It is the North Wilkesboro Hust ler testifying as to conditions in its home community. Men working under the CWA have been employed hauling sand from Cub creek to be used in street work in Wilkesboro. No horses are being used to idraw the two wagons, and it is ap unusual and amusing spectacle to see 16 to 17 men to each wagon, some pulling, some pushing, some accompanying the wagons through the street. Waste of time and waste of money are to be expected on these CWA jobs. Apparently many persons so employed do not feel the urge to give full time and honest work,' in too many instances at least. But that is not what is expected, accord ing to repeated declarations from headquarters. Our State adminis trator has said and repeated that CWAworkers must not loaf on the jobs, that they are expected to give honest service and if they do not they, should removed after being admonished. The sincerity of the State administrator, and other ad ministrators for that matter, isn’t questioned. But if the workers are to work as they would in private employ, then a.boss; foreman, or by whatever name the OAerseer. of the job is called, must be provided who is willing and able to carry out in structions. Probably in most cases the boss feels the same .about the work as others under him. The local administrator would of course have difficulty, in finding foremen who would feelcalled to keep the workers busy, or. -maybe the ',ad: ministrator believes it impossible— Henry, of- Winstou^weri Monday.

But we still have the three cent stamp and the two cent stamp for writing checks and these are doom ed to stay with us it seems. Farley is not such a great (?) business, man as he prided himself on being and it appears now that the postal deficit will be as big as ever, even under the wise, wonderful and eco nomic administration of Franklin D.

Post Master General Failey in his annual report submitted recent ly, echoing the worus of President Roosevelt to Congress, suggests continuation of the three cent rate to help whittle down an expected bulk.postal deficit for the comiog year. Unless the three-cent rate is re- ancted by Congress berore it auto matically expires on J uly I,. Farlev foresees a postal deficit of $190,- 000,000 for the year 1935. The post master general reports postal business declined last year for the third year in succession and anuounces a $112 374,892 postal deficit for the year.

Corigressman sometimes explain tnat they do the funny things they do because they don’t' know what the folks back home really want them to do. ' There shouldn’t be much doubt in Congressional minds that the folks home really want tax relief during 1934 Some tax relief can be as sored if the entire Federal tax on motor fuel is eliminated, just as the one-half cent Federal gasoline tax ended with .the new year. The saving would be considerable, average $9 OOO for each of the 25,- OOO OOO gasoline taxpayers of the country. If these millions each paid off $9 OO of debts, prosperity would take one more step toward that his toric corner. What this country needs how is more money spent lo cally, not at Washington. However, for feaJ some Congress men scfll don’t realize the folks back home want tax relief, it might be a good idea for the folks to write each of their Senators and Representa tives and tell them so. .It may be a bit of a chore to find out exactly who represent each of us—election was a long time ago—but -there are ways of finding out. The local post master, for instance, ought to know; If several million people wrote lettersto their Cingressmen saying they wanted this Federal gasolire tax removed, and also started what else they, wanted done. Congressmen would know just what to do. It isn’t an easy task to be a good Congress man.

Water Boy Gets More. Water boys on the CWA payroll are getting more pay than school teachers who are engaged in CWA projects, declares H. P. Harding, superintendent of schools in Char lotte. Unskilled labor on. the CWA projects receieves 45: cents per hour for a 30 hour week; while the school teachers receive only 40 cents per hour . The school teachers have been tak ing it on the chin for some years how, and today, their salaaies as pa:d by the estate are pitifully small. TheCWA projects, it appears, are continuing the policy of letting the teachers receive the small enn of the deal, and they are being paid even less than-unskilled laborers.

The cold weather last week bursted a good many water pipes, but'no doubt it saved thousands of bushels of fruit. It's an ill wind that blows nobody good. The money biil has been passed and signed, and is now a law. It is said the dollar is only worth a- bout 60 cents, but everybody is busy chasing them same as usual. Well, the groundhog didn’t freeze last week, despite the awful cold weather. He saw his shadow and the coal dealer is wearing an extra large grin. Well, so long as our credit is good why should we worry? A big man is needed to look after all this Federal Aid work. There is much growling and dissen- tion about the way tbe jobs are be ing dispensed throughout this sec tion of tbe country. Many have jobs who don’t need them, while othersneedjcbs who can’t get them. We didn’t go to the President’s ball last week. The object was worthy, but we were taught in our •youth to keep away from the dance hall. As the old woman said a hundred years ago, ‘‘perhaps the Lord sent it, but the devil brought it,” referring to the huge sum raised at the dances which goes to pay expenses for fighting infantile paralysis. It will not be lonjr until we will be in the midst of another hot pri- may campaign AU of the county officers, the solicitor, Congressman and State Senators will be nominat ed. So far as we know all of the county officers, together with Soli citor Jones, will be in the race a gain. There will be two or more men in the race for several of the county offices, according to infor ination that is being whispered a- round. For solicitor, we under stand that there will be at least five candidates. So far as we know no one has been mentioned for Con gress to make the race against Walter Lambeth,, the democrat from Lexington, who now repre sents this district. Lambeth voted wet in the recent wet and dry elec tion, which means that hundreds of democrats in Davie will not vote tor him again. So far as we can find out every Republican who is now holding office in Davie county, voted dry in the recent election. It will be useless to nominate a wet man for a county office in Davie. Our : people expressed themselves very forcibly last November, and they meant just what they said. No wets need apply for any office in Davie. - . Gurney Foster Is Dead.

He was Register of Deeds of Davie county, having been elected to this position in 1932 Mr. Foster was widely known throughout the county, and had hundreds of friends who were sad dened by his untimely death. Be fore ~oming to Mocksville, Mr. Fos ter held a positiou as machinist with the Ervin Mills at Cooleemee. There was no more popular young man in the county than Gurner Foster. Not a word of criticism has been heard ot the manner in which he conducted his office for the 14 months that he served as Register. He filled the office with honor to himself and the county. In his death the editor of The Record has lost a warm, persona! friend.

But there is another form of remem brance of Abraham Lincoln which serves to recall him to his fellow-Ameri- CfiIis in every part of the country, not on just one day of the year, but on every day. We. as a people, have elevated Lincoln to a pedestal, in the spiritual sense, a pedestal of love and lmnor and reverence. So from many a pedestal, in the physical sense, does the bronze or stone image of Lincoln gaze down at the people who delight thus to honor him. While It would be idle to argue as to who was the great est American, if the number of statues of him that have been erected is any criterion, then It Eeeais certain that Lincoln is that man. For these images of Lincoln, portraying him In all the varied phases of his career, are to be found in IS states of the Union, from Massachu setts to Oregon and from Minnesota to Kentucky, as well as in the District of Columbia. Proof that he has become a world-figure lies in the fact - that FngIaml has two statues of him and Scot land one. Of those in this country, Illinois, the Etate which gave him to the nation, has the Jargest number—twelve. Curiously enough, Ken tucky, the state of his birth, has only three— fewer than Mew Jersey, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania, none of which have any sueh spe cial connection with his life. Indiana, where Lincoln lived as a boy, from his-seventh to his twenty-first year, has only two and both of these were erected very recently. One of the two Indiana statues Is especially significant. Among the many images of Lincoln are representatives of him as the railsplitter, the militia captain, the lawyer, the congressman, the circuit rider, the debater, the candidate for Pres ident, the President-elect, the President, the Emancipator and the orator. All of them show him in his early manhood and his maturity, and connected with the erection of virtually all of them was some element of public co-operation. But It remained for private enterprise to fur nish a new sculpture portrait of Lincoln and In 1932 the Lincoln National Life Insurance com pany unveiled In the plaza between the two wings of its building in Fort Wayne, Ind.. a heroic bronze statue of “Lincoln, the Hoosier Youth," the work of a leading American sculptor, Paul Manship.

Then there is also, in Washington the first statue of Lincoln ever made. Lott Flannery was the sculptor, and It was unveiled April 16, 1868, just a little less’ than three years after Lincoln’s assassination. ; Washington also’has another famous Lincoln statue which stands In the rotunda of the Cap itol. It was made by Vlnnie Ream, a twenty-two- year-old girl from Wisconsin who went to Wash ington to study art find took a position as a copy ist In the Post Office department at $600 a year to support herself and her father.

Experiments have been carried out over a period of years In a Swiss clinical institute, and now the Pas teur institute In Paris is testing the strangest cure of all—snake venom. There are scientists who believe that the world's poisonous snakes, which have killed millions of people In the past, may save millions more in the future, once we understand how to use their, venom properly In the treatment of disease. Already some remarkable cures are on record. About the beginning of this century, when plague was raging in India, a police sergeant, In the last stage of collapse from the dread disease, was given an injection, of cobra venom. No one expected him to live, but In a month he was back at duty. The cobra had saved his life* - The treatment, however, was not tested on a large scale. Partly the attitude of the natives, many of whom believed that patients taken to the plague camps were put to death, may have been responsible for this. Partly it was due to the fact that the action , of the venom was uncertain, and that; as a cure, It might easily be more deadly than the disease. This is because, like other snnka venoms, that of the cobra consists of a collection of powerful poisons, and, an injection of it causes reactions much, more complex than those set up by a dose of any of the simple poisons which are used in medicine. Before it can be used in the treat ment of disease, therefore, many au thorities believe that the various ele ments of the venom should be sep arated and standardized, and their action carefully studied. The scien tists of the Pasteur institute, how ever, are no doubt alive to the dan gers, and will proceed carefully. .

Not home from last night's party, I expect” “You—you’re unspeakable.” She drew herself to the farther side of the car. She was seething. Rocky seemed engaged in a bitter brooding. They said nothing more untilf he opened the door of the car for her to alight. Doris retreated from his extended hand. “I can get out of this car quite well without assistance.” He seized her arm and pulled her out roughly. “Stop acting like a fool.” They stood eye to eye, Doris on the step above him, outraged, panting with fury. At that moment nothing but physical violence could have satisfied Doris. This man had her so complete ly at his mercy. She was so helpless. She had no place to go—no ona to turn to. And he Insulted her, humiliated her. She could not think of words to express her fury. Everything else had gone from her mind. He too was filled with hate. His mouth was drawn into ugly lines. His eyes looked at her mercilessly. "Y1OU—” he began. The cheery voice of Oscar Du Val boomed at them. “Ah, my children, home again! Good. I thought you might be late for lunch.” Rocky reached out his hand toward her, smiling hypocritically. It was the last straw. She raised her fists in the air and struck out desperately. In her madness she hit the umbrella stand. It knocked over, hitting Rocky vio lently. Taken by surprise, he uttered a loud Ouch.” “I hope it hurts!” 'Rocky whiskered,"venomously,' “This is the limit This ends everything.” He rubbed his wounds tenderly. “And not too soon for me, either!” said Doris. They went In to lunch. Mr. and Mrs. Du VaI noticed nothing amiss. The meal seemed long and unendur able. Rocky was silent and brooding. Doris felt depressed. Where'did she belong? Where should she go? She considered taking Mrs. Du Val into her confidence. Rocky’s mother had been so kind—had seemed such a “I Don’t Think I Care at AU About Having You Kiss Me,” She said Confusedly. refuge.' Yet had that not been partly because she was Rocky’s wife, because she was supposed to have the Du Val seed flourishing within her? Doris felt more unhappy than ever. She had known, at least, all along that she was not going to have a baby. Mrs. Du Vai would be very angry when she* found out how Doris had taken advantage of her sympathy and love. What should she do? But the kindly Du Vals were per ceiving at last' that something bad gone wrong with the newlyweds. Doris did not eat Rocky glowered. Oscar Du Val pushed back his chair. ‘Rocky you go off somewhere with Doris for a few days where you can be alone together.” “Yes, yes,!’ said Mrs. Du-Val eager ly. “It Is not good for young people to be always with us old ones—” “We love It,” Doris spoke Impul sively.Rocky glared at her. “As a matter of fact Doris and I are leaving for. New York this after noon, Sf you don’t mind,” he said. Doris’ heart leaped with fear. So she was to leave this place—leave Mrs. Du Val, her only friend in the world. And where should she go in New York? She rose. ‘Til go and pack,” she said. “What time does the' train leave?”“I’ll drive you In my car, • said Rocky. ^ ^Doris walked s w ift ly out of the room so that they would not see her tears. Rocky’s bitter taunt recurred to her—he seemed tp think she was some kind of an evil woman. His eyes were so u n fr ie n d ly and cruet If he knew the truth he would turn her over to the police. P e r h a p s he would any way. TheJeast he would do would be to put her away In an asylum. She packed quickly. What the fu ture held In store for her she could not guess. This adventure had turned out to be farcical. “To anyone else It would be farcical although it doesn t seem so fnnny to me,” she thought Doris accused herself unmercifully She ought to have known that Mrs. Du Val was not acquainted with her. One does not run Into friends so easily when one is lost In New York. How, now, would she fincTher friends, her parents, her—(her mind shied j away)—her • husband? Then she thought again with terror of the man In the cab. If she did find her friends, It meant finding that man again. Of course he was her husband. She looked at herself earnestly In the mirror,;" She was dressed-'In the tweed that she had worn on the day of her meeting with Mrs. Du Val. The face, young and'anxious, looked back at her. She . was absolutely alone In the world. And now she was going out In It-^wlthout friends, without money. Rocky kriockedi peremptorily on the door. . - “Are you ready?” he asked curtly. “Certainly.” she said promptly. She gathered up her gloves. She took one look around the pretty fault less- room; Her haven. "Good-by,” she thought silently. “Good-by.” Bending her head so that Rocky might not see her face she left the room. She took her leave in a daze. Mrs. Du Val full of admonitions, smiles, and tears—Oscar Du Vai neglecting his precious work to bid her farewell— the kisses, the smiling servants— Rocky at the wheel grim,-saying little —then the grinding gears—and the last look over the shoulder— Then she was riding over jthe road beside Rocky. He spoke once on the long journey: “I’ll take you as far as New York,” he said unpleasantly. “But then I’m afraid we’ll have to part company—’’ Frightened, horrified, forlorn, Doris still felt that she would rather die than let him knowhow completely helpless she was. “You can drop me at the Biltmore,” she said. "O'. K.” Doris’ throat was dry, her cheeks hot from the sun. She hoped that she would not cry. It would be awful if she broke down In front of Rocky. The drive was never going to end. Doris decided that she could sleep In the park that night. She could-pawn her baggage and look for a job. Rocky smoked cigarette atter cig arette, his eyes squinting, his mouth sardonic and nnhapf>y. The hills gave way to the Bronx River parkway. Then Rocky turned off Fifth ave nue into a side street and brought the car to a standstill. He got out, walked around the car and opened the door, rihe looked at him blankly. “Well?” “Get out!” “But why—here?” “I’ve decided you’re coming with me to have a showdown with Doris.” - “Is this—is this where you live?” "As if you didn’t know it.” Doris sighed. It was so hot. She opened her bag and drew out her pow*. der case. “Come on,” Rocky command ed impatiently. “Oh—all right." Shje had small hope that Rocky’s wife would be able to unravel the mystery, but the cool iron grill before Rocky’s door looked so inviting. He smiled at her. . ‘Tm sorry for all my rudeness,” he said. “Oh it’s all right. Tm about ready to be handed over to the police any way.” She felt weary and reckless. . “There’s something about you that drives me wild. I’ve seldom met a girl who could get my goat as successfully as you can.” “I must be wonderful that- way,” Doris agreed. They entered the elevator, and Rocky pushed the button. The tiny elevator was painted dull blue and decorated with three large mirrors. Looking at herself Doris saw that she was flushed and bright-eyed from the heat She thought that she had never looked better in her life, not felt worse. The elevator stopped. Rocky opened the door. “Doris, Doris!” Rocky’s voice boomed emptily through the apartment ,Rocky’s wife was not there. As they went in they saw that the place had not been occupied for a long time. Dust lay on everything,,and there was evidence that an untidy job of pack ing had been done there, but not re cently. “H—i I” said Rocky. “My devoted wife seems ■' to have left me,- bag and baggage. She didn’t even leave me » note as far as I can discover.” Hf bent over Doris and seized her sud denly by the shoulders. "And now my dear young lady, it’s up to you t. explain. Just exactly what is th< game?”Doris^ stared back at him. “Taki your hands off my shoulders.” “When you answer my question.” But the glare in her eyes had ha>' its effect. She saw that he was pre tending to be more angry than h. actually was. They seemed to hav. reached a deadlock. “This is silly.’ said Doris. “Tou know perfectly wel‘ I know no more about your stupid olci wife than you do.” A slight grin announced that Rocky knew himself beaten. His grip on hei shoulders became more friendly. “Sc you think Doris Is stupid.” The girl flushed. She did think so. rather she had conceived a dislike for Rocky’s wife for. some : reason noi clear to herself. Tet she did not want Rocky to think so. “I think It’s stupid to hear so much about her,” she said faintly. - “I don’t know whether SheV actually stupid or not” t “Ton sweet,” saM Rocky unexpect edly and kissed her. - It seemed forever that his lips stayed on hers, blit It was actually only a moment before she was push ing him away. ‘‘I don’t think I, care a t afl about having you kiss me;’’ sin- said confusedly.

I The sin and folly of (vv. 1-5). This prohibition should not be so con strued as tp forbid our making an es timate of the lives of those about us, for “by. their fruits ye shall know them.” Neither should it prevent us from administering rebuke to those who deserve it It is not wrong to condemn the errors and faults of those who are practicing sin; neither does it mean that sin should go unrebuked until we ourselves are perfect It does definitely and vigorously rebuke readi ness to blame, others and to magnify their weaknesses and errors.. 2. The duty of discrimination In dealing out holy things (v. 6). The gospel should be preached to ail. The Word of God should be proclaimed to all, but at the same time it should be borne In mind that “dogs and swine” have no comprehension of holy things. 3. QuaiiScation for discrimination (vv. 7-12). a. A life of prayer (w. 7-11). Only those are able rightly to divide the word of truth who live in close communion with God. b. The disposition to treat others as one would be treated by others (v. 12). The Word of God and the com mon judgment of mankind constitute a definite standard of life so far as that standard bears on the principle gov erning the life. In all doubtful ques tions between man and man we should deal with our fellows as we would have them deal with us. In fact, the whole law concerning human relations is compressed into this one rule. II. Entrance Into the Kingdom. Urged (w. 13, 14). Before everyone there are set two ways and only two ways, life and death, heaven and hell. Two gates open out into these ways. The nar row gate is the way of life. The in vitation is for all to enter this gate. III. The Warning Against False Teachers (vv. 15-20). 1. Their real existence (v. 15). Ever since God had a people, false proph ets and teachers have appeared among them. That they appear everywhere need not surprise us, for' Christ fore told that such should arise. 2. Their nature (v-. 15).o Eu They are hypocritical. They are emissaries of Satan. , The devil does his most successful work by mas querading as an angel of light (II Cor. 11:14, 15). All through the centuries Satan’s success has come mainly through his ability to deceive.b. They are destructive. This Is suggested by their being “ravening wolves.” False teachers are doing their most deadly work while pretend ing, to be loyal to the Bible and to Jesus Christ. 8. The unfailing test (vv. 16-18). “By their fruits ye shall know them.” Every tree bears its own kind of fruit Nature is inexorable in her laws as to this. It is equally true in the spirit ual, world. , 4. Their ultimate end (v. 19). AU false teachers shall ultimately be pun ished by being cast into the fire. Al though God has infinite patience and bears long, he will see to it ttiat this evil work does not go on forever. IV. The Dangers of Empty Profes sion (w. 21-23), I. Merely calling Christ “Lord” will not answer for doing his will (v. 21). 2.. One may do supernatural works and still be lost (vv. 22, 23). Not all supernatural works are divine. The devil is a supernatural being. AU evil doers are under his sway. 3. A coming separation from God (v. 23).

Lion Honse is now a social center, where ^seventeen capable In structors teach literature, a rt home economics, one wife at a, time, etc. This social center Is sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, as is also a very creditable monthly magazine called the Improve ment Era. . . .In which I read that one day a man called on the good Doc tor Eellogg of Battle Creek, when the following conversation took placet. “I am sixty-five years old, and doc tors tell me I have only a year to live. What do you think abont It?" “What’s your name?” “Charles . S. Keene.” “What do yon do?” "Fm vice president of the American To bacco- company.” “Smoke?" “Yes; ten or twelve cigars a day.” “Well, quit that, and I’ll promise yon three or four years longer.” (Mr. Keene quit, and lived twenty years; Is now, In fact, a nuisance to his friends beg ging them to quit smoking). * I met an angry, disheveled, man to day, and asked; “What’s the trou ble?”, He replied: ‘Tm not being treated right: I’m not satisfied.” And I said: “I have never known anyone who was satisfied; yon are no exception. Calm down; you are neg lecting your work to express in dignation, In addition to bothering others.”—I do not visit graveyards, except to attend the fEnerals of spe cial friends, but I should like to see there finally a tombstone bearing this Inscription, as representing, the man : buried: “In Memory of a Man VVho Is Satisfied”—I am almpst satisfied at eighty; I hope to be entirely so within a few years. I’ve bad my chance at the best there is in the best country tn the world; in the most modern civilization. And I am not as tired of natural tasks as I am of the excited arguments of foolish men unreasonably dissatisfied.. • * • ^ As far back as I can remember, men have been looking for Captain Kidd’s hidden treasure. So far they haven’t found a penny. Captain Kidd was a pirate, and worked so steadily at his trade It is believed he had no time left for wine, women and song, and therefore buried his treasure. Lately the searchers for buried treasure have been encouraged: a pot of buried money was actually found In a Texas cotton field, put there by a ' kidnaper; so another; boom In seeking treasure is on. Where did Samuel Insull, Ivar Kruger, bury their ill-gotten gains? One pot of gold found In some hundreds of years pf search (and that containing only a few hundred dol lars) Is not much encouragement for buried-treasure workers. Thieves at the end of their lives are nearly al ways poor; they have no treasure to bury. Only honest capable and indus trious men are able to maintain strong boxes. I have long regarded Will Rogers as a good deal more of a philosopher than comedian; at present he is the only writer widely read who has com mon sense. Nicholas Murray Butler Is equally wise, but has no circulation; his writing appears only In privately circulated pamphlets. The present circulars sent out by banks, railroads, commercial clubs and business firms might-as well not be issued at all; the masses only read newspapers. . . . The conservatives make a mistake In not buying space-In all the newspapers, frankly labeling it advertising, and pleading daily for common sense in public affairs. The conservatives have a strong case, and plenty of men able to present it effectively, but for some stra'nge reason refuse to go to the newspapers for a hearing. The cost would be much less than the present plan of every^ indignant man Issuing his own circular. There are plenty of conservatives to appeal to, but they read nothing but gross radicalism. j. . . . There is one thing to the credit of dogs I have not seen mentioned by 0. 0. McIntyre: a dog is satisfied with his home. His home is the best; he Is not always hinting to the pro- j prietor for more, and chasing off to the palaces next door hoping tq be adopted;* • • We hear of the Forgotten Man. If there was btit one, be could be easily relieved, but there are millions of them; every man who does not bold a public job of one kind o f another has been forgotten. A few thousand are being appointed to new public jobs daily, but it is only a drop In the bucket ... SIlerius says in his momoirs he onca knew a philosopher who was tre mendously educated. After eight years ip a university, he married, and. that nothing new might escape him read two books a day thereafter. ..This took, up so much of his time his wife and children were compelled to support him. Silerius adds that the wife of the philosopher once said to. him that the .only pleasure stie ever had out of her ■parried life was twelve years of widowhood.& 193!

One Blze gives rise to female and the other to male offspring. New polit ical and social possibilities were en visioned. !' Biologlsts-jbegan to discuss ways of separating Uie two sorts and thus settling beforehand whether children should be boys or girls. Soviet Science^1Which is particu larly active and daring In biological experimentation, has announced that the two kinds of male cells have at last been separated.

