IN ADVANCE - $ 50 It is only three weeks until Christ mas. Time to begin your Christ mas shopping. You can save mon ey by trading with the merchants who advertise in The Record. . Barrowiug money to buy- things We don’t need has always seemed to be foolish, hut yet our govern ment is doing.this very thing every day. Here’s hoping-that the day will soon come when this needless spending can be eliminated. It seems that the colored folks in Memphis met a few days ago and decided that they would join the democratic party. Well, that’s good. Most of them in Wake coun ty have been voting the democratic ticket for these mauy years. Our democratic friends in Davie remain in a dazed condition. They haven’t yet recovered from the shock they'received on the 6ib day of November when even Mocks ville township cast more Republi-. can votes than was ever cast -here before. Senator Bofah might unearth some startling facts in regard to ex penditure of Federal Aid money if be would visit the fair southland. When any man says there is no politics used in the expenditure of these millions—then he just don’t know what he is talking about. Mills and factories throughout the country are running on short time, and many merchants declare that business is not as good as it was a year ago Tobacco and cot ton prices are higher than a year ago, but everything the grower has to buy, has advanced from ten to a hundred per cent. We don’t know bow the farm ers throughout the South feel about the Bankbead cotton hill, but from ..what some of the Davle farmers say, we believe this county will vote against the bill. -The Record is not advising the farmers on this question. Some of our Tural friends believe it a good thing, while others think it has hurt the small farmer badly. _ The voters in Alexander and Watauga counties seem -to think there were too many irregularities in the voting in the recent election. They are asking that the "vote fot county candidates be recanvassed.IWith the election machinery in the hands of. the democrats something • must be radically wrong when the boys can’t trust each other.

Re-Organization Of Re lief Forces Announced. ■ Statesville Record Certain changes involving the or gamzation of the relief adminis tration in the state have been an nounced at Raleigh. -These changes will probably throw a wider respon sibility on the shoulders of the re lief administrator m tbis county. Under the new plan of organiza tion the 1 0 4 administrative units in North Carolina will be reduced .to 3 3 . Iredell, Alexander and Davie counties have been combined, with thg administrator’s office located in Statesville. - Each county in the district will have.a-branch office, which will be staffed with necessary case workers for home visitation and proper supervision of families. In linking Iredell, Alexander- and Davie, two counties with, com paratively .small - relief- loads have been tied in with another with Iar-. ger needs, and also because Iredell’s i practically m-the center of the two, it was plausible that this county should be given the administration office. . The consolidation which is in effect over the nation, will work in a material saving in the costs of administering, relief, although it will eliminate many workers.

Three days of genuine labor around the ranch followed. But on the fourth dny. Herrick approached Jim. “Wall, I want you to go to Grand Junction tomorrow after my sister," he said. “Take the cowboy Barnes with you. His home is in Grand Junction. Have him hitch the black team to the buckboard and start early.” Boss, I reckon I’ll go along with Wall,” Bays said, coolly. Hays, I did not ask your services,” returned Herrick. “You are needed here.” His tone as much as his words settled-the matter. Jim purposely delayed his hour of quitting, in order to avoid Hays. After supper Hays lighted his pipe Then, without facing Jim, he said. “Jim, had the boss mentioned this here trip before?" “No. I was as surprised as you.” "Wal, suppose you make some ex cuse an’ let-me go instead?" “But Herrick won’t like that, Hays,’’ protested Jim. “He turned down your proposal cold.” “Shore. He did. D—n funny, I take thet, too. But If you wouldn't or couldn’t go. I’d be next choice.” “Hays, you. surprise me. Here you. are on the eve of a big deal—the big gest of your life. And you risk anger ing Herrick at this stage.” Hays puffed his pipe. He was beaten. “Wal,” he said, finally, “I reckon mebbe you’re right, Jim. Only it didn’t seem so.” By sunrise next day Jim Wall was on his way to Grand Junction. Young Barnes, the cowboy, had his hands full with the spirited team. Presently Jim’s ever-watchful eyes caught dust far ahead, and dots. of. rid-, ers getting off the road into the cedar thickets. They would be Smoky’s out fit, JIm calculated, and gave, them credit for seeing the buckboard first They did not appear again, and Jim knew they were hiding on their way back to Star ranch. At four o’clock they drove In to Grand Junction, which was consid erably larger apd busier than Green River. “Barnes, here we are,” said Jim. “This Is a metropolis, compared to Green River.” “Fust I’ve been home fer long,” re joined Barnes. “I’ll take care of the team at my paw’B.” Barnes drove off down the road and Jim leisurely entered the lodging house, which, it turned out, was run by a buxom woman, who made herself agreeable. She was loquacious, and very shortlySTim gained the surpris ing Information that no cattle herds had passed through Grand Junction this week. After supper Jlm turned in. Awakening early he got up and leisurely shaved and dressed, paying more than usual attention to his ap* pearance. He was there to escort an English girl fifty miles across the wilderness to Star ranch. One thing he was sure of, and that was that it would be vastly better for Mlss Her rick than If Hank Hays had been sent Suddenly this fact struck Jim as singular. Was he any better than Hank Hays? After, breakfast he went out and found a boy to shine his high-top, boots and brush his dark, worn suit and his black sombrero. Presently, then, he encountered Barnes. “Howdy, boy. Did you have a nice time home?” “Gee, I did,” grinned the cowboy. “You sure look bright this morning. “Wal you look kinda spick.an’ span yourself, Jim,” drawled Barnes. “Funny how the ldear of a gurl gets a feller. “Funny? You mean terrible, my friend. A woman Is as terrible as an army approaching with banners ” ••Gosh, who’d ever dreamed you had inside a Bible?” exclaimed the ■+I>v■m cowboy. ,•It’s funny, though, how I happened to remember th at Now, Barnes, Usten This Miss Herrick might take me for an honest, decent fellow like you. But if I let that pass I’d be sailing °ndcr false colors. I don’t do that And S I can’t very well tell her myself you “ "•Ten te r \what?” queried Barnes, with a puzzled grin. _ “Ton know. . • • The kind of a gnrt^of like you myself.

The women onlookers, Jim observed, rather hung In the background. The four-horse stage came rolling UP In a cloud of dust. The driver, a fizzled old frontiersman, brought it to a stop with a fine flourish, and bawled out: “Grand Junction! Half hour fer lunch.” There were six passengers, two of them feminine. The. last to leave the stage was a tall, veiled young woman, her lithe and erect figure encased in a long linen coat She carried a small satchel. Expectantly she looked around. Jim stepped before her, baring his head. “Are you Miss Herrick?” “Oh !—Yes,” she exclaimed In relief. Your brother sent us to meet you,” went on Jim, indicating Barnes, who stood to one side. “He did not come!” The full, rich voice, with Its foreign intonation, struck pleasantly upon Jim’s ear. “No. There’s much work at Star ranch. But it’s perfectly all right Miss Herrick. We will drive you safe ly over before dark.” Jim could not see clearly through the tan veil, but he discerned well enough that big eyes studied him. “Didn’t he send a letter or anything? How am I to know you men are em ployed by my brother!” ‘Tm afraid you’ll have to take my word,” replied Jim, gravely. “But, Barnes, here, can prove his Identity. He lives In Grand Junction, and of course there are responsible people who will vouch for him.” “Miss, the boss did send word,” spoke up Barnes, touching his hat, and stepping closer he added In lower tone: “He told me last night you was to fetch what come by Wells-Fargo.” "Then It Is all right,” she replied, heartily relieved. “My luggage Is In side, on top and tied on behind. The name is on every piece. Helen Her rick.” ‘Tl! attend to the baggage, Miss Her rick,” rejoined Jim. “Meanwhile Barnes will show you-where to eat: It might rest you to walk a little. We have an eight-hour drive.” “Thank you. I’ve been riding ‘Stead ily for two weeks and Tm stiff.” Whereupon Jim set about collecting the pieces of baggage marked “Her rick." It appeared that the stage had been loaded down with them. Nine teen In all! Manifestly Mlss Herrick had come to stay. To find room for all of them In the buckboard was going to be a task. He set about this method ically, his mind at once busy and ab sent By packing carefully under the seats and. on them, too, Jim got the bags all In. He went to the store and bought rope to tie some of them on securely. ' “Wonder what she, looks like,” he thought. He had felt vague ly uncomfortable when she looked him over through that veil. His task com pleted, Jim stood beside the restless horses, waiting. And It seemed he was waiting for he knew not what. Presently Barnes returned, wearing an excited grin. His eyes were Im portant. "Jim, I fixed It I shore gave her an earful.” he said. “Did you? Much obliged, cowboy.” “She took off thet coat an’ veil. Lordy! Utah never seen the likes of her. Bed Ups, pink cheeks, hair like gold, an’ eyes like violets! Jim, for a mlnnit I went plumb back on my gurl I—But shucks, thet’s crazy. She asked me to set at table. I did. She’s just as nice an’ free as Herrick. It was while we was eatin’ thet I had the chanst to tell her about the notorious Jim Wall. Mebbe I didn’t spread It on. An’ she looked—gee, such eyes! She said, ‘So BernIe Herrick sent a des perado to be my escort? Howperfect-. Iy rlppln’!’—Honest, Jim, thet’s what she said. So I shet up pronto. . . . When I Jest come away she said she’d walk a little In the orchard an’ after goto’ Into the Wells-Fargo office she’d be ready.” “Have you double-crossed me? queried Jim, suspicious of this boy. “You were to make me out low-down.” ' “Jim, honest to. Gawd, if thet gurl ain’t scared to death ; of you she’s a new one on me,” declared Barnes. But there was fun and evasion In his keen, hazel eyes. Somehow he had failed to follow instructions. “I’ll go In-the-Chink’s here and get a bite to eat You watch the horses.” Upon his return Jlm espied Mlss Herrick emerging from the yard of Mrs. Bowe’s lodging house. She car* ried the linen coat oa her arm, ajd- without It did not appear so tall. She had a wonderful steg, a free, swinging, graceful stride, expressive of healfli and vitality. She did not look slender, as In the long ulster,-but superb, broad of shoulder. She wore a half-length c o a t over her brown dress. It h ada collar of dark fur which presented vivid contrast to her exquisite com plexion. The veil was tucked back and now permitted sight of a wave of shin- C ? golden hair. At a little distoce her eyes looked like great,, dark holes set Iri white; But as she approached Jlm saw that they were viofct In warm, beautiful, feariess.^ - to Ba ooxTurasn 'IMPROVED— U UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SONDAy IcHooL Lesson (By REV.

'GOLDEN TEXT—Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.—IX Timothy 2:15.PKIMART TOPIC—Jesus Our Teacher. . .. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus the Great Teacher.• INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- 1O—Learning From the Master Teacher.TOTJNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Teaching Church. v It seems that the lesson committee decided upon a title and then sought texts to fit It It Is very difficult If not Impossible, to make the texts fit the title. Regardless of the strained effort required to make this adjust ment, two vitally practical Scripture passages are before us from which to set forth vital truths. The follow ing pr/tctical lesson plan Is suggested. I. Jesus the Master Teacher (Matt 7:24-29). 1. His method of teaching (vv. 24- 27). In his application of the so-called Sermon on the Mount Jesus used a most striking simile, namely, the two foundations. .'a. The house built on a rock (w. 24-25). This house endured the storms and flood because of its secure and abiding foundation. The. wise builder will see to it that a safe foun dation Is provided before he proceeds to erect his house. b. The house built on the sand (w. 26-27). This house collapsed with the impact of the storms and flood because its foundation was Insecure. The fool ish builder is. the man who proceeds to build bis house without consideration of the importance of the foundation. By Iiousei In this figure Is doubtless meant human life and character. ' And by rock is meant the teachings of Christ EJvery man is building a house. The fact of building is true of every human being. The supreme difference is not in the men who build or the ma terial used in the building, but in the foundatioq upon which they build. The foundation determines everything so far as man’s destiny is concerned. A time of testing will surely come to ev ery life. The matter of Importance is as to whether we. are building upon the foundation which will withstand the coming storms and flood. The one who builds upon the words of Jesus ChTist is eternally secure. 2. The impression made (vv. 28-29). The people were astonished. The con tent of Christ’s teaching as well as his manner of teaching was in contrast with that of the scribes. The teach ing of the-scribes consisted in the rep etition of the words of others, while Christ’s teaching was In his own words. The Christian teacher should give forth a positive and certain message because he sets forth the inerrant and eternal words of Christ the living God. II. Apollos the Teacher Who Needed to Be Taught (Acts 18:24-28). Apollos is a striking example of many Christian leaders today. Many are gifted, energetic, and highly trained, and yet are. Ignorant of the real Christian message and Pentecostal grace. 1. Who he was (v. 24). He was an Alexandrian Jew, highly cultured, carefully instructed in the Old Testa ment. Scriptures, energetic and elo quent He was a believer In Jesus Christ, even familiar with his life and teaching. 2, What he lacked (v. 25). He was only a disciple of John the Baptist. He was therefore ignorant of the meaning of -Christ’s death, resurrec tion, ascension, and the gift of the Spirit as outpoured at . Pentecost There are striking parallels to this to day in the Christian church. -We have many good: men -eloquent and highly cultured who know only “the baptism of John.” They Insist upon the In tegrity of men In public life, social Justice, and even call upon men to re pent of their sins, but they seem to know nothing of the meaning of the death of Christ the necessity of the new birth by the Spirit, and the Pen tecostal gift They are pleading for social justice and .a higher standard of ethics, seemingly not knowing that these are by-products of the gospel and, are meaningless and Impossible with out. the proclamation- of the gospel of Christ which centers In the person and work of the divine Saviour. ■3. Who instructed Apollos (v. 26). iPrisciila and AquiIa1 humble Christian tent-makers, were instrumental in showing the great preacher his ignor ance'and leading him Into the truth. 4. Result of his ministry (w. 27-28). He 'was provided with credentials and had a fruitful ministry. He mightily convinced the Jews showing that Jesus was the Messiah.

Nevertheless, I don’t propose to encourage the nerve ^hey show In expressing them.” Encouragement At an English theater they were playing‘‘The Forty Thieves,” and as the company numbered only., eight, the entry of the robbers into the cave was achieved by their passing out at theTiack of the stage and en tering again at the front Unfortunately one of the robbers walked with a limp, and when he had entered five times a voice from the.gallery cried: “Stick it, Hoppy; last lap!” Disappointment “So you are going home," said the kindly stranger to the wanderer. “I suppose they will kill the fatted calf for you?” . “Yes, that’s the worst of It,” re plied the wanderer sourly; “I am on a diet and can’t eat any m eat”— Pathfinder Magazine.

BURGESS PETER LISTENS FOR SOMETHING THE leaves of the trees turned yel low and red and brown. They be gan to drop, a few at first, and more and more every day, until all but the spruce trees and the pine trees and the hemlock trees and the fir trees and the cedar trees were bare. The fur of Pe ter’s coat was growing thicker. The grass of the Green Meadows had turned brown. AU these things were signs which Peter knew well. They meant that rough Brother North Wind and Jack Frost were od their way down from the Far North to stay. Peter spent a great deal of time In the dear Old Brier Patch just sitting still and listening. He didn’t know what be was listening for. It just seemed to him that there was some thing he ought to hear at this time of year, and so he sat listening and list ening and wondering what he was list ening for. Then late one afternoon there came floating down to him from high up In the sky, faintly at first, but growing louder, a sound unlike any Peter had heard all the long summer through. The sound was of many voices mingled. “Honk! Honk! Honk! Ka-honk, honk, honk, ka-honk!” they cried. Peter gave a little jump. “That’s what I’ve been listening for,” he thought. “Honker the Goose and his friends are coming I Oh, I do hope they will stop where I can pay them a call.” He hopped out to the edge of the dear Old Brier Patch that he might see V Sa™ 3 Flock of Birds Moving Steadily From the Direction of the Far North. better, and looked up in the sky.

Suddenly Honker turned and headed In the direction of the Big River. Then he began to slant down, his flock fol lowing him. Presently they disap peared behind the trees along the bank of the Big River. Peter gave a happy sigh. “They are going to spend the night there,” thought he. “When the moon comes up I will run over there, for then they will come ashore, and I know just where. Now that they’ve arrived I know that winter is not far away. Honker’s voice is as sure a sign of the coming of wihter as is Winsome Bluebird’s that Spring will soon be here.” ©, T. W.

