I turn the phenomenon over to-, .psychologist, being content merely to state the facts as I have seen them. To the male, the Sunday- morn- ing church hour, if uotrworshipful, should at least be a diversion from the long holiday monotony.. After no greater exertion than' breakfast, bath and the funny papers,‘gentle men members of your ,congregation should be the more alert and ap preciative of the weekly hp'mage. But the evidence points to a con-: trary conclusion A woman can a- rise on Sunday morning, cook hot cakes for breakfast and chicken for dinner, dress the children for-Sun day school,. find her husband' a change of clothes, prepare her own toilet, and then sit through the church hour, the best poised -com municant of them all. Once a tireless and enthusiastice worker in our Baptist church made a special trip to Charlotte one even ing to hear. Dr. Truett, one of the most eloquent of Southern Baptist preachers. He arrived early and found-a seat of-vantage. The-tide has been chilly and the warm Church provided a most comforting contrast. Anticipation of the treat in store, mellowe'd as the body tem perature was gradually restored to nornlal. Soouthe good Baptist’s eyes' became, heavy-lidded. ... Mpri/ pheus, took him i r E E i ^ 'duping ffie ‘Or’gafC^f?l'ffde and 'dfffhT'Tiirn him loose until the benediction. I attended a church some ago where a sainty' old elder who, they said, was the salt ot the earth, sat alone on the unwanted front seat. His deep, soft “ Amens,” regularly intoned, gave, rhythm to the preacher’s admonitions * like the faint exquisite music of a dream.” It seemed to me that the worshipper bad practiced so long that he could regulate his “ Amens” to go off at pointed intervals, as though they were the chimes of an eight-day clock. When it used to-be the custom of preachers to punctuate their mes their messages with true life stories of the revelation, I could put by- chin in my fingers at the beginning of the tale, feign attention, and sleep until the congregation took the shuffles and the sniffles, an nounciug that the-wages of sin had been expertly aud melodramatically driven home. AU these crimes against courtesy I and many .other men have com mitted. Countless numbers of us have given brazen exhibitions of plain and fancy nodding in church some have stolen, uaps, others have courted M r. Tennyson's “ mysterry of folded sleep” and rocked about their pews like in- landers suffering the first agonies of seasickness. Who can tell why this offense of church sleeping is strictly mascu line? I don’t believe a woman would go to sleep during the wor ship hour if she had been up Ml eight tending the sick and then listened to a sermon delivered in lullaby tempo. Pride, curiosity as to the material of the. new Aresses on display, prospect of injury to poise and many other contributing influences help milady maintain her Sabbath alertness. The prin cipal reason w ill probably never be determined. . The factremains that a woman caught ijapping in church would endow the world with its ninth wonder.

When the bootlegger was.eliminat td—aud wasn’t be eliminated^ when he dry ' law was repealed?—there would be no more “ poison” liquor. Ouryouth would be-saved from the horrible results of !drinking the bootlegger’s gin. It was always a simple matter— they toid as—to get whiskey during the prohibition era. But the dtf acuity was in getting “ good” Ijguor,. Isn’t it~wouderful that the drinking man can easily get “ good” liquor without violating the law? How “ good” is the post prohi bition liquor; Here's what Carter Field, writer for the Bell Syndicate one of the biggest news 'Syndicates in the country, has to say about it: “ Some operators, who evidently knew'very little about the whisky business and started off with the theory that a 'blended’ whisky is. what its name would Seein to imply S k blend of two or more whiskies — have been selling a rather danger- ouS.and highly injurious' beverage, compared to which the r average Sbq'ffeg .was pure as the driven-snow. They:mixed fhe:two together!and put them oil the m arket'for a quick1 profit.' - "The trouble is that the new whisky, by far. the predominant in gredient, was chockful o f fusel oil and other harmful ingredients which, in the pro ess of combiuing with charcoal in aging,.disappear in properly treated whiskey. “ It played havoc with stomachs, which had weathered fourteen years of bathtub gin aud bootleg whis key. Actually it was much worse than any of them.” —Winston Journal. The more money the leaders and managers can get,, the more they w ant, and say. they need. The almighty dollar is 'the god of earth today.

And the “ Image of the beast,” is the almighty dollar; it is the only thing that “ bears an im age on it.” - The “ love of which is the root of all evil.” And most of us think more a- bout the money we need than we do about God and his blessings we need daily; and the sooner we find it out and quit it the better for us hete and hereafter. This is a dan gerous age, and many of our friends and teachers, even, have not found it out yet—at least, don’t act like it.

Fair . Tax Association means business—or rather justice. A large number Of citizens and.businass men. of the State gathered in Greensboro yesterday to express their intelligent and effective opposition to the sales tax now in force in North Carolina J.-Paul Leonard, who is executive bead of the Fair Tax Association, de fined the purpose of the meeting as the “ arousing of the . electorate of the State that only those candidates honestly committed against re-enact-, ment of the sales tax law and who will oppose, any similar or kindred measure can be nominated and elect ed to the General Assembly Mr. Leonard did not dweil. upon substitute taxes. It was the senti ment of the-'meeting that the im mediate thing to do was to get rid of the sales tax because it is the wrong way of get rid of the sales tax be cause it is is the wrong way of get ting money to finance the State gov ernment. He made this telling point: “If the State can get sufficient money from its subjects to bring about the wonderful results - now credited to the sales tax, it can cert ainly get money enough to accom plish the same results through a system of taxation based on true principles of fairness.” . The speaker spoke even more directly in the conclusion of' his speech: “ A cursed thing like the sales tax monster, which preys upon the poor by exacting toll on purchas es of food, fuel and raiment, in equal proportion to the toll exacted on the purchases of the rich and ,which drives business from the stores of patriotic home merchants who have during all these years willingly cai- ried their just portion of the public burden—such a -monster, I contend should be damned to a premature death.” Strong language—but bow truth- fu ll—Winston-Salem Journal I Mississippi Goes Wet.

It Is Iiuportant that the turkey breeding flock he well controlled dur- tlie season of egg production. Free ’ e nm}- be allowed until about a Inth before the birds start laying. AS this time approaches, advises a correspondent in Successful Farming, thev are best put under control so that t h e i r Instinct of stealing away to nest Joes not cause a serious loss of valu- shie hatching eggs. In the nortli well-managed turkeys tart to lay early in the spring., There fore, it is "'eii t0 Place tbe breedinS (loch under control early and feed a tood Inving mash. XIanage It the same as u flock of laying chickens should be managed. Provide as large a range as possible so long as it keeps the birds 'under coutrof and does not allow them to steal away to nest. A good shelter Is necessary for them while the weather Is still cold and blustery, but as the season grows wanner they may be al lowed to roost in an open shed pro tected from storms. A successful method of encouraging tarly egg production from turkeys Is to provide liglds for the breeding flock the same as for chickens. So long as the weather Is bad all feeding and watering equipment should be kept in doors and cleaned often. After that It Is well to keep the feed and water sup ply away from the buildings. Xests for turkeys may be made of barrels. Little individual huts roomy enough to be comfortable are also sat isfactory. Broody turkeys are much easier to break np than broody chickens. Con finement for one to three days usually cures them of the notion, after which they soon resume laying. A good turkey will lay between 35 and 40 eggs by May 15. Hatchability o f Eggs Is Influenced b y F e e d Because proper sorts of feed for the poultry flock influence the hatch- ahiiity of eggs, some hatcheries In Ohio pay premiums to ponltrymen whose eggs hatch the most chicks, according to R. E. Cray, extension specialist in poultry husbandry for the Ohio State university. Hatchability of eggs depends in part upon three factors which are .under the control of all poultrymen. More fertile eggs are obtained from flocks fed a green food, milk, and supplied vitamin D, says Cray. Green foofl may be supplied either In the form of alfalfa or soy bean hay, or by adding alfalfa leaf meal to the dry laying mash. Feeding both milk and green food sometimes increases the proportion of eggs that hatch as mnch as if) or 12 per cent Feeding one and not the other increases hatchabillty slightly. Vitamin D may be supplied either in cod liver oil or by submitting the flock to direct rays from the sun on a winter range. Fed even to birds on the range, cod liver oil beneficially •fleets hatchability. Choosing B reeders Vigor and health are more im portant than all else in selecting a tur- oy breeding flock. Vigorous, fast growing, early maturing, blocky young toms are preferred for breeding, oung hens are preferred to old ones ccanse they generally lay earlier and ay more eggs, except in the case of f!u? ,I selected iaFerS.

S rlBbiag andT<ffC<i corc arei bOtb Crisp White Neckwear’s the Thing By C H ER IE NICHOLAS W S C DCH an exciting season of striking crisp white neckwear as is this! Seems as if most of spring and sum mer costume Interest is centering about neckwear treatments. It really is not overstating the matter to say that frilly, frivolous and altogether fascinating details at necklines, sleeves, shoulders and wrists are Just about to “steal the show.” That oft-repeated theme of black- and-white comes to us for spring in terms of chic black frocks which are lavishly enlivened with the most be guiling crisp white neckwear fancy can picture. For that matter, wheth er the dress be one of the new black or dark blue crepes or a swanky thin pastel woolen, or a print done In the new bizarre coloring, the first thing to strike one about it is almost sure to be the feminine frilly white neck wear which adorns it. As to the materials for these all- important neckwear items they In- ; elude most, everything from tailored piques, taffetas and washable crepes to sheerest of transparent mousselines and organdies. And there’s Iacel Don’t forget lace, for any amount of pretty lace -fixings are in promise, ranging from Irish crochet and all- over patternings to daintiest Valen ciennes. Possibly it is the frilly little sheer pleatings which are assigned the lead ing role in this play of neckwear. Any way “oodles and oodles” of wee pleat ings are running riot about necklines and sleeves and up, down <.nd around front fastenings. The illustration presents a few neck wear bighspots. Since these sketches speak so dramatically for themselves, instead of describing them individually we would much rather tell you about the perfectly adorable neckwear- fan tasies which are designed to simulate flowers. For example, a capelike bil effect is formed of a mass of long spearlike petals suggesting the chrys anthemum motif. Then there is the daisy collar which is made of long petal tabs. A. cala lily theme is in terpreted via a series of cornucopia rolled tabs of white pique.. Tulips, orchids and roses are also copied In various white weaves. Of course mere words do not do them justice;,they have to be seen to yield to their magic spell. We have not attempted to picture by word or sketch the multitudinous tail ored fashions which are featured on the vast neckwear program mapped out for the coming months. Plentiful versions appear In starched "and stitched linen and pique in plain and' embroidered organdie and there. Je a big showing of printed silk neck’ togs. .Outstanding In this class are the clev er scarf and, bib effects made of gay Mexican silk stripes. For afternoon wear there are col lar and cuff sets fashioned of metal- barred and embroidered taffetas stress ing bright greens and reds and other primary colors, likewise blacks and navies with gold or silver pattern- ings, with gold on white being an out standing favorite. Huge bows either of gay silks or fashioned of sheer white weaves are receiving lots of attention. Very elab orate lingerie bows are made ef masses of little “val" edgings or work embroidered organdie and lace to gether. Many of the bright silk collars and bows have matching hats and even a belt and a bag of the identical silk Is sometimes added. @ by W eeterD K ew epaper Union* COLORS FOR SPRING COVER WIDE RANGE Talk of colors for spring Includes such phrases as “bright light” colors ind "dirty" pastels. In the pastel range baby pink influ enced by gray or grege, and bois de rose inclining toward ashes of roses; blues in pearly tone are leading tones. In the brighter' range are Chinese and geranium reds, similar respective ly to manchu and sunred; a tango shade like Indian orange, and a corn yellow with less green In it than the corngold. Of basic colors, everyone agrees on another season for navy, both dark, and light, and look for the big suc cess of string color, grege and other naturals. ’K E R C H IE F BLO USE B r C H ER IE NICHOLAS N ip ped-In W aist and W id e Shoulders Is Spring Note Nipped In at the waist and width through the shoulder still is a formula for very chic costumes that are coming from the hands of leading designers. This forerunner of the spring sihou- ette Is especially interesting, since It Indicates that a fashion thought that might be regarded as “killed” Id one season because of overemphasis In mass fashions may be reinterpre ted for another season and through the skillful hands that deal with a trend In the restrained manner of the better designer reincarnated Into a fashion for the ultra chic.

There is to: be a well- known beauty- specialist, an actress, a society woman, an Important dressmaker, a poetess and “pronii nent women from the world of art, home decorating and the screen”! And they will endeavor to answer the question, “What is charm?” I doubt if they can—If anyone can. The moment you try to track down the quality to definable terms It eludes you. “That sounds like it,”, you will say, “but So-and-So would not answer quite to such a descrip tion, and yet she has charm.” Or someone who does answer doesn’t have quite that something that sets her apart and makes everybody, men, women and children—oh, yes, the women and children, too, recog nize real charm—her. slaves. " , A woman may be very beautiful— and not have charm. A woman may be very brilliant—and not have charm. So many brilliant women don’t. A woman may be very good— and ditto! A woman may have clev erness or vivacity, even “personal ity”—and hot have charm! • And yet you have met women who are neither beautiful nbr brilliant— nor even too good—who had charm. What is It? It reminds re of that famous question of Mra1 Teall of the Newark Bvenlng News. “What quality do you vibrate?” It is a quality that some women vibrate, but I doubt that any one ‘‘specialist” can quite catch it—It is compounded of so many things. Something of goodness, of course, of charity and understanding, and something of humor and calm and objectiveness— of Interest in other people and a stability and sufficiency within one self—a sort of inner hold and con trol that can maintain always the same poise, that vibrates strength and gives help, but never needs It That Is the reason for. the air of mystery that one- sometimes feels about w*men-with real charm. They are so self-sufficient they never re veal themselves, never state them selves, so to speak. They have the maternal receptiveness that obliter ates itself. Their own problems the world never knows. They have iiharm. . '..Jlv ' J ‘ ©, Bell Syndicate.-—WNU ServiM . REMEMBER THIS CROSS I t M e a n s t h e R E A L A R T IC L E GENUINE ASPIRIN I .

A bad bowel condition means bad behavior. And it doesn’t help matters to give bilious boys and girls some powerful cathartic that upsets them for days. When you see a coated tongue, dull or yellowed eyes, or other signs of sluggishness, there’s always a way to cleanse and sweeten that little . system without violence; next day you have a happy, contented child. This common-sense treatment is explained on the right: Good health and good behavior go hand in hand. With inner health, come smiling faces and sunny dis positions. And it’s really so simple a matter to keep children’s bowels regular. The only “medicine” most youngsters ever need to promote thorough bowel action is pure Cali fornia Syrup of Figs.

Fniit Growth Without Seeds Now Predicted “Because certain fruits do not con form to Nature’s. laws, humanity Is able to enjoy their dessert' without the nuisance of pips.” Such was the Interesting statement of an Importer. “Sex laws apply to plant life just as they do to the rest of nature,” he went on. “Speaking generally, no fruit can grow unless It has been fertilized. Where no such ‘marriage’ has taken place, the fruit withers and dies. Eons ago, certain fruits, including the banana and tbe bread fruit, rebelled against these laws, and ,for some reason unknown to' scientists the trees were capable of producing sexless fruit That is the reason why there are . no 'pips In bananas. ' Horticultural experiments in this regard were undertaken some years ago with oranges, grapefruit and pine apples; and'after years of unsuccess ful trials the seedless fruit was at last produced. It is now. only a mat ter of time for growers to discover methods whereby seeds can be com pletely eliminated from all kinds of fruit” Situations “What are you going to do about the political situation?” “I am In melancholy doubt,” an swered Senator Sorghum. “When appointments are demanded by my constituents, the trouble seems to be that there aren’t enough political situations to go ’round.” GARDENS In fresh dated p a c k e t s a t your local store FERRYrS PUREBRED VEGETABLE SEEDS NOW 5 RECORD, MOCKSVILLE,.

Rocky’s voice was -without a qualm. “Speak to me instead.” The light flicked up and over Rocky’s face. “What's your name?” “Rockwell Du Val." “See your license?” Rocky produced it. This had all happened before, but this time Doris knew that the looking at the license was a pretense. The man on her right on the motorcycle was so close. And why did he have his gun In his hand? “Who’s the young lady?” Rocky did not falter as he lied: “My wife.” . Two more men were coming from the car behind. There was a fearful, quiet tread, a breathless expectancy in their walk. Enowing nothing yet, Doris felt terrified. She tried to con trol her panic. Rocky was being so bold, and yet, she knew that he, too, was frightened. “Has the lady any identification?” “Yes. Plenty.” “Let’s see some of It.” Doris could feel Rocky’s nervous in ward tremor while she listened to his assumed belligerence: “What's this all about?” “We’ll cOme to that.” A small wiry man in plain clothes interpolated briskly: “We’ve got.you. No use trying to pul! anything. Bet ter get out of the car, mister.” “Am I under arrest?” “You’ll find out what you’re under.” “You bet I’ll' find out what Tm un der. And I’ll find out before I get out of this car, too.” • The fat-faced cop elbowed the small wiry man dslde. “Just wait Let’s find out about this. Nobody’s under arrest yet.” “That’s better,” said Rocky. A dozen flashlights played over Doris’ face. Now she heard a mur mur among the men. “Looks like her all right.” “Sure it’s her.” “Have you any other identification besides your license?” “Yes.” “Can you prove that Oiis lady Is your wife?" Again the lights bombarded her. She covered her face with her bands. What did they mean? “Don’t do that?” said Rocky to Doris out of the corner of his mouth. “Look them straight In the eye!” She obeyed, quivering. Rocky addressed the officer stand ing beside him : ‘Tm a friend of Rock well St. Gardens. He’ll identify us In a minute.” There was a slight sensation. The wiry man came and stood be side them. “You "say you know RockweU St. Gardens?” “Yes. I know him very weU.” , “Does he know your wife?” , “Yes.” v “Your name is RockweU Du Val?” “Yes, Fm named after St. Gardens.” The policemen conferred. The man on the motorcycle still balanced close- to Doris, the engine of his motorcycle shuddering gently as he guarded the car. The officer returned. ‘Tm sorry to ask you, but you’ll have to come to the station with us. We received a tip over the telephone that Diane Merrell was in this car!” “That’s utterly ridiculous.” Doris felt Rocky’s strong grip on her arm.' The bluster in his tone was a thinly concealed artifice. Nevertheless she could feel a change in the atmosphere. The policemen were uncertain. Rocky knew it too. She could feel a new strength In his voice as he said again, “Look here. Are we under arrest?” “Nothin’ Uke that. We just got to take you up to the station if you don’t mind, mister—” Rocky cut in crisply. “But I do mind. Fve been driving aU day and my wife is tired.” “Yeah, but, mister, in a case like this we gotta be mighty careful. And we got this tip—” “If you want to arrest us, that’s your lookout,” said Rocky. The fat-faced cop pushed his face into the car, looking over the wheel at Doris. “We’ll go up to St Gardens’ place with you. How’s that? If St Gardens can identity you—” He opened the door of the roadster as he spoke. 'TU drive,” he said to Rocky. “You can come along In the car behind.” Doris protested involuntarily. “No. No. Don’t leave me, Rocky.” “If we’re not under arrest I think I’ll drive,” said Rocky gravely. The cop grunted. He walked around the car and got In beside Doris. “O. K. Let’s go.” The man'on the motorcycle sent his machine leaping ahead of them. The cool air came rushing grate fully to Doris’ pale cheeks as ,the car got under way. Her shoulder was tucked under Rocky’s like a small chicken nestUng under i^s mother’s wing. What was the name of the girl the police wanted? Anne Somebody. Was that her real name? Had her real self been found at last. And was she a criminal? Doris put these thoughts away.. Sup posing they, accused her of the worst of crimes. How could she deny them? What, oh what could she have been in that other lost life of hers? They turned at last between stone gate posts.“This Is the place aU right,” said the cop.They rode for three-quarters of a mile before the lights of the house ap peared.At last Rocky drew up before the door of the great house. He shut off the engine, opened the door and jumped out “Come on. Doris.” ^ e motorcycle cop drew up beside ^ them. “Not so fast" Doris knew then that the policemen were still suspicious. Rocky had run ahead up the steps of the house, and was ringing the bell. Doris with a policeman on either side of her fol lowed more slowly. Her heart was beating wildly. Tba door opened slowly. A blond impas sive face looked out “Hello, Swenson. Is Mr. St. Gardens in?” The butler swung the door open. “Yes, Mr. Du Val, Come in.” Rocky motioned to Doris. She went into a square-hallway. The policemen came too. , On a landing above a short square- set figure appeared. He had on a dressing gown, and held a book In his hand. He stared at the group for a minute In amazed silence. “Rocky! Is it Rocky, for heaven’s sake?” “It’s Rocky. Fve brought my wife,” Rocky was bounding up the stairs to the landing. Doris saw him take the short square man by the shoulder and say something. Then S t’ Gardens turned and came down the stairs with outstretched hands. “Doris! ’ It’s so nice to see you again. I was wondering when you would turn up. You must be tired from your journey. Been traveling all day?” Doris was confused. She took St Gardens’ hands gladly, smiled at him without speaking, but it was the vague act of a bewildered and ex hausted child. , She sat down in the nearest chair. The room was' going round and round. She hardly heard the policemen. She knew that everything was being arranged. Everything was all right Rocky had fixed things. The policemen went away. The door was closed. "Beatrice isn’t In. Someone’s giving her a dinner and dance at the country club. I didn’t stay. I just got In,”, said St. Gardens. “Lucky I did, too. Wasn’t that a rummy thing—those dumb cops picking you up like that?” “Terrible,” said Rocky. “They were so suspicious I thought it would save a lot of trouble if you pretended you had already met Doris. May I intro duce her now?” Doris roused herself. St. Gardens was holding out both his hands. “This, is a great pleasure, my dear. Rocky has always been like my own son to me.” Doris put her hands hastily across her own eyes. She knew she was act ing badly, but it was all so puzzling to her tired mind. “She’s exhausted,” said Rocky apolo getically. • SL Gardens apparently didn’t know her. He had pretended to recognize her in order to save her from the police. He thought she was the real Doris. She was to fool him as she had fooled the Du Vais. She rose trem bling, a hand pressed against her cheek. “No, no!” “What's the matter?” They could not follow her thoughts She was being stupid. She could not pretend to be the real Doris any more She was really that girl—that crim inal the policemen were seeking. She looked at Rocky with widened eyes. “I can’t stand it Fm—” St. Gardens took her elbow. His voice, rich and caressing, spoke to her softly: “You are very tired. You have been through a dreadful ordeal I can see that. And now you want to go to your room.” “Let me take her upstairs,” said Rocky. “You are right She needs to go to bed. She's knocked out.” “It’s enough to knock anybody out- being ,mistaken for a murderess,” said St. Gardens sympathetically. Doris looked at him. A murderess. That’s what she had done. She had committed a murder. The room was still rocking, but she no longer felt tired. St. Gardens’ words had gal vanized her. New life, like second wind coming to a tired swimmer, flooded her- She looked at Rocky In agony. What did St. Gardens mean? Rocky read the question in her eyes, but he deliberately ignored it. “Come, you must go to bed.” Doris - wanted to speak but hef mouth felt dry. Meantime Rocky,-as if anticipating her purpose, had begun to talk hectically about their trip. And he was pushing her np the stairway. A maid came. Itocky went out to get her bags, leaving her standing at the top of the stairs beside St. Gar dens. She looked at him with twisted brows. “What did you say a minute or two ago about a murder?” St Gardens smiled. “Oh nothing. I was just referring to the stupid business of the local law enforcers in mistaking you for what’s her name— the girl who shot her husband at a wedding.” Doris clutched the stair railing. She was looking into a bottomless gulf. "What’s her name—the girl who shot her husband at a wedding?”‘She was what’s-her-name—a girl who shot her husband at a wedding. Rocky ran up the stairs, bag in his hand.“What’s the matter?” he said sharply.Doris said shakily, “He said, what’s- her-name—a girl who shot.her hus band at a wedding—am I—” Rocky took her firmly by the- arm. “You come to bed.” To St Gardens he said : “She’s hysterical.” " “And no wonder.” SL Gardens left them, bu.t she did : not notice.. She knew that Rocky was pushing her into the bedroom, and sending the maid away. He was clos ing the door. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

