Some m em bers of the L egislature w ith considerable public support, have been som ew hat exercised pger; the question of achdo^itaa Arivfeffimfc billshayebeenintroducedT tvtjiiF as sem bly to compel the hiring of adult drivers instead of high school boys. The House on Monday night actually passed such a bill fo r one county, w ith proviso th at the county pay the difference betw een th e w age of the high school driver and w hat it m ight take to secure an adult—m eaning, of course, a m an not in high school or above the free high school age lim it of tw enty-one. The argum ent here is th at adults are m ore m ature in judgm ent and m ore careful than the younger drivers. Claude F . Gandy, an officer of the state school commission who |'ias di rect supervision in the m atter of bus transportation, comes to the defense of the high school boys rnd declares th at the percentage of school bus ac cidents has been less w ith student drivers than w ith non-student driv ers. If th e additional cost w ere placed on'the commission, he declares the wages of drivers would am ount to m ore than the entire operating expense now. . - H ere does rise a real question for a state th a t is about to adopt a driv ers’ license law. Will the state adopt r uniform yardstick for w hat is term ed a “ safe” driver, or will it bar the cider high school boys on the ground th at they are not considered capable -enough to operate school buses? If the sta te should bar them from operating-these vehicles will it in effect decree th a t they are still skill ful and dependable enough to turn loose on the highw ay-behind the steering wheel of a vehicle th a t will probably be driven sixty miles an hour? ■ O r m aybe to m ake.it plainer, sh'all we study the highway m ortality statistics and reach a solemn conclu sion-that the age of discretion begins after twenty-one? Can w e better the situation by a m ere substitution of age fo r character,, training and brains?

A big m ajority of the veter ans "cussed” out Hoover because he refused to approve of paym ent o f the bonus and helped defeat him in 1932 and voted fo r R oosevelt' with the expectation th a t he would give them the bonus.

Tbe legislature has passed—if it doesn’t change its m ind—a bill - ou!« Iawing machines of the gam bling variety. The slot machines th a t re turns chewing gum or any certain returns chewing gum or any certain return fo r the investm ent isn’t in.. the class. That sort gives w hat is prom ised. The machine th a t has been the Subject of m uch controver sy and court action here and" there is built to cheat, as we are inform ed and believe. Occasionally it m akes return on the investm ent, enough to enough to encourage the gam bler to keep on. B ut those who know’ the works say th a t type of m achine re tains so much m ore than it gives up th at the operation is highly profi table. States and counties and m uni cipalities have been taxing them , which m eans th a t gam bling was li censed. A fter m uch talk ab o u t; re gulation the legislature passed a bill outlaw ing them and prohibiting their recognition by the imposition of a tax. The m atter would have been simplified by taking th at action, long ago. T hat w on’t stop gam bling,, of course. T here are other forms" of gam bling in door and out th at will go on as usual. Some rather raw gam bling is sanctioned by govern m en t subdivisions and institutions that on occasion sponsor carnivals. But the legislative act will a t least rem ove from public views the slot m achine th at was an all-tim e tem p tation to all and sundry who hold the faith, so constantly refuted, th a t they can g et som ething for nothing. Iacidentally the legislature, in a- bolishing slot machines, has endorsed the prohibition principle, of w hich-5 fact the dry forces w ill'take full, no tice in the present battle for the re turn of legalized liquor. Many earn est and honest people who don’t use liquor nor approve the traffic have come to the belief th at it is better to have som e form of regulation than to rem ain as we are, w ith liquor a- vailable for all who sesk it. The prohibitionists who insist th at licen sing and attem pted regulation fails and th at the S tate can’t afford to be a party to it, may point to the ou • Iawing of the slot machines, in which the principle is recognized—the prin ciple for which they contend —Sta tesville Daily.

BOND RESOLUTION. Whereas, at an adjourned meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Davie County, held at the court house in Mocke- ville, N. C . July 23. 19-33. it was duly re solved by the Board of Commissioners upon the petition of the Board of Educa tion of Davie County, that Davie County assume the payment of a note of $37,750,- 00, executed by the Board of the graded school Trustees of Mocksville, N. C , to the Bank of Davie. Said indebtedness being incurred for the purpose of building and equipping a school building in said grad ed school distrist for the purpose of on* r ating a six months school as required by the Constitution of North Carolina, and that said County assume the payment of twelve notes in the sum of $1,000 OO each, dated September 6, 1922, and executed by Board of Education of Davie County and payable to the Erwin Cotton Mills Com pany, which was incurred as a necessary expense in the operation of a six months school term in Davie County. And whereas the Board of Commission ers by a resolution duly adopted and pass ed on said day of July, 1933, did assume all of said indebtedness, and thereafter on the day of August. 1933. levied a tax sufficient to pav the interest on all of of the indebtness above set forth: And whereas said $37,750.00 note above men tioned is now past due and unpaid and four of the twelve notes due the Erwin Cotton Mills Company are now past due and unpaid. And whereas it is the opinion of the Board of Commissioners of Davie County that it would be for the best interest of Davie County, that all of said indebted ness above mentioned be funded at a low rate of interest, and that serial bonds be issued and the proceeds' derived from the sale thereof be applied to the retirement of all said indebtness. It is now therefore resolved and ordered by the Board: I That funding bonds of Davie County shall be issued for the purpose of paying off a note of $37,750.00 due the Bank of Davie by the Board of Trustees of Mocks ville Graded School District.

Said bonds shall be is sued in an amount not to exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of $52,000.00. It That a tax sufficient to pay the princi pal and interest of the bonds when due shall be annually levied and collected. III A statem ent of the school debt has been filed by the Clerk as required by Section 13 of the County Finance A ctof the Public Laws of NorthCarolina 1927, and the same is open for public inspection. IV That this order shall take effect thirty days after the first publication thereof after final passage, unless in the mean time a petition for its submission to the voters is filed under the County Finance Act, and in that event it shall take effect when approved by the voters of Davie County at an election as provided in said act. V Resolved that Monday, March 18, 1935 at 10:00 a. m.. is hereby fixed as the day and hour for bearing protests against the issuing of said bonds.

CHAPTER X II—Continued — 18'"- Tlic Instinct of the horses had piiiled them to halt behind tlie only rafe spot on the unsafe bank. Jim removed their packs, leaving the sad dles on. W ithout hesitation he poured out all ft the grain, about two quarts for each horse. Lastly he jam m ed the packs uiuler the edge of the boulders and left the horses free to take care of tliemselves. He dreaded the coming hours—the slclit—t Ii o—he knew not what. Jim removed his slicker and folded It Into a Ieng pad. As he crept closer the girl stirred again and spoke. BIe tliounM she asked If he w as there. He placed the slicker in the best avail able place and covered th at w ith the jrler of the two saddle blankets. He pulled the saddle closer. Then he lifted the girl over his lap and covered her Bitii the d rj blanket. He leaned back IiLMinst the stone with her head on his shoulder and his arm support ing her. It was not only th at he w ant ed to keep her dry and w arm : he had to hove her In his arm s while he raited for the nameless terror he anticipated. This was the climax of the storm that had been gathering for days. Out upon the level desert It would have teen serious for travelers; here In this forge It was a maelstrom. Jim did not expect to live to hear it pass away, let he did. And then began the after math of a flood let loose upon such unstable earth. The w aterfall grad ually rose to a thundering, continuous crash. It dominated for a while, until the thousand stream s from above poured over the rim s to deaden all, to completely deafen Jim. A sheet of water, sliding over the rock, hid the opaque blackness from Jim's eyes. Any moment now a flood would rise over the bank, and when it did Jim meant to climb higher with the girl, to front the hurtling rocks tind slipping sides, and fight till the Vittet end. But many changes as the hours brought, that flood did not rise above the hank. Jim saw the sheet of wa ter fall mid the black space of gorge again. IIe heard the avalanches and the great single bowlders come down, and the furious backlash of the torrent below, and the lessening roar of the waterfall. The time came to Jim, as if he dreamed, when all sounds changed, lessened, faded away, except the pe culiar thrashing of the stream below. And he got to listening for that sound, which occurred only occasionally. For * while the sliding rush of heavy wa ter swept on, suddenly to change into I furious splashing. At length Jim calculated it w as a strong current laden w ith sand, which fit times caused billows to rise and lash their tw isting tips back upon themselves. Long he heard these slowly diminishing, gradually separat ing sounds. The stream s ceased flowing, the slides ceased slipping, the rocks ceased rolling and the w aterfall failed from a thundering to a hollow roar and from that to a softening splash. Ilm Imagined he saw dim stars oiit in a void that seemed to change from black to gray. W as dawn a t hand? Had they been spared? The gurgle of the stream below merged into the dis tant, low rumble of the D irty Devil. Jlm rested there, staring out a t the spectral forms on the opposite wall, thinking thoughts never before Inhab- ltaWs of Ms confused brain. But the sky w as graying, the gorge •wing shape In the gloom, and this Place which had heard a din of hide ous sounds was silent as a grave. At last Jim had to accept a roar- ^lous phenomenon—daw n w as a t hwd. Gently he slipped Helen Into “ e hollow of the saddle. She was "till asleep. His cram ped limbs buck ed under him and excruciating pains *aot through his bones and muscles. In the gray light objects were dis cernible. He could not see to the head 0J 016 ?°rge, where the w aterfall had wunged out from the wall. B ut Si- e"ce meant that it had been surface water, a product of the storm , and It ®'as gone. Beneath the bank ran a channel of fine-ribbed sand w here not **en a puddle showed. On the bank 'he horses stood patiently, except Bay, Md he was nosing around for a blade Ernss that did not exist on the sod den earth. The great slope appeared same and yet not the same. A Jnute acceptance of ultim ate destruc tion hovered over I t • Sunrise found Jim W all topping a 86 of rocky ground miles beyond the Scene of his night vigil. Again he fol- ''eil his sure-footed lead pack horse. The sky was blue, the sun bright warm, and a t the moment It rouned with gold the top of the pur. « butte Jlm had seen tw ice before, appeared close now, rearing a coiv above yellow M d brown ' " I'm was carrying Helen In front of him. Conscious, Irat too spent to speak or move, she lay back on his arm and w atched him. There had been a trail along here once, as w as proved by a depressed line on the gravelly earth. W hen JIm surm ounted this barren divide he sud denly w as confronted by an am azing and marvelous spectacle. “Blue valley!” he ejaculated. “Blue valley I . . . Helen, we’re ont of the brakes! . . . Safe! Men live here.” She heard him, for she smiled up Into his face, glad for his sake, but In her exhaustion beyond caring for her own. There w as no sign of habitation, nor any smoke. B ut Jim knew this was Blue valley. It w as long, perhaps fif teen miles, and .probably the farm s were located a t the head, where Irri gation had been possible. How could even pioneers utilize that ferocious river? Jim followed the lead pack horse down into gumbo mud. The floor of the valley supported a mass of foliage besides the stately cottonwoods. Antf a t every step a horse's hoof sank deep, to come forth with a huge cake of mud. A t midday Jim passed deserted cab ins, some on one side of the river, some on the other. They did not ap pear so old, yet they were not new. Had Blue valley been abandoned? Ji<n w as convinced it could not be so. But when he espied a deserted church, with vacant eye-like windows, then his heart sank; Helen m ust have rest, care, food. He w as at the end of his resources. An hour later he toiled past a shack built of logs and stones, and adjoin ing a dugout, set Into the hill. People had lived there once, but long ago. Jim ts last hope fled. He w as still far from the head of the valley, but Jim Hurried On to the Porch and Laid Helen on the Bed. apparently he had left the zone of hab itation behind. The afternoon waned. The horses plodded on, slow er and slower, wear ing to exhaustion. Helen w as a dead weight. Despair had seized upon him when he turned a yellow corner be tw een the slope and the cottonwoods, to be confronted by a wide pasture at the end of which a log cabin nestled among cottonwoods. A column of blue smoke rose lazily against the foliage. The horses labored out of the mud to higher ground. Jim rode up to the cabin. Never In all his life had he been so glad to smell smoke, to see a garden, to hear a dog bark. His ever- qtilck eye caught sight of a m an who had evidently been watching, for he stepped out on the porch, rifle in band. Jim kept on to the barred gate. There were flowers in the yard and vines on the cabin—proof of fem inine hands. And he saw a bed on the porch. “Hello,” he shouted, as he got oft carefully, needing both hands to han dle Helen. “Hullo, yourself,” called the man, who w as apparently curious, but not unfriendly. Then as Jim let down a bar of the gate w ith his foot, this resident of Blue valley leaned his rifle against the wall and called to some one within. CHAPTER XIII JIm hurried on to the porch and laid Helen on the bed. She was so ex hausted th at she could not speak, but she smiled a t Jim . H er plight was evi dent. Then Jim straightened up to look a t the man. His sw ift gaze, never so penetrating, fell upon a sturdy Individual of mid dle age—a typical pioneer, still-faced and bearded. The Instant Jim looked Into the blue eyes, mildly curious, he knew th at whoever the man was he had not heard of the abduction of H errick’s sister. “Howdy, stranger.” “My nam e's W all," said Jlm In reply, slowly seeking for words. “Mine’s Tasker. W har you from ?” “D uiango. . . . My—my wife and I got lost. She wasn’t strong. She gave o u t Tm afraid she's In bad shape.” “She shore looks bad. B ut the Lord ts good. It’s only she’s tuckered o u t” “W hat place Is this?” “Blue valley. Tve stuck it out. But FU be glvin* op soon. No use tryin to fight tbet D irty DevU river. Five years ago there w as eighty people Uv- 1b’ byar. Blue valley has a story, frI“One Pd be glad to hear,” inter rupted Jim . “W in you help me? I have money and can #ay yon- “ Stay an’ welcome, friend. An keep your money. Me an’ my women folks ask nothin’ fer good will tow ard thos* In need.” “Thank you ” Jim replied, huskily. “W ill you call them to look after my— my wife?” Helen was staring up a t JIm w ith wondering, troubled eyes. “Is everything all right?” she asked, faintly. “Yes, If to find friends an* care Is that,” replied the rancher, kindly. Then he stepped to the door to call within. “Mary, this rider w as not alone. It was his wife he w as car- ryin’. They got lost In the brakes an* she gave out. We m ust take them In.” T hat night, after the good ranchers assured Jim th at Helen was just worn out Jim 'w ent to sleep nnder the cot tonwoods and never moved for seven teen hours. Helen sat up the second day, w hite and shaky indeed but recovering with a promise that augured well. H er eyes hung upon Jim with a mute observ ance. Next morning while the women were a t work in the fields and Tasker w as away somewhere Jim approached Helen on the porch. H er hair, once again under care, shone like burnished gold. “Well, you look wonderful this morn ing,” he said. “We must begin to think of getting away.” “Oh, I'm able to s ta rt" “We m ustn’t overdo it. Tomorrow, perhaps. And then if we’re lucky, in three days you’ll be back a t Star ranch. . . . And I—” His evident depression, as he broke off, checked her vivid gladness. “You will never go back to—to your old life?” she questioned quickly. “No, so help me, God! This I owe to you alone, Helen. It will be pos sible now for me even to be happy. B ut enough of myself. I have traded two of the horses for Tasker’s light wagon. I will take you to the stage line and soon you will be a t Grand Junction.” Jim ceased. H er hands slipped from her eyes, to expose them wide, filmed w ith tears, through which shone that which made him flee. “W ait—please w ait!” she called after him, as he made with giant strides for the gate. B ut he did not go back. In a moonlit hour that night, late, when the good Taskers had gohe to well-earned rest, Jim heard his name called. He ran with swift, noiseless feet to Helen's bedside. “You did not come back,” she whis pered. “I cannot sleep. . . . There is something I—w ant to say.” He sat down upon the bedside and clasped her hand in his. “Is your real name Jim W all?” sh« asked, with more composure. “No. I will tell it if you wish." “Are you a free man?” "Free. W hat do you mean? res, free—of course!” “You called me spur—your wife to these kind people.” “I thought that best. They would ba less curious.” “I was not offended—and I under stood. . . . I w ant you to go back to S tar ranch with me.” “You ask me—th at!” he exclaimed incredulously. “Yes, I do.” “B ut you will be perfectly safe. Some one will drive you from Grand Junction.” “Perhaps. Only I’ll never feel safe again—unless you are near. I’ve had too great a shock, Jim . I suppose one of your western girls could have stood this adventure. B ut this w as my first rough experience. It w as a—a little too much.” ' "I can never go back to Star ranch,** he replied, gravely. “W hy not? Because you are—yon w ere a member of a robber gang? I had an ancestor who was a robber baron.” “That’s not the reason,” he said. “W hat is it—then?” “If I leave you now—soon as I've placed you in good hands—I can ride off In peace—go to Arizona, or some w here and be a cowboy—and be happy In the memory of having served you and loved you—and through that hav ing turned my back on the old life. . . . But if I w ent back to Star ranch —to see you ,every day—to—to—” •‘To ride with me,” she interfered, softly. “Yes—to ride with you,” he went on hoarsely. “That’d be like w hat you called your rough experience—a little too much. It would be terribly too much. I’m only hum an.” “F aint heart never won fair Iady,** she whispered, averting her face and w ithdraw ing her hand. “Jim, I believe if I were yon, I’d risk It.” Jim gazed down at the clear-cut profile, a t the shadowed eyes, hair sil vered In the moonlight; then, stricken and mute, he rushed away. Before dawn Jim had beaten his vain and exalted consciousness Into a conviction th at the heaven Helen hint ed a t for him w as the generosity of a woman’s h e art She conld not yet be wholly herself. He m ust not take ad vantage of th a t B ut to reassure her he decided he would conduct her to Star ranch, careful never to reopen th at delicate and impossible subject and after she w as safely there and all was well he would ride away In the night, letting bis silence speak his farewell. A t sunrise JIm acquainted Tasker w ith his desire to leave for Torrey. At breakfast and In the bustle of departure he was sure Helen felt something aloof and strange In him, and he dared not meet her thoughtful eyes.TO BE CONTINUED. Town I* N arrow M arshall, N.