C. ;fv.::: ivv I , lfe„ News Review of Current Events the World Over Eastman Foresees Government Ownership and Operation of Railways—Progress of President’s Money Bill— American Recognition for Mendieta. By EDW AR D W . P IC K A R D B. Eastman W HEN the railroad problem of the United States is solved, it will be found that the solution is govern ment ownership and operation, In the opinion of Joseph B. Eastman, federal co ordinator of t r a n s- portation. The conclu sion is set forth in his first report, made to * -SrSDk the interstate Com- ' ' - ' & nierce commission and transmitted to Presi dent Roosevelt, Vice President Garner and Speaker Rainey. Mr. Eastman says the so lution he foresees would not be inconsistent with our theory of government. Explaining that when governments acquire private property they normally pay more than it is worth, Jlr. East man reaches the conclusion that the remedy should not be applied to rail roads now because the country is not “financially in a condition to stand the strain of an acquisition of these great properties." The co-ordinator, having set up what he wishes to be the objective of future national railroad policy, then proceeds to make recommendations within the limits of existing laws. He is decidedly skeptical of the Prince plan for consolidation of the roads, for his assistant, William B. Poland, has made studies that show the economies under this scheme would be less than one-third of the original estimates. - Most significant of the recommenda tions on consolidations is that pro posals for compulsory consolidations should be given a trial, provided that the commission and the co-ordinator find the proposed mergers to be in the public interest. Mr. Eastman throws the weight of his approval behind a method of compulsory consolidation through exchange of securities with out the use of cash. Elxecution of such a method, which the co-ordinator’s legal assistant, Leslie Craven, believes can*be accomplished,-would accelerate; the merging of eastern railroads 'into the four systems previously agreed upon. Mr. Eastman says that reorganiza tion of railroads now bankrupt “should be effected as speedily as practicable, and In a manner which will result In a very material reduction in fixed charges." He calls attention to the fact that some of the most success ful reorganizations in railroad history took place in the midst of financial de pressions. Wall Street theory has been that reorganizations should be postponed as long as possible. Many of the railroads' vital prob lems can be dealt with adequately by the carriers themselves, but “there is as yet insufficient organization and leadership in the Industry for effec tive co-operation in such undertak ings.” It is quite possible, Mr. East- "man believes, that a study of these problems “will pave the way to a much larger use of motor vehicles as an ad-, junet to railroad service, and to a re vamping and simplification of the freight-rate structure.” CARLOS MENDIETA is quite satis factory to the United States as president of Cuba in view of the fact that he has the backing of a majority of the Cuban people and apparently is ca pable of restoring or der in the island So President . Roosevelt informed the diplo matic envoys of the other Latin-Americ.in countries whom he had Summonedi to the White House.' T he President virtually in vited the other na tions to take the same Carloe course but made It Mendieta clear that his mind was made-up any way. Next day Jefferson Caffery, act Ing for ,the United States government, went to the state department in Ha vana and handed to Secretary of State Cosme de la Torriente a document no tifying the' Cubans that ’ the United States was ready to resume diplomatic relations. The Cubans went wild with-, joy and the 21-gun salute from the American warship Wyoming In the harbor was answered by salutes from the fort A Mr. Caffery will be our ambassador to Cuba, and Manuel Marquez Sterling will be the Cuban ambassador to Washington. Recognition of the Mendieta regime came from practically all other' na tions. •' President Roosevelt plans to do sev eral favors to Cuba that should make Mendieta solid with his people. The warships In Cuban waters will be with drawn. The Platt amendment to . the Cuban constitution, permitting the United States to Intervene in Cuban affairs to maintain law and order will be junked. And congress will.be asked to give Cuba a. big preferential reduc tion In the American sugar tariff. Sugar raising- Is the Island’s chief* in dustry -and for live years It has Been in a severe slump, and the resulting de pression has caused much of the. political, disturbance. DRESIDENT ROOSEVELTS money, Fbill went through the house with a rush, the vote being 360 to 40. Sixty- eight Republicans joined the obedient Democrats In supporting the measure. James R. Claiborne of Missouri and George B. Terrell of Texas were the only Democrats recorded in the neg ative. The senate received the bill and re ferred it to the banking apd currency committee, which held 'a hearing that was lively while it lasted. Prof. George Warren, author of the dollar depreciation aiid gold purchase pro gram, explained to the committee the theory of commodity price regulation by manipulation of the .currency. Then, taking up consideration of the measure, the committee beard the vig orous objections of Senators Glass, j Gore and McAdoo to several features of the bill, notably the proposed.seiz ure of the federal reserve bank gold, and the granting of unlimited financial power to the secretary of the treasury. It was confidently predicted by the administration leaders that the bill would be put through the senate un changed, but stubborn fights over vari ous proposed amendments were cer tain. The vote on a plan to limit the use of the $2,000,000,000 stabilization fund was expected to be close. Advo cates of the remonetization of silver, who are fairly numerous in the sen ate, prepared a compromise silver plan to be offered as an amendment to the devaluation measure. Qt De v e lo p m e n ts in Japan indicate that the military clique is losing out and that Foreign -Minister Eoki Hirota will be able to carry out his plans to establish more friendly rela tions with the United Statea Gen; Sadao Ara ki, who had been minister of war since December, -1931, and who conducted the campaign q g a I n s t China, has resigned ostensibly because of ill health, and has been succeeded by Gen. genjuro Haya- Kokl H irota shi. Last October Araki declared in an Interview that “if people believe the foreign policy toward the United States will change, they are absolute: Iy wrong." It was then predicted that there would be a split in the cabinet, and this'appears to have come, with the ' less warlike ministers, led by Hirota, having the upper hand. Hirota told the diet at Its opening that Japan “fervently desires Ameri can friendship" and ' added • that no question exists between Japan and the United States that is intrinsically difficult of solution. I Gen, F. T. Hines DLANS of the American Legion to * ask congress for more liberal treat ment of veterans have stirred up. a row in Washington. The Legion is urging enactment of r -mm a four-point program _ ‘ j to cost $80,000,000 a * year. Gen. Frank T. Hines, administrator of the veterans’ bu reau, thought this fig- I 3M BH ure was too low, esti- n K flj mating the cost-at a K illP -considerably higher i Jflr total. The Legion ^ ' j[ representatives de clared the government estimates were erro neous and by infer ence accused General Hines of ul terior motives and lack of integrity. In'a letter to Edward A. Hayes, com mander of the Legion, Hines de nounced the criticism of his estimates as wholly uncalled for and said Hie Legion's own 'rehabilitation committee had admitted they : were: more nearly correct than its own estimates. Meanwhile the President bad an nounced new modifications of his ex1' ecutive regulations concerning pay ments to disabled war veterans, the changes adding more than $21,000,000 annually. There were intimations at the White House that Mr. Roosevelt would seek to persuade the Demo crats In congress not to go beyond this liberalization. O R A FT and favoritism have been S* rife In the use of CWA funds, ac cording to the numerous complaints that have been received by President Roosevelt dnd Administrator Harry L. Hopkins, and audit of the books has been ordered In many localities. The unfortunate state of affairs was ad mitted by the President, who thus forestalled the revelation of the facts by congressional committees or Re publican organtzationa' At the same time he made it plain that be was standing’ firmly behind Mr. Hopkins, the ousting of whom was tentatively planned by a group of house Demo crats. More than 4,000,000 persons were given Jobs by the CWA and Mr. Roose velt is asking for an- appropriation of $350,000,000 to carry on the work to May 1: but he Insists that the CWA organization he abandoned on that date according to his previous plan. Protests against this course. In con gress and all over the conntry, have been numerous and loud. Tt is now considered likely that after May I, continued employment for more than 2,000.000 of the CWA workers will he found’In seasonal, employment, public works and a revival of industry. Senators Nye and Borah, who have been attacking the NRA on the ground that its codes fostered monopolies and tended to ruin small business con cerns. won a.concession from Admin istrator Johnson. The general agreed to the establishment of a board of. out standing citizens to which small man ufacturers and other business men can bring their complaints of ruinous oper ation of the codes. / • AU’the code authorities have been .summoned to meet in Washington Febrtiary 15 to consider code re visions. CThAT recovery outlays can be end- A ed by June 30,1935. Is the belief of the President, and he gave expression to this when he announced his ap: proyal of the ,bill extending the tife of the' Reconstruction Finance corpora tion for another , year. He enjoined Jesse Jpnes,chqlrmap'of thin.R..F. c., not to withdraw; more than $500,000,” 000 from the treasury in the next fiscal !year, except with - prior Presidential approval. CENATOR HUET P. LONG of Lou- fc-J isiana sustained another severe blow in the New Orleans Democratic mayoral primary, which is equivalent to an election. The “Kingfish’s” candi date, John Klorer, was soundly beaten by T. Semmes Walms- Iey, the present in cumbent and now one of L on g’s bitterest foes. There was a third candidate and Walmsley did not obtain a clear major ity, .put. Klorer an nounced that he would not force a run- His chief issue In the race was a drastic reduction in elec tric rates In New Orleans, and as the present city administration has prom-' ised to bring this about, Klorer said he would take it at its word. The campaign for the nomination was exceedingly stormy with pros pects of violence that did not develop when the day came. Walmsley and Long in their speeches denounced each other without reserve, and the mayor promised to follow the senator to Washington, if necessary, and give him a good thrashing. Having won the fight at the polls, he probably will abandon this project, though he and his organization have pledged them selves to “exterminate” Huey from public life. : T. Semmes Walmsiey off primary. JOHN H. McGOOET, for almost a quarter of a century Ihe big .Turn- many boss of Brooklyn, died of heart disease, and his demise ,probably means 'the end of. Tammany's ,rdoml- nation of the Democratic party In New York, at least for a time. It was expected that a leader satisfactory to the supporters of President Roosevelt would be selected to succeed McCooey. Another once notable political leader passed away when Edward J. Brun- dage of Chicago'committed suicide, presumably because of financial/ trou bles. Highly respected as a lawyer and a man. he formerly was prominent in the Republican party In Illinois and had been attorney general of the state..

Warren of North Car olina, Democrat chair man .of the committee on accounts which directs the affairs of the restau rant. Mr. De Priest, hearing of this, was exceedingly wroth and insisted on demanding a special investigation to determine by what authority the com mittee “controls and manages the con duct of the house, restaurant, and by what authority said committee or any member thereof Issued and enforced rules or instructions whereby any cit izen, of the United States is discrimi nated against on account of race,' col or, or creed.” • CAUL VINSON, chairman of, the- house naval affairs committee, an nounced that his committee was about- to introduce a b'U authorizing a $380,- 000,000 five-year ship construction pro gram; and Assistant Secretary of the Navy Henry L- Roosevelt gave out word that the President would throw the full support of the administration behind legislation designed tO' bring the navy'up to_treaty strength.

'© by Western Newspaper Union. * * Washington--The President’s move, now sanctioned by congress, to pro- 1 vide us with a dollar Means that has a purchas- Higher “cenS by comparison with the dollar that has been our medium of circulation so long has caused about as much con troversy in the National Capital as anything that, has been done under the New Deal. Nor is there, at this time, any possibility of either side giving up In their arguments, for it must be said frankly that there is merit on either side of the proposition. Mr. Roosevelt has elected to adopt a course that means roughly the es tablishment of prices for everything you sell at levels that approximate the range of 1926. At the same time, it means that roughly everything you buy will be proportionately higher than the prices that have obtained during the depression. Thus, It must become readily apparent that raw ma terials, such as farm commodities, for example, are going to return more to ,those who are the source of that sup ply than they have been receiving lately. Coincidently, everything that the farmer buys will have jumped up In price. And in between, we find the individual who lives by the sweat of his brow, the so-called white-collar worker of the office and residents of towns or cities, who will pay more’for everything, and without any percepti ble addition to their income. The theory that has been advanced by those who support the President’s plan is that it will start a larger re turn of cash to the farmers and that, when such a result is obtained, an extended expansion will take place In the general cycle of business. In other words, it is their contention that the agricultural industry constitutes a key- that will unlock the door of a more prosperous era. On the other side of the argument, one hears the insistent contention that nothing has been gained actually by reducing the value of the dollar, as measured by gold. Assuming that there will be the restoration of 1926 price levels, say opponents of the President’s course, what will have been gained, for the farmer when the things he has to buy are increased In price and the buying power of the millions who live In cities, towns or villages has been reduced. And it cannot be denied that after all the farmers’ mar ket is In /those areas.'-It is equally true that wages never keep pace.- with- increasing prices and the natural .w suit of this disparity, is to force the residents of urban communities to cut down on their purchases, even If .that entails reduction of the food they buy. They cannot buy If they do not Have money. * * * . What has happened to the dollar, Itself, by the President’s action? The answer is, !’nothing.” Fight Over That is correct if Money one cons>ders on1J the physical dollar of silver or dollar In paper currency.- But the effect of the action is the bone of contention, and from what L have read of this nation’s political history, anybody can be assured of a red-hot- argument over proposals for tinker ing with our form* of money. Mr. Roosevelt has done it, however, and he moved so fast that there has been argument after the fact, rather than before it was accomplished. For that reason, It appears certain, you. will hear arguments of a seriousnature, and maybe a few fist fights, over money questions through, several elec tions to come. To get back to the dollar again: The President asked congress to prescribe the limits of the devaiuization, or to say it. another way, he asked congress to enact legislation (for. which It Is responsible to the people, of course), that will let him proclaim a new dol lar value as measured in. terms of gold. He told congress that the upper limit should be sixty cents and the lower limit should be fifty cents. The old dollar was rated as worth 20.67 grains of fine gold. The minimum, or fifty-cent dollar,' would be. worth just half of that amount of gold and the slxty-cent dollar would be proportion ately more. When the terms fifty-cent dollar or stxty-cent dollar are used here, they are for purposes of com parison with the long-established dol lar that was valued at 20.67 grains of gold, and. gold is the accepted basis of international trade. Whatever America does, however, does not alter that basis, and consequently the new Roosevelt dollar, assuming' it stands at 10.34 grains of goid, will be worth just half as much in foreign purchases as the former dollar was worth. ' So, as I stated above, there has been nothing happen to. the physical cur rency. The revaiulzation has been manifest only in the effect You can Hiange a dollar bill Into two fifty-cent pieces, or four quarters, or ten dimes or twenty nickels or one hundred pen- nies. under the new' scheme aswell as ib»r°mKBut When ybu chanee fDatdol- -arJ nto commodities, a pair of shoes, a shirt, a dress or a suit of clothbs^- “ tt £ or 0ut t0 Increase prices as. Mt. Roosevelt contends—the result will be.plainly apparent th ? VmiaVpa^ nt ^ st anyone thit the full force and effect of the Presi dents action will not be wholly mart- test for some time. Cohditions have .to adjust themselves. But the spon sors of the new arrangement for money have not been able to explain to me why the artificial boosting of prices may not lead to ultimate evils. I mean by that to inquire why, if the prices are started upward, we may not expect to see them reach a level that is disproportionately high, a level that will have the same effect upon you and me, In our daily buying, that drained our resources during the World war.» • * The legislation affecting monetary matters which the President asked congress to enact in- Treasury eluded authority for H oldsAllGoldkImt *? ta^eKhe1 g"Id that the Federal Re serve banks have stored up. It amount ed to approximately $3,700,000,000. AU of this gold now becomes the prop erty of the treasury. That agency of the government, therefore, possesses all of the gold for monetary purposes that there is available in this country. When the treasury has taken it over, it will pay the Federal Reserve banks in gold certificates, yellow backs of the type that used to be In circulation. But the irony of the thing is that the reserve banks cannot “cash” those certificates. It must simply hold them, awaiting the pleasure of the treasury because they are to be redeemed at the pleasure of the treasury. Of course, the reserve banks will be allowed to use them as they used to use gold. Federal reserve notes can be issued with the uncashable gold certificates as the collateral, instead of gold.' The^reserve banks, therefore, simply had to obey the decree of the federal government and turn In their good gold as every one else, individ uals or corporations. The federal government is going to use two billions of the gold taken from the reserve banks to establish a “sta bilization fund.” Simultaneously, the secretary of the treasury has been given authority to buy or sell interna tional exchange. That is, be can buy British pounds or French francs or German marks, or he can sell dollar exchange or buy dollar exchange. Money from the stabilization fund will be used. The purpose' of this is to bring about a balance between the amount any na tion pays the United States and the amount paid by the United States to that particular foreign country. By that method, no gold would have to be . transferred, or only small . amounts would change hands. Thus, it is claimed, tlie new value of the dollar will be maintained at what amounts to an even trading worth insofar as foreign . nations are concerned. Of course, It is not actually the nations that are concerned, but the business of those nations that makes interna tional trade, causes the sale of wheat or-cotton or corn or hogs and the pur chase of coffee, of sugar, of novelties or the hundred and one other items. No one seems to know how much it will cost to maintain the dollar on a stable basis as measured in interna tional trade. When the President pro vided for a two-billion-dqllar stabiliza tion fund, he apparently was guided by the size of the British fund which was created for exactly the same pur- • pose, namely, protection of the British pound from being made a currency that nobody wanted. • • * . Another phase of the monetary pro gram upon which Mr. Roosevelt has launched seems to : Credit - warrant discussion. Control Tbe new legislation has the effect, I am told- by authorities, of giving the treas ury the greatest power It has ever held In the matter of credit control. It has taken over this power from the Federal Reserve system, which was created under,the Democratic admin istration of Woodrow Wilson, to pro vide a flexible currency for business. Its purpose was to,make certain that as business expanded and Its need for more currency developed, the Federal Reserve banks could supply it Wheth er that purpose has been destroyed, authorities inform me it is too early to telL But from all of the fear that is evident In some quarters, there must be at least some threat of dan ger. V ; I have been told, too, that the leg islation almost makes a central bank of the treasury. If that be true, the treasury will be able to tell the Fed eral Reserve banks, , to -.some extent, how they shall run their affairs, how high or ■ low . their' rates of discount shall . be,.-.Perhaps .that does not .seem important; perhaps It appears to be far removed from life In a small town of . In a city, but it is of direct conse quence to..the little general store or the larger department, store, or the hardware 'dealer or the druggist, or any other business. The discount rate more frequently than not determines the : Interest rate which your local business man must, pay for money he borrows. He .must figure the interest as a part of his business cost, and hdd that>to the price we pay-for the things we buy.

Tells About Crossing Yadkin On Ice. “This weather is hot near as bad as I have seen and experienced it,” declared W. M. Marler, one of Winston-Salem’s older and best known citizens, Tuesday .morning. He then proceeded to tell about the kind of winter weather encountered in this part of the state during bis boyhood and young manbooddavs. He recalled that in 1883 he was coming from Yadkinville to Wins ton Salem aud that when he reach ed Conbrads ferry, across the Yad kin he discovered that the river was frozen over. Fearingthat the ice was not quite thick enough for him to walk across on it, he went up to the home of Mr. Conrad, owner of the ferry, and secured a rope. This was thrown over the-wire.used for operating the boat. “ When I reached about half, way across the stream that rope refused to slip any farther,” said Mr. Marler. “Know ing it was necessary for me to reach Winston-Salem that day, I was.puzzled to know what to' do Finally some one on the Forsyth side of-the stream called to me to come on, saying that wagon teams were crossing on the ice. ” It might be added that no time was lost by Mr. Marler in finishing his trip across on the ice, which was several inches thick . Mr. Marler’s story' is a reminder of one related several years ago, by C. W. Snyder, now field man for the Junior Order United American Mechanics, ^ lie bad.. driygn/ Jils. pony over iu -Yadkin or Daiyie counties to attend a Jhnior-Order council meeting. While over there the rains descended and the Yadkin River rose to the top of the bridge, in fact .in some places water was beginning to flow over the top of tbe bridge Fearing that it might not be safe to drive across in his buggy, he left the turnout at the home of a friend near the river. However, he was determined to come hotne that Sunday morning. He crossed the stream on '.he bridge in a trot. When he reached this side, some one wanted to know of Charlie why be was running. “Only because I couldn’t fly,” was the 'reply of the man who was . at that time slightly frightened and breathing faster than normally.— Twin City Sentinel..

The following is from the Hamlet News-Messenger: - - ‘’There have been many who have criticized the Government for Lend ing money,to tne farmers for the purpose of crop, production on the theory that the loans would never :be repaid. These critics feared that politics would enter into that trans action and that sooner or later, upon demand of the huge number of debtors, there would be a Congress, which for political considerations, wouid attempt to cancel the indebt edness and thus allow each congress man to curry favor with hi,s con stituents who owed the money and indirectly purchase their political support when he ran next time. “The record of repayment, how- 1 ever, shows that the farmers have I been doing their best to pay. these crop production loans. In some states the payment is more satis factory than in others, but generally, the farmers who have received these “advances” from the Federal Gov ernment Lave endeavored repay the loan. In. doing.this the farmers are acting sensibly because if the loans are not repaid it will only be a ques tion of time-before the Government will entirely discontinue its efforts to provide a financirg agency .to help them produce - their- crops. The farmer’s own interests for the future require that be act honestly and faithfully towards the Government, repaying his debt according, to bis agreement.” • Politics Threatens CWA Success. ^ By Bruce Catton • There is. something, rather omin ous about all these reports of graft and double-dealing in operations of the CWA. The have been widespread en ough to cause Department of Justice agents to gel busy, and the.- story they tell isn’t a pretty one. Public officials in some localities calmly have put themselves on the CWA pay rolls; in others.they have connived at a, racket whereby CWA men had to fork over part of theii- pay; in others they have passed out jobs precisely as as rapacious as £j rapacious city machine hands out; plums at the city hall. - >; Part of this ,is due to local politic cal conditions, and part of it may be due to the federal administra tion’s failure to proceed sharply enough against the spoils system. There stillare too many men who she in government jobs only a new opportunity to reward deserving party workers. But, whatever the cause of it. the is to raise grave doubts/ about the working out of the vast programs now being put into effect at Wash-.; ington. / We don’t know ~ yet how far some of these-programs are going t6'go or how long they are going to last. ManypeOple arecdnyihced that some, at least; of these govern ment projects are profoundly - un wise and ought to-be abandoned!.-- ,But hbwever opinipn may-rrundn those respects, one thing is obvious: Since we are more or less 'com mitted to a trial of a vast extension of activity by the central govern ment, that trial ough to be as busi ness like and straightforward as is humanly possible. If it fails, it ought. to fail be cause of its own inherent contradic tions and not because of political ineptitude. What we are getting now is a discomforting hint.that our/politi cal machinery is not robust enough to carry the' ioad. If ugly graft, favoritism, self seeking and plain, everyday inefficiency cannot be kept out of the operation of these projects, they have small chance of succeeding. No chain is any stronger than iis weakest link: it is beginning to look as if the ordinary variety of politics is the weak link in the chain upon which the administra tion’s experiments are pulling. If that link gives way, the experi ments are very apt to flop. Unless we can root political self ishness, stupidity, and chicanery out of such activities as the CWA1 we will lose °ur chance to test thdse activities upon their merits. ! J Not a New Idea. ; “Borrowing money for the pur- Iipose of briuging back ‘recovery’ if not a new idea,” writes Zeb Greei jri-the Monroe Enquirer. “ When Asheville - and Buncombe count} put on this sort of recovery pro gram in 1927 they borrowed en ough money to put nearlv every Ibody directly 'and indirectly on th< Jpavroll.

It would be too tedious to rpemtion 'the smaller ones. Busi- ness 'certainly picked up around Asheville while all this borrowed money was being poured into the Channels of trade there.

IN ADVANCE • J I OO SIX MONTHS, IN ADVANCE - S SO Convicts, booze fighters, politi cians, office-holders and bootleg gers are supposed to be barred from GWA jobs-or positions. Things have come to a pretty pass in North Carolina when the Governor of the state violates the speed and traffic laws. How can he expect others to observe the- laws that he violates. • So far as we can learn noinvesti gator from Raleigh or Washington has arrived to make any investiga tions as to who is 'holding CWA jobs—their past history or their po litical affiliations : Politics is beginning to warm up in Davie. There are faint rum blings from various sections of the county. As warm weather ap proaches the political pot will begin to boil at a .lively rate. — The people of Davie county are anxious to have a fair this fall. No reason why the Davie County FaiT Association shouldn’t come to life and stage the biggest fair in the .history of the countv next fajl. Befote voting for any man for any public office, we are going to find out how he stands on the pro hibition question. We are not go jpg to vote for any man who is in favor of legalized liquor—not if we know it. Solicitor John R Jones is scour ing the hills and hollows in Wilkes county gathering evidence in the Childers murder mystery. Here’s hoping that, our Solicitor will be' able, to clear up this mystery before the roses bloom again. The price of- cotton has gone to around 12 cents per pound, but the sad part of the.story is that practi cally all of our cotton farmers had to dispose of'their crop last last fall while the price was but little more than half what it is today. Sinnersarenot theonly ones who refuse to pay their honest debts. "We have a- few preachers, elders, deacons and stewards who have treated us .much worse than the Tilest siuuer, when, it comes to pav ing their just dues. - Can a person get to heaven who buncoeshis fel Iowrnan here on earth?

Want A Fair This:Year. The people of Mocksville and Davie county are very anxious that the Davie County Fair Directors meet in the near future and make plans for the revival of the county fair, which w.as suspended for 1932- 33 on account of financial conditions With farm prices higher than the past year or two, and with hund reds of people at work on- Federal Aid projects, it is thought, that conditions will be verv favorable tor a fair next fall. With times better, good seasons and fair crops, there is no reason why Davie shouldn’t resmrect the fair. If you are interested tell the fair officials so that they can get busy and call a meeting of the directors and stockholders. D. J. Lybrook is president, J. W. Cartner and J. C.

