A detailed scheme for thus connecting the highway network of France and French Switzerland with the Italian automobile trade has been submitted to the French and Italian governments and it is understood here both have approved of it in principle. The tunnel would run from Cham- onix to Courmayeur. Though the task sounds formidable, it would be easier than any of the big jobs already done in the Alps. It would be only eight miles shortest of Alpine tunnels. Geological studies have proved favorable and financial ones show the tunnel would pay for itself with a reasonable tolL The tunnel would shorten considerably the Paris-Rome highway, especially for winter and place Geneva on it.

It would bring Geneva easily within two hours of Italy by moderate driving. Generally it would greatly motor touring in the Alps, where it is already highly developed. Mrs. J. R.

Doherty NewsYorkv This amount compares with $55,000,000 for 1931 and $170,000,000 in 1930.

Net earnings for last year were shown at 580,951,583. For: 1930 net earnings amounted to $84,862,958. The company has no major uncompleted projects under way now, but the 1933 budget calls for expenditure of 512,000,000 on construction and acquisitions, With reference to availability of income for interest on Cities Service Company debentures, the report points out that the. income of the company itself is not limited to receipts of earnings and dividends from common stocks of its subsidiaries because the company holds more than enough interest-bearing' securities of its, subsidiaries- to, pay all outstanding indebtedness in the hands of the public.

HOPE, ARKANSAS, FRIDAY, APRIL 28,1933 4lf Here and There tPfUtnfinl tl UTiniilikiivM By Alex, Waehburn- Literary Contest of District 10 Under Way in Magnolia Hope Delegation Leaves for Columbia Co. Friday Morning TO BE 3 PROGRAMS A STATE ruling published today that there will be no passes issued for toll bridges, will meet with general approval front the public. Even the employes of the State Department will have to pay toll at the very bridges checking lip on. But they will turn in their payments on expense-accounts, and be reimbursed that Way. You readily get the idea.

When passes are Issued by a public-owned itllity, the pass privilege is bound to be abused, costing the taxpayers thousands of dolars, But no official is going to reimburse you in actual cash unless the law directs him to. XXX In this connection I would like to make a friendly observation on the Hope Water Light Plant. It is generally understood tfiat the municipal plant has had to "carry" nany families during the depression. The plant struggles along under this as best it can. After all, the people own the plant, and can do what want with certain good suslness practices should be enforced, and the plant management should be given authority to sec that they are enforced.

I make this suggestion, on the eve of the city's annual audit: That the plant be instructed to collect its monthly bills from everyone, but that persons definitely known to be unable to pay at this time be permitted to petition the water and light committee of the city council, which in worthy cases would issue credit memorandums that would take up the bills. XXX This would do two things: would give the city a close check on all "free" service. would give the municipal plant credit for its real gross volume, and charge the "free" service to charitable expense, where it should be charged. The burden of determining who is entitled to charity service now rests on the plant management. That's a handicap.

The burden should rest on the city council. XXX I make this suggestion because it occurs to me that the Hope plant is not showing the real gross volume of Its gross volume has a very Important bearing on the plant's 12 to 20 Schools Will Enter Friday-Saturday Meeting delegation of Hope High School students left here Friday morning for Magnolia where the District 10 literary meet will be held Friday and Saturday.

CHASE KIDNA cf Delinquency Fees Announced for '33 Publication of Land List to Be Determined by Supreme Court LITTLE The Arkansas Corporation Commission Thursday sent letters to county clerks and collectors, setting up the amounts to be taxed against delinquent lands as costs incident to the sale of such lands. The total cost on each tract when the land is sold to an individual at the tax sale, if the land is not advertised, will be: To clerk for attending sale and making record of sale, 10 cents. To clerk for listing land sold in name of purchaser, 10 cents. To collector for each tract sold, 10 cents. To ollector for issuing certificate of purchase, 25 cents.