No spe cial study of tuberculosis in the schools Is w arranted unless a good program based on these two more im portant phases has had consistent promotion. “The school physician m ight detect a few active cases in children, if con ditions allow careful auscultation of the chest and a careful history of ex posure to the Infection. However, many children with demonstrable dis ease may be missed, for a t the time they may be negative to auscultation and give a negative history.” Among the benefits of a school pro gram for childhood tuberculosis un der public health control are the fol lowing : j 1. An appreciable number of chil dren are found in need of treatm ent, and adults w ith active tuberculosis are discovered. 2. Fam ilies who are not utilizing regular medical supervision are giv en occasion to choose a physician for this prevention service. 3. Chiildren, apparently well, whose parents have taken m eager steps to correct overfatigue, dietary errors, neglected teeth and other defects, have therein a rather spectacular reason for correcting these general health hazards before symptoms of tuberculosis have brought a belated warning. 4. Physicians are aided in increas ing their function In preventive medi cine through the reference to them of such considerable groups of children who are apparently well but wh give positive reaction to the tuberculin te s t 5.

Only in the most severe cold spells will the lake de velop more than skim ice. Farm er Dell’s idea, as he later admitted, was to fill the radiator of his automobile with Lake Seneca w ater, and save the cost of pur chasing non-freezing agents.

N ear the center and the lower half of the orb, he said, the surface is smoother and a darker green. This is caused by the setting sun and shad ows cast by mountains.

TRUE GHOST STORIES D ■ ■ B y F a m o u s P e o p le Copyright by Public Ledger, Inc. WNU Service. By IRVING BERLIN Famous Composer A NLY the person who suffers from insomnia knows the ravages and terrors of the still night hours before the dawn of day. Through the night lilting tunes and haunting melodies come to Irving Ber lin, the famous composer; but sleep eludes him. “Once during a hot summer night,” Mr. Berlin related, “I w as staying at a small Broadway hotel during the production of one of my first musical comedies. “Tired out from the work of re hearsal, I could have fallen into a light sleep, but I was disturbed by the snoring of the man in the next room. I paced the floor. The snoring grew louder and weirder. It was un canny. At four o'clock it stopped, and I fell asleep for a few minutes, only to be awakened again by the regular ity of the harsh notes. I slept by fits ana starts. “At six o’clock I remember I was awake. “Frantically, I walked into the hall. The snoring man’s door was open. I pushed aside the ventilating screen. An empty white-rock bottle caught my eye. I picked it up and, with one blow, brought it down with revenge upon the man’s head. It shattered into hundreds of pieces. Blood trickled down the m an’s face. This was horrible. "The next thing I knew a hand was grasping my arm. I could feel it, but could not see i t W as it the dead man’s ghost? I tried hard to visualize It— was it the hand of a spirit detective? “I reached up to push the hand away. “ ‘W ake up,’ roared a bellboy, who was tugging at my arm. ‘You left a call for seven o’clock. Hope yon had a nice night’s sleep,’ he added, jaunt ily. ’“ The man In the next room has complained that he dreamed he heard the noise of some one walking back and forth, back and forth, all night. Hope you didn’t hear anything queer.’ ” • * * By JOAN CRAWFORD Motion Picture Actress « Q IN C E childhood, I have been O afraid of darkness. It is a fear which embodies nothing definite; but complete darkness terrifies me. Gmse- quently, I always leave a dim light ourning in the dressing room which opens from my bedroom,” said Joan Crawford. “A short time ago I had an amaz ing experience. One nlglit at eleven o’clock this lamp flickered fitfully, al most going out completely and then burning again. I paid little attention to it, thinking something was wrong w ith the current. When the same tiling happened the next night, at the same hours, eleven and twelve, I called in an electrician to test the wiring at the house, and of the lamp. Nothing wrong was found. “On the third night we stayed home just to watch the lights. We turned them on all over the house, at eleven o’clock, but that in the dressing room behaved in the same peculiar fashion. I did not w ant to go out to dance or sing. On the fourth night, I moveo from my room to one of the guest rooms, but because of my silly fear of the dark, which I know psychologists would say I should have overcome In my childhood, I left a light burning in the hall outside my room. At eleven o’clock that light began to flicker and a few minutes before twelve, it went out entirely. We were completely mys tified. “The next morning I received a wire from New York telling me that one ot my oldest friends, a woman who had been very kind to me In the early days of my career, had died at mid night the night before. “The telegram stated that four nights before my friend had been tak en to the hospital for an emergency operation, th at she had been operated on approximately a t eleven o’clock, and that she had hovered between life and death during the period when I had trouble with my dressing room lamp. “My lights went back to their usual steady behavior after that fourth n ig h t I can’t explain it Perhaps there w as something defective in the current—perhaps n o t” The M ason and Dixie Line The Mason and Dixie Line was the name given to the boundary between two American states, M aryland and Pennsylvania j the name was derived from the two English astronomers, Mason and Dixon, who surveyed the boundary In 1763.

Lesson for March 10 PETER PREACHES TO GENTILES LESSON TEXT—Acts 10:1-11:18.GOLDEN TEXT—Of a truth I perceive God ta no respecter of persons: but in every nation he that feareth him, and vyorketh righteousness, is ac cepted with him. Acts 10:?4b, "Y PRIMARY TOPIC—Peter Leariii-- Tiiat God Loves Everybody.JUNIOR TOPIC—Peter !,earns Something New. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—The Gospel for All.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Overcoming Racial and National Prej udices. The missionary program of tlie church having broadened to include tlie Sam aritans in Philip's preaching in Samaria, we see in this lesson the pro gram still widening and embracing the Gentiles. Through the Convei-Sion of Cornelius, the middle wall of par tition was broken down (Eph. 2:14). I. The Man Cornelius (10:1, 2). 1. His official position (v. I). He was a centurion, a Roman officer over a company of one hundred soldiers. 2. His character (v. 2). a. “A de vout man.” b. A benevolent man. c. A praying man. d. Highly respected by his family. The Lord chose Cornelius as the channel of the transition of the gospel to the Gentiles because of his character and position. II. Supernatural Preparation for the Transition of the Gospel to the Gentiles (10:3-35). In order to bring this about, ob serve : 1. Two visions were given. a. The vision of Cornelius (vv. 3-8). W hile engaged in prayer, an'angel of God instructed him to send to .Toiipa for Peter, who wopld tell him wliat to do. Cornelius sent at once for Peter. b. Tlie vision of Peter (vv. 9-10). While Peter was praying (v. 9) lie saw a certain vessel containing clean and unclean animals let down from heaven, and heard the command. “Rise. I’eter; kill, and e a t” Peter protested that lie had never eaten any unclean tiling. God replied, “W liat God liath cleansed, that call not thou common.” This ves sel, let down and taken back, indicated that both Jew s and Gentiies were ac cepted on high. 2. A messenger sent from Cornelius (vv. 17-22). Peter was greatly per plexed over what he had seen, but not for long, for a messenger from Cor nelius made inquiry, at tlie gate for him. The Spirit informed I’eter of the m atter and bade him go. nothing doubt ing. 3. The meeting of Cornelius and Pe ter (vv. 23-33). a. Peter took six witnesses along (v. 23 Cf. 11:12). In a m atter of so great importance he m ust have wit nesses. b. Cornelius waiting for Peter (v. 24) called together his kinsmen and near friends. c. Cornelius, about to worship Peter (vv. 25, 26), was told by Peter that he himself was but a man. d. The reciprocal explanation (vv. 27-33). Peter explained how God had taken from him his Jewish prejudices. Cornelius explained how God bad in structed him to send for Peter. III. Peter's Sermon (vv. 34-43). 1. The introduction (w . 34, 35) showed that God is no respecter of per sons (see Golden Text). 2. H is discourse (vv. 36-43) touches briefly upon the mission of Jesus, show ing that he was qualified for his work as a Mediator. He then exhibited the work of C hrist a. In his life (w . 36-39). He went about doing good, even casting out demons, as a proof of the fact that God was with him (v. 38). b. In his death (v. 39). The Just suffered for the unjust that be might bring us to God (I Pet. 3:18). c. In his resurrection (vv. 40, 41). God raised him up the third day, show ing openly that Christ was his Son (Rom. 1:4) and that his sacrificial work was satisfactory (Rrfm. 4:25). In this discourse Peter sets forth (I) The basis of salvation—the sac rificial death of Christ (vv. 39, 40) (2) The scope of salvation—“whosoever" (v. 43). -(3) The method appropriat Ing salvation—“believeth on him” (v. 43). IV. The New Pentecost (vv. 44-48) As the gospel was entering upon its w idest embrace the Holy Spirit came in new power. V. Peter Vindicates His M inistry to the Gentiles (11:1-18). Being called to account for visiting and eating with Gentiles Peter’s de fense took the form of logical argu ment, showing how God had set his seal on the work by the miraculous gift of the Spirit Religion of Love Self-confidence is good, and one can do very little without i t but it Is some thing that needs watching, In order that its tendrils do not overgrow ‘the vital’; and one of the things in life which are vital is love, and from love springs happiness.