CHAPTER V—Continued —11— Rocky had let her go as suddenly as I Ie had seized her. “I don’t think I care at all about kissing you,” he re-. I lorted. Still tingling from the contact of his lips, slie started for the door. “Before I I go I want you to know that I’ve I aerer known a more rude, more boor- 1 1st, more impossible person than you. I From the very first you’ve beeD aw- I fall As soon as you came home you i lmrst into my room, without even, the courtesy of knocking and without I a word of apology! You assume that I’m perfectly crazy to have you for a I husband.” She seized the back of a I chair. Her face was white; “In the I first place you’re the most conceited I young man I've ever met! And after that you’re just plain ordinary, con- I temptible, rude! I don’t know your I Doris! I don’t believe you even have i wife named Doris!” Jocky stood with an amused smile. “What do you say we have dinner, now!” "Dinner!” “les—dinner. What do you say we come out of the hysterics and have a little food instead? I apologize for everything. I’m sorry. You’re right. I am in a terrible mess, and you were sweet to help me out by not telling my father and mother about it.” He hesitated. “Will you forgive me?” Kocky knew how to get around her defenses. Feeling this, Doris’ anger turned on herself. “You had no right to kiss me like that,” she said sulkily, “lou’re married.” He sighed. “God help me.” “Why?" “I was just thinking that when my family does meet the real Doris they won’t be nearly so pleased. I owe yon something for being so nice to my Parents. You certainly did the job Doris hired you for well.” Iou still think Doris hired me?” His lips twisted in amusement. “To oc fIHite frank it seems the alternative to your being a member of the crlm- r]asscs> which seems very un-kely.” He pune(j a heap of card- “Md boxes out of an easy chair. - I wife is a very untidy packer, bit down." But Doris had turned to the desk J was looking at the framed picture a girl. The face was familiar. She was excited. Was she going to remember something? “Who is that? oa- Slie knew. “That’s the girl on stole my money in the Biltmore.” bhe spoke involuntarily. Bocky answered eagerly. “When?

I was ,talking to her and I left the room for a minute. When I ,came back it was gone, and so was ghe.” “How much was It?” “About nine hundred dollars—a little more.” i Rocky whistled. “That explains many things. Look here, wejve got to be frank with each other. IiU layall my cards on the table.” He pushed a soiled pink .mule off a chair and sat down. “Don’t you agree?” ‘T don’t know. Tell me about Doris.” His voice was low, emotional. “I can’t, tell you what I've gone through, worrying about Mother and Doris. It was cowardly of me to go abroad and leave them together—at least that is what I tried to do. But until I saw how a different kind of girl might fit in at home, I”—his face twisted as he paused to. keep his voice on its even level—“I hadn’t real- Ized—” 'T think I understand,” said Doris. “Yes—yon would if you met Doris." “She was—very pretty. I can see that a man might find her attractive.” Rocky made a gesture of dissent “It was a ghastly mistake. It’s hard to explain, but to-me, marriage was nothing. I didn’t connect it up with Mother and Dad. or think of it as any thing but a rather personal incident in my life until she-told me we were going to have a baby. Then I sud denly woke up to the significance of the whole thing—the way it fitted In with Mother and Dad—” be broke off—“I expect you’re thinking what an awful ass I. made of myself-over it” . Doris said, “Well, I should think you. would have told your family more about It as tt seems you had been married for some time.” -Rocky flushed. 'rYou see I got mar ried on impulse. I can’t explain it Then—but when I thought the baby was coming it was different Twanted Doris to change and be with Mother.” He looked at Doris wistfully. “G—d, I got married just the way rTd buy a suit of clothes, or order myself a din ner. Everybody I knew was married and divorced, and remarried to each other—” “But I still can’t understand why you would go abroad without intro ducing your mother to your wife—or about the baby or—’’ “Doris and I had a row the morn ing that I was sailing. Doris wanted some money. She wanted a thousand dollars. I wouldn’t give It to her. Then she said she had to have It be cause she was going to have a baby. It sounded pretty fishy now that I look back on it, and I thought—well— there’s no use telling what I thought, but I wasn’t going to give her a thou sand dollars and leave her alone to do what she pleased if she was In that condition. So I called up Mother,; fixed it so Doris wouldn’t have a; cent' unless she went with Mother—and sailed.” Doris sighed. “You can be mean.” “I suppose so,” said Rocky. “Where do yon suppose she is now?" “I don’t know. I can’t believe she’s having a baby. You don’t know Doris. She isn’t the kind that has babies. And well—the way she told it—I be lieve It was just a stall to get money out of me. She denied It while I was phoning Mother, but of course I wouldn't take any chances.” - “So you thought I was a girl Doris had hired to take her place."- “Doris is d—n resourceful. She-gets her own way, and she doesn’t care much how she gets it.” He smiled his friendly disarming smile! and looked expectantly at Doris. “Now will you tell me how the blazes you got there 7” CHAPTER VI It would be a relief to tell some body. Doris closed her eyes. “You’re worn out,” said Rocky. ‘Tm a terribly self-absorbed ape ,You ought to eat something.” 'Tm all right” He pulled his chair closer to her. She drew a long "breath, wondering, worrying. Half an hour earlier she would not have thought It possible that she could confide in Rocky. But his friendliness made her former atti tude impossible She looked at him -wistfully. "Listen, couldn’t , you eat some’ thing?” - She laughed faintly. “You’re hun gry yourself, you old fraud. I’ll go out and have supper, though, if you like.” He grinned. “You read me like a book. But you honestly look fagged. I’m going to have something sent up from Reubens. They’ll send anything anywhere any time it seems.” He went to the telephone. She watched him as he gave the number. After all, she could not go on this way forever. She would have to tell someone In or der to find her home. “Would you like roast chicken? Lob-" ster?” * - • “I’d love chicken. Say, Rocky !” "Yes1 Baby!"1 “AU right I will tell you!” He raised his eyebrow^ nodded. “O. K. Spill everything. Just a min ute until I finish here.” But It was not' until the food had come that she did find. the courage to tell him. Meantime she had bathed and was feeling much better. Several openings for the confession had . gone ‘by .but each time panic seized her. Meantime Rocky -was hungry, and very friendly. He was-trying to make up for his former unkindness, it seemed to Doris. ' “From Ihe way you talked while I -was telephoning for this mess of ,vita mins.I thought you had made up your mind to tell me all,” he said. "I- have.” , - - : -« Why don’t you shoot?"‘Tm afraid you won’t believe me.” “Well, have a shot at it” She drew a long breath. “Begin at the beginning,” said Rocky “and re member I don’t bite Bind I don’t sting. But aside from the fact that fm prob ably dying of curiosity, don’t tell me if you don’t want to.” "Y ou are decent Tve got to tell someone, and you’re the .first person I’ve met who wouldn’t think I was ab solutely crazy if I told the truth." She cupped her chin in her hand and went one casually, "You see I’ve lost my memory. I lost It quite suddenly, and I don’t know where I came from. I don’t know who I am, or even what my name is.” _ -• Rocky was looking at her with ,his jaw dropping slightly. “The h—I you say!” She nodded, smiling a little at his astonishment . “Then—my—Lord—maybe you didn’t know whether you were married to me or not?” Doris smiled ruefully. "I was rea sonably certain as soon as I saw you —you didn’t leave me In much doubt.” “I guess I was pretty brutal." Then she told him everything, un able to evade his quick questioning. He found out how she had been riding in a cab with a man she hated, how she' had left him, gone to the Biltmore, been robbed of her money and met the kind little woman who had said she was her mother-in-law. As she fin ished she took off her wedding ring, and showed him the inscription on the Inside. “So you’re married, too,” he said thoughtfully. “To somebody I hate—or at least I think so.” Rocky considered. “It ought to be easy enough to find out who you are. You look to me like a girl with a large devoted ' family. Probably all out looking for you? Didn't you look In the papers to see if there .was any thing about a missing girl?” “Your family doesn’t take any pa-- pers.” _ - “H—I, that’s right One of the old eccentricities.” His eyes were ten der. ““Say, this is a d—n shame. I’ll make inquiries at the police station, and we’ll find out who you are in no time.. Then if you don’t like your husband—yon don’t have to go back to him, do you?” Doris felt frightened. “I -don’t know. There was something, dreadful —you know once I was listening to the radio, and something was said, in the news of the day I think it was. that brought it all back to me—but only for a second, then I fainted. It seems as if there is something so aw ful In my pait that-I just don’t dare to remember It.” Rocky reassured her. “Oh that isn't very likely. Doris. You’ve been badly shocked. Perhaps you were In tin ac cident." . ; • “Eve thought, that if- I icoujd see the .papers .perhaps, there would be something in them that would help me. to remember.”. “That’s an Idea. 'Supposing we go out now and buy some papers. It’s much cooler now.” He walked to the long windows and looked down into the street. “We cap ride around or something.” He looked at her over his. shoulder. “Would you like to go and see some girls waving their legs around In the theater? Please, let’s.” She laughed. “Of course; I’d love to.” “You’re sure? You’re positive we oughtn’t to sit around and be tragic this evening?” He jumped up. “Then we’re off. I won’t be two shakes.” But it was later than they thought when they emerged finally on the street; They rode over , to Broadway In a cab, buying the WorldiTelegram from a newsboy. In the lobby Doris had a moment to look it over but she found nothing that roused her memory. “I can’t get over the way you im pressed Father,” said Rocky during, the intermission. “He was absolutely nuts about you!” He looked down at her happily. “You didn’t find anything in the pa per?” “Nothing seemed to rouse any echo. But. I did see one comforting thing— an advertisement by a Reno divorce lawyer saying you can now get a di vorce out there in six weeks!” “Really? Yes, I remember they did pass a law ‘Hke. that last’ year. Well, that means you can get rid of the man In the cab if he should turn out to be yonr husband. And speaking of men, there are two men In the back of the theater that can’t take ffieir eyes off you.” - ... “Where? Perhaps they know me?” Doris screwed around hopefully, but the curtain was rising. As they came out of the theater the street was filled with people In evening dress, the women holding their short gay jackets about them. “You know, everybody is staring at you,” said Rocky, teasingly as they stood beside the curb.. He took her arm as he spoke and she felt a warm protecting glow which seemed to come from his tall body. (TO- BE CONTINUED.) Oil on the Waters One of the minor troubles of the world is the nuisance of the oil on the surface of the navigable waters, caused by the discharge from oil-burning, steamers. It is destructive to the -fish and birds alike. The birds’ plumage becomes soaked with the oil and it in terferes with their progress and in ad dition to this the oil drifts into the bathing beaches. .This problem has been successfully met in the'case of a California yacht club whose mooring basin , was found to collect this oil. A raft with a paddle* wheel driven by. a •motor;was placed at the entrance-ol' the basin and its operation kept the oil from drifting In! IMPROVED .

YOUNG PEO PL E AND ADULT TOP IC—Jesus M eeting H um an Needs. In chapters 8 and 9 of Matthew are grouped a number of miracles which exhibit the power, of Jesus Christ over the chief foes of men—sickness, sin, satanlc power, death, and storms. It is fitting that they should be grouped here following the .laws of the king dom, for they show the king’s power to administer the affairs of the king dom and produce within his subjects the graces of character demanded by these Iawa It would make the lesson too long to attempt to consider all these miracles. Therefore certain of the most outstanding-should be selected. . I. Jesus Heals a Leper (8:1-4). L The dreadful disease, (v. 2). Lep rosy was the most loathsome and hopeless disease'known. In the Jewish ritual it was regarded as a symbol of sin. Just as leprosy was incurablo by man, so only the Divine Physician can cure sin, 2. The leper’s faith (v. 2). His cry was most pitiable, but his faith was strong. He fully believed that Jesus was able, but was uncertain as to his Willingness, to heal him. '8 . Jesus’ power (v. 3). He put forth his hand and touched the leper, bidding the disease to depart, and in stantly the man was cleansed. II. Jesus Heals the Centurion’s Ser vant (8:5-13). I. The disease (v. 6.). It was paralysis. In paralysis the victim is helpless. I ' 2. The centurion’s humility (v. 8). |He first sent the Jewish elders and then his friends (Luke 7:3, 6 ) because he felt his own unworthiness. The condition of this servant was so grave ’that his master brushed aside timidity and personally appealed to Jesua 3. The centurion’s faith (w. 8, 9). He believed that if Jesus would but speak the word his servant Would be healed. His faith was so remarkable that JesUs marveled because it was not like anything he had discerned Jamohg the chosen, people. i. '4. V The wonderful' power of Jesus ’(v. 13); He did not even need td see the'helpless man and touch him, but needed only to speak the word and it was done. III. Jesus Heals Peter’s Mother-In- Law-(8:14, 15). This woman was sick of a fever. Jesus was invited into Peter’s home to heal her, and upon his touching the hand of the patient the fever left her. IV. Jesus Casts Out Demons (8:28-34), After stilling the tempest, Jesus crossed to the other side of the sea into heathen -territory, 1. Met by two men possessed by demons (v. 28). These men were in a desperate condition (Mark 5; 1-17, and Luke 8:27). So fierce were they that no one could safely pass that way. Many today are demon possessed and their number is increasing (I Tlm- 4:1). , 2. What they knew about Christ (v. 29). They-knew that he was the Son of God and that he had come to destroy the devil and his work.-Among demons there is no doubt as to the deity of Jesus Christ and the judg ment to come. 3. Limitation of the devil’s power (v. 31). Although the devil Is mighty In power, he cannot even enter a hog without God’s permission. 4. Christ’s power to deliver from the devil (w. 30-32). The demons quailed before, him, not daring to dispute his power, but begged permission to enter the swine. [ -V. Jesus Opening the Eyes of Two 8 lind Men (9:27-31). L The intelligence of faith (V. 27). They cried unto him as the Son of David which showed they recognized him as the promised Messiah. The prophet bad foretold such to .be the works of the Messiah (Isa. 29:18, 35:5, 41:7). % The persistence of faith (v. 28). These poor men had heard of the won derful works of Jesus. This wrought In them a desire to be healed. They, .therefore, followed him along the way crying -out, for help , 3. The challenge of faith (v. 28). In reply to his challenge they gave him a definite answer. • 4. The triumph of faith (w. 29, 30). Their faith brought them ,into touch with the Lord of life, who opened-their eyes. - O u r Giving M easure : God’s great purpose in wanting men to give to him is. that me may be en abled. to- give more abundantly to them. It is impossible for a man to give anything to God.that does not come, back to the man a tliou sandfold. . Tact . ,The, observance of tact, the univer 'Sally lauded, depends chiefly on the. omission of . ’certain .actions,- or even more often of words. To say the right thing at' the right time to the right' person Is perfection. ... Immortal Figures i*» the Field of Science Who are the world’s greatest scien tists? Nineteen shields, containing nineteen names of outstanding sa vants, ornamented the balcony of the grdat hall of science at the Century of Progress exposition, at Chicago last summer. Those selected and their fields are:' Biology, Aristotle; mathematics, Archimedes; mathematics, Euclid; astronomy, Hipparchus; anatomy, Leonardo; physics, Galileo; atron- omy. Huygens; physiology, Harvey; mathematics, Newton; chemistry, Lavoisier; chemistry, Dalton; biol ogy, Darwin; medicine, Pasteur; physics, Faraday; physics, Helm holtz; physics, MEixwell; chemistry, Mendelejeff; : physics, Rowland; physics, Hertz. In commenting on their selection, Prof. Henry Crew, head of North western university’s department 'of physics, said: “We do not list these names as the nineteen greatest scientists In history.

C- News Review of Current Events the World Over Money Bill Passes, Dollar Is Devalued—Secretary PerHns Proposes Federal Tax for Permanent Dole Funds— Polish-German Peace Treaty. % By EDWARD W. PICKARD YIELDING by a large majority to the President’s demands, the sen ate passed his New Deal money bill, Inserting only a few noncontroversial amendments to which the house readily agreed. The adminis tration’s victory was decisive and was pre ceded by the rejection of two major propos als which were obnox ious to Mr. Roosevelt and his financial ad visors. The first of these provided that control of the $2,000,- Senator Glass 000,000 stabilization fund should be given to a board of five instead of to the secretary of the treasury. This was defeat ed by the votes of 50 Democrats, three “radical” Republicans and the single Farmer-Labor senator. The sec ond amendment offered was put for ward by the silver bloc and was beaten only by the assistance of 17 Republican senators, for 28 Demo crats were recorded In favor of it and the vote stood 43 to 45. It would have provided for the purchase and re monetization of silver. The final vote on the measure was 66 to 23. One lone Democrat had the nerve to stand out against the ad ministration and uphold by his vote his convictions, although several oth ers had opposed the bill in debate. The man who was true to himself was Carter Glass of Virginia, secretary of treasury nnder Wilson and co-nnthor of the federal reserve act. Senator Gore of Oklahoma was paired against the measure hut did not vote. Sena tor McAdoo of California had done a lot of opposition talking but quit with that and went into the "aye” column. All of the Independent Republicans and Shipstead, Farmer-Laborite, sup ported the bilL . Though the money bill has been summarized before In this column, it may be well to state again its main provisions, as follows: The treasury is given title to all the nations monetary, gold stocks, includ ing $3,500,000,000 held by the federal reserve banks. The President is authorized to re value the dollar at 50 to 60 per cent of its present statutory gold equiva lent. Coinage of gold is declared at an end. The metal is to be held In bul lion form In the treasury as backing for paper currency. The $2,000,000,000 stabilization fund Is created out of the increased value of the gold accruing as a result of de valuation of the dollar. It is placed in the sole charge of the secretary of the treasury and he is given author ity to expend it In virtually any trans actions lie may deem necessary for stabilizing the dollar abroad. ACTING under the authority con ferred on him by the new money law, President Roosevelt proceeded to devalue the official dollar to 59.06 cents by proclaiming a reduction of the dollar's gold content from 25.8 grains nine-tentbs fine to 15 5-21 grains nine-tenths fine. At the same time the President announced the government would buy gold at a price of $35 an ounce. The change In the dollar’s gold con tent, the first to be made in a century, will not be immediately appreciable to the genera] public; but it Is the ex pectation of the administration that it will bring about a general rise of commodity prices and that this will Induce an increased volume of busi ness, which will enable producers to make more money and therefore to raise wages. Only time can tell whether- this theory is correct or fal lacious. Shortly after the President signed his proclamation, the treasury an nounced that a new form of currency was being prepared by the bureau of engraving to take care of the problems created by transfer of title to all fed eral reserve bank gold, to the treasury. Gold certificates, the same size as cur rency now In circulation, will be used. Instead of the absolute promise to pay in gold carried by gold certificates pre viously issued, however, these will say: "This is to certify that there is on deposit In the treasury of the United States of America (blank) dollars -In gold, payable to the bearer on demand is authorized by law.” PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT’S admln- A . istration has proposed to.-.congress legislation that would bring the stock and commodity exchanges of the coun try under the rigid control of the fed eral government. The President's In terdepartmental committee has made suggestions for the federal licensing of those markets: and the creation of a governmental agency with extraordi nary powers to regulate their opera tions. The banking and currency com mittees of the senate and house have these recommendations under consider ation as a basis for legislation soon to be introduced. The interstate commerce committee of the house is working on legislation, also proposed by the Interdepartment al committee, that will make the coun try’s communications systems subject to similar regulation by the federal government OUTSTANDING In current foreign news is the fact that Germany and Poland have signed a peace pact that is to endure for ten years. The treaty stipulates that during that pe riod under no conditions is force to be used in relations between these countries. The successful negotiation of this pact is considered a great tri umph for Joseph Lipski, Poland’s minister to Germany, and for Foreign Minister Joseph Beck, and the jubilant Poles assert that their nation must now be considered one of th'e great powers of Europe. • They- are especial ly proud of the way In which they have blocked the plans of Maxim Lit vinov, foreign commissar of Russia, who was trying to combine with Po land for a protectorate over the Bal tic states. They appeared to be go ing along with him but were secretly conducting the negotiations with Ber lin. According to European correspond ents, one reason for Germany’s rad ical change of policy toward Poland is Warsaw's disinclination to become In any way involved with the problem of Austria, which is expected there to turn Nazi in the near future. Polish statesmen privately state Poland does not oppose the Austro-German an- schluss (union). They claim once this is accomplished the question of ob taining a port on the Adriatic sea would become more important to Ger many than the return of the Polish corridor. Announcement of the Polish-Ger man treaty created a sensation in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, all of which countries have quarrels with Germany and had been relying on Po land’s support Sec’y Perkins PERMANENT dole funds In all the states, created mainly by a new federal tax upon all employers, is the latest plan of Miss Frances Perkins, secretary of labor. Her scheme, which Is rather complicated, provides for the levy ing of. the tax on the basis of employers’ pay rolls, beginning on July I, 1935, and calls on all state leg islatures to set up unemployment funds in each common- wealth. The employ er would be given the choice of paying the full tax or con tributing voluntarily to the fund in bis state. The plan Is being put into the form of a bill to be Introduced in congress. Co-operating with Secretary Perkins are Senator Wagner of New York and Representative David J. Lewis of Maryland. “The proposed federal tax bill,” read the formal announcement, “will work In such a way as to promote the speedy passage of state unemploy ment Insurance laws. “The federal bill will not define what kind of laws the states shall pass. Wisconsin is the only state which now has an unemployment in surance law, but measures are pend ing in many other states.” Secretary Perkins went to Indian apolis where the convention of the United Mine Workers of America was In session, and told the men that the only permanent solutioD.of the unem ployment problem is shorter working hours. ' The miners in a hot debate de nounced communism and re-adopted sections of their constitution which bar members of the communist party from union membership, CtEDERAL JUDGE ALEXANDER *• AKERMAN In Tampa, Fla., de clared the agricultural adjustment act unconstitutional, saying it is “so full of holes you could drive eight yoke of oxen-through it.” He issued to a group of citrus growers an injunction to prevent the state control committee from enforcing proration orders. Offi cials In Washington refused to com ment on the judge’s decision. CTATE directors of the National « Emergency council met with Ad ministrator Hugh Johnson and .were amazed to learn from him that Secre tary of Labor Perkins had already ap pointed many of the labor advisers In their offices without consulting them. ■ Nathan Straus, Jr., of New York. and George Creel of California were among those who questioned the propriety of this course. "I am not here to discuss the Wisdom of the matter,” was the general’s brusque reply, “The appointments al ready have been made.” 'T 4HREE daring Russian aeronauts .a ascended in a stratosphere balloon to the record height of 67,585 feet, ac cording to their radioed messages, and then perished when their balloon crashed 350 miles southeast of Mos cow. , Their instruments were de stroyed, so their claim to a new rec ord cannot be established. HAVING read of speeches In the Japanese parliament predicting that Japanese auxiliary vessels would outrank those of the United States by 1936 and that Japan would withdraw from the proposed naval conference of 1935, our senators prepared to rush through the Vinson naval construction bill which had beep passed by. the house. It calls for expenditures of $475,000,000 and $507,000,000 over a five year period in order to bring the United States forces up to treaty strength. In Tokyo Kenkichi Yoshizawa, for mer foreign minister, proposed to the house of peers that the 1935 confer ence be abandoned, expressing fear that Japan would be forced to wreck it He and other Japanese statesmen however, reiterated that there was no conceivable reason for war between their country and the United States. Minister of War Hayashi also denied that Japan was making preparations for war. with Russia, and said the Japanese army in Manchukuo would not assist in any attempt to extend the boundaries of that state. Russia has a chip oh its shoulder, and the convention of the all-union Communist party wildly cheered Stalin when he warned everybody “not to poke their snouts into the Soviet po tato patch.” The dictator added: “It is a mistake to think an ambi tion to wage war against the Soviet union and share its territory is held only by Japanese military circles. We know very well that it is shared by some political circles in Europe.” This last remark, it was believed was intended as a reference to Ger many. SOLUTION of the Lindbergh baby kidnaping and murder may come as a result of the arrest in Chicago of Verne Sankey, former South Dakota ranchman who started on a. career as a kidnaper two years ago. He readily admitted that he “snatched” Charles Boettcher of Denver and Haskell Bohn of St. Paul, but denied any connection with the Lindbergh tragedy. How ever, the authorities are in possession of various facts and clews which they believe may link him. with that case. Two Illinoisans, Frank Souder and Gale Swolley, were taken to the Joliet penitentiary to begin serving life sen tences for the kidnaping of James Hackett of Blue Island. Indiana authorities were preparing to try, for the murder of a policeman in East Chicago, John Dillinger, bank robber and desperado, who was cap tured with several of his gang In Tuc son, Arlz. The outlaw was rushed by airplane to Indiana to prevent his extradition to Wisconsin, where lie was wanted for robbery. CAMILLE CHAUTEHPS and his French ministry didn’t last as long as had been expected. Without, waiting for a vote by the chamber .of ■ deputies that would oust them, the cabinet members all handed their res ignations to President Lebrun, being unable longer to withstand the storm of attacks resulting from the Bayonne bond swindle. Former President Gas ton Doumergue was entreated to ac cept the premiership, but refused on the ground, that he is too old to head the government In such a critical time. Herriot and Daladier, both former premiers, were the next possibilities, but it was feared both bad too many political enemies, though they are re spected and have dean records. How ever, Daladier, undertook the job of forming a new government. WHILE President Roosevelt was celebrating his fifty-second birth day with relatives and close personal friends In the White House, many thousands of his fellow dtizens were enjoying parties, balls and other en tertainments arranged to mark the an niversary. These took place In hun dreds of cities, towns and villages all over the country, and the proceeds will be turned over to the Warm Springs Foundation for Victims of Infantile Paralysis. THOSE who attempt to graft on the Public Works administration are go ing to have a hard time getting away with it, according .to Secretary of the Interior Ickes. Ad dressing the conven tion of the Assodated Genera] Contractors of America in Wash- _ Ajr -j-, g tngton, the secretary fH iy i warned them that col lusion on bids for contracts or mate rials, skimping on ma terials and doctoring of specifications so as Sec-v lekes t0 elimlnate competi-” ickes Jion wouId be unC0T. ered by the government agents and punished. He pointed to the indict ment of LieuL Gov. Nels G. Kraschel of Iowa and an associate as a sample of what cheats may expect "I am Dot pronouncing-judgment In this case,” said Mr. Ickes. “If those men now nnder indictment are inno cent they have nothing to fear. If a jury of their neighbors find them guilty; they will pay the penalty. “There are two points to this story and that is the reason I have told it to you. One is that the Public Wbrks administration will pursue any charge of graft or corruption or chiseling re gardless of where the .trail may lead. The other point is that even an office holder of high degree does not have enough political pull to escape the out stretched-hand of justice if he offends against the law.” Criminal prosecutions in six cases Involving complaints of graft In the Civil Works administration were or dered by the division of investigation of the Public Works administration. Three of the cases are in Kentucky,, one In Maryland, one In Arkansas, and one In Indiana. .©byWeaterIlNewspaper.UIll•■• 6 National Topics Interpreted by Willjam Bruckaft Washington.—Increasingly since the end of the World--War, cabled dis- patches from Eu- Right or rope have told of Left Wing a c t i v i t i e s of the “right” wing politi cal parties, and of “blocs” . and other divisions of political opinion. The ex pressions have become so common that newspapers and other. periodicals do longer enclose the words “right” or “left” In quotation marks. In other words, those two terms have come to be understood as meaning conserve tlve or radical thought, respectively, and with this change has come an ap plication for them to our own politi cal set-up. Lately, I have been inquiring of many political leaders for their opin ions as to the direction President Roosevelt may be expected to head In his administration of affairs of our nation. The real way to judge, it ap pears, Ib by classification of his ad visers. If they are of the left wing, it is to be assumed that he is aligned With the radical group, and if his ad visers are to be catalogued as leaning to the’ right, the conservative element must be considered as dominant in the affairs of the nation. . AU of us, recognize that there are certain of the President’s policies, thus far developed, that are decidedly radical, as measured by the course of the nation In previous years. Yet, the men and women with whom I have consulted point out that among his pol icies are those that have been fostered traditionally by those who call them selves conservative. — I found the same results In- in quiries about his advisers. Some of them long have been known as radi cals; some of them have stood with the conservatives, and with it all some of his advisers heretofore have been known as Republicans, some have been found In the two major political par ties at different times, and some are old-time Democrats. Tt is apparently a new political party, but still under the Democratic label. * • * When one takes a look at the Pres ident’s policies, the things he has done . under the guise of Let Business leading the country Manage Itself out of the depres sion, an attempt -to analyze his leanings to the ‘right or the left becomes more difficult For example, the Democratic party, long has fought against trusts, big combi nations, big business generally. Yet, it was President Roosevelt who pro jected the NRA into our economic structure with an appended statutory provision that anti-trust laws shall not operate against corporations and busi nesses, that agree to operate under the codes bf NRA. The Democratic party always has talked about protecting the little man, a small business. But the NRA has been attacked by such lib erals or radicals as Senators Nye of North Dakota, Norris of Nebraska, and Borah of Idaho, as being a death sen tence for the man with a small busi ness. On the other hand. I asked In a good many places whether the principle of NRA was revolutionary In the sense of a general change In our economic life, and everywhere the answer was that actually NRA proposes to give business more power to manage it self. This Is the attitude of General Johnson, NRA boss. The • codes, he says, are for the purpose of having business manage, Itself by men of Its own choosing with only a little gov ernment supervision. With the agricultural adjustment administration, the AAA. answers to my queries-were different Most ev eryone views the AAA as being wholly revolutionary, as compared with our traditional methods-of dealing - with such problems. It is. Indeed, an out right overturning of our established principles. Under the principle of AAA, the. federal government is lay ing special taxes on special classes for the benefit of a special class. Whether you agree that the nation's agriculture must, be saved by that manner or whether your conclusions hold such methods of taxation to be discriminatory, the fact remains that the AAA Is based on class taxation. In supporting that legislation and in giving Secretary Wallace and Admin istrator DavIs a free hand to develop the new scheme. Mr. Roosevelt Is re garded by the political students' as having gone as far to the. left as the most radical could desire, short onlv of actual government management ofthe. industry. Tt ls only Decessary to think of crop control,’government pur-, -chase of pigs to prevent surpluses on the markets and the payment of bene fits to farmers for signing crop reduc tion agreements to realize the extent to which the President has gone, • * * The Tennessee, Valley authority is another agency that might be held A S tepto [bereft h??>,StiL t0 .» . .. ,ne lert by the Pres- th e L e ft dent That Is pure- •v BOrernment ownership and government participation In business. It is to be „ v that the TVA not only Is go*ngT o D^ dnce nitrates for the Jarm erl butTt Is going to produce electricity for the fanners and the residents of ^ 9 and cities. Farther, it |s going ffeetri u.Sel,lnR ecInipment that uses electricity, such things as washing ma chines, electric irons and other equip ment for the household. Attention also might be called In connection with the TVA to the fact that It will per mit little or no competition In the areas where it'operates, and If it fails to make expenses the taxpayers of the whole country share the burden. . Mr. Roosevelt’s monetary plans, his projected-devaluation of the dollar, are .radical, and yet they have had the sup port of some of the conservatives, with sharp criticism coming at the same time from the ranks of radicals. For example, Senator 'McAdoo, of Califor nia, one of the chief supporters of the Roosevelt candidacy and a man of rec ognized radical leanings, was one of the main critics against the Presi dent’s program of seizing the gold , held by • the federal reserve banks. Senator McAdoo is a former secretary of the treasury, and stood solidly with Senator Glass, a Virginia Democrat and also former secretary of the treas ury, in fighting that provision of the bill. . . Then, we have seen the spectacle of Senator Arthur Robinson, an Indiana Republican, who cannot be called con servative by anybody, in'the role of broadcasting a. warning that. Mr. Roosevelt wants to be-a dictator like Mussolini, of Italy, and Hitler, of Ger many. The Indiana Robinson has as sailed President Roosevelt In, vicious fashion. During these same days when the Indiana Robinson was point ing out how he could see the Presi dent moving towards a ” dictatorship, there was Senator Joe T. Robinson of Arkansas, an old-time, conservative Democrat serving valiantly as the President’s leader in the senate. The Arkansas Robinson has managed all Rooseveltian maneuvers in the senate, whether, they led to the right or the lefti He has jumped on the Indiana Robinson for his attacks on the Pres ident’s plans that were held by the Indianan to be leading directly to dic tatorship, and In the same breath has avowed his conservatism. And so it is In the house of repre sentatives. There is Speaker Rainey of Rlinols, always known as a Demo crat of radical leanings. Along side him la working Representative Byrns of Tennessee: as Democratic leader in the house. Mr. Byrns has been cata logued as conservative through his long term of service. Among the house and senate committee chairmen. the same mixture may be seen. ’ '* * * One may carry the analysis into the cabinet and find much the same cir cumstance. Secre- A s to the tary Wallace, of ag- Cabinet riculture. a son of a former Republican secretary of agriculture. Is qf the left wing, but he cannot go along with the radical ideas of Inflation. He says that won’t solve the problems of the farmer. There is "Big Jim” Farley, the postmaster general, a conservative In training and In belief, and Cordell Hull, secretary of state, who was nev er ..inclined to any of the new untried schemes or dreams of the left wing of his party. . Secretary Ickes, of the Interior de- partmenL was a campaigner for Theo dore Roosevelt as a bull moose candi date. His wife is a Republican mem ber of the Illinois legislature But de spite his previously accepted left-lean ing, Secretary Ickes Is regarded In Washington as conservative In most respects. So is Secretary Perkins, head of the Labor department and the only woman in the cabinet Vthough on labor questions she has been more to the left than to the right Secre tary Mbrgenthau, now in the treasury, cannot be catalogued otherwise than a left winger. Mr. Morgenthau’s own philosophy, however, is quite subordi nated, slnce the President’s chief inter- ,est In recent months has been on lines of monetary revision and the treasury secretary simply carries out orders/ Going further among the President's advisers, we find Lewis Douglas, direc tor of the budget an Arizona copper magnate,, almost directly tied In with “Wall Street,” as New York’s finan cial interests are termed, and Jesse Jones, of Texas, chairman of the gi gantic Reconstruction Finance corpor ation, a banker, a big business man. a conservative in almost every sense. Then, when you get Into theiist of professors who have been influential In administration affairs, you face a I flock of - left-wing adherents. Profes sor Tugweli. an assistant secretary of agriculture, actually would remake our economic structure along his own pro fessorial llhes; Professor Warren, who has stood closer to the President than any other, although not In an official post, is credited with being responsi ble for. the monetary revision policy— the 60-cent dollar, which is now upon us, and Dr. WlUIam L MeyerA of CJor- neU, now head of ,farm credit adminis tration, has been, of the left wing for years.. Balancing , off these, there are dis tinctly conservative men In the cabi net Uke Secretary Swanson, of the navy, Secretary Dern of war, and some of their subordinates who. neverthe less, exercise important executive functions. •• AU of which leads certainly to one conclusion, that there Is in this -New' T * 1. “ *dJ ^ re tato n«w realms of administration.

