Monday

mid Tuesdny when Mr. Hoover ! reached millions of persons with ; three addresses under different • nuspices, going no further than a I city block from the executive mansion. v Mr. Hoover favors the radio, idnioat to the exclusion of speaking , trips. He has taken but two such journeys outside Washington since he has been president, one the first year to Cincinnati. Detroit, and IxmlsvlUe, and another the second year, to Cleveland. Boston! ’ ami Kings Mountain. S. C. One more is in contemplation ' for this year. He will speak June 15. 16 and 17 at Indianapolis, j ’ Marion. Ohio and Springfield. 111.
