CHARLES CRAWFORD
Charles Crawford, rugged, virile, kind, generous and
one of the most honorable of men, an upstanding figure
in Seward for years, passed away suddenly yesterday and
today, there are few who have not felt a tug at their
heart-strings in his departure from this world.
Many times, elected Mayor of Seward, and a member
of the City Council, he was ever active in advancing the
welfare of his home town. These positions he filled with
honor to himself as well as of material credit to the city.
‘‘His life w7as gentle;
And the elements so mixed in him.
That nature could stand
Before the whole world
And say this was a man.”
OUR NATION'S DEFENDERS ACHIEVED
UNDYING HONOR
As the great deeds of history thunder on and on down1
the centuries, the memory of the men who performed!
them grows ever brighter in, the golden light of America’s
gratitude.
Those indomitable souls who opposed an impenetra- j
earner of lead and steel against their country’s;
enemies; who, struck down in the prime of life, rise again
in history, are tomorrow the subjects of the sincerestl
homage that man can give man.
We believe it was Cicero who said, “In the most cor
rupt nation you have the most laws.” Anyway, the United
States has the most laws.
A Gateway reader makes the suggestion that the i
government should bring back the Marines from Nicar- j
agua and shove ’em into the city of “iron pineapples” |
Chicago.

WHAT a difference twenty years has made in one of Henry Ford’s
products! Here’s a 190S Ford roadster that sold for $825, F.O.B.
Detroit, when there were no such things as demountable rims
and the cowl lamps burned kerosene oil. And below is the 192S Ford
roadster that sells for $385 F.O.B. Detroit and has balloon tires and a
rumble seat!

PACIFIC COAST STEAMSHIP COM
PANIES PLAN SEVERAL
ADDITIONS
SAN FRANCISCO, May 29. (/P)—
Additions to the fleets of the Pacific
Coast shipping companies were seen,
as the result of the approval of the
Jones-White Shipping Bill by Presi
dent Coolidge, in statements made by
W. P. Roth, president of the Matsor
Navigation Company.
The Matson Company, he said, is
planning two steam turbined vessels
with a speed greated than 18 knots,
for the Pacific Coast-Australia trade,
under the flag of the Oceanic Oriental
Company.
The Oceanic-Oriental Company will
probably add to its fleet, after Con
gress! has made pi'ovisions for the pro
viding of funds^ authorized by the
Jones-White Bill, Roth said.

MOTHER OF THIRTEEN
BRIDGEPORT Conn., May 29. (£>)—
Unrelenting, after having her husband
jailed and unforgiving of the misery
lie has caused her, Mrs. Edith Crom
well, whose family problems have at
tracted the nation’s interest, was
waiting for the law—if there is1 one in
her behalf—to take it’s course.
Mrs. Cronwell, 41, had her husband,
Edward, an ?18 a week teamster, ar
rested because he sees no reason to
curtail the size of his family. The!
case is open and the prosecutors are
searching for a statute upon which
Cromwell can be tried.
The wife, who has already borne 13
children, would place her life in jepv
prody if she were to have another, ac
cording to physicians.