SOME TESTED GOOD THINGS T HERE is an old saying that “an apple a day keeps the doctor away,” and an onion a day keeps everybody away. A good time to indulge In the odoriferous bulb is at a time when you’ will not annoy others. Onions are such wholesome vegetables that they should be served at least twice a week in some form during the entire winter. An onion sirup cannot be ex- ceUed for a cough, and a poultice of chopped raw onion, mixed with rye flour with a bit of vinegar to moisten, makes a remedy for any lung trouble. Not pleasant, but very effective. Lemon Pudding. Mix one cupful of flour, two egg yolks well beaten, one lemon, juice and rind, one teaspoonful of melted butter, and ODe cupful of milk. When well blended fold In the well-beaten whites of the eggs and bake In a shal low baking dish set into hot water. Bake three minutes. Serve hot or' cold. Baked Stuffed Onions.

PROBE BUTLER TALE OF A FASCIST PLOT Congressmen Interested In Fimtastic Story. -T . . . .New York.—A thorough investiga tion of fascist activities in the United States was promised as result of al leged statements by MaJ- Gen. Smedley D. Butler that he had been asked by a group of wealthy New Yorkers to lead a right wing movement designed to set up a dictatorship In Washing ton. ' Enough evidence of fascist activi ties has been uncovered, members of the congressional committee investi gating the alleged subversive move ments, said, to justify a thorough probe. Following publication of a story In a New York newspaper quoting-rBuHer as saying he had been asked to head an American fascist movement the congressional committee met In ex ecutive session and questioned a num ber of witnesses including Butler and Paul Comly French, the reporter who wrote the Butler story.. After thie session Representative John N.. McCormick of Massachusetts, chairman of the committee, said addi tional'witnesses will be called. Butler-was the first witness called before the committee. His testimony was secret but It was reported he out lined the proposal made to-him by the New York capitalists who allegedly were attempting organization of a fascist march on Washington some thing along lines of Benito Mussollnl’B march on Rome which ended in the Italian fascist dictatorship. The names of Grayson Mallet-Pre- vost Murphy, financier, and Robert Sterling Clark, wealthy Wall Street broker, figured prominently through out the story with the inference they would raise $3,000,000 or more to start the fascist, organization. Murphy described the whole ,story as “a damned lie.” Clark is in Paris and admitted that he had “strongly urged” Butler “to use his Influence In favor of sound money against In- flaHon,” but he flatly denied allega tions that he had sponsored an Amer ican fascist movement . Threatening to take action against General Butler “for any libels which may have been committed,” Clark ex pressed complete mystification concern ing the general’s charges that a fascist coup was plotted. In his story French named Gerald P. MacGuire1 connected with the brok erage house of Grayson M.-P. Murphy and Company as the man who asked-,Butler to organize. 500,000 war veterans into a fascist army. MacGuire, who described himself as a bond sales man, said the charges werer absurd. “What is all this; a publicity stunt?” he 'asked, asserting he had not the slightest idea why he had been sub poenaed by the committee.

P I C K A R D © by Western Newspaper Union. will be worked out by a committee of three arbiters, with the union recog nized as the bargaining agent for the employees. Gen. Smedley D. Butler SOBER minded American citizens find it difficult to take seriously, the fantastic story that Maj. Gen. Smedley D. Butler told to the con gressional committee investigating un-Amer ican activities. This retired officer of ma rines charges that there is a plot, en gineered by W a ll street men, to seize the government of the United States and set up a Fascist dictator ship, and the chairman of the committee, Rep resentative John W. McCormack of New York, considered the tale of enough im portance to warrant the calling of wit nesses to prove or disprove it General Butler made Iiis story public through the columns of the New York Evening Post, as the proceedings of the com mittee are conducted in private. If Butler is to be believed, he was approached by Gerald P. MacGuire, bond salesman in the stock exchange firm of Grayson M. P. Murphy and Company, and urged to accept the lead ership of a soldier organization of half a million men “which would assem ble—probably a year from now—In Washington, and that within a few days it could take over . the functions of the government.” MacGuire, accord ing to the general, thought the over turn of the government might be ac complished peacefully and suggested that “we might even go along with Roosevelt and do with him what Mus- soliDl did with the king of Italy.” Butler's story continued: “He told me he believed that at least half of the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars would fol low me. “MacGuire explained to me that they had two other candidates for the posi tion of ‘Man on the White Horse.' He said that if I did not accept an offer would be made to Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur, chief of staff of the United States army, and that the third choice would be Hanford MacNider, former commander of the American Legion. “So far as I know, neither General MacArthur nor MacNider has been ap proached. Their names were merely mentioned as ‘alternates.’” - The general said he was offered con siderable sums “for expenses” which he - did not accept He said. MacGuire In timated that among the backers of the plan were Mr. Murphy and Col. Bobert S. Clark, a wealthy New Yorker with offices in the Stock Exchange build ing ; and he added that later Colonel Clark offered him money to go to the American Legion convention in Chi cago last year and make a speech for retention of the gold standard, which speech MacGuire had previously given Butler. Clark, at present in France, admit ted he had asked Butler “to use his influence In favor of sonnd money and against inflation," but strongly denied that he had sponsored a Fascist move ment He declared he would take ac tion for libel against any person ac cusing him in such a connection. Murphy and other Wall street men said the story was absolutely false and unutterably ridiculous, and Mac- Gnire, after being heard by the Mc Cormack committee, said: “It’s a Joke —a publicity stunt I know nothing about it. The matter is made, out of whole doth. I deny the story complete ly.” C O FAR as the great steel Industry is concerned, it appears that the industrial truce asked by President Roosevelt cannot be arranged, and the prospect of a strike of the steel work ers is growing. In behalf of the United States Steel corporation, a proposal was made to the American Federation of Labor that recognition of that organization would be granted, but that no contract would be made. This proposal, it was said, would be agreed to by 85 per cent of the steel industry.. The labor spokesmen;'led by William Gr^en, president ’of ^he A. F of L., re jected the tender on the ground that It was hedged about in such a way to permit collective bargaining with mi nority groups or company unions, and that the employers were still unwilling to accept the principle of majority rule as set forth'In the national labor re lations board’s decision in the Houde case. ^ If a rupture comes the Federation of Labor may find the federal govern ment rather unsympathetic; Hjv Green’s Influence in the White House has been waning noticeably and he has Ifad no personal contacts with the. President for some £ime. . t . —. New Yorkers with offices in sky scrapers were gladdened by the news that a threatened strike of elevator operators had been averted and an agreement, drafted by Mayor La Guardla’s board of arbitration, had been signed by representkti’yes JoI :the real estate interests aid 'the union. The union. wlthdrew its. demand $>r _ closed shop; and standards of wages and hours in various types of buildings BY ORDER of the national labor re lations board there will be held soon a great workers’ election which will determine whether organized labor shall dominate the country’s rubber in dustry. The board decreed that the Fire stone Tire and Rubber company and the B. F. Goodrich company of Akron, Ohio, must allow their employees to ballot on the question of whether they want a company union or an American Federation of Labor union to represent them in collective bargaining under the NRA. Twenty-one thousand workers, the largest number ever polled by the labor board on- an NRiA- question, will par ticipate in the election. In addition another 15,000 workers of the Good year Rubber company may ballot on the same question. The Goodyear an gle of the case has not yet been passed upon by the board. , Both the Firestone ' and Goodrich companies have opposed the elections now ordered, maintaining that condi tions in their plants are satisfactory and that electioneering In rival unions would only disturb the peace among the workers. D o n a ld r . r ic h b e r g , executive director of the national emergency council and now'perhaps the Presi dent’s chief adviser, addressing the As sociated Grocers of America at their, convention in New York, proposed the creation of a new federal body, com bining functions of the NRA and the federal trade commission, to define and regulate concerted trade action In the “twilight zone” under antitrust laws. Discussing the program for perma nent NRA legislation, he reiterated his opposition to control of prices and pro duction. He said the fixing of mini mum ^wages 'and -maximum hours>had demonstrated its soundness for elimi nating the worst forms of unfair com petition In treatment of employees, and that admittedly dishonest business prac tices should be proscribed. ' PHILADELPHIA lawyers are tradl- tlonaliy supposed to. be able to unravel the worst of tangles, so Presi dent Roosevelt has picked one to be chairman of thq na tional labor relations board. He is Francis Biddle, of the famous family of that name, and he succeeds Lloyd Garrison, who re-- tired from the chair manship to resume his duties as dean of the law school of the Uni versity of Wisconsin. Francis Biddle has been engage^ In law practice as a member of the Phila delphia firm of Barnes, Biddle, and Meyers. He Served from 1922 to 1920 as assistant district attorney* for the eastern district of Pennsylvania. In his new post his task will be the set-' tlement of labor disputes arising out of the recovery act, especially those involving collective bargaining. Francis Biddle FRANCE is worried by the admitted fact that Germany has developed a military air fleet of considerable size, composed of modern pursuit and bomb ing planes, and Gen. Victor Denain, French minister of air, estimates that by January the reich will have from' 1,000 to 1,100 of these machines, swift er arid better than those possessed by France. Consequently he has asked the chamber of deputies for about $230,- 000,000 to finance a program for re covering the ground lost by French aviation. The task Is already under way, $32,500,000 having been spent out of an appropriation for modernization. HUGH It. WILSON, American am bassador to Switzerland, laid be fore the disarmament conference In Geneva a proposal by the United States for. international control of arms traffic'and full publicity to pre vent secret arming of nations. The proposal was well received by most of the delegates, and it will be studied by committees in January^ By the American plan each govern ment would license Its manufacturers of munitions for five year periods. No reserve stocks would be allowed and manufacturers would be required to present bona fide orders before receiv ing a license. Details of war vessels built for other nations would have to be reported. Reports of licenses and orders would be turned over to a cen tral committee'at Geneva and: made a matter of public record. A perma nent commission,' including a mem ber from' each signatory nation, would be empowered to investigate transac tions.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT is revel ing in baths and rest at Warm Springs, Ga., but he is not neglecting the nation’s business, keeping In close touch with Washington and receiving many official visitors. At his first press conference there he announced with glad smiles that- he would again “lend his birthday,” January 80, to the na tional committee that arranges birth day balls all over the country for the benefit of Infantile paralysis sufferers. COMPTROLLER GENERAL J. R. M’CARL has thrown a monkey- wrench into part of the machinery of Relief Administrator Harry L. Hop kins. Turning down a check from Hop kins to the officials of the District of Columbia which was to have- started work on a housing development, Mr. McCarl held that the federal emergen cy relief act, providing for the grant ing of funds for various relief , pur poses, could not apply to the acquisi tion of real estate and the construc tion of homes. This type of activity, he said, would be of a permanent and not an emergency nature, and the act was adopted to meet emergencies. The FERA already has under way a program of “rehabilitating” 80,000 farm families In homes and on land to be sold to them by the government MORE and more it becomes evident that President Roosevelt intends to pursue a middle of the road policy inZbis efforts for national recovery, and that In the over whelmingly Democrat ic next congress, there' will be no one faction strong enough to die-' tate to him. The Chief E x e c u tiv e and the business leaders of the country are grad ually coming together, and if and when they reach an accord on methods it will be Silas Strawn f0Un(j that a good many of the more radical ideas of the brain trusters .wlll have been discard ed. The best minds In Industry and finance--are no longer. standing back and merely criticizing. They are tak ing an active part in planning for the future welfare of the nation. Here with are summarized some of the- im portant new developments In this di rection: President Henry L' Harriman of the United States Chamber of Commerce, In pursuance of a resolution adopted by the board of directors, has appoint ed a committee of six riien, headed by Silas Strawn of Chicago, to co-operate with other business and agricultural associations In drafting plana for the recovery of business. The board of the chamber endorsed the' continuation of relief and housing, but ,,signified that business is still opposed to. the unbal anced budget, further reduction of working., hours as embodied In the movement for a 30-hour week, new and unprecedented outlays for public works, continuance of the NRA, the doctrine of majority rule In collective bargaining, and unemployment insur ance. Through, the National Association of Manufacturers, Invitations were sent" to every manufacturer. In the United States to attend a national Industrial conference In New York on December 5 to draft “constructive recommenda tions” for presentation to President Roosevelt. In a petition addressed to the Presi dent and congfess the National Econ omy league has presented a definite program for balancing the federal bud get in the. coming fiscal year, holding that only by balancing the budget can sustained national recovery be accom plished. The petition proposes heavy' 'reductions in government expenditures and additional taxes totaling $935,000,- 000. N OT so pleasing to the industrialists were the two speeches the-Presi dent delivered during his inspection of the Tennessee valley project, for if, his predictions are borne out, his “revolu tion” will bring about the death of pri vate enterprise In the power industry. At Tupelo, Miss., he declared himself flatly for public ownership of public utilities, saying: “What you are do-,. Ing here is going t» be copied in every! state In ..the UBlo.n before we are' through” ; the allusion being to the fact that Tupelo has contracted for TVA power. In Birmingham the President said: “I am aware that a few of your citizen ry are leaving no stone unturned to block and harass and delay this great national program. I am confident, however, that these obstructionists, few In number in comparison with the whole population, do not reflect the views of the overwhelming majority.." “I know, too, that the Overwhe1Im- Ing majority of your business men, big and lfttle, .are in hearty accord ;.wifli; the great undertaking of regional plan ning now being carried forward.” FORTY-FIVE new bills were pushed through .tlie Louisiana legislature In five days with Senator Huey Long on the rostrum telling the legislators just what to do, but seldom-stopping to tell them' why. The “Klngfish” says he now is in position to make the state a Utopia, or rather, In his own words, ' “the kind of state nobody has dreamed of.” . It ip the general, belief that he hopes his .“share the wealth” program will ultimately land him. In the White House,.;' '■ The-, senator's most ambitious legis lation is the statute proclaiming a two- year moratorium, for harassed debtors.. Another bill sets up a civil. service commission, composed of state admin-' istratioh leaders, with power to re-" move police and fire chiefs: That will give Long; contrpl of virtually all nro- Dicijpal PQUcemen and - flremeniV ‘ Long* said the bill was intended to take them “out of politics.’* National Topics Iiiterpreted by WilHam Bruckaft Washington.—Administration plans and policies appear to be ,undergoing a shaking down proc- Shake-Up ess. Safely passing Pnlieies the electio n s andin FoUCies wIth no n e ed to make moves solely to please particu lar segments of voters the President appears to have started getting rid of duplication in the various alphabetical agencies of the government Further, many conservatives are taking some hope out of other "administrative ac tions lately and are willing to believe that the shake-up among the many emergency groups along with White House pronouncements may possibly indicate a slight return toward what they regard as sounder fundamentals. In a move held by many observers to’ indicate an attempt by the Pres ident to eliminate some waste the President has brought under one su pervisory control all of the agencies lending government money. .It may be surprising to know that there are ten important federal offices engaged In loaning money. Tliey have been operating largely on their own pro grams. No attempt has been made heretofore to co-ordinate their efforts. The result has been conflicting policies and undoubtedly waste In results. The !President now proposes that this shall end. He has named the com mittee for the defined purpose of es tablishing uniform policy respecting government loans and has declared with emphasis that the duplication must be eliminated. Some leaders In and out of the gov ernment construed this action as in dicating a ,conviction by the Presi dent that there were-too many-agen cies floating around doing odd jobs without restraint Others believed that Mr. Roosevelt was making an hon est effort to bring some semblance of order out of chaos In the hope that eventually expenses can be reduced thereby. In support • of this view was the ac tion taken by the Home Owners’ Loan corporation which has; cut off further loaning on homes. In announcing its action the home loan board said it be lieved government aid In this direc tion was no longer necessary, thus in- ferentially at least saying that some recovery had taken place. The home loan agency is among those placed under cabinet committee control. It will begin immediately to shrink its organization, turning, loose eventually a total of 28,000 workers. The Reconstruction Finance corpor ation, another one of the groups which will be guided by cabinet committee policy hereafter,’ has announced it will not seek additional funds from the forthcoming session of congress. Bor rowers who have been using that- agency will "be accommodated further, of course, in accordance with the terms of their obligations but the whole tendency will be to eut down on new loans. And so it is for the first time In the current administration we are witness^ Ing a shrinkage, rather than an expan*, sion, In governmental facilities set up as a part of the recovery program of the New Dealers. * * * Along with the establishment of the loan policy committee, there came an order from the treas-May Export ury, b e a r in g Mr. Currency Roosevelt’s approval, which oince again al lows unrestricted exports of currency, but not gol8 or silver metal. Hereto fore It has been necessary for private business to obtain a specific license from1 the treasury before it could ship currency abroad In settlement of ob ligations. This move is expected to have far-reaching consequences because it lifts from business, one of those an noying red tape'procedures to which business always objects and a kind of_ transaction that has never crept Into private business In any way. Gold and silver, both having been nationalized under the New Deal, must stay In this country. Gold must stay In the coffers of the treasury. Never theless, from many sources I hear fa vorable comment on the relaxation of the restrictions, on movement of cur rency because it is generally believed the action will have a psychological benefit Many persons will feel that if the -government at -Washington .is willing to permit shipment of current cy abroad, there is no reason to fear embaiTassIng- Situations as a matter of dealing In currency. Of course, ob viously,-the confidence hitherto repos ing In our dollar by foreigners cannot be fully restored as long as gold can not be shipped but the present change admittedly improves the situation. It should be explained that the treasury still keeps Its fingers on the currency movement; and that It has the author ity, to'slajp on an embargo again when ever it sees fit This appears to be unlikely, however, as long as Interna tional trade re,tains anything like Its present stability. Indeed, experts 'W clare that greater stability in, Interna- tlonal trade ought to be one of the re sults and the treasury is obviously looking for that end- to be served.' In some quarters the lifting of the ban on currency exports was accept ed as meaning that Mr. Roosevelt is ntjt. entertaining any thought of fur-’ ther devaluation of tie currency.' - He may have to give .consideration to that proposition after congress comes'back of because there are half a hundred sen ators and . representatives who are avidly pursuing the inflation phantom. They think this will solye the coun try’s economic problems and they can be counted on to bear down w ith,their ideas, when the -forum of congress again Is opened to them. \ Whatever these men may do, It is pointed out now, Mr. Roosevelt would be only complicating his own problems by allowing free Interchange of cur rency at this time if he had any thought In mind of changing the dol lar value In the not too distant future. * • ■ * With the time only a month away for selection by the Democrats of their tandldate for speak- Speakership er of the house—se- Ftght lection that means ■ election—the speak ership fight Is attracting much atten tion. Heat is being shown and ene mies are being created In every direc tion. There are at least a'dozen mem bers of the house who figure or hope that the Democratic caucus to be held late In December will pick their name for one of the honor post.s, speaker,, majority floor, leader or chair man of the rules committee. A t the moment one can deal only with possi bilities,'for the stage of probabilities Is yet In the distance. Although, as I said, the fight Is wide open there are certain straws that tend to show the way the wind la blowing. T here' are certain back grounds and conditions as well that nrast be accepted as having a mean ing. For example, Representative Byrnes of Tennessee, -the Democratic leader, while the late Mr. Rainey was speak er, normally would' be . expected to be chosen as speaker. But Mr. Byrnes ia not sure. In fact, there are many ob servers who declare'that the odds -are against him. For instance, he was hot invited aboard the President’s special train to make the recent trip to H ir- rodsburg, Ky. There is a row brewing between th« North and the South. Northern Dem ocrats resent what they regard aa southern domination of the house. Consequently, some of the harmoi Iz- ers are attempting to effect a d sal whereby the speakership will go to the South and the post of majority leader^ be filled by a northern Demo crat. In this , combination the names Representatives Rayburn of T eias and McCormack of Massachusetts, Ig- ure most prominently. However, tiis arrangement has vulnerable spots )e- cause there are many other southern Democrats, who feel they are entitled to consideration,' and they - may not be satisfied with such a CombihatiplD. On top of all this, is- a statement from White House quarters that the President will remain aloof. Mr. Roosevelt considers the speakership fight solely a house matter, but it must be added that the President’s pro nouncement has not deterred some of his satellites. A dozen or more New Dealers>- are active, and'some say t iat .they have agreed on .Mr. Rayburn tad Mr. McCormack. If that be true I Ir. Roosevelt is In a tough spot unless he wants to declare openly that he d>es not favor Mr. Rayburn and Mr. Mc Cormack. In which event he is ex pected to antagonize their support srs. * * * I The responsibility which the admin istration carries In having such cbm- j . plete control of gov- !

