Funeral services will be held
Wednesday morning at 9 o’clock
at Laneville for Mrs. R. L. Need-
ham who died at the family home
this morning. Services will be
conducted by Rev. Joe Z. Tower,
presiding elder of the Tyler dis-
trict.
Mrs. Needham is a native of
Laneville where she was born Jan.
6, 1877, and in which place she had
spent her life. For many years
she was active in social and relig-
ious Circles and was recognized as
one of the leading women of the
community.
Survivors Include the husband,
two daughters, Misses Toffie and
Reda Fay Needham, one son, Hall
Needham, three sisters, Mrs; T. T.
Crawford, Mrs. Irwin Harper and
Miss Letfa Johnson of Cushing;
four brothers, R. P. and Bill John-
son of Cushing, Frank Johnson of

tor C. E. Johnson of Henderson.
two of their hostages, whom they
released here.
Authorities said Hamilton and
his companion went on a shopping
tour March 25, making a purchase
and short-changing a merchant out
of $4. The merchant identified
Hamilton from pictures.
Police believed the outlaw and
his companion bought clothing,
went to a South Memphis hotel,
registered, paid in advance, bathed,
changed clothes and left.
Hotel employes identified Ham-
ilton from photographs. Dirty,
mud-spattered clothing left by the
bandits was found in the room.
Meanwhile Mississippi police to-
day patrolled hiways into Jackson
following a report Hamilton would
return there to free three women
held as suspected accomplices of
the bandit and his pal.

“We have placed it in hundreds o

Reform waves, virtually endless

a minority of theater-goers asso-
ciate such a picture title as “Tin-

Street has about concluded that I interest in the world relies so
much upon si few letters embla-
zoned in electric bulbs as a vendor
of entertainment.
Take the simple word
sades” as sin illustration. If
peetive customers sit the box office
believe it to indicate there is
“something” about prohibition go-
ing on in the theater, they may
pass it by, figuring that the eve-
ning’s entertainment is a revival
of some old picture.
So, strange as it may seem the
greatest concern of a smoothly
functioning army oUactors, one of
Hie world’s best, known directors
and one of the largest makers of
motion pictures, is not about
whether the production will be a
success. It is whether the public
by the time the feature is released,
will have vocabularies sufficiently
clarified to know that "The Cru-
sades” is to be taken literally as
they pause before the box office.

ST. JOE, Ark. (UP)—Legends
ot a rich silver mine supposed to
be somewhere on the north bank of
the Buffalo River near where it
joins Tomahawk Creek, have been
revived with the exhibition In Mar-
shall recently of pieces of high-as-
saying silver orc and a few pieces
of almost pure silver.
J. Turley, who came here from
Tulsa recently, owned the ore. He
leased from C. B. Passmore, cf
Marshall, 300 acres of land, from
which he said he had taken the
metal.
The sliver mine, called the Tabor
Mine, was supposed to have (been
operated by Indians long before
white men reached this flection.
Prospectors have worked the
country east of here since the Civil
War searching for the mine.
Dr. W. F. Rogers, a merchant
here and formerly a longt-tlme
practitioner in this section vouches
for the story that a man named
Tabor lived near the mouth of the
Tomahawk until the closing days
of the Civil War and appeared to
have an inexhaustible supply of
new silver.
For the fiscal year 1834. ___
airmail appropriation was fifteen
million dollars, and for the fiscal
year 1935 the appropriation was
twelve milllont. During the same
period, however, the total author-
ised flying miles over the air mall
system was increased by approxi-
mately five million miles a year.

NEW YORK, April 2 (UP) —
The AAA is expected to make an
announcement regarding the loan
on the 19.35 cotton crop soon.
The Chinese government has
concluded its agreement with the
RFC under which it was agreed to
lend up to $50,000,000 to China
for the purchase of wheat and cot-
ton. About one-third of the
amount was used. Of the amount
China used $10,000,000 to finance
the purchase of 159,536 bales of
cotton.
Senator Bankhead, Alabama,
has introduced a bill in the senate
to the effect that the manager of
the cotton pool and secretary of
agriculture be required to immed-
iately replace spot cotton sold by
them from the pool and for which
future contracts are held.

fied wines.
First vote will be on this star*
monopoly plan. It was offered
to the house today as a substitut*
for the straight repeal amend-
ment. Its proponents include
both drys and wets.
Debate began at 10 o’clock by
agreement. It was then that Mof-
fett sounded the old call: “On
with the battle!”
Arguments for and against the
state monopoly plan fell into gen-
eral classifications. Opponents
said method of control is a matter
of detail that should be easily
changeable and not put into tha
constitution. They warned it
may bring about a political ma-
chine and graft and said it "puts
the state in the liquor business.”
Those who want a state monop-
oly argued it is the only effective
control because it eliminates the
profit motive. A legislature fea
to change the system would be in-
definitely subjected to efforts
of a "whiskey lobby” to change
the plan. It can be operated at
prices that would make bootleg-
ging unprofitable and yet be taxed
to produce $8,000,000 a year in
state revenue, was another argu-
ment.
Answering letters were cited
from speakers of the Pennsylvania
and Iowa legislatures that the
state monopoly as established in
those states had proved a failure.
Instances of alleged corruption
and abuse were cited.
Many side issues enlivened the
debate. Rep. J. D. Young of Cue-
ro, chairman of the house com-
mittee on liquor traffic, said that
after the battle for repeal had

board of directors of the chamber
has recommended that the invita-
tions be accepted, but the recom-
mendation has yet to be approved
by the membership.