Total, 55 cents. When the land is bid off in the name of state, the total cost will be 20 cents, the fee to the clerk for )isting land in the name of the pur- Chaser and the fee to the collector for issueing certifacte of purchase not being payable when the land goes to the state. If the Supreme Court holds suits now pending that sections of Act 250 of 933, abolishing publication of delinquent tax lists, are invalid, there will be an additional cost on each trace of 10 cents to the clerk for making a copy of the delinquent list for the printer and printer's costs of 25 cents on each tract the list is published in papers having less than 5,000 circulation. auditing firm, the auditors "apparently never have been instructed to report on the amount of charity service. They report on the amount of free water and electricity furnished to the city government and other institutions, amounting to around $19,000 or $20,000 a year, as I recall.

The same kind of a report should be filed on individual charity service- increasing by that amount the gross for which the plant management should be given credit. Wasson Has Plan to Stop Robberies Commissioner Would Have Banks Keep Cash at Reserve Centers LITTLE A plan he used for some time in his bank at Gentry to discourage attempts to rob the bank has been put into effect on a state-wide basis by State Bank Commissioner Marion Wasson. Because of the series of bank robberies in the state in recent months, which have caused bank robbery insurance rates to go up, the bank commissioner has instructed all state banks to discontinue the practice of keeping surplus cash in their vaults. He notified them they'should keep only enough cash on hand to make change, and in event of a demand for a large amount of cash, require sufficient notice for the bank to get a shipment of currency from the nearest reserve center. 'Banks are instructed to give notice to their customers through newspapers or by mail that these instructions are (Continued on page three) FLAPPER FANNY SAYS: QHtA National Guard Is Called as lowans Mob Circuit Judge Abused Jurist Refuses to Prosecute Those Who Manhandled Him FORECLOSURE SUIT Judge Had Refused to Promise No Action on 5 Insurance Mortgages LE MARS, threatened lynching of Judge Iharles 0.

Bradley, 60, who was dragged from his courtroom Thursday by farmers jecause he refused to promise inaction on foreclosures, Friday brought troops to this area. A A mob of 100 men looped a rope around the judge's neck Thursday, yanked it until he fell semi-conscious, smeared him with grease from the axle of. a truck in Which they abducted him from the courthouse, tore off iis pants and left him in the middle of the road. The judge, recovering Friday, said ic would not move for the prosecution of his tormentors. Guard Called Out MOINES, Herring Friday mustered battalion of the National Guard for service at Le Mars, scene of disturbance Thursday in which a district judge was beaten and threatened with hanging.

How It Happened LE MARS, story of the abduction was Mold by a news correspondent who the farmers and who. remained with Judge, Bwullsy thjfttUgHibut the. entire affair. Shortly after 4 p. the farmers entered the judge's courtroom to discuss with him hearings' to determine constitutionality of two new laws relating to mortgage foreclosures.

The judge requested them to take off their hats and to stop smoking. "This is my court," he said. The farmers rose in reply to his demands, dragged him off the bench, slapped him and shook him, and carried him bodily out of the courtroom, the lobby of the courthouse, and onto the lawn. There they demanded that he 'swear" not to sign any more foreclosure actions. Judge Bradley, about iO, defied the crowd and was roughly landled some more.

Judge Refuses When he i persisted in refusing to ive the oath, the farmers, most of masked, loaded the blindfolded udge into a truck, climbed in behind him and carried him away. At a crossroads about a mile southeast of Le Mars, they put a rope around his neck, the witness said, and repeated their demands. The judge still refused and one of the farmers tugged on inch rope. Judge Bradley fell, only partly conscious but still refusing to comply with the demands, the witness said. The farmers dragged the judge to his feet, carried him to the side of the road and threw the loose end of the rope over a sign.

