Dr. A.| H. Jahn got there twenty-five min- | utes later, found the baby apparent- ly dead . Refusing to give up, the doctor| began breathing into the baby’ mouth. For a half hour, he said, there was no sign of consciousness. Another forty-five minutes brought a weak sigh, then later another, antil the baby began breathing reg- ularly. Weak for days, the baby began gaining strength and now, three weeks old, he is healthy and nor- mal, Dr. Jahn said. - Today's News Toas ~—Fmpire. .

HEAD PROTESTS Senate Defers Action on House Bill 16 Unfil - | Hansen Heard 1 At the request of Eiler Hansen, Superintendent of the Pioneers’ Home, the Senate has deferred ac- tion on House Bill No. 16, Rep. James Davis' measure requiring that bids be called on all Terri- torial purchases amounting to more than $50. In a letter to the Senate, Hansen asked that he be heard on the bill before action is taken on it Hansen is known to be strenuously opposed to the bill, having written to Davis stating that passage of such a measure would hamper him considerably in making purchases of food and supplies for the Home and would increase the cost of these items. By unanimous consent, the Sen- ate continued the bill in second reading.