GOLDEN TEXT—Ot the Increase of his government and peace, there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order It and to establish It with Judgment and with Justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.—Isaiah 8:?, PRIMARY TOPIC—A Story Jesus Told. JUNIOR TOPIC—A Story Picture of- the Kingdom's Success.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What Our Religion Means to Us. . YOUNG PEOPLB AND ADUIfT TOPIC—Pictures of the Kingdom. - Ia this chapter of Matthew the “mysteries" of the kingdom are un folded (v. 11). By “mystery” In the ■Scriptures Is meant truth undlscover- able by human reason, made known by revelation. The teaching set forth In these parables sets forth the admix ture . of moral and spiritual interests which characterize the period between Christ’s rejection and his triumphant kingdom. 1. The Mustard Seed (tv. 31, 32). L Its unimportant beginning (v. 31). It begins as the least of all seeds. Not only was Christ, the king, of humble parentage, but his disciples were unlettered fishermen. 2. Its vigorous growth (v. 32). Though small at its Inception, the work Inaugurated by ChrisL has be come wide in extent and mighty In power. 3. Its lodging capacity (v. 32). The birds which find lodgment In the tree represent predatory Individuals who have found shelter in the church but are not part of iL The birds which lodge In the branches are the “fowls” which devoured the seed that fell by the wayside (v. 4). II. The Leavened Meal (v. 33). L The meaL Meai In the Scrip tures means something nutritious and wholesome. Elxamples of its character and use are found in Gen. 18:6;I Kings 4:22; D Kings 4:41.. Also it was used In one of the sweet savour offerings which typified Jesus Christ (Lev. 2:145 R. V.). 2. The woman. The woman Is the administrator of the home. Her re sponsibility is to take the bread pro vided by the head of the home and prepare and distribute It .to the chil dren. Observe:- a. Her acL She hid the leaven In the meaL' b. Its issue, ft leavened the meal. The meal was not turned into leaven but was affected by the leaven. 3. Tlie . leaven. In the Scripture leaven Is Invariably a type of evil (Exod 12:15. MatL 16:6, 12; I dor. 5:6- 8; Gal. 5:8, 9). The teaching of this parable, therefore, is that In this age the truth of Godi and the wholesome institutions established by God would be corrupted by error, worldliness, and unbelief. The woman representing the administrator of affairs in the world would introduce false doctrine and thus corrupt the children's bread. III. The Hid Treasure- (v. 44). 1. The field (v. 38) Christ's own Interpretation makes this to be the world. 2. The treasure. This doubtless means Israel, the chosen people (Ps. 135:4; Deut. 7:6-8). 3. The purchaser. Th’s represents Jesus Christ (John 3:16). 4. The purchase price (I Pet. 1:13, 19). This was the precious blood of Jesus Christ, God’s beloved Son.IV. The Merchantman Seeking Good ly Pear1Is (vv. 45. 46k L The merchantman is Christ (Luke 19:10). The Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was -IosL 2. The purchase price (Phil. 2:6-8). Christ impoverished himself In order to purchase the pearl of great price 3. The pearl of great price (CoL 1:18). This is not Jesus Christ but the Church purchased by his blood. V. The Dragnet (v. 47-50). 1. The sea. Sea In the Scripture denotes people and multitudes (Dan. 7:3; Rev. 47:15). 2. The dragnet cast into the sea (v. 47). This means the sowing of the Word by the Son of Man (v. 37). 3. The dragnet drawn to shone when full (v. 48). When God’s pur pose is made full concerning the pres ent age, an account, will be made. 4. The separation (w 48. 49). This separation Is made by the angels, and will take place at the end of the age. 5. The destiny (vv. 49-50). The an gels, God’s ministers, shall separate the wicked from among the just and shall cast them Into the furnace of fire where there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. The good shall be set aside for, the pleasure and service of the Lord, Love One Anotlier St John ssiys: "Brethren, let us love one another, for. love Is of God.” Matthew Arnold says a beautiful thing on the same matter, bnt from a differ ent angle. “Brethren,” he says. In ef- feeL “let us love .one another, for we have each other for such a short time.” Fifty Famous Frontiersmen By E L M O S C O T T W A T S O N Liberty The sweetest word In the language, next to love, is liberty. God and his "angels respect the perfect freedom of man. His a “National Monument” IT TOWERS nearly a thousand feet 4 above the surrounding country, a silent sentinel over the beautiful val ley of the North Platte river.

In 1828 they started for SL Louis to market their furs. A hundred miles up the river from the mountain Scott was taken ill and left behind with two trappers, Roi and Bissonette, who were to bring him down -the river by bull- boah But soon after they launched the clumsy crafL it upset and all their provisions and ammunition were IosL They managed to reach Laramie fork, 60 miles up the river from the moun tain where LeClerq and the-' others were to await their coming. They were half-starved and, leaving Scott in camp, the other two set out in ' search of food. Then they came across LeClerq’s trail and deliberately decided to follow it and leajve Scott to his Cate. When they overtook LeClerq they told him that Scott bad died, so he pushed on toward SL Louis. Back at his camp near Laramie fork the realization soon came to Scott that his friends had deserted him. So he set out to follow them. A year later Bissonette dnd old Joe Robideaux, seeking water from the spring that gushes from the south ern slope of Scotts Bluff, found a skeleton not far away. Froin the but tons on the fragments of clothing still clinging to the bones and from other trinkets- Bissonette ' recognized the skeleton as that of Hlram ScotL Then' the story of the betrayal of the trap per by his two comrades came out. Tradition is that Bissonette and Robi deaux buried the remains of Hlram Scott, there and from that day the sandstone;" mountain which had beeii the goal of his weary journey was known as Scotts Bluff. A few years ago a tract of 2,300 aeres surrounding it was set aside as a public reserve and this natural memorial to Hiram Scott became a “national monumenL” » » * “ 35 Batties— 35 Victories” a f ~>IOVERNOR of the state of Frank- t-J Iin; six terms governor of Tennessee; four times elected to con gress; a projector and hero of King's Mountain; 35 battles—35 victories; his Indian war cry was: ‘Here they are! Come on, boys, come on!’ ” Such is the inscription on one side of a monument In Knoxville, Tehn.. and it suras up the career of one of the most romantic figures In frontier his tory—that of John Sevier, “Noli- chucky Jack.” Born in Virginia in 1744 of a French Huguenot family, Sevier emigrated to James Robertson’s Watauga settlement in eastern Tennessee In 1773. Almost immediately the young Virginian be came a leader In various forays against hostile Indians. By his audacity and the swiftness and unexpectedness of his attacks on the. Indian towns, he broke the spirit of the Cherokees and their allies and prevented their being used b.v the British in a rear attack on the colonies during the Revolution. He used the same tactics in one of the most brilliant victories over the British during that war. He was one of the leaders of the mountain men In their, swift dash to trap Colonel Fer guson and his troops at King’s moun tain before they could receive aid from Cornwallis, an.d thus contributed to the victory at Yorktown. After the Revolution the Watauga settlement became an orphan. Neither North Carolina nor the new federal government seemed to want It. So In 1784 the settlers organized the inde pendent state of Franklin, a common wealth unique In American history, and elected “Nolichucky Jack” as thefr governor.' When North Carolina tried to assert its authority over the region again, the settlers resisted. Their governor was singled out for punishment, treacherously betrayed, captured and placed on trial at. Mor gantown, N. C., for high treason. And. at once more than 1,060 of the moun tain men assembled to rescue their beloved “Nolichucky Jack.” A civil way seemed ImminenL But Sevier made a spectacular escape from his captors and a short time later his people elected him to the North Carolina leg islature. There was some protest over seating him but eventually he was al lowed to tike office. - From that time on he was neveT long out of public life—as congress man from North Carolina, as. the first governor of the new state of Tennes see, and then repeatedly re-elected, , and thrice re-eleeted to Congress.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD ONE of the best and most beloved of the few remaining kings, Al bert I of Belgium, met a tragic death while practicing for his favorite sport, mountain climbing. He was attempting, alone, to scale a 90-foot pin nacle near Namur and fell, being probably instantly killed. Hours later his body was found and carried to Brussels. Queen Eliza beth was ill and was not told of the king’s death for some hours. The • Belgian nation King Leopold was plunged In genu ine mourning, and all the world sym pathized, for Albert had won high es teem by his heroism during the World war and his just government of his people. Albert is succeeded by Crown Prince Leopold, duke of Brabant, his eldest son. Leopold is thirty-two years old and was married in 1926 to Princess Astrid of Sweden. They have a daugh ter and a son. The new ruler was probably one of the youngest soldiers In the World war, enlisting as a pri vate when he was thirteen years old. He was treated as an ordinary soldier, seeing active service In the trenches, and was a sergeant when the armistice was signed. The dead king’s funeral was of course a stately affair. The procession from the Brussels palace to the cathe dral of SL Gudule was led by mounted gendarmes who were followed by British, Italian and French troops. Then came the Belgian troops with crepe-draped flags.- Albert’s personal colors were carried just ahead of the gun carriage that bore the casl ct, and his favorite charger followed, Ihe sid die empty and field boots reversed In the stirrups. Nest walked Crown Prince Leopold, his brother, Charles and their brother-in-law, Crown Prince Umberto of Italy, the latter carefully guarded by police because of the at tempt to assassinate him In Brussels in 1929. In the throng of notable persons In the processions were ‘ representatives • of all nations. Ambassador Morris was there for the United States; Pres ident Lebruu and Premier Doumergue headed the large French delegation; from England were the prince of Wales, Field Marshal Lord AUenby and Admiral Sir Roger Eeyes; Ger many was represented by Dr, Fried rich von Keller, and Poland by Ignatz Paderewski. Nest day Leopold was crowned, with Astrid on the throne beside him. The parliamentary reply to the new ruler’s speech from the throne thanked the new queen for having given birth to two children, insuring the perma nence of the dynasty. King Albert was the third of his line. He was born In 18T5 and as cended the throne in 1909. Through out the war he was one of the most active members of the Belgian army, continually at the front to help his troops and often In Imminent danger of death. After the armistice he got the task of reconstruction well under way and then, with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Leopold, took journeys to the United States, England, France, Spain. Brazil and other countries to study trade conditions and find new outlets for Belgian products. m C APT. ANTHONY EDEN is mov ing from capital to capital in Eu rope on the rather hopeless mission of reviving the disarmament negotiations. In Paris he was told by the seven big men of the French cabinet that France was un willing to reduce her military power while the Nazi menace con tinues, and the French government had al ready coldly refused to discuss the matter with Hitler “w h ile Germany is rearm- . . . ing." Concessions re- Antho"y Eden cently offered to -the German chancel lor had been met with inconclusive arguments, and with demands for a German army of 300,000 effectives, which France rejected. The most the French statesmen would say was that they “looked forward In a most gen eral manner tpward the possibility of an International accord, equally hoped for by both parties on the question of disarmament.” Discouraged but persistent, Captain Eden went on to Berlin and Rome for further conversations based on the British plan for, reduction of arma ments. • , FOR the time being the danger of a European war arising from the Aus trian Socialist rebellion is over. Great Britain, France and Italy, have united to safeguard Austria's independence, and while that holds no other nation dare attack. Long conversations were held In Paris by British,Ambassador Lord Tyrrell, Premier Doumergue, For eign Minister Louis Barthou, CapL An thony Eden, British lord privy seal, ' and representatives of Italy, and the outcome was this statement to the world: “The Austrian government has In quired of the governments of France, Great Britain and Italy as to their at titude with regard to a dossier, which It prepared with a view of establishing German interference In the internal affairs of Austria and communicated to them. The conversations which have ,taken place between the three governments on this subject have shown they take a common view as to the necessity of maintaining Austria’s Independence and integrity In accord ance with the relevant treaties.” This pronouncement was proposed by Premier Mussolini, who seeks to keep Austria intact as a buffer state between Naziism and Fascism. It is, of course, directed to Hitler, who hopes that the government of Chancel lor Dollfuss may be overthrown, if not by force* then In elections. T REIASURY reports reveal that all sources of internal revenue showed large increases during the first seven months of the present fiscal year as compared with the same period of 1933, with the exception of corporate income taxes. Total receipts for the seven months’ period ended January 31 amounted to $1,397,950,474, a gain of $566,708,061 as compared with the year before. For the seven months the govern ment’s collection of taxes on distilled spirits, wines, and beers amounted- to $120,547,399, as compared with $4,379,- 586 In the same 1932 period. SENTIMENT in favor of the Imme diate payment of the veterans’ bonus is so strong among the Demo crats in the house that the promise , of a veto by the Pres- ldent did not deter 145 ' representatives from signing a petition to take the Patman bill from the committee and bring it up for a vote on March 12. Speaker- - Rainey had been to the White House and returned with this message: ... , 'u- „ * “I amAuthorized by WrightPatman the President to say that this is not the time to pay the bonus and that he cannot approve any legislation to that effect” But the members went right on sign ing. Mr. Rainey was visibly disturbed, but said, in reply to inquiries, “We’re going to let the house do just as It pleases.” Wright Patman of Texas, Democrat, author of the bill, told the house the measure would provide the administra tion' with the mechanism for carrying out the inflationary program it al ready has embraced, and that it would save the government billions of dol lars In InteresL It seemed most likely that the bill would be passed by the house, and It may also get through the senate, for the ^sentiment for it has been steadily growing In that body. ACCORDING to the farm adminis tration, 400,000 farmers had signed contracts to reduce their pro duction of hogs and corn this year. Most of these contracts were executed by Middle West farmers. In other states the campaign Ib just getting wen started. Iowa leads with a total of 150,000 contracts, representing more than 80 per cent of corn and hog.pro- ducers In that- state. Figures, fo r oth er states are: Illinois, 47,006; Mis souri, 42,000; Nebraska, 22,000; Kan sas, 19,000; Minnesota, 56,000; Indiana, 30,000; Ohio, 25,000; WlIsconslnriSfOOO, and South Dakota, 13,000. .. .. , OFFICIALS of St. Paul and Minne apolis were considerably'-angered by a statement made by Attorney Gen eral Homer S. Cummings in which he said the Twin- cities were- “breeding grounds of crime,” Mayor Mahoney of St. Paul telegraphed to Mr.. Cum mings demanding that he amplify his charges, but the attorney general’s only reply was to say that he meant what he said. Thereupon the mayor gave the Ramsey county attorney a list of twelve persons, Including Mr. Cummings, whom he wished asked to appear before the grand jury, which Is now in session. It was said legal com plications probably would prevent the subpoenaing of the attorney general and other national officials. Colonel Lindbergh A S THE fighting planes of the American army, with their guns removed, began carrying the air mail over routes formerly covered by pri- I— vate air llne compa‘;,i!! nies, the senate com- m 111 e e investigating air mail contracts re sumed its in q u iry . The main witness was W a lte r F. B row n, postmaster g e n e ra l under President Hoo ver, who has been ac cused by his ■ succes sor of collusion and favoritism in the let ting of the contracts. Mr. Brown had de nied the charges in a long statement and In appearing before the committee he waived the immunity which general ly shields a congressional witness from subsequent prosecution. At the hearing Mr. Brown again denied the accusations in detail, but made admissions that were not fa vorable to the defense. Colonel Lindbergh, more or less in volved In the air mail affair, gave to the senate investigators a statement of his aviation profits, as follows: L From sale of warrants to pur chase stock'In the Pan-American Air ways, $150,884.80. 2. Salary from Pan-American, $10,- 000 a year. 3. Salaries of $7,194.45 In 1931 and $6,000 in 1932 and 1933 from. Trans continental and Western Air. ’ ' 4. From Transcontinental Air Trans port (predecessor to Transcontinental and Western Air), $250,000 Inil Cash, reinvested In that company’s stock and later sold at a $195,633.75 profiL . 5. A $10,000 a year salary as tech nical adviser to the Pennsylvania rail road for three years and a $1 a year salary since 1931. Losses: $554.75 from Investments In other aviation companies prior to 1930. O NLY seven members of the house voted In the negative when the $258,000,000,000 tax revision bill came up for passage. It is expected the senate will make many alterations In the measure for the purpose of fur ther fortifying the statutes against evasion. Of principal interest to the average taxpayer is the bill’s readjustment of the income tax rate structure to pro vide a new normal rate of 4 per cent and surtaxes starting at 4 per cent, on net Income above $4,000 and rang ing In graduated brackets to 59 per cent on incomes of $1,000,000 or more. The new tax rates, however, will not be effective on 1933 incomes. Generally the bill is designed to prevent such tax evasion methods as were disclosed during the recent In vestigations of the senate banking and currency committee into stock market practices. JUSTICE finally has caught up with Roger Touhy of Chicago and two members of his notorious gang. Their second trial for the kidnaping of John Factor ended In a verdict of guilty, the jury fixing the penalty at 99 years In the penitentiary. One Charles W. Mayo of Alabama, with an accomplice, devised a fantas tic plot for the kidnaping of E. P. Adler, banker and publisher of Daven port, Iowa, from a Chicago hotel Both were caught and confessed, and then Mayo hanged himself in his cell. The “snatching” game appears to be about played out G en. a u g u s to sandino, for years the leader of rebels In Nica ragua until a year ago when he made peace with President Sacasa1 was mur dered by members; of the national guard at Managua. His brother and two of bis aides also were killed. The crime was denounced by Sacasa and an investigation was ordered, for the I government had. guaranteed the lives ; of Sandino and his followers while In I the capital. YEN In a republic the people like to read about the doings of roy-- I alty, so there has been much Interest i In the romance of Prince Slgvard, ' twenty-six-year-old son of Grown Prince Gustav Adolf of Swe den. SIgvard. fell In love with Eriiia Pat- zek, a German film actress who is little know n and comes from a middle class family. The prince was determined to marry Erika but his grand father, King Gustav, refused his consent PpInce SigVard and told Sigvard he would be dis owned if he persisted In his plan. Nevertheless the young man, unable to get the necessary papers In Ber lin, went to London with Erika and It was reported the wedding would take place there on March 8. The prince Is well aware that If he marries the German girl he will for feit his royal rights and thenceforth will be just “Mr. Bernadotte,” but he apparently is ready to give up every thing for love. In 1932 his cousin, Prince Lennert, married the daughter of a Stockholm industrialist and is now known as Mr. 'Lennert Berna dotte. CvRANCE was stirred by a mystery " murder that is connected with the $60,000,000 Stavisky scandal Albert Prince, counselor of the Court of Ap peals and the key witness In the Sta- visky case, was lured from Paris and slain and his body was tied to a rail road track near Dijon and mangled by a train. • In the same connection, the Paris police announced they had discovered evidence that Stavisky was an inter national spy as well as a swindler; that he was aided by a number of women, and probably had sold valu able information to the German gov ernment IF JAPAN and Russia do not get into a war,- it will-be- the fault of nel-’ ther. The latest development In their growing hostility is a row over fishing ,rights in the north Pacific. The Jap anese government is enraged because Moscow has doubled the ruble rate of exchange with the yen and has reject ed Japanese bids on the Eamcbatka fishing grounds .based on the old rate. This, the Tokyo foreign office says, is a flagrant yiolation-of a solemn agreement between- Baron Shldehara, former foreign minister, and Alexan der Troyanovsky, former Soviet am bassador to Japan. © by W eatern N ew spaper UalolL National Topics Interpreted by WilHam Bruckart . Washington.—It has been just a year since Franklin Delano Roosevelt car ried his “new deal” A Year of the program into the Bx- ttNeto beal” recative Mansioli atN ew V ea ] Washington and the country has witnessed, In that time, many of the . most revolutionary changes in its economic and social and financial structure that could be im agined. Indeed,'In a nation that has a tradition of being largely conserva tive, some of the things that have hap pened, or have been brought about by the new dealers, could not even be imagined except by those who dwell In the house of the theorist But they have come; they- are with us, and without commendation or criticism, It is being asked: what have we? For one thing, In the past twelve months, we have observed the slowly stretching tentacles of the federal gov ernment reaching out into hitherto un known functions; we have seen those same tentacles taking over more and more the rights of individuals and of states and lesser divisions of govern ment, and we have witnessed what some persons hold to be an absolute destruction of that basic differene’e between one nation and a union of our several states. That.is, according to the view1 just set forth, we are for the period of the emergency at IeasL Just one people instead of peoples of the 48 states and the District of Columbia. Also, I think it is true that never In our history have we known a time when the President of the United States was possessed of such power either legally or politically, as now. In the preparation of this weekly letter, I consulted with men and wom en of thought and vision, and I believe there was no exception to the convic tion that none can accurately fore cast what the ultimate results of these changes are going to be. Economic and social changes are slow to mature into their full effecL It is natural that they should be. So it is going to be some years before we can know whether the theories and the plans of the new dealers will be accepted into the basic structure of American lives. Of one thing we can be sure: if all of the changes, or even half of them, are knitted. permanently into our so cial structure, the accomplishment of these last twelve months in that direc tion will have been greater; by. many times than the changes that have oc curred In any other century, indeed, in several centuries combined. Take, for example, the principles of NRA, AAA, and the others of the “al phabetical organizations.” Every one of them has injected into American life projects and propositions which were rejected in one form or another In their basic ideas in years gone by. Under the desperation of the depres sion, they were hurled into the whirl pool of our social structure with vary ing success, as measured by the re sults thus far. Nearly all of the prin ciples injected into the commercial lifeblood of the nation are of a char acter to promote group or unit action distinguished from individual action that was developed with the- opening up of American resources after forma tion Cf the Union. Wb never have known, for instance, a time when our government told business in so many words that it could work together as a unit,' if It met certain requirements, nor have we ever known a time when our government said to agriculture that it had to cut down its . produc tion in a monopolistic agreement In order to force higher prices. One could go on and on with illustrations. Now. to repeat the earlier question: what have we? * • * There is, and can be, little ,-doubt of economic progress in the last few months. The coun- Noticeable try has emerged Progress from the depression, to some extent at ,least. I believe no one can say with Assurance, however, that we are far enough on the road to recovery that we can be sure of no relapse. But those persons who are best In. a posi tion to appraise conditions certainly feel there has been a gain. As to the cause of this ImprovemenL one can pick up an argum'ent almost anywhere. The ardent supporters of the new deal assert the Rosevelt poli cies are responsible, while thdse op posed to the Roosevelt policies claim there is a probability that some'or all of the progress made came from the natural wearing out of the depres sion. That Is, history records the. same course for all depressions. Stocks and supplies are exhausted and pro duction starts up of its own accord to meet the demand. So we are starting in on a second year of the new deal, as I see the pic ture, still uncertain as to the outcome bpt equipped with greater confidence than obtained among the rank and file of the people a year ago. It will be recalled how many times President Roosevelt has said, In presenting new items in his, new deal that here was something else to try. He has experi mented. The law of average might seem to indicate that part of them will work, and obviously a part of them have Ijeen influential In the economic progress that has been made: But’ who can say with assurance which they were and how much influence each had? It is my conviction that anyone Attempting to make an unqual ified-statement of these results at this time is either biased or inclined to stupidity. : Human nature has changed slowly through the centuries. * *, * While we are looking into the ex tent to Which the Roosevelt policies have carried the fed- W ide Powers eral government In • c— u /. l l—0 individual affairs, itfor W allace fe prop?r t0 call at. tention to the. far-reaching, even sen sational, proposal to give Secretary of Agriculture Wallace authority to con trol the amount of cotton that may be produced each year. The legislation, known as the Bankhead b ill Is un doubtedly the most important prop osition yet devised for extending fed eral power, because it not only in vades rights hitherto respected but it provides the secretary of agriculture with power to force cotton farmers to obey his orders in limiting the cotton production. Succinctly, the Bankhead bill with which congress is now wrestling would limit the production of cotton in the United States to nine million bales for the crop year of 1934-35, and In order to prevent the production of a greater amount there -is a destructive sales tax provided for application to the surplus. The tax Is fixed at twelve cents a pound for the amount In ex cess of nine million bales, and that figure, of course, is higher than the value of the cotton Itself. To enable the secretary of agriculture to control the production, each farmer who planted cotton would have to obtain from the secretary what is described as a certificate of exemption for the amonnt he intended to produce. That is to say, the farmer would be given a certificate exempting so many pounds of cotton from the operation of the sales tax, and it Is presumed that the certificates of exemption will be issued only for the required amount From this brief outline, it must be apparent that never before has there been such a drastic proposal for con trol of individual businesses of men in this country. .Under the present crop reduction plans, the proposition is voluntary. There Is a contractual arrangement into which the producer voluntarily enters.-But under the new proposal, the limitation is placed directly in the hands of the secretary of agri culture and be is: given power at the same time to see that his decisions as to total production and restrictions are obeyed. I have heard all of the arguments favorable to the bill and some of them against IL but none of them have made clear to me what can be done In poor crop years or in years when there is a bumper crop. What I mean is this: the total for the crop year of 1934- 35 Is fixed at nine million bales on the acreage of a “normal” or average year. But assume there is especially favorable weather In the year and the production is far above the aver age, then will the farmer be penalized by having to destroy that part of his crop In excess of the amount'stated on his certificate of exemption? Or what bebefits will he gain when nature has smiled on his crop^ » * * There is also the converse of the proposition. Assume there is another drought of 1930 pro- On the portions and the cot- /-»,« u ___1 ton crop is virtuallyO ther Hand destroyed How I8 the cotton producer going to be re- warded'for having reduced his acre age, and where will the country get Its supplies of cotton? Obviously, a short crop will enhance the price. Yet with a small acreage, will the farmer get even, a fair return from the high er prices? . Secretary Wallace of the Departr ment of Agriculture called attention to another possible result of the bill. He told a congressional committee that he feared there would be a reg- nlar business of dealing In exemption certificates develop from that feature of the bjlL One can only guess where that would lead. Mr.: Wallace said that the value of the exemption certificates obviously Would fluctuate' along with the rate of the tax on the excess, and the higher the rate of the tax the greater would be the value of the exemption certi ficate. “In so'far as the exemption certi ficates are of high value,” he said, “there “may be a tendency to shift the emphasis from cotton production to an emphasis on procuring of exemp tion certificates. These certificates themselves '-might become- a com modity.. This could mean that various persons who In the past have engaged in tbe-production -of, cotton and would be entitled to exemption certificates, may prefer to remain out of cotton production and to rely for part of their Income normally received from cotton; upon the sales values of their exemption certificates.” x The secretary likewise pointed to yltaV spot-In the statement that there was no due allowance made I * soil' conditions or ,,aat^erI between the north and south Unea of the cotton bett, and other such purely local phases. © by Weetern Newspoiwr BnSoa. s u r e th iNg kins a I „ Kerry’s I dated packages.

