been crowding our store since
the beginning of Ward Week,"
H. L. Brown, manager of the
Montgomery Ward store, stated.
'Everv department is experienc
ing sales increases over last year
"Certainly the great success ot
this Ward Week sales-event in
dicates a more optimistic feeling
among shoppers generally, and
a greater eagerness to buy in
large quantities when particu
larly good values are offered.
Much credit must also be given
to the effectiveness of our news
paper advertising space in tell
ing so many customers of the
low Ward Week prices."
The Ward Week sales event
which continues until the end
of this week, is offered simul
taneously in Montgomery Ward
stores all o"er the country. By

to the nature and source of the
threats or against whom, other
than himself, they had been di
rected, hut at a subsequent
point in the prepared speech he
added:
"I know that the people who
feci so intensely on this bill may
one day put into effect the
threats they have made, but to
act otherwise than in accord
ance with one's Judgment and
conscience would be as a man
washing his hands In the face
of possible threat of Christian
ity's crucifixion."
Walsh in Warning.
Senator Walsh (D. Mass.l Ma
lonev's predecessor in debate
and an opponent of repealing
the arms embargo, told the sen
ate the sale of ammunition and
war equipment by this country
might bring the European war
"right to our front door."
He visualized submarines and
warplanes of belligerent nations
lurking off shore to attack ships
laden with munitions consigned
to the other side.
As the 12th day of debate
opened, Senator Austin of Ver
mont, assistant Republican lead
er of the senate, who is sup
porting the administration's bill,
proposed all neutrality legisla
tion expire "when this present
war is over." He offered an
amendment to accomplish that.
Barkley Hopeful.
Majority Leader Barkley ex
pressed hope speech - making
might end, and voting begin on
the amendments before the
week-end, but he snid it had
been impossible to get an agree
ment to limit debate.
Maloney, discussing opposition
contentions that repeal of the
arms embargo would be a step
toward war, said repeal was be
ing advocated by 40 senators
with sons or other relatives sub
ject to military duty.
Walsh, chairman of the naval
affairs committee, urged that
United States efforts be directed
toward building up armed
strength and preserving strict
neutrality.
"Instead of spending time and
energy adopting legislation
which will mark us as unneu
tral and partisan before the
world, destroy our moral influ
ence as neutrals, and ultimately
surely involve us," he declared,
"we should be giving our at
tention to building up a strong,

the death of Miss Oberholtzer,

was "void" because the indict

Judge Gentry accepted tha
state's view that the legal point
raised by Stephenson already
had been disposed of In tha
state supreme court and were
not subject to review here.