I f i e d o c to rs s a y . . . Use liquid treatment Here is the soundest advice anyone can give on the subject of laxatives. It is based on medical opinion. We want you to have the benefit of this information no m atter what laxative you may buy: The secret of real relief from consti pation is reduced dosage. You can’t regulate the bowels unless you can regulate the help you give them. That is why doctors use a liquid laxative; the dose can be measured to a drop. Avoid laxatives that you can’t cut down in dosage; especially those that seem to require larger doses than when you began their use. Under the doctor’s care, you usual Iy get a liquid laxative. The right liquid laxative gives the right Iund of help, and the right amount of help. Smaller and smaller doses— until you don’t need any. The liquid laxative generally used is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It contains senna and cascara—natural laxatives that form no habit.

Absolute Zero Tbe Supreme court upholds the P res ident and congress in their legislative and executive ac tion outlawing gold as money In the Qnited States and invalidating "gold clauses” in private contracts. The Suprem e court’s decision is all the more impor tant and gratifying, because every American know s that no considera tion outside the letter of the Con stitution could have influenced C hief Justice Hughes or his associates. The Supreme court decision disposes of the statem ent that President Roose velt’s adm inistration lias been proceed ing “regardless of the Constitution.” The decision will be reassuring to busi ness and the public generally. ■3 $ $ Arthur Brisbane From every point of view the be heading of women by Sir. H itler’s gov ernm ent seems to have been a pain fully disgusting performance. The women’s hands were bound with steel chains—in fear, perhaps, that they might bite through strings or straps. The agile headsman, in full dress, cut off both heads In six minutes. The women were beheaded out of doors in the night, Just before dawn, with flood lights for the headsman’s work. W itnesses of the killings praise the composure of the two women. Each walked to her death erect w rists chained behind her, showing no sign of fear. An eyewitness said: “They set a good example to our men, whom we usually have to drag to the scaffold.” Tou have read about “w ar with germs” in the next great outburst India proves that it could be done. A t Alipore two are. condemned to death, convicted of "germ murder.” As rich A m arendra Nath Pandey walked along the street he felt a sharp stab. He cried o u t A germ poisoner had in jected plague germs into his blood. Amarendra died. His m urderers were his step-brother and his doctor. Two other doctors, accused, were acquitted1. A well-organized germ war could be disagreeable, distributing disease germs above great cities and in reservoirs from planes. At Leyden, in Holland, scientists have produced a degree of cold said to approach within one five-thousandth, of a degree of absolute zero. A gigantic electro-m agnet In com bination with liquid helium, produces the lowest tem perature ever known on earth. The lowest possible degree of cold, the absolute zero, would be minus 273 degrees centigrade, or minus 459.6 F ahrenheit At least science thinks so. It used to call the atom “sm allest frag ment of matter.’’ Science needs “absolute zero” to help In tearing apart the atom, now known to be a m iniature solar system. D octor Steinach of Vienna, whose business has been transplanting glands of lower anim als to the bodies of men, to prolong youth and extend the years of possible parentage, an nounces now a "chemical substance” th at makes transplanting glands un necessary. The chemical, called prog- ynon, possibly a compound of “prog eny,” Is available for men or women. The fact that a demand for it exists proves what fools there are, among men and women, seeking for more trouble, after kind nature has set them free. Henry Ford views money philosophi cally as merely an abstract "indefinite, incoherent homogeneity.” as H erbert Spencer might have called i t Mr. Cameron, broadcasting, mentioned cas ually the fact that Mr. Ford In one year lost $68,000,000. . When this w riter asked Henry Ford w hat was the most money he had lost in any year while “changing type” and reorganizing, he replied: “I didn't lose any money. I only distributed some money.” It has been customary a t executions In New Jersey state prison to admit relatives of a murdered man, that they Imay witness the killing of the mur derer; very considerate, if relatives of one murdered really desire to see the m urderer as he sits In the chair, straining ae«.lnst the straps and froth ing behind the mask. It is safe to predict that Colonel Lindbergh will re ject the invitation to see Hauptmann put to death for the kidnaping and m urder of his child. News Review of Current Events the World Over New Deal Sighs Relief as Supreme Court O. K’s Gold L a w s —President Urges Congress to Extend NRA Two More Years. By EDWARD W. PICKARD ©, Western Newspaper Union. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT and the New Dealers breathed easier after the United States Supreme court hand ed down its decision sustaining inval- idation of “gold clauses” in private contracts, but not on federal bonds. While it was held that the government must pay off its bonds In gold or its equivalent in de* valued currency, an other ruling that the p Court of Claims had B no jurisdiction over *’ such cases means that President it woui <3 be impossible Roosevelt for holders of federal bonds to collect on their old gold basis. In other words, the holder of a $1,000 federal bond is entitled to a technical value of $1,600, but in reality it would be imprnctic-al to make any collection of that amount, since the Court of Claims is the only tribunal before which suits against the government may be taken, and other courts may not entertain such suits without a spe cial act of congress. The court also held that those who held gold certificates bad no cause of action and could not sue the govern ment. The power of congress to deal with currency was fully upheld. Not only this country, but the entire world, awaited what the “nine lonely old men” of the Supreme court had to say about the Roosevelt monetary pol icies. The decision is ranked with the court's decisions In the Dartmouth col lege cases in 1818 which upheld the sanctity of contract, and in the Dred Scott slavery case in 1857 which had much to do with hastening the out break of the Civil war. Briefly, the ruling said: L Congress has the power to nullify promises to pay in gold contained In the bonds of private corporations. 2. A gold certificate is worth only Its face value in present devalued cur rency. Congressional power over the currency includes the right to estab lish circumstances under which gold certificates need not be redeemed in gold or its equivalent. 3. Congress has no authority under the Constitution to abrogate the pay ment-in-gold clause of government bonds, but, as no actual damage bus been shown, therefore there is no basis for suit for recovery. The decision was read by Chief Jus tice Charles Evans Hughes, who voted with Justices Brandeisl Stone, Roberts and Cardozo in the majority. Dissent ers were Justices MeReynolds, Van Devanter, Sutherland and Butler, the four so-calied conservatives. Satisfaction within the adm inistra tion was evident at once. Justice McReynolds was spokesman for the dissenters. He ‘unleashed a scathing attack on the majority views. H is voice vibrant, he said: “The Constitution as we have known it is gona” “If given effect, the enactments here challenged will bring about confisca tion of property rights and repudia tion of national obligations.” “Just men regard spoliation of citi zens by their sovereign with abhor rence, but we are asked to affirm that the Constitution has granted power to accomplish both.” 'No definite delegation of such a power exists; and we cannot believe the farseeing fram ers, who labored with hope of establishing justice and securing the blessings of liberty, in tended that the expected government should have authority to annihilate its own obligations and destroy the very rights which they were endeavoring to protect” I Notified that Chief Justice Hughes I was reading the decision. President . Roosevelt went to the cabinet room, ' where he listened to telephone reports from an aid. Three cabinet oflicers ' were at bis side. The Chief Executive was prepared to take sw ift action to protect the credit of the government In case an adverse decision was band ed down, but executive orders were unnecessary. The- carefully prepared program was not needed. Jam es A. Moffett, federal housing administrator, says the country is out of the depression but does not know it. In the West he “found business condi tions definitely improved. Los Angeles alone has pledged $100,600,000 In new construction and modernization involv ing all types of buildings.” San Fran cisco likewise has embarked on an am bltious building program. Now If 10.000.000 or 12,000.000 Idle Americans can get back to jobs, even thouga they may "not know It.” all will be well. A TCinc Feature Syndicate, ine WKU SerVt** TWO more years of the NRA1 with clarification of policies, more effec tive' enforcement of codes and the granting of “unquestioned power” to the federal government, were urged by the President in a message to congress. I The national recovery act termi- ! nates June 16 this year. “ Abandon- 1 meat would be unthinkable,” he said, naming the act as “the biggest factor In giving re-einployment to approxi mately 4.000,000 people.” He said congress must maintain the fundamental principles of the act to establish at least a minimum fair trade practice and labor relations standard, pleading that child labor must stay ont and that fixing of wages and hours was practical- and necessary. Answering recent protests of labor, he SJiId: “The rights of employees freely to organize for the purpose of collective bargaining should be fully protected.” He urged more strict application of anti-trust laws, condemned monopolies and private price fixing, opposed hind ranees to fair competition, and pro posed further protection of small en terprises against discrimination and oppression. His suggestions, if adopted, would keep code violators from behind the bars. “The way to enforce laws, codes and regulations relating to industrial practices is not to seek to put people in jail,” he said. Admitting some mistakes, the Presi dent was well satisfied that the NRA had done a good job considering its short existence. “Only carping critics and those who seek political advantage and the right again to indulge in unfair Pra-Ctices or exploitation of labor or consumers de liberately seek to quarrel over the ob vious fact that a great code of law, of order and of decent business cannot be created In a day or a year,” Mr. Roosevelt declared. All details of the legislation were left to congress. While this is in prog ress, the senate finance committee pro poses to conduct the Nye-McCarran in vestigation of the NRA adm inistration and codes. The judiciary subcommit tee reported no funds available, but the inquiry, which has the President’s approval, will be attem pted without money. IVyjORE than 100 men were reported killed or wounded in a skirmish in the “demilitarized” zone which lies between Manchukuo and China north of Tientsin. The clash was between the recently formed Peace Preserva tion corps and the Lwanchow militia. The Peace Preservation corps, which has the approval of the Chinese gov ernment, was receiving money and arm s from the Japanese, it was al leged. The m ilitia I:: supported by lo cal Chinese interests. Secretary Wallace ■ y ICTOR A. CHRISTO AD, demoted from his position of second rank ing officer of the AAA In the recent shake-up which involved several al leged radicals, resigned in protest. Chester C. Davis, adm inistrator, had not accepted the resignation and Sec retary of Agriculture Wallace was at tempting to persuade Christgau to change his mind. Wallace hinted that there had been differences between Christgau and A. H. Laiiterbach1 chief of the AAA dairy sec tion, over the milk policy. A protege of Un dersecretary Rexford Gny Tugwetl, Christ- gau was also supposed to have encountered I “friction” with other if members of the de partment. This gave rise to new rumors that Brain Truster Tugwell will resign be fore his influence In the AAA is too severely curtailed by the demotion and ouster of his con freres. Meanwhile amendments to the Agri cultural Adjustment act were declared to conceal dangerous, arbitrary and autocratic powers over farmers, manu facturers and distributors of farm products, by the legislative committee of the agricultural industries confer ence In W ashington. The committee cited the provision that the AAA may require that a licensed processor pur chase only from those who sign con tracts. It charges that the amend ments make no provision for the farm er to express himself in the m atter of licenses, but contain provisions for price control, markets, production and purchasing. Through indirect restric tion of the farm er’s market, these pro visions are equivalent to a licensing of the farmer, according to the com mittee. “The entire economic life of communities could be directed from W ashington,” the committee said.