"Make him get down on his knees pray," one of the farmers shouted. The judge was pushed to his knees and declared: I will do the fair thing to all men to the best of my knowledge." Insurance companies involved in the suits which Judge Bradley was to hear include the Metropolitan Life, John Hancock Life, Equitable of New York, Mutual Benefit Life, and the Fraklin Life. Other mortgage holders involved are the Collins Mortgage Company, Lincoln Joint Stock Land bank, Federal Land bank, Fremont Joint Stock Land bank, Des Moines Joint Stock Land bank and the First Trust Joint Stock Land bank. The mortgage holders question con- jtitutionality of the law suspending foreclosure proceeding and the law extending the redemption period on foreclosed property until March 1,1935. O.S.

He said: "In my 19 years as Evangelist travel, ing over many states I have made, this observation: There.are three classes of Christians. They are quitters spurters, and stickers.

Bonus Payment by Inflation Fund Is Beaten in Senate Refuse 60 to 28 to Recommend It to President Roosevelt GOLD SECTION HIT farah Denounces Carter Glass Is Bitterly Critical WASHINGTON (IP) The senate late Friday afternoon rejected an amendment the inflation bill to give President Roosevelt optional power the veterans' jonus with new money if he desired to do so. The vote was 60 to 28.

A warning that the' president was opposed to cash payment of the bonus was tacked up in the senate by Senator Robinson, Democratic leader, just before the vote. Robinson said the president was unqualifiedly against the bonus amend, ment as it would defeat the purpose of the bill, and "the purpose he has in mind" is to Use the new credit in meeting maturing government obligations.

Rainey and Byrns hoped to ascer tain the president's attitude.

Bonus Delays Action The admin stration's controlled inflation projec Became ensnarled in a senate disput over the soldiers' bonus Thursday night after the chamber had voted give President Roosevelt power to de valuate the dollar. So threatening was the pro-bonu sentiment that Democratic leader abandoned plans for a vote Thursday night on that issue, and on the infla- program as a whole, and adjourned to mke a survey of how the ballots will be cast. "Support was attracted to the bonus project, offered as an amendment to the inflation under which payment of the bonus would be made discretionary with the president rather than mandatory. Approval of the devaluation clause, under which Mr. Roosevelt would be authorized to reduce the.dollar's gold content by as much as 50 per ent, climaxed a long and bitter fight, in which regular Republicans' led by Senator Reed, Republian, Pennsylvania, sought to eliminate the section.

Glass Opposes Bill Just before the vote. Senator Glass of Virginia, a former Democratic Secretary of the Treasury, arose to take issue with the inflation legislation, expressing regret that he thus should oppose the president, but saying: I'm simply maintaining the attitude of my earnest convictions on public questions, which is more Important to me than party or potentate." Glass, who with another former Treasury seretary, Senator McAdoo, Democrat, California, voted for Reed's motion to elminate the gold dollar devaluation section, late in the day, lashed out at the inflation plan. We are flying right in the face of human experience." he asserted. "This is unbridled expansion. The rein is so loose the steed will never stop until it goes over the precip'ice and kills the rider.

'I regret to disagree with my colleagues and the occupant of the White House whom I love and respect and who has exhibited unparalled courage in trying to bring the government within its budgetary requirements, but whether it be commonplace or sensational I'm one Democrat who is going to vote against this bill if every one of the other 95 senators votes for it. I may have regrets but I shall never make apoligies for my action." For Sopid Currency Glass, by way of preface, informed the senate he had intended at first to make a complete exposition of his stand, but decided later to make it brief. After asserting he had written with especially. religious. Foliticis, he had eschewed since "Ma" Ferguson was elected in Texas.

And he talked, therefore, on dogs. Speaking of politics, he was reminded of a story about a Texas clectioner who found a'farm: boy sitting on a fence at a deserted -house. The politician, finding the family were at work in the field, asked, the boy how they stood on poltics. Said the boy: "We're all mixed up. Ma's a Republican.

Pa's a Democrat. The cow's dry. The baby's I'm on the fence." A. A. Albritton, of the Bruner-Ivory Handle company, past secretary of the Heber Springs Rotary club, attended Friday's meeting.
