Block Prints Being Shown
Speoner-Thayer Display by Wetherstone to be Exhibited During January
Block prints created by Donald F Wetherley, young Cape Cod artist, are on display on the south balcony of Spooner-Thayer art museum, and will continue to be exhibited throughout the month of January.
Mr. Wetherstine was formerly a painter and it was just a fortunate accident that he began block printing. He believed that block prints gave variety and restful change from the complexity of color and he realized the demand for them was increasing. He turned to hand lettering and did dildle down to a fine cisselling point, and tried a black and white of one of his paintings. "Just for fun" as he expressed it, he sent this to the black and white show in Philadelphia, and fascinated by block printing, did another and another until he had a complete half dozen, whereupon he sold him. He found there was quite a market for his prints, and after being contacted "From Provincetown to Brittany," the series now exhibited in Spooner-Thayer.
Mr. Wetherstone does all his printing by hand using a hard rubber rubber ground which makes it possible to get clear even prints. He sketches directly on the block, and works rapidly. Mr. Wetherstone is a member of many associations of artists, and he exhibits at the National Academy of Art, at the Pennsylvania Academy, and at the China International and American shows.

Reed Introduces Fight for Capital Punishment Law
Preparing Companion Bill for Early Introduction, Listing Death Crimes
STATE C. OF C. TO AID
Topeka, Jan. 12-(UP)—A new fight for a capital punishment law for Kansas was launched today in the state legislature. Representative W.H. Reed, of Wyandotte county, introduced a bill providing for installation of an electric chair at the courtroom to prepare a companion bill for early introduction to prescribe the crimes which would be punishable by death.
Representative Reed declared that because Kansas does not impose the death penalty gangsters from Missouri and other states have used the Sun- tern as a weapon, he said which to "put their victims on the spot." This condition is particularly true in the vicinity of Kansas City, Kans., where many assassinations have taken place presumably at the hands of criminals from across the Kansas state.
By coincidence Representative Reed occupies seat number 100 in the House. Two years ago it was occupied by Donald Muir of Anthony who led the fight for capital punishment in that session.
At almost the same time Reed was offering his first bill, announcement was made by the state chamber of commerce to support the measure wholeheartedly.