Fisher and Frederick A. Pope pre sented the appeal after a battle with Chief Defense Counsel Edward J. Reilly, who subsequently threatened that either he or Fisher would have to w ithdraw from the Hauptmann de fense. The bearing will probably take' place at the next session of the court, which begins May 21. P art of the dissension among de fense attorneys was thought to exist because Reilly never challenged the assumption that the body of the dead baby was that of Lindbergh’s son. George H. Foster, form er investigator for the defense, declared that seven autopsies were ready to show that the baby could not have been Lindy’s be cause it was four inches taller than Charles A. Lindbergh, J r.; was In a less identifiable condition than would have been possible in the mild weath er follow ing.the kidnaping, and was embalmed. National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart National Press Building W ashington. D. C. W ashington.—Certain signs of tran sition are appearing in the political picture. They areThird Party becom ing clear R a m b lin g a enough to deserve attention. W hat they may mean in the ultim ate can be made only the subject of a guess—politics being w hat they are—but Interesting circumstances can be noted as of this day and time. Third party rumblings are beginning to be heard along the whole political front. This is noteworthy because thiqd party rumblings usually are con fined to a few sectors, some im portant, some unim portant. The insurgents, radicals, progressives, and independ ents all seem to be examining the po litical horizons of 1936. Roughly, those factions enum erated have been classified as the “sons of the wild jack ass,” an appellation given them by George H. Moses of New Hampshire, when he was filling a Republican seat In the United States senate. The fact that they remain and that Mr. Moses has passed out of the political picture is not the point. It w as his descrip tion of them that gave the country its first grouping of the political factions that have consistently kicked over the traces of the m ajor political parties. The fact th at these various groups are again exam ining the potentialities and the possibilities of 1936 brings di rectly into question the progress made by the New Deal In its program of reform ation or revolution, depending on the political perspective from which you consider the New Deal, It is two years since President Roosevelt carried his New Deal into the W hite House. Much w ater has gone over the dam since. M any ex perim ents have been tried and many have failed. Doubtless considerable progress of a satisfactory form has re sulted. Yet, the “sons of the wild jackass” are not satisfied. It may be because Mr. Roosevelt has ceased to pull so many white rabbits out of a hat after the fashion of a magician, that has caused unaffiliated factions so much disturbance. Or it may be because the Republicans, as the op position party at present, have been utterly stymied In their efforts to per form ’ opposition functions th at have proved the temptation for the so-called left wingers to capitalize whatever political opportunities rem ain for ex ploitation. I think it is the general conclusion that the New Deal has not come up to expectations of the left wingers. Per haps, it might be said that nothing that the New Dealers can offer will be quite satisfactory to the left wingers, for they are difficult to satisfy. Their fertile minds are even more produc tive of experimental ideas than are the minds even of the brain trusters, and no one has ever said a brain trust mind was not fertile. At any rate, the circumstance is cut and dried and an abundance of m aterial for a third party aw aits us by that type of politi cian. Observers here agree th a t'o n e can not consider the outlook for 1936, and the national elections of that time, without considering the Influence that these left wingers may wield. I be lieve it is conceded everywhere that If Mr. Roosevelt succeeds In leading the country through to a higher level of prosperity than now graces our for tunes the Republican chances to de feat him are very, very low. If, on the other hand, conditions continue as they now are, Mr. Roosevelt certainly Is going to have to battle this progres sive set-up—to adopt one label for all of them—as well as the conservative group centering largely in the Repub licans. From this it becomes plain that a third party probably would draw away from Mr. Roosevelt all ’of those radicals and liberals who would go .beyond his policies, while the Re publicans obviously will hold their own conservative strength and sap the Roosevelt forces to some extent by taking conservative independents from that side. All In all, if the third party Idea comes through, we can look for a fine political scram ble from July to November of the 1936 campaign. » * * The progressives, Including such men as LaFollette of Wisconsin, N orris of w , „ N eb .ra.sk a,.. a n d tre e d H ero W heeler of M ontana, Leader to name only three, seem to feel that the New Deal program has about jelled. They know, as all political observers know, that there are a good many hun dred thousand votes scattered around waiting to be cast In favor of a pro gram much more radical than that to -which Mr. Roosevelt has been willing to agree. But the progressives have a distinct problem of their own. It is an entire absence of an outstanding leader of the hero type who can sound the trum pet and call for the progres sives to “follow me.” My Inquiries among all veins of political opinion have given me no clue to the name of an individual who can head up the m ovem ent As I said above, however results cannot be predicted now and one m ust add to that statem ent aho th at one cannot guess a t the leadership of this new movement because it will have to JeH further before that leader ship appears on the horizon. It Is even possible that these cur rent third party rumblings will mean no more Ihan they have in maoy cases In the p a st This is tru e because there is not a Theodore R oosevelt In sight a t the moment and som e astute politi cians insist there is not one In the country. If a m an of the late Teddy’s type and qualities should come to the surface then probably this third party movement would develop into form id able proportions. If one does not sbow up, I do not see how the progressives w ill be any more in 1936 than the scat tered fragm ents of a dozen-odd polit ical philosophies. T hat brings us to some of the cir cum stances in congress a t the present time. In previous letters I have re ported to you that there w ere signs indicating difficulties for Mr. Roosevelt In holding his gigantic D em ocratic m a jorities together in the house and sen ate. T hat condition has become some w hat more aggravates than it ap peared when I first commented upon i t There have been m inor defections breaking loose from the Dem ocratic m ajority in the house and in the sen ate w ith considerable frequency. On one or two occasions the defections w ere exceedingly large and, when joined with the Republican minority, were alm ost large enough to constitute the m ajority strength. The Dem ocrat ic leadership has wriggled out, thereby saving its skin, but the m argin of safe ty w as such as to cause sleepless nights not only in the Capitol, but in high places in the adm inistration. As one of the signs of this grow ing discontent, one has only to look back over the last few w eeks and ob serve the continued prodding being given the adm inistration from the Democratic side. The w orst phase -of this prodding is the apparent willing ness of m any D em ocratic representa tives and senators to prom ote inves tigations. * * * There is a faction in congress, all claiming to be good Dem ocrats, who are on th e trail of Seek FarleytS postm aster General Scalp Farley’s scalp. There Is another bloc of equally good Dem ocrats who w ould be quite happy to have Secretary Ickes ousted out of the position of secretary of the interior and who squaw ked loud and long about giving Mr. Ickes con trol' of the $5,000,000,000 relief appro priation. W ithin the last few days a gang b s banded together on the trail of Donald Richberg, until recently the m an who was closest of any in the adm inistra tion to the P resident To add to Mr. Richberg’s troubles, he is on the outs with the American Federation of La bor and it m ust be said th at the fed eration can do a great deal with many members of the house and senate. So, when the legislation for continuance of the- National Recovery A dm inistration gets on the floors of congress I think it is likely this group w ill tear off some Richberg bark. Governor Eccles of the Federal Re serve bureau, a rath er new New Deal er and a fast thinker, has not helped the adm inistration’s 's itu a tio n ‘in con gress any by his bank bilL H e has antagonized the m ost virulent fighter In the halls of congress, namely, Sen ato r Glass, Dem ocrat of Virginia, by the banking proposals which he spon sored. Senator Glass has alw ays bad a following in the senate and he has it now. W hatever he does, therefore, his leadership will be im portant be cause he will have not only his own following but the conservative Repub licans a s well. The banking legislation, according to the view in m any quarters, m ay turn out to be the focal point, th e is sue. on which the line of cleavage be tween the adm inistration New D ealers and the conservatives will be definite ly established.* * * In discussing congressional troubles for the adm inistration no one dares • overlook the stockyAs to figure of Senator Huey Long Hoey Long. H uey ju st does not like Mr. Roosevelt In fact H uey would like to be President himself. Political am bitions combined w ith a vitriolic tongue give Huey a broad platform upon which to perform and unless I m iss my guess he is . willing to be in creasingly troublesome - to -the adm in istration. Huey knows th at the adm inistration is going to overiook no opportunity for harpooning him. Among the exec utive departm ents in W ashington, one hears hints, and sometimes m ore than hints, that Huey is vulnerable and that these weaknesses In his arm or will be exposed in due course. How much steam the adm inistration can or will turn on is highly problem atical It m ust be remembered th at If, for ex ample, A ttorney G eneral Chimmings should authorize or direct any ac tion against Huey the Louisiana sen ator Immediately would capitalize those orders as an adm inistration movement to persecute him. In other words the adm inistration is In a spot w here it can easily make a m artyr out of Huey. Tbe result of th at would be to strengthm i Huey’s position im m easurably.

T h e old age pension is on its way as m ost everyone will adm it, but there is the m istaken idea th at it will become operative in short order. N um bers of aged persons, poor and unem ployed, have been led into be lieving th at the governm ent is about to get under all their financial wor ries, and som e of them have been w riting in to see about getting their $200 per m outh, because they claim they need it now.

I t would seem now th at th e m ax m um possible paym ent is #30 a m onth, and this will go first to only a few aged now on th e relief rolls, and even to these the m oney will not be available until cooperating legislation is enacted by the states.

W hat w as painted as one in M arch, 1933 , is only a m irage com pared to w hat actually exists today. T here is unem ploym ent, there is a grow ing discontentm ent am ong those em ployed are being reduced to such a level by by re duction in hours and thereby re duction in pay th a t their purchas- ing.pow er is being so reduced as To deprive them of the real necessities of life. T his is being done under the theory th at by reducing one class it will raise the other. T he college professor cites the m eat scales to prove his theory. P u t an iron w eight on one end and you can balance it w ith a piece of m eat on the other side, he says. But hum an beings are neither dead iron or raw m eat, and w hile one can cut his m eat to balance tha iron w eight, hum an beings cannot'be butchered down to a point necessary to bal ance the other side of th e scales. So the dream ers’ theories do not w ork in this instance. T h e people of the nation have been, for the greater part, calm and patriotic. T hey, as tru e A m eri cans have ,been w illing to w ork a- Iong w ith the new adm inistration in an effort to solve the grave pro blem before the country.

F inally they found th at m ore w as constantly being loaded onto the w agon and the load w as becom ing heavier while their own strength w as being some how sapped. T h is js a picture of w hat appears to be going on in the country. T h e people are now call ing for skid chains-and a break to help hold th e load. - 1 N ow th a t the ’-loss” system has been tried for tw o years they are asking. W hy not tu rn to th e "p ro fit” system ? I t m ay have oeen a- bused by som e, but w hy m ake the entire nation suffer? W hy not cor rect those abuses In a sensible way? In other words, w hy throw aw ay a perfectly good pair of sbOes th at can be renew ed w ith half-soiling?- T h e tim e has com e for the dream ers to adm it to the A m erican peo ple th a t their old and w ornout deals are jjo t a ’’N ew D eal.” T h at to retu rn to norm alcy it is necessary to cut the chains from the people’s ankles and to set them from so th at they m ay once m ore do for them selves.

H ere is a passage from "W h at is Socialism ’ ’: U niversal old age pen sions and .social insurance would still fu rth er m inim ize the strife for large incom es by rem oving in great part the necessity for individual saving. T h at'tells the above story in-a few plain w ords. T h at’s not a a N ew Deal, it’s an ancient one. Socialists w ork in. tw o directions in th eir effort to w reck the non socialist system s of governm ent. O ne is direct action and th e Other is by increased taxation.

Two brothers, born and reared on a cotton plantation in Central Texas, h a,v e invented a cotton picking machine which they declare will do away w ith the backaches involved in . the old m ethod of sep aratin g : the staple from the bolls, and revolution ize the production end of the indust ry. In final tests w ith the.m achine it is claim ed th at the ,'contraption picked 8,020 pounds of seed cotton in seven and a half hours, and th a t it ,will ' cover an. acre an *hour, d o ing-the work of from .fifty, to one hundred: .p ^ o U s A o w n fh fe c p ttO ^ ' 'Be Has dbriea' fairly good daF'C'work; when the scales register; 150 pounds at the end of the day, and so if the... machine will do what is claimed for it, much of the human element in the production and marketing of cotton will be eliminated. In this connection it is not general ly known th at here in Statesvilie-the dream of the developm ent of a cot ton-picking machine was all but- real ized. It w asdeveloped to th e point where it actually picked cotton; and it rem ained for the principles of its construction to be correlated- and. tim ed to overcome faults in its gen- eraLapplication to varying fields and heights of the stalk. The description of the Texas m achine indicates; th at m any of the principles of th eHocal invention have been followed.. _-. Cotton-picking machines have been promised fo r many decades, and it is reasonable to assum e th a t had -hot adverse days come w ith a Curtailm ent of resources, the costly process' of experim entation w ith the local rr.a* chine would have been continued to a successful conclusion. ’ B nt if and when a practical, d e pendable and efficient cotton?picking apparatus is developed the Soutb;wiil have won and lost. The m aterial gain will come in the saving of Jthe cost of labor, and this saving will be enorm ous. ' T hebum aii gain will; be in the elim ination of the physical dis com fort th at goes w ith bended back, - as tbe individual cOtton picker 'p u r sues'his w eary way back and fo rth along the cotton rows. B ut there will be the loss o f the rythm ic chorus of the singing South ern "darkies” a t cotton-picking tim e in the South if them echanical picking device succeeds- T here will be little heard of the “ hallelujahs,” “ glory roads” and the “ new buryin’ groufid” which in the past have inspired _the w orkers to forget the pain o f the toil and incidentally p u t m ore pounds in the “ sack” a t the end of the days. There would be loss, too, in ’ tbe em ploym ent of a class of w orkers whose repertoire of effort is lim ited largely to the cotton row . Produc tion would be regim ented amfHthe small tenant farm er would virtually be elim inated .fro m '' the picture- Mechanized cotton-picking would in crease th e efficiency of the big plant ation aud give an advantage th at could not be hurdled.

The Record has always donated niuch free space to the government and the state agricultural depart ment and will continne to do so gladly, but private corporations are expected to pay us advertising rates for space used in furthering private enterprises. Senator Kingfish Long is going to be a candidate for President next year. Well, the Kingfish will carry Louisana and maybe South Caro lina.

If ' President Hoover had been given half-the powei and even.one* fourth of the money that Congress has turned over to President Roose. velt, this country would be in much better shape than it is today. Any body can buy inflated prosperity until their credit runs out. The people of North Carolina are not going to legalize the sale of Ii quor. There is some whisky be ing made and sold in this state, but nothing compared with the amount made and sold in states where its sale is legalized Liquor stores, or saloons wouldn’t put the blockader or bootlegger out cf business. - Some of the brain trust folks are -declaring that tbe price of tobacco was'too high last year, and that something must be done to lower prices next fall. Maybe so. If 'there is a tobacco farmer in this state who thinks he got too much for his tobacco crop last year, we would be glad-to hear from him ,There is some talk of Solicitor Iohn R. Jones being a candidate next year on the Republican ticket for. Governor of North Carolina. -Mn. Jones is a fine fellow, and one of the best solicitors in the state. We would be glad to see John R nominated and elected governor of the great state of. North Carolina.' The Winston. Sentinel says that a Moses, in. the person of Frank Iin D. Roosevelt, arose two years ago and led this country out of a Wilderness. If legalizing the sale of intoxicating liquors and running this country In debt billions of dol lars, is what- it took to bring us out of the' wilderness—then we are out. , Editor -Sell, of the Cooleemee journal, was in our office a few days ago and told us that he owned four acres of land at Albemarle ad joining the- gold mine which is •"thought to. be fabulously rich, and where a number of gold nuggets have been found. - Here's hoping that Editor Sell will get at least a a million dollars worth of gold off his' town lots.