I The first harpoon which the Idaho senator has thrown was directed, at the relief policies pressed through and administered by professional reliever s. Mr. Borah says there is an enormot s amount of waste In connection with the relief activities. He - says theie are thousands af superfluous jobs b s-' ing maintained out of relief funds un der the guise of distributing tie money. He has called - attention E s well to the lack of co-ordination an a the apparent inability of the relit r heads to arrive at uniform bases f« r ministering, to the destitute. Havln s begun the fight well in advance of th * opening of congress Mr. Borah can b expected , to give it momentum fro: time to time so-that when it reachu the floors of congress it can be count ed on to be" more than a- puff ball. Of. course,1 the administration ha- fought to ward off just such attacks. as-Mr; BoraK has inaugurated, .by an nouncement Of employment plans and transfer of unemployed from relief r(}lls to work rolls. I reported to you several weeks ago that: Mr. RMsevelt -favored elimination of the dole - and the creation of work for which the t>reseiit unemployed" would be paid; Yet It Is being pointed out In quarters here that pursuit of such a plan as the President has In nilnd re- Snlres-an ,ImmengV; amount of study. Otherwise IfcIs Iiable to flop and If It goes off half-cocked, undoubtedly th* criticism will .be?more vigorous. . ©.

Jordan, “But the farmers generally heretofore have been finan cially unable to adopt sound and con servative methods in marketing the staple.

It is thrust on at tention not as something new but as something that should be kept in mind, before the mind's eye. For tbe ten months motor ve hides killed 2 8 . 4 0 0 and wounded 7 4 0 , 0 0 0 in the United States. The machines didn’t do all this execu tion and crippling of their own motion and voluntarily. They were mishandled by humans, in most cases at least. At the present rate it is estimated that the death roll for Jhe year will be 3 6,0 0 0 , which would be 3 , 0 0 0 more than the last highest year—1 9 3 1 —and the in crease over last year would be ap proximately 5 .0 0 0 . It need not be so many however. The 3 6 , 0 0 0 isn’t a goal to be reached. It could be materially rekuced in the month re maining, .when the harvest is expect ed to be large, :f the folks who de plore the record would quit deplor ing and take action—with a club if that is necessary to restrain. Two-three years ago much of the blame for wrecks was being laid on cars mechanically unfit, since few new cars were being bought and more old ones-used,^ Persons and. papers, instigated by automobile dealers, were-clamoring for unfit cars to be taken off the road. It is well to take notice that motor ve bicle wrecks went to new IowS in 1932-3, when most old machines were in use But come 1 9 3 4, with tbe enormous sales of new cars, and there is a tremendous, inc. ease in the number of wrecks A fact finding analysis of the wrecks would prob ably show that the new ^ars, geared to unreasonable and highly danger- peed, are the greatest con- dleJ f J as Set a new date Ca“ Ro riJ J |W°rld ~ I942; so 0al Plans f * d W'th our orlS1* 1Sast,tbe ous tf jbutors to the wrecks. -Excessive speed is reckless of itself.

I: isn’t the roads, nor the weather nor the dark. It is the reckless dare devil driving. Everybody knows the cause of the killings and cripplings and there should be a law—unwrit ten -against blaming them on causes that are least responsible. If folks wouid drive decent—and the worst o f th e m at least can be made to do better or quit if the law enforcement group had the will to do it—the re daction in tbe casualties would be a matter for commendation and ad miration —Greensboro News.

Vandenburg Roasts BossJim Farley. The double duty of Boss Jim Farley as post master general and chairman of the National Demo- ct atic Executive Commitiee was hit with a broadside by Senator Vanden- berg, Republican, of Michigan, who had returned to Wasbingtdn from Uis home where he was re elected in’ the^ecent voting. Vandenberg suggested Farley quit one of his “absolutely incom patible” jobs, said he possibly was violating the law by appealing for half a million dollars to pay off the DemocraticdeficitbyJanuary 1 , ana warned his “ Democratic frieuds” who are federal office holders that they a]so would ran afoul of the lawiftheycontributed “one penny” to that fund while Farley had charge of it. The Michigan senator made his criticism in an interview regarding Republican party’ reorganization and the part he expected to play in it in view of his liberal standing and his escape from the^ recent Demo cratic landslide. He refused to discuss what sotne called his prospects for the 1 9 3 6 presidential nomination. He con tended the Republican party, how. ever, was very far fiom dead. Proposing an adjournment of politics and a “virtual coaltion” government with a continuation of non-partisan consideration of all sound recovery measures, he added: '‘Since the President himself asks for this type of non-partisan con sideration —and.he’.s.euti.tled i0 have, it—the non-partisan rule ought to work both ways. “ But it can’t work both ways so long as the post master general of the United States and the operator of the clearing house thru which all. jobs are filled is run by the chair man of the Democratic national committee. 'Ttbecomesmore and more ob vious that Mr. Farley holds abso lutelt incompatible positions and it is no defense to say that the post- office department w is a political department under Republican ad ministrations because two wrongs don’t make a rtght. . “Furthermore, it certainly would be a paradox for the new deal to be defended on any precents quot ed from the old deal.” The Michigan senator said a "tangible example” of the “em barrassment and confusion that at-? taches to Farley’s joint service” was his recent appeal for $5 0 0 ,0 0 0 to pay off the party debt. He emphasized that the call went out from Farley and not from the national committee treasurer." He then cited section 2 0 8 of the crimi nal code declaring it unlawful for any office holder directly or indir ectly to solicit, receive, or be in any manner concerned with solicit ing-or receiving subscriptions or contributions for any political pur pose from any other government employe" Discussing Republican charges; the federal money had been used to influence voters, Vandenberg said, j. Austin Latimer, special assistant to the postmaster general “ show ed up in Detroit a week before the election and turned the 4 sod for a new parcel post building.for which plans had not-been drawn, and the whole first page. of__his -mimeo graphed speech was a straight out appeal for Democratic votes with the plain implication that was the only wav.-toftgebi the parcel ,post. building ” - “If they are willing ,.to .be-, that brazen it doesn’t take much ima gination to believe they would go further.” he added After denying that.the G. O. r. is "a dead party, as Farley indi cates,” Vandenberg- added ■ "We’ve had our political day Burke Cursed By Absentee Ballots. Mr. Editor:—What are we com- tng:to in Burke county?

F a r l e y ! One would not ordinarily look for poetry in anything -labeled “Office of the Postmaster General, Dept. Bull. 16538;” but that just goes to show how much one ordinarily miss es in this life; For beneath the se verely official exterior of this docu ment one discovers our Mr. Farley addressing a pastoral letter to his postmasters on the subject—could one have guessed it?, —of Christmas presents. And one can well under stand that Christmas presents, at just this moment, are a subject close to Mr. Farley’s heart. It is true that the bulletin begins with the fleeting recognition of a grim’truth: “Experience has proven that many parcels intended as Cnristmas gifts are not delivered before Christmas Day,” due to lots of things, includ ing delayed trains and causes “which the mailer cannot control." But what i 8 experiehc? Mr.. Farley sweeps on: , To the recipient, especially the young boy or girl, it may mean the cherished hope pf months blasted, disappointment and sorrow pervad ing a young life at Christmas time. As delayed remembrances fai!v to fulfil the spirit for which they are intended, the Post Office Depart ment, the public’s messenger of sympathy and love, will, deliver all parcels received in time for delivery on Christmas Day. This is very beautiful of Mr. Far ley. Now we understand about those pre-election lists of Federal ex penditures. In putting them out Mr. Farley was just the. public’s messenger of sympathy and love, In putting them out Mr. Farley was (3 ust'the7public’s:roes8engex of jyUL:. pathy and love, one’ who would not blast the cherished hopes - of b< ys. girls or vuters, and one who will not make good despite experience—up to the point, of course, where comes bevond the mailer’s control begin to operate.

There is stilll ‘ room for hope, however, that He wilh read it 'a little more closely and thoughtfully than he has, some of the earlier concoctions of his ecbnr- mic voodooists before hafills it and passes it out. ; ; Tbfs Federal investment is sug gested, as a remedy for industrial unemployment. The purpose of it is to create an artificial demand ■ for for goods which the public presum ably wants-but.either can not or-will bvy, and thereby to prompt employ ers to take on four or five million hands/which they are reluctant to. do at their own or their stockholders’ or creditors’ risk. The morale of the re-employed millions, it is right ly pointed out, would be much bet ter than under any kind of:relief system.

This I method guarantees they will come up to their name. For muffins we use a thicker bat ter, like a thick cake mixture. The plain muffins are mixed very quickly, tie dry Ingredients sifted and mixed together, the egg and ItquId well tailed. I like to pour the first mix ture all at one time into the others and then stir until smooth. Last of all, the melted fat, cooled a little after being melted, is added. When muEns are made in this way they are rather coarse grained. If you wish a finer grain, cut the fat into the fiour, nr cream with the sugar. For rich muffins the latter method is used and we actually get tea cates. Blueberries in summer, and dates or raisins iD winter are the fruits most often used • in muffins. This mixture Is sometimes baked In me cake and called sally iunn. Bran muffins are great favorites at present. Molasses is often used as the sweetening with them. They lave a nutty flavor that Is much liked, , Baking powder is usually used to raise muffins. As the eggs are few the amount of baking powder Is comparatively larger; the less fat used, the more baking powder Ik needed for tender muffins. Sometimes sour milk or buttermilk and soda are used as leavening. The proportion Is one-half teaspoon to each cup of sour milk. As we can not be perfectly certain of the amount of acid in the milk I like to add one teaspoon of baking powder to plain muffins or one-half teaspoon to rich muffins in addition. Mullins need a moderate oven, 375 degrees Fahrenheit, and when they are of medium size they should bake about 25 minutes. Smaller muffins will bake In 15 or 20 minutes.

