SANTA’S PALACE BEHIND MOUNT ISREVEALED Telescope View Shows That 25,000,000 Children Are Made Happy. This is another story from Holly "orry, Times correspondent, with The rimes polar expedition led by Arctic Explorer Capt. F. E. Klelnschmldt. The oarty set out several months ago to ight the frozen lands in an effort to find the home of Santa Claus. This series of stories told how well they succeeded. They have obtained movies of Santa which will be sent back to Indianapolis by airplane and shown to Indianapolis children. BY HOLLY BERRY (Special Correspondent of The Times in Eskimoland.) NORTH POLEVILLE, Eskimoland, Nov. 24.—(8y Radio)—l have looked through the telescope at the top of the mountain behind Santa Claus’ palace! The telescope through which Santa looks every day to see the 25,000,000 children in the world that he brings presents to every Christmas! In spite of the number of thrills I have rectived from this thrilling experience of visiting Santa in his own home after a trip of several months over icy mountains and snowy valleys, it seems every day here brings something more interesting than the day before. I saw the library in which Santa Claus keeps his thousands of big books containing the names of 25,000,000 children with their good and bad actions written beside their names. I saw the toy factory in which he turns out millions of things to please his little friends the world over. I saw the testing room in which all these toys were tested by Santa’s little gnome helpers. I saw many other wonderful sights in this wonderful home of Santa’s as I hkve told you in these stories. A Wonderful Telescope But here was something, it seemed, more wonderful than anything else. At huge telescope through which Santa peeps frequently throughout the day and night at all his little boy and girl friends all over the world! I wondered how he could see through it at night, especially up here near the North Pole, where, you know, the nights are six months long. Santa let me puzzle over the problem for a long time. But he is such a kindly fellow, he couldn’t bear to see me worried long, so he told me the secret. Our telescopes, you know, have lens in them made of glass. This wonderful instrument has a no glass lens in it! What looks like lenses are really pieces of ice and frozen sunbeams blended together in such a way that they supply their own light and make it possible to see the most distant objects on the darkest nights. And Here We Are Santa turned the big telescope toward Indianapolis, and let the members of our party look through it. For Just a moment the sight made me a little homesick, in spite of the fact that we are having such a wonderful time. We could not see near so well as Santa because the frozen sunbeams sparkled back into our eyes and almost entirely ruined the view. They didn’t bother Santa a bit and he looked through it for a long time. Turning it upon Riley Hospital he smiled upon the children there and if they could have seen his expression I am sure it would make them very happy. He certainly seems to love them! Returning to the library to warm ourselves I saw the names of more Indianapolis children. Some of them were: Leo J. Blatz and his sister Margaret, Robert Darmer, Harold Darmer, Margaret Alieen Ratcliff, Nannie Mae Bradford, Electra Bradford, Nora Dell Ratcliff, Rachel Griswell, Mary Wolfe, Phillip Johnson, Benjamin Franklin Grinstead, Mary Rita Mazelin, Phillip Townsend, Mary Ballard, Virginia Love, Evelyn Dorothy Welb, Laverne Balph, Frances Carter, Lydia Johnson, Marie Molly White, Thelma Sadler, Dorothy Jane Boaz, Janann Fowler and her brother, Ted, and Florence and Regina Smith. Tomorrow, I’m going to be able <o tell you of a trip to Easter Egg Valley! Watch for it!

Creation of a Federal farm board of five members, appointed by the President, with power to determine when a surplus of any crop exists. 3.

POLITICS TAKES LEAD ROLE FOR NEXTMNGRESS Issues Pushed to Rear as Both Parties Groom Candidates. BY LEO R. SACK WASHINGTON, Nov. 24. The Congressman or Senator seeking to disregard politics in the coming Congress, will, if he succeeds, deserve glory. Not since the Congress of 1918 when war time peace and good will between parties gave way to political bitterness and sharp dealing, has there been as much politics in the program as is scheduled for the Seventieth Congress. After the war, under the leadership of the late Henry Cabot Lodge, Republicans sought and found an opportunity to get even with Woodiow Wilson. Dfmocrats now are seeking to turn the tables. They ion’t hate Calvin Coolidge like the Republicans hated Wilson, but, like the Republicans then, they see a chance to return to power and no bets will be overlooked. Democrats will make a drive on Coolidge to smoke him out. They will seek to force him to amplify his ten word “I do not choose to run” statement. They will seek to force him to say definitely, yes or no, whether he will accept the Republican nomination if it is offered to him. Their leading musketeers, Senators Pat Harrison of Mississippi and T. H. Caraway of Arkansas, sharptongued and caustic, will be on the firing line. Bringing up the reserves, and with presidential visions himself, will be Senator James A. Reed of Missouri. Unfortunately from Coolidge’e standpoint, the Senate Republicans

will not be so keen for battle. They, too, would like to smoke Mr. Coolidge out. Some of them still think he is fooling. Some of them will even listen to Harrison, Caraway, Reed, et al, with secret pleasure. They will defend the Grand Old Party, but they won’t be so enthuiastic for the titular leader. Presiding over the Senate will be a prospective successor to Coolidge— Vice President Dawes. However, even if Dawes would like to hop into the verbal fray, the rules of the Senate prohibit him. He can say his say when the Senate convenes and when it adjourns—otherwise he must hold his tongue. But on the floor of the Senate will be at least three Senators who have hopes for the Republican nomination—Willis of Ohio, Curtis of Kansas and Watson of Indiana. Senator Hiram Johnson has counted himself out, but Senator Borah still has visions of the promised land. In the House another politician with a White House ambition will preside. Speaker Longworth long has had honorable mention, but thus far the demands for Longworth have not been so loud that he has had to neglect any of his duties as Speaker. Longworth’s friends hope that before June, conditions will so adjust themselves that Republican conservatives will recall his services during the past twenty years. Politics will be out in front in both House and Senate from the ringing of the gong. The clash in the Senate will be between Sena-tors-elect Frank L. Smith of Illinois and William S. Vare of Pennsylvania, on one hand, and those who would refuse them the right to take the oath until the question of skullduggery in their elections is settled.