I f tbey haven’t already spared we have been badly fooled. About a year ago eggs were.selling a t io cents per. dozen and breakfast bacon and country hams at from 15 to 17 qents.per pound. Today eggs are 2 5 to 3 0 cents per dozen, w hile bacon and hams are .bringing 3 0 to 4 OjC entspf^tggund, Just w h ere the working cii^ b f peopleware going to get the cash to buy these items, we are not prepared to say. The aged folks: in Davife—those over 6 0 years of age—who thought they were,going to get a $ 2 0 0 per month pension in the near future, are going to be sorely disappointed They may eventually get a pension but the amount will be nearer $3 0 per month. To give every' person in the United States over 60 years of age a pension of $2 ,4 0 0 per year, would cost the government about $24,0 0 0,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 a year. This, or no other government could stand such a strain. Theold age pension may come, but don’t make any plans to spend the money until you know you are going to get it.

Court In Davie Opens Monday The March term of Davie super ior court will convene here Monday with Judge Hardingon the bench, and Solicitor John R. Jones prose cuting the docket.. Superior Court C lerk M. A. Hartman reports there are about fifty cases on the trial docket, a majority of them being misdemean ors. Perhaps the most important cases docketed are those against Fred Franklin and Joe Martin, charged with second-degree burg lary and assult with a deadly weap on with intent to kill. The burglary cases relate to breaking and entering two dwelling houses in Mocksville about Christ mas and the assault cases deal with an attempt to break jail in January when Franklin slugged C. V. Mil ler, county jailor with a sash.weight, injuring him so severely that his condition'is still critical as the skull was fractured. Fred Franklin, Joe Martin and James Poplin are already under sen- teuces of five years each given in Rowan county superior court for robbery of a filling station, but are being held here to await trial on the more serious charges in this county.

Those tobacco growers who have been producing tobacco and have moved to land with no tobacco base and the new growers who are grow ing tobacco this year for the first time will be given an opportunity to make application for a Special-Base Tobacco Contract. This contract will carry small benefits. Tenants who have been growing tobacco and have moved to a place with no base will probably receive fairly good base. Those who are starting this year for the first time cannot expect much. Committeemen will be at Kobert Store, Advance, and Lowery’s Pill ing Station at County Line on Mon day, March 18 and Tuesday. March 19 Those who expect an allotment should be at one of tbe two above mentioned places. If we' expect to know how much we can plant by time to plant it will be neccessary to get these applications into the Ra leigh office at the earliest possible date so be on hand to make your ap plication. _________ Fork News Notes.

We can discuss It better In the saddle.” Jim could not find his tongue. H e was vastly concerned w ith this ride. A fter it, would he be as strong as he was now? To be near her. . . . B arnes led the onslaught of ranch hands Upon Helen, and the welcome she received could not have been any thing but gratifying. Jim got on the horse Barnes saddled for him and followed Helen who to his surprise took the road back up to the ranch house. Perhaps she had for gotten something. But when he turned the bend she was mounting the trail th at led up the ridge. If there had been giants on huge steeds pulling Jim back, he still would have kept on. When they got up to the level-ridge, among the pines, he trotted to catch up with her. B ut she kept a little ahead. H is thoughts locked around the astounding fact—this w as the trail they had ridden down, after th at en counter when he had kissed her. Sight and hearing, his sense of all around him, seemed strangely Intensified. The pines whispered, the rocks had a secret voice, the sky turned blue, the white clouds sailed, the black H enrys loomed above and the purple-gray valley deep ened Its colors below. Helen halted her horse under the very pine where they had stopped to listen to the hounds and cowboys rac ing up the ridge after the deer. “My sense of direction seems to be all right,” said Helen. “Helen, I fear it’s better than your sense—of kindness, let me say. . . . W hy did you bring me here?” “Please look a t my cinch,” she re plied, coolly. Jim dismounted, more unsure of him self than ever in any of the many crucial moments of his career. H e did not understand a woman. H e could only take Helen literally. H er saddle cinch was all right, and he rather curtly told her so. "Then—maybe it’s my stirrup,” she w ent on, lightly, as she removed her booted and spurred foot “ Well, I can't see anything wrong w ith that, either. . . . Helen.” Something thudded on the ground. H er gloves and her sombrero. But they surely had not fallen. She had flung them ! A wave as trresistible as the force of tbe sea burst over him. B ut he looked up, outwardly cool. And as he did her gloved hand went to his shoulder. “Nothing—the m atter with—your stirrup," he said huskily. “No. A fter all, It’s not my cinch— nor my stirrup. . . . Jim , could any of your w estern girls have done better than this?” “Than w hat?” “Than fetching you here—to this place—w here it happened.” “Yes. They would have been more merciful.” ; “B ut since I love you—” “You are mad,” he cried. “And since I w ant you—presently—• to behave som ewhat like yon did th at day.” H e reeled under th a t The truth was alm ost overwhelming. The strong, earnest light of her eyes told more than her words. H er pallor had van ished; She w as no longfer cool. “Jim, you m ight have saved me this. B ut perhaps it is ju st as well.

She ran soft ungloved hands through his hair and over his temples. “People, cities, my humdrum existence had palled me. I wanted- romance, adven ture, love. . . .

Recently It w as announced that Wake, lonely is land possession of the United States, will be developed as a mid-ocean sta tion if a proposed trans-Pacific air route comes into existence. “W ake is the largest of three mere specks clustered In the vast Pacific about 2,200 miles from Honolulu on a direct line to Manila,” says tbe Na tional Geographic society. “It is less than two square miles in area and its two neighbors, W ilkes and Peale, have a combined area of nearly three-quar ters of a mile. W ithout Fresh W ater. “Although discovered by the British In 1796, W ake has never attracted per manent settlers; in fact, few people have ever set foot on its shores and remained to explore it. To students of geography, the island has been hard ly more than a name on a list of the United States possessions; to readers of travel tales, it is known only as one of the land spots glimpsed from the rail of an occasional passing vessel; to navigators of passenger ships plying between the Hawaiian islands and Guagi, it is merely one of those ‘very dangerous spots’ which they are warned to avoid. “Yet Wake, although without fresh water, is not as forbidding as was Mid way. island, westernmost of the Ha waiian group about 1,500 miles to the northeast, before it became a cable sta tion. Wake Is clad In heavy brush, and umbrella and hardwood trees, while Midway was a barren sandy spot until earth was shipped there so that Its handful of residents, employees of a cable company, might survive. The nearest neighbors of the W ake group are the Pokankku (Taongi) Islands 450 miles to the south-southeast within the Japanese mandated portion of Mi cronesia. Not W orth Charting. “Charles Wilkes, commander of the United States exploring expedition of 1841, was probably the first person to make more than a cursory visit to the island. H e thought tbe island so un im portant that he did not chart I t In his report he said: ‘W ake’s island is a low coral one of triangular form and 8 feet above the surface. It has a large lagoon in the center which was well filled witb fish of a variety of Species; among these were some fine m ullet From appearances, the island must be a t times, submerged, or the sea makes a complete breach over it; the appearance of the coral blocks and of all the’ vegetation leads to this con clusion for they have a very decided inclination to the eastward, showing also th a t’the violent winds or rush of water, when the island is covered, are from the westward. “The island has been In possession of the United States since 1899 when it was visited by the 17. S. S. Benning ton under the command of C apt E. D. Taussig. The last official visit to W ake was In 1922 when the U. S. S. Beaver was dispatched there merely to note If any changes were taking place.