Here’s an old newspaper classic however, garbed a little differently than the old stand-by of yesteryear: Sam Smith is dead. Some days ago he wa3 stricken with poisoning from a wound in the neck while fighting with his wife when he was drunk. Doctors Grindle, of Eureka, and Butts of Anyoldville’ were in attendance, but despite their utmost efforts the poison spread until as a Jast resort they used the knife. The operation was of no avail, however, and now he ain’t here any more. Sam was a unique character. Only -once in a generation is a community pestered with such a human viper, sneh a moral X; he was the unsolved conundrum, ‘What is he good for?’ H is only virtue was the stability of Iiis unrepentance. Boozc-fighter, liar, wife-beater, chicken thief, egg stealer, dope fiend profane and vile - o f speech to the point of nausea, he ■was the trademark of sin the senti ment emblem of vice, with no crime Ibut work beyond his capacity. He was seen even worse, but he has gone hence, and it is never our incli nation to kick a man when he is down. Yet at his death his proverbial luck was with him He goes below just as the whitening frosts and chilling winds are'ushering in a long and tedious season for the good who are left. And as often the case when in life and in jail, he will keep warm and comfortable at other’s expense. Well, so long, Sam. and so long as it is long, good luck. Notice To Creditors.

Barli N U M B ER 34 Jonas Tells Them. Thomas Jefferson, the founder of the Democratic party stated as one of its cardinal doctorines that “ the country is best governed when least governed.’’ How does that stack tip with the present program when the.government has its nose in everj- private affair of every citizen of the Republic? Jefferson -also declared “ States Rights” to be a fuuda mentarprineiple of his party. Be hold- now that party endeavoring..to obliterate.the states as effectiveij as H itler is doing iu Germany while politicians from every state stand around the public treasury in Washington with hat in hand say ing r G im m e” Instead of the people supporting the Government and the Government letting the affairs of the people alone in keep ing with the American theory, we are approaching the day when the people w ill be fed with a dole- from the public treasury and every thing I the people have w ill be taken Over by the government. We are dangerously near today to State Socialism! For the first time iu the history of the Republic the legislative de partment of the government has ceased to, function and has abjectly surrendered its powers to the ex ecutive department. Legislation of vital and far reaching national im port is not only dictated but draft ed bv the executive department and railroaded through Congress with out even a semblance of orderly con sideration and high officials in. .the administration, .have boldly stated that the Judicary will- jhesitajteV.fOi incur ’the'i’d ilp ^ ^ ? S ^ /tE h "a d d ru - istration by questioning legislation In support of the “ New Deal.” By the way, it is significant that the term “ New Deal” is the borrowed title of a book written before the lastcampaignby a socialist of inter national renown. It is also signifi cant that E aa ia Goldman, no torious world leader of_ the an archists, who was driven from our shores in the Wilson administration because of her pernicious advocacy of the overthrow of the American Government, is again in America peddling her anti government poison, by grace of special permis sion of the.State Department of the present administration. Abraham Lincoln truly stated that “ This nation cannot survive half slave and half free.” It is equally true that the nation cannot survive.as a republic "all slave ” This nation, was. made great and prosperous and free, not by politi cal dictators usurping power and control-over the private lives and affairs of the people, bat by the in domitable courage and initiative of a people grounded in the faith of rugged individualism and freedom of legitimate effort and fired by the American principle of the-right of men t-o enjoy the .fruits of honest endeavor th rift, and . enterprise. To the extent that the right o f private property and the enjoyment 0* the reasonable returns from its ownership and management- has. been curtailed, we have approached a svstem of state-sociplism and en. daogejed the American system es tablisbed by the fathers — Extracts from a speech by National Com- mitteman Chas. A . Jonas. Base Discrimination. Editor This and That: I have been thinking for sevferaf days that I would w rite you ;pud try. to prevail-on you to use your columns to benefit this great moun tain section of ours. • ’ | ? I read ia the papers where M rl Roosevelt, our President, has tsei up commissions of different kinds to assist our. people, Some of these commissions, of course,- have operat' ed in this Territory and perhaps certain classes of our people havf- been benefiitedy but there is' Om. class that has been overlooked en-"’ tirely. The government has help ed the farmers, especially the cot ton and tobacco farmer,' by paying hem to plow up their crops, the in ■ tention of which: is to eliminate, over-production. Now, M r. Editor as far back asT can remember, and I believe as far .back as you can IneT member, our mountain county ha* been noted for i ts moonshine and lyiie have been talked about from, one end of the country to the othfr, about our moonshine whisheys, and I have my first time I ever hear ’1q1 an outsider saying it was not good! I have not seen in your paper any thing whereby this class has been helped in any wav. Don't you be lieve that we ought Io petition The government to set up a commission whereby they would be authorized to go to each one ot our moonship ers and say to him that we are going to pay you so much money' if yoii cut up and discontinue at least bug- third or one fourth of the whiskey you are now making? This wOnM ;t them, to, buy Jce and” reduce the McCrary Resignation Effective June 30. Washington,—Having been re quested to do so by the department of justice, J. R McCrary has tender- ed his resignation ps district attorney in the middle district, to-take effect June 30. It was said today that no fault had been found with the Tnan- Uor in which Mr. McCrary had dis- 'fnehr^and* reduce the amount of liquor made and it would, be. better;, they-would get a better price'for it. they would be benefited, and the people who buy i.t, and' drink it wOald be benefited, and our repu tation away from home would come back into its own. Now if we had any tobacco- or cotton farmers I would' not make this request, but as you know, there is very little if any, tobacco or cotton raised in the great coun ty of Wilkes, or any other of our mountain counties. ' Of course, I would not expect the government or anyone else to help our people if they do not agree to see to it that their products were tax^paid in ac cordance with the laws of the United States government. I think some' thing ought to be done about this, don’t you?—W . B. J , in Wilkes Journal. The Magic Current. One is reminded by experiences through which some of our; neigh boring cities have been passing that the electric switch comes near being the magic key to present mechanical civilization. Greensboro, Winston-Salem, High Point, and surrounding coromuni ties could eloquently testify to the vital niche which electric current fills in the modern order of life. They went without it a day or two due to the phenomenal glaze that the weather pitched over themT breaking- down the transmission lines felling treen and otherwise creating dain age that'is estimated to run.into the hundreds of .thousands, ' > - ■ Without electricity! ' People walkiug to the top-floors of tall buildings because elevators were: idle; newspaper plants silent because, the dynamos were,inactive. .- Factories standing still for lack of power; kitchens with non-productive stoves, and over’ the vast "(creations of modern device'end convenience'of living a pall of sirerice fallihg because no currentwas coining iri! Qne cah'easiiy imagine the- plight of such communities when .'deprived of such yital source of their mechani- crl energies.;. Andone,: indeed ,-must go through the experience-of being Would Lead Us Back To Sanity. Former Senator George H. Mosec of New Hampshire, Republican leader of the U. S. Senate who went Iown in the Roosevelt landslide in 1932, made his first important ad* dress at Boston before t he Middlesex !republican Club, the past week, in which he branded President Roose velt. as an apostle of' tile German Karl M arx aud his administration the “ march of Moscow.” Concluding his long address which was halted frequently by bursts of applause, the former Sena- toi said he would navd the Repub Heap party 1 create a new and bet ter organization of its high com mandin the states and in the nation would have it select young and virile and attractive candidates and would have it storm the redoubts of the entrenched opposition with a OBnner at its head which would read ’Back to sanity.’ ” The tenor of the Moses challenge to Tbe administration— a challenge which the speaker obviously hoped would rafly nation-wide Republican action, was summed up in the fol lowing remarks made near the end of the address: “ For myself, Mr. President, I- have no sympathy’ with the defeat ist argument- which constrains so many Republicans. I freely ad mit the federal treasury at its com mand and which shows so little modesty in employing it for parti satg-gain. - But.a party ,like ours,, which.has shown.; itself to possess fif|i^ fe f|M p h ^ ^ d ^ rent^in; the tace^Ftne^m o^aclverse pofitibal circumstances which have ever con fronted ; a partisan organization since the davs immediately follow ing: the W ar Between the States, is a party of which it can be'said, it did not arise yesterday and, it will' not die tomorrow.” — E x. - Practical Preaching. As a result of two sermons in Raleigh last Sunday, the police of that city have put one thriving boot legger under arrest and are on the trail of other, flagrant violators of the law. Dr. j . Powell Tucker, pastor, of the First. Baptist Church, and D r. Fdw in.,McNeili Poteat, pastor of Pullen Memorial Baptist Church, fired simultaneous broadsides against, bootleggers and bawdy bouses, and offered to furbish names of their-informants, Raleigh’s chief of police got busy Monday and the result at this w rit ing is the closing up of at least one bootlegger’s place of. business in highly respectable section of the Capitol City. A littlem ore such intensely practi cal preaching as this might mean a new deal for-law enforcement in Raleigh, And; it would do no harm in other cities of North Carolina.— Winston Journal.

The next day after, the air mail contracts were cancelled Lindbergh lent, a hot telegram to President. Roosevelt protesting against the un justness of his action. - It follows: "Your action of yesterdar affects fundamentally the industry to which Ihavedevoted the last 12 years of ■ny. life. - Therefore I respectfully oreseat to you the following consid eration. “ The personal and business lives of American citizens have been up around the right of just trial before conviction. Your order of cancel lation of air mail conviction. Your order of cancellation of. all - air mail- contracts condemns the largest por tion of our aviation without just trial. ' ' “ The officers of a number of the. organizations effected have not been given the opportunity to a hearing and improper acts by many, com panies have not been established. No one can rightfully object to drastic action being taken provided the guilt is first establisoed but.it is the right of anv Ainerican individual or organization to receive fair trial. “ Your present action does not dis criminate between innocence and ghilt and place no premium on honest business. “Americans have set their lives in buiJdii^lfl?jThis:.countryTheJftnest 'Commercial air lines in the world. The United States today is ' in the lead in almost every branch of com mercial aviation. • , . “ In American we have commercial aircraft, engines, equipment and air Iines superiortothose of any other c mntry. Tbe greatest part of this progress has brought about through the air mail.' CertainJy most in dividuals in the industry believe that this development has been car ried on in co-operation with the ex isting government and according to law. I f this is not the case, it seeirs the right 'Of the industry and in keeping with American tradition that facts to the contrary Be defi nitely established. -Unless these facts have no alternative, condem nation of commercial aviation by cancellation of all mail contracts and the use of the army, on commercial air lines will unnecessarily and Ttreat- Iy damage all- American aviation.” Andwhat a storm this Lindbergh telegram to Roosevelt-raised. Every little two by nine Democrat in the country shouted that Lindbergh had been discourteous to the President in giving out the text of the telegram before it reached the White House Does any one suppose that the public would have ever seen it had ifn o t been made public by Lindbergh? OheEarIy. one of the numerous Roosevelt secretaries and who seems to be the press agent for Roosevelt comes out with a squawk saying that Lindbergh sent the telegram for publicity purposes. This is calculat ed to make one utter a loud guffaw- when one remembers the publicity that has attended the Roosevelt ,out. fit since it came into the White House. “ Miss” Eleanor crashes the front pages nearly -every day ai.d every week her face and her; voice , is seeh on the screen.

Of course the Ideal solution of the problem Is a coat and a suit. There are times when a coat is absolutely indispensable, and smart ly clad Indeed Is she wtib tops a dash ing midseason print frock with an ad vance spring coat which flaunts the latest touches. As for a suit, with a good supply of tuned-to-time-au.d-place blouses (some strictly tailored, others as feminine and frivolous as frilly jabots and lacy details can make them) it Is as re current a springtime theme as the “first robin.” Speaking of blouses re minds us of a fad which is going the rounds. It is the blouse made of vivid bandana kerchiefs. The girlish suit of quality-kind grayish green flannel in the picture is one of those refined types which are making widespread appeal this sea son. Its outstanding claim to high fashion is the fact that it Is a raglan type and ntmost emphasis is being placed on these loose unbelted ef fects. As to coats there is a lot being said and done in regard to furless types for spring. These gain distinction through artful fabric manipulation which achieves shapely lines through Ingenious seamings and queer little turns and quirks of the cloth which result in unusual necklines, likewise clever shoulder and sleeve silhouettes. While the two coats illustrated give the impression of extreme sim plicity, In the final analysis they are ever so revealing as to actual style trends. The thing to observe about the coat to the left is its clever collar and scarf combination. This is In keeping with the Idea prevailing among designers that if a coat be fur- less there really ought to be some sort of scarf treatment In evidence. There is another message conveyed to this model, namely the vogue for trim ming touches of velvet on the spring cloth coat. In the coat pictured vel vet goes fifty-fifty with cloth for the wide single scarf end. There are also velvet cordings at the waistline and on the sleeves. The notable thing about the other coat in the picture Is that it carries rather a boyish air. It seems the younger clientele are hav ing their coats fashioned somewhat after the lines of their brothers and what’s more they are topping their boyish coats with felt hats which sug gest masculine derby and fedora in fluence. The picture gives the idea. Note the self-fabric scarf. The sleeves are Interesting in that they gain their shapely mid-arm fullness through a perfectly tailored seaming at the el bow. In a general survey one Is brought to realize that coats for girls In their teens divide into two distinct classes. On the one hand there are the very sporty models and In contrast there are the ladylike dressier types which are eminently refined and genteel looking. For the former, ravishing tweeds are cited in colors which gladden the heart in their youthful gaiety. When it comes to monotone tweeds there is a grayed green which is the hit of the season. Soldier blue, which is lighter than navy, is als- proving a great favoriate. And-if you are wanting to look every inch voguisb you will choose a plaid wool for youi early spring coat. Plaids are all tht rage for suits as well. So also ar< checks. * © by Western Newspaper Union.

The two- piece dress, for example, an ultra-prae- t’jal frock, is back after an absence of several years. There are no extravagant changes. Badical sleeves have- gone. Every thing has a normal shoulder line, or, in suits, a simple raglan shoulder. The silhouette Is still slender, with curyes, but the waistline is a little slimmer, and more fitted than before. Lengths have not changed. Spring Shoe Style* Two new heels are slated for a spring premiere In the shoe fashion world- Strictly speaking, one of these isn’t new, but a return of the very tall Venetian heel—taUer than Amer lean women have worn for sixteen years. The other Is hardly a heel at all. It’s a cotillion slipper, practi cally heelless, and is expected to be nnnular with-tall women.

