Following a lour of In ' spection through the present court i lii.use and the Jail, the committee J n;:nid as one that it was impractical to consider rebuilding the structures and decided the only action for the best interests of the county was to i consider the construction of a new building, either salvaging the old one or letting It Btund to be used for other purposes. The rhalrman of the committee meeting, R. A. Hersher, called for oi'lulons of tho various members and all spore in favor of a new building, but stressed the necessity of raising the funds before the construction was started. A motion was made and carried re questing the chairman to appoint two committees, one on the Jail and Ihe oilier on the court house to secure figures and Information as to the ex pense of remodeling the buildings lo make it suitable for use for four or five years, while funds are being raided to start the new building. The committee to secure figures on the jril consists of John rtusenbiapk. A. C. Marslers and I. K. Kruger. The court house riMutnlttee Is composed of J. H. Rooth, Harry Pargeter and R. R. Clarke. The two committees will report back on April 7th, at which time the conniiitlee will take final action on the recommendations they expect to make to the county court. The count v Jail was thoroughly In spected by the committee and all the members condemned the present con dition of the building.

White declared he would block further attempts to delay the trial, as he had already granted two postponements. Federal officials learned early last summer, through secret agents in Russia and Germany, that the Ameri can branch of the Communist party, was planning a gigantic convention. Secret agents here worked for mon'hs In an effort to gather Informa tion regarding the convention. Much of the credit for discovery of the meeting place was given to Francis Ashworth, federal operative, who Join ed the Communist party and was ap pointed a delegate to the convention. He notified his superiors that the convention was to be held at wring- man. August 2 the date five Federal operatives ar rived here to look the ground over. The Communists had selected a se cluded summer resort tucked awsy In the sand dunes a half mile from Rridg man.