The young church had met and over come some serious difficulties. She first had to face religions persecution at the hands of Jews.. Then came in ternal troubles as to the support of certain widows. The separating wall of Pharisaical legalism w as broken down in the admission of Gentiles Into the church, but finally she had to meet the naked sword of civil authority. Through' all these tests she was more than conqueror. I. Peter’s Imprisonment (w . 1-4). 1. By whom (v. I). Herod, the grandson of the wicked Herod who slew the innocent children of Bethle hem. H is half-sister, Herodias, secured the death of John the B aptist 2. The reason (v. S). It was to gain the favor of the Jews. Herod was not a Jew but an Edomite. Therefore, he knew that his success was dependent upon his having the good will of the Jews. H e seems not particularly to have hated the church, but to have loved popularity, for the sake of which be manifested a deep sympathy for degenerate Judaism . Since tbe church had so developed as to be a successful rival of Judaism, he saw an opportunity to curry favor with; the Jew s by put ting forth his hands against i t 3. The method (v. 4), H e was ar rested, put Into prison and guarded by sixteen soldiers, one group of four for each watch of the night. Humanly speaking it was impossible to escape. They had doubtless heard of Peter’s escape from jail before, so they thought they would take no risks this time. However, they reckoned without God. II. The Church of God In Prayer (v. 5). The church was at a crisis. James, one of the brethren of the church, was dead, and Peter, the most prominent of all, was in prison. In this desper ate strait, they betook themselves to prayer. This was a noteworthy prayer. 1. It was unto God. AU true prayer is unto God. 2. It was united prayer. There" !s peculiar power in the united prayer of God’s people. 3. It was more than unceasing pray er. It was the intensely earnest desire of the soul stretched toward God. 4. It was definite prayer. They specif ically offered prayer to God for Peter. III. Peter Delivered by an Anget Cvy- 6 -11 ).This occurred the night before He rod’s plan to make a public display of him. 1. Peter sleeping (v. 6). This shows th at he was not disturbed over the m atter. The Lord keeps in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on him (Isa. 26:3). 2. Peter leaves the prison (w . 7-10). A heavenly light shone In the-prison. The angel smote Peter on the side. The chains fell off. Peter put on his clothes and passed by one guard after another, through the iron gate and Into the city. The whole transaction was orderly and leisurely, showing that God Is not In a hurry. 3. The effect upon Peter (v. 11). Although the m atter was so wonder ful to Peter, who thought him self in a vision, when he came to himself he knew that God had miraculously deliv ered him from Herod’s wicked hands. |V. Unconscious Unbelief (w . 12-19). 1. The behavior of Peter and the church (vv 12-17). Peter went to the house of Mary and knocked.’ The knock was answered by Rhoda, who was so overjoyed that she forgot to open the gate, and went right in and told them that Peter w as at the gate. The disciples were not prepared for such good news, even accusing her of madness. She, undaunted, -Insisted. They ottered as an explanation that perhaps It might be Peter’s guardian angel In his likeness. Peter rehearsed unto them the Lord’s dealing with him. 2. The behavior of the soldiers (vv. 18, 19). There was great' agitation among them as to w hat had become of Peter. This was a serious m atter, since they were responsible for him. Not being able-to account for Peter’s escape, Herod cdmmanded that they be put to death. Aitter this, Herod went down to Caesarea, where he was adored as a god. Because he arrogat ed this lionor to himself, the Lord smote him. Herod died, but the word of the Lord grew and multiplied. How to Love Gocl To love God is-to love his character. For instance, God is purity. And to be pure In thought and look, to turn away from unhallowed books’ and conversa tion, to abhor the moments In which we have not been pure, is to love God. G ood. R ales o f Life It is a goodly thing to die with the blessed consciousness of never having taken advantage of another’s infirmity, or poverty, or ignorance; to die able to say th at one has not extended the empire of evil on the earth.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD ©, Westera Newspaper Union. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT ended his vacation a t Hyde Park and-left for Washinffton where his administration faces serious trouble, involving the prestige of the W hite House. Capitol Hill is full of lively curiosity over the President’s program, and whether he will fight the pres ent congressional de fiance of his leader ship and go before the people with one of his famed fireside talks, or w hether be will .-.gree to a compromise. Sen. W agner ^jr Roosevelt at the end of his second year In office faces a predicate in his relations to congress sim ilar to that which confronted Ur. Hoover In 1931. Unless he regains control his entire program is likely to bog down. The fight hinges on the $4,880,000,000 work- relief program, the first item In the President’s budget message and the principal mainstay of his program. Se cret conferences at which slices of pork were reported to have been dan gled before the avid eyes of revolting senators were said to have been held. A few supporters of the McCarran prevailing wage amendment which wrecked the bill and forced its recom- mission to the appropriations commit tee were said to be wavering under the pressure. Senator Robert F. Wag ner, who voted for the amendment, act ed as peacemaker. He Intimated the possibility of a compromise by paying m ore than the so-called security wage of $50 a month, but still lower than the prevailing rates. O ther leaders de clared they would not budge from their positions. Secretary Ickes has been no help to the-President in quelling the re volt In his recent testimony, Ickes was reluctant to tell a senate committee about allocation of $238,000,000 for a naval shipbuilding program. The sen ators finally pried out Information which would Indicate that th e . navy and the speculators knew all about the appropriation, but none of the mem bers of congress knew about i t The money was to be spent a t executive discretion, and senators feel this does not auger well for the proposal to hand to U r. Rosevelt unlimited power In spending the proposed five billion dollar appropriation. Since next year will bring another Presidential election, a third of the senators will be up for re-election, and all of the house members. They are watching closely the present situation because, if the President is slipping, they w ant their own records back home In good order. V /fD SSO LIN I has sent 5,000 more Italian troops to east Africa, making 10,000 that have been dis patched for the possible w ar with the empire of Ethiopia. W ith the latest contingent went Gen. RudoIfo Graziani, w ho will be fn command of the expedi tionary army. The soldiers were given a fine send-off at Naples, Crown Prince H um bert being present. MussoUni has set European govern m ents buzzing in a speech in which be roared defiance a t Italy’s foes, assert ing fbat he could put eight million armed men in the field if necessary. Newspapers during the past few weeks have openly referred to the possibility of a w ar between Italy and Germany over Austria, and it was thought that n Duce’s speech w as made to impresi upon the Nazis that be was prepared to defend Brenner pass, although < part of. the troops are being used ti Ethiopia. \ Britain is keeping a dose watch ol Ethiopian developments. Sir John Simon, foreign secretary, told the house' of commons. Simon said that the agree m ent of 1908 between Italy, France and G reat Britain To preserve the political and territorial status quo in Ethiopia Is In force and that Britain has drawn Italy’s attention to this fa c t He added, that the whole trouble is over the fron tier between Ethiopia and Italian SomaIUand which has never been prop erly defined. TH E Blue Eagle lost another tall feather the other day, when Fed eral Judge NieIds a t Wilmington, Del., held that the collective bargaining pro vision of NIRA is unconstitutional when applied to companies not engaged In interstate commerce. The adminis tration and organized labor immediate ly joined in a fight to preserve the va lidity of Section 7-A, and announced th a t an Immediate appeal would be tak en before the Dnited States Supreme co u rt The W agner labor relations bill mak ing Section 7-A tbe law of the land and outlawing company unions may have to be revised, if Judge Nield3 is upheld by tbe high court The ruling also gives support to opposition now form ing in congress against extension of NRA unless It is reorganized. Judge Nields’ ruling was on an In junction suit brought by the govern- Jnent against tbe W elrton Steel com p any to enjoin the steel firm from al leged violations of Section 7-A of NlRA an d the labor section of the fair com petition code of the iron and steel in dustry. He upheld the right of em ployees to form company unions for collective bargaining, thus upsetting the claim of the Amalgamated Associ ation of Iron, Steel and Tin W orkers, that the company intimidated employ ees and dominated tbe company union. The court held that the company is prim arily engaged In state, not inter state Commercel Which congress is not empowered to regulate. Judge Nields stated: “Power to enact Section 7-A was not conferred upon congress by the gen eral welfare' recital in the preamble of the Constitution, nor by the welfare clause. Article I, Section 8, of the Con stitution." Dnless the Supreme court reverses Judge Nields, the decision will prevent the New Deal from interfering with employee-empioyer relationships of a vast m ajority of American business. New Deal policies received another jolt the same day when Judge Charles L. Dawson on application of 35 west ern Kentucky coal operators Issued a w rit enjoining the government from enforcing the bituminous coal code, re affirming an earlier decision that the national industrial recovery act was unconstitutional. Judge Dawson de clared that the coal mining is an in trastate business, and beyond tbe pow er of congress to regulate. He had previously issued a tempor ary writ, on petition of the operators on the ground of invalidity of the code, but the court of appeal remanded the case for a finding of fact on tbe ques tion of irreparable injury. “When the government unconstitutionally inter feres with the right of a citizen to do business in his own way, that interfer ence constitutes an injury to the prop erty rights of the citizen,” said Judge Dawson, who labeled as fallacious the government lawyers’ contention that gains resulting from the coal code should offset losses. Fe d e r a l j u d g e iv. i. g r u b b of Alabama gave the New Deal a sharp rap that threatens the great electric power development In the Ten nessee valley. He ruled that the Ten nessee Valley Authority has no legal authority to dispose of surplus power generated at hydro-electric plants on the Tennessee river. Tbe adm inistra tion is depending on this enterprise to bring about the lowering of private power plant rates, and it was believed there would be an immediate appeal from the decision. In W ashington especial note was taken of the fact that Judge Grubb made permanent an injunction re straining 14 north Alabama cities and towns from negotiating with the Public W orks administration for loans to build electric distribution systems. There was speculation as to what ef fect, if any, this might have nationally on PWA’s policy of giving financial encouragement , to municipal power de velopments. INTERNAL troubles continue to rock Cuba, and President Carlos Mendl- eta’s regime appears tottering. Manuel Despaigne, the only member of Mendi- eta’s cabinet who was In office, has resigned as secretary of the treasury, completing the rout of the min istry brought about by the school strike. And twelve assistant cabi net secretaries have' also deserted the ad m inistration The cabinet resigna tions began over differ ences of opinion as to how to deal with the strike of several hundred thousand stu dents and teachers which has.^devel oped into a national movement to oust the Mendieta administration^ Comnra- nlst-led labor organizations are ready to throw their strength behind a revo lutionary genera) strike, and the situa tion Is becoming critical. Although armed forces are being held in readi ness to quel) disorders, there is- some doubt as to their loyalty to the presi dent Col. Fulgencio Batista, army chief of staif, was reported ready to throw bis support to Dr. Carlos Manuel de la Cruz for president if the Mendl- eta government falls, but leaders of • the anti-Mendieta movement have indi cated Batista’s choice would not be acceptable to them. Terrorism continues ram pant Bomb ing has become general, railroads have been blown up, and Havana has suf fered considerable damage to property,. canos Mendieta PO SSIBILITIES of a merger of i » ocrats with Republicans in fig] Dem- Republicans in fighting for repeal of the “pink slip” or income tax publicity section of the 1934 rev enue act was seen as Representative Bell, Missouri, pleaded for immediate passage of his bill eliminating-- the publicity provision. “Not only Is there fear on the part of the people of the country on ac count of gangsters and racketeers,”. Bell asserted “but there also is concern among- business men, because -their competitors will have -tbe- opportunity of nosing into their secret files.” A SWEEPING Investigation of NKA and charges of graft and corrup tion was started by the senate, when it passed the Nye-McCarran resolution for a finance committee inquiry after a series o f floor'conferences "between the sponsors, adm inistration leaders, lib eral Democrats, and western progres sives. Sponsors of the bill originally demanded a special committee to in vestigate NRA', but finally agreed to the finance committee handling the in quiry.' 'Since the finance committee is headed by .Senator P at Harrison, ad ministration follower, this may mean little. However, it is understood that H arrison agreed that counsel and pro fessional Investigators be employed, and also yielded to demands that the committee confer with M cCarran and Nye in planning the investigation. If Harrison attem pts to “whitewash” tne NRA, it Is rumored that Nye will take the floor to demand that the inquiry be placed In the bands of the judiciary committee. THB irrepressible Huey Long an nounced In Baton Rouge that he will be a candidate for governor of Louisiana In 1936. That may be just more Kingfish conversation. However it is known that Long has not preferred tbe office he now holds, and there is some possibility that he may seek the chief executive’s chair of his state. When asked what would become of his candidacy for the presidency, he said that being elected governor and being a candidate for president would not interfere with each other. De te r m i n e d not to accept the M cCarran-Federation of Labor prevailing wage amendment, the ad m inistration forces In the senate sent the work relief bill Iiack to the committee. What will happen now to the President’s, big program is problemat-. ical. Senator Byrnes of Soutb Carolina, one of tbe administration men, d e clared the measure had met its death. Insisting he w as ex- pressing bis own be- Senator Huey ]jef and not talking for the P resident, Byrnes said, “There is no prospect" of reviving the works program and “The committee probably will do nothing about i t ” T he President stated that if the M cCarran amendment were adopted he would not sign the bill,” Byrnes said. 'The senate adopted it, therefore, so as far as the works part is concerned, the bill is gone.” He expressed the thought tbe com mittee would report out an appropria tion of $880,000,000 or $1,880,000,000 to carry out . the present relief program for six months or a year. Adoption of tbe M cCarran amend- ment by the senate was brought about only after a hard fight and by means of a rather tricky shifting .of pairs In which Huey Iging took a leading part, it won by a margin of one vote, where upon Senator Robinson, Democratic leader; moved that tbe bill be sent back to the committee. This was done, Sen ator Glass expressing the hope that the committee would report out a bill “that will not be quite so controver sial.” Senator Long, who loses no oppor tunity to pester the adm inistration and to display his political shrewdness, has started a movement for the specifi cation of $2,500,000,000 of tbe work re lief m easure's total for the purpose of highway construction. Highway com missions In every state were asked by him to Indorse this plan. Long said he bad discussed it with some other sen ators and that they liked it.

Baron Pompeo Aloisl. Italian chairman of the league’s Saar committee, took over the reins from Col. Geoffrey Knox, British chairman pf the territorial governing commission.

Fifteen years ago Babe Ruth, “home run king,” w as bought by “the Yankees” for $125,000, highest price ever paid up to that tim e for a baseball player.

As we go around the sun, with the moon circling round our little earth, and our sun doubtless revolving around some other great central star unknown to us, the moon is alw ays pulling at the earth, as a child pulls at its moth er’s skirt. T hat pull gradually causes the earth to “slow down” In speed, turning on its axis. Doctor Nicholson, astronom er a t Wil son observatory, says this constant'pull of the moon will eventually make the earth turn so slowly that its day will be’47 days long instead of 24 hours. “Out of the m ouths of babes, and sucklings.” JaCk Dempsey, who really seemed to like fighting, apart from the profit, In his cham pionship days, discussing other fighters In his “sere and yellow le a f’ a t forty, says men that refuse to do “road work” should know that “you can’t toughen your legs In a chair o r posing for pictures.” Legs are not im portant, but brains are.

Washington.—Although it has been several w eeks since th e Suprem e court of tb e U nited States C a ll I t rendered its history* R ep ttd U d io n m aking decision In the gold cases, there Is no slackening in the disturbance from the effects of tbe adm inistra tion’s gold policies, even In the light of the court ruling. W hile the court held th at congress had no pow er to enact legislation invalidating the gold clause In governm ent bonds, it said In the sam e breath th a t collection from the governm ent by • a bond holder w as another story. Since the govern m ent has taken'gold out of. circulation, collection appears virtually impossible but the appearance is not going to stop bond holders from seeking w hat they regard as justice. . I t is now apparent th at the govern- mentis action is going to be regarded both here and abroad as repudiation. T hat is a' nasty w ord w hen applied to governm ents and its repercussions likely w ill be heard for a good many years. W hile the repudiation of th e gold paym ents will affect com paratively few people directly, the significance o f the action in a political w ay is becoming more and m ore ap p aren t The repudia tion in its effect on the bond holders may be only tem porary, but its effect Jiolitically will be far-flung. I think it is generally considered now th a t the gold question w ill become a param ount issue in the next political cam paign and it is not impossible that It will continue to be an issue over a period of years. T his is so because, adm ittedly, actual dam age has been done to American prestige in foreign lands. It is m ade to appear, therefore, th a t there will_be a com bination of in ternational4 and dom estic influences at work henceforth w ith respect to this governm ent’s gold policies. Domestically, the issue w as born In the presentation in congress of two bills designed to restore, partially at least, the status of this governm ent as regards the gold policies to that ob taining before the ,^devaluation o f the dollar. Sim ultaneously, form er Presi dent H erbert Hoover, in one of the few expressions m ade since retiring from office, declared his belief th a t the return of gold paym ents w as necessary and vital to stabilizing conditions and re-establishing th e U nited S tates In w orld favor. O f Coursei with the abundant D em o cratic m ajority in congress,-the gold bills w ili get now here very fa s t Like wise; M r. Hoover’s expression can and w ill result only in providing ammuni tion for New Deal supporters, whose answ er to criticism usually is a ques tion w hether it . is desired to return to the conditions.that caused the depres sion. N evertheless, I hear considerable dis. cussion to the effect th a t these ripples m ust be considered a s only tbe- begin ning. They will have the effect of caus ing many people to think about the problem. Discussions will take place in the homes and In the shops. T here will be those who contend for sound monqy of the old style. Equally vehe m ent defenders of the New Deal will arise. Thus, the issue becomes joined and it Is not outside the realm of pos sibility th a t m onetary questions w ill be come as im portant In 1936 a s they w ere in tbe B ryan free silver days. *. * * Now as to the practical operation of the gold rulings: _ ' T here can be no U p e ra tio n o f doubt th a t the Con- CoM Rtdings stitution gives con gress power to coin money and regulate It's value. The Suprem e court alw ays has sustained this power. So.' when congress, • by resolution, allowed President Roose velt to seize all of th e gold in this country and bold it in the treasury, it accomplished Indirectly that which it could not do directly. In this way it forced the Invalidation of thousands of private contracts wherein one party prom ised to m ake paym ents in gold. Congress m ade such paym ents impos sible and those who w ere to be paid have nothing left but disillusionm ent As to the gold paym ent clause in the governm ent bonds the Suprem e court said th at congress had no right to en act legislation the effect of which w as to void th a t paym ent I t would m ™ , therefore, th a t, some way should be found to force the governm ent to make good. T hat way lies only through the C ourt of Claim s of the United Statqs, and when ..that court is, denied jurisdiction In suits to recover, the bond holder Is left w ith a rig h t but th at right is unenforceable since the governm ent can be sued only w ith its permission. O n top of these circum stances, and an a long range proposition, consider, affie attention has been directed to the relationship between the gold clause decisions and inflation. T here is a dt- rSc t 1? 1?* ^ lt8 Mok, w ithout, doubt should be. w atched by all of those who think of the future of this nation Jnflatlon of the credit has been go ing on continuously since'M r. Roose velt .tpok office. The federal govern m ent has set no lim it to the borrowing which, it will undertake In its pro- gram fo r recovery. The Suprem e cojirt has said directly th at govern m ent securities a re w orth w hatever the adm inistration and congress de- tannine them to be w orth because the dollar can be valued up or dom - cum stances w arrant. ^ lll B ut the value which the p.. and congress place upon u,.6 m ay differ materially from th ( . which the public places upon rency. The public win view ih!?| Iar in term s of its purcnasine Public confidence In the cun? therefore, becomes an absolute T1 sity and once it is shaken, if «3 means anything, it takes a Io0.