Howe About: Poorhouse Author Misbehaving A Big Man’s Fam ily - ©, Bell Syndicate.—WNU Servtc*. - B yED H O W E I HAVE received an unusual letter * from a man I do not know, and who Uves in a distant state; He says: “You once wrote that a bobk entitled •The Autobiography of a Failure' might meet public favor. I enclose an attempt at'such writing, and, as a preliminary, tell you my qualifications. I spent ten years In an insane asylnm, but was never discharged as cured. Atipresent I am In a poorhouse, and half blind, In addition to being some what palsied and rheumatic. I am sirty-four years old, and have never married. . My manuscript was typed by am: er inmate of the poorhouse where I live!” Probably no editor would consider this writing for publication, as It is carelessly written and arranged, bnt I beUeve any of them would read it, as I did. • Curiously - enough,' this author Is conservative, and quotes with ap proval some of the most noted writers of historywho have denounced radical ism. He grumbles at the rich a good deal, but admits the ordinary facts of Ufe with considerable intelligence. Altogether, I do not beUeve this man Is insane, or ever has been; he dis plays, Indeed, more than average sense -In his thinking. I think his trouble Is failure to properly manage his mind and his body, which Is the fault of millions of other unfortunates. I have not been more interested In a writer In many years At times he Is almost brilliant in his observations; nowhere Is. he viilgar or foolish, but frequently commonplace,, as all are outside or in side of poor houses or insane asylnms. In the unexpurgated edition of the Memoirs is printed a letter Silerlus once wrote; Apparently the corre spondent had written that he was handicapped In life because of his having been divorced, of his drinking a good deal, and being known as an atheist. In his reply Silerius said: “I have been divorced twice, but, long after I am as well thought of by my neighbors as either of the women I divorced; and both are good women. I am an atheist, but neither has that Injured me. I have experimented free ly with liquor, and solved the problem by quitting both drinking and talking about the subject. I do not believe you state your real problem In writ ing to me. Mine Uasj always been to better manage my own mind and body, and thus gain the respect of those with whom I associate In small and freat things." »' • • -There is argument as to whether my preaching is sound. I wish it to be, and to say I am occasionally com mended. A man thirty-five years old recently wrote me: “I have liked your articles for some years, but the finest, most beneficial sermon that ever reached me (and my father was a clergyman) was printed lately. You said: ‘The ambition to behave, sound ly based on the selfish (not noble) knowledge that It is finally the best and easiest way, will supply all the human service a human can hope foi” ,.I think I now understand what you have tried so well to make plain, to-wit: that actually It is a stubborn fact, counting the after costs in con science, disrupted plans, shocked nerves, time lost forever, and injury to others, good behavior Is easier than misbehavior. I thank you, sir. for help In my weak endeavor to become a better man.” » • • A noted Big Man lately appeared at an airport with his wife, a son of four teen and a daughter of seventeen. The Big Man was rushing from one Im portant duty to another, and chafing at the delay of forty minutes, when a reporter found him. The Big Man loved publicity, and talked freely. He had enormous ideas, very much better than professional writers put into books and magazines. But members of his family were tired of his talk. “Start fanning,” said the Impudent boy; “dad’s turned on the hot air.” The wife and daughter, expressed al most equal impudence and disapprov al of the Big Man’s talk. . . . I re call that, when a child, we were all very tired of my father’s talk, we heard it so much, and It was always the same. But we were poor people; I had supposed that Big Men talk so wisely that members of their own fam ilies listen with awe and interest It seems they do not We are commanded to love all alike. Including our enemies, blit I often sin, and confess I have favorites. Some peo ple annoy me so much and unneces sarily Icannot love'them; a few oth ers Trestt- me well,' and I special ly like them. . . . And I think Fm right about It ; I do not believe the command that I love my enemies as well as mv friends had any great au thority back of It. • * • Every morning I feel fine -and ener getic and determined to do a lot tbat day on the Great Book I am engaged In writing But after looking over the mall, scribbling a few things of no Importance, and attending to the usual complications that arise In a life be tween seven and ten o’clock of a usual morning, I am worn out, and pnt it off agafn until tomorrow.

By EDW ARD W . PIC K A R D DEATHS of five army, aviators HHcd In operations connected with the carrying of the air mail have supplied the Republicans with ammu nition ..for attacking the adm inistration that they are not neg lecting. P re s id e n t Roosevelt himself is distressed by the cas ualties. and It Is be lieved his supporters I' ‘ J S t " A l wiU hasten t0 offer Ink congress a bill, giving Bk the air mail contracts i back to private com- ’ ■" p a n I e s. Postmaster J. A. Farley QgoeraI Farley has had to shoulder the greater share of the blame, if blame there is, and though he has steadily defended the cancellation of the contracts, he prob ably would be glad to see the army air corps relieved of its new task. There is no question as to the courage and ability of the army flyers, but It Is evident they have not had the peculiar training to fit them for carrying the mails, and their airplanes ; are not suitable for the work. Of course, the weather has been against them, but little attention is paid to that fact by those who ace making political capital out of the deaths of the five. Mr. Farley, appearing before the sen ate committee investigating air mail affairs, declared that no one deplored the fatalities- more than he, but that the Post Office department had felt it must cancel the contracts and had acted on the basis of the law and the conditions under whi.ch it found the contracts had been made. He assured the committee that as rapidly as pos sible the department would work out a new policy in the public interest with respect to the air mail and would take into account the interests of the oper-' ators. The postmaster general had been summoned especially to confront his predecessor, Walter F. Brown, and- to consent to Mr. Brown’s repeating a re mark he said Mr. Farley had made to him about Senator Hugo L. Black, chairman of the committee. This was: "He’s just a publicity ’ hound. But don’t tell anybody I said so, because I’ve got to get along with him." Mt. Farley immediately denied that he had said any such thing, and, scarlet faced, he departed for New York amid roars of laughter. His de nial was necessary, doubtless, but it didn’t seem to Impress anyone. Speaker Rainey says the army air corps is inefficient and poorly trained, and for this he blames the three pre vious Republican administrations. He Indicated he would support a resolu tion already approved by the house rules committee calling for investiga tion of War department methods. Maj. Gen. Ben Foulois. chief of the Army Air corps, defended his men warmly. IlJ OW the President proposes to car- A-L ry on the relief program was re vealed at a press conference. „ In ad dition to continuation of the CWA in cities, relief of distressed families, in rural regions Is to be placed on a new basis, and the government Is to undertake the transportation of entire communities from non-operating coal mine localities and similar centers of unemployment to the subsistence homestead colonies which’ are being created jvith $25,000,000 of public works funds. ■ In rural regions families in distress are to be helped to raise enough food for subsistence and to get part time employment In industries and on road building and other public works. Communities of miners, out of work because of the closing. down of coaJ mines, the President calls “stranded populations.” They, were,left !stranded when work gave out and there is. no- prospect of a resumption of mine op erations. In', most, cases -the mines have been exhausted. The President, said the undertaking would be to move an appreciable ■ number of such fam ilies to-localities where they earn main tain themselves on small tracts of land with incidental industrial.employ ment, which is the subsistence home stead idea now being tried out at Reedsville. W. Va. Concerning that Reedsville plant, a pet of Mrs. Roosevelt’s, it; is Interest ing to. read that the house refused by a margin of 165 votes to approve the construction and operation there of a factory to make post office furniture. The project was denounced as “a plunge Into state socialism." PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT In a spe- 1 clal message asked congress to cre- , ate a new federal commission to regu late the wire, cable and radio- com munications systems. He proposed that- the new commission take over the duties of the federal radio: commission and,-the functions of the Interstate Commerce commission which deal with telegraph and telephone regulation. Mr. .Roosevelt said the new body should be given "full power to Inves tigate and study the bdslness of exist ing companies and make recommenda tions to the congress for additional legislation at the next1 session." This means that if, the President’s desires are carried oat, as they un doubtedly will be, the question of com munications mergers will go over for determination next year. Senator SchaII of Minnesota, Repub lican, was ,aroused to strong, protest against the proposed commission, as serting that it meant the newspapers would be subjected to censorship by the administration and that “not one word of the skullduggery committed In Washington could reach the people of the United States.” THEflEtE are signs indicating that the administration is going to mod ify its stand and that of its predeces sors concerning the war debts. Some Republicans In the senate tried to put through a resolution offered by Rob inson of Indiana asking the President, if not Ineompdtible with public inter est, to inform the senate by what agreements he had accepted token pay ments, from Great Britain, Italy and Czechoslovakia and had recognized them as not in default It also asked what steps, if any, have been taken to induce defaulting nations to pay; whether any understandings have been reached concerning revision; and whether any assurances have been given linking debt payments with tariff concessions. The Democratic leadership in the senate succeeded In having the reso lution sidetracked into the foreign re lations committee. Senator Robinson of Arkansas made a speech openly re ferring to the necessity for some fur ther concessions on the part of the United States if any farther payments are to be obtained, but he denied *hat negotiations looking to revision had taken place yet. The vote on the motion to commit the resolution showed there has been a considerable change from the opin ion held in the senate in December, 1931, when the Hoover moratorium resolution was passed successfully only after it bad been amended to In clude a reservation reiterating con gress’ unalterable opposition to re vision or cancellation of the debts! THREE export-Import banks are. to be set up to help American' ex porters to finance shipments abroad, and George N.

By direction of Japan. Henry Pu-yi, who in his infancy was the “boy emperor” of China, and who has been the chief executive of Manchukuo, has been enthroned as-emperor of that pnppet state. The young man—he •is twenty-eight — as sumed the name of Eang Teh, which be- , Ing Interpreted Is “tranquillity, and vir tue.” He probably Is 'virtuous,, b u t th e tranquillity is prob lematical In view of the way Japan and Russia are snarling at each other, for If those nations go. to war the scene of the conflict will be the newly established empire which used to be Manchuria.

SECRETARY OF WAR DERN, prob ably following the'Ideas’ of Gener- -al MacArthtir, chief of staff, told the military affairs committee of the house that he was decidedly opposed to cori- gresslonal plaits for ah" Independent and greatly enlarged air corps. • He was arguing against two bills' Intro duced by the committee providing for the purchase of 4,384 military air planes and for the°separation of ,the army air corps from the jurisdiction of the general staff! and the granting to officers and- enlisted men of the Mr corps special compensation and rank. , Mr. Dern held that the air corps was only a co-ordinate part of the army, that its flying officers and men were not heroes of glory any more than the’ infantry and the artillery, that the whole army'organization must proceed in-: balance and that the air corps has had more than Its rightful share of progress In recent years.

H I O NGE more the tariff comes np as a leading issue, for, the President has sent to congress a-request for new powers permitting him to fix the tariff within wide limits. The legislation he( asks Is designed to expand trade and would give the Chief Executive author ity to shift the tariff up or 'down by as much as 50 per cent so that reci procal tariff treaties with other na tions may be negotiated. Furthermore, these treaties would not have to be confirmed by the senate, apd the tariff commission would not be consulted. The new authority would (be limited to three; years and no article could be placed on the free list or removed from it It was predicted that many Republicans and some Democrats would oppose the scheme, but that it would get through congress after long debate. « UNDER the management of Gen. - Hugh Johnson, the NRA opened a series of public hearings in Washing ton, open to ail individuals and or ganizations that wanted to present suggestions. or-complaints concerning policies or administration of the NRA codes. The possible benefits, from such bearings appeared to' be lessened by the restrictions decreed by General Johnson. He ruled that all speakers should be considered as “witnesses”; that only facts might be presented, and that no argument would be per mitted. General Johnson opened the proceed ings by admitting NRA. had many faults that he hoped would be correct ed. Then came the florid of complaints, starting with those of small business, men who assert the codes have oper ated against them and in favor of-the large concerns. Mrs. Pinchot, wife of the governor of Pennsylvania, unex pectedly appeaVed and declared the government had been defeated by the “steel trust,” and. she was supported by Edward F. McGrady,: assistant sec retary of labor. Mrs. Pinchot" said that in the cases of the big steel com panies the workers had been betrayed by the NRA, and she made a bitter personal attack on General Johnson. Next day the cause of labor was brought more prominently to the front by Mr. McGrady and others who de clared employers had been evading the code provisions at the expense of their employees. CRITICS DENOUNCE NRA AT CONFERENCE D e c l a r e S m a l l B u s i n e s s J s t h e S u f f e r e r . Washington.—Called forth by Re covery Administrator Johnson himself, a storm of denunciation broke over NRA. 'From industry, labor and consum ers came criticism and charges asr the “conference of complaints’1-got under way.The meetings will continue day and night until all who seek to be heard have been heard. The greatest complaint was that the small business suffered to the gain of the big one, that relaxation of govern ment control of monopolies had starved small concerns to help build the great ones. General Johnson launched the crit ical review of the codification pro gram by setting forth twelve weak links in the NRA chain which, he said, required immediate attention. In characteristic fashion, Johnson struck at “sniping” and “furtive In nuendo,” but welcomed into the NRA “arena of controversy” any one with constructive criticism. ■ *„ ■ The assertion that NRA has resent ed or ignored criticism he ridiculed as “an absurd and howling irony on an organization which has made vibrant ,'criticism, the breath, of its life.” , Industry’s cr||tieal appraisal of the. government’s recovery program was voiced by George H. Houston, presi dent-of the Baldwin Locomotive works. Speaking for the National Associa tion of Manufacturers, he warned that “the replacement of obsolete facilities and the opening ■ up of new ventures will be undertaken by private enter prise only in anticipation of a profit” One of the familiar complaints, which had been aired frequently In recent-weeks, by Senators .Borah and Nye, was that the small electrical manufacturers had been squeezed out by the General Electric company. Sam M. Jones, representing, the Incandescent Lamp Manufacturers’as sociation. reiterated the charges.

CvNGLAND is proverbially lenient *-* with agitators of all kinds, but when thousands of unemployed from all parts of, the country marched into London and were reinforced by other thousands of the idle in the metropolis and hordes of Communists, the police took steps to prevent dangerous out breaks. The throng held, meetings in Hyde Park and 3,000 Scotland Yard men were on hand to keep them curbed, while the entire police force was mobilized At its stations. At first only two men were arrested, for making seditious speeches.: They were Tom Mann, veteran Communist, and Harry Plilitt, of the same ilk. An icy rain helped the authorities to preserve or, der during the great mass meetings in. the park, but serious trouble was anticipated late in the week. The demonstrators wanted to call on Prime Minister MacDonald, but he re fused to receive them, explaining that the house of commons was handling the unemployment situation. The marchers were protesting against'the condition of the unemployed generally and also against certain features of the bill before parliament Their ora-- tors attacked members of the .royal family but were careful riot to mention the king.

Ftbm the undercurrent of information around Washington, one can readily believe that questions of policy may become.the focal point of the current controversy. While the packers may fold up their tents, admit some of the charges and not fight back any fur ther, the situation is fraught with pos sibilities of politics that lead directly to an attack on Roosevelt administra tion New Deal policies. Fundamental ly, these questions involve determina tion of how far the people want their national government to manage busi ness affairs. It is unfair, of course, to hold that , the ten big packers are guilty of com bined effort at manipulation of prices or machinations to drive out competi tion In-certain sections Of the country, solely because some officials of the De partment of Agriculture made the charges. It. is likewise unfair to hold the packers have clean records be cause the charges were made by some of the officials of the . department that was described by members of congress as being “ full of Communists.” It is a fact that the packers have been dragged into court before on similar charges, arid it is also admitted that there are some officials In Uie Depart ment of Agriculture who are so radi cal as to be desirous of seeing private business destroyed. With these facts in mind, it is well to recall also that in the last several months there has been smoldering sen timent that the federal government is going too far in directing the affairs of private individuals. A good many observers here believe that the charges now renewed against the meat pack ers, after fifteen years of comparative quietude In this direction, will precipi- tate a political fight over the main question of how far the government ought to go. That is to say, some think the packer controversy will bring the larger question to a head. There was a plain disposition on the part of most persons to withhold criti cism of the Department of Agriculture all through the early months of President Roosevelt’s administration. Whether one agreed with the New Deal program or was definitely opposed to it, the disposition was to avoid at tacks on'the Department of Agricul ture because of the sad plight of the industry it was supposed to help. But differences have! arisen among the farm leaders.and among the members of congress from agricultural districts as to the way things have been run at the Department of Agriculture, and these differences are not concealed any longer. Consequently, it appears just -possible that Secretary Wallace and the professors on whom he has leaned so heavily may soon find a swirling storm around their heads, which, once started, surely will-go beyond just that phase of the President’s New Deal program. ■ * • » For instance, there is a bill pending that proposes to make the federal gov ernment supervisor Far-Reacking of the security ex- Prnnnxnl changes, the stock P®*« markets. It is far reaching; of that, there can be no doubt. But differences of opinion are sharp, and, generally speaking, they may be traced back to one’s basic be lief as to the extent the federal gov ernment should go in managing your business arid mine. It is held by all observers to be a perfectly normal and natural. Une-'of cleavage.- This legislation would attempt to .control the sales of air shares of stock and bonds whether on the floors'of the trading exchanges or 'across the coun ters of brokers. - The operations would be directed from -Washington through the Federal Trade commission. Its scope arid the fact that administra tion of this phase of business, like so many others, would be centered in Washington causes concern among that schpol of thought which clings to the idea of a policy permitting individ uals to conduct their own business without having to-bow and scrape be fore a bureaucrat,In .Washington. The activities of some of the NRA leaders In dictating, business policies and practices is well known, but those opposed to them are none the less op posed because they made less noise In the last few months. They will join In any movement, that promises to over turn the program ,of. business dictator ship that has : been set up.; The same Is true respecting: the attitude of busi ness men .and women on numerous other, phases of the New DeaL It is an opposition that-. thus far- has not been allowed to blow off- steam.

Truly, I can bear it now.” Rocky avoided ;her eyes. “There’s really not much to tell.” “Anything is better than this uncer tainty.” “Perhaps that's true.” Rocky gently removed her hand from his arm.. He ran his brown fingers through his, hair. "Can’t you trust me. Sweet?” Sweet! For a moment she felt' a lifting of spirits. Rocky’s tone was so tender. But then be used words like, that all the time to all women. She gave a little laugh that she could think of that now. It" was a bitter sardonic little laugh. “You can’t shut me out from my past forever. Besides—” she sat down on the bed. “I’m not a coward.” She was silent Rocky sat dowD beside her, took her hand. “Please wait—” “No, no.” She got up. “I—I can’t wait I have a right to know... I’ll - I’ll ask Mr. St. Gardens what it’s all about. I’ll tell him everything I re member. He will: tell me. He won’t keep me in agony any longer. I'can’t bear this uncertainty.- Anything is better.” She controlled herself, lookert at him gravely. “Did I—Rocky? Did I do— that awful thing?” Rocky looked at the carpet miser ably. “D—n it, how- do I know? I can only guess—like everybody else.” “Then it isn’t a sure thing?” “Oh, they think it’s sure, all right” His lips drooped unhappily. “Per haps you—went out of your mind.” “Then it was—I did—that is—Rocky, I can’t be a murderess. I didn’t kill anyone.” Her eyes, haggard and strained, searched his face for an an swering faith. She found Ih He looked back at her squarely. “That’s the way I feel about it.” “I couldn’t kill-anybody.” “I know you couldn’t ” He patted her head, against his knee. “T’ve al ways known that about you.”- , “Then whj—” she turned suddenly to him. “Why Is there such a mysteri ous silence about me? Why .were we arrested? Why have we been racing like mad away from New York?” She stared at his quiet face, for a terri fied second. “I know! I-’il ask the police. - - I’ll go to the station! I must’ find out” “Wait—don’t you see, Doris? I’m only trying to help you.” She stared into his eyes then.. Her. hand dropped suddenly to her. lap. “I did, then. I did kill someone.” Rocky’s silence was terrible to her. She drew close to him. “I didn’t Rocky. ; I didn’t.; Tell»me. I didn’t Why, I couldn’t have killed anybody, Rocky. . I know that much about my self, don’t ' I?” She looked at him pitifully. He took her hand and held it tightly. ' After a while he , said huskily, “That’s the way I tee], Doris. That you couldn’t have.” ‘ • “Please tell me how It.happened.” Still Rocky, paused. At last, his. cheek close to hers, he said slowly, “It’s—been In all the papers.. It hap pened the day I sailed. So I didn't see much about it until I .got back. Then—of course your picture has been everywhere—” - “My picture." • He nodded. “It’s you, all right. I didn’t see It until that night you fainted when you saw It But—you didn't remember when you came to, again—” . <She brushed her hair back from her damp brow. !!But-Rocky, what did— what am I supposed to have done?" Rocky cleared hjs throat and tried, to speak In a matter-of-fact way.,, “Why, this girl is supposed to have shot her -husband with her father’s gun and then—” .She could not speak. She had shrunk away from ,him, covered her face with her hands.■ “Then ■ she disappeared;” went on. Rocky. He leaned oven and tried to take her hands. '“Most I go on?” •Doris raised her face. “But Rocky, don't vou remember I was with my husband In1 the cab'?' He Was still alive then. Someone else must have shot him afterward. He was awful, Rocky, and I was afraid of him, -hut you remember, don’t you, how I left him? I didn’t shoot him.” X Rocky’s hand pressed nervously over his hot,brow. “I,think you—perhaps you haven’t been well,” he stam mered. “You mean,” the words dropped ,with a bedraggled courage, “you mean I’ve lost my mind.” - “I mean I think you lost it for a short time, when—when this hap pened.” " ’ “How did you know? I mean how have you learned anything about me?" "I—I thought you‘guessed. The pa pers have been full of it.” “What do they say?" Rocky looked away, as if he were, detaching the subject from her. “Why, they say this girl is supposed to have killed her husband on her wedding night,” he said again. ; “Oh!” She clung to his eyes for sympathy. "Oh! And you think I did that?” ' Rocky took her hands pityingly, but she drew away. “Doris, I didn’t—but your photograph—” “Why did you want to take me to Canada?”, “Why did I want to take you? I am taking you. The first thing tomorrow. If I can get you to . Quebec I can get you on a boat and—well, I think you’ll be safe'enough in Paris."- ' 1 * “But Rocky—” He looked at her inquiringly.. She wanted to ask, “But why are you do, ing this for me—” Something, in his eyes made her unwilling. She said instead; “I’ll have to give myself up, yOu know.” He. patted her shoulder gently. ‘TH not let you.” , J She stared up at him earnestly. “Rocky, if I’m caught are you guilty,: too? I don’t mean guilty—but isn’t there some terrible penalty for hiding police. You have been formally In dicted for murder-in the first degree You’d even be denied-, bail. You—Tnr afraid you’d eoliapse completely.” “I won’t go to pieces again.” She leaned her head on her arms confi dently. “Now that I know what I have to fight—well—I’m going to fight it D0 you really think Fd deliberate Iy let you in for a thing like this1—?"

G O LD EN R U L E IN P LA C E O F R E IG N O F SELFISH N ESS ' Recently we heard a learned pub licist discoursing eloquently on the joys of human service.

He was as tickled with his discovery as a boy with a new pair of skates. He was almost as proud as If he had found the secret of perpetual motion. Evidently he didn’t realize that all he had done was to rediscover the Gold en Rule Very Ukely he didn’t know that Jesus had laid down this rule as one of the foundation. principles of Christianity, and that Socrates and many other great- moral leaders In different ages had preached the same thing. This man has probably never lived In the country or in a small town, where people all; know their neigh bors and where they have to be mutu ally helpful. He has probably always lived In cities, where the people are so self-satisfied that they WiU have nothing to do with their next door neighbors. Suddenly the realization - has come to this man that a life of smug isolation and personal seclusion and selfishness is wrong, and that hu man beings should think- more about uieir brothers. To this man this feel- Ing has come as a new revelation, and . he is so ,enthusiastic about his dis covery that-he thinks he has found the universal, key to peace .and hap piness. This Is splendid. The more leaders there are who get up and preach such doctrines the better things are going to he.- The.world needs new enthusiasms like that. It was just such a . sudden revelation as that which ..made the apostle Paul turn from business and go to. preach ing and making converts. It Is- a great gain when we behold our pub lic men urging people to. hold out a helping hand to their fellow beings, without stopping too much to count the cost Even if they imagine they have discovered something new, we do not need to quarrel with them. They should be encouraged and up held In every way.—Pathfinder Maga zine. Great Truth It’s better to be dressed up than dressed down.