Without going into all the technical details of the cal endar’s early history, suffice it to tay that In 35S2 the Julian calendar year (estab lished by Julius Caesar and modified somewhat by Augustus Caesar) was ten days ahead of the true solar year. So Pope Gregory XVm ordered that October 5 be regarded as October 15, thus dropping out 10 days, and also made some changes in computing leap years. But it was not until 1752 that the 'Gregorian year was adopted by Great Britain and her colo- aiea Then 11 days were dropped between Sep tember 3 and September 14. Twenty years before this a boy, to whom had been given the name of George Washington, was born in England’s col ony of Virginia in North America. That event had actually taken place on February 11 under the old calendar system but when the Gregorian calendar was applied and the calendar pushed up U days it made his birthday February 22. So that is why we celebrate on that date. Where was George Washington born? Just as he had “two birthdays” so did he have “two birthplaces”—that is, if we listen to the asser tions of different “authorities”—and just as a matter of U days of time separates his “two birthdays," bo does a matter of approximately a mile of distance separate his “two birthplaces.** Back In 1923 there was organized in Wash ington, D. Cl, by Mra. Josephine Wheelwright Rust, a descendant of John Washington, the orig inal Washington emigrant to this country, and by other interested persons an association known ns the Wakefield National Memorial association Khich was incorporated under the Inws of Vir ginia for the purpose of restoring Wakefield, tha house in which Washington was supposed to have been born. Through the generosity of John D. Kockefeller1 Jr.. and other donors a large part of the.,planta tion of Onpt. Augustine Wasliington was pur chased and improvements made on it. In 1930 the federal government appropriated $80,000 for the removal of the granite shaft, erected In 1896 to mark the site of Washington’s birthplace, and fnr the construction of a replica of Wakefield and the Improvement of the grounds. All of this was established as the George Washington Birth place National Monument and placed under the Jurisdiction of the national park service. But during this time there was advanced the disturbing theory by several specialists In Wash ington that the association had improved the krong site as the birthplace of the Father of His Country I He was not born at Wakefield on Hie northwest bank of Popes creek, so they said, nut more than a mile away near the southeast bank of Bridges creek, where the Washington family graveyard is located. The association was Positive enough that it was right to go ahead ffIfli its work and the federal government seemed satisfied. But at the same time that disturbing theory would not die. ir has remained for Dr. Charles.0. Paullin of the division of historical research in the Car- oegie Institution of Washington to make a search th contemporaneous documents and to uncover Wdence which seems to settle the question con- c usiveiy and to prove that the Wakefield site actually was the birthplace of Washington. Pnmr Sdlr~v ot the Investigation which Doctor Ilin made, the evidence which he found and cnnc'USIons which he reached from them are Cam* • ln a raeent Press release from the of ti,-816 lnstitutIonl upon which the remainder is article is based. He says, in part: f the^p "rSt *and owned Hy the Washingtons on *** Creek-Bridges Creek peninsula was Tr55I1J ot ttavIfi Anderson In 1664 by John fjtji 'D8ton tliI the emigrant and great-grand- 150 a 0eorSe- On this tract, which contained of R1-Vires and 'vhicl1 iay 011 the southeast side grave' 8eJ creek- Jotln established his home and of h' 'Vhen he dIed in 1677, John (H)1 one I10 's .sons-, inherited the Anderson tract or the P.aBtation- Twenty years later it passed to deam Jo*ln ttlI at his death, and at her ^th t0 th°ir son John (In). fence ot John tlI another sbn, Law- Pear thA D r of 0eorSe- inherited lands Bridie, I .tomac some “ iles northwest of the heir, ?n 1695 Lawrence purchased of ffOot side , JvId lastoP 40O acres on the north- et his hmn, dges creek adjoining the lands In leas tliA J°hn 0n Lawrence’s death fell to Co„f 1Ston tract and other near-by lands George, Augustine Washington, father of TJs marrled ip 1715 and his first child the following year. In 1717-1718 he purchased of Joseph Abbington 150 acres of the Popes Creek-Bridges Creek peninsula, lying on the northwest side of Popes creek and including the site of the recent improvements at Wake field. The tract may have had, a residence on it, for the purchase included “all houses, edi fices, buildings, tobacco houses, fences, orchards, (and) gardens.” I have discovered no document stating what Improvements, if any, Augustine made on the Abbington tract, or giving the date of his re moval to it. That he was living there on Febru ary 23, 1726, we know certainly by a “deed of uses” of that date made by himself and his wife, Jane, of the one part and Lawrence But ler and George Eskridge,'of the other part in which occurs the clause, “whereas the aforesaid Augustine Washington is seized In fee simple of one parcel! and tract of land, being the land where he now lives, which land he the said Au gustine purchased of-one Joseph Abington.” Six years before the birth of his illustrious son he is therefore known to have been living in a house on the Popes creek side of the penin sula. He is also known to have spent the last years of his life first on the Hunting creek (Mount Vernon) plantation In Prince William county and later on the Strother plantation near Fred ericksburg. Three of his children were born after he left Westmoreland county. Almost every year between 1733 and 1739 has been given as the prohnble date of his removal. I have established the date as certainly between March 25 and No vember 18, 1735. It is therefore conclusive that Augustinewas living in a house near Popescreek between 1726 and 1735; his son, George, was born In 1732. The early maps locating George's birthplace near Bridges creek and the numerous writers locating it elsewhere than near Popes creek are certainly erroneous. After his purchase of the Abhington tract Au gustine Washington continued to increase his holdings on the peninsula. In 1725 He bought 215 acres on the Potomac river, and in 1734 25 acres of lots. Islands, and marshes at the mouth of Popes creek. In 1742 by an exchange of lands with his cousin, John (IV), he obtained a tract on the southeast side of Bridges creek which in cluded the graveyard and the ancestral heme- site, and for the first time all of the Popes Creek-Bridges Creek peninsula was in the pos session of a single Washington. i The ancestral home-site at Bridges creek, therefore, could not have been the birthplace of George, since his father did not own it until 1742, The date of its abandonment as an ances tral residence is not known. On the death of Capt. Augustine Washington, April 12, 1743, the Popes Creek-Bridges Creek plantation fell to his son CoL Augustine, who lived and died there. George Washington, who regarded the geneal ogy of his family as of “very little moment,” wrote of CoL Augustine, his half brother, that he “lived at the ancient mansion seat in West moreland county, where he died, and was in terred. In the family vault.” CoL Augustine represented his county in the House of Burgesses from 1755 (or 1754) to 1758. On his death his widow Anne (Aylett) Washing ton and her children, Including her eldest son* William Augustine (1757-1810), who inherited the plantation, continued to occupy its residence. The widow is described- by ber illustrious brother-in-law as an “heiress" and In May, 1771, when he visited her, as of “Pope’s Creek,” thus locating her residence as on or near that creek. William Augustine Vfashington was Uving in the house when it burned.’ When he died In 1810 it fell to his son, George Corbin Washington. The possessions of George Corbin Washington did not include the whole of the peninsula in herited by his grandfather, CoL Augustine Wash ington; In 1743. It did include the plantation known at this time as Wakefield, first so called by WIlUam Augustine Washington, according to the authority of WilUam Lanier Washington, who died In 1933. The designation is known to have been'In-current use as eariy as 1773. In 1813 George Oorbin Washingfon^then a res ident of "Georgetown, D. C., sold to John Gray of Stafford county, Virginia, for 6,229 pounds and 10 shillings the Wakefield plantation, contain ing 981% acres, Cogether with two other small tracts. Later Wakefield came again into, the pos- Church of Historic Memory St. Peter’s, Bermuda, Oldest English House of Worship in America, Has Associations Dear to the Hearts' of American People. St. Peter’s parish church, In Ber muda, is the oldest EngUsh church in America. It was in this church that the beautiful Nea of Tom Moore’s poems was married in 1803, one of her sons later becoming rec tor of the church. Nea was Hester Louisa Tucker and became the wife of WUliam Tucker. Marrying a man of her own surname brought no ill to her, thus frustrating the old su perstition. Several months after her mar riage, Tom Moore, the Irish poet, arrived in Bermuda as registrar of the admiralty court there, St. George’s at that time'being the most heavily fortified position in the west ern hemisphere. Moore met Mrs. Tucker, who was only sixteen, at a ball given In his honor by Gover nor and Mrs. MitcheU in the gov ernor’s palatial home. He was Im mediately smitten with the beauty of the 'young lady and did not hesi tate to teU her so. “BeUeve Me If AU Those Endearing Voung Charms,” still one of the world’s best loved songs, was written about her by the young Irishman, and one Sunday morning in old St. Peter’s they both remained in the church after the conclusion of the service and Moore went to the organ and sang his new song to young Mrs. Tucker. At the time the Tuckers Uved In the “Alley of Limes,” as MoorecaUed it. The marrow street is how called Cumberland lane. The ruins of the old Tucker house are less than five minutes walk from St Peter’s church. Rev. Alexander Richardson was the pastor of the church during the Tom Moore-Nea romance, which was no more than the admiration of a poet for a beauty who filled him with poetic inspiration and the pride and satisfaction of a young woman who was singled out for fame by a man who had already achieved it. Reverend Mr. Richardson was a picturesque figure In St. George’s, which is more Spanish than Eng lish In appearance. He was pastor of St Peter’s, with the exception of a lapse of five years, from 1755 to 1805, quitting in 1772 because bis salary was five years In arrears, but .returning in 1778 ’:pon the payment of all arrears to him. Dr. R. L. Tuck er, son of Nea Tucker, was pastor from 1839 to 1SG8. Part of the communion service of St. Peter’s dates from 1625. The large chalice, the flagons and the paten, were the gifts of William IH in'1697. The font was brought there In 1782, but dates back to 1550. The three candelabra are among the most beautiful furnishings of the church. The one near the altar was installed in 1817. The one to the left was found by the present pastor among discarded material in the bel fry. The third, hung in the nave, once diffused its light in the old gov ernment house. The altar and altar rail are of hewn cedar, built by the colony’s first governor, Richard Moore, who wits a ship’s carpenter. They are as old as ,the oldest portion of the church. The weather vane, which tope the clock steeple, once showed how the wind blew on the premises of Wil liam Pitt, famous British statesman. In the cemetery surrounding the church on three sides are many in teresting tombs. One holds the ’.re mains of an American warrior, Rich ard Sutherland Dale, son of Com modore Richard Dale of Philadel phia, who was wounded in the en gagement between the United States frigate President and a squadron of British ships on January 15, 1815. The stone “records the tribute of his parents’ gratitude to those, in habitants of St. George’s whose gen erous and tender sympathy prompt ed the kindest attentions to their son while living and honored him when dead.” To the right, of the church stands the William Tucker tomb, which con tains the remains of the once beau tiful Nea, known In her youth as the “Rose of the Isles.” 1.

Wilson of Anne Arundel county, Maryland, and by its gift to his son, John E. Wilson, who married Betty, a grand daughter of William Augustine Washington. Of great interest Is the following provision in the form of a memorandum found at the end of a deed made by George Corbin Washington to Gray: “The said Washington further more makes . over to the said Gray all his right and title as derived from his father, William Augustine Washington, to the marshes in Popes creek, but reserves the family Burying Ground at the Greal Quarter (slave quarters), also sixty feet square of ground on which the house stood In which General Washington was horn.” The title to the reservations passed from George Corbin Washington to' his sob, Lewis William, and thence In 1858 to the state of Vir ginia, which In 1882 transferred, it to. the federal government In .1883 the government increased its holdings by the purchase of eleven acres ad jacent to the site upon which Custis had placed the slab. In 1896 it erected a granite monument, 51 feet high, on this site, after exploring and mapping the foundations. There is no known contemporary description of the original house on the Custis site near Popes creek. The nearest to one that I have found Is that given about 1835 by an ancient resident of the neighborhood, who remembered that it was a "low-pitched, single-storied, frame building, with four rooms on the first floor and an enormous chimney at each end on the outside.” An anon ymous visitor of 1851 found the site In the “midst of a two^hundred-acre corn field, marked only by an old brick chimney, a mammoth fig tree, and a freestone slab” (Custis’ memorial). On October 31, 1878, anticipating the acquisi tion of the site by the federal government, Sec retory of State William M. Evarts with a party, which included Gen. W. T. Sherman and Charles C. Perkins of Boston, made a trip to Popes creek from Washington on board the U. S. S. Talla poosa. Sberman made a rough and not alto gether accurate map of the region and Perkins «a sketch of the remains of a brick chimney, identi fying it as belonging to a kitchen that stood' behind the house, the site of which was then bare. In 1896 the army engineer corps explored and mapped the foundations of the original house. Additional explorations at Wakefield have, not revealed any other foundations of importance on the Abbington tract That this, house is the birthplace rests upon the evidence of these, ex plorations, of the tradition that It is the true birthplace, and of tlSe chain of tacts Jhat con-.. Arms tbe evidence, and the tradition. It must be so accepted. © by W estern Newspaper Union. Read the “Ads” but don't ignore medical opinion if you want to -relieve constipation gently and safely -ta k e th e exact dose suited to your need -avoid danger of bowel strain A doctor will tell you that the careless use of harsh laxatives will often do more harm than good. Harsh laxatives often drain the system, weaken the bowel muscles, and even affect the liver and kidneys. Fortunately, the public is fast returning to laxatives in Uqvcidform. Can C onstipation be safely relieved? "Yes!” say medical men. “Yes!” say thousands who have followed this sensible medical advice: I. Select a good liquid laxative. 2. Take the dose- that you find suited to your system. 3. Gradually reduce the dose until bowels are moving regularly without assistance. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup, Pepsin is a prescriptional preparation contain- • mg senna, a natural vegetable laxa tive which relieves constipation gently and safely. Why not try it? Some pill or tablet may be more convenient to carry. But there is no “convenience” in any cathartic that’s taken so frequently, you must carry it wherever you go! W h at is th e “ R ig h t” Laxative? In buying any laxative, read the label. Not the claims, hut the contents. If it contains doubtful drugs, don’t take it. Dr. CaldweITa Syrup Pepsin contains no mineral drugs. By using it, you avoid danger of strain. . How many dimes and quartern are spent on “popular” laxatives! SyrupPepsin would save you money— and bring you real relief. W h y D o cto rs g iv e a liq u id la x a tiv e The habitual use of harsh salts, or powerful drugs in the highly concentrated form of pills or tablets is risky. The properly prepared liquid laxative will bring a perfect movement without discomfort or injury. You need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. The public can always get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin at any drug store. Aato Storage or Parking Immedi ately Adjacent to tbe Hotel. Bea* soii&ble Price*. New Bedsf Kev . Baths, Nev Carpets.

Governor Ebringbans, in his projected war on careless drivers with purpose to reduce the slaugh ter on the North Carolina highways is finding material for support in facts being developed, by the auto mobile people, inspired by the high record of death by autos on the roads. The whole blam is placed on the driver. It is a fact that the dangerous driver seems to have learned but little from the ex periences of the past. He still ex -aggerates the safety factors of bet ter cars and roads, He still cuts in and out of traffic, still'passes on blind curves and hills, still takes a shambles of deaths and injuries and needlessly ruined property. Everything that mechanical and road engineers can do to make motoring safer, is being done— an extremely small percentage of ac cidents can.be blamed on car failure or poor roails.