Ufe in Crowded City Leads to Individualism The effect upon the human race of the cluttering together In huge cities is not easy to foretell, says a w riter In the M ontreal H erald. I know, of course, th at in the woods where trees crowd together too closely they grow up slender and spindling, to the loss of rugged strength. I suppose it Is true that the human race likewise deteriorates when crowded together too closely. But on the other hand there should be advantage. If knowl edge is power cities should develop power, for knowledge of man by man is exceedingly possible where men are throw n closely together. M utual ity ought to grow, the pressure of num bers should weld people together In closer communion. As a m atter of fact it does not. People In the back settlem ents are much more friendly than those in the towns. There _ is probably more ignorance about worth-while things in the city than In the country, certainly as much if not more selfishness. Curi ously enough, the city seems to prom ote individualism more than does the country. The city individual lives to himself. He does not know, nor care to know his next door neighbor. H e will deal with a mer chant for 20 years without knowing him. He is concerned with the pro motion of bis own interests. And that is not good for a person or for his world. Individualism can never better the race very much. Nothing can but co-operation. Country folk are learning that more quickly than townsfolk.

Uoney invested In nitrogen for spring application to small grain will pay larger dividends than any other investment made in the production of grain. The North Carolina Experiment Station has condacted a large num ber of tests to determine the value of various nitrogenous fertilizers, and the best amount to use. With wheat, 100 pounds of nitrate of soda will give five to eight bushels incre ase. At present prices, a five bushel increase will give $3.30 per acre a- boye the cost of nitrate of soda. Wheat will not give as large an in crease for the second hundred pounds -of nitrogenous fertilizer. For this reason 100 to 150 pounds of nitrate of soda is recommended. . Oats pay well for nitrate of soda up to 200 pounds. Usually the first hundred pounds will give 15 bushels increase and tbe second hundred from 10 to 15 bushels increase over the first. To get the best results, top-dress ing on small grain should be done early. The nitrate of soda can be applied broadcast over tbe small grain with out any covering, but it is advisable to run over the small grain after ap plying the nitrate of soda with a weeder or a drag harrow with the teeth turned back. Any of the w inter crops grow n for hay will pay good returns fo r 150 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre. T he nitrogenous fertilizer should be applied to the hay crops a t the same date for g ra in .._________ When the Dionne quintuplets reach the bridge age, one, of them certainly is going to get a break.— Louisville Times. shall be issued for the purpose of paying off a note of $37,750.00 due the Bank of Davie by the Board of Trurtees of : Mocks- ville Graded School District.

Despite the fact that the Legis Iature, led by Tam Bowie, killed the bill m aking it m andatory on a judge to send a man to the roads who had been convicted in the courts of driving a car while in toxicated, these gentry had better steer clear of Judge W ilson W ar- tick’s court. In Buncombe court, atA sheville, the past week the jurist let it be known th at any one convicted of driving while drunk will go to the chaingang, no m atter who or what the circum stances. H ere is what he said when he sentenced one Ponders to the roads for 12 m onths for stealing autom obile and also sent one H use to the roads for 60 days on a plain drunken charge: “ I don’t care if it be the son of the President of the U nited States. I ’m tired of these pleas for leniency for young boys who drive autom o biles while they’re drinking. It's all right to say that a prison sent ence will ruin tbeii lives; but the sam e boy is likely to kill or maim somebody else if this m ixing of whisky and gasoline isn’t stopped. “ Lbelieve if it were m ade m an datory on the courts to put every man found guilty of driving drunk and every man convicted of pubiic drunkenness on the chain gang it would go a long way tow ards stop ping the evils of iiquot and drunk' driving.” I t is an outrange th at the Legis lature defeated the very m eritorious bill th at would have sent an intoxi cated driver to the roads but the reason some of these legislators voted against this bill were purely "personal” as m any people know. But Judge W arlick can stop them where he holds court and he will do it. H e is not the caliber to take ‘•‘cold feet” on a proposition once he lays down the law. Colum nist C lark, in the G reens boro News com m enting on the de cision of Judge W arlick to attem pt to curb these drunken drivers says: “ T h at’s the talk judge. S trength to the resolution H is honor wili be pestered a lot by lawyers who will have clients they will argue should be excepted. But since he was a practicing attorney before he was judge, Judge W arlick is aware that be can avoid pesterm ent it he lets it be understood that he isn’t going to be pestered. H e has a- buudant support in his position that that prison sentences for drinkers will lessen the num ber. T he Ieg- istive defeat of the m andatory jail sentences for drinking drivers was in response to trem endous pressure to avoid that w hich is feared. Judge W arlick is, so far as observed, the first N orth Carolina Suprem e court judge to declare foi m andatory pri son sentences for the drinking driver w ith assurance that he will do the m andating. H e is setting a preced eut that m ay not be followed but he is the judge in his own court and he doesn’t have to ask any body’s consent or support. T he drinking drivers will probably try to avoid him but all of them can’t and some will leave off the com bi nation because they can’t be sure they m ay not appear in his court for judgm ent. T he certainty ot being sent to jail for the offense is more likely to operate to save the boys from a life of crim e than their im prisonm ent Is to m ake them cri m inals. Even if a • term on the roads m akes som e of them worse the public is entitled to first consi deration. It is a contradiction to argue th at to save a youngster from jail and the possibility of its evil ef fect on him he-m ust be privileged to ru n am uck w ith the probability of . killing and m aim ing. Judge W arlick has all the argum ent w ith him .” Doesn’t ThinkIt IsHere A ccording to the February 19 th issue of T he Observer, a professor of economics oi the W om an’s Col lege of G reensboro, speaking be fore the C harlotte W om an’s club, declared th at “ Recovery is here. We don’t know it, but it is here.” S trangesort of recovery, eh what? It is here, but we do not know it. Lots of people don’t know it. T he farm er who has to borrow his neighbor’s license tag to drive his model T to tow n to buy him self a hunk of 19 cents A A A fatback, does not know it; the thousand of m otor car owners whose m achines stand rusting in desuetude, and who are unable even to drive down to G eorgia and procure a three dollar license, don’t know it. Ten million unem ployed don’t know it. The national governm ent—F ran k lin D. Roosevelt—does not know it. Nobody know s recovery is here— because it is not here. Mesmeric phrases will not bring back prosperity. N either will pros perity need an interpreter w hen it returns. It speaks a language that bootblacks and bell hops under stand. And it will not be cloaked by invisibility. “ T he New Deal is just beginning —just laying plans,” averred the speaker. W ell, heaven help us, if th at’s true.

St. Petersburg, F la.— Repeal will bring about its own destruction in ten years, and then the U nited States will turn to perm anent pro hibition to solve the liquor evils, Billy Sunday, fam ous evangelist, predicted at the eh s ng session of the eighth annual Souihern con vention of the Anti-Saloon League. S hirt sleeved and shrill-voiced, last night he lam bas’ed booze as “ public enem y No. 1,” H e advocated a law holding the governm ent liable for accidents and loss of life on the highw ays attri butable to drunken drivers. H e charged th at the Dem ocratic P arty and repeallsts had failed 'to keep a single prom ise concerning the re turn of liquor. Against, tie Absentee Ballot. Few persons, officials or citizens in private life have anything good to say for the absentee ballot law It is generally recognized as an evil or a thing provocative of evil. Yet Y et an im pression has been gained by some observers in Raleigh, that this law w hich has caused so many election and prim ary, scandals in N orth Carolina m ay be retained pretty m uch “ as is.” G overnor E hringhaus has con dem ned the system ; the state board board of elections has cited its a- buses, and new spapers all over the state have pointed out its defects. Yet the "practical politicians” seem to lean tow ard it as the tim e for a show dow n nears in the G eneral Assembly. T hey apparently fear according t.o repprts that the De m ocrats will lose a few western counties if the absentee baliot is throw n out. W ell, the Dem ocrats should lose “ a few w estern counties,” if the only wav they can hold them is by trickery and fraud. If there are m ore R epublican voters in the couu ty than D em ocratic voters, the form er are entitled to elect their candidates to office and no ques tions asked. I t does little honor to the Dem ocratic party to retain a system easily m anipulated for pur poses of fraud in order to hold ’ ‘R e publican” or "doubtful” counties, and it is high tim e th at the party stand clear of such politics, or the intim ations of such politics. By standing clear of this isssue the D em ocratic party can restore m uch of its ancient prestige and lay the ground w ork for greater trium phs in the years to come. Charges of Dem ocratic irregularities in the conduct of elections in this state have lost' the party m any voters in th e past. — Tw in-C ity Sentinel. If any w ho owe us on account were w aiting until the G old ques tion was settled before paying we are now ready to receipt for same, Pensions And Rumors. Hon. R L. Doughton, chairm an of the Ways and m eans Com m ittee in the national congress, is nationally known as quite a level-headed man and he has branded the originator of the To vnsend pension plan as “ public enemy num ber one.” Townsend, aO alifornia m an, start ed the talk for old age pensions of $200 per m onth. This talk has gained nation-wide attention and has created a feeling am ong the people th at no good will come out of. It has created am ong the m inds of the people the impression that the governm ent is all pow erful in th at it can hand out money in vast sum s to everybody when as a m atter of fact the governm ent can spend only what the people can'pav in taxes, Paying every person over 55. $200 per m onth would mean doubling the present taxes. Doubling the present taxes would m ean the do,wnfall of millions and would result in chaos and revolution. It is an impossibility in every sense of the word. Old age pensions will come. They are on the present program but about one eighth of the proposed Townsend plan benefits will be paid, is our opin ion. Of coarse this money will have to be raised from the people. W hen the people of this nation rea lize that w hat the governm ent pass out m ust be paid to the governm ent by the people it will be easier for the governm ent to operate. Such men as Townsend poison the m inds of the people and make it difficult for the governm ent to actually present some thing workable.—W ilkes-Journal. “ M en w ith the courage to spend m oney’ ’ is w nat one business Iead- this iSS&try needl£ A l ways w illing to do out bit, we offer to go him fifty-fifty: If. he will furnish the m oney we’ll dig up the courage.

Its natural force, and human nature, are definitely working for recovery, and in May of this year, positively not later than July, the nation will know the depression is over.* Well, It is a pleasure to have some body at least say so, even though they may have to say it over and over year after year.

Los Angeles.—Just as Hollywood Is recovering from the fright and panic of the recent decency crusade a new goblin is raising a threatening head In many of the major motion picture stu flios. Dehydration is the polysyllabic and prosaic name of this newest menace which, according to reputable medical authority, is the cause of the ills which in recent weeks have laid many stars and featured players low in home and hospital sick beds, with Ann Harding currently the most celebrated victim. A -chemico-medical term, dehydra tion, before It became a modern movie malady, usually referred to the drying out process used on fruits, vegetables and other foodstuffs—such as prunes, apricots, raisins, etc., to preserve them for the market Lights Brilliant. “To deprive or to be freed of waiter or the elements of water,” is the dictionary definition of dehydration. And that, according to physicians, is Just what has happened, and is happening, to Ann Harding and other afflicted film celebrities—they have been deprived and sapped of necessary body water and serums by the action of new and more powerful lights now used on the studio stages.These lights are far more burning, glaring and potent than in the well remembered days of “klieg eyes.” Extra batteries of many huge arc lamps must be utilized to attain perfect results in filming.Used without diffusers or softening screens of any kind, which usually render the lights used in ordinary filming harmless, these big lamps shed a light so heavily charged with powerful actinic and ultra-violet rays that they sap the vital fluids of unwitting screen star, featured player and extra alike, who are exposed overlong to their hot glare. It’s No Joke. When at first personal physicians of Ann Harding and other players diag nosed the Ills of their celebrated pa tients as being caused by dehydration, Hollywood, traditionally skeptical, smiled . . . even laughed.But when the list of sick and ailing screen players reached arm’s length, and keen physicians blamed dehydration for the heavy colds, pneumonia attacks and skin ailments with which many were rendered hors du camera, the smiles vanished altogether. Expedition to Explore Yukon Territory Area Washington.—Exploration and mapping of an unknown region in the ex treme southwest corner of Yukon territory, Canada, will be the objective this spring of the National Geographic society’s Yukon expedition conducted by Bradford Washburn, conqueror of Alaska’s Mt Crillon, it was announced here by Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor1 presi dent of the society.The Canadian government Is inter ested in the work of the expedition and has extended its whole-hearted co operation.

