Schaffner of Parsons, Kans., who had been| kept in a solitary eonfinement box for iseven hours. CENSORSHIP CASE BEFORE U. 5. BODY Fraudulence and Impropriety Charge Against Kansas Station. The delicate question of program censorship bobs up again in a case in which a radio statibn is charged with fraudulently espousing goat-gland operations as a means of physical re- Jjuvenation. Against station KFKB at Milford, Kans,, recently awarded a prize by a radio publication as the “most pop- ular station in the world,” these al- legations of medical “quackery” have been lodged by the American Medi- cal Association. The commission has hailed the station owners to Wash- ington to show cause why it should not revoke the station's broadcasting license for failure to serve the pubiic interest. The station operates with 5,000 watts wer on the 1,050 kilo- cycle channel during daylight only. ‘The commission, under the radio law, is specifically prohibited from censoring programs. But it can take program merit into consideration when passing .on the application of any sta- tion for renewal of its license to operate. That is what it is doing in this case. Doctor Declared Improper. Specifically, the allegptions against the station are that Dr. John R. Brink- ley of Milford, who also has a hospital, unethically and. improperly solicits medical practice and prescribes, by number, medicines for various ailments over this station on three regular schedules each day. He also is charged with using “indecent and obscene language” and with making “false statements” about medicine and surgery. Over the objections of counsel for station KFKB, pamphlets and other literature bearing Dr. Brinkley's signa- ture were introduced in the record. Some of these related largely to gland operations, although station witnesses testified that the doctor had never men- tioned goat gland operations and re- juvenation over the radio. They did testify, however, that about 25 or 30 oats were received each week at the Brinkley Hospital, but disclaimed any knowledge of the use made of them. Dr. Brinkley himself has yet to testify. ‘Through Dr. Hugh H. Young, famous surgeon of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, the commission was told of the objections cf the medical pro- fession to the use of radio in blanket prescribing of medicines, and in solici- tation. Dr. Young declared the methods used by Dr. Brinkley, in his opinion, “are of the greatest possible danger to public health.” To prescribe medicines to patients over the radio without diagnosing a case, he declared, was “dangerous.” Describes Gland Transference, Dr, Young read from a pamphlet pre- pared by Dr. Brinkley, carrying on its cover a legend that the latter was associated 'with the broadcasting sta- tion. On examination he said pamplet “pretends to be a description of a surgical operation” involving the transplanting of gland tissue from other animals to humans to “restore enfeebled constitutions.” “This never has been accomplished in surgery and is ridiculous,” he declared. George Strong, chief counsel for the station, objected vigorously to the in- clusion of such evidence, on the ground that it transgressed the censorship law. The commission, however, heard the testimony, but reserved ruling as to its admissibility. . (Copyright, 1930, by the Consolidated Press.)

EN HOBART had been much t00 preoccupied with the responsi- bilities of his job as Don Jamie's general 'manager to waste any time speculating on his employer's affaires de coeur. When Don Jaime first presented him to Ro- berta, Hobart had instantly decided that she was the sort of female no man could afford to take to wife, being much too skittish for the obligations of the married state in districts where the phrase death us do part” still is taken seriously. He knew Don Jaime Miguel Higuenes, so it never occurred to him that the latter would permit himsel{ to fall in love with his guest, and in the brief con- tacts with Roberta it had seemed to him that Don Jaime would be the last man in the world she might be expected to fall in love with. Robbie’s visit to him and the confl- dential information revealed by that young_eavesdropper had first amused and then interested Hobart. Robbie was furious at Roberta for her apparent failure to appreciate his beloved Jimmy and was for going to her and chiding her about it. Hastily Ken Hobart ve- toed that procedure, but promised Rob- ble to look into the matter and see if something couldn't be done about it. ‘Well, he had done something, nor had he been too particular as to the means employed for its accomplishment. To Mr. Hobart'’s direct way of thinking, this charming guest at Valle Verde had demonstrated that she was not, after il fety girl. He had cabinet woods in walnut, ' TALLMENT. found her weeping in terror and grief | because, forsooth, she had an idea Don Jaime might presently be killed. Many years as a Texas ranger had convinced | Ken Hobart that the prospects of Don Jaime’s demise were far from nebulous, consequently he had to take those tears serlously. There was going to be & fight. No doubt about that. ~And some- | body usually got nurt in such fights. | "'So Ken Hobart had thought quickly. | There wasn't the slightest necessity for | Don Jaime mixing in tais row, where- fore, if he could be persuaded to aban- | donthe field, Ken felt that the defec- tion would not remotely prejudice the | victorious outcome of the sharp bit of Donnybrook that impended. How, then, to induce him to forego the sweets of reprisal? Why, by sending the girl to the scene of the battle—just before it started, Her arguments, consisting of te .s, two kissable lips, two soft arms and a_ declaration of love everlasting, would" be potent, indeed. Mr. Hobart would have bet his saddle on that. Wherefore, he had skillfully woven his web, with the result that Don Jaime and’ Roberta were now enmeshed in it The huge satisfaction felt by Ken Hobart at the success of his decelt and unblushing interference in other peo- ple’s business was shattered now, as he thought of Roberta, garbed in riding breeches and flannel shirt and wearing the conventional wide-brimmed and high-crowned hat of the country.

Tt was incumbent upon him, therefore, to catch up with her, to guard her ap- proach to that old branding corral in the valley, to make her take every ad- vantage of the ground, to scout the territory for her. Also, a disturbing thought had .oc- curred to him. What if Dingle had | decided to make sure of the water for | the sheep by taking possession of the | water hole before Don Jaime could get there? Of course, it was unbelievable that the latter would ride up to the water hole without making a recon- naissance. On the other hand, was| Dan Jaime’s mind completely on the task in hand? Was it not probable that thoughts of a sentimental nature might lull him into indiscretion? Verily, Ken Hobart could take no chances. There was immediate need of haste, and he hastened, and as he galloped along the ackbone of the ridge he was ingly aware that he was not the only one who was hastening. There was Don Jaime, to begin with, hurrying to get to the water hole and consolidate his position. After him came his reinforcements—the devoted Julio. Hurrying to catch Julio that he might lead her to the water hole, Rob- erta was pounding along on her fleet hunter, and after Roberta came Ken Hobart. He sighted the girl three- quarters of a mile or so ahead of him as he topped the ridge. but though he | spurred his horse to its utmost speed he could not gain on her. Presently, two miles ahead of the girl, he caught a flash of white, a recurrent flash, as something moved among the brush and ninon trees. That, he knew, was Julio's pinto mount. “If anything happens to that girl CROSS, NERVOUS MOTHER “My children almost hated me. I was so cross.