AVhat had they achieved? AVell, one of them—S. .B. Calthorp of Roxbury, Mass.—obtained a pat ent on a streamline railroad some seventy years ago, the same type of bullet-shaped car that is today’s lat est transportation development, Jack Diamond tells us, in the Chicago Daily News. ■ And the other inventor, J. K. Barry of Philadelphia, ten years before that —in 1855—was granted a patent on an air-conditioning and cooling sys tem for passenger cars. The first air-conditioned train was actually in troduced by the Baltimore & Ohio almost three-quarters of a century later, In 1929. Explanation for the long interval between issuance of the patents and actual materialization was given by the man who called attention to the ancient patents. “Barry and Calthrop were certain ly pioneer inventors and, like many pioneers, were far ahead of their time,” stated Charles L. Howard, as sistant general counsel for the West ern Railroad association. “They plnnted the seeds'for air- conditioning and streamlining of trains, But it took the opportune mo ment and skilled engineers to culti vate the seeds to a successful growth as they are today. “For many years following tne days of Barry and Calthorp comfort and speed of travel were not the im portant things. “It was only necessary that we be moved from place to place with out the loss of limb or life. “Today it Is different. We demand in addition to safet$ the utmost com fort and a mile-or-two-a-minute pace, and we are getting It. In every today’s fleet chromium bullet-shaped trains. Barry’s application, dated May 15, 1855, recites how he “invented-a new and useful machine for effectually ventilating and cooiing railroad cars, omnibuses, stages, and other closed vehicles, and for ventilating and cool ing public and private buildings, in whole or in part, steamboats, steam ships and sailing vessels.” The Pennsylvania inventor did not yet know about the airplane, or he probably would have suggested that, too. He would keep things cool by a system of pulleys attached to the wheels of the train, which operated fans and water -wheels, revolving be hind a box packed with ice and then dispatching the cool air along an air tube. O L D B A L L P A R K I N M A Y A N C I T Y Ruins May Disclose Age of Monte Alban. line of industry there are Barrys and Calthrops. We scan their early in ventions and say with truth that there is nothing fundamentally new under the sun.” Mr. Howard stated the two pat ents are believed to be the first in their respective fields. To illustrate^ their age, the Barry patent is numbered 12,851 In the United States patent files; the Cal- thorp patent bears No. 49,227. And up to this time there has been pat ents issued to the number of 1,962,- 109. In his application, Calthrop cited the speed retardent caused by* wind resistance. “To diminish this atmo spheric resistance,” he declared, “Is the object of my invention.” The attainable speed of the 1865 “streamliner” is not stated, but in most external-respects- it resembles Will America’s football stadiums and -baseball diamonds become im portant aids to understanding our civilization a thousand years or so from now? asks the writer of a bul letin from Science Service. This comes to mind, he says, with the news that archeologists in Mexico have placed the age of a seemingly ageless city by taking note of its ball games. The city is the famous Monte Al ban, today a maze of buried ruins perched on a mountain ridge. Monte Albatf gained its widest modern fame when Mexican archeologists entered a tomb there and found a group of prehistoric dignitaries buried In shining golden regalia. But to the archeologists, whose first question about a place-is “How old is it?” Monte Alban remained a mystery. The treasure tomb dis covery added to the enigma, for it was “foreign” cache belonging to an- other culture deposited there for some reason not yet • discovered, Dated tombs are being found In Monte Alban, but archeologists can not yet read Zapotec Indian hiero glyphs, as they can Aztec and Mayan ones. Excavations of three seasons seemed to throw the dead city fur ther and further back in time with out a definite clue as to when It was a living metropolis,. Now there is a clue. This Is a tlachtli, or ball court. Tlachtli was a widespread Indian game played apparently for both sport and religion. Frans Blom1 archeologist of,„ Tulane university, has found .JbaU courts In Mayan cities dating from, early centuries of the Christian era In Chiapas and Guatemala. The game changed somewhat in the course of ten or fifteen centuries, to judge by the courts In northern Yucatan known to date from a few centuries before America’s discovery. ~ ' AU courts have an H-shaped space to play in. Very old ones of the South had several round altars in the center, tfnd the side walls en closing- the field sloped. Northern courts lost their altars as centuries went by, their side walls became vertical, and big stone, rings were placed in them for. the ball to go through. The Monte Alban Court seems to fall between these types, as its walls, still slope and are with out a stone ring, although it had already lost all but one of its cen tral altars. It is therefore likely that Monte Alban was occupied a thousand years ago. Butcher Shop “De Luxe” Late Paris Innovation Although the meat trade has taken advantage of many scientific inventions, butchers’ shops still pre sent a somewhat gruesome appear ance. A Paris doctor has now taken the first step towards hygienic meat shops, and has opened one himself. He has proved that it is possible to market clean, germ-proof meat, free from any fear of infection. His salesmen are clad from head to foot in spotless white tunics,' very much 'like those worn by surgeons. On their hands are antiseptic rub ber gloves. The salesmen and meat are enclosed in a huge glass cham ber in which the air, continually re newed and filtered is always at a temperature of 45 degrees F. No customers are allowed in, but they can see, distinctly, everything that is going on inside. They are fur nished with complete price . lists, and communicate with the men In side through microphones and loud speakers. The owner is now col laborating with the inventor of s .; patent “skin.” Olhis is a liquid which, when applied - over any article, forms a “skin” which prevents con tamination from germs and foreign matter. It provides the second line of defense to the germ-proof paper bags In which the meat is. packed. —Montreal Herald.

How Calotabs Help Nature : To Throw OfiF a Bad Cold Millions have found in Calotabs a most valuable aid in the treatment of colds. They take one or two tablets, the first night and repeat the third or fifth night if needed.How do, Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, CalotaBs are One of the most thorough and dependable of all intestinal eliminants, thus cleansing-the-intestinal tract of the germ-ladeh mucus and toxines. Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from the blood. Thus Caiotabs serve the double purpose of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of odds.Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the family package, ten cents for the trial package.

By the Lord's Supper here Is meant the bread and the wine used as em blems of the broken body and shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some Christians think of the Lord's Supper as a meal of fellowship eaten before the Institution of the bread and the cup. To them it means the agape or love-feast which was practiced in the early church. Such would prefer to call this the Communion instead of the Lord s Supper. With this understand ing. we can enter into the real under standing and blessing of the ordinance. I. The Institution of (v. 23). 1. The time. It was on the night of the betrayal of the Lord Jesus, after the betrayer had been announced. 2. Circumstances of (Matt 26:26). tt was m connection with the eating of the Passover. At the command of Jesus the disciples made ready the Passover, and while they were eating Jesus took bread, blessed it, and gave It to them. 3. The elements used. Bread— doubtless common bread of the Pass- over feast. The Cup—the fruit of the vine. II. Tne Significance of (vv. 24-26. Cf. MatL 26:26-28). Jesus took natural and literal ele ments and made them to be symbols of his own body and blood. 1. It is a memorial of the Lord (Lk. 22:19). When Jesus Christ left the world, he left the bread and the cup for the disciples, by which to remember him. 2. To show the Lord's sacrificial death (t. 26). He did not die as a hero, or as an example of unselfish de votion. but as a substitutionary ran som on the cross he made satisfaction for our sins. 3. It is a guaranty that our sins are ■forgiven (Rom. 4:2o). "It was the sig- net of the Son of God attached to re demption." 4. It symbolizes the believer s recep tion of Christ (I Cor. 10:16). He there by participates in the body and blood of Christ becoming a member of his body. 5- it has a forward look to a com pleted redemption (v. 26). When faith in Christ is exercised, redemption be gins. and its completion will take place at the coming of Christ (I Tbess. 4:16. 17). The bread and the cup constitute the keepsake of the Lord until he re turns. III. Qualifications for Participation in the Lord's Supper (vv. 27-29). I- A proper apprehension of its meaning (v: 27). hinting and drinking unworthily primarily refers not to the demerit of the communicant, but to his failure to grasp the meaning and im portance of the ordinance. Only re generated persons can discern the Lord's body. Faith In the integrity of Christ's person and work' is essential. Anyone who does not believe in the absolute deity of Christ and his vicari ous atoneraeDt is an unworthy commu nicant 2. Church membership (I Cor. 11:18- 22). The Lord's body is the church, which is composed of regenerated men and women united to Jesus Christ as head, and to each other as members of that body, by the Holy. Spirit 3. An orderly walk. Conduct which disqualifies for participation in the Lord's supper: a. Immorality (I Cor. 5:1-13). It is most perilous for one who is guilty of Immorality to approach the Lord s ta ble (v. 30). Sickness and death are often visited upon such. b. Heresy (Titus 3:10: I John 4:2. 8). This means tbat one who holds false-doctrine is disqualified for par ticipation in*the communion. C. A Schismatic. (Rom.-16:17). The one who stirs up party strife, who causes divisions In the church, should be excluded from the Lord s table. IV: Penalty for Failure to Discern the Lord’s Body (vv. 30-34). Approaching the Lords cable un worthily Issues In the visitation of. sick ness and death upon the individual. This seems to be plainly the meaning of "weak and-sickly among you, and many sleep." ^ This explains the illness of many, Christiana ’The way :■To es cape the, judgment is to judge our selves.

Dan had been an orphan at the same school with Rose Marie and a great friendship had sprung up between them. She had since been adopted by a kindly family In the Bast but bad always kept In touch with her - old friend. Danny. Now the Invitation for Christmas. Dan had never been invited anywhere for this one great holiday a n d h is whole being was stirred with great expectation. Danny had al ways had a most pleasant Christmas at th e' orphanage. Many generous per sons had helped make it so, but he had never been to a. real “honest to goodness” home Christmas celebra tion. His heart leaped with joy. “Wonder how it will be! Wonder who’ll be there! Oh boy. I can t wait! - "Let s see.” pondered Dan. "How old is Rose Marie? She was twelve when she left and that was five years ago. Why she must be seventeen, and a young lady! Wonder how she looks! Wonder (f she still blinks those hazel eyes and shakes her -molasses candy hair about like she used to do.” Some days later an atmosphere of complete. Christmas Joy pervaded the cozy home of the Gaylords on East End avenue. The turkey was sizzling In the oven and the great variety of Yule cookies were being frosted and. tinted with the Christmas colors. Some hours later, all was a hushed silence as the little family seated about the lighted tree awaited the gnest of the evening. Soon there were footsteps crunching the snow and the next moment the loud peal of the doorbell. Father met Dan with the cordial welcome of "Merry Christmas, my boy. I- presume ^his is Danny—our Rose s old friend from Rye Junction.- Then Mother and Rose Marie, their faces wreathed In Chnstmas smiles, reached- for Dannys outstretched hands, simultaneously.

"What are you talking to yourself about?*' A boyish voice spoke at Madge’s elbow. "Is Christmas having its effect upon you. or is it the thought of a certain voung man who is coming this evening?” “Both, I guess." Madge answered lightly. Then, turning to her broth er. she spoke more seriously. -Richard, do—do you think. Ben will have changed very much—do you think he wiirilke me as well as he used to?" “Well. I shouldn’t be surprised if he has become a little bit tanned from the African climate, or if he has grown a mustache, or got a bit stouter, but as to whether he will like you as much as he used to—I d say no.

N e w s R e v ie w o f C u r r e n t E v e n ts th e W o r ld O v e r Robinson Says President Plans No New Taxes— Franco- German Agreement Concerning the Saar Reported— Vinson’s W arning to Japan. By EDWARD W. PICKARD ©, Western Newspaper Dnlon.* Senator Robinson JOE ROBINSON of Arkansas, senate floor leader, spent four hours In conference with President Roosevelt at Warm Springs, and emerged with the welcome assurance that the New Deal program to be pre sented to congress in January does not contemplate the im position of new taxes or the substantial in crease of existing taxes. He added that he believed expendi tures for normal gov ernment purposes would be kept well witbin the national income. Of course, this does not mean a balanced budget, for this cannot be had while enormous sums are being spent for relief and re-employment, but the senator would not admit that the cost of these would go above the ten-billion-dollar mark. "Unemployment relief is to be pre ferred to the dole,” he said. “A rea sonably conservative program should be adopted with a view to tapering off the deficit.” Senator Robinson said that the bonus was discussed at some length but no conclusion was reached. Intimates of the White House have expressed the fear that a bonus program calling for expenditure of more than two bil lion dollars may be passed over a veto. Senator Pat Harrison of Uississippi, chairman of the senate finance com mittee, who was also present at the conference, left for Washington to be gin a study of unemployment insur ance.' Next day the President’s chief caller was Secretary of Commerce Daniel G. Roper, and he told Mr. Roosevelt that business would move rapidly on the road to recovery if only it were as sured of a safe and sane federal pro gram of expenditures. To correspond ents Mr. Roper said he was greatly cheered by Senator Robinson’s state-, ment. He^felt that the left wing de mand for vast sums of money for re lief of the unemployed must be checked and that there must be a fur ther shifting of relief control to com munities.' ....... T ROUBLE over the Saar plebiscite may be averted after all the alarm, for it is reported unofficially that Chan cellor Hitler of Germany and Foreign Minister Pierre Laval of France have reached an accord providing that Ger many will pay for French mining prop erties In the Saar if France abandons the effort to keep the region under the jurisdiction of the League of Nations. Substance was given this report when Relchsfuehrer Hitler instructed all the Nazi propaganda forces In the Saar to cease their activities. He or dered that disturbances must be avoid ed and that the Nazis must rely largely on the press to keep the swastika fly ing In the disputed territory after the plebiscite This would seem to insure an Impartial vote on January 13. M1I JAPAN, having given unofficial notice that she will withdraw- from the Washington naval treaty, still seems to have hope that the United States and Great Britain will agree to give her naval parity. Butjustin case, she has now invited France and Italy to join her In denouncing the pact Those nations may consent, but the two great Anglo-Saxon nations are as one In demanding that the 5- 5-3 ratio be maintained. Representative Carl _ Vinson of Georgia, who Representative is chairman o f th e ®ar* Hinson house committee on naval affairs, has made plain the policy, he will insist upon. “I sincerely Hope it will not be nec essary to scrap the treaty,” he said, “but it seems now we cannot hope very strongly for anything else. We cannot grant naval equality to Japan at any price. If the Tokyo government does insist upon wrecking the treaty I will insist that the house naval affairs com mittee and congress make enough money available to build five ships for each three laid down by Japan.” Japan, he said, had once agreed to be satisfied with three warships for each five built by the Dnlted States or Great Britain. "Officially and for mally it said that was all it needed," Vinson said, “yet now it wants more.” AGAIN it may be said that if or n wlwn another EnropeSn ' '#ar‘ breaks out, it wUl start among the southern nations. The blaze lighted by the assassinations of King Alexan der and Louis Barthou in Marseilles Is still smoldering. Jugoslavia’s dele gates In the LeaguevOf Nations formal ly charged Hungary with complicity in the murder of the king, asserting she had harbored Balkan terrorists. Hun- gary demanded immediate action by the league’s couficil on thiraccusatlon,; declaring “the peace of the world" might be affected. The Hungarian note asked that the matter be placed on the agenda of the council's session called to meet on December 3 to dis cuss the forthcoming plebiscite in the Saar, so that Hungary might “defend its honor against proceedings which have no other purpose than to compro mise the good name of the whole Hun garian nation.” * The document then pointed out that the council, under Article IV of the covenant of the league, may deal with any question affecting the peace of the world. It is, therefore, the duty of the coun cil to face this question as soon as possible, it asserted, “and thus guard against the grave dangers which might arise from the situation that Hungary is still bound to bring to the attention of the council.” The Jugoslavian charges were sup ported by the other two states of the little entente, Czechoslovakia and Rumania. Italy, which has stood by Hungary, was expected to refuse to grant extra dition to France of Dr. Ante Pavelich, alleged leader of the gang that planned and carried out the assassination of King Alexander. The court of appeals at Turin denied the application of France* and it was believed the min ister of justice would confirm this rul ing. LEON ARCHI MBA UD, _ French re porter of the budget, declared be fore the .chamber of deputies that It was undeniable that an understanding exists between France and Russia, and that the Soviet government had offered armed aid to France In case of a conflict with Germany. This caused great ex- citem ent and the French office content ed itself with a denial that there was any' military accord. The Russian offer was gen- an Fabry era]|y believed, to have been made by Maxim Litvinov, Rus sian foreign commissar, last spring to the late Louis Barthou and again to his successor, Pierre LavaL CoL Jean Fabry, former French minister of war, gave supporT to Archimliaud’s'“State?' ment by asserting that France’s knowl edge of German rearmament, the deiT tails of German troops and informa tion concerning the secret manufac ture of arms and airplanes in the retch was supplied by Russia. The two men were arguing for a large, war budget, and Archimbaud pictured Russia’s huge military machine working with France as the only means of preserving peace In Europe. D ISPATCHES from Germany tell of serious unrest In the retch, arid though the government calls them “ma licious lies,.” it is a fact that the army, and police'forces are-* being held under emergency orders. A long smoldering feud between the reichswehr (regular army) and the schutzstaffel (black shirt picked Nazi guards) was believed responsible for the orders, which Involved suspension of Christmas furloughs for soldiers and military police. Drilling of Nazi storm troops has increased, reports said, while all mar riages of army men arid police set for tfcs Christmas holidays, popular wed ding period for Germany’s military men, have been postponed. Baron Werner von Fritsch, chief of the reichswehr, in a memorandum to Hitler, said plainly in discussing Nazi suppressive methods that, unless a more liberal spirit prevailed, the gov ernment would face opposition from all sides In case of war. He told Hit ler something must be done about the bad blood between the schutzstaffel and the reichswehr. BOLIVIA’S troops In the Chaco were being soundly whipped by the Par aguayans and President Daniel Sala manca was blamed. He visited the war front and was arrested by Gen. En rique Penaranda and forced to resign. Meantime Vice President Jose Sorzano had taken over the presidential powers by decree and installed a new cabinet Penaranda appeared to be the virtual dictator and It seemed likely he would take steps to bring about peace with Paraguay. INSPECTOR SAMUEL P. COWLET and Agent Herman E. Hollis of the bureau of investigation, Department of Justice, engaged in a gun battle with Lester Gillis, better known as George (“Bdby Face”) Nelson, Public Enemy Ho. I, and a companion, near Barring ton, HL, and both the federal men were shot to death by machine guns in the hands of the bandits. TKe killers, ac companied by a woman, escaped for the time being in the agents* car, their own being disabled. Next day Nelson’s body was found miles away, In Niles Center, at the en trance to a cemetery. He had died of nine bullet wounds from the guns of the federal agents he killed .and evi dently hts body had been left at the roadside after bis companions had failed to save his life. In the same region were found Nelson’s clothing and the car the bandits had fled in after the battle. Cowley was the man who killed John Dillinger, chief of the gang to which Nelson belonged, and he also was In command of the posse that ran down and killed “Pretty Boy” Floyd in an Indiana cornfield not long ago. T HANKSGIVING day in America was wedding day in London for the duke of Kent, fourth son of the king and queen of England, and Princess Marina of Greece. The metropolis swarmed with royalty and nobility from many lands, and vast throngs of ordinary persons watched the parade to Westminster Abbey, where the mar riage . ceremony was performed. The ancient church was filled with the for tunate ones who had been invited and the scene was glittering. The only Americans present were United States Ambassador and Mrs. Robert W. Bing ham. .The ceremony In the abbey was cele brated at 11 o’clock in the morning, and It was followed immediately by an other, the Greek Orthodox. The latter took place In the private chapel of Buckingham palace and was celebrated by Archbishop Germanos, archimand rite of the Greek church In London. Only a select company of royal wit nesses was present. REPORTS of various business groups Indicate that “luxury spending” is becoming more noticeable and is aiding Industry considerably. This includes everything from the baby’s doll to the palatial yacht—-and some place In be tween Is fine furs—and all trade organ izations report an increase. Reports to Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Ro per by business leaders indicated that sales in some gift lines this year would be 40 per cent greater than a year ago. ,. Charity Is not forgotten in _ this re vival of spending. Community chests and councils reported that contribu tions to community chest drives this year already are within 10 per cent of the 1929 total, and national income has dropped about 50 per cent in that time.

