For the New Year A Plea May this, the New Tear bring to hearts, that sorrow, Forgetfulnesa of troubled bygone yeara. May eyes made joyous greet each new tomorrow, Brave eyes that held the mists of unshed tears. And may the New Tear bring to those who wander With muted lips down twlstd paths of pain. Once more the peace that Illness tore asunder, And may their pale, wan faoes smile again. O. New Tear, touch with Infinite compassion. All those who thoughtleas, tread Life's shifting sand Imbue them with a courage fine to fashion, Their paths upon the higher, firmer land. We who have known heartaches, and pain and weakness Who've worn the sombre coat of doubt and fear. We thank Thee, God In reverence and meekness, For faith that's bora anew each glad New Year.

(AP) Plans were made today for quick ac tion In the senate Judiciary commit tee next week on prohibition legisla tion. Including both beer and repeal. Chairman Norrls called a meeting of the full committee for Monday to take up the house 3.3 per cent beer bill, while Chairman Blaine said meeting of the subcommittee draft ing a prohibition repeal resolution would be held Tuesday or Wednes day Norrls agreed there waa some doubt whether a quorum of the committee would be mustered Monday, a legal holiday, but said It no- he would call a apecial meeting later in the week rf announced he woud ask expedi tion action. A growing convwtlon that Presi dent Hoover will veto the beer bill ha led during the holiday recess to something approaching an agreement between wet and drys In vhe senate that action on the measure should be speeded. Dtvb, confident that a veto will be forthcoming, have shown no evi dence of forming a concerted drive to prevent a vole, while idvocates of legalized beer have decided that if the legislation Is to be killed It might a well go through In It present form as quickly as possible.

Jordan, Ashland merchant. f'ed Friday afternoon on manslau6,ier charge for the death of Walter F. Long, Dunsmulr, Calif., Christmas day, as the tragic climax of a trivial quarrel. District Attorney George A. Codding said yesterday the case would be called to the attention of the grtmd Jury "as a routine mat ter." Jordan vras freed by Justice of the Peace L. A. Roberts, after hearing the testimony of 18 witnesses. The court ruled there was "insufficient evi dence" to hold Jordan to the grand Jury. There waa a large crowd attendance at the preliminary hear ing and much interest was manifest by Ashland citizens. Reports from Ashland Saturday said that the decision of the court gener ally met with public approval, and in accordance with the evidence. Long died from a severed Jugular vein, sustained when he and Jordan clenched and fell to the floor during a struggle. It was claimed. Long's neck struck a Jagged bottle neck held in Jordan's hand, according to the testimony. The quarrel started when Long resented an alleged reflection upon his sister. Mrs. Pearl Mackrodt of Portland, and former Ashland tele phone girl. Jordan, represented by Attorney George M. Roberts of this city, plead self-defense. Witnesses called were: Frank Car son, Kellar Maobott and Kenneth Baldwin, members of the Ashland fire department, ho manned the ambu lance; Dr. C. H. Haines, attending physician; John Enders, a neighbor, called when the tragedy occurred; Mrs. Pearl Mackrodt of Portland, sis ter of Long; Charles Clause, chief of police and George Inlow. policeman; Victor Mllburn. deputy coroner; Gene Hastings, at whose home Long and his sister visited before going to the Jordan home; Sheriff Ralph Jennings and Deputy Sheriff Louis Jennings, Captain Lee M.