You are not apt to, cure your constipation with salts, pills and tablets, or any' habit-forming cathartic. But you can safely relieve this condition just by gentle regulation with a suitable quid laxative. Why Hospitals use a liquid laxative The dose of a liquid Iaxatiye can be measured. The . action can ' thus be regulated to; suit your individual need. I t1 forms no habit; yon need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. JVor will it irritate the kidneys.

The Gastonia Gazette gives good advice in an editorial calling atten tion to the fact that one of the queerest things about automobile traffic is that whenever there is spell of nasty w inter weater, vyhich coats the streets with ice. and makes driving extra hazardous; one is al most certain to fiud the accident rate dropping abruptly. . One good, sized city gave a grap hie illustration of this last month. Its police traffic departm ent is underm anned, and it does not or- dinarly keep its traffic . situation very weli under control. . Since the start of the year, fatal automobile accidents has been occurring at the rate of about.one a day.. Then came a violent cold spell The streets were icy, treacherous;' snow flurries filled the air, cutting down the vision of drivers and pedestrians_ alike, and adding an extra risk to the situation. And immediately^ the city’s ac cident rate dropped to an astound- Iy low point Instead of killing someone every- day, its motorists, killed no one at all —until the storm had passed and traffic conditions became safer. In this startling reversal of logic, there is a neat little moral for motorists all over the country. It is pretty clear proof th at-auto accidents do not come from dangers inherent in the flow off traffic. They come sim ply' because motor ists and pedestrians take-risks that they have ao business to take. W hen the streets are dry, and, feet control, and drivers aqd pedes- trains alike-can - see w ithout! diffi culty'"in every direcfion^then is the dangerousTime. M otorists drive too fast, they cut in and out of traffic lines, they try to beat the other feil'.w across in tersections. Pedestrians trust to'their nimble ness of foot to dart th ro u g h . lines of heavy traffic. T he result, of course, is that many people get killed and a far greater num ber gets maimed, - . - But when the bad weather comes so that it’s hard to stop a car sud-' denly, and the footing is uncertain well, then we get wise • to our selves 'and stop taking chances, and, as au/esult, accidents dimisb. If we could take the -trouble to be as careful when conditions are favorable as we are When they .are unfavorable, our auto traffic toll would cease to be a national scan dal.—E x. ' ' . NOTICE!

But the name, value is-largely in .the imagination; and development -of recent time has indicated that the name isn’t al ways the ball mark of success or safety, not to mention common honesty.. But there has been much of a come down in banker wages in recent time. Twenty-five thou sand is accounted big pay.J o r a banker now and only one in North Carolina draws down that much. It- was no friend o f the high salary corporation heads who in stigated the Senate1S directing the: trade commission to bring into the open the amount paid these people. .There are still enough o f , them in the big money-to attract notice and a num ber of tbe-senaiors are pro posing to d o : something about it. The most, popular plan is to levy an income tax of probably 80 per cent on all salaries and Jbonusfes in ex cess of $75,0 0 0 In -addition they would revise the revenue law to ex elude all sajaries and bonuses in excessof the amount nariied from cost of operations. The minimum, sefems reasonable. No so many peo ple are worth $75,0 0 0 to a business, counting their actual worth..

Tbe death came7 and so did the promised obituary. It told the greedy grasping character of the mail, his underhanded, shady deeds and his selfishness. The only par ticular incident we recall now was that Cbnway said the banker was so .penurious.-that he. allowed his daughter to die from tuberculosis rather than spend the money to send her to dry'clim ate of Arizona as the doctors advised. It told plenty. Perhaps it was the only obituary ever written that recalled frankly the defects of a local citi zen’s character.

The News and Obser ver reports the result of his trip as; follows: - . ’’Dr. Allen explained ;that the gov ernment was going to aid Alabama,, where many schools have closed even though teachers drew an average salary of $84 .per month' for the period the schools operated. North Carolina teachers are . getting', an average of $68.” That is an astounding condition We still .hope-that some way may be found for- our teachers to share- in the federal aid if any is given other states. But Why blame our Sena tors arid-Representatives if they are unable to help? For months now the press has been fill with adminis tration propaganda trying to sbow what a woriderful school system we have. The boast is tHat we are keep- ing our schools open, and nothing is said of tbe sacrifices teachers are making that this. may be done. In the face of that it is natural for others, to believe that We ought not to share in federal aid.

A great fight has been going on over the world for a long time, and with growing Intensity dnring the past decade. Friehds “of decency should realize that the prole tarians have achieved the victory and wipe out the disgraceful defeat they have suffered. The North, the East, the West has suffered another Bull ta.

This is a portion of a larger piece pre sented to the National museum In Washington by tlie-son of Prof. Thad- deus ,S. G. Lowe, the latter having figured very prominently in the aerial activities of the Union army. j This piece of cloth is valuable not only as a reminder of the use of air craft in the Civil war, but of "the ingenuity displayed by a poverty- stricken army in providing equip ment. General Longstreet, in “Our March Against Pope,” relates an in teresting bit of history In this con nection .as experienced by the oppos ing forces.. “It may be of interest,” he wrote, “to relate an incident which illus trates the pinched condition of the Confederacy, even as early -as 1862. The Federals. had been using.-bal loons to examine our positions, and we watched with envious eyes their beautiful observations as they float ed high in the air. well out of the range of our guns.' While we were longing for the balloons our poverty denied us, a genius suggested that we gather together all tbe silk dresses In the Confederacy and make. a, balloon. It was done, and soon we had a grotesquely patterned ship of many and varied hues which was ready for use in the seven days’ cam paign. We had no gas except at Richmond, and it was the custom to Inflate the balloon there, tie it se curely to an engine and run It down the York River railroad to any point at which we desired to set it up. “One day It was on a steamer down the James river when the tide went out and left the vessel and bal loon high and dry on a bar. The Federals gathered It in and with it the last silk dress in the Confed eracy. This capture was the mean est trick of the war and one which I have never- forgiven.” Patriotism, sacrifice, ardor and ro mance, quite aside from Its aerial activities, hang about that varnished and faded silk.—Washington Post. It Depends “Does your wife make a fuss over dinner being late?” “That all depends on whether it is due to my meeting a friend or her be ing out for the afternoon." The very best thing to complete the rout of the depression would be a nationwide building program, add ing 50,000,000 to 75,000,000 rooms to American homes by use of private capital. So said President Henry L Harnman of the United States Cham ber of Commerce at Buffalo a few days ago. Such a program, he in sisted, would do for business what the automobile did a few years ago. And this would be no sudden spurt, for, in Mr. Harriman’s opinion, it would take ten years to build merely the houses necessary for a minimum standard of decency and.comfort He estimates the total cost of construc tion alone at close to'$4ft,0d0,000,000- And to that may be added more, bil lions for furnishings.- A survey conducted by the Na tional Association of Real Estate Boards In 273 cities reveals a short age of single family houses In 27 per cent of the cities, and a shortage of apartment space In the smaller cities. The home shortage is more pro nounced in the smaller cities and Is especially noticeable In New Eng land, the Pacific coast, and the West South Central section. What this country needs, declared the Southern Lumberman, is not model apartments but small individ ual homes. And by small homes it does not mean .houses costing, around $9,000—for which there is, indeed, a market—but houses costing In the neighborhood of $3,000 or $4,000. For these there is a much greater de mand, and "the architects and build ers and promoters seem to have for gotten that there ever was that kind of a house.” The Southern Lumberman thinks that if means could be found to finance such building it would open a very large untapped field of activ ity.—Literary Digest W h o s e Fault?

Sluggishness ruins any disposition, ana that’s what is usually wrong. But it’s just as wrong to dose that child with sickening cathartics. Until 15—or older—a child’s bowels need but little aid—a very mild form of help. Stronger things often upset the stomach or weaken the bowel muscles.

WNU Service CHAPTER IX—Continued — —16— Doris took her hand shakily. “You’re awfully sweet," she said. Beatrice sat down. “Then let’s talk quickly, because I can see you’re tired to death. Rocky has told me every thing. Tou know Rocky is just like my brother. We. spent all of our vaca tions together as children, so I hope you won’t mind his having told me. I don’t think anyone else should know—” “Your father—” began Doris. “No. I don’t think so. I’m sure he’d approve, but If anything comes up, it’s better if he doesn’t know. I have a small sitting room with a porch of my own downstairs. You shall spend your time there. I, have everything planned. You need see no one except Mary, a maid who’s been with us a long time, and Is practically blind besides. And Eocky shall go and see your people.” “But your wedding—” said Doris. “Yes; I’m afraid I shall be rather busy. I won’t be able to see as much of you as I’d like. But it’s not nntll Saturday. Thafs^four days, and that’s oceans of time for Rocky to get to New Jersey and back. He’ll take the train. The bishop is arriving Satur day morning—so he’ll be' in time for the wedding rehearsal which is to be at eleven on the day of the wedding. And Friday night my bridesmaid is coming from Mount Kisco, and several friends of father’s are coming—the Du YalS, of course, will be here.” “Oh I don’t think we ought Io Stayj" said Doris. “But we’ll get away long before the wedding.” “Oh no I You must stay for the wed ding?’ Js Rocky shook his head gravely. “I will have to get Doris away before then. She’ll be recognized.” “That’s true, isn’t it? But surely you’ll have everything cleared up by then.” Doris said: “If I do stay, couldn’t I write letter for you—or do some thing useful?” - ..... "That’s aa idea. I’ll have about a million letters to write. You are an angeL” She rose. “Now you 'must sleep. This is Wednesday night Rocky will'get a train In the morning and be with your family—if it is youp family, which.I doubt—by tomorrow night. He ought to be able to get back here by Friday, and you can leave then, if you feel you must” She took_Rocky firmly by the arm. “We must go now. And let the poor child sleep.” "I don’t know why you’re all so con-' siderate of me,” said Doris, who was trembling on the verge of tears. “It’s Sack? who needs rest, really. 'I’ve dozed in the car a lot, arid he’s been at the wheel since three o’clock this morning.” “Yesterday morning,” said Rocky. He stood for a minute looking down at Doris when Beatrice had left the room. “Good night. I probably won’t see you again until I.get back.” His curt tone startled Doris. He was biting his lips nervously. His jaw twisted unpleasantly. .“What’s the matter?” said Doris In astonishment Rocky held- out his hand. “Good night,’’ he said in' a businesslike tone. Doris bent her head. “Good-night” As the door closed behind him tears sprang to her eyes. He had been so— not exactly unfriewdly—but so matter of fact She hardly knew what she had expected him to do. But certain ly she had not looked for this abrupt Impersonal good-by. / She crept between Hie sheets for lornly. ■. The sun was streaming in her room when she woke. Beatrice was stand ing beside her with a loaded tray. ‘It’s ten o’clock,” smiled Beatrice, “and I thought you might be hungry.” Doris sat up, opening and closing her eyes. They still smarted from the strain of her long drive. “Oh. You’re nice to bring up this—but aren’t you terribly busy?” ' " ; .“Busy calming the maids. You a think each individual one was being married herself!” “Has Rocky gone?” . “Yes, quite early—I have to run now. But I brought you this.” She gave Doris the morning paper. Doris read it as she drank her coffee. At- first she didn’t notice the story though it was on the front page. Then the name “Diane Merrell” caught her eyes. She set down her cup with a gasp.It was a double column heading on the front page of a New York m.orning paper. Some young reporter had done his best to make a humorous, incident out of the stopping of Mrs. Rockwell Du Val on the road to Rockwell St Garden’s house. The story -was sym pathetic to DoHs and Rocky.: Lack ing a picture of yoong Mrs. Rocky Du Val, they, had printed one of Oscar Du Val wlth Hie caption. ; ' ■. “Son's wife taken Un false arrest Doris read it through twice. It would have been a good story—a'good. Joke on the police—if only she had been Mrs. Rocky Du VaL She finished her breakfast slowly. At the end of the story was a paragraph which said that Mrs. Du Yal was the fourth wrong Diane Mer rell to have been discovered. “Why couldn't one of those girls have been Diane Merrell instead of me?” she thought as she got out of bed. She would ask Beatrice fo get her some old newspapers.. She would like to rea<f about Diane Merrell. She was bathed and dressed when Beatrice came back. "I’m. afraid I’ve been a long time, but there’s such a lot to do.” There was a busy little, frown on her broad brow— “I wonder, Beatrice, if you could dig up some old newspapers' for me to read—” “Of course.” They went downstairs together to Beatrice’s pretty little room, done in flowered chintz. “This has been my own special place since I was sixteen,” said Beatrice. “I’m sure there are some newspapers In the basement. I’ll send them up.” > A few minutes, later, an elderly maid came in and put down a huge pile of old newspapers on the table. Doris rose unsteadily. She felt a little faint as she put out her hands to touch them. Here lay her own story—or did it? Would she have the courage to read It? The first paper was recent, and yielded nothing. As she continued her search with a beating heart, she came upon great glaring headlines: “Shoots. Groom After Wedding. So ciety Girl Kills New Husband and Dis appears. Note Found.” She read feverishly. She had been married at an afternoon wedding on May 19 to a man named Howard Val ery. Immediately after the wedding reception, which had been at her fa ther’s home, she had gone out by a side door where her own motor was parked, loaded with her. luggage. The groom had been with her. As they were about to step into the car she had shot him, and driven away. As she read, a stronger and stronger feeling of antipathy for this girl Dianer Merrell developed. Was it possible that she had ever been a girl capable of all this? She was a heartless, cold blooded criminal. For the note proved that the crime had been premeditated. She studied the note again. It had been found in the pocket of the poor boy whose body was discovered sprawled against a flowering lilac bush. It read: HOWARD: This m arriage can’t go on—it cannot. Ton m ust be crazy. I don’t w ant to kill you. - Do som ething about it for heaven's sa k e .'D. Couid ariy girl have written such a note and forgotten it? Surely, surely if she were Diane Merrell, shfe would remember something now. But not a faint glimmer of recollection enlight ened her. Could It be that she had two sides to her nature, and that that other, darker side was hidden from her now, sleeping quietly? Some day it might wake again, and she would find her self a killer. She would be capable of shooting somebody she loved” capable of shooting Rocky. / She was sick and frightened. She lay at full length on the gently sway ing. couch. Then she propped her head on her hands and took up another paper. Diane Merrell had driven herself to New York. Her car had been found parked on Forty-sixth street the day after the murder. She saw a large picture of herself. * Yes, it looked very like her. There was no doubt about that She went back to her reading. There was a description of the wedding. It brought back nothing at all. Doris tried not to think any more about Dlane Merrell. Surely Rocky would discover something that would help her. He must be nearing Mor ristown by now. She went to bed early. The next afternoon would bring Rocky back. That would have to settle her fate. Now she felt numb and exhausted. In spite of everything she slept CH A PTER X Rocky did not come the next, after noon. Instead came a telegram say ing that he was catching a train that night and would arrive Saturday morn ing.That would be the day of the wed- ding. -Doris had developed a streak of hopefulness. Rocky would have un raveled some clue, and would bring back the miraculous news that , she was not Diane Merrell. Or he would have discovered that Howard Valery had not been killed, or that he had committed suicide. 'No, that would not do. The experts said that that was impossible. She remembered read ing that Besides, Dlane had left n note. But how stupid she. had been to put down on paper such an Inten tion and then to carry It out, leaving ;' 'i note for the police to find. Of course she hadn’t meant It for the police.Friday passed In a stew of specula tion. She woke at dawn next morning with a heavy heart . After breakfast she waited on the little porch beside the sitting room for Rocky. Her feeling of uncertainty deepened. After all, If she was Dlane Merrell what could Rocky do for. her? Whatever happened, a long-'life of loneliness' stretched before her; that, or deatli. ■“Mrs. Du VjaMees.rio one.”. It was . Mary’s yolce. ; .. The butler answered, “I have told her that.” “The doctor’s orders are that Mrs. Du Val cannot see anyone.” “I told her. But she won’t listen.” Doris started to her feet Who coijld be wanting to see her? Was it Rocky? No, It was a woman. As she hesitated, she heard Beatrice come in to the sit ting room. A new voice said loudly: “But Tm going to see her.” Where had she heard that voice be fore—a strong husky girl’s voice? “Believe me,” the voice went on, “you’d better not try to stop me If you know what’s good for you.” Doris peeked in. The girl was some one she had seen before—a brown eyed girl in a tailored suit of green linen. Doris had seen her before—but where? “Plenty of good reasons—” “Whom did you wish to see?” Beatrice was speaking In a crisp im personal tone. “I want to see th« jrirl calling her self Mrs. Rockwell Du Val.” ’ The girl eyed Beatrice, unimpressed,by the lack of cordiality In her manner. “Plenty of good reasons why she don’t want to see me I know—” “Then why do you try—?” “Plenty more why she’d better.” Doris recognized her. She was the girl she had seen at the clam stand— the friend of the real Doris. Rocky had called her Molly. The big brown eyes looked full of de termination. She was looking Beatrice full in the face belligerently. “There’s no use trying to high-hat me. Are you Mrs. Du Val?” “No,” said Beatrice quietly. “I thought you weren’t. I have an idea who she is. And I intend to go through every room in this liouse to find her if I have to.” The quiet youthful voice of Beatrice was in marked contrast to Molly’s in sistent tores. “Won’t you sit down and tell me what it is you want to see Mrs. Du Val about?" “That’s my business,” said Molly sullenly. “Supposing you tell It to me.” “Like h—I I will.” "Then I’m afraid you can’t see her.” Molly’s tone held a jeer. “Oh yeah? Well, supposing I tell you I’m a friend of the real Mrs. Du Val.” Beatrice said nothing. “That gets you, doesn’t it? Now perhaps you’ll understand why I want to take a squint at the girl who 19 palming herself off as Doris Du VaV “I’m afraid I don’t,” said Beatrice quietly. “How did you find out about this?” “Doris saw it in the papers. Mrs. Du Val arrested. And that made her wonder, as the saying goes. She sen? me a wire.”- “You are here then as Mrs. Du Val’s agent? Am I to understand that?” Molly sat down and crossed her legs. “Yeah. That's about it” “Where is Mrs. Du Val?” •-‘That’s my business,, tod.” “Rocky said that Doris had left him. Dri you know where she Is?” “Supposing I do?” ,“Does Doris want to get Rocky to come back to her?” Molly disdainfully inserted hei tongue between opened lips and blew vigorously. “H—I, no,” she remarked when she had finished- the exercise. ‘Tm sorry. I don’t quite under stand.” Molly, searching In the untidy depths of her very large hand-bag, brought out a paper package of cig arettes. "Gee, Tve smoked my last one.” She crumpled the bright green wrapper In her fist “Have you got one?’ Beatrice rose and handed her a sil ver box filled with the small white cylinders. ' Molly seemed cheered as Shef lit her cigarette, and much more favorably impressed with Beatrice. “Tell you how it is—this is Just between you and I, of course—but Doris wants me to dicker with the girl financially—see?" Astonishment showed in Beatrice’s breathless “Dicker? 'Financially? Do ,you mean that IJrs. Du Val wants to get- a divorce from Rocky?” “That’s it., I knew you’d get it. I knew you’d get it” “But—I should think that would be a private matter for hei- to discuss with Rocky.” _ Molly blew a smoke ring very care fully. This done, she looked at Bea trice pityingly. “You look like a girl who would think a thing like that” “I am awfully sorry. I’m afraid you’ll think I’m a bit stupid. But what financial transactions are you talking about?” “In a couple of words, baby : ali mony.” “Alimony!” Doris could not stand any more. She stepped out from behind the cur tains. “I’d like to say a word or two.” Beatrice rose. Her face was horri fied. Molly’s -big brown eyes half closed In a veiled, critical stare: ' “I thought you’d turn out to be the girl. I wrote Doris about meeting you down among the clams. And was she pleased? She’s been trying to get something like that on Rocky for months! The Dn-Vals have got plenty,- ahd !she’ll take a big cash settlement and that will be the end. You know—; she’s- willing to, be big—” Doris was seething. She t clenched her hands together and spoke with dLSiculty. “I have nothing to 'do with all this;” “OS • now; what’s the use of taking that attitude? Some girls wouldn’t be generous like Doris,. With what she’s got on you now—she could get ali mony for the rest of her I life—see?

Jesus Christ the King; Taking Account of His Ministry (vv. 13-17). L The place (v. 13). It was at Cesarea Philippi, the northern Umit of Jewish territory. It was signifi cant that the announcement concern ing the Church should take place In this region. 2. The time in Christ’s ministry. It marked a turning point ,,His minis try was largely restricted to his (Iiai ciples after this. The cross was a short time ahead. The Messiah had already been rejected. They had al ready charged him with being (n league with the devil and sought to kill him. it was highly important that the disciples should have clear views as to Christ’s person In order to'stand the test of the trial and crucifixion of Jesus. 3. Peter’s confession of Jesus (w. 13-16). а. The occasion (vv. 13-15). Two questions asked by Jesus provoked this confession. (1) As to the opinion of the people concerning him <vv. 13. 14). They recognized him as a teacher and prophet of more than human author ity. Today, as then, there is a di versity of opinion concerning Jesus. Some think that he is only a man; others that he Is a great teacher but : nothing more. It was his persistent claim to be the Godinan, the very Son 1 of God. that sent him to the cross. { (2) As to. the personal opinion of the disciples (v. 15). It was not j enough for them to be able to tell i what opinion the people held concern ing Jesus. It was necessary that they have clear personal knowledge. б . The content <v. 16). It consisted of two parts. .(I) “Thon art the Christ" This means that Jesus of Nazareth was the Messiah., the fulfiller of the Jewish hopes and expectations, (2) "The Son of the living God.” This acknowledged him to be divine. It was the recognition of bis glorious person In keeping with the Jewish hope (Isa. 9:6, 7). 4. Christ’s confession of Peter (w. 17-19). Peter had made a noble con fession. Now Jesus confesses him. Those who confess Christ shall be con fessed by him (Matt 10:32, 33). 5. Christ’s charge to the disciples (v. 20). He asked them not to tell any man that he was the Messiatb- The time was not^rlpe for such testi mony. II. The New Body, the Church, An- nounced (vv. 18, 19). Following the confession of Peter, Jesus declared his Intention of bring ing into existence a new body. To the members of this body he promised to give the keys of the kingdom. Pe ter was to have, a distinguished place In this body. The keys entrusted to him were used at Pentecost and again In the case of Cornelius. Christ has the keys of Hades and death. III. The King Predictis His Death (vv. 21-23). This prediction was no doubt start ling to the disciples. They did not yet realize that redemption was to ■ be accomplished through the passion of the cross. -So unwelcome was thi3 an nouncement that Peter cried, “This shall not be unto Thee.” Later Peter saw through the darkness the sunlight on the hill tops beyond the cross. Re demptive victory through- Christ’s death Is yet the stumbling block to many. • IV. The Cost o r Discipleship (vv. 24-26). . j -To follow Christ means suffering. To follow him is to, turn one’s back upon the world. L There must be denial of self. There is a wide- difference' between self-denial and denial of self. 2. “Take up his cross”, (v. 24).- This cross Is the shame and suffering which lie In the path of loyalty to Christ ; To do our whole duty wiB bring suffer ing (II Tim. 3:12). 3: Follow Christ (V; 24). This means to have the mind of Christ to be like Christ. All such shall be re warded when Christ comes In glory. Religion Gives' ConfiJenco Religion gives the religious soul the confidence born of close touch with the center of all things. “I can do all things.” says the Christian, “through Christ who strengthens me.” Is not this worth while? The Need Today The need today is for men and wom en of active personality, men and wom en: who cannot only do-things them selves, but also can get things done by others. . ; • _Y ONE DISADVANTAGE . “Your uncle la very ill—yon m ust be prepared for everything.” “Not everything, doctor, there are other heirs.” * A SIMPLE QUICK WAY TO REUEVE ACID STOMACH HERE ARE THE SIGNS: Nervoiisnesa Frequent Headaches I Neivalgla FeeUog of Weakness IIndigestion Sleeplessness j Loss of Appetite Month Addity jNausea Sour Stomach JAnto*lntozication I WHAT TO DO FOR IT: TAKE—2 teaspoonfuls of Phillips* Milk o£ Magnesia in a glass or waterevery morning when you get up.

