Talking to Million hy Radio a Cinch, Says Rice-?No One Can Talk Back By Grantland Rice We have been asked to tell just how it feels to talk to a million people, scattered over two hundred thousand square miles, in a singla address. After the first pleasant shock, when we discovered that no one could answer us back or cut in with a winning argument, the rest of it was something of a thrill, in this respect, at least: After the first inaugural statement it was as simple as talking to one man, a dumb man who isn't deaf; as simple as asking for a cigarette or ordering a peck of potatoes from the grocer over the phone. The most intricate contrivance in the world, to one as unversed in mechanics or electricity as we are, had suddenly become the simplest thine: in a highly complex age. If we had ever been addicted to public speaking we might have missed the ringing applause from our audi? ence. Still, there were moments when we almost felt, by overworking I the imagination, that we could take the chers for Frisch and Nehf and Bush as personal tributes at the conclusion of some ringing outburst of eloquence, such as "Kelly strikes out." Our imagination, possibly, should also have encompassed the greal crowds and the distant spaces waiting for the story of each play. There was an early flash of this, but after a single inning it was just as if w< had been doing this same thing for twenty years, showing again hov? ?quickly human nature adjusts itself to the ways of science and' th< sudden shocks of modern existence, where the impossible takes plac? ???or?? fift-ooM nr twpnlv m?niltps thlTmfVi tho iluv I Jury Tampering | Charged in Boston Financial Inquiry Special Panel Discharged as State Attorney Tells Court of Meetings; Tni9t Company Heads Indicted BOSTON, Oct. 4.?The special session of the Suffolk County Grand Jury, i summoned five weeks ago to investi? gate the affairs of several closed trust I companies as well as the II. V. Greene financial organizations, was discharged to-day by Attorney General J. Weston Allen, who ?called it, after he had told Superior Court Judge Bishop that the jurors had been tampered With. The jury was the first special session ever held in the commonwealth. It had returned indictments against several officers of the Groeno companies, and also against the former presilent. and - I treasurer of the Prudential Trust Co3n pany. It was considering the affairs of the Hanover Trust Company, closed by Bank Commissioner Joseph C. Allen two years ago, after the collapse of the Ponzi enterprise. Attorney General Allen told the court that an officer of the Hanover Trust Company had been seen "on more than one occasion In conference with certain members of the special grand jury, both insido and outside of the courthouse, and he has met them out? side the courthouse and they have left in his company." When the Investiga? tion into the affairs of the company began, Mr. Allen asserted, "it became evident that efforts were being made to bring improper influence to bear upon the grand jurors." Additional indictments returned by the jury were announced after tht jurors had been dismissed. John H Mc?amee and William P. Bailey, for? mer president and treasurer, respec tivrly, of the trust company, were charged jointly with the larceny o: $354,257 from the savings deparmen of the bank. Another indictmen charged them with making falsa re turns of the bank's condition. Th jury also returned new indictment against Greene, charging conspiracy t defraud, and against six other men o a similar rharsre.

M. Jewell, president. The latest additions to tlio settling roads were the Fort Smith &, West? ern, the Georgia, Florida ? Alabama and the Chicago Groat Western. Replying to numerous requests for an interpretation of tho Baltimore plan, upon which the strike leaders say the settlements have been made, the circular declares three reasons actu? ated the executive in accepting this agreement basis. It gives, first, a split in the Association of Railway Execu? tives?one group agreeable to a settle? ment and the "other bent on destroying these organizations"; second, willing? ness of tho liberal group to negotiate national agreements and lay down a basis for settlements on other roads; third, that no justification could be found for keeping IL'5,000 men on strike who could return to work and ussist in financing those who remained idle. A second special circular to the mem? bership contained bii interpretation in detail of Federal Judge James H. Wil kerson's decision on the injunction bill filet! against the organization by At? torney General Daugherty. It was sup? plied by Donald R. Rlchberg, attorney for the shop crafts. "We cannot interpret the temporary Injunction, drastic as its terms are," said Mr. Riohbajrg's opinion in part, "as in any way restraining or pre? venting the officers and other repre? sentatives of the shop crafts' organi? zations from doing nil In their power to maintain an orderly discipline and con? duct of the lawful work of the organi? zations, to continue to call for and expect to receive tho loyal support of each and every member and to continuo to woi k in harmony with a common lawful purpose to advance the common interests of tho organized shop craft employees." i ? i ... i Dancer Suing Whitney AlreadyWed,Say8 Defense Miss Fontaine Declared to Have Been, Wife of Sailor at Time of Alleged Proposal FCHENECTADY, N.

It's your work to produce that kind. If you have to spend a million dollars to get it, do so. Remem? ber, the best tea and nothing short of thatl Nothing else counts." Money was freely spent to get definite quality re? sults before the first tea was marketed. Standards of growing, picking, curing, shipping and pack? ing were established so that uniformity would be certain, and those standards were highly expensive but they have been justified because more Lipton13 Tea is consumed today than any other brand. Sealed in the well-known flavor-retaining package, Lipton's Tea reaches your table generally within ten weeks from the time it was picked in Ceylon, 8,000 miles away.