ColUff* of IsSBW BwW SW FW SSSW W W W r ic k e t s Many persons have an idea tfcftt rickets is a disease affecting young children of Impov- erlshed parents only. But this to not true. Rickets Is no respecter of wealth. You have but to walk in vari ous sections of a city to notice that there are just about as many evidences of bow-legs, knock- knees, bandy legs and arms, pigeon chests and square* topped heads among the older persons in the well-to- do sections as there are In the poorer sections. This Is because when these persons were children, doctors did not know so much about rickets as we do today. And it is to be hoped that no child within the reach of modern medical, knowledge will ever have to endure the physical handicap caused by this dis ease. The only prevention and the only cure of rickets is an adequate supply of vitamin D. Sunshine is a great source of this important vitamin. It is for this reason that sun suits are ideal clothing for small children whenever the temperature permits, and why It Is good even in zero weather for a child to have its nap on a sunny porch—the child of course to be kept warm, and Its face,protected from the direct glare of the sun. Ultra violet light, too, Is a source of Vitamin D, but, except In a few instances, this is expensive and ImpractlcaL , The other great source of Vitamin -D is in a very limited list of foods. The oil from fish--Uver leads—cod liver oil is the one with which we ari» most familiar; next comes egg yolk; and there is some Vitamin D In butter fat, and just a trace of It In mother’s milk. These foods also contain Vitamin A, a very important health promoting and general anti-lnfectlve vitamin. Since we are not able to control the number of sunshiny days, our best hope of doing away with rickets is to see that the child gets the amount of vitamin D that he should have In the food be eats. This is what medical science Is trying to do- now. It might be Interesting to note here that rickets first manifested Itself, in Europe In the Sixteenth century when people were more and more attracted to living In cities, with their dark houses and dark, narrow streets, and when people generally were living more of an indoor life, and babies were kept more and more In the house. - In this connection it might be inter esting also.to note an old folk remedy that is stili used -In England and Ire land. Dr. Larigdon Porter, child spe cialist, tells of visiting the rural dis tricts of England and Ireland and finding a concoction there that the grandmother In the family puts up every autumn for the grandchildren. She fills a jar with whole raw eggs and then covers it with sour wine. When the calcium in the shells is dissolved, she stirs the mixture vig orously, strains out the membrane of the egg, and then feeds a spoonful of the concoction to the children once or twice a day throughout the winter, Moderrisclence approves this remedy. There is calcium in the egg shell, vita mins in the egg yolk, and the acid of the wine acts^as a preservative. Since milk Is so generally a good food, health authorities In this country are now experimenting with four methods of Increasing vitamin D In milk to the point where milk so treated will have a sufficient amount of this vitamin to prevent rickets. The. first, is to treat yeast with ultra-violet light, which in creases the amount of Vitamin D sev eral hundred times. This activated yeast Is fed to dairy cattle, and they In turn Becrete In the milk enough vitamin D for It to be antl-rachlttc. Visitors to the 1934 Century of Prog ress saw a demonstration of this vlt- mln D milk In a dairy herd at the south end of the grounds. A second method is to expose the dairy cows themselves to ultra-violet light so that they build up their own vitamin D, and give milk with a higher persentage of this Important vitmain, A third method is to treat the milk Itself with ultra-violet light, and a fourth method is to add to the milk in concentrated form a tasteless cod-ltver oil, so that the child gets both the milk and the valuable cod liver oil at the same.time. It Is difficult to say, as yet which of these methods will prove the best, and it will be interesting to'watcft their de velopment AU of them, ~ necessarily but unfortunately, add to the cost of the milk! . But unless you can get this vitamin D milk, give your children a teaspoon* Inl of cod liver oil and see that they ; are but every, sunlight day. Older *Mi. dren may have the yolk of" an egg. Children with rickets not only have softening of the bones but they are more liable to pneumonia and other diseases. ' These m easures should Ce for the dark months, beginning w ttr October or November, and- through AprlL Rlckete occur most frequently dur ing the second half of the first year of Ufe and the first half of the* second year;- Dark-skinned people, as negroes and Italians, are more prone to It than light-skinned people; their pigment act* as an arm oragalnat sunlight ©. Wtitan JIawiMHt Dntoii . National Topics Interpreted b y W illia m B ru c lra rf W ashlngton--Henry A. Wallace, sec retary of agriculture, is girding his armor to tight off a Wallace' drive to revise the Will Fight agricultural - adjust ment act Mr. Wal lace sees many sinister moves now be ing made in that direction arid he is preparing to meet his adversaries in the congressional battle that now ap pears certain to come. The secretary freely admits now that there may be some changes necessary in the adjustment act, but his position will be boldly against too much whit tling when agricultural legislation is before congress in January. The con viction is held by him that the agri cultural situation has been improved by the New Deal program, and he is avowedly favorable to its retention In a general way, although In a recent speech Mr. Wallace told the national grange that probably it would be neces sary to re-examine the basis of the program that has been operating now more than a year. “Exactly what form the drives on the adjustment act and administration may take this coming winter,” said Mr. Wal lace In an Interview the other day, “no one of us can say, but from present Indications I would anticipate the most potent drive to be directed at restric tions on agricultural production. So I envision a conflict, a choice between two paths, one leading to unrestricted agricultural production at the earliest possible moment, the other leading to continuance and perfection of the pres ent control methods. ' Either path may very well require certain changes In the Agricultural Adjustment a c t Be fore I-, discuss unrestricted production in detail, I would like to say parentheti cally that I am for i t provided there Is a sufficient excess of imports over exports to service the debts owed us by foreign nations, and In addition to pay a fair price for our exportable sur plus; and provided, furthermore, that shipment of these excess products abroad does not Impoverish onr soil beyond repair." While Mr. Wallace is saying that the drive is on the adjustment act, observ ers are finding considerable objection among farmers to control from Wash ington. I think it is an undoubted fact that the American farmers are: rock- ribbed individualists and, that being true, they naturally resent having bu reaucrats slttlrig in' Washington offices tell them what to do and how tojjo It Because the farm Industry was so. flat on its back when the adjustment act was passed, the bulk of the farmers were willing to accept anything that promised a measure of relief, according to the considered judgmerit of students who have watched the whole picture. They have - found now, however, that unhappy consequences have resulted, and I am told by many members of congress that they are uncertain whether there Is a majority of farm ers in this country now favorable to the New Deal farm program. * » * It seems reasonably certain, there fore, that the discussion of farm legis- latioii - In the new Consumer congress will devei- Io Be Heard op that which '“has . not been developed before, namely, the voice of the con sumer. There is also likely to be vio lent expressions from the corn and hog producers because of the processing taxes on hogs. A goodly number of farm leaders believe, after surveys among actual farm ers,. that the proc essing, taxes on hogs have been taken out of the farmer’s hide and not the hog. I told you some weeks ago that there was every prospect of a proposal to repeal the 'Bankhead cotton law. That movement has gained In momentum be yond belief. The Department of Agri culture, under Mr. Wallace’s direction, Is taking a census, a vote, on the ques tion whether this law should be con tinued. The result is that congress will find that question on its door-step also, and don’t forget that opponents of the Bankhead law are real fighters. Those who claim to have suffered dam ages under it believe that one dose Is enough, and- if they do not gain their point one - way, they will accoriiplisb tbelr desires in another, much, to the chagrin of Senator Bankhead; of Ala bama, who made so many.long speeches In' its behalf. • Mr. Wallace stated that he expects the main drive against present agri cultural laws to be In favor of removal of all restrictions on production. He thinks that is a ridiculous course to fol low. He proposes -to give- present schemes of control tim e. for trial In order to perfect them. In this he has the whole-hearted support of the New Deal professors who clutter: up Depart ment of Agriculture offices In numbers greater than In any other government department The professors have their.: contacts at the. Capitol, and they n?e them. Thus, observers here feel that opponents of the present adjust ment act may not win unless the ob jections claimed to exist among the farmers themselves, are made -vocal. If that occurs, It to declared by authori ties, we may see PresldenY Roosevelt taking a hand because of the politics Involved. If the President-throws bis J S f r i favor of revision, Oiere IiB Uttle doubt but that changes will come. H be Indicates that <he is. satisfied., with tbe^present set-up, the strength of the professors will, be so multiplied that defeat of th^ii program will "be next fc Impossible. : Notwithstanding PrM(, Bankers r.J?* 5 ttl6tItu I Distrustful here,6* .. ^ was believJi h tim e to have salved the S 0 ^tag s, considerable to ru s ? tra tio n policies has b‘e«un 2** I la te am ong th e banking fra “ > w as noticed before Hip nI 0ltJ- It M.

(APOLOGIES TO SHAKESPEARE)AfPtMFetDttt Jonas And Kluttz May Make Trouble For Democrats. The Republicans will have two ■members of the legislature who may attempt to give the Democrats a lit tle trouble, stated a former member of the General Assembly from Forsyth Monday. He said that their names were Charles A Jonas, of Lincolntou, and L. F. Kluttz, of Newton. “Both of ’em are smart and I am expecting them to do a lot of talking and attempting to block sotne of the legislation the Demo crats desire to enact,” said this Democrat. Mr. Jonas, it will be recalled rep resented the present tenth district in Congress one term, but was de feated at the next election. “Jonas and Kluttz are not only outstanding campaigners but I guess they are two of the ablest members of the G. 0 . P. in North Carolina” remarked a former resident of Catawba county now a citizen of Winston Salem —Winston Sentinel Al Smith Arrested In Kings Mountain. Alfred E Smith (doesn’t that name have a familiar sound every time whisky is mentioned) was given a sentenc in Cleveland re- cot der’s court the past week for public drunkenness. Kings Mountain deputies who brought him before Judge Joseph W rightsaidthatSmith was wander ing around the town io.'.king for his automobile, which, besaie, had four flat tires. The- officers found the car (which had no flaits) and brought Smith in. He wore no brown derby and so tar as he knows is no kin to the man who made that hat famous — Ex.

Land MOCKSVILLE, NORTH CAROiiiNA, W EDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2 6, 1 9 3 4 NUMBER 2 3 Charlotte Democrats Pall A “Boner;” CFrom Western Carolina Tribune) James A. Farley, Post Master General and Democratic Nitional Committee Chairman,-with. *a flair for making" “dedication” speech!? at new postoffice building, (which never mentioned the building bur are devoted to singing the- praises of Mr Roosevelt and the New Deal) pulled a boner down at Cha? Iotte the past week. A fine new postoffice building had been completed there some months ago, and all arrangements- were made to bring the formei sand peddler from hissanctumsanc torum at Washington and have him make his usual speech of dedicating the new structure to the use and glory of th* faithful Democrats They had the lines of march, the parade", the big lights, the leaders and the ward heelers, all gathered in the Queen City for the occasion. There was Congressman Bul win kle, representative from that dis trict, who was all over the place. He strutted, and he puffed, he pal avered, bowed and scraped, accept ing tbe plaudits of the crowd as a crowned head in a heathern coun try might accept the homage of a peasantry that was kept pool by royal decree. . Bulwinkle actually acted as if he had obtained the new postoffice building for the city p.f CharJottei Then a message .had been prepared; bv the Republicans of !the city wa£ .placed in Bulwinkle’s' hands,.;, and '4 h is'f£ M e" rs^ cockiness. Themsssagethat had been hand ed to Mr. Fai ley, copies of which had been scattered thru the crowd, read as follows: •'Hon. James A. Farley, “ Postmaster General, ‘ Dear Mr Postmaster General: “The Republicans of Mecklen burg county welcome you to our city for tbe dedication of our beauti ful new postoffice building, secured by our two distinguisheid Repub licans former Congressman Charles A. Jonas, and ex Postmaster J. D Albright. . “Yours very truly, “ Mecklenburg Republieans.’ Then it was that Post Master General Farlev. discovered the fact it was a Republican Congressman who had obtained the new Charlotte postoffice, and obtained it from a a Republican Congress with the aid and assistance of a Republican post master who had worked in season and out to get a new building for the patrons of the office. Bulwinkle had been in Congress for many years, and bad failed to get anything for h is district. Charles A- Jonas, a Republican, de feated Btilwinkle in 1928. held the office two years aDd got the post, office for C harlotte. In 193° Bul winkle was again elected, as he was in 1932 and in 1 9 3 4—and be still gets his salary and expenses—th at’s all ■ Yet when Mr. Farley came to ••dedicate” the new Jonas post- office Bulwinkle was right there in the parade, and the man who ob tained the postoffice building for C harlotte was not even invited a t t e n d t h e ceremonies! T he fair minded Democrats C harlotte and M ecklenburg coun tv did hot approve this High an ^ ed highw ay robbery of honor an a m an who was to credit from tbis honor of due ahout the m atter: r A broadside against Postm aster Charles A , Jonas, and former Postmasteir Albright in the dedication- of this new postoffice addition last Wedtfes^ day was. delivered last night' by. ; S;; Chester Nixon, Seversville political leader. - '"'M''-S-V:" “Anyone who is interested .in Jhg growth of the Democratic party’/ ’i said Mr. Nixon, who had- just fei turned frbm Mr. Jonas’ native:- county of Lincoln, “shouid- resent: the attitude Postmaster Pani YounW and the committee on arrangements: showed toward Mr. Jonas 'and Mjf Albright. . Neither the tormer ConJ gressman nor the postmaster was ii;.«' vited to be present at the • exercises at the exercises at which Mr. Farleiy spoke. Now I hold no hnef 'for: Mr. Jonas. He is a Republicatt and I am a Democrat, but he is j|j- man entitled to respective of partyl affiliations. It was he not' M r'' Younts, Mr. Bailey, nor Mr -Itnii winkle, nor any other Democrat; who was responsible for Chariottfe getting the postoffice adition. „The: appropropriation was'tnade during Mr. Albright’s tenure of office, obk tained by Mr. Jonas from a Repub lican Congress, and the Democrats had nothing to do with it. | ‘ “The least the committee on rangements, Postmaster Youths and other Democrats couH ha done, would have been to have.rJi- ognized the man responsible getting the new postoffice addi tion.” •" ... • Mr. Nixpn. called attention the close ydte in the legislative ri .in Liucctln county, .in the v gene: elect ion,*’>on November 6. JonaslAyon by.only 3 5 votes,” he! S-Iidtvv Which" shows there'ifvSorae necessity for Democrats to assume a courageous leadetsbio in Lincoln county if the party i* to be the do. min&nt party in that county.: If Mr. Younts had thought or had known better he would have seen to it that one 0 1 the foremost citi zens of Lincoln was recognized. It would have made a much better impression upon the Democratic and Republican friends of the for mer Republican Congressman in Lincoln county and would have helped the .Democratic party thru out the 1 0 th congressional district.” The Charlotte News, also Demo cratic, staled in an editorial the following straight-from the shoul der comment: Viewed from this distance, the dedication ot the' new and enlarg ed Charlotte federal building and the attending celebration ■ appar ently lacked but one thing of being perfect. That was recognition to the man who secured the appropriation and the man in whose term of office -as postmaster and custodian the struc ture was erected. To be sure, Charles A. Jonas, form er Congressman, and Judson D. Albright, former postmaster, are Republicans—and this was a Democratic meeting. But since the little detail of getting funds fc r the magnificent building was "a chore performed by Mr. Jonas,'and since Mr. Albright was the pottj master under whose administration tbe structure took foim. there should have been some:mention of it and some effort to have present ed the men along with the host of state dignataries—most of whom had nothing to do with securing the buildiqg.