Barker, Prominent Leaf Dealer, Says Inequitable Federal Levy On IO-Cent Smokes May Prove Disastrous For Farmer} Urges Growers To Write Their Congressmen Disappearance of the lO-cdnt cigar1 ette from the market, threatened be cause of the inequitable federal tax, would be disastrous to Kentucky s farmers,in the opinion of R.M.Barker, Carrollton tobacco broker and a lead er in agricultural circles of the state. “I can think of nothing that would be a worse blow to the growers than for the manufacturers.of 10-cent cig arettes to shut up their shops, Mr. Barker declared. ‘ Tew farmers realize liow mucli.tobacco thcs© coinpariiGS buy and how much effect their buy ing has on the market prices. There is grave danger th at they will have to stop making 10-cent cigarettes unless the tax is adjusted.” Mr. Barkerwiii go to Washington to testify before a Congressional sub committee which has been appointed by the Ways and Means Committee to conduct a hearing on a proposal for revision of cigarette taxes. Farmers To Make Trip “Three farmers from here are going with me,” Mr. Barker said. “We’re going to do our best to explain how, from the standpoint of the grower, this situation must be straightened out. In this part of the state we might is wen stop work if the ten-center is ;aken off the maTket.” Mr. Barker is in a position which aakes it possible for him to under- tana the difficulties of both farmer ■.nd manufacturer. For many years ie was a farmer, himself, and he still ;rows tobacco. “You see,” Mr. Barker explained, 'the cigarette tax of 6 cents a pack- .ge was fixed in 1917, when 15 cents vas the bottom retail price of cigar- sttos. Ho provision was made for a proportionate tax because none was reeded. “Then two years ago the 10-cent jigarette made its appearance. The aanufacturers paid the -6-cent tax Tithout resistance, in spite of the act that it represents 252 per cent of ,he manufacturer’s net price, while ;he tax is only 126 per cent of the nanufacturer’s net price on. the 15- ;ent oigarette. Content W ith Small Gain “These manufacturers — especially Axton-Fisher Tobacco Company and Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corpor ation of Louisville—were contentwith amoderate profit and they mad e mon ey in spite of the inequitable tax. ' “But the situation is different now. They have increased wages of their workers to comply with theHRA code, rhey have a processing tax to pay. “Other costs have gone up, too.cut- ,ing their profit down to a small iraction of a cent on a package. In - :ome and state taxes have to come >ut of this figure, and I do not see low they can afford to make cigar- jttes w ith the 6 cents tax. “They can’t cut production costs md they cannot and ought not to five the farmer any less for his to- jacco than he’s getting now. Tire jbvious thing to do is to have that ;ax adjusted. Nominal Cut Asked “They know the Government needs •evenue and they are net asking for auch of a cut—only three-fifths of a ;ent. They recommend that the tax ■emain at 6 cents on 15-cent cig&r- jttes and be increased by three-fifths >f a cent on more expensive brands. “Instead of cutting the Govern- nent’s revenues, this change would Increase the tax income. It ’s a cinch ;he 10-cent cigarette will increase consumption if it were p iit on a fair footing with the 15-cent cigarette.lt’s i cinch there would be a big drop in Government revenues if the 10-cent cigarette were taken off the market entirely/ ' ' - ‘ ‘The farmer ordinarily doesn't care what happens to his tobacco after he has sold it. He doesn’t care whether it is chewed, smoked or snuffed. But here is one case where it is mighty im portant to him what happens to the manufacturer. “It ’s important to me. I'm perfectly frank about that. Last week 32.5 per cent of the tobacco I bought was for the 10-cent cigarette manufacturers. And.that week I bought 39.3 per cent of the tobacco which was sold o U the Carrollton market. Better Price On Tens “Here’s the important thing for the farmer. For the 199,095 pounds I bought for one 10-cent manufactur er, the average price was 12.28 cents. Fof 45,745 p o u n d s Ib o u g h t fo r another, the average was 10.44 cents. For the 407,490 pounds I bought for export, the average was only 7.22 cents. Thatshows what the ten-cent er means where price is concerned. ’ That purchases of the 10 cent man ufacturers of cigarettes have aided farmers was demonstrated by prices for 1931 and 1932, according to Mt. Barker. In 1931, before ten-centers had entered the field, the average price on the Carrollton market was 8:26 cents. The next year, after 10 cent buyers had offered competition to the Big Four ,the average increased to 12.63 cents. The increase for the burley market as a whole was even greater. ' Plant Would Close “I have 150 people working in this plant, handling tobacco,” Mr. Barker continued. “If the manufacture of 16-cent cigarettes were stopped, the only-thing I could do would be to shut down. That’s what it means to me. What does it mean to the farmer? "Wait just a minute. I ’ll call the warehouse and ask a couple of farm ers to come over to my office. We’ll get their story from their own mouths. And to b c sure no p artialit y is shown, I won’t ask for anyone in particular.” In a moment the two men were' there—typical If entuokians", but with that worried look that all farmers have been wearing since the-tobacco market opened. Mr. Barker explained to them the situation. “That would be an awful thing—if the 10-cent manufacturers left the market,” one of them said qriietly. “Things don’tlooktoogood, anyhow. Of course nearly everyone around here was signed up in, the crop re duction and we’re hoping that will pull us through. 12 Cents Poor Price “But ii the 10 cent manufacturers were to stop buying.that would throw the whole plan out of whack. No tell ing w hat would happen to the market.’,’ • The other man spoke upv“Twelve cents,” he said, "isn’t any kind of a price, you know. Oh, I guess we can get by onit. But it don’t hardly pay-to raise tobacco if you can’t get more than 12 cents for it. •‘‘Tobacco, you know, is the cash crop. I t ’s the only thing around here that we can Ta'ise. I t ’s the thing that we’ve got to raise and we’ve got to sell to keep going. It means shoes and overalls and fenre and fertilizer and everything else that we must buy.. “Of course K r. Barker’s-'speaking the truth when he says he’d have to close down if the 10 cent manufac turers left the market. I reckon all the rest of us would have to close down, too.” ' Farmer Can Help “Well, boys,” said Kr. Barker," it’s up to you, more or less. Congress may or may not give the ten-centers a break.-I’m going to put up a fight for them. But the farmer can do some thing, too. I wish you would be a com mittee of two to get all the farmers, around here to write to our Congress man and tell him what they think about this tax situation.” ' “How about a petition?” asked one of the farmers. “I t ’s pretty hard to get farmers to w rite letters, you know.” "A petition won’t do,” replied Mr, Barker. “Anyone can get up a peti tion. The letter’s the thing. They don’t have to be long—just enough to tell our representative to give this tax proposalsome thought. Oongress-, man Fred M, Vinson from Kentucky' is chairman of the committee that’s going to hold this hearing.lt wouldn’t do any harm to write to him,"too.” I In soliciting ‘ booster” ads for The Re cord when The Bank of Davie re-open ed, only two business firms refused _ to co-operate.

Nothing short of the itnponder ables of guardian Providence, the luck that protects, drunkards, and the inscrutable law law permitting the survival of fools . and heedless aud adventurous children have so far saved Raleigh from a skating automobile tragedy that w ill, when it "happens, provide a community horror to supplant a present easy indifierence^and spirit of lassez falre., Where marbles and basketball, leap frog, frog, football and another on the calendar of youth every two or three month-*, roller skating seems to become a craze that hits full force by periods of years. The skaters are always w ith us, but it is only now a nd then that they occur like seventeen year lo.usts to add a peculiar and poignant peril .to the always menacing traffic prob- Iem. . This recurrence is now upon us, Apparently every child in Raleigh received a pair of skates from Santa Claus. W ith the facility of the yoiing, they have mastered the technique, in speed and fancy work and all the stunts going therewith, Th the'false spring we have been having during the greater part of January they have been making carnival of the ceme'nted streets in ail parts of Raleigh.

Yet this array of skaters on the streets takes all imaginable risks. They^ de bouch from side streets onto main stems without warning. They make figures of eight ahead of lanes of cars ^They place tbeir Own lives in cheerful jeopardy and also jeopardize the lives of drivers who would cheerfully- risk their own to save theirs. - > • It looks one of those situations we call intolerable, when nothing practical appears to make it other wise. Hairbreadth escapes are of daily occurrence. Drivers' nerves are on edgfe. Police regulations are in such a case fiction. O slythe skaters foliow their own lucky hunch with never a thought in the indulgence of a natural physical exercise - made attractive by the poetry of applied motion. , - W e should be horrified if one. of these wanton pullings at the whis kers of Death that cause hearts of oulodkers to iniss a beat went the. lim it. Meanwhile, if there is any reason able precaution it is the lame one of the badly crippled parental author ity. S till, in view of their greater parental-authority. S tilL in view of thejr greater personal risk, parents might try to do something before it is too late to save the feel ings of the city, to say nothing of their far more tragic reaction to the accident that now looks inevitable. — Ralffigb Times.

Citi zens of Albemarle declare that /the state chariot passed through that town at 50 to 60 miles an hour .Slid dashed under red lights. W ith that a warrant was sent to Raleigh, for the Governor’s chauffeur. : The Governor, was of course ..embarras sed. He wasinadvertent to the in fraction, he says, -proceeding on the idea that the patrol ,was making the way clear and he had to keep up.with them. No doabt warrant's, should have been issued for the, patrolmen.

He will get along better without the escort that .is needed and would bet ter be engaged in the service for which it was designed than putting on the dog with the.Governor's car. He who is set to enforce the laws is required above all others to be meticulous in their - observance. W ith the Governor’s entourage ex ceeding speed limits and ignoring signals more harm is done' to the spirit of law observance on one trip 1 than all the reckless-can do in a week.

Hayes says that the American Legion w ill sponsor a bill for uni versal draft in case of another war. I r looks as'if 'a bill - of- th a t' kind should go through Congress like greased lightning. It is nothing but fair that a war should be fought by the whole nation instead of by a few of its citizens. It is so unfair to have some men killed in war and others made greasy fat' Biit there is a rocky road ahead for the un'- versal draft bill. The hogs who fat tened on the blood of our boys who sleep in Flanders Field w ill be there with their influence and- that in fluence has been strong enough to keep the bill shelved in the past. There are many whose business is dependent on war and more and btgger wars and their profits in time of war are huge . Wars are fought for tbeir benefit and. profit. They will oppose any bill that takes the profit out of war. The Statesville Landmark suggests that it is about time'to build some fires under our Congressmen.

One great trouble since depres si m was felt has been the disincli nation of-the bank's to lend money, and it has been the aim of Chair man Jones, of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation; to establish a situation under which the banks would feel justified in loosening-up, Chairman Jones now makes decla ration that the stabilization .of the dollar as its new level, has opened the way for the banks ' to resume lending mone'y—to -supply capital for business purposes. - If that, proves to be the case, we are out of the woods, tor a supply of cash for business purposes is the need of the day. Jones is warning the banks that if, qnder.the ,new conditions', they.refnse to lend money on Iegi1 timate security, then the Govern ment, itself, will go into the busi ness of lending, .although the Gov ernment would: not waut to be forced to become the banker ' for every deserving-borrower in the United States, He believes the hesitation of the bankers is because they.are'still suffering, .from shell shock—still Vafraid,t’ sH e further advises that, there is.no thought on part o f the Government of dictating' management, or of coercion as GWA Scheme About To Get Out Of Gear. One of the fantastical ventures of the Roosevelt administration, the CWAyhas become tne big question mark in Washington. While, the gold bi|l. the government refinancing appropriations and a host of other operations proceed along the patl - ways foreseen for them, the storiry tossed fortunes of the civil works ad ministration becomes constantly more fascinating 1 0 speculative minds. The whole history of this experi ment has been full of surprises,. At first the administration thought well of it, in a small way. No W hite House trumpet blasts announced its inception, and no great predictions were made for it. Generally, it at tracted cittle notice. Suddenly, as 4,000,000 men went to work on the government pay roll at everything from ditch-digging to painting murials on public buildings, tidings began to reaeh Washington that this-Roosevelt project was the greatest yet. Criticism of the ad ministration, which had threatened real trouble "in Congress, subsided appreciably. -And everyone said civil works had turned the trick. ' A month ago there was a reaction. People began to ask where all the" money was coming from. Protests from constituents prompted some members of Congress to strike an a titude of indignation. (Incident ally, these same members today are petioning the Whi e House prayer fully against cutting the civil works pay rolls in their home districts.) Mr. Roosevelt met the situation by announcing ho would taper off the program, beginning: in . March,, and would end it,entirely by May. That notice. But the authorized funds began to run out. The civil works adminis tration (reversing the usual process) began to shout of suspected graft and for an investigation. 'In various localities men were laid off going back on local relief rolls, embarras sing local office-holders in a cam paign year. Disturbed . President William Green of the' federation §f labor went to the White House. He left smiling, predicting it would depend on conditions whether 'the program was. abandoned by May. . Adminis trator Hopkins countered with an announcement that May remained the definite date of termination To'carry on even to May, more money was needed.' Mr. Roosevelt began writing a message to Con gress. But w.hat to say? Should the nation go oh spending like this, and could it stop if it wanted • to? Days elapsed, with the message still under consideration, Ihferentially, the situation raised a point about other portions of the recovery program. Here was a present, livingAxample of the diffi culty ,of atopping a direct govern ment benefit pavment, -once it was started What about the others? The world will be older than it is be fore that question is answered final-' Iy- ' • There is great pressure in Congress to go on with the civil works pro gram ‘‘for the present.” For once it may become .a question whether the President is strong enough to hold Congress in leash, whether he can keep up with it, not' whether it can keep up with him.

By ED HOWE rr>:IE people never Uad any sense; I I haven't much hope for the future, ,idler as to myself or others. Once ' kept a war going on thirty years. You may say we have more •ease thaD that now. I am not so ure of it. {)ur last war was eonduct- s. on so ’magnificent a scale that the world became bankrupt In four years, and we had to quit; whereas it is re lated Frsierick the Great paid for his wars as lie went along. VVlien he quit, he didn’t owe a penny, and had no pensioners to move on his capital, and L eaten to take it. Boys coming on soon supplied Frederick with more farmers; food was produced again In a rear. . • • But a war debt 00n- StaDtIy Increasing and drawing lnter- J5ti will ruin anybody. * * * I have noted that many people who annoy me, occasionally turn out to have a good deal of sense. One man sent me pamphlets daily for weeks, but finally the pamphlets were made Ioto a hook called “Toward Liquor Control’’ I have read the book. It was written by a number of rather notable men employed by the Rocke feller foundation to look thoroughly Into the problem of liquor control and make a report about it. The book is one of the best written, most sensible and important I have ever read. It includes a review of our general American shiftlessness In pub lic affairs, and which has finally al most bankrupted us morally as well as financially. I recommend the book to everyone who believes a little In com mon" sense and decency, and in pre serving the little civilization we have managed to achieve. The book is a plea for temperance not only as to Intoxicating liquors, but In everything else. We are very in temperate In our eating, In sex mat ters; in all phases of public affairs, In education, religion we must become tshamed of our intemperance, or we Ehall be humiliated before the world more than we have been lately. Kot less than SS per cent of our in dustrial workers are hampered by im proper diet; of all money spent by their families on fond, 78 per cent Is mis spent, either on improper or too costly or otherwise uneconomic, dietaries. This disgraceful percentage holds In everything else we do. Americans became so rich we reached the Coal Oil .Tohnny stage In extravagance and shiftlessness, and we must do better, as Coal OU John ny did Id the poor house. Although he said a poor-house diet would kill him, after living so long on terrapin and turkey, it actually result ed In better health; actually assisted in restoring him to sanity and indus try. • * * When I was a boy, and my father farmed and preached the old gospel, we occasionally had a horror. Once a fanner drove Into Pole creek after a rain, and was drowned. His horses drowned with him. It was terrible, but we didn't have excitement often. Once a man had nosebleed for days, and constantly grew weaker, as nothing could be done to stop it VVe all went over to look at him; everyone was excited. Once n man was bitten on the thumb by a rattlesnake. He had cut down a hick- nry tree, to get the nuts, and the ac cident happened while he was picking them up. The man put his thumb In his mouth, and sucked the poison out I tie talked about that for days. An other time a farmer came home from town drunk, and everybody ran over to his house to suggest a remedy. One woman suggested that he drink a pan of milk. She had lived in a town In Indiana, where we all came from, and knew ahont such things: and the man tot well. The Civil war was going on then. >nd an occasional soldier came home on furlough with tall tales to tell, but ke had no such terrors as I hear of orer.v morning and evening now. when set the papers.

A somewhat discouraged housewife addressed this question to an - au- thonty on matters culinary, “Why is it tnat whenever I make a cream sauce It always becomes lumpy and is thus advised: .“I can answer that by giving you the sample method which I use my self for cream sauce. I melt the but ter, remove it from the fire,'and stir In the flour and seasoning. When this is absolutely smooth, I pour In graudally, stirring, as I do so, about half the amount of cold milk called for in the recipe. I then put the saucepan back over the fire and stir the mixture until it is smooth. I add the rest of the milk .and continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and thick. I then let it boil about two minutes, stirring occasionally so as to prevent it sticking. In case I make more than two cups of white sauce at one time I heat, the milk in order to save time and the labor of stirring for a long time. It seems to me that two minutes’ boiling is long enough to produce a good flavor —that is to say, to get rid of the raw flavor which uncooked flour has. If you have plenty of time you may cook the sauce in the top of a double boiler over the direct heat, and after it thickens set it over hot water and cook ten minutes. Be sure to keep it covered during this period. “Many other sauces may be made by this foundation method. If a bit of onion is cooked with the butter and a well seasoned stock is added instead of. the milk, you will have a brown sauce which is appropriate for serving with meats. If you use water instead of milk, and flavor the sauce with lemon juice and extra butter, you will have a very good fish .sauce. If you use tomato pulp, which has been cooked with onions, a bay leaf and a few cloves and then strain you will have a very good to mato sauce. If you use three-quar ters water and one-quarter- vinegar, and season with mustard and a lib eral amount of-sugar, you will have a sauce which is particularly good to serve with ham. Ham fat may be used instead of butter. “To go back to our original redpe for white sauce,-you may make it richer and more colorful by stirring a little of the white sauce mixture into an egg yolk or two and return-' ing this to the original mixture to beat well and to heat. If you add to this Jittle lemon juice you _will have a good imitation of hollandaise sauce. Another delicious variation' of this same sauce may be made by using half cream and half milk, as well as the'egg. yolk. ' To the plain white sauce you may add minced ■ cooked onions or grated cheese, or a little anchovy or sardine paste. Tl^ese Sauces go particularly well with poached or hard-boiled eggs.” Tomato Sauce.

N IG H T N O T B E S T T IM E F O R S T U D Y , ’ S A Y S E D U C A T O R The proverb that “one hour’s sleep before midnight is worth two hours’ afterward,” usually is ridiculed by physicians. Most of them maintain that while eight hours’ sleep is necessary at some time during the twenty-four, it makes little difference when it is ob tained. A recent German investigation tends, however, to cast doubt on this medical opinion and to confirm the ancient proverb, says Dr. E. E. Free, In his Week’s Science (New York): “Dr. Theodor StockmanD, princi pal of a school in Duisburg, noticed that one of his pupils was falling be hind In school work, and was becom ing more and more iazy and sleepy. “Inquiring into this young man’s sleep habits, Doctor Stockmann found that he was studying late at night and sleeping late in the morn ing. Change of this habit so that the pupil slept before midnight and woke very early in the morning to study caused remarkable improve ment in school work and in health. Doctor Stockmann then tested the same idea on seventeen other pupils, averaging about nineteen, years OltU All turned outto;be In -betterrhealth and to do better school work when they habitually got four or five hours’ sleep before midnight and got up at three or four 6’clock In the morning to do their studying. “Two pupils who worked part of the day also fonnd themselves in bet ter health and more successful in their studies when they went to bed immediately after supper and did their school work between midnight and dawn. His observations also suggest. Doctor Stockmann reports to the German medical profession, that iess than eight hours’ sleep may be enough, at least for young people, provided all of it is obtained before midnight.”—Literary Digest. Whose Fault ? W fien a Child W on ’t Study “Kept after school I” And it isn’t the child’s fault, or the teacher’s. His mother is to blame. How can a boy get his lessons when his senses are dulled day after day by dosing with sickening purgatives? When a child’s bowels are stagnant they need help, of course. But not some drastic drug to upset the stomach, perhaps weaken the entire system; or form the laxative habit. On Here’s a boy who gets good marks, has time and energy for play. He is never ill, hardly ever has so much as a cold. When he does show any symptoms of being sluggish, his mother knows just what to do. She gives him a Utile California Syrup of Figs—and that is all. It’s a natural, fruity laxative that is agreeable to take, and its gentle laxative action comes from senna. Parents are urged- to use justthe right, parents will find a V r pure California” Syrup of Figs. happy solution of this problem: ffP j- Be sure bottle says‘California’.

She sighed. It had been such a long hard day, taxing .mentally and physi cally. She could not rouse herself to, greater effort She dozed, slept a little and woke to find him standing with ,all her luggage In the middle of the floor, a paint brush In his band. She watched him take a knife and begin to whittle her bag, on which were the initials D. V. She spoke sharply. “What are you doing?” He kept on working at it. “Better go back to sleep. Baby. You’re going to need all the rest you can get.” “Rocky, what are you doing?” “Wantonly wrecking your prop erty.” “I see that But why?” “I’m going to paint everything black. Now look. here. Baby, there are a lot of things'” you don’t understand. And this Is one of them. Turn over, close your pretty eyes and go back to sleep." Doris swung her feet over the side of the bed. “You’re crazy if you think rfti going to let you spoil my bags like that" “You spoke just too late, lady.” He began ’to apply black enamel over the Outside. “Baby!” “What?” “If you're rested you'd better go In the next room and look 'over the clothes that Doris left here Pack up In my brown suit ease. You’ll find it lying on the bed.” “This Is the queerest thing that’s happened to me yet. I must be dream ing.” She put her finger out and touched the wet black paint “What are you doing.this for?” “Just a precaution. I ought to de stroy it but Fm not Ingenious enough to think of a way at the moment I want to get started In about an hour. Get well out of New York before dawn. I forgot to mention that Tm taking you on a motor trip.to Canada. So pack up what you need from Doris’ things. You’re not to be al lowed anything of your own.” She looked at him speechlessly. He put down his brush. “You are going to let me take care of you?” She said nbthing. “Aren’t you?” “Yes.” “Well, then—” “Can’t I know anything?” He stood close to her looking down. “Only that Fm doing it all for your welfare" -_ The silence between them was sweet. They did not look at each other, but it was as if he had offered her some thing precious and she bad accepted when she said, “All right.” “Good girl. Now listen: pack up everything you need with what you can find of Doris’ things. Take noth ing of your own.” “Rocky?” - “What, Nuisance?” * “I can’t help feeling you’re being rather sweet” ' He opened her bags and began smearing paint over the dainty brushes and mirrors Inside “Control your feelings then; darling, and get to work.” 1 “But Rocky, why must you—if you’re going to leave It here anyway?” “Doris might, come back. There’d be h—I to pay if anyone found this luggage Look here how long do you intend to stand there and argue with me? You go pack. I’ve sent for a basket of food and the minute it comes—we beat it ” ' She was bewildered. Either she must trust him completely or—and he was being so nice doing it all for her. She turned finally and went to look over Doris’ things. She sat on. the bed for a minute, her ,elbows on knees; fists jabbed into her cheeks. What could this mean? There must bare been,something more In the papers. Rocky didn’t want her to know. It was. sweet of him. He thought she was too ill. She got up suddenly and began to pack, wonder ing in a mist of romantic thoughts if she’d ever be able to stop thinking about him, now that she had begun to see what he was really like. There was a rap on the door. , It was a boy with the lunch basket. Rocky came In, ready to' start “Rocky!” she started, but there was earnestness and gravity In his face He held something In his hand. “Can you be ready in a few. min utes?”'he asked, his lips white. ,She rose .rather shakily. “I guess so.! She-would have to go with him. ’ “But why?” she insisted. “You said you’d take care of me and I—” “H—I, -Doris,” he -said, exasperated, “can’t you trust me?. You’ve got to trust me. This is all for your good. I'm no slacker any more than you are. Let’s" give each other a break." “Did you save those newspapers?” she asked- suddenly. He shook his head. “But I’m well enough to read them now,’? she said: urgently. “I know you’ve been afraid they'd shock me— but I’m all o v er that silly faintness now. Won’t you get another for me?" He shook his head again. “Not now. We ought to be going.” Doris looked at him ruefully. “Why won’t-you let me see a paper?” “Doris, snap out of It. You are go ing. I’ve made all arrangements. It’s the only way out You’ll see what I mean, later. Come on,, get your things!" He stood up with a bright forced smile - Doris too rose. She looked up at him, a steady glow In her eyes. “Rocky, you1 haven’t given me any rea son.why I should.go. You won’t even answer my question about a paper. Is there something that I ought not to see?” He didn’t answer. “Because if you think there’s some- thing there that will shock me. -that’s just what I-need. If I can be shocked hard enough, I’ll remember everything. Don’t you understand T She saw that he didn’t, and put -her hot palms light ly to her temples. "Please Rocky, get me a paper.” He looked down at her with a con viction that was beyond stubbornness. “It’s no use for you to keep repeating that request,” he said. 1 “It’s utterly impossible.” He took out his watch. “You have five minutes In which to dress for the street. And oh yes, I nearly forgot,”\he held out a pair of dark horn-rimmed spectacles. “I found these for you,” Doris stared at then “What for?” she asked. “For you to wear—if »ou like” he said. “But I don’t like.” Doris was definite. Rocky smiled pleasantly. “Take them anyway. We might be doing some fast driving—they’ll protect you from the wind.” Doris tossed them onto a chair, {the was perfectly sure' that Rocky would pick them up again, and force her to take them, even wear them, i f . he chose. He was getting his way about a lot of things. > ' C H A P T E R V I I As they got Inio the street Dons noticed that Rocky’s manner was very strange He pushed her into the door way, and looked cautiously up and down the dark street. “Come on,” he whispered. “What is this?” said Doris pettishly. “Hurry up.” Rocky had adjusted the top on his roadster. Doris climbed into what was now a glass-enclosed coupe “Aren’t we going to be rather hot?” “Can’t have the top down. Not un til we get away from New York any way.” The engine was purring. Once more Doris fancied that Rocky looked about fearfully. “You’re acting like the girl in Tange’s. What is all the excite ment?” “What-did you say about a girl In Tange’s?” Doris told the story of the odd, frightened giri who pushed her into a closet. “She recognized you.” “Do you think she did?” “Oh yes. Yes, of course. And she was a good sport I ’d like to meet that girl and give her a party. She prob ably saved your life!” “Rocky, this is ridiculous. You can’t be mysterious like this. Do you mean to tell me you know what made that girl act that way?” "Certainly I do.” “Then don’t be so aggravating. Tell me” They had skirted Central park and were going up Lenox avenue. Rocky pausing at a red light smiled down on her. “Warm enough?” “Oh, yes.” “Light me a cigarette will you?” She gave him the lighted cigarette. “Quite the little domestic wife, aren’t you?” Somehow the sting had gone out of all his jibes. She could no longer feel any antagonism toward him. His mockery seemed to contain a secret tenderness. Dawn broke as they left New York. Doris sniffed the iridescent mists that rose from the fields. ' “Oh Rocky, look, clams!” A truck was driving up to a garish roadside resort. Men were unloading clams fresh from the sea. .‘‘Can’t stop.” “Oh, Rocky, please, they look so de licious.” - Rocky slowed the car. “If-you’ll . promise to stay in the car and let me bring you some—” he began. “Why are you such a tyrant? I think you’re just, showing off.” “Want some clams?” - “Of course I do.” “Under those conditions.” “Oh I suppose'so.” “A ttagirl!” - He got out of the car and slammed the door decisively. “Look here, you better put on those dark glasses.” ■He strode over to the stand. DorU put on the glasses. She knew they made her look hideous. But the morn ing air, the feet of the fresh new world all about, her, and above all the sense of companionship with ..Rocky made her light-hearted. Whatever there was to worry about was unknown to her. ■ Rocky came back with a large clam loaded down with horse-radish.' “It’s still alive.” - “Oh, dear, I wish you hadn’t said that" '' “Nonsense. They like being' eaten.” He went back for another one. Doris smiled. The hot sauces burned her throat pleasantly. She felt as if she could eat a dozen clams. .