PICKARD rouiuis Br DmECTIOX of the President, all air mail operations by the army air corps were suspended by Maj. Gen. Benjamin D. Foulois. chief of the corps, and the draft ing of a new sched ule tluit would insure greater safety for the flyers was begun. When the news reached him of the deaths of the ninth and tenth army mail carriers within three weeks Mr. Roosevelt sent out word: "The continuation of deaths in the army air corps must stop.” He or dered that’ the carrying of air mail cease except “on such routes, under such weather conditions and under such equipment and personnel conditions as will insure, as far as the utmost care can provide, against constant recur rence of fatal accidents.” General Foulois, Brig. Gen. Oscar Westover, chief of air mail operations, and various Post OfBce department officials built a revised “safety" route with the trans-continental line from Kewark to San Francisco as the main line, other routes feeding into it. The intention was to reduce the number of trips on all schedules and to permit less night flying. Colonel Lindbergh aroused Interest by visiting Washington for two days and conferring with Secretary of War Dern. Soon after the secretary named the colonel, Orville Wright and Clar ence Chamberlain on a committee to investigate the army carrying of the air mail. General Foulois has been working on a plan by which army flyers could Join with commercial pilots in receiv ing training. The step follows a sug gestion by Mr. Roosevelt that “because military lessons have been taught us during the last few weeks,” army avi ators should train with those who "later on will fly the mail” in “night flying, blind flying and instrument flying." Meanwhile committees of both house and senate were working out legislation, along the Unes. of the. President’s .request that the Jying_of the mails be returned to private com panies under a new contract system. The President's prompt action in the air mail matter, virtually admitting an error had been made, took some of the wind out of the sails of his opponents but .did not entirely stop the attacks. Hiram Bingham, president of the Na tional Aeronautic association and for merly Republican senator from Con necticut, demanded In a public state ment that Mr. Roosevelt tell who had misled him as to the fitness of the army air corps and its planes to carry the mails. Both Genera] Foulois and General MacArthur, chief of staff, were quoted in interviews as saying the army was equal to the task, but Bingham said that, so far as he could learn, the President had not consulted either of them before ordering the air corps,to undertake the assignment. CRIMINAL action for alleged eva sion of the federal Income tax law was ordered by Attorney General Cummings^to be brought Immediately against Andrew W. Mellon, former secre tary of the treasury and one of the world’s wealthiest men; T. L. SldIow of Cleveland, law partner of New ton D. Baker; Thomas S. LamonL son of the noted (inancier Thom as W. Lamont and a member of the J. P. Morgan banking house, and James J. Walker, former mayor of New York. Mr. Cummings announced that the, Department of Justice had conducted a secret investigation of the tax af fairs. of these fotir men and bad turned the Information gathered over to United States attorneys In New York, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.’ Grand jury action in each of those cities was expected to result Casesagainst more than a score of other men were being prepared by the department's tax divi sion. Mr. Mellon was quick to place bis case before the people. In a long statement he denied ever having failed to pay his proper income taxes and said that In the last twenty years he had paid more than $20,000,000 In this form of rates. He characterized the attor ney general’s action as "politics of the crudest' sort.” He' continued: “I feel very strongly that before the attorney general of the United States should bring a charge of this kind against me I, like any other citizen, should be given proper notice in the manner provided by law of the gov ernment’s Intention to assess addition al taxes and should have'been afford ed an opportunity to meet such charges In the customary way. . “In all my years of experience In the administration of the tax laws I have never known of a single Instance In which such unfair and arbitrary action has been taken.” Several times since last May, when Andrew W Congressman McFadden made charges ■ against Mr. MeUon based on informa tion given bjt one Olson, regarding what was called a specific tax eva.- sion. Mr. Mellon said, he has request ed Mr. Cummings to make a full in vestigation and received nothing bet ter than an evasive response In con clusion Mr. Mellon said: “I am glad the issue is joined at last and am quite content to leave the outcome to the courts and to the good sense and fairness of the American people when all the facts are known.” T WO hundred and thirty-one Demo cratic members of the house kicked over the traces and, with the aid of 59 Republicans, passed the Patman bill calling for the immediate payment of the veterans’ bonus with greenbacks. The President has repeatedly ex pressed his opposition to the measure and indicated that he would veto it If it got through congress. Its passage by the senate was considered most doubtful. Therd were only two reasonable ex planations for the revolt of the Dem ocrats. One was put in words by Rep resentative John Y. Brown of Ken tucky, a Democrat, who was in oppo sition. He said: “You are buying veterans’ votes. You are holding out this piece of bait to get veterans’ votes this summer. There is not a man in Ihe house who believes this bill will ever become a law, and yet you sit here and vote for it for your own po litical welfare.” The other explanation was that many of the Democrats are resentful of the "rubber stamp” label that has been put on congress and welcomed an opportunity to break away from dictation' and, as one of them said, vote as their consciences directed. Fred Britten of Chicago, Republican, charged that the Democrats supported the measure with the secret under standing that they would not vote to over-ride the President’s veto. SENATOR SIMEON D. FESS of Ohio is one of the most voluble of the administration’s critics, and he found opportunity for another ener getic attack when the senate was consider ing -Sehatof_Idm_ Con: Daily’s bill to Include cattle among the ba sic commodities sui> ject to ' farm adjust- m e n t control. The provision for an ap propriation of $200,- 000,000 was the spe cial point of assault » » r? by Fess, McNary ofSenator Fesa 0regon> Dickinson of Iowa, and Oarey of Wyoming and Van- denberg of Michigan, all of whom agreed that the Agricultural adjust ment program has been a complete failure. The Democrats, with the ex ception of Connaliy, made no reply to the verbal barrage. The Ohio senator said that hog prices had fallen instead of risen, that the prices of farm commodities not under tiie AAA had In many cases risen faster and higher' than the so- called basic commodities. “That sort of thing is nauseating to any decent person who wants business to be done in a business way,” he said, alluding to the hog buying program. “It’s time to stop this'foolish experi mentation, time to take the heavy band of government oif business and let business recover.” Senator Vandenberg and Senator McNary could not understand why $200,000,000 were required for cattle when only $100,000,000 were asked in the original bill covering six com modities. JOSEPH B. EASTMAN and the Inter state Commerce commission have joined in recommending, to congress legislation that will place under “the guiding hand of government, control” the transportation agencies that use the highways and waterways of the country. Their report, which was sub mitted to the President, declares that regulation of motor and water trans-; portatlon Is necessary “If a threaten ing chaos is to be transformed into order.” Such regulation, they said, should be concentrated In the Inter state Commerce commission. •In proposing changes in the Inter state commerce act, the co-ordlDator and the commission recommend liber alization of the. long and short haul clause forbidding a railroad to charge, less for a longer than a shorter haul,' except on permission from the com mission. This clause is held by middle west ern -Interests to have: damaged, them substantially by preventing tralilc mov ing by rail to the Pacific const, and Its repeal is now being sought. /ANE of Japan’s new torpedo boats, ■ the Tomoziirii. of 527 tons, was wrecked mysteriously-off the Sasebo naval, base and it was believed most of her crew of 113 men were lost: The vessel was completed only February 26 last and was a new type, carrying the heaviest armament ever given “a ship of its size. It was considered a . triumph of Japanese naval architec ture. several others of the same type are under construction. H ARRY FIERPONT, one of John DiUinger1S gang, was conyieted at Lima, Ohio, 'of the murder of Sheriff Jess Sarber in a jail raid in which DiI- linger was set free by his comrades, aqd was sentenced to death In the electric chair. The commander of the Ohio National Guard took every pre caution to prevent the rescue of Pier- pont by his resourceful chief, for Dil- linger was still at large, presumably in or near Chicago. At 'Crown Point, Ind, a special grand jury began investigating the easy escape of Dlllinger, a special prosecutor having been named to con duct the inquiry. At present only two men. Deputy Sheriff Ernest Blunk and Turnkey Sam Gaboon, have been ac cused of aiding Dillinger in bis jail break. CHICAGO’S most sensational mur der trial in recent years resulted in the conviction of the elderly Dr. Alice Wynekoop who was charged with killing her daughter-in-law, Rheta presumably to get the insurance on her Ufa The jury fixed her penalty at 25 years in the penitentiary, which amounts to a life sentenca The first hearing of the case resulted in a mis trial because the defendant was to ill for its continuance. Doctor Wynekoop, a member of a family of physicians, had practiced medicine in Chicago for many years and her crime astounded her numer ous friends. PRICE FIXING BY STATE IS'UPHELD T HE CONSTITUTIONALITY of the Fletcher-Rayburn stock regulation bill, which the President expects con gress' to pass at this session, is chal lenged by the New York stock ex change. This action is taken as notice that if the measure is enacted its validity will be tested in the courts. The position of the exchange is that Ihe mere declaration by congress that “transactions in securities as com monly conducted upon securities ex changes are effected with a national public interest” does not make this so as a matter of law. Such transac tions as "commonly conducted” are not transactions in interstate com merce, according to the lawyers for the exchange, and congress, they de clare, “cannot by legislative fiat as cribe to them legal characteristics which they do not otherwise possess." SECRETARY OF COMMERCE RO PER obtained the approval of Pres ident Roosevelt for a new program for subsidizing the American merchant, marine which he will submit td con gress. This time it will be openly called a ship subsidy. D ESPITE the protests of the “little navy” group, the senate by a vote of 65 to 18 approved the administra tion’s naval replacement bill authoriz ing the construction of a 15,200-ton air craft carrier, approximately 65' ''de- stroyers totaling 99.200 tons, some 29 submarines totaling 35,530 tons and the airplanes (from 650 to 1,250) re quired to complete' the fleet’s air equip ment. BY A vote of 15 to 8 a District of Columbia grand jury refused to re turn indictments In its investigation of an alleged conspiracy to defraud the government on War department contracts. Secretary Dern was highly pleased with what he called a vindi cation of the department. A S WAS predicted recently, the * * President appointed Judge Flor ence Allen of Ohio to the federal Circuit Court of Appeals bench. She is the first woman to be made a fed eral judge. Since she was admitted to the bar twenty years ago her legal career In Ohio has been notable. In 1922 she was elected to the Supreme court of that state. The President also appointed Mrs. Bernice Pyke of Cleveland as collec tor of customs there, and Frank P. Corrigan, likewise of Cleveland, to be minister to El Salvador. N e w D e a l S c o re s A g a in in S u p re m e C o u rt. Washington. — The United States Supreme court, for the second time since the New Deal came into being, decided 5 to 4 in favor of a major principle of the Roosevelt program. A five .dollar fine imposed upon, as insignificant Rochester, N. Y., store keeper became, through the. majority opinion of the court, a vital" factor In the future "determination of the con stitutionality of such national policies as those of the agricultural adjust ment administration and the NRA The decision upheld the right of the New York state milk control board to license milk dealers and fix the prices they must charge their customers. As In the recent a to 4 decision in the Minnesota mortgage moratorium case,'the court declared that the in terest of the public was paramount to any private right. And as in that earlier case and others where the division has been over the so-called issue of “conservative” versus “liberal,” the split in the court was the now well known one, setting Chief Justice Hughes and Associate Justices Brandeis, Roberts, StODe, and Cardozo on the liberal side, and Asso- sociate Justices Van Devanter, Suther land, McReynolds and Butler on the side of conservatism. Justice Roberts delivered the ma jority opinion, so important to the Roosevelt economy of centralized plan ning and control, which held that gov ernment might regulate any business, might prescribe rules for the conduct of any portion of that business includ ing the setting of prices, so IoDg as due process is observed, and the means taken are relevant and not discrim inatory. Justice McReynolds handed down the dissenting opinion with its warning that to abrogate the bill of rights un der plea of every emergency is to de stroy the Constitution at the very time it is most needed. D r. S a ra h D e a n C o n v ie te d o f K illin g D r. K e n n e d y Greenwood, MiSs. — Convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprison ment. Dr. Sarah Ruth Dean won her fight to remain free on her $10,000 in dictment bond pending court action on a motion for a new trial. The court granted 90 days for prep aration of arguments on the motion and tentatively set a further hearing for June 2 at Indianola, ;Miss. Doc tor Dean’s attorneys told the court she was ill, suffering from a. chronic stom ach ailment. J ' ' The verdict, representing a rejection of the woman physician’s sworn testi mony that she did not poison her ad mirer, Dr. John Preston Kennedy, with a whisky highball, came after 13 hours and 52 minutes of deliberation. The trial lasted five weeks.

The War department estimates that an additional 250.000 youths and vet erans will have an opportunity to go to the forest camps between now and October 15 as replacements for men who drop out of the corps. VdRS. FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT, Tvl accompanied by Assistant Secre tary of the Treasury TugweIl and 'others, took an aerial trlp'to the Carib bean islands, the special purpose of which was to visit Puerto Rlco and the Virgin islands. From Miami they flew via Cuba to Port An Prince, Haiti, and San Pedro In the Dominican republic, and thence to San Juan and SL Thomas. The last . named town gave the First Lady a gay welcome. She mslde a brief study of social and economic conditions there and took ’part In the dedication of a hospital building ,named “The Anna Eleanor building” In her honor.

IH ftH seeUona et Great Britain, ' Washington.—Topics of general dis- cnssioB in Washington obviously range the whole category M ore C ritics; of subjects that go M ore Noise t0 make np the “New Deal,” but I have been impressed lately with the predominant place now held by two questions In the conversations one hears about the streets, offices, clubs and other places where men meet Largely to the exclusion of other mat ters, one hears people trying to figure out whether, a turn has -come in the Roosevelt political iuck, as one topic, and growing comment on the prevalent confusion within the administration, as the other subject of commenL True, they constitute questions to which the final answer is not yet apparent, but the thought I am trying to advance is that possibly the New Deal is un dergoing some sort of a transition aft er one year. Attention should be called again to the all-embracing control which Pres ident Roosevelt hitherto has exercised almost without effort. Anything he said, anything he did. or anything he proposed, was accepted. There were few critics, and those who. did criti cize cannot be described as Wgfiiy vo cal. Now, however, it is a fact that there are more critics and they are making noise that is not hushed. There are open opponents of the ad ministration policies, not only In the Republican ranks where it Is natural they would be found, but among the Democrats as welL ' As nearly as I can ascertain, the wave of criticism that has come forth into bloom is traceable to one.of Mr. Roosevelt’s acts, directly. The con fusion that has followed seems, at the same time, to have been given birth as a result of the unexpected criticism. Or to state the proposition in another manner, the administration efforts to fend off the criticism are viewed by some observers as having formed the basis of the confusion. I can report only that which I can ascertain to be fact and, on appearance alone, it seeins Mr. Roosevelt acted hastily on the air mail contract cancellation and his action unloosed an issue over which' individuals can take sides. It is really the first time he has provided the opposition with a peg on which they can hang their hats. While the'official spokesmen of the administration say there is no connec tion between the back-fire resulting ‘from the contract cancellation and the several moves made by the President since' in his far flung efforts to. get us out of the depression, I am told that these declarations are having no effect on'those who want to criticize the New Deal schemes. The NRA revision pro gram, the substitution of a new billion- dollar program of a relief character for the CWA which Administrator Hopkins now concedes has been some thing of a fiop, and the battles for leg islation in congress, all are accepted as showing the desire of the President to accomplish a change in the attitude of the critics. It is axiomatic that if people can be made to talk or think about other things, they will forget to voice opinions about things which they oppose. Some say it Is another ex position of the Roosevelt psychology of keeping people's minds off the de pression. But it has hot succeeded yet Whether it will, remains to be seen. * * * It is to be observed that, for the first time, criticism of the -New Deal plans includes a siz- H H al able attack on the Expenditures ' ast expenditures be-• - ing made Mr. Roose velt has been spending Woney as fasL if not faster, than was spent during the Worldwar, and many persons are now coming. forward with the asser tion that “spending our way out of the depression” may leave the government with such a debt that our children's children still will be paying on iL But right In the face of these attacks, Mr. Roosevelt has brought forth the GWA substitute and a request- that congress appropriate $950,000,000 to pay for it In the meantime and while the con fusion has become worse, confounded, it is to be noted that orders have gone from the Executive offices to the Dem ocratic leaders In congress to get new air mall contract legislation through In a hurry. This legislation Is pred icated on the theory that private air lines shall carry the air mail. Furth er, there is^every reason to believe now that the companies whose con tracts were cancelled so hastily will be allowed to bid again for the jobs. Postmaster General Farley main tains the President was acting In ac cordance with law. when, he ordered th e ' mail contracts canceled. Mt. j RooseveR has said so In several differ- ! ent languages. The fact remains, howi ever, that it always has been the prac tice to accord an opportunity for a bearing; whether the charge he one of fraud or whether it be some other al legation, Ne hearing was granted the air mall contractors. Indeed, they were given less than two weeks of time before they were off of the job, and,the army pilots were doing the work. According to the discussion in congress, It is quite evident there are many influential persons throughout the country who feel the contractors were mot given a fair shake by the BNeident.

Gerard fJ1HAT the United States should carry out a nationalistic policy has recently been brought forcibly to the public by statements of a na tionally known leader, James W-' Gerard, former Ambassador to Ger many and chairman of the Commit tee for America Self-Contained- Of particular interest to the peo ple of the South, was Mr. Gerard’s recent address over a nationwide hook-up, on the need for American economic self-containment. In this he stressed that the application of science, of chemistry in particular, Is aiding America to become eeo- nomicaliy free from the rest of the world. Science, for instance.' has en abled this country to produce the nitrates which . are so extensively utilized by Southern farmers as-fer- tilizer In then P agriculture, and upon the use "of which Southern prosperity is so dependent. Mr. Gerard in his speech did not mention what should be of even greater interest to the -Southern farmer, that is, that nitrates today are made light m the South, at Hopewell, Virginia. Their avail ability. not only makes the South independent of foreign nitrates, but adds to Southern prosperity as well, since their purchase supports a Southern home industry. - Amencan prosperity is dependent up.on the restoration of a balance between the buying, power of-indus try and agriculture, towards which the efforts of the President and his National Recovery Administration are directed. The support of. home industries will help to bring about this objective. Drys Girding For Fight.Voted For Them.

Because it will do m uch to stabilize ie m arket for the cigarette tobacco -ower and assure him a m uch better /orage price for his crop th an he has een able to get for a num ber of years ast. Because it will help m uch to main-= ain or increase the government’s rev- nues derived from cigarette taxes at . time when the government m ust ave the greatest tax revenues with ,e least possible hardship , on the iass of the people. . .. Because it will Gnablo: the manu- .aeturers of the so-called 10-cent cig arettes to continue making this qual ity of product onanincreasiriig scale, thus -providing steady employment for additional thousands of tobacco factory workers at fair-wages. . ■ Because It will provide a healthy competition among the various manu facturers, w ith benefits to all !con cerned—m anufacturer, retail deader, farmer, g o v ern m en t, sm oker and worker—and harm to nobody. Let us look at the proposition in de tail. ... Our company hasbeen in business more th an fifty years, and growing up with it I have had an unusual op portunity to study the tobacco in dustry from-all viewpoints. Kffest Of Taxes - . I have long since learned th a t there are very, few—if any—taxes which do not ail eot the farmer In some way, for he is both a primary producer and a consumer. So a t this time of. agri cultural distress, th e proposed ad justm ent of the cigarette tax is of great importance to him. ; • The m anufac.turers- of llficent cig arettes are having their worries, ,ioo. They never have made much- profit because there isn’t m uch room for profit when you sell a cigarette a t 10 cents.-But their costs have been in creasing and they say th e margin of. profit is so small it may be impossible for them to continue to make 10-cent cigarettes unless one thing happens- T hat one thing is this—tax adjust- mentv As you,know th e federal tax on all kinds of cigarettes am ounts tq 6 cents a package. It-doesn*t m atter how much cigarettes sell for, the tax is the same. • So the m anufacturers of -10-cent cigarettes have asked Oongr ess to re duce th e tax oh,that price smoke by three-fifths of a c en t; to leave the tax on 15-cenh cigarettes a t 6 cents and ^o raise the; tax on more expensive Cigarettes by three-fif ths of a cent. The Ways and Means Oonunitteo of the Bouse of Bepresentatives ha.3 studied the proposalf or several weeks and a special hearing will soon be given by a sub-committee, of which Representative. Bred SI. Vinson of K entucky is chairm an. - Im portance To=Growers I t would be hard to-over-estimate the importance of the 10-cent cigar ette m anufacturers to burley growers. Tt was only about two years ago th at a fe\v m anufacturers started making lC-ce”.t cigarettes. TJp to th a t time four tig companies had 95 per cent of tho cigarette business. During ten years m a n u fa c tu re rs’ profits had been going higher and higher ar.d farm ers’ profits on tobacco had been falling lower-and lower. " It was in 1931 th a t the price of bur ley dropped from 15.59 cents to 8.63 cents. Cigarette co n su m p tio n had been decreasing and the farm er was g e tt i n g th e Worst of the deal. To make m atters worse, there was no competition between the buyers on the tobacco m arket. • The next year the 10-cent cigarette came along. Itw a sju stw h a t th e poor man needed and cigarette consump tion began to increase again. ' “Buyers for these in d e p e n d e n t m akers of low-price cigarettes p u t some competition into the loose leaf market. Of course fanners aren’t get ting w hat they should for their tobac co now, b u t it is "hard to tell w hat might have happened if tho. 10-cent cigarette hadn’t been p u t on them ar- ket. - As I understand it, the m akers of this sort of cigarette, have been able to sell th e c ig a rette a t such a low price because they don’t go in for ex tra v ag a n t, ballyhoo advertising, because they don’t use so m uch ex pensive foreign tobficco as is used in the more expensive cigarettes and because they are satisfied w ith a modest profit.- Before the big m anufacturers had to cut prices to meet competition of the ten-centers, it is estim ated they were making 100 per cent gross profit on the cost Of their products before tax. InvisibIeProfits .The increased costs of labor under the N. R /A ., increased costs of ma terials and equipment and the pro cessing tax have cut profits on 10-cent cigarettes down to less th an two mills a package. In business survival depends en tirely on profits, and the manufac turers of 10-cent cigarettes say th at the graduated taxis absolutely neces sary to their continued operation on the present basis; The thing theyare asking Congress to do seems reasonable enough. The tax on cigarsiS in proportion to the selling price. -Pracrically all taxes are graduated In this way. . The reason there has n o t been a graduated tax on cigarettes is th at the.re never was anyneed for one un- til th e 10-cent cigarettes were pu t on the m arket. PracticaDy all cigarettes sold a t 15 cents a package, or higher. Before the World War, the cigarette tax was 6nly$lJS5'a thousand. In 1917 it was raised to $2.05 and in 1919 to $3.00, or; 6 cents a package. I t never has been changed since-then. Probably-there is no commodity in general use th a t isJtaxed so heavily. The smoker pays about $21 a year in cigarette taxes to the government.