Manchuria, for the- first time, has become an exporter of raw cot ton. Egypt has removed all restric tions and control from cotton so that the cotton produced in that country may pass into consumers’ hands as rapidly as possible.” Every word of this warning can be adapted to Canada-and her problem of finding markets for her grain. We have been losing these markets for years and we shall continue to lose them until we face up to the neces sity of doing two things—meeting the competitive price of the wheat of other nations in markets where we have to complete on every terms; and taking payment for our wheat exports in the products' of other countries, even though this may in dqde manufactured products which m l I enter into competition with our native manufactures. These are hard savings to the wheat grower or the handier of wheat grower of wheat who thinks we have tbe consuming public of the world by the neck and can make it take.our product on our own terms; and to the Canadian manufacturer who believes that the home market should be his at whatever price is necessary to make things comfort able and easy for himseif.<. Nevertheless' these are truths; ajid if we rgject them because we find them disagreeable to contemplate we shall encounter something much more disagreeable a little further a- |ong the road. One Year of Repeal. With the end of the first year of prohibition repeal one finds that liquor is legal in thirty states, as com. pared with nineteen on the date of repeal, 7 This, is appears is about the only progress made m handling the •liquor problem. Reports from many states indicate that the saloon has returned, that bootlegging flourishes and that the government is losing mucji. revenue In lact, while the Federal Treasury collected about ^350,000,000 this is about $150,000,000 short of what was expected from the $ 2 a gallon tax. The Posters at this office, p u b l i c a n Gongressmau Total saving in America banks' are: increasing again—how your private balance? , And How Do They Get By With It. The following from Cbarity and Children, Thomasville Baptist or phanage newspaper is so palpabh true and to the point that we are passing it on: “ A^ young'Presbyterian divinity student killed his wife and a Cath plic priest in the priest’s hotel room J'hose who found them said the priest and the woman were onlv oartrallv dressed. That was the first statement. Later thev had more and more clothes on It will jeveimtallv be proven that the youue women had gone, to the father’? room to confess her sins. Firs evidence was to the effect that all three bad been on a di unken orgy It will probably be proven later that the Presbyterian student was druuk and the priest was taking fatherly care of him and his young bride. It is simply marvelous how testimony can be had to clothe a Catholic, howevei ^naked he may have been physically and morally.” "The above refers to the scene in a New York hotel where a “ Holy Father” went out and bought li quor. got a . young bridegroom druak and carried his bridge to an other floor of the hotel to hear her ’■confession/” The bridegroom a- woke from his stupor and when he found his beautiful young bride in the arms of the arms of tbis “Fatb er Confessor” be lost his reason and killed them both He will plead the “unwritten law’,’ but the Catholic influence in New York is ■so gteat that it may "go hard with the'ybubg man — Ex. - ~ Many Sick Dems.

With these figures, which were given us by a member of the N. C.

Well, there is always something tJ worry about. The North Caro- i ta legislature meets next week, and Congress will also be in ses .sion. With these two evils to con tend with, we aie in a bad fix.

Davie county people want a fair next fall. Here’s hoping the Fair directors will call a meeting early in the year and resurrect this much needed institution. A county with out a fair is like a ship without a rudder—doesn’t.get anywhere. A good lady in Mocksville called us up on the ’phone a few days ago and wanted to know if we could do anything about certain folks getting Federal relief that wouldn’t work and didn't need the aid. We told her that we could not, and referred her to the head of the organization here. She said she couldn’t get in touch with the organization head here after trying for some time to do so. W ethen referredherto Mrs. Thos. 0 ’Berry, at Raleigh. She remarked that she had taken the matter up with Mrs. O’Beiry, who had promised an investigation some time ago, but nothing bad been done. She'was then referred to Harry L. Hopkins, the big boss at Washington. Failing to get Mr Hopkins interested, she might try taking up the matter with Franklin Delano Roosevelt or Senator King Fish Long. Notice To Farmers. .

Dec. 1 9.—Rex Mar shall, 2 7 -year-old service station operator, was sentenced to four years in state’s prison today follow ing his conviction of manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Richard A Loyd, Mocksville nursery man, on October 2 3 . The state asked con viction on either second • degree murder or manslaughter., . v Notice of intention to appeal to the supreme court was given, and bond was set at $5 , 0 0 0 by Judge W. F. Harding. The jury returned a verdict after deliberating one hour and four min utes at the close of a three-day trial. Conviction was on Marshall’s own testimony and that of bis wife, on his plea of self-defense, inasmuch a9 the state offered no evidence. He testified that he shot Loyd in his filling station near Hickory when the Mocksville man grabbed a hammed after being ordered out of the place. The hammer was not raised, he said. Tbe fatal shooting occurred-after Lovd had asked the defendant’s wife for a date, they testified, Loyd had come to Hickory for shrub bery at a' nearby nursery and walk ed to Marshall’s filling statiofi, near the Catawba county line, where the shooting occured. An even dozen .veterans of Gen eral Lee’s army of the South are all that remain in Davie- county, a check of the pension rolls, reveals. Two have passed awav.in the past 1 2 months.

A Sheek and Edward Stewart. Colonel J. D. Hodges is probably one of the outstanding veterans of the state as be is the, oldest living graduate of Duke University, form erly Trinity and a prominent adu- cator statesman and civic leader in addition to having been' a cavalry officer. Edward Stewart, who will celebrate his one hundredth birth day next August 6, is the oldest Calvin Cranfil, who is 9 5. is also a resident of the county, but draws bis pension through the Yadkin county office.

In spite of-ail the prosperity we read about, and all the money tbai the -Federal government has turn ed loose in Davie county, there will be some children in the county-who will think today that Santa Claus is dead. It’s a pity that some of the funds couldn’t have been used to purchase a few toys and Christmas sweets, clothes, etc., for the little children whose parents can scarcely get enough cash to pur chase the bare necessities of life Tuis is a great world—the rich are getting richer while the poor are becoming poorer as the days go by.

BURGESS YANK YANK THE NUTHATCH RETURNS P ERHAPS you can guess how pleased Peter Rabbit was one morning when, as he hopped over the old stone wall Into the Old Orchard, he heard the voice of an old friend. It was the voice of Yank Yank, the Nuthatch, aDd while it was far from being swen there was In it something of good cheer and contentment At once Peter hur ried In the direction from which it came. On the trunk of a tree be caught sight of a gray and black and white V i I “Welcome Home, Yank Yank,” Cried Peter. bird about the size of Downy the Woodpecker. The top of his head and upper part of his back were shining black while the rest of his back was bluish gray. The sides of his head and his breast were white. The outer featherB of his tail were white, with black patches near their tips. But Peter didn’t need to see how Yank Yank was dressed In order to recognize him, Peter would have known him if he had been so far away that the colors of his coat did not show at all. You see, Yank Yank was doing a most surprising thing, some thing no other bird can do. He was walking head first down the trunk of that tree, seemingly quite as much at home and unconcerned In the queer position as If he were right side up. He lifted his head and called a greet ing which sounded very much like the repetition of his own name. Then he turned and began to climb the tree as easily as he had come down. “Welcome home, Yank Yank!” cried Peter, hurrying up quite out of breath. Once more Yank Yank turned so that he was head down and his eyes twin kled as he looked down at Peter. “You’re mistaken, Peter,” said he. “This Isn’t home. I’ve simply come down here for the winter. You know home is where you raise your children, and my home Is in the great woods' further north." “Well, anyway, this is a kind of home. It’s your winter home,” pro tested Peter, “and I certainly am glad to see you back. The Old Orchard wouldn't be quite the same without you. Did you have a pleasant sum mer? And if you please, Yank Yank, tell me where you built your home and what it was like.” “Yes, Mr. Curiosity, I had a very pleasant summer,’’ replied Yank Yank. “Mrs. Yank Yank and I raised a fam ily of six, and that is doing a lot bet ter than some folks I know, If I do say it As to our nest, it was made of leaves and feathers and it was In a hole In a certain old stump that not a soul knows of but Mrs. Yank Yank and myself. Now is there anything else you want to know?” e. T. W.

Sherman’s Georgia Headquarters A modern dwelling has been made of the house In which General Sherman had his headquarters after seizing At lanta, Ga., during the Civil war. THROUGH A wbmaris Eyes B y J E A N N E W T O N WITH NOTHING TO DO A WELL known minister the other day preached a sermon on the need of modern men and women for solitude. "Our mental powers,” he said, "ex press themselves most efficiently In solitude.” And he cited the work of successful people and creative artists the world over who have accomplished their best work alone, away from/peo- ple. ' . Do we need solitude! It seems to me the question is will we tolerate it. For the one companionship that most peo ple today seem zealously to avoid Is their own. It is one thing to like pleasant company and enjoy the society of our friends. But an honest observer of the modern scene must admit that the way the average woman clings to com pany and craves companionship for every bit of leisure time looks almost like a mania to get away from herself. Why? Is It the. rush and bustle of this modern age making so many de mands on our time? Is it simply dis inclination to give up something else to take the time for getting acquainted with ourselves? That would be an agreeable explanation, but one difficult of acceptance by anyone who has seen that look of consternation on the faces of . women whom a “broken date” left “high and dry” with themselves. It Is not only from the viewpoint of work, accomplishment, that solitude is a good thing: Every one of us needs a little leisure time alone just for our growth as a person. As our bodies need time to rest from physical activity to rebuild, so our minds need rest to con template, to digest, to assimilate, in a way that we cannot when we are pre occupied with things or people. Many a woman who is hectic about “making a date” for every moment she has free, might find a pleasant sur prise In store for her if she tried tak ing a walk, for instance, with herself. She might find a certain satisfying something that will open up to her a new resource and give her a feeling of new power the next time someone disappoints her and she finds herself with “nothing to do.”& Bell Syndicate.—WNU Service. “One nice thing about the telephone,” says jibbering Jane, “is that It makes lying so easy that one’s conscience doesn’t bother them.” ©.

N o t E a sy to D e fin e “R ic h e s ” Only Individual Can Decide the Amount of Money He or She Would Consider Requisite to Give Feeling of Contentment. What it means to be rich, is some thing that it is worth while to con sider. How much money would con stitute riches to you? How would you know when you were rich? What are the signs and earmarks of riches that would be distinguishable by others? Would you be rich it riches were constituted In money only? To what extent are you rich? Or are you absolutely Impoverished? Have you no cherished possessions from which you could not be parted without feeling the poorer by the ab sence of them? From the kind of questions it is readily discernible that the word riches Is many sided. Have you ever consulted a dic tionary, or, better still, Roget’s the saurus, which Is a treasure-house book of words and meanings, and been amazed at the many meanings one word can have? Try it, If you haven’t It’s interesting and decid edly instructive. Look up the word riches, for Instance, and note what it says. To be rich does not mean to have everything one wants. There Is al ways the unattainable. Yon will re member the little boy whose parents could ,deny him nothing. He was rich In the sense of having every thing provided for him -that money could buy. But when he demanded the moon, he suddenly felt poor. He couldn’t have his every wish grati fied. The parents felt poor. They could not give their spoiled son everything he wanted. No thinking person would expect to get the actu al moon. Its beauty and radiance must suffice. But there are some persons who look upon money as the medium by which they can get other things just as unreasonable. They believe happiness depends on money. Tt must, therefore, be able to get it for them. They do not realize that money and happiness, belong to two totally different realms. Money is a physical thing as distinguished from happiness, which is mental and spi ritual. The amount of money which would comprise riches to some persons sig nifies penury to others. Men have committed suicide because they lost fortunes, although -there still re mained what would be riches to one unaccustomed to the former prodi gality of money. With still enough remaining on which to live and care for a family, which would be riches to some, these men feel crushed by poverty. No one need feel he does not have monetary riches who has enough to supply normal needs of Mongrel Always Hero There was a good dog story from Halifax, Nova Scotia, recently. A settler broke a leg In a blizzard and was freezing to death. He was dis covered by a faithful dog. The dog tore off to’ the nearest cabin and barked for help. The story was com plete In every classic detail. The inmates of the cabin at first refused to pay attention to the dog, so the dog kept barking until they de cided to go Into the storm to see what was the matter. Result: Man Saved by Dog. The nicest touch about the little story was that the correspondent did not fail to state that the hero dog was a mongrel! Judging by stories, both fact and fiction, It Is not per mitted for blooded dogs to be heroes. —Philadelphia Ledger. himself and those dependent upon him.