As he went on his rounds preaching the gospel of the klDgdom, he saw the multitude as sheep having no shep herd, and his sympathy for them was aroused. This moved him ' 1. To declare that the harvest was plenteous' but the laborers were few (v. 37). He saw the whole needy world as a ripened field of grain ready to be harvested, with but few who were will ing to labor In the harvest field. 2. To ask them to pray the Ixird of the harvest to send forth laborers into the harvest (v. 38). Those whom he would send forth as laborers into his harvest field he desired to be imbued with the spirit of sympathy which would move them to pray for the thrusting forth of laborers. II. The Laborers Chosen (10:1-4). These twelve humble men were chosen and commissioned to carry forth the work of the propagation of the kingdom. III.' The Sending Forth of the Twelve (10:5-42). , \ The sending forth of the twelve shows the methods adopted by Jesus Christ In the propagation of the king dom. It should be clearly borne in mind that this chapter does not out line the policy of missionary endeavor in the present age. In order to show the dispensations! aspects of the les son, the following divisions of the chapter are,suggested: 1. Instructions bearing Immeuiately upon the apostles’ work to the death of Christ (vv: 5-15). Observe a. Tbe sphere of their mission (w . 5. 6);. They were to' go only to the Jews. They had no message for Gen tiles or even Samaritans. No such re striction obtains with reference to ministers today. . . . b- Their message (v. 7). “The king dom of- heaven Is at hand.” By this is meant the promised kingdom of Is rael was at hand—Jesus Christ.’ the promised king, was present and ready to set up bis kingdom. The Jews re jected and‘crucified him. In this time of his rejection the church is being selected from all the nations. c. Thp supernatural authentication of their mission. (v. 8). They were clothed with power to work miracles. d. Their maintenance (vv. 9, 10)-. They; were to make no provision for their support, but to depend wholly up on the Lord who sent them. Since they had received the message and power gratuitously, they were to give it out in the same way. , - e. The responsibilities of those to whom the message was delivered (w. 11-15). \ If the people would not re ceive them or hear their message they were to turn away and pronounce judgment upon them. 2. Instructions concerning the testi mony from the day of Pentecost on ward (vv. 16-23). After Pentecost testi mony for Christ would be fraught with great danger. Both Jews and Gentiles woiild assail the messengers with the most bitter persecutions. How appal lingly this has been fulfilled! Christ’s witnesses have been scourged In the synagogues before heathen magistrates. Instead of bringing peace to the homes, Christ’s witnesses have brought divi sions of the fiercest kind among many families. In their defense the mission aries were to rely upon the Holy Spirit to aid them. These conditions were literally experienced in the pe riod from Pentecost to the destruc tion of Jerusalem. Since the fall of Jerusalem no one has been scourged in a synagogue. Verse 23 seems to carry the work forward to the time of the preaching of the kingdom in the tribuhttion time. The Lord’s coming is so speedy that their testimony Is cut BhorL . 3. The teaching applicable In all ages (w . 2442). The disciple has the position of oneness with the Master. He Is, therefore, courageously' to de clare the whole counsel of God, though most violently, opposed. Though their testimony results Ir bitter opposition, the messenger should not be surprised or discouraged,, for so completely Is the Lord Identlfied with his disciples that he accepts treatment of them as treatment of himself.

A M odern K n igh t E rran t TXTHEN the city of Prescott, Ariz., v V decided to erect a memorial to the Rough Rider who went from Ari zona, to. Cuba In the Spanlsh-American war, there was more than one reason why that monument should be an .equestrian statue of Bucky O’NeilL For In the words of one historian “O’Neill was the most many-sided man Arizona has ever produced. A knight- errant of the Nineteenth century, he was always ready to couch1 a lance for the weak and the distressed. A child's appeal, a woman’s tears, disarmed him at once. Yet when the occasion caine he could be bard and cold as chilled steel.” O’Neill’s was a fighting heritage, for his father was a captain in the cele brated “Irish Brigade” from Pennsyl vania during the Civil war. After .graduation from college In 1879 Bucky went to Phoenix, Ariz., and started In newspaper work. Then he practiced law, got into politics and eventually became sheriff of Yavapai county and in that office repeatedly proved the “cold, chilled steel” quality of his courage in dealing with the various types of bad men who Infested the territory. That territory wanted to become a state. So when the Spanish-American war broke out Bucky was one of those who thought that Arizona might win statehood if her men proved 'them selves worthy in. battle. “Who wouldn’t gamble for a star?” he said, as he signed up to fight, and he meant another star In the flag, that of Arizona. He was one of the first, tf not the first, volunteer mustered Into service. Later be became a captain in the Arizona troop of RoosevelFs Rough Riders. At Las Guasimas O’Neill stood look ing down at the body of a dead Rough Rider that had been found by the vul tures before his comrades could get to him. “Colonel, isn’t It Whitman who says of the vultures that-’they pluck the eyes of princes and tear the flesh of kings’?” he asked Roosevelt, who writes of the incident: “I answered that I could not place the quotation. Just a week afterward we were shield ing his own body from these birds.” That came on the banks of the San Juan river during the advance against Santiago. Bucky was strolling up and down in front of his men, coolly smok ing a cigarette and apparently ob livious of the Spanish bullets singing around him. A sergeant begged him to lie-down iest- he be hiL With a laugh O’Neill replied “Sergeant, the Spanish bullet isn’t made that will kill me!” The next moment a bullet did strike him and, in the words of Roosevelt, “even before he fell his - wild and gallant soul had gone out into the darkness.” * * * Tho Five Fighting Zanes W HEN it came time for old Wil liam Zane to die, he could take 'pride in the fact that he had given to frontier history five stalwart sons who would make the name of Zane forever famous there. They were: Col. Ebenezer Zane, founder In 1770 of the settlement which was to, be come the present Wheeling, W Va.; a soldier in Lord Dunmore’s .war of 1774; builder and commander of Fort Henry, the scene of two famous Indian sieges—In 1777 and 1782; an early set tler In Ohio on the present .site of Zanesville; blazer in 1796 of “Zane’s Trace,” which followed the route of an old Indian trail from Wheeling to Limestone (opposite Maysville, Ky.) and over which -poured a flood of settlers into Ohio and Kentucky; a colonel of militia and a leader of men down to the day of his death In 1811. I Isaac Zane, captured by the Wyan- ’ dots at the age of nine; - a “white In dian" for ten years as the adopted son of Chief Tarhe; then, returning to his own people, a member of the Vir ginia House of Burgesses; back again to the Wyandots to become the hus band of Myeerah. the "White Crane,” daughter of Chief Tarbe, and to take her with him into the Ohio cquntry to establish the settlement which now is Zanesfield and there to live with her until his death-In 1816.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD Fra n c e S Gaston Doumergue seemingly narrowly es caped a civil war. Following two days of bloody rioting In Paris and other cities. Premier Daladier and bis c a b in e t capitulated and the reins of gov ernment were put In the bands of Gaston [ I Doumergue, the sev enty-one-year-old for mer President who I T ''" * was In retirement on t . •• < /a j,jS country e s ta te . His reappearance on the political stage was In response to the pleadings of President. Lebrun and many oth er patriots who were convinced that he alone could restore the country to quiet. It was condi tioned on pledges that both chambers of parliament would support him un reservedly and that the president would give him an executive order dis solving the parliament and calling new elections, to be used If he considered it necessary. So the “iron man” of France, as he has been dubbed, re turned to Paris with plans for a small cabinet made up of former premiers and party leaders and with power to make himself the virtual dictator of the country. War veterans, Monarchists, Commu nists and other elements joined In the violent demonstrations that forced out the Daladier regime. AU joined in op position to the government, though no one of the groups was in accord with any others in other respects. The mobs were furious and fought desper ately with the police and the, troops that Daladier had brought into the capital. The rioters, operating mainly In the Place de la Concorde and the region about the Palais Bourbon where the chamber of deputies sits, were raked by machine gun fire, sabered by mounted troops and clubbed and shot by the infantry and police; But they returned to the fray time after time and would not cease the struggle until Daladier resigned. The number of dead was estimated at fifty, and more than a thousand persons were wounded. After the battles were over the boulevards In the center of Paris presented a scene of desolation and destruction unequaled there since days of the. commune In 1871. Nationalist elements resented espe cially the removal by Daladier of Jean Chiappe as prefect of police, feeling that, he was being made a scapegoat In the Bayonne bond scandal. The Communists and Socialists accused Chiappe of fomenting the rioting, but the “right” elements said the “leftists” were determined to get the Corsican out of the way because they knew he would block the proletarian coup d’etat they were planning. The Royalists were in the mix-up hopeful, as always, that they might be able to restore the monarchy and put on the throne the due de Guise, head of the Bourbon bouse of Orleans, who lives in exile In jBrussels. Naturally the pretender shares In that hope, but he was quoted -as deploring the bloodshed. r \ EVALUATION of thedollar, and the a- ' purchase of gold at $35 a fine ounce caused a turmoil to the world’s money markets and an immediate result was a great flow of gold bul lion from Europe to the United States. The pound sterling and the franc made gains, but not big enough to suit Presi dent Roosevelt and his monetary advls- grs. Later both the pound and franc de clined again, and the a . ... confusion was made Prof. Warren greater. The French were alarmed by the drain on their gold and expressed intense resentment against the American policy, charging that the administration was making de liberate efforts to embarrass France. For the time being the administra tion was prevented from driving the dollar down to its projected parity points In foreign exchanges by the ris ing tide of American dollars flowing back to this country. But most of its financial experts were confident that the 59.06 cents value would be . made to prevail af'.er a reasonable time to allow for the shakedown. As for the $35 an ounce for gold. It Is the opinion of Prof. George F. War ren, chief deviser of the experiment that is under way, that the figure must be raised if prices, of commodi- ■ Mes are to be put up materially. Frank E. Gannett, the Rochester newspaper publisher, after a visit to the White House and talking with both the President and Professor Warren, Said In his Rochester Times-Union that he had been • convinced by tbose conver sations “that we sliall continue to raise the price of gold” and that the $35 figure probably would succeed only in preventing prices from slip ping. By the president’s devaluation stroke a treasury deficit of $1,900,000,000 was transformed overnight into a surplus Of $973,710,937. ' . TTL WAS authoritatively stated In * Washington that the President be lieves that excessive Interest rates on all classes of debts should be reduced as an Important step toward reduction of the debt structure. His viewpoint applies to foreign debts owed to Unit ed States citizens, to private debts and to- those of Industry. He was said to be of the opinion that reduction of In terest would make payment more prob able, and that fixed charges also could be cut down. Bills before the senate, which have house approval already, would enable corporations and municipalities or oth er political subdivisions of states to scale down the principal and. Interest of their debts through an agreement with the majority of their creditors. Legislation is already In effect which enables the individual to rearrange his debt, and interest rates through a pact with the majority of those he owes and to give similar help to railroads. There have been complaints, that these laws have not been' particularly effec tive and that they need strengthening; The President, in letting it be known that he thought the debtor was paying too much on obligations contracted In better times, did not say what he be lieved was a fair rate nor did he speci fy particular charges that he regarded as too high. NRA and the steel Industry came Into sharp conflict, and the NBA to a certain extent backed down. Ex ecutives of all the leading steel com panies met and con sidered the claim of the national labor board to authority given by the Presi dent to conduct elec tions for employee representatives when a "substantial” num ber request that ac tion. To this the steel men took excep tion. They issued a statement saying the. industry intends “to resist , all attacks” upon company unions and that it holds that the present plan of employee rep resentation complies with the NRA. The statement, however, declared the steel Industry “is co-operating whole- heartedly with the President in his ef forts for national recovery-and- sub scribes fully to-the principle of collec tive bargaining as provided in section 7 (a) of the national recovery act.” The NRA had given out a press statement Implying that all company unions are dominated by employers. This drew sharp criticism, and the statement was retracted. Administra tor Johnson and NRA Counsel Don ald Rlchberg upheld the right of the labor board as stated above. They as serted, however, that the executive or der which said that representatives elected by a majority of workers “have been thereby designated to represent all the employees,” does not abridge the rights of labor minorities to con duct negotiations with employers. ' Gen. Johnson C a m u e l in s u l l , who was due to V be ousted from Greece on Febru ary I, was permitted to remain for a time because of ill health, but the gov ernment at Athens then Informed, him unofficially that he must leave before February 13, two physicians having reported he was able to travel with out danger to his life. The fugitive im mediately began packing up, but at this writing it was not.known where he would go In his effort to avoid ex- traditiou. L 'T 'WENTY-TWO days after he was kidnaped, Edward G. Bremer, banker of St. Paul, Minn., was set free In Rochester, Mlnn., and made his way home, nervous and with wounds on his head inflicted when he was “snatched,” but otherwise un harmed.

The others are Ii H: Brittin, vice president of Northwest A ir- ways; Harris M. Hanshue, president of Western Air Express, and Gilbert Givvin, Hanshue’s secretary. Mc Cracken has been under technical ar rest but this was vacated. Chairman Black’s report to the sen ate showed that Brittin admifted that he had removed from McCracken’s of fice and'destroyed subpoenaed corre spondence; and also that Givvin, on order from Hanshue, had removed con- BdentIaI papers since recovered by the committee. Senator Black also told the senate that testimony before the committee showed post office contracts had been awarded “collusively and fraudulent ly” and that former Postmaster Gen eral Brown and McCracken partici pated in a “secret meeting” held In a room adjacent to Brown’s Post Office department office at which the coun try was divided into certain mail routes and contracts were distributed among “particular” operating . com panies. IN A unanimous opinion the Supreme Court of the United States held that all persons accused of violating the late national prohibition laws and whose cases had not been finally ad judicated by December 5 Iast11When -the Eighteenth amendment was re pealed should be set free. The opinion held that repeal canceled the power of prosecution. ' According to the Department of Jus tice, there were 9,576 prohibition cases, with about 13,000 defendants, pending- in federal courts. -. W ITH Uttle , debate' the Johnson senate passed the bill Introduced by Sen ator Hlram Johnson of California which Is designed to prevent the. float ing In America of pri vate loans to coun tries now defaulting on past debts.. Before passing it, the sena tors amended } the measure so that it would not hamper the P re s id e n t’ s new scheme to grant to foreign nations loans with which to buy American goods. A proviso was written In declaring that loans to. foreign defaulters could stiU be made by government ^owned corpora tions. As it now stands, however, the bill puts in the hands of the administra tion its most powerful weapon for forcing payment of defaulted war debts. No defaulting nation, may float any private loan in this country, and any American aiding in the illegal flotation of a private loan to a de faulter would be liable to five years In jail and $i0,000 in fines. According to Chairman Jesse Jones of the RFC,, the President’s plan calls for the creation of a trading bank which will partially underwrite ex tension of credits to foreign purchas ers of American goods. The bank would be entirely owned by the govern ment, so the arrangement would act ually be a partial government guar antee of ,payment to the American producer. The bank would be a di vision of the RFC.

None can say that he has failed to be quick on the trigger when It came to taking some kind of action when emer gencies had to be solved, whether one agrees with them or not, but. coupled with this haste he has been moving in toe direction of long-range planning with a celerity that is, to. say the least, unusual in.government. Some months ago, I wrote of the possibilities of the transfer of human beings, like so many cattle or chat tels, into new spheres of activity, into a new locale, into places where some of them have a chance for an even break in the battle for subsistence. At that time. I believed the idea, ad vanced to me by some of the Presi dent’s advisers, was largely a dream. But it has gone past that stage and is about to become a reality. . Harry Hopkins, Who started out to. be administrator of the government’s job of extending relief to the destitute and who since has become one of the- President’s right-hand men, is now se-. riously planning a rehabilitation move ment of the very kind that, as I said, was only a dream six months ago. Hundreds of thousands of individual families are involved. Their future is all bound up in the scientific planning or the whim, whichever you choose to call it, of those social engineers of the New Deal, it is experimental, ad; mittedly, but those who are working out the plan claim it can be carried out successfully. With Mr. Hopkins are Rexford Tugwell, assistant secre tary of agriculture and one of the pro fessors of the New Deal; MordecaI Ezekiel, also of the Department of Agriculture and also one of the pro fessors; Dale K. Parrot and Conrad H. Wirth, of the Interior departmenL and Jacob Baker, of the Civil Works administration. Their plans w ill. be completed within another month. Summarized the program contem plates the physical transfer of thou sands Upon thousands ‘ of men and their families from cities and Indusi trial areas or from farming commu nities where the land has been wotjspd to death, to'areas wherl thi 'petfffle have a chance to produce their own living instead of being, as they now are, on roles of charitable or govern ment relief organizations. This trans planting seems to have two purposes: FirsL it will provide those people who are moved with better living condi tions and a fresh start and, second. It will relieve the crowded conditions and the demand for jobs In the places from which they are moved. “We have large numbers of families whose economic future is so discour aging that It seems entirely improb able that they will ever again be ac commodated in industry, or particu larly in the industry where they once had jobs.” said Mr. Hopkins. “They are In industries that have been worked .out, such as In the steel cen ters to some extent, In copper areas and in farming country that is no long er productive and where no one can make a living out of iL “As to submarginal lands, in con tradistinction to timber land, we find families living on such lands and the government cannot go in and simply purchase the IanUa ahd have those families move on and go places. They must have some place to go. Sb that the plan is not only for those In cen ters where industry cannot help them but for those on submarginal land who are In the same kind of economic stag nation. . This plan gets into the gov ernment’s long-range program and into some of the first steps that are neces sary to work out that program. We are going to try,: therefore, to take those first steps' in the Interest of those needy people involved and - in the interests of a national economy at the same time." ■ • > * ; * * Thus the picture Ts Unfolded of a ' general program; that carried to the ultimate, means the S e m a k e herding of the popu- Social M ap latiW into thft vari r ous sections of the countoy or Cities as the planners in Washington deem wise.' It is a pro,' gram that Is designed to remake the social map of the nation. Those who sponsor It go into ecstasy In discuss: Tng the beauties of the dream and the ideals which are sought to obtain. They depict for the transferred popu lace one permanent joy of living, or as nearly such as may be expected on earth, and In listening to tlielr expo sition of the plans, one will feel the sincerity of their beliefs without half trying. They believe it is as near : utopian tn its possibilities as a gov ernment may: produce for its people. “But what- will those people do when they have been taken .SomewhereTTMri Hopkins was asked.. . “They may do two or' three things.” he replied promptly, “They may Work part of the time In national forests; for. example..

Mr. Hop kins described the $25,000,000 as “just a starter,” and explained that many more millions can and will be used If .the ideas prove-practlcable. He thinks they wilL But among those hardened critics that watch Washington day after day and who do not have F ea r IFa T oo to shape tbelr ideas ldecdiatic alonS Paiitiaaio lines- among th o s e who try to be unbiased, there is a hope that the scheme can be carried out and a fear that it is too Idealistic for use among people with the traditions of those of the United States. In oth er words. It is a guess whether the plan will be practicable. One hardened observer took me se verely to task for even assuming that It was possible to execute the plan without wasting many times'as much money as it could be worth by any guage you care to set up. I called attention that there were undoubtedly some families that would welcome an opportunity, to get on a piece of farm land, made available to them by the goveriiinenh for which they could pay as they were able. I thought they would learn a new joy In life itself and be come- independent, .right-thinking citi zens. • “ ‘Some families’ is right,” he sneered at me. “But for those ‘some’ that will make - use of the change, there will he twenty times as many that will drift back to their old ways of living at the first opportunity.” . * * * It has been unusually interesting to watch the reverberations. and reac tions here to the speech made recently in Topeka, Kan., by Ogden L. Mills, secretary of the treasury under Pres ident Hoover. . Strange and paradoxi cal as it may seem, the Mills speech put an unexpected amount of fire into some Democrats in-the administration In support of the Roosevelt New Deal and put fire into others to cause them to criticize IL , Ogden Mills has beep • derided'Andi ridiculed as few men have.suffered in political life. He was born an aris tocrat and the politicians opposed to him have made use of that. But Og den Mills is a fighter, and his Topeka speech showed that he bad lost none of his fortitude. It will be remembered that Mr. Mills charged Mr. Roosevelt with “an un constitutional effort” to grasp power over the country and accused the President of destroying the rights and liberties of the people-under the Con stitution. I have seen much less se rious charges hurled at a President to be followed by a young riot by his supporters. There have been some attacks on M r/M ills thus far, but ob servers here thought they did not car ry the old-time ring of a real battle. Of course,' It is known generally that'a goodly number of the President’s own pasty have been doubtful of some of his plans but they have been afraid to bark too loudly because of the elec tions next autumn. Those individuals lately have been a little more brave and, when I was around the senate and house of representatives the other day. I heard more mutterings than usual. -.•**' I asked some of the avid Roosevelt supporters What it meant. Their an swers were almost G ettin g Identical: “Theyare Tim oroaa not real Democrats.” - : But I asked several of those who had been thus catalogued as “not real Democrats" what the sig nificance was of the changed atti tude; Their answers were down one groove: ' “We are-JUst' getting afraid of the way this rnani Roosevelt is lead ing us.” - : WUle the Mills speech, has been ac cepted here as being the opening gun in the Republican campaign for next fall, It probably will have a broader effect than' that according to the- sug gestions Ihave heard most frequently. Etoeh the chief Democratic leaders un der the New Deal admit that Presi dent Roosevelt'has been busy for a year in development' of a Roosevelt party, as distinguished from a purely Democratic party. That being the fact,’ then,11 am told; that' Mr. Mills has issued a-rallying: cry for concen tration Of StrengthTh opposition to the Roosevelt policies, - or many of them. Is it not possible, then, Mr. Mills may have started; the actual formation of a new rRepubltean party?' As Mr. Mills set his Ideas, It is made, to appear that he and. those who. follow him will foster the philosophy of wide-open competittoh: ambng all, with as little government domination as is possible; that it will be thsft contention that; bureaucratic .control shall be avoided In every direction and that the powers of the Chief' Execu- t&e'of the nation, shall be limited, to thoseproperly delegated by the Coh stitutloh'to him. ‘ - y ■ . .

It is easy to assume that if and when this paper fell due, in possession ot the government, that the government wou'4 . hardly press the States, counties and municipali ties that put up the bonds,- or that. Congress, being made up ot repre sentatives and senatots living and moving in tbe-:e localities that owed Uncle Sam money, would not per-, mit the pressing; and that eventual ly the debt would be forgiven. But instead of holding ths security the government .will pass it on if it can find purchasers.'- W ith the seeufi ties in the hands ot private persons it will hardly be contemplated that the government would pay them— seeing that it is distincly refusing to guarantee to guarantee the debt -rand take chances with: the debtor paying. -There -is a notion that Uncle Sam’s business manager, ex pecting an effort to prevent pay ment if the money is due the gov ernment, have deliberately arranged the plans to get rid of the security if private purchasers can be found.