The vote in every respect was conservative/ and a swing! away from same of the radical changes advocated by. those engineering the new deal. The en tire/North.

A small breeze sighed gently, the' odor of white phlox came from behind a white stone! It. was time to find an officer of the law, time to give herself up.' She must do it If she didn't, Molly would do it,'and Involve Beatrice and Rocky. She had come out on the road by now, and was approaching three half grown men who were standing under a large elm tree and staring at her curi ously. She stopped before the boys. “Can you tell me where I can find a policeman ?” The boys looked harder than ever. Perhaps they had already guessed why she bad come. A dark eyed stocky boy jerked his head sideways. “You want the con stable. That’s him.” Under a nearby, tree a lanky old man was stretched out with a police man's cap tilted down over his face. “Hey, Vance, someone wants to see you!” It seemed a long time before the tall skinny constable roused himself. As he got to his feet slowly Doris saw that he was a very old man with a stoop In his thin shoulders. He straightened his hat and blinked for a minute inquiringly. Doris hurried toward him. “Wa—al now,” said the old fellow Amiably as she-came near, ‘-‘you want, to see me about something?" The faded hazel of his eyes twinkled down at her kindly. Doris looked at him, unable to speak for 8 minute. “You’re the officer of the law in charge in this town?” “I guess you might call me that," drawled the old fellow slowly. ‘Tm—Pm—’’ It was hard to say who she was. It seemed so ridiculous ly untrue—“I’m Diane Merreil. The TJhese smart alec cops around here are willing to arrest anybody that they see around wearing skirts.- Why-only the other day they arrested the wife of some young fellow that was up visit ing the'big artist up Jonesbqro way— fellow the name of St, Gardens—you surely have heard of him!” “Yes, I know. I—" Tm going to ask you a few ques tions, and if you can prove to me that you’re Diane Merreil, darned if I don’t arrest you—” He grinned, showing brown .stumps of teeth. “Yes, sir— rather ma’am, I should say, darned if I don’t arrest you. Let’s see. Now if you are Diane Merreil, you can tell me a few things about yourself, can’t you?” ‘‘Why yes, I suppose so—but I shouldn’t think—” “Wa—al. first of all, what’s your father’s full name?” She racked her brains. Why hadn’t she noticed-that when she was.reading the papers? “Why—let’s see. Charles—no. John Merreil.” “It’s Samuel. But I’ll give you an other question—” He eyed her hu morously. “Let’s see? Where was it you went to school?” “Why I went to—look here, what is the use of all these questions? If I give myself up for murder, that ought to be enough, isn’t it?” The constable swung himself back to his desk. “Wa—al nest time yon give yourself up you better get more information. Mr. Merrell’s name is Samuel, and I remember you went to Vassar. Now you go on back to your mamma and your papa. I expect they’re looking for you right now.” Doris rose. She would have to go on to the next town, find a bigger place. There must be hundreds of policemen who were willing to arrest her. “Don’t know as I ought to let you go. Somebody will be around lookin’ for you like as not, and you’re liable to get into trouble.” He spoke half to himself. Before “I See It AU Now.' School Girls Together. Rocky the Blg Galahad. No body.

I—” She could - not make out the old man's attitude. He was stooping over on the ground fumbling for something he had dropped. He found it at last and straightened. It was a pipe. Then he began a long search in his trousers pockets-for a pouch full of tobacco. “When you’ve been in this world as long as I have,” he said slowly, “you’ll learn it don't pay to get yourself ex cited." “But don’t you understand—’ “Why, you’re all worked up. You come on into my office and we'll see if we can’t straighten this thing out. • Dazedly Doris was beginning to real ize tbat the old man had not taken her seriously. Perhaps he had never heard of Diane-Merreil.He turned and began walking very slowly toward a ramshackle store that was nearby.Doris followed' him. There was no one in the gloomy in- terior of the dark store. At the back was a door with “Constable” marked In large black letters. It led into a small office where Doris followed the old man. . ,He seated himself In a swivel chair very deliberately. “ Tout everybodys been In for their mall, so I guess w«* won’t be interrupted,” be said.•Tm afraid you can’t have tukrn what I said very seriously. Constable, said Doris abruptly.■•Wa al now, let’s talk a little bU- about it What makes you think you’re Diane Merreil? Vou know there have been lots of girls found, don't you? went on the constable. “Why now, if I was to arrest you and. send you on up to the police in New Jersey you d be about number ten on the list.’ He chuckled. “Don’t know a girl should want to be in her shoes, though.’ Doris felt that she was wasting tune. The office-was a“ blurred jumble. How was she to convince him of her earnest- he could make up his mind Dorift. marched out As she made her way through the empty store she noticed the sign. “Western Union.” She could send a telegram to her father collect: Sam uel Merreil, Morristown, New Jersey. Then if the old man wanted to bold her there, let him. He was pottering along after her slowly. “Where’s the telegraph operator?” **Wa—al now, you want to send a telegram?” “Yes, certainly.” “Who you going to telegraph?” Doris looked ,at him -silently. Sho felt that she was being rude to the old man who was being kind to her In his way, but her patience was ebbing. “I’ll tell that to the telegraph oper ator.” “I’m him.” "But—”“Yep. I’m him. I’m the postmaster, too, and the storekeeper here. You see I’m quite a fellow in these parts. Wouldn’t think it to look at me now, would you?” He handed her a tele graph blank. “S'pose you want to send it col lect?”“Yes,” said Doris furiously. “All right Write it out Let me see what it is.” Doris took hold of the blank angrily. When this old fellow found out the truth- he wouldn’t be quite so sure of himself. She wrote rapidly: “Samuel Merreil, MorristowiC1 New Jersey.“I am here in—” She interrupted her work to ask, “What is the name of this town?” “Cherry Corners, Vermont” 'Doris wrote—‘“Cherry Corners, Ver- iront. I want to give myself up to the police.” She signed the message Diane. She handed it to thedged oper ator, who scrutinized it closely for some seconds.(TO BE CONTINUED.) Scott Popularized the Novel Sir Walter Scott -was the first to make the novel popular among the widest mass of readers and Balzac made of the novel the most importanl literary vehicle of modern civilization Woman’s Eight to Thought of Self I W eak n ess in S elf-S acrifice Is W ith b u t S en se o f P ro p o rtio n .. 1 ,A school to make wives selfish! . That, is the demand of Mary Pick- ford. , “Women,” she siys, “ought to be taught how to be reasonably selfish ; there ought to be u school where they could learn; “Kindness is sometimes the most ■ devastating and weakening influence. And wives especially make this mis take. It is the unselfish ones who ruin themselves and everyone de pending upon them.1” •One- New Year’s resolution .she made, says our own Mary, and that was to treat herself as well as she treats the persons she likes best. That is not a bad resolution. Every wife and mother, should show herself the consideration she shows those she cares for—consideration for her health, consideration for her disposi tion, consideration for. her looks. Her husband and children will benefit by all of that But this writer takes issue with our own Mary. No woman, and no human being on earth should be taught or learn how to be selfish. No wife ever made a mistake In not be ing selfish, nor can she do any good to anyone else or to herself by being, selfish. Selfishness is a poison that warps one’s soul and leaves one for ever unsatisfied. It is like a hole that keeps growing bigger as you try to fill it up. Nobody who has lived a while in this world and made observations can wish any woman to be selfish. It must be just a confusion of terms be tween our own Mary’s Idea of selfish ness and the real meaning of the word. Perhaps when she speaks of wom en losing by being unselfish she means by being weak, by lacking -stamina. .-She may be thinking of mothers who “spoil” their children by over-indulgence. But that is not un selfishness. In fact it is something -closer to selfishness, for it is taking the easier way at the expense of the loved one. Perhaps by the too ^“kind” and “unselfish” wife our Mary means a stupid wife, or a wife without a sense of proportion. She may have thought of a woman who Cld not know enough to “treat, herself right” or one who’s conception of love was the blind and unthinking adoration of a primitive slave for a mystic idol. If a, school is necessary to correct such faults In women and wives, then let us have one by all means. But let us not confuse them withMack of selfishness, and let us not condone or approve or suggest to anyone that selfishness might be anything but what it is—something ugly and de structive and unsatisfying.. Bell SyndIcatc--WNtJ Service. W olf W ins Hobors as Super “Police Dog” Around the world has gone the fame of a wolf, probably the sole illustrious wolf on record," and it Is in a Chinese magazine that one learns of him now, though he lives in Austria, and rates as Europe's smartest, says the Literary Digest He was a cub in the Boshianwoods when a Vienna police clerk, but hunt ing, captured him six years ago, and began to train him with animals al ready in service^ Last year the wolf took first prize at an international police dog show, making not a slhgle mistake in tests for training, skill, and accuracy. He had won more than two hundred prizes before that Commenting on his brilliant ca reer, the China Journal remarked, “We are not surprised to learn of this wolfs accomplishments, -for it is the experience of every hunter who has matched his wits against wolves that they are possessed of an Intelligence which is uncanny In Its human qualities, and to It Is added super-sharpened senses of hearing and smell as well as an unerring In stinct in detecting danger from man. Unquestionably the so-called Alsatian owes its superior intelligence to the fact that it is little more than a ,do mesticated wolf, notwithstanding that many lovers of this breed hold views to the contrary.” Your local dealer-carries Ferry’s Pure Bred Vegetable Seeds..

The citizens of the town wrote scorching articles for The Record condemning the skating rink, and declaring "the morals of the young people were be- iug demoralized. One preacher at least, preached a special sermon on the evils of shaking. Nor- pool rooms were allowed in the town, and every lady was supposed to be at home before dark.

CLMAMj8_,4j4 DEFINES BANKERS’ PART IN RECOVERY H ead of A m erican B ankers A s sociation A ssures the P resi dent of Confidence and I D esire to C ooperate I A m ong B ankers WASHINGTON, D. C. — President Roosevelt in his address before the NRA conference here on March 5 an nounced that he had received the fol lowing telegram from Francis M. Law, President of the American Bankers As sociation: ' “On this your first anniversary please allow me in behalf of the country’s banks to express our full confidence and our sincere desire to cooperate in your courageous efforts to bring about recovery.*** The banking structure of the country is sound and liquid and banks have never been In stronger po sition to function effectively. Condi tions have improved to the point where- it is no longer necessary for banks to - be super-liquid.*** There is a definite call now for banks, not to extend loose credits or to make improper loans, but for a most sympathetic attitude toward legitimate credit needs and for a recog nition of responsibility for their proper and vital part in the program of re covery.” The Soundness of Banking In an address before a recent trust conference of the association’s Trust Division In New York, Mr. Law said: “A depression cannot long survive a sound banking structure if the banking structure is responsive to legitimate needs and functions in.a way that is virile and alive. The most cheering fact of the present situation'is the knowl edge that banks are in strong position. “Recovery, even to the most pessi mistic, is no longer a myth or a rumor, nor is it merely psychological. Abun dant evidence and proof lie on every hand—tangible proof. With a return of confidence the wheels have begun to go round and a great many well managed businesses may look for a profit during this calendar year with fair assurance at least. For what has been achieved let us thank the President, who has j labored with courage and patience and vision. Let us thank the Congress, whose members during the emergency have put the public welfare above par tisanship. Let us thank one hundred twenty-five million of our own^sitlzens who have refused to be stampeded, but rather who have kept alive the"dlvihe spark of faith and hope. Cause for Confidence "We may reasonably expect that the recent action of the government in sta bilizing the dollar will have a marked tendency to encourage industrial and other business commitments. Business men need not be so exclusively engaged In taking counsel of their fears' now that uncertainty does not haunt them. “Much has been said about the-loos- •ing of credit by banks. During the acute period of the depression banks for the most part have not been lending nor mally, nor should theybe blamed. With, public confidence shattered the banker was properly concerned in liquidity, having In mind his primary obligation to pay off deposits. The situation has improved to the point where -super- , liquidity no longer seems necessary. Conditions have materially changed. Banks will desire, for every reason, to return to a more normal lending policy. Tbis means a sympathetic attitude and a recognition of responsibility for his proper part in the program of recovery by the banker as he passes upon and meets sound credit requirements of business as it swings into and con tinues on the upward turn.” BANK LOANS-AND 1 BUSINESS RECOVERY Official D escribes Efforts of Re- ( serve B anks to B ring O ut-. D eserving B orrow ers— P resent Situation T ypical Apropos of the part that an expan sion of business loans by banks occu pies in the early stages of the business recovery which is how gaining head way, a Federal Reserve Bank official recently gave an interesting review of the experiences of his institution in this connection. In 1932 the Federal Reserve Banks were empowered by law to make direct loans to individuals' in unusual circumstances when they had been unable to obtain loans from a commercial bank, he pointed out. From the middle of 1932 to the end of 1933 there were 1,286 applicants for loans at the New York Federal Reserve Bank under this law. The great major ity of these applications proved on ex amination to be for funds for capital purposes, which are properly supplied as an investment in the business, or else were mortgage loans or others un- classifiable as commercial. Unly Fourteen Qualify Only 250, or less than 20 per cent, were of the type which merited de tailed Investigation. Tiie amount in volved was §9,525,000. After further study of these, the Federal Reserve Bank was forced to turn down the ap plications of 236, finally offering credit ‘in the sum of §1,417,000 to 14 prospec tive borrowers. Of this amount, only §806,000 was actually loaned, more than one-half of which was still outstanding many months later. Two of the borrow ers went into receivership.' “Since it was the special endeavor of the Federal Reserve Bank to make every possible loan under the emer gency provisions of the amendment, and since their best efforts resulted in the extension of so small a sum as to •have no effect on the total volume of commercial loans, it is a reasonable as sumption that eligible borrowers en titled to bank credit are being provided for by the commercial banks,” says the American Bankers Association Journal in commenting on this episode. It is characteristic, as shown by studies of past business cycles, for changes in the volume of commercial bank credit to follow behind either com traction or- expansion of business ac tivity, says a financial writer in the New York Times. This was manifest recently in England’s recent recovery where there was a lag between. in creased business and increased com mercial loans. Believe It Or N ot1.

Lesson for April I THE CHRIST RISEN (EasterLesson) LESSON TEXT—John..J0.-1-29. GOLDEN TEXT—If y« then be risen with Christ, seek thoso things which are above, where Christ sltteth on the right hand of God.—Co!. 3:1. INTERMEDIATE AND SEN IO R TOPIC—Living W ith the Living Christ.TODNG PEOPLE AND ADDLT TOP IC—Tho Reality of the Resurrection*. The resurrection of Christ Is one of the foundation truths of Christianity. Xt Is the grand proof that Christ was what he claimed to be, the Messiah, the Son of God (Matt 12:29-40; John 2:19-21). I. The Empty Tomb (vv. 1-10). John does not enter Into a descrip tion of the resurrection of ChrIsL or give any proof other than the empty tomb and that Jesus had repeatedly manifested himself .afterward. To see the body of Christ disfigured wfth a spear thrust and nail prints, and the empty tomb, was all that faith needed. In thl3 lesson John describes the proc esses of his own conviction touching Christ's resurrection. 1. The testimony of Mary Magdai Iefie (vv. I, 2). This woman, out-of whom Jesus had cast seven demons (Mark 16:9; Luke 8:2), announced the fact of the empty tomb to Peter and John. Prompted by great love to him for his kindness to her, she went early to the tomb even “when It was yet dark.” She had realized great good at his hand, therefore she could not rest until she had-done her utmost for him. The measure of one’s service for Christ is the degree In which he real izes the benefits conferred. 2. Personal Investigation by Peter and John (w. 3-10). The news of'the empty tomb which Mary brought so moved John and Peter that they both ran to investigate. Their Investigation assured them of the reality of the res urrection. The removal of the stone from the sepulcher, and the arrange ment of the grave clothes, convinced them that this would not have been done by an enemy. II.

She first saw the angels and then her eyes lighted upon the Lord. She did . not recognize him In his resurrection body but his voice was familiar to her. As soon as he called her by name she recognized him and fell at his feet weeping. d. JesuS forbade her to touch him (v. 17). This showed that she was now coming Into a new relationship to him.

Masses of (lutings, ruchings and fine pleatings of sheerest organdies, swisses, mousselines and nets make it seem as if milady's spring-hatted head was rising from out a halo of billowy whiteness.

This fabric, with rabbit fur woven In to it, is very; soft to the touch and Its cord ed surface brings it right up to the moment in chic. Then, too, It is un believably light weight which Is an other reason added to Its good looks why style creators are showing such enthusiasm for these weaves. The white galyak scarf adds a touch of Infinite chic. Its flyaway lines take their cue from the much discussed air plane and wing effects. The hip length box-jacket with swagger sad die shoulder is a high-style note. With its horizontal use of the striping the modish wrap-around skirt contrast? pleasantly with the vertical and hori zontal stripes of the jacket Ripplecl revers of ermine, a white ribbed satin blouse together with a patrician styling makes the suit to the right an outstanding number.

W EAR FLOW ERS By CHERIE NICHOLAS : Wlththereturn of feminine elegance and charm, women are again wearing real flowers. A single orchid secure in one of the very new and practical tube pins is the smart thing to wear on the shoulder of your chic bouclet suit, as photographed in the picture herewith. Orchids should always be worn stems down. With tailored clothes-the small eypripedium or Iady- slipper orchid Is correct and ultra. What could be lovelier: for, formal oc casions than a beautiful corsage of orchids, the aristocrat of the flower world? For evening, a corsage of two or three orchids simply tied with rib bon matching the flowers or stems is In high fashion. Windswept Hats A windswept effect is remarked on fashionable heads. 'Hair is dressed swept back from the face and hats are worn rolled back from foreheads.

Tailored in silhouette, you can take your touches either in crisp effects or In the, softer ruffly effects. Also, nel is now being shown In the very hap piest colors. There is something.about black net, but it comes in appealing blues, the summer tones of yellow peach. Typical of net frocks was one in black, flared from jhe knee to the hemline—which showed considerable of a silver slipper and a gleaming buckle.

She was devot ed to her children, to her church, anfi actually loved her husband. Every day of her , life-she did charity- work, or talked about it She believed In sending missionaries to convert this heathen. She loved art, and lived In an emotional and sentimental atmos phere all her life, to the entire neglect of practical common sense and educa tion; she talked Incessantly of justice for her subjects, and actually treated them so badly that finally they beat her to death, together with her hus band and children. Katherine, also of Russia, was not a beautiful character; In fact, a good deal of a tom boy, but no one ever charged her with being a sentimental fool, She was so much devoted to common sense- that she invited Vol taire, master of IL to her court; she bid against Frederick the Great In an attempt to buy him, that he might give her subjects the benefit of his wisdom. No fortune tellers or mystics were admitted to her circle of friends or advisers; had she Invited a Rasputin to her court by the back stairway, she would have-slapped his mouth had he talked the nonsense Rasputin talked to the last empress of Russia. I don’t know there Is any;moral to this, but It is a curious Incident In his. tory I often think about . • * * "A woman’s Idea of Utopia,” .a wife writes, “is to have her husband far smarter than she Is In the necessary activities of life. Such a husband earns more money than she-could, and spends and Invests It with better sense. He makes It possible for her to be with interesting and important people. He flatters her constantly, and considers it definitely his business to make her life a success. She has time to keep herself decorative.” . . . .This will flatter the men a little, and the poor devils get so little of it I have gone to the trouble of reprint ing it • • * From the beginning of the human race every man of reasonable Intelli gence has finally admitted that nat ural law Is the supreme power, and cannot be changed. What we call the Capitalistic System (and which so many say Is tottering) Is natural law. Every race of men has practiced IL hated It; millions have said there Is no death, but every one has defeated 'tits own argument by dying. . . . Get food, clothing, shelter; extract from life such comfort as Is In IL That Is the law of Nature and of the Capital istic System. Living In idleness off the neighbors is the doctrine of a rebel thrown out of God’s kingdom. • * • At one time Silerius was ,In effect dictator of old Rome.. Silerlus nowhere says this In his writing, but the In troduction to the memoirs sags SUer- ius was head of the army, and ..close adviser and friend of the .emperor, a weaker .man. In that ancient time Silerius was In the position of the modern Mussolini In Italy, -or Hltier In Germany, although not . an equally great brawler. Silerlus confesses In his memoirs that were he free to completely order the affairs of the people, he could not think of a plan better, than, the-.plan they had worked out for themselves. He often thought, he said, of an Ideal world, but the old human nature al ways. Intruded. and he could agree on no pian that would probably work better. Silerius was a vigorous, adventuring man. with women, and thought. much of better relations between the sexes, but concluded at last that a hew and better way, offering less quarreling and suffering, could not be devised. “The charges of the men and women against each other are true," he said, “but I can think of no remedy.” In bis time the political parties were distinguished by colors; the radicals were called blues, the con servatives greens, etc. He sided with neither; charges of both were true, he decided, as were the charges of the poor against the rich, the charges of the rich against the poor, but he did not bankrupt his government trying relief plans, as he could think out no remedy promising success. « • * “Give me one more day, month or year.” a man usually says to God In his prayer, “and I will become greaL I feeU have it In me. If given time to get it ouL I know.what the trouble Is with the world, but somehow I have not yet convincingly framed and pointed It out. I love the higher life, but somehow the lower haa swamped me.