B y E D W A R D W. P IC K A R D © by Western Newspaper Union. B ernard Ml. B aruch W HILE the senate committee head ed by Senator Gerald P. Nye of North Dakota was still investigating munitions makers and their profits and methods, President Roosevelt named an- other committee charged with the duty of preparing legisla tion that would au thorize the Chief Ex ecutive, in time of war, to assume absolute power over industrial profits, prices and wages and over the op erations of all indus tries. Bernard M. Bar uch, New !fork finan cier who was head of the war indus tries. board, was made chairman of this committee, and Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, former head of the NRA, was selected as Mr. Baruch’s assistant Others on the committee are Secretaries Hull (state), Morgenthau (treasury), Dern (war), and Swanson (nary) ; Under secretary of Agriculture Tngwell, act ing for Secretary Wallace; Assistant Secretary of Labor McGrady, acting for Secretary Perkins; Assistant Sec retary of the Navy Henry Latrobe Roosevelt; Rail Co-ordinator Eastman; Gen. Douglas MacArthur, chief of staff; and Foreign Trade Adviser George N. Peek. The President told newspaper men gathered at" his press conference that “the time has come to take the profit out of war.” He declared that not only the war profits of corpora tions would be under inspection but the wages of individuals as well. He pointed out the disparity between the soldier’s pay of $1 a day and that of the munitions worker at $10 a day, and declared this unequal mobilization, as he called it, had led to the veterans’ demands for a soldiers’ and sailors’ bonus. Legislation will be asked of the new congress meeting In January, Mr. Roosevelt said. He added that he re garded the subject as one of the most important of any to be laid before congress. Tbe President insisted that his move at this time was not prompted by any threat of war. The war horizon, be said, is cloudless. Neither should the proposal be considered one for war preparedness, the President added. Senator Nye and others of his com mittee, fearing this move might pre-, vent the appropriation of funds for the continuance • of their investigation, were rather caustic in their comments on the President’s action. It was pointed out that the entire field of in quiry suggested by the President was covered by the war policies commis sion, appointed under congressional authority three years ago. This com mission made recommendations, but congress took no action. In order that he may aid in han dling expected War department legis lation, General MacArthur is retained as chief of staff indefinitely, by direc tion of the President This does not mean that be will serve another four- year term. A LL Michigan was thrown into mourning by one of the worst disasters that ever occurred in that state. The Hotel Kerns in Lansing, crowded with legislators gathered for a special session of the assembly, was destroyed by an early morning fire, and probably as many as forty per sons were killed by the flames or by leaping to the street or into the Grand river on the bank of which the hotel stood. The exact number of victims may never be known, for the register was burned. At least six members, of the .legislature lost their lives. MTJALANOED abundance” is the D keynote sounded in the program offered by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace In his annual report.' Con vinced that agriculture should be brought under permanent federal con trol, be will ask congress for drastic new legislation. This will include broad amendments to the AAA, great exten sion of the grain futures act and pas sage of the Tugwell food and drugs bill. While ‘he insists on continuance of crop control, Mr. Wallace advises against falling into the pit of "scarc ity economics” ; nevertheless, he de fends the working of the AAA reduc tion schemes to date. He sees “the end of our period of emergency adjustments, of drastic re duction In farm output coming into view.” Hereafter, the task may In-, elude adjustment of production to a rising demand, he says. To this end, as a safeguard against the effects of crop failure In the future, the secretary de velops his proposal for “an, ever nor mal granary.” Larger reserves against crop failure would be maintained. These, he believes, should remain in the control of the farmers, tbrongh storage and government, loan arrange ments, coupled with an obligation' to participate in continued crop adjust ments. By co-ordinating storage with crop adjustments, farmers would have the beginning Of means to control live stock production cycles, it is held.; The secretary defends the proposed amendments to the AAA on the ground that they rfeally did not enlarge his powers but merely "sought to remove uncertainties in the law and to specify more clearly the secretary’s powers to enforce these marketing agreements against the recalcitrant few.” The Tugwell amendment to the food and drug act is defended by Wallace on the ground that it would remove from the government “the formidable obligation of proving that claims made In the labeling of patent medicines are both false and fraudulent” and pro vide more drastic penalties, including jail terms for violations. m a Bogoljub Yeftitch «»T’M IN. I have more than enough I votes to win,” said Representa tive Joseph W. Byrns of Tennessee; and this ended the contest for the speakership of the next house, for a count of noses proved Mr. Byrns was right The President remained neutral, and one after another the state delega tions fell into line' for the Tennessean. There remained the race for the floor leadership which was sought by a number of men, including John W. Mc Cormack of Massachusetts, John E. Rankin of Mississippi, James M. Mead and John J. O’Connor of New York, William W. Arnold and Adolph J. Sab- ath of Illinois. T NVITED by the League of Nations * council to name the commander ot the international force to preserve or der In the Saar before and during the plebiscite of January 13. the British government gave the post to Maj. J. E. S. Brind, a soldier of considerable experience in and since the World war. The British contingent will com prise 1,500 men. The Italians will num ber 1,300, the Swedes 250, and the Dutch 250, bringing the total to 3,300. The governing body of the Saar Is authorized to exempt “the interna tional force,” as it is called, from “all responsibility for any acts accom plished in the performance of its mis sion and confer on itself, In case of need, power of requisition, accommoda tion, maintenance, and transport of said force.” FOR a few days it seemed that Jugo slavia was determined to provoke another European war as an aftermath of the assassination of King Alexander. Bogoljub Yeftitch, Ju goslav foreign minis ter, appeared, before the League of Nations council In Geneva and denounced the govern ment of Hungary as responsible fo r th e Marseilles murder, and his government pressed him to obtain concrete action in re gard to the complaint, At the same time Ju goslavia was deport ing thousands of Hungarians from within its borders. Hungary, denying any responsibility for the killing of Alexander, protested bitterly against the deportations, and was supported by Italy in its position. France stood back of Jugoslavia, as did Czecho slovakia and Rumania. Veftitch told leaders of the inajoi European powers he preferred to with draw the matter, from the hands of the league and deal directly with Hungary rather than accept a mere "platonic’ condemnation of terrorism. “Our moderation has mistakenly been conceived to be weakness,” he asserted. The situation was genuinely threat ening and the representatives of the great powers began to get busy. Pierre Laval, French foreign minister, told Baron Aloisi of Italy about the Serb threat, and a spokesman for the little entente admitted that the Belgrade government might be forced by public opinion to act, unless the council’s ac tion was satisfactory. Then Laval proposed to the league a plan involving an invitation to Hungary to conduct a careful inquiry into the murder of Alexander and to punish anyone found guilty of connection with the crime. This scheme was presented to Hungary and the little entente by CapL Anthony Eden, British lord privy seal, and was accepted by them, to the great relief of the statesmen. Meantime the tenseness of the situ ation was lessened by the sudden'ces sation of deportations of Hungarians from Jugoslavia, which action. It was said was due to the intercession of oth er powers, chiefly Great Britain and France., The Serb government, probab ly realized that its cause at Geneva would be prejudiced by the continua tion of the expulsions. W HEN December 15, war debt in stallment day, came around, It was found that Finland was again the only nation with enough decency to pay. It deposited the amount due, $228,538, In the New York Federal Re serve bank. AU the other debtor; na tions repeated their defaults, and Great Britain rejected a suggestion ,for anoth er conference on the ground that world conditions had not altered since last June and negotiations now would be “useless and unwise.” CONSTITUTIONAL guarantees were suspended by the Cuban govern ment in the provinces of Havana, San ta Clara and Camaguey- in order to cope with threatened uprisings. Au thorities are thus enabled to search homes without warrants; hold prison ers without bringing charges against them and inspect personal mail. Ha- tanzas is the only remaining, province where citizens are assured constitu tional rights, since the guaranties were suspended in Pinar del Rio and Oriente provinces some time ago. The secretary of state In Havana an nounced that “squatters” on some thou sands of acres of land in Oriente pro vince, where a miniature Communist state has been set up, will be evicted. POLAND’S foreign policy was clearly set forth to the press by Prince Radziwill, chairman of the foreign re lations committee of the Polish parlia ment the statement being meant pri marily for the French. The prince said the Franco-Polish- alliance was still the basis of his country’s foreign policy, but France’s lack of considera tion for Poland’s independence and the attitude of French capitalists who re gard Poland as a fit object of exploita tion have developed serious differ ences. Radziwill said Roland wishes to avoid becoming involved in Danubian and Balkan problems and at the same times wishes to be consulted on prob lems directly affecting it, such as the proposed eastern Locarno security pact and questions concerning its relations with Russia, Germany, and the Baltic states. Poland is not the “yes man” of France, and it cannot permit action to be taken in northeastern Europe with out being consulted, Radziwill con tinued. >1 Henry Ford H ENRY FORD believes, as do many others, that recovery can be brought about by reviving industry and creating employment, and be is acting on his belief. The motor magnate announces that he will spend an additional $8,000,000 for further expansion a n d im provement of his com pany’s thousand-acre plant at River Rouge, near Dearborn, Mich. This is in addition to the recent letting of contracts for nearly $12,000,000 for two steel mills and power units for the plant, so the company will spend a total of about $20,000,000 within a period of ten months for the development of the River Rouge plant The new units now under construc tion and the cost of each are the steel finishing plant, $3,460.000; the hot steel strip mill, $6,111,923: the stripper building, for handling ingots, $230,000; new steam and electrical units for the power house $4,599,888; new blast fur naces and foundry equipment, $2,120,- 460, and additional equipment of many kinds, costing $3,144,250, made neces sary by the shift from 24-hour to 16: hour daily production. Evidently Mr. Ford has no fear for the future economic stability of the country. T JNION labor, like President Roose- velt, is heartily in favor of legis lation establishing unemployment in surance, but it proposes, Hirough Pres ident Green of the A. F. of L., that the insurance be financed wholly by a 5 per cent tax on pay rolls. Opposing any direct levy on the workers, Mr. Green says they would pay most of the cost any way. Employers add their cost to prices and employees buy 85 per cent of all goods, he argued. If workers shared the direct cost of in surance, he adds, they would be pay ing twice. Representative Gonnery of Massa chusetts, chairman of the house labor committee, says that sentiment in favor of the 39-hour week measure as a means of, reducing unemployment is increasing. This also is warmly urged by union labor, but the administration seems to think the. time for it has not yet come. At t o r n e y g e n e r a l cum m ings held a four-day crime conference in Washington with some five hundred delegates, and President Roosevelt and Henry L. Stimson made speeches at the opening session. Criminologists, judges, lawyers and sociologists joined the gov ernment officials in devising a program to make the nation more law-abiding. H. J. Anslinger, chief of the narcotic bureau, discussed the recent raids in many large cities In which his agents seized hundreds of dope peddlers, ad dicts and their equipment, and said the raids showed the need of more drastic laws against the dope evlL The mat ter of shady lawyers was taken up and Mayer C. Goldman of New York suggested that private counsel in crim inal cases be abolished and a system of state defense lawyers be established. Treasury officials urged that their po lice authority against bootlegging should be broadened., These and many other topics were thoroughly dismissed. BOLIVIA, badly beaten by Paraguay, announced her acceptance of the League of Nations’ plan for ending the war. In the Ghaco; and. although at the same time ah order was issued for a general mobilization of ail the. coun try’s available man power, it was be lieved the long, struggle was near its ending. The league plan provides for an arm istice while a neutral international commission works out details of a set tlement of grievances. Paraguay has not acted finally on the league’s offer. FOES IN BALKANS AGREE ON PEACE War Peril Ended by League of Nations. Gepeva--W ar threats In central Eu rope were dissipated when Jugoslavia and Hungary bowed to the League of Nations, whose council unanimously adopted a resolution “deploring” the crimes at Marseilles. The action of the two opposing na tions in accepting the resolution was viewed as a league victory in,the in terests of peace. Central Europe had been threatened by war as a direct result of the assassination October 9 of the Jugoslav king, Alexander. Hungary, in diplomatic terms, is re quested to take “punitive action against any authorities whose culpabilities have been established” and “communi cate to the council the measures which It takes to this effect" This action was sought by Jugoslavia. Until the very last the diplomats’ interest In the Jugoslav-Hungarian dis pute was breathlessly maintained. Re lief was expressed on all sides when the Hungarian representative received the urgent instructions: “Vote for the resolution.” The diplomats said the resolution in dicates a distinct triumph for concili ation and proves that statesmen may make concessions to the league when they might find it difficult to make them directly to governments. In this Instance Jugoslavia was seen as get ting adequate satisfaction, while Hun gary’s honor remains unsullied. The British regard the agreement, sponsored by Capt. Anthony Eden, as showing the constructive value of An glo-French co-operation. The resolution insisted that all re sponsible for the killing of Alexander and F.oreign Minister Louis Barthou of France be punished, recalled that it is the duty of every state neither to encourage nor tolerate In its territory "any terrorist activity with a political purpose,” and that all nations must repress acts of this nature “and lend assistance to governments which re quest it.” The council took the view that the rules of international law concerning the repression of terrorist activity were not sufficiently precise to guar antee international co-operation in the matter. It decided to set up a com mittee of experts to study the ques tion, the committee to be composed of eleven members. The committee in cludes Hungary, but not Jugoslavia.

Borah of Idaho, sometimes denominat ed as a progres- FletdlCT sive Republican, has Will Stick sought out the front pages of newspapers again with a demand for reorganiza tion of the Republican party. He called for the .resignation of Henry P. Fletcher as chairman of the Republican national committee and was promptly met with a digni fied declaration from the chairman that he had no intention of resigning and, further, that he intended to see what could be done with the present carcass of the elephant that was trod upon so badly in the last two elections. That declaration would appear to have been enough to stop the Idaho senator temporarily, but it failed and he was back again on the front page with another press statement to the general effect that the present leader ship in the Republican party would -amount to little more than a huge joke unless there w ere. reorganization, re suscitation or reincarnation or some: thing else. It seems,'however,, that the second blast by Senator Borah was more than an ordinary dose because it aroused Senator James Couzens of Michigan, another individual who en joys labeling himself as a progressive Republican. The Midiigan senator fired back at Senator Borah a chal lenge that the Idaho senator write something equivalent to a new pro gram for the Republican party. Sena tor Couzens said he was not at all convinced that Senator Borah could point the, way for revivification of the elephant’s carcass and gave every indi cation, according to. the .view taken here, that he believed the one. success ful course for the party lay in offering a constructive program rather than constant criticism of the New Deal without offering substitute for it While Mr. Borah’s demand for Mr. Fletcher’s resignation caused some comment it did not stir the waters like Mr. Fletcher’s reply. The chairman promptly showed fight. He said that to step out at this time would “plunge the party organization into confusion." He pointed out that there is machinery by which changes can be accomplished In the party organization through' the calling of a special meeting of the na tional committee. This can be done on petition of sixteen members from six teen different states and Mr. Fletcher suggested to Mr. Borah that if leader ship changes were tiesired, the way was open to him. It was in respect of this suggestion that Senator Conzens took a crack at Senator Borah by saying that if Mr. Borah had real plans, Mr. Fletcher should resign-and- the ' chairmanship should be offered to Mr. Borah so that his constructive ideas could be carried out. Charles D. Hilles and Mark L. Requa, Republican national committeemen from New York and California re spectively, also had their ire bestirred by Senator Borah while- the row be tween Borah and Fletcher was pro ceeding. Neither .of these men took much stock in the Borah proposal be cause they never have viewed things as the Idaho senator sees them. * • » The controversy between the several outstanding individuals over what to ■ do or not to do Says Party about the Repub- Can Come Back Iican party is con sidered by many political writers in Washington and by many political leaders as being lit tle more than a flash in the pan and unlikely to lead to solution of the prob lem faced by the "party which went down to such ignominious defeat in two successive elections. It has been Chair man Fletcher’s, contention that despite the licking the party took, it can come back and be as strong a force in Amer ican politics as it ever has been, but he hinted that nothing could be done until the party organization and rank and file of the voters' get over the shock. This was the condition which confronted the Democratic party after the defeat of James M. Cox. the Demo cratic candidate In 1920, and it was paralleled in 1928 when President Hoover defeated Alfred E. Smith of New York. Yet the fact remains the Democratic party came back and is now in absolute control of the govern ment machinery. Astute observers here generally, I believe, hold the view that some changes may be necessary in party policies. This view possibly was expressed better by Representative Fish, a New York Republican, than by anyone else when he said that it was apparent there should be an at tempt made “to liberalize and to hu manize” Republican party policies. The problem confronting the party therefore, is looked upon as requiring something more thqpfront page criti cism; Indeed, I hear many expressions to the effect that ajreriod-of quiet con sideration by party leaders may do more to develop a constructive pro gram than all of the bushwhacking and gun toting by any of the regulars or ir regulars can do. Ip other words, to sum up the picture as I hear the com elusions stated here, it would appear to be a- time for the party leaders to brush away cobwebs and look upon con ditions as they exist rather than to allow personal animosity and personal ambition to overcome solid judgment So as the Republican row is seen to day the jaw is what kind of an ani mal can be made out ot „ elephant It may be a h i , 11L erinarian or a face-limi H stretching job.

He surasM that the task ahead may include ad- justment of production to a rising fc mand and that, it was pointed our, will certainly not require crop reduction exclusively. The fundamental pn,. pose, according to the secretary's out- line, is to establish a balance behveen production and consumption, and In de scribing this program he coined lie new phrase “balanced abundance." Ua- less this is done, Mr. Wallace declared, there is danger of the country “faffing into a pit of scarcity economics." “In 1933,” the report continues, “ag riculture had enormous surpluses of wheat, cotton, tobacco, and hog prod ucts, which had accumulated as a re sult of war-time expansion, economic nationalism, strangled foreign trade, and reduced domestic consumption. Prices 'had fallen to 50 per cent of their 1929 level. Merely to avert farm ruin it was imperative to eliminate the surpluses. “As matters then Sood, ptotacta control seemed to he synonymous with crop production. But It was never contemplated that reduction once start ed should be continued indeSniteiy. It would be a serious mistake to reduce farm production constandy. Snch a course would raise prices temporarily, but would restrict consumption, tad create new farm competition at has and abroad.” Mr. Wallace added that it is neces sary to recognize that crop control in volves a restriction of agricultural pro duction and declared that the only al ternative is a recovery in agricultural exports. . „. “This can be soundly achieved, * said, “only on a reciprocal basis « this country importing goods In » turn.”The secretary gave it as his (. that immense benefits would accrue f increased international trade. > not be a world policy, according analysis, for each nation to home,” but the secretary did no - in his analysis what commodity thought proper for Iniportatio . with respect to this phase o - that there was much comment devei oped In Washington. , .