W ehadhopedthat CW A folks who were making from ,Xio to $30 per week would be in position to call on their doctor, preacher, editor and groceryman, to say hello and shake hands with them‘at least but such is not the case, it seem! A writer in The Charlotte Obser ver, says: ’ “ The RFC and ‘‘relief” was bad enough. The PVVA com plicated by the N R A was worse. The CW A is almost too much for the conscience ol the good people to stand.” The writer said much more, but we haven’t the heart to print it. The "forgotten man.” is the fel low who is going to pav the taxes and make good the millions ot rather billions of dollars that have been appropriated by the present Congress, according to an editorial in the Saturday Evening Post. Wonder if this is the same “ for gotten man,” that President Roose velt talked so,much about during . his 1932 campaign? Republicans throughout this sec tions are invited to gather at the court house in Salisbury on Satur day night, March 3rd. Thismeet -in g is being held with a view of getting the party in shape for great campaign this year. W ith the sales tax, the liquor question the extravagant waste of money by the State Government, together w ith many other things, there is no reason why the Republican par ty shouldn’t make wonderful gains in the next election. We have consulted many people in Davie within the past, two days and all agree that the storm of Sat urday night, Sunday and Sunday night, was the worst*they bad ever seen in this section. A three tnch snow covered the ground Saturday night, which was followed by an all day rain Sunday, which froze almost as fast as it hit wires, trees, shrub berry, etc. The rain Sunday night was accompanied by one of the worst electric storms ever seen here in mid-winter. Power lines Were1 put out of commission about 9:30 o’clock Sunday night, and the town was in total darkness, telephones were put out of commis sion by falling, poles and broken wires. The water system was put out of business' when the power-was cut off on acconnt of power line poles' and .wires crashing. Tbe' small amount of water on hand caused the town to cut off the water supply- until emergency power could be obtained AU schools were suspended from Mou day uuti! today. The damage to orchards, woods, telephone, power and telegraph lines w ill run up into thousands of dollars in and a round Mocksvtlle . Most country roads, and highways were blocked by falling limbs,' pales and wires. It is hard to estimate the amount of damage done in the county. It w ill take several days to get the power lines, telephone and tele graph lines back to normal. Tbe trees lining the sidewalks, in the yards and throughout the town present a sad sight. Oil lamps were at a premium in this city Monday. A ll passenger trains were running from one to four hours late. Tne water shortage iu Mocksville became acute Monday afternoon. Tornadoes Kill Many.

It Pays To Pull Onions And Cockle Out Wheat I have been proposing - tbe people to put a .write up in the paper on whether it paid to pull onions and cockle out.of wheat. It will be big pay . For instance, an acre of land that would make ten bushels of . wheat, a deduction of five cents per bushel would be fifty cents per.-acre. W e make this reduction on all wheat except a very few lots. Ten cents per bushel on ten bushel would be $100. This, applies to more than fifty per cent of wheat which is brought here.: If it would make twenty bushels per acre this would be a loss of $2.00 per acre. If we were to dean it and bring it up to the higher price', we would take out a$giucb good^heat as cockle which wouid be $4.00 loss to the acre If y iu cannot clean out an-acre in half day. my advice would be to .sow wheat. If you-pull one day at the above rates, vou ought to make six to eight dollars-per day pulling oniuns and cockle and save all yo ir wheat. -. A fter doing this'one year, th 1 secomfyear wouldn't be a heavy task, .but keep it-up:every year until It is clean, .L HORN, - ' 'JsLr Flaming Youth.

We want to get our Corn Hog Campaign started here in Davie just as soon as possible. - If you are a Corn and Hog Producer you will receive within a few days the necessary papers which we wish you to fill in and return to us whether you wish to sign up or not. This will not ob ligate you in any way for you will not sign or fill in the Contract, just the preli minary Form Survey sheen This is the best proposition yet and if you are in a position to accept it by all means do so. The hog reduction, will be based upon the established production of 25 per cent, of this figure. Tbe benefit payment will be $15.00 for each market hog reduced. The corn reduction will be from 20 per cent, to 30 per cent and will be based upon the production for the past two years. The benefit payment in the corn reduc tion campaign will be 30c per bushel. Afarmer may sign the hog reduction contract and not the corn if his aver age for the past two years has been 10 acres or less. If over 10 acres have been produced he must sign both,contracts- A farmer who signs also agrees not to In. crease his other market crops uoon the farm. - Think over your own situation land If you are in a . position to cooperate, you should consider doing so.

The exercise of strict care In han- aiint voiinsr chicks is highly important ! I Mitilcaling Iniciliary white diarrhea, t les M fi T- fiallSer of the North Catnlinn State fin lle Se p 0 ,,ltry dePa rt' merit, personss walking into brooder houses, Mflpnt. and nfller wild creatures, con- Iimlnated food, manure from diseased Ilrd s and unsanitary houses all are LpontiMe for spreading the disease teas Aiiotlier source of Infection is s, diseased eggs, which always batch .,it diseased chicks. ■■To wipe out the diarrhea, all dis ce d chicks should be killed and burned or buried," says Gauger. “AU brooder houses should be cleaned ev- erT day until the chicks are seven days Ad and then once every four days thereafter. AU b ird s and animals Kiiicli might spread the germs should be kept away from the chicks.” ilt least one square foot of floor space should be provided for each chick. A good disinfectant should be placed In their drinking water, and a Kell-balanced mash should be Included In their diet so as to build up their resistance to disease. To prevent the chicks from eating food that lias fallen to the floor where germs may be lurking, the feeding pans should be placed upon wife frames at least one and one-half feet Bquare and an inch and one-half above the floor. The wire should be small mesh. Or size iA hardware cloth will also serve satisfactorily. The frames should be cleaned daily. Gauger states that a most Important 6tep is to secure eggs or chicks from hatcheries whose flocks have been found free of the diarrhea after being, given the blood tests, or at least make sure that the eggs came from blood- tested birds. Vitam ins D e s tro y e d b y C ooking P o u ltr y R a tio n s Cooking poultry rations destroys vitamins B and G and may result In Illness or death of many young chicks, advises a writer In Successful Farm ing. This is the conclusion reached by nutrition specialists at the University of Wisconsin after careful tests with cooked and raw feeds. A ration made up of natural feeds and fed raw resulted in excellent growth of the chicks. But when a similar group of chicks was fed the shme ration after it had been heated for hours at 23!) degrees Fahrenheit, It developed polyneuritis. This indi cated that vitamin B had been de stroyed. Other tests showed that chicks de veloped pellagra when fed the same ration after it had been heated to. 212 degrees Fahhrenheit for 144 hours. Then this group of chicks was fed yeast which had been heated enough to destroy vitamin B but not enough to injure vitamin G. They recovered. This indicated that cooking the ration had destroyed vitamin G as well as B. It is thought that only the vitamins were Injured by the cooking.

Itwouldseemthat theflve fetching spring chapeaux Ju the illus tration could not pose farther back on the head if they tried and stay on properly. However, that is the way of the newest brims—to describe a sort of halo about the head which gives us something refreshingly different from the types which have been in fashion for many seasons past. We are inclined to believe that a conspiracy must have been going on between milliner and hairdresser to have brought about such perfect har mony between hat and hair. We will admit that this new silhouette, at first glance, seems designed for youth and youth only, but by way of encourage- ment to those who hesitate we’re tell ing you that the off-the-face hairdress and the brim which reveals an expan sive forehead are more flattering to those beyond debutante years than one might suppose. Then, too, as the new models continue to join In the style parade It Is noted that milliners are Introducing little softening touches in the way of front bandeaux and other devices which are guaranteed to flat ter. Nor is it fair to conclude that a soft arrangement of hair about the face is utterly taboo. On the contrary fash ion is that fickle you are told in one breath to brush back your hair so as to show a placid brow and the next in stant It’s rumors of “bangs” which reaches our astonished ears. The first picture in this group unmistakably carries the message of bangs. The lit tle off-the-face hat Is a Talbot tri umph done In taffeta with a big bow of spotted ribbon. The talk of town for spring is the Breton sailor. Well, here you see it to the right at the top in the picture. It is made of black toya. The thing that is outstanding about the stripes for facing and scarf is that they are In the now-the-rage Uexican colors, for fashion has gone gaily Mexican this season. Xour new suit blouse should be of Mexican striped silk or at least you should wear with your spring navy or black crepe frock a set of bizarre Mexican-striped costume jewelry. Just a word more about the popular Brqton sailor, It need not be as severe In lines as you may conjec ture, for milliners are giving all sorts of softening effects. Perhaps no type of hat is more im portant this season than is the tiara, turban. Xou will recognize at once that the model centered in the picture is one such. It is fashioned of mate- lasse straw with a row of buttons ac centing the tiara motif. No matter how staunch you have been in favor of snug close-fitting hits, you are going to find yourself talking, thinking and'wearing.bri.ms this spring' and summer. Which really will not be such a sacrifice after all. for the new brimmed models are that good looking and smartly tuned to occasion, it is said they will even be worn with suits as well as lighter frocks. The model belOw to the right in the group lends itself admirably to .IhiS1 thought for It carries, a tailored feeling. In this Re- boux “Desperado.”-we see a dashing example of. the new side mil which is being strongly advocated. Last but not least we show you a Reboux halo hat. It is of leghorn, has a bound edge and illustrates, the fond ness for bows.as.an undferbrim-treht ment. In conclusion hear this exciting news about flowers. Entire brims are being faced with' them. The newsiest news of all Is that flower trimmings are making their appearance on fell shapes. © by W eatero New spaper Union. SHOES MATCH GARB IN CUT AND COLOR New/shoes for 1934 match clothes In cut and color.

The Vionnets were soft through cowls, scarf details and circular full ness, while these latest types have im pressed pleats and careless drapes. But it is,a type of frock which stands out as entirely distinct from the tai lored daytime frock. Sports Attiro Knitted of crocheted frocks, coats, suits and hats are being chosen by fashionable women for sports wear, and suede suits with revers faced In hand-knitted wool to match the accom panying blouse are one of the smart sports novelties of the season. W IT H P E P LU M BJ CREBIE N ICHOLAS Tung Tree Now “Am erican” Its Propagafion in rFbis Country Deprives China of a Monopoly Which That Country Has Long Held; Oil’s Valuable Properties. This- very youthful-looking peplum frock is fashioned of olive green wool crepe, ,with-brown Velvet the trimming note. The peplum idea Is being. ex plotted for all it Is worth this season I Before many years have passed . Ajneru?an manufacturers may be in- dependent of the monopoly which China has long held in the tung oil industry. About 30,000 acres of tung trees now are thriving In our south ern states. Some experts aver that It would take only slightly more than three times as many acres- of pro ducing trees to make America Inde- ’ pendent of the Oriental product. “Tung oil, sometimes called Chinese wood oil, Is extracted from the seeds of the tung tree of central and west ern China. It is almost unknown in its natural state to the average lay man, but, being a good mixer, it, hides In many products with which be frequently comes in contact,” says a bulletin from the Washington head quarters of the National. Geographic society. “Long before western shipping nav igated the Xangtze river, Chinese river men waterproofed their boat timbers regularly by saturating them with tung oil. They also burned the oil in lamps, accumulated - tung oil soot to make India ink, and with carbon from burned seed pulp and other materials made a calking com pound. “Although tung oil-soaked junks frequently sideswiped western craft in Oriental harbors and rivers, it was not until about 1869 the West erners awoke to the fact that tung oil had some amazing qualities. Chemical laboratories discovered that the oil, added to varnish, makes the varnish shed water like a duck’s back; thus the origin of the demon strator in the hardware store win dow who awes shoppers when lie .,pours hot water on a table top with out marring the polish. “From the Chinese, success in wa terproofing silk with tung oil, west erners learned that other fabrics could be rendered waterproof in much the same manner. Now tung oil is widely used by manufacturers of raincoats, bath curtains and oil cloth. Wall board manufacturers have dis- •covered that' the oil makes a good binder; while the manufacturers of linoleum, steam pipe gaskets, wire insulation, and automobile enamels, also have become customers of Chinese tung oil producers. “The United States normally im ports about 90.000.000 pounds, or ,more, than-$10,000,000 worth of tung oil annually. China’s internal un rest has been one of the leading fac tors In the development of American ;tung tree plantations. When the value of the oil was discovered, the demand of the American manufac turer grew rapidly. Normally he could obtain sufficient tung oil, but brigands often delayed or destroyed shipments, or producers were desert ed by their workers who now and then felt the urge to fight, thus diminishing the supply. “The first tung seeds from China were planted in the United States by the Department of Agriculture in 1905 at Chico, Calif. A year later, the’ resulting seedlings were sent to experimental stations through the southern and Pacific coast regions. ’ They-thrived ln portions of Florida, California, Alabama, Louisiana, and ■Mississippi, where the frost is not sufficiently severe to nip the trees’ sensitive blossoms. ' “Tung trees grow to about 25 feet ln height With their white to pink ish blossoms In the spring they re semble apple trees. The tung fruit Is about the size of a small apple. Its five seeds are no larger than robins’ eggs. In China the trees grow wild, but in this country grow ers have operated their plantations with the modern system of an Amer ican orchardist When the tung fruit ripens in .the fall, it drops to tho ground. In China the hulls are stripped from the seeds.by band; In this country hulling is done by ina- ehihery. Gainesville, Flan has a tung oil pressing plant “America’s new tung oil planta tions- are near railroads and modern highways—quite different from the forests where tung trees thrive in China, for there are neither roads nor railroads. To. reach the Chinese trees one . must penetrate the remote mountain valleys of Hunan and Szechwan- provinces. "“The oil is carried on human backs to the nearest river- shipping point In light bamboo baskets lined with 16 thicknesses of waterproofed paper. Before it reapbes the sea, most tung oil sho’ots the rapids “,of the Xangtze gorges. It is not uncommon for junks containing the oil to pile.on the rocks, thus releasing an $8,000 cargo into the swirling stream.” Xour local dealer carries Ferry’s Pure Bred Tegetahle Seeds. .

EARLY DAYS OF AUTO Slew York state’s farmers, from, the first, were active In fighting auto mobile speeders. In December, 1908; the Oneida Pomona grange adopted a resolution urging enforcement of the 20-mile speed law and asking that motorists be required to slow down to four miles an hour when passing teams. The resolution said speeders were ruining the roads and likewise endangering life and prop erty. Why Doctors Favor a liquid laxative A doctor will tell you that the care less use of strong laxatives may do more harm than good. Harsh laxatives often drain the system, weaken the bowel muscles, and even affect the liver and kidneys. Fortunately, 'the public is fast returning to laxatives in Rquid form. The dose of a liquid laxative can be measured. The action can thus be regulated to suit individual need. It forms no habit; you needn’t take a “double dose” a day or two later. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin gently helps the average person’s bowels back to regularity. Why not try it? Some pill or tablet may be more con venient to carry. But there is little “convenience” in any catharticwhich is taken so frequently, you must carry if with you, wherever you go!

C at Saved Orphan With the tearing down of a house at 22 Vasterland street, Stockholm^ Sweden, which bore over its entrance door the effigy of a cat, has been recalled the story of how the tabby found the relatives of an orphan giri. While returning from Haytt to Stock holm with his wife and three-year- old i daughter, the captain of a Swedish sailing vessel died. Soon afterward his wife succumbed. The nurse, who had been engaged during the . voyage, did not know whether the ,,daughter bad any relatives; nor how to trace friends/ The ship cat, which; : was from Stockholm, started as soon as the boat landed, to guide the nurse up one street and down another until she reached 22 Vasterland street. There it. stopped, and in the house was found the child’s grandmother. Many old people in Stockholm still remember the cat and its search.

She bent her head, tnd turned over and over a black leather purse belonging to the real Doris.The car was coming nearer. In a nonient it would be past But as It approached it slackened. It came almost to a stop. Someone shouted: “Doris!” Startled she looked up. A dark-eyed girl in a green evening dress had called. "Oh—I beg your pardon!” said the girl, “I thought you were someone I knew.’’ A blond young man stuck his head forward. “It's Rocky’s car.” “There’s Rocky! Well, I thought ! you were in Europe, you dope!” “He's leading a double life!” The party, in evening clothes, got I down. Rocky, approaching Doris with I a clam In each hand, looked at them j steadily. If he was surprised and I chagrined, he did not show it. "Have a clam,” he said. The girl in the green evening dress I staggered up and seized one of the I dams. Two unsteady young men sup- I ported each other. “Clams! Jus’ what I wan’ed.” “Good old Rocky’s got clams!” Rocky was climbing in the car be side Doris. He was starting up the engine. “Hey, wait a minute. Where you I going? Say, wait a minute, Rocky.” His friends were running after him. I The girl iD the green evening dress I jumped on the running board. “What’s your hurry. Rocky? We’re I all friends here, aren’t we?” She looked at Doris. 'This is JIiss Smith, my father's I secretary. I'm just driving her down I to my lather’s house.” The girl closed one of her big eyes.

Rocky—this pure I loung man.” Eyes looked piously heavenward. Then the dimples ap peared again. “Never mind. Rocky.

They’re good for little girls. Come on. Don’t make me stop the car so that I can put them on you.” Doris complied when she realized that he meant it. It.was a subject she was tired arguing about Rocky was managing things, apparently, with a- high hand. But as she looked at him now, his warm face gleaming with a pride In accomplishing something that she felt sure was In the interests of her safety, it was easy to forgive him anything. . Rocky had provided food enough to last them throughout the trip, without stopping at inns. He had explained that by picnicking this way, they would save a good deal of time. - “I’d like to see a paper,” Doris an nounced suddenly, as if the question had not been broached before. Rocky munched a sandwich doggedly. ‘Tm sorry.” Rocky ate hungrily. “Well?” Her voice with .its high note arrested him. She drew*his blue, seriously objecting eyes to her face. His half-eaten sandwich was poised for the next bite. “Well?” he repeated. “You know the answer to that one. don’t you?” His tone was playfully hard. “The last time you happened to read a paper you didn't behave very well.” He grinned faintly and took another bite, watching her. “Oh!” Doris flung out an emanci pated arm. “Won’t you ever forget /that? I could read anything today and not lose my health. Besides I have a feeling there is something In this morning’s paper I ought, to see. Tell me, please,” she leaned over suddenly, “what it’s all about” “Put your glasses on.” “Why?” “The better to see me with.” She put them on, turning her head to look up and down the road. “Who are those people, do you suppose?” A small automobile had opened its doors to let out a crowd of motorists. Rocky was already looking. He had even brought out a pair of binoculars. Leveling them long and earnestly at the group in question, he answered, “As near as I can make out it’s a Not far behind them, another crazy car was speeding. Rocky speeded arpund a curve, tlfe other car gaining. Rocky’s foot, came down harder oh the gas, but the other one ■ was up along side of him. It passed, him noisily, hitting the front of Rocky’s car a jarring whack. Rocky yelled after him, but the re mark was lost In the noise of engines. There was a limp rattle in Rocky’s car now. Something besides the fen der had been injured. Cursing, Rocky got out “H—I,” he s.aid after a minute, “I’ll have to take this thing to a garage.’.’ He peered out at the next sign. They were two miles from > a town. He looked sharply at Doris. “And when we stop to have it fixed,” he said bleakly, “for G—d’s sake, don’t speak to anybody!” C H A P T E R V I I I As Doris was beginning to feel sleepy, Rocky’s advice seemed hardly as necessary as he thought She dozed, vaguely conscious at in tervals of tools dropping and the whir of the motor. Doris started and awoke. She half sat up. An old man who looked as if he might have been one of the founders of the village into which they had strayed was watching her from under his pushed-back hat She thought he was going to say something but discovered that he was chewing. He had dark quizzical eyes that drooped faintly at the corners. He must be over eighty. He kept pinch ing his nose between his thumb and bent forefinger as if he were trying to improve the shape of-it but-otherwise paid Doris his undivided attention. “If you please,” she began, “What town is this?” His eyes glinted at her with such a knowing expression that Doris almost laughed outright "Don’t you know what town you’re in?” he finally asked. “No, I don’t,” said Doris apologet ically. “We were driving through on our way to Canada, when something happened to the car.” “Driving through to Canada, you say?” He advanced slightly, putting one foot on the fender and clapping a veiny, hand over the knee. “Been trav eling long?” “Oh yes, ever since this morning.” Gradually she was growing less ecstatic over this quickly formed friendship. The place was getting on her nerves. Rocky had taken off his coat and R "It’s Her, All Right." healthy bootlegger who’s iialren his wife and family out for a picnic.” He laughed, but didn’t seem overwhelm ingly amused. “Shall we go on?" They got back into the car, soon making up the time lost in lunching. Rocky’s plan was to reach Vermont by nightfall.In the next town their car • went cautiously through the business street. As it passed a news stand, Doris pushed her glasses above her eyes for an instant There was a headline— The car lurched forward. “Don’t , be a fool, Doris,” unreason able words poured from Rocky; “This is no time to strain your eyes trying to read a paper. If you would only do what I ask!” Doris, with the glasses slipped back into place, looked at Rocky. His Ilps were tense in a desperate sort of an noyance. She wondered what had up set him. His eyes moved with a light wariness across the road in front of them. He was quiet for a while. Towards nightfall, they neared the Vermpnt border-line. A little before dark, Rocky stopped the car and they got out for a picnic supper. Doris asked him where they were going to spend the night.“In the car,” he answered grimly. “This trip doesn’t end tor nobody or nothin’ until we get to Canada.” “You are In a hurry,” she answered. “I think you could at least have asked me if I minded not going to a hotel.” “I could have,” he teplled cheer fully, ‘Ibut I ,had my plans all made to drive right through the night,” “And what you say goes!” She gave him an unflinching glance."D n right !” He began to whistle. It w a s evident that he was begin ning to feel pleased over the day’s work. rolled up his sleeves. Tt looked as if the Job were almost too much for the mechanic alone. “Come from New York I bet,” sug gested the old man, "didn’t you?” “Yes.” Doris looked at him firmly. “What town did you say this is?” “This is Edgewater Junction.” Rocky looked up now at the sound of their voices. His eye fell on Doris a short questioning glance. Doris un burdened herself of a weary gesture. Would they never get out of this place? “Yes, sir I This is Edgewater June ’tion.” A new expression had come into the old man's eyes. “And a long ways from New York.” His eyes 'gleamed steadily. “You got folks up in Canada?” “No, or—” Doris hesitated; Perhaps Rocky had relatives there. She wasn’t sure why he had selected Canada. He hadn’t told her that “That Is,” she continued after a minute, “I haven’t ” Rocky’s warning suddenly loomed. “For' G—d’s sake don’t speak to any body !” She had been talking Bteadily to the old man! But fortunately she hadn’t run into any complications, at ■ least not until now. She smiied at him as if the conversation were prac tically over. The smile -was received like confi dential information of the utmost im portance. The old man removed his foot from the fender and started off In. the direction of the door. Doris watched him through the small mirror above the front seat, glad when he actually had gone. From now on she wouldn’t open her lips, not even to say good • night to the mechanic. She-would watch her step.- Sho closed her eyes.) v . “It’s her, all right.” . .. (TO BE CONTINUED.) • IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAt U N D A y ICHOOL Lesson VtBy REV. P. B. F1TZW ATER, D.

How the Kingdom WSs Received (ch. 11). -In showing the attitude of the peo ple toward the king and his kingdom four classes of hearers are described. L The perplexed hearers, like John the Baptist (vv. 2-11). Jobn believed that Jesus was the Christ (v. 2) but was somewhat per plexed as to the manner of the estab lishment of the kingdom. In the Old Testament predictions two lines In Bie Messianic prophecies are presented. The one sets him forth as the suffer ing one (Isa. S3); the other as the Invincible conqueror (Isa, 56:3). In deed, In Isaiab 60:1, 2 we have the two advents In one view (Luke 4:17- 21). The Baptist bad In his preaching mainly emphasized the prophecies which made the king to be a mighty conqueror (Matt. 3:10-12). He said the axe is laid unto the root of the tree; that the chaff was to be separated from the wheat and the chaff burned. John saw Christ as the one who would remove the sins of his people by the shedding of his blood (John 1:27). but he failed to see the Interval between the time of his suffering and the time of his triumph. John’s faith was not failing him, neither did he send this deputation to Jesus for the sake of his disciples. He was a tme prophet and a faithful man bnt was perplexed. 2. The violent hearers (vv, 12-19). These were willing to receive the king dom according to their own way hut were not willing to conform to its laws. They were ready to seize It with vio lent hands. Christ had told them be fore the coming of John the Baptist, the prophets and the law were the source of ascertaining .the divine will and that if they would receive John, he would be the Elijah to lead them into the kingdom age. Their ears were closed to everything hut their own self ish desires. They would not repent when caIfed upon to do so by John, nor rejoice when called upon to do so by Christ (vv. 17-19). 3. The stout-hearted unbelievers (vv. 20-24). ’ In Chorazin. Bethsalda. and Capernaum Christ bad done most of his mighty works but the people de: Uberately set their hearts against him and his message. It was not for lack of knowledge and opportunity that they were unsaved, but because of their purposeful rejection of Christ. Tyre and Sidon, Sodom and Gomorrha were filled with immoral profligates and !delators, but' they will be more tol erably dealt with in the day of judg ment than those who Willfully reject Jesus Christ ■ 4. Hearers who are babes In spirit (vv. 25-30). There were some among the people who heard Jesus with child like faith. Christ Invites these to come to him and receive rest I). The Antagonism to the King and the Kingdom (ch. 12). The immediate occasion for their wicked determination was what Christ •lid on the Sabbath day. ' L Jesus’ relation to the Sabbath (v. 21). Tbe hungry disciples were olncking corn on the Sabbath. With this the Pharisees found fault To ’heir cavils Jesus replied and showed rhat God’s purpose In instituting the Sabbath was to serve man’s highest interests. 2. The Pharisees hold a council to Iestroy him (v. 14). 3. Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost the unpardonable sin (vv. 22- ’.2). The occasion of their blasphemy was the casting out of the demon. The effect of this work was twofold.- a. Upon the multitude (vv. 22. 23). They were amazed and cried out: “Is not this the son-of David?” Implying that his mighty works indicated him ro be the Messiah. b. Opon .the Pharisees (w . 54-32). When they heard what the people were saying their anger and*satanic malice, were aroused. They did not deny the miracle but sought to account for it without acknowledging him as the Messiah. Therefore they affirmed that he was In league with the devil Christ exposes their folly and charges them with awful guflt. They attributed the work of the Holy Spirit to the deviL This Christ calls blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, for which there is no pardon. T h e H ig h e it P o w er Everyone likes to. be powerful.