That-Was when North Adams joined the procession of modern cities and motorized its fire department That meant from hose cart to dump cart for Maggie and Maude. In view of -their long service they were given light work and liberal oats by way of old age pension. “Their career was drab enough until this winter’s fury piled blizzard upon blizzard for the hill towns of western Massachusetts. The snow became too deep for North Adams’ snappy fire equipment. But the chief remembered Maggie and Maude. “They were brought back to the old station. Spare tires' and retired checker tables were cleared Out and their old stalls were bedded down. One fancies they looked in vain for the familiar hanging harness and probably gazed disdainfully at the oily drip pans under the fire engine. But when the hose truck they had hauled In other days was fixed up with runners, Maggie and Maude may have , exchanged a ladylike equine chuckle over the belated rec ognition of their worth. “Nor are Maggie and Maude the only, hcrses to have the laugh on their modern rivals. Throughout the deep snow zone of the EasL sleds and cutters are passing up stalled autos and trucks, and the pleasant ring of sleigh bells' resounds where It had not been heard for many years. Up in Yermoht and New Hampshire where they never try to explain away deep snow the horses have their day every winter; "But it takes an old-fashioned win ter to demonstrate the old-fashioned reliability of Maggie and Maude.

N e w s R e v ie w o f C u r r e n t E v e n ts t h e W o r ld O v e r President Roosevelt Asks Congress to Provide for 12 Banks to Help Small Trade— Mussolini Predicts W orld Fascist Era in 60 Years— Rickenbacker Causes Stir. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, Id a let ter to the senate and house bank ing committees, asked congress to set np twelve industrial credit banks which he had been told would safe guard the jobs of 346,000 persons and create work for 378,000 more. Imme diately after the President’s wishes were known legislation was introduced in both houses giving the federal re serve system authority to create the banks, financing them by selling $140,- 000,000 of stock to the treasury. The plight of the “small or medium size” industrialist was stressed by the President, and he cited results of a sur vey indicating that such Industry was badly in -need of $700,000,000 working capital. The President asked for “early con sideration” of his proposal, pointing out that the situation called for "im mediate relief.” The President’s letter to Chairmen Fletcher and Steagall of the senate and house banking committees said the proposed banks would be com trolled by directorates a majority of which will themselves be industrial ists. Mr. Roosevelt said: “I have, been deeply concerned with the situation In our small industries. In numberless cases their working cap ital has beeD lost or seriously depleted. "We have afforded much aid in the recovery of agriculture, commerce, our larger industries and our financial In stitutions, and our improved condition nationally furnishes .full .justification for these efforts. We must continue In behalf of the medium size man in industry and commerce.” The credit banks proposed in the bills Introduced would be chartered by the existing Federal Reserve banks and be operated subject to the regula tions of the reserve board. They would set up branches. Mussolini O PEAKING before' an assembly of 5.000 cheering chief Fascists Premier Mussolini outlined a 60-year program of internal and external ex pansion -which, he predicted, would in the Twenty-first cen tury give Italy the “primacy of the world.” That century, he said, will be a “black shirt era.” “In this age of plans,” Il Duce de clared. “I want to lay before you a plan not for five years or ten years but for 6p years carrying on to the Twenty-first century, at which time Italy will have the primacy of the world. “Italy has no future in the West and North. Her future lies to the East and South In Asia and Africa. The vast resources of Africa must be valorized and Africa brought within the civilized circle. “I do not refer to conquest of teis-- rltory but to natural expansion. We demand that nations which have al ready arrived in Africa do not block at every step Italian expansion.” Here, it was said, he was referring particularly to France. Internally, Mussolini said, im mediate objectives are completion of swamp reclamation by 1940, new aque ducts and highways, plans to recreate Italian municipalities, complete re building of 500.000 rural houses and repairs to 930,000 rural houses, a work of 30 years. “Every rural person will have a clean and healthy house,” he asserted. “Only in this , way can the rush to the city be combated.” In the midst of a pandemonium ot applause Mussolini said Fascism “be came universal in 1929.” “But In this phenomenon,” he con- tinned, “it is necessary to distinguish positive from negative Fascism. Posi tive Fascism knows how to destroy the old and rebuild the hew, whereas negative Fascism knows only how to destroy.” CECRETAItY MORGENTHAO re- P -ported to President Roosevelt that income tax receipts for the first, quar ter of the year were, well above esti mates and far. more than a year ago. Fayrnenim to the close of business March 15, the day when all returns were due. were $147,794,000. In an nouncing tltis figure on the basis of telegraphic reports from collectors, the treasury, said corresponding collections last year were $99,847,000. . In 1933, however, the date for filing, returns was extended from March 15 to March 31, after the bank' holiday. Treasury estimates of income tax payments for March are $25Q.QOO,09P as compared with $174,000,000 last March, v ■ A DEMAND by. Col. Edward V. Rickenbacker, famous war ace, that President Roosevelt “purge his oflS- Cial family of traitorous members” who advised him to cancel air mail contracts, threw the senate post office committee into: an uproar Saturday. Chairman -McKeller charged Rick enbacker with making a “political speech” and accused him of “attacking the President." Rickenliacker replied? “I am not nttacklhg tiie President. It is my confidence in him that I do not want destroyed.” Rickenbacker’s statements came ex temporaneously after reading a pre pared statement denouncing cancella tion of contracts as “unfair and un- American,” and after cross-examina tion. arising from the witness chair, he declared cancellation bad “caused doubt in the minds of millions of Amer icans.”. He continued: “It is the doubt in the minds of mil lions whether ail the President has so ably accomplished, such as the NRA, CWAt gold content and others, has been proven or has had time to be proven, or whether they are as big a mistake as the cancellation of the air mail contracts; whether tomorrow that also may be questionable.” . Rickenbacker agreed with Lind bergh and Chamberlin that a federal aviation commission should be named to take charge of the industry at once and that the proposed bill is “destruc tive to industry.” T RACTS urging the public to donate cash to promote the sport of flying in Germany were circulated in Berlin Sunday. Dnder the Versailles treaty public funds are not permitted to be used to stimulate aviation, but the leaflet points out that the treaty does not -refer to pri vate initiative, and f,HfllV- adds: / i f p ? ! “We are unable to construct military planes, but the devel opment of the sport of Bying and training German people as fly ers is entirely depend ent upon ourselves and our readiness to make sacrifices.” The demand for a German air force was also emphasized by Gen. Her mann Wilhelm Goering, premier of Prussia and reichsminister of aviation, in speaking at a flying exhibition at the Essen airport. Goering declared that Germany can enjoy no security, no --peace, - no - equality until she is granted the right to defend herself in the air. This demand cannot be al tered, the air minister proclaimed. “If other countries are permitted the heaviest weapons of attack In the air, Germany at least must be given the right of defense,” he said. . Premier Goering CAMDEL INSDLL, fugitive utilities magnate, is, at this writing, some where on the high seas aboard his chartered freighter Maiotis, bound for an unknown asylum. The Maiotis Is the boat on which InsuII made his se cret escape from Greece, and which was ordered to return by the authori ties when his absence from his hotel In Athens was discovered. Later he was givpn permission to depart Reports are vague as to. his destina tion. Some say he is bound for Abys sinia and that be wouid find refuge there • from the- indictments returned against him in Chicago. An Athens lawyer who has repre sented Insull denied that Abyssinia was the goal, but be would not sug gest any alternative. His reticence was attributed to fears that a kidnap plot was -being laid to snatch InsuU from his slow-moving ship on the high seas. - - On . the other hand, friends of the fugitive in his seventeen-month fight' against extradition to the Dnited States said that the Maiotis might re main at seji until April 20 “or perhaps longer.” - T HE Bankhead compulsory cotton control bill, designed to stabilize cotton prices, passed the house Mon day. This measure would limit pro duction in the coming cotton year to 10,000,000 bales and levy a tax of 50 per cent of the market value on staple produced in excess of quotas allocated to producers. ' A FTEU being grounded for eight days following a series of crashes that killed ten men in twenty-two days, Dnited States army pilots took to, the air again with the mail on Mon- ■day. .- Precautions to put planes and men into safest possible condition have been taken by army officials. Blind and night flying equipment has been installed, in planes. Two-way radio facilities have been put into planes on transcontinental routes, and soon :wiU be in all planes in mall service. Dnder the new setup the army will cover, about 40 per cent of the route mUeage formerly flown by the com mercial lines, according to Maj. Gen. Benjamin; D. Foulois, chief of the air ,.corps. ^ P RESIDENT AND MRS. ROOSE- t velt celebrated the twenty-ninth anniversary of their wedding with a quiet: family dinner In the* White House. It was strictly a family af fair, just as tiie event 29 years ago was strictly a family affair. A few intimate friends were invited over for dinner. Mrs- Jnmes Roosevelt, elghty- two-year-old mother of the president, came down from her borne In New -York. Other, immediate,-members of . the family were also present The White House was flooded with messages from aU over the country with flowers from close friends. SPEAKEK ,RAINEY, “irked by so ' many old-time regulars breaking away from the administration on vet erans’ legislation, has ordered a- de tailed check to show which house Dem ocrats voted “wrong” - on 21 dif ferent occasions. Rainey and other leaders are unwilling to admit that they plan any action against the out standing irregulars. They say . that nothing tangible can be done.- “But we’ll have the information showing how many men have voted against ns and on what occasions,” the speaker said. ' Many things could be done with the tabulation. If, for example, Post master Genera] Farley; Democratic patronage dispenser, should telephone the speaker, it would be a simple mat ter fdr Rainey to refer to the list and see what the record showed. Rainey classes 21 bills and resolu tions as "administration.” A glance at the list would show: - Hoeppel of California has opposed 12 of them, Terrell of Texas, 11; Con nery of Massachusetts, chairman of the labor committee, 8, and Crosser of Ohio, chairman of the Democratic steering committee, 7. I N A new revolt against administra tion policy the house insisted on adding more than $200,000,000 in vet erans’ benefits and government pay to the federal outlays Sn the next ,fiscal year. However, this was a compromise, for the amendment adopted by the house involves a total annual expendi ture of aproximately $90,000,000 for veterans as compared with the $118,- 000,000 called for under the veterans’ amendment adopted by the senate. Briefly summarized, the house meas ure as sent to conference provides: 1. That all Spanish-American war veterans be restored to the pension rolls on a basis of 75 per cent of what they received. prior to enactment of the economy bill last session. 2. That all World war veterans with service connected disabilities be re stored to the rolls on a full basis. 3. That World war veterans with presumptive - disabilities be returned to the rolls on a 75 per cent basis. In addition, it eliminates pensions for emergency officers, pensions for the widows of the men lost in airship disasters, and knocks out the so-called Borah amendment limiting the resto ration of the federal pay cut to per sons receiving less than $6,000 a year. SENATOR WAGNER of New York, chairman of the national iabor board, has put forth a warning that unless "misconstruction” and “evasion” of the collective bargaining provisions of the National Industrial Recovery Act are checked “we may expect to witness a vast swelling of industrial unrest with the coming of spring." Secretary of Labor Perkins joined with Wagner and other witnesses be fore the board in urging the passage jof Wagner’s bill "which would> create a permanent labor board and outlaw employer influence over the organiza tion of employees. Representatives of the American Federation of Labor demand that employers be-forced to recognize the "unions and; predict gen eral -strikes especially in the automo,- bile industry unless prompt action is taken to satisfy the men. Senator Lewis D ESPITE the fact that President Roosevelt phoned personally to a number of senators of both parties seeking to persuade them to vote for ratification of the St. ’ Lawrence waterway treaty, the pact was defeated In the sen ate by a vote of 46 to 42. Thus the affirma tive vote was far be low the required two- thirds of those voting. Party lines were dis regarded. - Twen t y- two Democrats voted against ratification, along with 20 Repub licans. In favor of the pact were 31 Democrats, 14 Republicans and I Farmer-Laborite. Mr. Roosevelt, it was said in Wash ington, was decidedly vexed by this defeat of a major administration measure, and he began preparations to resubmit the treaty at a future session of congress. Senator James Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois, Democratic whip of the senate and one of the leading op ponents. of the rejected treaty, pre dicted that Canada wouid soon offer the Dnited States a substitute treaty. This may be true, but dispatches re veal that in Montreal, at least, the de feat of the pact was hailed with Joy because business men there think the project too expensive to be undertak en at this- time. The President’s'warn- > ing that Canada would, on its own initative, build an all-Canadian water way seems to be met by this news from Montreal. _ Chicago and the Mississippi valley are blamed by Mr. Roosevelt for the' rejection of the treaty, and there is no doubt that their arguments against1 the proposed restriction of diversion of water from Lake Michigan to 1,500 cubic -feet a second-were potent This ■ amount according -to Senator Lewis and other Middle Wesf senators, wduld be wholly 'Iffadeqtlate To maIritaln nav- 1 lgation on the' Mississippi waterway. The Atlantic seaboard senators, too, were almost solidly against the treaty. If the treaty is resubmitted, the clauses concerning the sovereignty of Lake Michigan and the Chicago di version may be omitted; but Senator Lewis said: “So far as I am concerned —and I believe I speak also for sev eral others—I shall not be satisfied with a mere omission, but shall de mand that Internationalization of Lake Michigan and the limitation Cf the sanitary district diversion shall ’ be specifically-renounced by Canada.’I © by Western Newspaper UQkjn. r.

W illiam MitchelL Washington.—Coincident with moves yoir a-'united-air force, the administra tion: summoned several of the nation’s most famous aviators to investigate the. army air mail "service and to help strengthen the country’s air defense. -Secretary 'of Wa. Dera appointed CoL Charles A. Lindbergh, CoL Clar ence D. Chamberlin and Orville Wright to a committee to investigate the army’s attempt at mail carrying, which cost ten lives before President Roose velt curtailed operations. Lindbergh declined to serve on the committee, reiterating his opposition to the carrying of the air mail by the army. The President himself held a lunch eon conference with Gen. William Mitchell, former chief of the air corps and 'long a champion of a unified air force. Mitchell’s visit caused belief the President might be considering a unified air force as a means of elimi nating weaknesses in the army corps. Meanwhile post office and army of ficials prepared a skeleton air mail service on nine routes, as bitter con troversy waged in congress both as to administration handling of air mail matters to date and also as to pro posed permanent air mail legislation’ which has administration backing. With criticism of its wholesale can cellation of air mail contracts still echoing, the administration proposed to congress that a new ship subsidy plan he substituted “gradually” for the existing ocean mail system. The proposal was transmitted to congress by Secretary Roper.- It sug gested inauguration of an outright sub sidy plan accomplished “if possible through mutual agreement to prevent demoralization of the industry.” WASHINGTON BRIEFS Between 30 and 40 blind persons, some of them women, soon will be al lowed to sell newspapers in the cor ridors of government buildings. A District of Columbia grand jury refused to return indictments In its investigation of an alleged conspiracy to defraud the government on War de partment contracts.

The National Capital was In! the midst of-its worst epidemic of measles since 1921. Health service officials re ported 555 cases of measles in one week, or more than were reported dur ing the whole of 1933. President Roosevelt sent to the sen ate a- number of- promotions in the army, virtually recasting the make-up of this service. He named as major generals Lucius Roy Holbrook and Frank Sherwood Cocbeu, now-briga dier generals.

His punishment was fixed by the jury at 99 years in the penitentiary, the same penalty that was recently Imposed on three of his confederates in the crime —Roger Touhy, Albert Kator and Gus Schaefer.

Deai a year .ago. it is 4tD ieeins In” strIhing to note the similaiity of action them and in the two weeks subsequent to-the opening of his second year In office. The “New Deal” opened its second 'year In the midst ‘ot a ‘series of. events that.were comparable, in my. opinion, with those of the historic inaugural week , of 1932. And as the “New Deal” was all-embracing as re gards our economic and social struc ture, just so were the events which I am reporting now definitely linked with the very fundamentals of our in dividual and national existence. .W e became accustomed, during the dark days of the World war, to read ing about this, army or that “digging in” , to hold the ground gained. It appears to me. that the outstanding fact with relation to the opening of the New Deal’s second year is the digging In process represented by the latest developments. Let us examine, them. First, there was President Roose velt’s momentous speech in which he calmly told the country that the prin ciples of NRA were here to stay; second, there was a decision by the Supreme court of the Dnited States beyond which none can go for. legal adjudication, by which the New York milk licensing. law was held constitu tional, and a few days later the con gress gave approval to the so-called big navy bill which can be construed- no other way than a reflection of soUd na tionalistic feeling. M r.. Roosevelt’s ,speech, of course, stood out, but bad the Supreme court ruled that the state of New York had no right to fix a minimum price for milk, there can be no doubt that the basis of much of the New Deal would bi\in to crumble. Had the congress turned away from the big navy idea— that is, ordering construction of our navy to the limits of treaty agreement •—It would have dented that nation alistic policy seriously, although the New Deal schemes generally have not touched on the question of defense. -Rejection of . the. big navy plan neces sarily would have bad the effect of raising some doubt as to the Presi dent’s control, and one hears about Washington the suggestion that Mr. Roosevelt will have plenty of trouble U congress gets too independent. * * •- As a part and parcel of the Presi dent’s enunciation in the speech. Gen- " era] Johnson, of “We Are Not NRA, called upon G oing BacW’ industrJ t0 reduce .^ bou rs hmd raise wages further. The militant “crack down” Johnson was not as suave in his statements as was Mr. Roosevelt and words of protest boiled right out of the meeting where be spoke. But whether the industries represented in the conference with General Johnson are willing or able to do as he de clared was- necessary, every one In Washington is -'convinced that- Mr. Roosevelt meant exactly what he said when he solemnly declared: “One thing is very certain. We are not going back.” The , President, was equally un equivocal in bis assertion that the . principles of recovery, embodied in NRA, must move forward. Industry, can well take notice of that. If Wash ington opinion may be taken as a cri terion. The President holds that the NRA principles provide for a balanced recovery and that without a balance, there can be no permanent good times. So it is the proposition that Mr. Roose velt has determined to go on, that a majority of the highest court In the land has found one of his basic ideas, although embodied- in a state statute, to be in accordance with the Const!-, tution, and he has a congress that is thus far under his control for enact ment of the bulk of his New Deal leg islation. The effect? As far as I know, there Is no person of super-intelligence now Iiving, and that would be the only human being capable of foretelling what the results wil .be. The changes made under the New Deal -are brand :new, different than anything econ omists hfive'ever • seen, -and time- alone will reveal which of them holds the things that fit our country’s normal life, Politically, it is quite apparent what the effect will be. Every mother’s son In the Democratic party in cbngress is going back to bis' bailiwick to seek re-election under the Roosevelt ban ner, as distinguished from the old Democratic flag. Espousing Roose velt’s program will be popular in tiie bulk of the districts, and the Repub lican opposition WiU just as obviously have to Jbe predicated:-on issues built up against what , the present adminis tration has .done, is doing or proposes to do, • • • • The “big navy” bill is a five-year proposition. It contemplates’ that the American navy win uBigNao3T be expanded by the Program construction of suf-. . ficient. ships of the various types-to place the totals-just Inside the limitation of the London and Washington treaties by which tonnage was limited.

Succbtf “j * vision requires that no contracted 1 gain more than 10 per cent * his risk and investment; but «!* ment of such a rule is not as It sounds. It will be recalled * titere were “cost-plus” contracts I | durmg the World war constrccfc and it also is a matter of w lj ' knowledge that the government pa dearly as a result The contract I were willing to pay any kind of and hire any number of workers Ihit could get, because when the costs vJ totaled, they simply added their 10 w cent, and collected. From some of the letters I have re celved from readers. I gather that ta I felt I was a bit jingoistic a few wem I ago when I predicted that there Ii war brewing and that it is likely ti I engulf some parts of the world bcfon the end of this year. I was reporfin; at. that time just what authorities It Washington knew of world condiiioni and signs they could read. While our own congress was in- thorizing construction of a treaty &e navy, consider the developments list same week abroad. They includettln French chamber of deputies naval mittee approved a project for constne tion of a 26,000-ton man-of-war. to be I sister ship of the gigantic Dunkerque that is now being built. It also ordered construction of two new submariia I and a destroyer. The British ad miralty presented 19:14 estimates for four more cruisers and twenty other ships, and an increase in naval person nel of 2,000 men. These addition will cost roughly $282,000,000. In addition to these moves by tie British and the French, the Italian , took quick cognizance of the action ol their rivals, the French. While it wn not officially communicated to Washing ton, my understanding is that the Ital ians are making plans to build a 25,- OOO-ton battleship. This, of course would offset the new Dunkerque that the Paris government will commission soon. Over in Japan, war plans go M apace. And Japan is making fctu at Russia. For example, the Japanw | war ministry sent a note to Russia tin other day, telling the Soviets, In eSert to stay on their own side of the Intte national border. It seems the So* planes had been doing a little HjW over Manchukuo, the new state set q by Japan out of territory taken fra" China, and the Japanese apparent* didn’t want the Russians pla-iug ■ their back yard. • • • Now, concerning General JohnM'1 demands on industry, it certain? be said that Bi Johnson’s theme song, as W passed the bat, Warning say of the moritt was burdened *14 a threat He did come downoff® high horse longenoughtosay we not succeed without public snW* That was quite a condescension general.