CHAPTER VI—Continued —9— At breakfast next morning Hays raved about the fact that Smoky had jot been there for over two weeks. “Tilings air cornin’ to a head,” he concluded, gloomily. •'Reckon they ought to have made pvo drives by now,” rejoined Happy jack. “I rid down the valley yestiddy elclit or ten miles. Cattle thinned out, boss. Any cowboy with eyes in the back of his head would be on to us by BOW." •'Shore. Haven’t I kept them work- (a' up here. But IVe no control over this hossback ridin' after hounds. Pretty soon Herrick will be chasin’ down Limestone way. Then the fire’ll be out.” “Hank, he wouldn’t know the differ ence,” interposed Jim. “Aw, I don't care,” replied Hays, harshly, and that finality intimated Buch. "Wait till Smoky’s outfit shows Op!” Every morning when Jim rode down to the corrals he fell back under the spell of something sweeter than wine, the sunny hours .with the sage flat ahead, the fragrant pines, the baying hounds, and always out In front this bright-haired girl, were vastly differ ent from the dark hours when the day was done. Kothing could be truer Ilian that this utterly incongruous and bitterly sweet situation could not last In moments of humility, engendered by the higher emotions this girl aroused, Jim clasped to his breast the fact that he was protecting her from worse men. Barnes and another of the cowboys had taken the horses for the Herricks op to the house. To Jim’s honest dismay he espied Helen riding ahead, with the cowboys behind leading her brother’s mount. Herrick was not coming. The hounds bounded and cavorted about her, keen for the chase. Miss Herrick looked far less proud and unattainable in the boy’s riding garb she had adopted. Moreover, It had transformed her, yet her fem ininity appeared more provokingly manifest than ever. Barnes turned Herrick’s horse over to a stable boy, and with his com panion fell in behind Miss Herrick, who rode out upon the valley. Jim re joined them, and they trotted their horses together. “Why didn’t Herrick come?” asked Jim. “He was rowin’ with Heeseman,” re plied Barnes, soberly. “You don’t say! What about?” "Reckon I don’t know. They shet »p as I come along,” returned the cowboy. “But I seen enough to calki- Iate somethin’s wrong. They was on the porch. Herrick looked sort of peevish. He didn’t want his sister to So huntin’ today, I heard theL An’ ahe said right pert she was goin’.” “How did Heeseman look?” went on Jim, ponderingly. Something was up. For two days Heeseman’s outfit had been through hauling timber. “Dead serious, like he was tryin’ to Persuade the boss to somethin’.” •Tim lapsed into silence. What turn would affairs take next? It was get ting warm around Star ranch. Each day the hunters had to ride farther afield to find game. Jack- Mbbit chasing had grown too tame for Miss Herrick. Three or four miles out the bounds Jamped a coyote from a clump of sage brush. The cowboys took the lead, then came Miss Herrick, while Jim brought up the rear. It was a long, gradual ascent Pp to an open ridge. Here the hounds jumped a. herd of deer. Despite the yelling of the cow boys they dashed up the ridge with a chorus of wild yelps and barks. They *11 passed out of bearing. Jlm caught up with Miss Herrick, waited in an open spot among the Pines. Flushed, and disheveled, with ber sombrero on the pommel, panting from the arduous ride, she made a dis tracting picture. “Hunt’s off for us, Miss Herrick," •aid Jim. "Too bad I But wasn't—It fun—while It lasted?” she replied gayly. “Let us f«st the horses. I’m out of breath my- Bfil f.” Jim dismounted to tighten his saddle •Inches. “Wall, take a look at my cinches,” •he said. “May I ask you not to call me Wall? I must remind you I’m no butler.” “Pray pardon me,” she rejoined, In •urprise. “I presume I should address fov as Mr. Wall?” “Yes, If you’re too stuck up to call **» Jim* be said. ‘t ZANE GREY OopyrlsliL-WlJUService. She lifted her chin and deigned no reply. And that infuriated him. “While I’m at it I’ll tell you this, too,” he went on doggedly. “You must not ride around alone again. I’ve had no chance to speak with you. But I told your brother. He laughed In my fact He Is a fool.” “Mr. Wall, I will not listen to such talk,” she spoke up, spiritedly. "Oh, yes, you will,” he Hashed, strid ing over to her horse. “You’re not in an English drawing room ‘ now. Con fronted by a disrespectful butler. You’re In Dtah, girl. And I am Jim Wall.” "That last is obvious, to my regret,” she returned coldly. “Will you please be so kind as to tighten my cinches? It will be the last service I shall re quire of you.” “Thank the Lord!” ejaculated Jim, In grim heartiness. “All the same I’ll tell you. If you were an American tenderfoot, it wouldn’t be hard to make you understand. If you were western, you would not need to be told. But as an English lady of quality, who thinks her class, will protect her anywhere, you need to be jarred. . . . It's wrong for you to ride around alone on this range like any wild tomboy.” "Why?” “Some of these men might kidnap you for ransom.” “Nonsense,” she retorted, contemptu ously. “What do .you say, Miss Herrick, when I tell you that Hank Hays has been watching you from the ridges, riding the lonely trails, biding his chance to waylay you?” She paled at that “I -don’t believe it,” she said, pres ently. “And you’ll go on riding alone when It suits your royal fancy?” he queried witheringly. . “That is no longer any concern of yours,” she replied, at last stung. “But & “But I Certainly Shall Ride When and How I Pleaeei” I certainly shall ride when and how I “Then you’re as big a fool as your brother,” declared Jim hotly. “Here I am, the only man in this Star outfit with honesty enough to tell you the truth. And I get insulted and fired for my pains.” She sat her horse mute. Jim laid a strong hand on her pommel and shook it. “Your saddle’s loose. Will you oblige me by getting off?”. “I can ride it back,” she rejoined, Icily. “But your blanket, will slip out. The saddle might turn with you.” She removed her foot from the stir rup. “Tighten the cinches then—and hurry.” Jim complied expeditiously enough, but In doing so he accidentally touched her. Something, like fire shot through him at the contact Under its stimulus he looked up to say a few more words to her, words to mitigate his offense and protest his sincerity. But they were never uttered. She had bent over to fasten a lace of her boot, and when Jim raised his head it was to find his face scarcely a foot from her red lips. Without a thought, In a flash, he kissed them, and then drew back, stricken. “How dare you!” she cried, in in credulous amazement and anger. “It just happened. I—I don’t know—” She swung her leather quirt and struck him across the mouth. The blood spurted. The leap of Jim’s fury was as swift. He half intercepted a second blow, which stung his neck, and snatching the quirt from her hand he flung it away. Then his iron clutch fastened in her- blouse. One lunge, dragged her out of the saddle. He wrapped his other arm around her and bent her back so quickly that when she began a furious struggle it was too late. His mouth bard pressed on hers stilled any but smothered cries. There was a moment’s wrestling. She was no weakling, but she was In the arms of a maddfened giant Repeatedly he kissed her lips, long, hard, passionate kisses. Suddenlyshecollapsed heavily in his arms The stock of Ihat--nIts mean ing—pierced Wall with something in finitely more imperious and staggering than bitter wrath. He let go of her. There was blood on her lips and cheeks; otherwise her face was like alabaster. “I think I must have been In love wlfh you—and wanted to protect you —from men worse than myself,” he went on, huskily. "I hope this will be a lesson to you. , . . Your brother was crazy to come here—crazier to let you come. Go home! Go before It’s too late. Make him go. He will be ruined shortly.” She wiped the blood from her cheeks, and then shudderingly from her lips. “You—did that—to frighten me?” she presently whispered, in horror, yet as if fascinated by something looming. “Get, on your horse and ride ahead of me,” he ordered, curtly. “Now, Miss Helen Herrick, one last word: Don’t tell your brother what I did to you tilt after I’m gone. . . . If you do I'll kill him I” She left a glove lying on the ground. Jim made no effort to recover it. His horse had grazed a few paces away, and when he had reached him and mounted Aliss Herrick was in her sad dle. Jim let her get a few rods In advance before he followed. The excess of his emotion wore off, leaving him composed, and sternly glad the issue had developed as it had. The situation had become intolerable for him. It mocked him that he had actually desired to appear well In the eyes of this girl. How ridiculous that one of a robber gang should be vain! But he was not conscious that being a thief made any difference In a man’s feeling about women. He knew that he could not command respect or love; but that in no wise Inhibited his own feelings. Strange, he had indeed fallen In love with Helen Herrick. She rode on slowly down the ridge without looking to right or left Her gaze appeared to be lowered. The ranch-house came in sight. Miss Herrick saw it and halted a moment, to. let Jim catch up with her. “Can you be gentleman' enough to tell me the truth?” she askeA “I have not lied to you,” replied Jim. “That—that first time you kissed me —was it honestly unpremeditated?” "Miss Herrick, I don’t know what to swear by. But, yes, I have. My mother! I swear by memory of her that I never dreamed of insulting you —I looked up. There your face was close. Your lips red! And I .kissed them.” They went on for perhaps ten paces, as far as the road, before she spoke again. “I believe you,” she said, with out a tremor of the rich, low voice, though it was evident her emotion was deeply stirred. “Your action was in excusable, unforgivable. But I should not have struck you with the whip. . . . That, and your passion to frighten me, perhaps Justified your brutality. . . . I shall not tell. . . . Don’t leave Star ranch.” For an instant Jim felt as if he were upon the verge of a precipice. But her change from revulsion to In scrutable generosity called to all that was good within him. "Miss Herrick, I’m sorry, but I must leave,” he replied, sadly. 4Tm only a wandering rider—a gunslinger and—a member of a gang of robbers. And I was mad enough to fall In love with you. . . . Forget it . . . Go home to England. But if you won’t do that—never ride out alone again.” He spurred his horse and galloped down the road, by the barns and across the court, into the lane that led along the brook Suddenly he espied a com pact group of mounted riders coming down the road beyond Hays’ cabin. They bestrode bays and blacks, and there was that about them which drew Jim sharply up with a fiery thrill. Smoky’s outfit! Hays stood out In front of the cabin, bareheaded, his legs spread apart as if to anchor himself solidly, his hands at his hips, his sandy hair standing up ruffled like a mane. "Hub! The boss Isn’t mad. Ok no!” soliloquized Jim. “Small won der. Smoky’s outfit has busted loose, or is going to—Well, now, Fve a huncfi there’s luck in this for me.” . Jim made for the bridge and, cross ing, looked up to see the horses o’ Smoky’s outfit standing, bridles down and the riders up on the porch. Jim mounted the steps. Hank Hays sat upon the bench, bis shaggy head against the wall, his pale eye 3 blazing at the row of men lean ing on the porch rail. Smoky was lighting a cigarette, not in the least perturbed, but his eyes had a hard, steely gleam. Brad Lincoln sat back on the rail, eyeing the chief with a sardonic grin. Mac appeared more than usually ghoulish; Bridges and Sparrowhawk Latimer betrayed extreme nervousness. “Hello, men. What’s the mix? Am I in or out?” returned Jim, sharply. “I reckon you’re, in,” replied Slocum. “Hank is the only one thet’s out. . . . Hyar, Jim, ketch this.” He drew a dark green, bundle from a bulging pocket and tossed it to Jim—a large, heavy roll of greenbacks tied with, a buckskin thong. “Yours on the divvy, Jim,” went on Smoky. "Don’t count it now. . There’s a heap of small bills Inside an’ if you untie them hyar there’ll be a mess. But it’s a square divvy to the last dollar.”. “Thet’s a hefty roll, Smoky, for a man to get for nothing,” observed Jin* dubiously.TO UB' OOfiiTlNUBft IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S U N D A Y ICHOOL Lesson (By REV.

In working out his purpose he sets down a definite thesis In chapter I, verses 1-4, which is that eternal life was man ifested to credible witnesses—John and his fellow apostles—In the person of Jesus Christ Through the incarnation Jesus Christ has become identified with the human race, so that those who be lieve in him are introduced to the Fa ther, resulting In a vital fellowship. The saved one has fellowship with God, or fellowship in the life eternal. The entire epistle is devoted to the exhibi tion of tests by which one can surely know that he is saved. The lesson unit for today is the culmination of these tests. 1. B elieves’ T h a t Je su s Ie th e C hrist tv. I). Such faith is the proof of regener ation. He not merely believes in the ethics of Jesus, but that the historic Jesus is the Messiah‘of God—the Son of God' come in the flesh. The one lacking this belief is still unregenerate; regardless of his pretensions. Jesus Christ is the giver of eternal life. Yea, he is, in his very essential being, eter nal life. Therefore, the one who be lieves in him as manifest in the flesh is born of God. II. Loves th e C hildren of God (v. I). The one born of God loves those who are born of God. The unfailing test of fellowship with God is that we love those who are born of God. Love for' God shows itself in loving God’s chil dren. ' III. K eeps God’s C om m andm ents (vv. 2, 3). This is filial, not legal obedience. VVe do not keep. God’s commandments in order to become his children, but be cause we possess his nature. Obedi ence is the unfailing proof of the di vine birth. > IV. O vercom es th e W orld (vv. 4, 5). Conflict for the regenerate man is absolutely certain. The world’s ways are opposed to God. By the world is meant all that Is opposed to Godi It Includes all the lust* of the flesh which respond to the enticements of the World. It also Includes Satan, the prince of this world. Tbe one who be lieves that Jesus is the son of God is born of God and has Jesus Christ liv ing in him. Therefore, he overcomes the world, because be has In him one who Is greater than Satan. Faitb in Jesus Christ Is the weapon by means of whicb victory Is realized. The vie* torious life Is the absolute test of be ing a Christian. V. T h e G rounds of C hristian B elief (vv. 6-12). Since victory over the world is se cured by faltb in Jesus as the Son of GodlTt is Important that we know the grounds upon which sucb belief Is based. The believer’s faith rests upon the threefold testimony of the Spirit, the water, and the blood. L The Spirit is the Holy Spirit, the third member of the Godhead. His supreme business is to make Christ real. This he does to the spirit of the believer (Rom. 8:16), and to the world, through the Word of God and through the lives and testimony of believers: 2. The water Is his baptism at the Jordan. By baptism he formally en tered upon his mediatorial work. It was here that the Spirit came upon him in the form of a dove, and that the Father acknowledged him as his Son. 3. The blocd is I hat of the Cross. In the act of baptism be dedicated him self to that task of making full a right eousness for man on the cross of Cal vary. This is doubtless what is meant by “fulfilling all righteousness.” His baptism and the crucifixion, with all that they signified, were proofs that Jesus was the very Son of God. The witness of the cross of Christ is still gripping and saving men. Children a* Teachers The child in the cradle is God’s child. How, then, shall we take this little child ?v We will take him as one who brings a new revelation to us. The children are the great teachers. They tiring a' new revelation of God and his love. Call for Prayer Emergencies call for intense prayer. .Vhen the man becomes the prayer, iothing can resist its'touch.

There is growing up in the Re publican Party a school of thought favorable to competing with the competing with; the Democratic Party' bv pfesetitipg a program and candidate more radical than Demo cracy’s. The name most frequent ly mentioned in this connection is Robert M. LaFolletteof Wisconsin. To us this does not appear to be the logical course for Republican isin. The field for the party of Lincoln does not lie in any con scious endeavor to be fantastic.' To the complete contrary, its field lies in appealing to those who believe that the lamp of experience pro vides the most satisfactory light on the future. ' There is no intention here to sug gest that the?party should be re actionary. Tt can be progressive without being preposterous. It can be conservative without being sTaudpat lb either method or I bought. There is such a thing as liberal conservatism. By its direction since March, of 1 9 3 3. the Ejemocratic Party, or at least that part of it which at this time counts, has assumed that the American future can be carved from idealistic theories or theoietical ideals. Both by tradition and pre sent opportunity, the Republican Earty can be the vehicle of articula tion for those who believe that there is enormous salvage value in a system of 'government which has elevated America to the top rung a- mong nations. The channels are deeply etched for the continuence of two party, rule by majority government in A- merica. The issues are far Clearer than they everwere when the divi sion was on .high, low or no tariff. The new lineup can be conserva tive versus liberal or liberal versus -radical, as you choose to have it.

Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, physician to the world-famous Dionne quin tuplets, after a visit of three weeks has arranged to go back to his home in Ontario. Appeals from New York women who desired to have his services at the birth of their babies, fell on Ueaf ears. •‘Why should they want me. for a doctor?” he queried. There are lots of good ones in New Yoek. No—I’m a country doctor. .I’ve been one for 2 7 years, and I’m go: ing back where I belong, A man’s smartest when he does what he knows best and doesn’t fool around with things he doesn’t know any thing about—don’t you think?” Whether or not he knew it, the country doctor expressed a profound truth and gave a splendid index to his character.
