Embarrassing Moments
New York Daily Mirror.
I am a clerk in a post office and I
have a girl friend visiting me who
drag* her keels when she walks. The
other day someone came in shuffling
their heels and I glanced up to see a
famil ! ar rosc-cclored coat, and could
I not help saying, “I knew it was you,
anybody could tell your noisy feet.”
To my surprise a complete stranger
! was looking at me in a bewildered
; fashion.
j A slip of the tongue caused me a
' great deal of embarrassment. I am
stenographer in a law office. The
' otWr day my boss had three clients in
his office, when he asked me to read
an article for them. Being a little
timid as I never had done such a
thing before. I began with,’ “Herring
on the suit contesting the holograph
will of so and so;” when my employer
interrupted me by saying, “Pardon
me. Miss S„ I think you have made a
mistake.” Looking back. I saw the
word hearing instead of herring and
apologised blushingly.
Slander Over the Radio.
Monroe Enquirer.
Radio broadcasting of ers unexcelled
opportunities for slander because, un
like the printed page, it leaves no
•tell-tale, not to be denied, record of
what is said Into the ether the
story goes, to be picked up here and
there, far and near, by unidentified
and unknown listeners nnd then out
of sound, without leaving a trace
Effective denial of a candard is ex
ceedingly difficult.
An interesting illustration of this
fact comes from Chicngo, where
State's Attrmcy Robert E. Crowe, re
cently flipping the dials of his radio,
tuned in on some hilarious dance mu
sic from a cabaret, and was amazed
to hear the announcer proclaim that
“our friend, State’s Attorney Crowe,
is sitting at a front table.” Mr.
Crewe secured a squad of detectives,
and arrested five men operating the
station and declared he was going to
punish the guilty ones to the limit of
'ais authority.
Because Columbia University had
one of the most brilliant offensive
teams in the history of the Inter
collegiate Ilaskctba’l League, follow
ers of the light blue and whUo are
this year celebrating their first clear
title victory in the league in nearly
fifteen years.

Senator Walsh Pushes Wheeler
Case Into Limelight Again.
BY CHARLES P. STEWART.
NBA Service Writer.
How many among us (senators)
will care to incur the displeasure of
the Department of Jnsthte if it may
with impunity employ perjured, testi
mony to wreak its vengeance upon
those who thus dare? I propose to
demonstrate that that is just wbat
it did in the case of my colleague,
Senator Wheeler.
—Senator Thomas J. Walsh of Mon
tana, in the United States Senate,
March 10.
* * »-
Washington Strong language
that.
It went with Senator Walsh’s de
mand on Attorney General John G.
Sargent to advise the Senate if he
intends to make perjury charges
against George B. Hayes, “surprise
witness” against Senator Wheeler in
the latter’s trial in Montana on an
accusation of improperly using his
official position in a personal client's
interest with the Department of the
Interior.
It suggests that the Justice De
partment hasn't got the Wheeler
case entirely off its hands yet.

It wilt be recalled that WnepW
Was indicted while making things
unpleasant for the then Attorney
General Harry M. Daugherty. He
and his friends declared it a frame
up from the first.
The Senate investigated and gave
Wheeler a clean bill of health.
Noverthe'ess he was tried in Mon
tana. It was le-M even than a weak
ease, barring what ITayes had to say.
The jury, however, didn’t believe
Hayes—whose story certainly did
sound improbable, at best—and ac
quitted the senator on its first vote.
Tribes Found in Desert,
An expedition sent out by the Rus
sian Academy of Sciences has discov
ered primitive tribes in the deserts of
Central Asia who were previously un
known to the outside world. These
people, according to their sages, had
not heard from the rest of the world
or 800 years or more. They live in
the. Kara Kmu desert in Turkmenis
tan in all the simplicity of the no
mads of Bible times, dwelling in
tents and tending their flocks of
camels, sheep and goats. Although
they have been for centuries within
the bowlers of Russia, they did not
know of the existent'? of such a na
tion. Their amazement at seeing
the members of the expedition did not
prevent them from offering that hos
pitality which has reached its high
est degree of perfection only among
the wild tribes of the desert.
