In fact, the went away bevond expec cording to Lieut. Col Nevitt, adjutant of the National Guard Division, and it was Impossible for all of the men who entered the matches to fire. Beveral of the matches will be held today, it was announced. and it is ex pected that they will be completed, particulariy the 300 and 600 3 Matches. The figures on those wh have fired have been slow in comin in. it was sald at headquarters, the statistical officer of the matches, Lieut A. Riley, now having completed this task, in which he was figurativ 1y snowed under by the great numb who appeared to take part in the com- Ppetitions. ¢ . Brigade headquarters officers who wera at the range during the firing of the matches expressed much gratifica- tlon over the showing belng made by the men, and the response to the in vitations to take part, as this work 18 purely voluntary. It indicates to those in close contact with National Guard affairs here that the men are becoming deeply interested in this fea- ture of their military training. Ten of those who appeared at the range and who took part in the side- show, which consisted of a ‘“turkey #hoot,” this match being th a shot gun, instead of the regulation Army rifle, won birds which were awarded last week. The birds were distributed allve, and most of the candidates are gaving them for the Thanksgiving feast. However, the Jinx seems to be following one of the winners, Capt. Just C. Jensen, ordnance officer, who is responsible for the promotion of rifls shooting among the members of the Guard, and who has done much to turn out some of the best shots in the outfit. Last year he won a bird, but in drawing for them he was last and got what was conceded to be the worst one of the lot. However, he accepted it as one of the chances of v life, took it home, carefully it and nurtured it along in prep- aration for the Thanksgiving feast, but it beat the ax by one day. It A natural death. year he was higher up on the ist and selected a better bird.

Further ovidence of the feeling here that the Natlonal Guard of the District of Columbia is not a local in- , but a ward of the Federal lent, is contained in a letter aj. Gen. Anton Stephan, com- manding the local militia, received this eck from Jesse C. Suter, president of the Citizens' Advisory Council, in reply to a letter from the general ing that the council include a recommendation for an armory in t5 report. This fact was evidenced when Mr. Suter wrote: “While mem- bers of the council have mselves as being firmly opinion that an armory should be pro- d, the feeling prevails to a large the Federal Government e this provision, as it is ederal activity.” In an effort to allay this feeling Gen. Stephan repliede past it has been impossible e any appropriation from the Government which would of erecting an " period of 20 or 25 all effort to secure such Federal ed ut the country each State ity provides the National citizen soldlers, been unable to prevail upon Congress to have the Federal t provide facilities for the fonal Guard, which they ed to furnish from Fed- nds for their own States. “The bllls are now pending in Con- Bress which would authorize erection ¢f an armory on a joint basis of the L¢] ates furnishing 40 per cent e appropriation and the District oviding 60 per cent. zens' Advisory certainly indorse ing, and I can only Open Daily Until 9 P. ) el will Balanced Amplifiers Make a Four-Tube Set of Your Radiola TIL Genuine Radio Corporation §w.D.11 TUBES Eveready Columb; various trade asd civic organizations who have indorsed the project and | expressed willingness as taxpayers of the District to bear their fair share of construction costs.” | _Second Lieut.

LOS ANGELES, Calif.,, November 18.—Jack Evans, State Senator, of Monrovia, said yesterday he was pre- paring a bill, to be introduced at the next session of the Legislature, de- signed to prevent radio stations from broadcasting . “opinionated detail statements or assumptions of fact dealing with a pending crimina case. Senator Evans sald the bill was not aimed directly at Aimee Semple Mc- Pherson, evangelist, who has put on the air from time to time “bulletins™ concerning the criminal conspiracy charged against her. The bill would be designed, he said, as a measure to safeguard justice. “I am convinced it is high time that the air was cleaned of its night de- tails of crime being broadcast through the Nation,” Senator Evans sald. “I am not concerned with any cause or any faction. I believe, however, that the bickerings have gone far enough, and that it is time for the State of California to call a halt. “Newspapers have long been bound by certain laws, which they observe.
