Stations out west did not come in with much clarity. Most of those within 600 miles were heard with good volume. PR Burr McIntosh, the cheerful phil- osopher, although not on the pro- gram, presented an interesting bit from WDWEF, Providence, in the course of that station’s period of broadcast. His talk was interesting and he told of his experiences as an { actor and war correspondent. PR Somebody up on 510 meters was | singing “All Alone.” That boy was | mistaken. He had plenty of etatic | and code for company. ‘ Sieiie WSB, at Atlantay Georgia, pre-| | sented a program by a group of old | | time fiddlers. This is the first time we have succeeded in bringing that | station into our set in many moons |and an eclipse. The program was | 5004, and the statlon was not both- | | ered by fading. They played “Yankee | | Doodle” and "Turkey In The Straw.” | i P | “Carmen by the Chicago Opera | company, was good—what we could ; ear of it. The stations were both- | | ference possible. The broadecast was | cloudy and the presence of another | | etation in the background was her- | alded by that sharp whistle around | | WEAN. WNAC faded and the noise that usually accompanies this sta- | tion was present, The noise in ques- tion sounds as gomeone were moving the microphone all around the lot. PR The program from WPG, Atlantic City, was designed to please even the most critical. Several orchestras, playing beth concert music and | dance selections, were to be heard. ! The orchestra from the Hotel Am- bassador provided the high toned | teatures, rendering among others, | | that favorite, “Mighty Lak’ a Rose.” | | sifeit'e The dancg Hotel Knickerbocker dance a crashed upon the vals with a conglomer- | z2. “Where Is That | 2 they asked, and then broke out with, “You're The | Only One.” WrG's ouncer, just before | sisn statcd that tonight's ib be from the boiler | | room—of we don’t know. .

S Supreme Conrt Dy The Assoclated Press, Chicago, Jan, 31.—Coalonel Charles R. Forbes, former director of the Unlted States Veterans' Bureau and John W. Thompson, wealthy &t Louls and Chicago contractor were found gullty last night of conspiracy to defraud the government in con- tracts for soldlers' hospitals, The federal jury took twelve ballots and delberated five hours, Defense counsel at once moved for a new trial and indicated that the case would be taken, if neces- sary, to the United States supreme court, Hearing on the motion was set for February 4 and sentence was | reserved pending its disposal, The maximum penalty is two vears' imprisonment and a $10,000 fine or either. The jury interrupted its deliber- ation after four hours to ask the court concerning its right to con- sider over acts committed beyond the jurisdiction of the trial court and was informed that the verdict must be confined to acts within the jurisdiction of the court. The first nine ballots showed nine to three for conviction; the next two ten to two, and the end of ten weeks' testimony and argumént came on the twelfth, The principal overt act charge was the alleged payment of $5,000 cash to Forbes by Eltas H. Morti- mer, chief prosecuting witne here June 20, 1922, Mortimer said he paid the money as agent. \ At that time, the government charged, there existed a conspiracy between Thompson, Forbes, Morti- mer, James W. Black, deceased partner of Thompson and Charles F. Cramer, deceased, former general counsel for the Veterans' Bureau, fraudulently to award veterans' hos- | pital contracts Black interests, Mortimer testified that the gen- eral plan of the alleged conspiracy was agreed to at a meeting in Washington June 15, 19 and the detailed arrangements made during an officlal inspection trip n June and July 1922, The indictment grew out of sen- sational charges of corruption, col- lusion and loose management in the Veterans’ Bureau under Forbes in 1921 and 1922, related by Mortimer before a senate investigating com- mittee in 1928, Forbes is also under indictment in Baltimore on charges of conspiracy to defraud the government through | the sale of surplus supplies from the | Veterans' Bureau store house at Perryville, Md. to Thompson and CLEAN AND SWEET AND IRONED THAT IS WHAT WE MEAN BY ROUGH DRY WASH SERVICE of Washing and Dry- ing the entire wash, starching A necessary pieces, ir and table linen at - 11¢ Thompson’s | ABANDONS GHARGE AGAINST CROWELL Govt.'s Appeal From Court De- cision Will Be Withdrawn Washington, Jan. 81.—The gov- ernment has abandoned prosecution of its appeal in the action against Benedlct Crowell, of Cleveland, former assistant secretary of war, and six other defendants on charges of conspiracy to defraud the gove ernment in connection with wartime construction contracts, The department of justice an- nounced last night that Attorney General Stone had decided to with- draw the government's appeal from the decision of Justice Hoehling of the District of Columbia supreme court sustaining the demurer in the case after concluding that the fn- | dictment “did not state a crime” | and was otherwise indefinite fin terms, determination of the govern- ment's final course in the case, offi- | clals explained, must await a more complete examination of the matters involved. % | Returned by a federal grand jury here in Decemjer, 1022, the indiet- ment was the first of its kind re- ing from the war fraud investiga- tions directed by Attorney General | Daugherty immediately after ho | took office, | The other defendants besides Crowell, all of whom were members | of, or associated with, the council of | | national defense were: Morton C‘ Tuttle, of Boston; William A.