Fifty Famous Frontiersmen B y E L M O S C O T T W A T S O N T he F irst G reat F u r T rad er A MERICANS not only hare good "A reason to remember Manuel Lisa as the first great fur trader in the trans-Mississippi West, but they also have good reason to remember him gratefully for his patriotic service to the republic during th’e War of 1812. Born in New Orleims about 1776, the son of a Spanish official, at the age of twenty he owned a boat in which be engaged in commerce on the Missis sippi By the beginning of the Nine teenth century he was a large land owner near St Louis where he opened a store for outfitting Indian traders. This led naturally to his going into that business himself, at^tost with the Osage Indians on the Missouri under a grant from the Spanish authorities of Louisiana. Then Lewis and Clark made their historic exploring trip through the newly-acquired Louisiana territory, and Ltsa was quick to see the oppor tunities offered on the Upper MissourL He formed a partnership with William Morrison, and Pierre Menard of Rag- kaskia, 111., under the name of Lisa. Menard & Morrison, and in 1807 set out with a party of-traders, guided by George Drouillard, who had been with Lewis and Clark. That winter, they spent on the Yel lowstone hunting, trapping and trading with the Crows, and the following summer found Lisa back in St Louis, proud of the success of his first ven ture and dreaming of even greater en terprises. The result was the organi zation of the Missouri Fur company. During the next five years the Mis souri Fur' company prospered and Manuel Lisa rose to a commanding position in it and in the fur trade of the West Meanwhile, during many journeys up and down the Big Muddy, he had won the confidence and esteem of nearly all the Indian tribes along the river. So when the War of 1812 broke out and the British tried to in cite the Indians of that region against the United States, it was only natural that Gov. William Clark should ap point Lisa sub-agent to these tribes to counteract tbe British influence. The Spaniard did his job well. He not only organized war parties against some of the tribes who were allies of tbe British but he seeui-ed pledges of friendship and peace from neariy'-al! the Missouri tribes which kept- them out of the war. If it had not been for Manuel Lisa’s efforts, the War of 1812 might have bad a far different ending. Lisa died in 1820 but to the end of nis days he dominated the Missouri Fur company and, so long as he did, no other fur company was able to secure a foothold on the Upper Missouri. Seth Bullock, W estern Sheriff W HEN Seth Bullock died at Deail wood, S. D., in 1919, it was re called that he had not only been a life-long personal friend of Theodore Roosevelt but that he bad also been perhaps the most typical old-time sher iff of the West. As such he became •. figure of myth and legend-which he more than once, dispelled in laconic fashion. Once an easterner referred to him as a “man killer.” When the\ told Seth Bullock that, his only rep!} was: “They say I’ve killed 47 men Son, I’ll tell you what, I never killed but two and I didn't kill'them soon enough.” Although he became famous as an American frontier type. Bullock was not a native-of the United States. Born in Ontario. Canada. In 1847, lie camr to Montana at the age of twenty and established himself as a dealer in mining supplies in Helena. By tha> time the famous Montana Vigilantes had pretty well wiped out crime as an organized force. But there were stilt lawless men there and young Bullock, allying himself with the forces of law and order, learned many things which were to stand him In good stead In his future career as a peace officer in a new gold camp—Deadwood in tbe Black Hills of South Dakota. He was among the first to reach there and be took part In many of the stirring events in the early days of the gold rush of 1876. When a pro visional government was established in Deadwood he was made sheriff, and when Lawrence county was organized he was elected its first sheriff. His biggest problem was the road agents who infested the trails and preyed upon the stage coaches with their shipmeuts of gold du3t out of the hills, and it was his relentless pursuit of these which gave him his greatest reputation as a man-hunter. In one case he followed a fleeing road agent clear across South Dakota, down through Nebraska and into Iowa to the town of Missouri Valley before he “got bis man.” It was during Bullock’s career as sheriff that his friendship with Theo dore Roosevelt then a young ranch man in North Dakota, began. So at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war he was one of the first to organ ize a company for Roosevelt’s regiment of Rough Riders, although he never got any nearer Cuba than Cbickamau- ga park In Tennessee. Bullock was responsible for the erection of a mon ument to T- R. on a mountain by the same name north of Deadwood. and be lay dying in 1919, he asked to be buried at White Rocks where the monument to his friend would Iouk down upon his grave. e , 1933. W estern Newapaper Union. Expedition Will MaLe Search for Moses’ Cacnp Htoe French archeoiogic mission re turned recently from Palestine has announced that a motor road now leads to the summit of Mpuntftebo, the Palestine mountain, where on Moses is supposed' to have- died as he con templated the Promised Land. Tour ists now may speed at a mile a min ute up a splendid road to look over the Land of Canaan, contrasting with ' the’ heart-breaking climb of Moses, who spent a week on the journey. The French mission made such sat isfactory progress3 In its'excavations atop Mount Nebo that it was decided to send another mission as soon as work can be resumed. It is hoped that some trace of Moses, or of his camp,’ can be found. Thus far not a single piece of evi dence has been found to confirm that portion of the Bihle story. Atmos pheric and climatic conditions have changed the country east of the Jor dan and, while it may have been a rich plateau in Moses’'day, it is com paratively poor land today. According to native legend, Moses buried on top of tbe mountain an in scribed stone with instructions and lessons for his followers. Thousands of stones were dug up, but none bore even a suspicious mark. It is for such a stone that the Franciscan mission is looking.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD MaJ. Emil Fey IS AUSTRIA again to be the starting point of a great European war? That was the question that was wor rying all the nations of the world as the civil warfare be tween the Austrian government and the Socialists proceeded. On the side lines watching events close ly and biding their time, were Nazi Ger many, Fascist Italy, Prance just recovering from its own internal row, and the rather frightened members of the little entente. Great Britain, determined that Ger many and Austria shall not be united, was warning Hitler to keep bis hands oft Soviet Russia would like to put a finger in the pie but is fully occu pied with the threat of war with' Japan. Vice Chancellor Emil Fey aud Prince Ernst von Starhemberg of Austria were determined that the Socialists should be driveo out or exterminated and the country made wholly Fascist, and Chancellor Dollfuss was going along with them. The revolt of the Socinlists was evidently / carefully planned and the rebels were well armed and capably led. But at this writing they had won no victory of moment and their strongholds in Vienna, mainly the huge' communist apartment buildings, had been smashed by the government artillery. In Linz, Gratz, Steyr and other centers the re sults were the same.- After several days of fighting, in which two or three thousand persons were killed and many more wounded, Oollfuss gave the Socialists Bve hours in which to lay down their arms on promise of par don except for the chief leaders. This brought insufficient response, and the government troops went into action again In the suburbs to which the ‘ rebels had been driven. The latter met the attack stoutly, especially in the section just across the great Reichsbridge where they were occupy ing big buildings and trenches. Major Fey was in charge of the operations In and about Vienna, and Prince von Starhemberg was In command at Linz and Steyr. Though the German government was not openly mixing in the mess, the official Nazi newspapers were egging on the Austrian Socialists. Hitler and his comrades claim that a majority of the Austrian voters are Nazis and prophecy that the time is near when Dollfuss will fall and the Austrian Nazis will be In control. The whole tone of comment in the German, press expressed sympathy with the “mis led” workers of Austria, and the League of Nations and its members were warned not to Interfere in the struggle. Reports originating in Paris said 75,- OOO Italian troops had been massed at strategic points along the Austrian' frontier and that they and the Fascist frontier guard were ready for any eventuality. The Italian government officials said this troop movement had been going On for some time and was only part of a fundamental change In Italian military policy. London correspondents dug dp a Story, from an Austrian source, to the effect that the Austrian Socialists ob tained the arms with which they had been fighting from Czechoslovakia, either from the Czech government di rect or with its connivance. A railroad from Prague to the south runs through a part of Austria, and the story goes that trains loaded with - arms and ammunition consigned to some place in Czechoslovakia were emptied of their cargoes somewhere . between Gemundt and Pressbnrg. It is also alleged that arms have been shipped up the Danube from Pressburg to Vienna or nearby points and smuggled ashore. Czechoslovakia doesn’t at all like the Idea of being surrounded by Fas cist countries and has been encourag-'' ing democratic movements against both the German and Austrian dicta torships. Prague Is full of nefugee Socialists. In Washington and put under the com mand of Brig. Gen. Oscar Westover by Gen. Douglas MacArthur1 chief of staff. CoL Charles A, Lindbergh’s telegram to the President protesting against the summary cancellation of contracts led Postmaster General Farley to make public his report to Chairman Black’s investigating committee justifying bis action, tn this Farley made sensa tional charges that the government had been defrauded to the extent of $40,800,000 in the letting and opera tion of air-mail contracts. He assert ed that bis predecessor, Walter F. Brown, bad joined in and directed a conspiracy by which competition was smothered and all contracts were awarded by secret agreement to cer tain favored air lines. T EN days In jail was the sentence pronounced by the senate on Wil liam P. MacCracken for having tam pered with correspondence in his flies after the flies had been subpoenaed by the' special committee Investigating air-mail contracts: The same p u n is h m e n t was awarded L. H. Brlt- tin, vice president of Northwest Airways. Two other defendants were acquitted. Mac- Cracken already had been fined $100 by the District S u prem e ®*n- Westover court for misrepresentation In obtain ing a writ of habeas corpus before ac- ' tuaily being arrested. He was given time by the senate to perfect an ap peal from its. verdict. The army went ahead rapidly in its preparations for carrying the air mails after the cancellation, of contracts by Postmaster General ’ Farley. Head quarters for this service were opened SECRETARIES IOKES, WALLACE, Dern and Perkins were named by the President as a committee to draw up definite plans for his permanent public works program. This is intend ed to effect great economic and social changes and will cost probably more than half a billion dollars yearly; Mr. Roosevelt and his advisers take it for granted that even after business has achieved recovery there will be from three to five billion persons still un employed and that they must be cared for by something like the Civil Works administration. This new project as now conceived includes these major undertakings: Methodical development of water ways, water power, flood control, soil erosion preventives, reforestation, and other public works. On these works employment would be furnished In the manner of the present CCC and CW A. Decentralization of industry through establishment of small industries in rural regions to enable people to mbke a living partly by farming and partly by factory employment A start in this direction is now being made In the subsistence homesteads, for which twenty-five millions of recovery funds have been allocated. Government purchase of submai- ginal lands unfit for cultivation, which would be add?d to the public domain and devoted to forest development. For this purpose twenty-five millions already have been allotted.., f THE Civil Works administration ob tained from congress an- appropri ation of $50,000,000 for its immediate uses and its workers, numbering 3,800,- 000 persons, .received their pay. But at the same time Adminis- I trator Harry Hopkins I began the task of cut- I ting down the forces, I ordering reductions of *<j from 50 to 90 per cent ' _ !i He directed that work "mVtr"' H cease on all federal Kj civjl projects not on £ H federal or other pub- He property. By Hop kins’ plan of cutting down the total num ber of employees about 10 per cent a week, the CWA army will be virtually out of existence by May I. The largest force affected by the nonpublic property order is in the pub lic health service. Hopkins ordered it to stop malaria control efforts employ ing 29,779 men, rural sanitation using 32,010 and the sealing Cf mines by 6,571 workers to prevent water acidity in the Ohio valley. Harry Hopkins COL. HORATIO B. HACKETT of Chicago was appointed director of the bousing division of the Public Works administration by Secretary of .the Interior Ickes. He succeeds Rob ert D. Kohn, a New York architect, who has held the position for the last nine months. Selection of-Colonel Hackett, a mem ber of the Chicago architectural firm of Holabird & Root, was regarded in Washington as a move to speed up the federal housing corporation. Given $100,000,000 of public works money for low cost housing ,developments, it has spent very little. p REMIER TSALDARIS of Greece * doesn’t accept the verdict of sev eral government physicians, that Sam uel Insuli is well enough' to stand de portation without danger to his life. Tsaldaris said it would be "murder" to compel ,the fugitive American to travel in his present physical condi tion, so he will be permitted to remain In Greece until his health improves. As Insull is seventy-four years old and has clever advisers In Athens, his ex tradition may not be obtained for a long time if ever. MELVIN A. TRAYLOR, .president of the First National! bank of Chicago and one of the country’s lead ing financiers, died at his home of pneumonia after fighting the disease bravely for several weeks. Mr. Tray lor was born in a log cabin in Ken tucky 55 years ago and: made his way to leadership. In business by/ sheer ability. He also became prominent enough In politics'-to’ be considered favorably for the Democratic nomina tion for President in 1932. Chicago and the country sustained a considerable loss In Mb death. ington, HItosI Saito1 presented his credentials to President Roosevelt, and the two gentlemen exchanged assur ances of friendship and mutual- confi dence between Aeir countries; Salto said he was sure, that “what ever question, either political or eco nomic, may arise between our two countries, can and will be amicably composed In a spirit of friendship; and mutual confidence—the spirit that has characterized our relations ever since Japan made, at the instance of the' Unietd States, her formal entry into the family of nations.” "Inshare fully.” the President said In reply, “the view which you have expressed that all questions which may arise between our two countries will be resolved In a spirit of friend ship and mutual confidence. You will find this government devoted now- as in the past to the principle of main taining peace In the Pacific region as elsewhere and ready to co-operate cor dially and sympathetically with your government In all of the many lines of endeavor which are possible in pur suance of and toward making prevail that principle. It is our constant de sire that, by co-operation, all the coun tries of the Pacific region may continue to enjoy peace and may attain con ditions of abiding prosperity.” INDEPENDENTS and insurgents In congress have long advocated an amendment of the Constitution provid ing for direct election of the President, and' at last the first step toward this change has been taken. Senator George W. Norris’ resolution proposing the amendment was approved by the senate judiciary committee, with only Senator Stephens of Mississippi voting in the negative. Should the amendment be written into the federal Constitution It would abolish the present system by which citizens vote for Presidential electors instead of for the candidates them selves. Under the amendment the names of Presidential and Vice Presi dential candidates would be written on the ballots and the votes cast, di rectly for them. The amendment would also do away with the present system by which a state’s whole electoral vote (equal to Its representation in both houses of congress) is cast for the candidate re ceiving a plurality of votes cast with in the state. Instead' a state’s elec toral vote would be pro-rated accord ing to the proportion of the entire vote which each - candidate received. GOVERNORS of all the states have received from the administration a draft of a model state recovery law which would make all national cedes of fair competition automatically ef fective within the states. It would re move the threatening possibility of a constitutional barrier to the enforce ment of those codes among. concerns that d* not deal in interstate .cop- merce. p The model law would authorize the state governor to consent to the utili zation of state and local officers by the President of the United States !“In effectuating the policies of the nation* al industrial recovery act.” A viola tion of a code would be made a misde- meanor in the state with a ,penalty of $500 a day for each offense and for each day the violation continues. Where a license under the NRA Is re quired, a person doing business with out one would be liable to a fine: of $500 or six months’ imprisonment' or both. for each day of ‘the violation. rChese state penalities are copied after those In the national recovery act. The state law pronounces the exist ence of a statewide emergency and de fines its own termination on June 16, 1935, unless the President shall by ear lier proclamation have proclaimed the emergency ended.- - PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT having ‘ decided that the civilian conserva tion corps shall be maintained at full strength until March SI, 1935, orders to this effect have been sent to the commanding generals of all army areas. There will be two enrollment periods of six months each, the total number of men to be 300,000. Addi tional local'experienced men will be enlisted In some of the states, in the eighth and ninth corps areas In the ex treme West. ThePresident already has announced that he will ask congress for an ap propriation of ^rom $275,000,000 to $300,000,000 for the corps. REPRESENTATIVES of business groups in Washington said they were fairly well Satisfied with the new revenue bill which was brought before the house, though there were some ob jectionable provisions which, .they hoped might be removed by the senate finance committee later. The bill how repreSfents a compromise between the recommendations of the Hill subcom mittee and the. suggestions of the Treasury department. , The chief changes are , those with respect to de preciation, consolidated returns and ,corporate reorganizations. The bill does not reduce depredation allow ances as did'the subcommittee recom mendations. Nor; does it abolish con solidated returns for affiliated corpor ations. While it imposes an extra tax on corporation earnings when consoli dated returns are filed, this is not < so objectionable as .the entire elimina tion of the. privilege. ^ .

Washington.—If I read the signs eorrectly. neither the Democratic nor the RepubHcan party T a rred W ith is going to be able to c c ; , L do any shouting InS a m e S U c k ^ caropaIgn nert fall about the graft and corruption that has taken place while the other party Is In power: The clothing of each party bears indelible stains on that score, and If one could overlook the serious character of the malfeas ance that has taken place, there might be occasion for a laugh. That Ia to say, neither party can point the finger of scorn at the other and plead purity before the voters. Just as Senator Black of Alabama, a Democrat head of a senate investi gating committee, turns up some “pay dirt” In digging into fraud In the award of ocean mail and air mail con tracts under the Hoover administra tion, a District of Columbia grand jury turns out indictments charging fraud in the award of contracts for the pur chase of millions of dollars worth of motor trucks for the army under the Roosevelt administration. Actually, the disclosures came within 24 hours of each other, although naturally the Black discoveries were of incidents that took place about two years ago. It does not change the picture, how ever, from the political standpoint Each party has found slime in its own household, and neither can deny It be fore the voters next November. In addition to the motor contract fraud charges that the Democrats must explain away, there have been numerous cases throughout the coun try of petty graft' in connection with Civil Works administration affairs. None of these have been of more than local consequence in that they usually Involved only one or two persons hard ly known outside of their own commu1 nities, but they have made up In num bers that which they lacked In size. ;And from the partisan standpoint they constitute the basis of trouble for the party In power when they occur. The reason is that the average person In those communities will know all about that kind of crookedness, whereas a gigantic conspiracy of the typo al leged in the air mail contracts or those Involving the motor trucks seems rather outside of the picture because they have, no local connections. In other words, we don’t know the people concerned. But, the President has moved with considerable speed on the charges, in each instance. He ordered Postmas ter General Farley to cancel the air mall contracts, not one but all of them, and turned the job of carrying the air maij over to the army. He’ ordered Attorney General Cummings to go aft er the alleged crookedness in the motor truck case, with the resulting Indict ments. All of which seems to give the present administration the advantage In -the political battles that may be expected In the campaign, yet the opin ions I hear around Washington do not support that view. The observers and ■ analysts insist that neither political party can make much use of tbe^ar-' gnment about fraud without stirring op a fresh mess for Itself. * • »- * There ts. and always has been, a sharp difference of views about grant ing subsidies fo r M ail c a rry in g the air Subsidies mal1 the ocean mail. A s id e from the fraud charges. It appears there Is. a natural basis upon which opinion' may be divided. Roughly, those who favor the subsidies do so because it is the one way In which our govern ment may encourage by direct aid the expansion of an Industry. Those who favor subsidies point out, for exam ple. that the miilenium has not been' reached and that war is not banished from the earth. Why, then, they ask, should not the air craft industry and the shipping indnstry be encouraged to go ahead, develop, expand, experiment produce bigger and better ships and planes? If there be war. those ships and those planes are available for gov ernment service. They are built; they are ready, and ‘ the government can command them. Resides, if there be war, the industries concerned will .bavei plants, and equipment and pians,- Productlon of ships' and planes fof war can go forward at wartime speed. Thus, say the subsidy advocates, sub sidies for air maiii and for <icean mall actually are for defense of the realm In their full effect ' , Then, there is the question of Amer ican predominance In the field of com merce. Other nations subsidize their Bhlpplng, their air craft industry, it is only by use of • the subsidies, which means paying more for the service ren dered than it actually is worth, can we keep , pace . with foreign- nations In Oiose two fields. As a matter of cold fact the use of subsidies is the reason why the Amer ican air craft-Industry has grown and now equals or exceeds the same Indus try anywhere: else In the world. As a further matter of fact the use of sub sidies has kept a good deal , of Amer ican shipping alive and, thereby has kept American exporters from failing into the: clutches .of Joreig0.. shlpptnW companies who Would have no comr.fr UtlpB In numerous routes were the Americans to withdraw ’ Those who attack the subsidies. however, claim they constitute a vile discrimination. They allege them to be nnjnst nse of taxpayers* money, be cause they suck cash from the treas ury that should be used for general purposes of government Further, It Is the .claim of subsidy opponents that such payments produce monopolies, drive out doinesUc. com petition which might not fall within the formula for subsidy payments. Generally, the opposition claims that subsidies add to the strength of the rich and the taxpayers carry the bur den. Thia extra, load, the figures show, amounted to .$54,453,000 in the last five years. As far as 1-can.see, and I have dene considerable research work on the question, the arguments of neither side are infallible. Each side, In support ing its. view, Ia not wholly motivated by utilitarian or nationalistic senti ment • * » I have always held the conviction that each of us. as an individual, is and can be no T a k e T h em selves more than just S erio u sly one of the teem' Ing millions in habiting this old earth, and, holding that belief, I never have, thought that any of us ought to be Impressed with his own importance. In other words, "don’t take yourself too seriously.” But my philosophy of life apparently Is not shared by members of congress. Most of them do take themselves se riously, very seriously. In proof of my statement, permit me to caH attention to a small uproar that was created among several members of the house of representatives be cause officials and staff of the Farm Oredit administration tailed to do a hop, skip and jump when the house members sought something or other from the credit administration offices. The house members became so wrathy that they decided they wanted to in vestigate the credit administration. The rules committee of the house, the committee that really determines whether proposals for action by the bouse shall ever get before that body, bad Dr. William L Myers, farm credit administrator, before it Doctor My ers was told that there had been nu merous charges of graft and Irregular ity in credit administration affairs and Qie bouse members were trying to de cide whether to delve, into them. In the midst of this discussion, Repre sentative O’Connor, "a New York Dem ocrat, burst forth with what the news paper correspondents seemed to think was the real reason for the flareup about credit administration affairs. “The main reason we are consider ing an Investigation,’’ said Represent ative O’Connor, “is because we have trouble with farm credit officials whose salaries we appropriate and whose jobs we create, and who think we have no eontrol over them.” The New York representative called the credit administration “the depart ment that sneers at congressmen,” and ' Representative Carpenter of Nebraska, also a Democrat said he had tried to get an appointment with Doctor My ers but'had failed to get by the admin istrator’s secretary. At this point Representative Wferner of South Da kota. another Democrat chimed In with an observation that “when you go down to the. Farm Credit adminis tration, they laugh at yon.” Doctor Myers denied any intent on his part or on the part of his staff to snub members of congress, but the representatives certainly felt they had been-snubbed. * » • While It Is no grief of mine whether a member of the house or. senate wants to have every- P la yin g ■ body kotow to 'him, PoU tics 1 ’ continue to be a friend of the execu tive branch of our government and that friendship results from many years of observation of Its. capacity to-get things done. The records of congress through the years show distinctly, as far as I am concerned, how few times it has risen up to the full measure of the country’s demands upon it It has persisted In “playing politics,” and the .amount of demagoguery that ts printed In the Congressional RecoM each day is enough to choke several of the best cows In the neighborhood. And, un der present conditions, I am! moved to ask why. If these house members and senators are so Important they obey the party whip and do as they are told every. Hme there Is a bill sent to con gress from the White House. From- a Iongcperiod of observation, I believe' that representatives and senators do get most of the things they seek from the-various offices in the executive departments of the gov ernment Time after time, constitu ents of a representative or senator will come to Washington, seeking fa vors or pei-haps speea on a legitimate proposition and they ask their repre- sentattre « their, senator to help. I have been In offices and have heard senators or representatives telephone the office In the erecntiye branch that is concerned, and they do not m i-,.. words-..!*, admonishing;.the man -at the other end of the wire that a specific Jhlng must be done.