II Peter- 3:18.PRIMARY TOPIC—When Peter Waa Old.JUNIOR TOPIC-LearnIng With Peter.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—How Peter Became a Great Leader.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —What Peter Did to Spread Christianity. * T O K E E P G L O R Y O F G R E C I A N A R T The method of review is always de termined by the grade and capacity of the class and the genius of the teacher. The suggestions made largely apply to the senior and adult classes. A good method of review will be to cast up to view the following great experiences in Peter’s life:I. Peter’s First Meeting With Christ (John 1:40-42).This involves his conversion and call. As a result of the Baptist’s testi mony two of John’s disciples left him and followed Jesus. Andrew, one of these, when he knew Christ because of having abode with him, brought his brother Peter to Jesus. Andrew de sired that Peter should have a knowl edge of Jesus, not merely through his testimony, but through personal experience. Andrew did a great piece of work, for Peter became one of the pillars of the church. Later Peter was called with Andrew to become fishers of men (Mark 1:16-18). The first call of Jesus was for salvation. Because he heeded the call to salvation, he now is called to definite service.II. Peter’s Great Confess.on (Matt 16:13-28).The disciples had been with the Lord for se\eral years. They had heard his wonderful words and witnessed his mighty works. And since Jesus was soon to go to the cross, it was necessary for. the disciples to have a true conception of him. In order to help them into the right conception, Christ provoked this confession from Peter as the spokesman for the group of disciples. Peter confessed Christ’s mes- siahship and deityship. The burning question then, as well as for the pres ent hour, is, "What think ye of Christ?” III. Peter’s Denial (Mark 14:27-72).A better statement would be “Peter’s Downfall.” Peter’s confession showed him Stij occupy a high position. From that lofty eminence to the depth of emphasizing a He by means of foul oaths Is a long way. The steps are clear and should. constitute a solemn warning Io all today:1. Over-weentng self-confidence (vv. 29-32). 2. Sleeping at the post of duty (vv. 32-37). 3. Neglect of prayer (v. 38). 4. Service in the energy of the flesh (v. 47).5. Following Jesus afar off (v. 54).6. Seeking comfort among the Lord’s enemies <v. 67).I. Open denial (w. 68-72). Peter’s troublt really began when he shrank from' the way of the crois.|V. Peter's Restoration (John 20:1-10; 21:11-19).As there were seven steps In Peter’s downfall, so there were seven steps in his restoration. 1. Christ’s prayer for Peter (Luke 22:31, 32).2. The look of Jesus (Luke 22:01, 62). 3. Christ’s message through the women (Mark 16:7).4. A personal interview with the ris en Lord (Luke 24:34). 0. Peter’s open confession of love (John 21:11-17). -- 6. 'His work given-back-(John-2i:17, 18). 7. Willingness to suffer for Christ (John 21:18, 19). - V. Peter at Pentecost (Acts 2:1-42).Peter, with the-rest of the disciples,came into a new experience at Pente cost. They came to know the outpour ing of the Holy Spirit as the fulfillment of Joel’s prophecy (Joel 2:28-32). VI. The Conversion ' of Cornelius (Acts 10:1-48).While Peter had the definite experience of Pentecost, he had not yet come to know the real meaning of the church... He .was-.,ignorant of. that: which God revealed through Paul (Eph. 3:1-5). He knew that'a tremendous change had come. He saw the old or der passing. It required the visitation of God to him by means of the sheet let down from heaven to show that the middle wall of partition bad now been broken down and that Gentiles who ac cepted the finished work of Jesus Christ were accepted on high the same as the Jew. Steps for Preservation of the Acropolis. Warned by a large landslide that the walls of the Acropolis are weakening, modern Athens is planning to reinforce with new buttresses the north and east walls of this rnin- crowned plateau which dominates the city. It will be aeons before mere weather fissures can destroy this time-defying collection of ruins, which has survlve’d the attacks of barbarians, gunpowder and. lightning, according to the National Geographic society. Although greatly changed from the once magnificent temples with delicately colored friezes above glistening columns, the remaining edifices on the Acropolis still awe the beholder into contemplation of the days when this plateau .was covered with the most beautiful art of Greek antlaulty. The Acropolis of Athens looms beside the modern city as a rugged limestone plateau, approximately 1,000 by 500 feet. About 512 feet above sea level. It is an excellent vantage point Prom it one can look across busy Athens’ white houses, vineyards and groves of figs and olives to the encircling purple hills, Searcbeth Out Perfection Surely thei*e Is a Vein foi^the silver, and a place for the gold where they fine it Iron is taken out of the earth, and brass is molten cut of the stone. He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: thestones of darkness, and die shadow of 'death.—Job .28, 1-3. _ ■ ' Happiness Let me but have,time to my thoughts, but leisure to think of -heaven and grace to niy leisure; and I can be happy In spite of the world.—Josepfr-Hall.. scarred with white gashes of marble quarries, and far beyond them to the glittering blue Aegean sea. Partly girdled by strong walls, the Acropolis afforded splendid protection to early Athenians fleeing from land Invaders and pirates. Two parallel “long walls,” built about 250 yards apart and approximately 60 feet high, Insured communication at ail times with Piraeus, approximate ly six miles away, which, - then as now, was Athens’ harbor and a source of food supply.. In return for the protection of the Acropolis, grateful Athenians erected on it temples and statues sacred to Athena Pollas, "guardian of the state.”Between 445 B. C. and 431 B. C. the Acropolis was at the height of its grandeur. While a treaty held the restless Spartans at bay, the esthetic ruler, Pericles, commissioned the sculptor Phidias to beautify, the sanctuary.The Acropolis In Its full glory must have been tremendously Impressive. One ascended to it through a stately marble gate-house, the Propylaea. There, within a short compass, stood the sanctnary of Artemis, and the delicate airy-look- ing temple of Athena Victory. The Erechtheum, with the roof of Its porch supported lightly on the erect heads of marble dancing girls, was not completed until later. Crowning the summit of the Acrop olis loomed the Parthenon, with sev enteen strong, simple columns on each side, eight at each end.

Thera are many problems. Thirteen word! look, on the lips, like “bad” (“man,I “mad,” “band,” etc.); twelve look exactly like “fade” (“vein,” “feigned,” etc.); “juice,” “chews,” and “shoes” look alike, and so do “honor” and- “otter” (although you can be fairly sure that It’s “honor”). We were Interested to learn that the word “king” is the hardest word to lip-read In the English lauguage: the “k” and the ^fig" are deep In the throat, and the short “i” hardly moves the lips at all. Men's lips are harder to read than women’s, because men’s lips are less flexible.-* The Kew Torker. Coin Squeezer.

From a 4.000-acre ranch, th e ir holdings have shrunk to a sm all farm and the old family home In Clippersville. CHAPTER I—Continued —2— The widowed elderly father did the best he could for them all until his oldest son was nearly eighteen and Gall a capable, bustling house manager two years younger.

Then Pnil and Gail had to shoulder the burden. Gail Lawrence was su- premelv the girl for the job. She was cquorely built, womanly at sixteen, brimming with interests, activities, am- btti.ms. and enthusiasms. By tlds time the once lucky Law rences had almost no money. Phil had gil bur finished high school, anil all the friends, relatives, and neighbors said that certainly a bright fine boy like that Oiiciit to complete his course. But as Phil and Gail quite simply agreed, meals were more important (ton education. So Phil stopped his schooling and went to work at the Iron Works, and Gail, upon being of fered a job In the public library, accepted it gratefully. They scrambled along in the disreputable old house very happily; they were always laughing, singing, going on picnics; they were passionately devoted to each other, and everyone was anre that they would get along splendidly. Were they not the last of the Lucky Lawrences? Surest of all was Gail, the resolute, undaunted, optimistic mother and sister, eook, nurse, and lawmaker In one. Life had been a story to Gail, for a few years, and she bad turned a fresh page eagerly every day. She and Edith were going to marry delightful men, and Phil should marry, too. And Sammy should live In Edith’s house and Ariel In Gail's, and Ariel should write won- 4etlu\ poetry. There would be plenty ot money for everything, as there al ways had been . . . soon. But somehow it had not worked out that way. Gaii had grown a little more sober, a little thinner, as the years had slipped by; they had all grown shabbier. Even to her, poverty began to seem a serious matter. Phil, to her concern, had never quite seen the joke of being poor and being orphaned. He had always been brief, worried, and unresponsive when Gail had tried to drag him into her dreams. And Edith hated poverty, too; it hurt her pride. She had grown quieter, bookish, intellectual, something of a recluse. Sammy had done nothing except slide through his shoes and get “L> minus” marks In his studies. And. Ariel was completely spoiled. They had all hailed her as a poet before she could fairly write. She did write Poetry, and that was enough for Clip persville. Clippersville was not critical, The Challenge published everything Ariel wrote And Ariel was dis contented, proud, and unmanageable. Altogether, the outlook was discour aging, and promised to grow more so. There were moments when even Gall could not quite believe In the luck of the Lawrences. Her twenty-third birthday found her a quick-witted, eager, capable girl, secretly a little bit scared and doubtful, hut outwardly gay, irresponsible, and pleasant to look at—like all the Law rences. Even the boys never seemed ™ go through lumpy or spotty phases, out were dean-skinned and bright- Cfed through boyhood as through babyhood, The Oiqer fonr had tawny thick hair, which had tumbled all over their heads as children, but which on occasions could be 'made to take more flttIng positions. Ariel was different: frail, pink cheeked, and cream-skinned, with frightened big hazel eyes and a small mouth, Ariel’s hair was corn-silk gold. Phil worked in the Iron Works for O’ghty dollars a month, Gsiil was paid half that monthly for a seven-day .week in the public library, Edith made thirty dollars a month as assistant In the hook department of Muller’s big store, nammy was supplementing his school careOr at nineteen with eager labors hs errand boy and general office, help on the Challenge and Ariel was sup posed to be in high school. Ariel was how a fairylike seventeen. And Gail was twenty-three today, “he had presents at the breakfast “hie in the good old Lawrence fashion. Nobody knew where they came from, or who paid for them, but the Law rences always managed to give each- other presents on anniversaries. Then Gail and Edith rushed the •breakfast paraphernalia into the sink. Ariel was off to school, PhU had dis appeared; Sammy had gone first of an- The two girls scrambled through necessary kitchen work with a ; *Peed born of long practice. The big kitchen was shaded, was In order. The cold water faucet dribbled suddenly, audibly, in the sUence, as Gall and Edith, breathless and hot, paused.at the ball .door. .Edith crossed the, splintery floor to turn off the tap. Then Gail and Edith went upstairs, passing the open front door on their way. They hesitated a minute, looking into the jungle of garden. There was a hush of spring, green grass, contra band daisies, and a burst of untidy bridal wreath down by the old fence. “Look at the pear tree, Gall!” “Doesn’t it just take your breath away?” They shut the door and went upstairs, Gall saying of the unmade beds, “Let’s flap ’em.” Edith’s face clouded a little. She hated compromise and slovenliness; she hated the hard conditions of her life that made some truce with them necessary. The clock on the landing struck once, for the half hour after eight; she was due at the department store, and Gail at the library, at nine, “We’U have to,” she conceded briefly, sighing. “Fll bet you they flap ’em In the most expensive hotels!” Gail stated daunt- lessly. “I shouldn’t have worn my office dress to breakfast," the older sister observed, glancing at her cuffs. She got a bottle of some cleaning extract, and began to dabble at spots. “Egg!” she said disgustedly. Her glance approved of Edith. “That looks better on you than it ever did on Mary Tevis," she observed. Edith studied herself in the mirror dispassionately.“I never would have gotten it,” she said. “I don’t like dots. But it certainly has come In usefully.” “The worst of Mary Tevls is, she’ll give you a bunch of things one time, and then forget you for seven years I” Gail, having made herself compara tively presentable, said briskly, “Now, when Fm rich, I shall have a list of girls— D—n such a shoe lace!” “Abigail, you ought not say that You’ll get Ariel saying it.” Gail mended her lace, looked up with a flushed face.“Didn’t you think Ariel was beautiful at breakfast, Ede?”“Oh, yes, she really is.”“Do you think—this may all be my “We Are Stuck In Clippersville— Nobody Knows We’re Alive.” imagination—but do you think she’s interested in boys, already?”Their eyes flashed together con sciously.“Oh, yes, I know she is!” Edith an swered unhesitatingly.“She’s only seventeen!”“Well,” said Edith, who combined a1 recluse’s sensitiveness and temperament with an occasional flash of daring, 'I was fond of the boya at sixteen."Edith, pretty as she was, had never had a beau, and Gail knew it But it was the unwritten law of sisterhood not to say sc. Gall merely said perfunctorily, “Oh, well, yes, so was I! But, Edith, there seems to be something-different, in the way-Ariel is.”The younger sister’s quick keen gaze was lifted; Edith’s serious look met Gail’s consciously.“Secretive,” she offered.“Well! WelL yes,” Gail answered on a nervous laugh. “Ariel will get married before either one of us, because we happen to be a little more particular!” Edith pro nounced, with her little air of old- maidish snobbery. When Edith said things like that it vaguely irritated GaiLShe left Edith at Montalvo boulevard,, and turned up the-Calle to the Plaza, where the Ubrary stood.“Heavenly day I" GaB said to Francis WUcoxi the librarian. ■“Fine what about those slips? Mr. Wilcox answered without punctuation. “They’re here.” „The day had begun. Gail unhasped the street door, and the usual waiting group of stragglers came In. MlssFoster damped the newspapers lnto their holders; Uttle Rose OahUl wheeled wire crates full of books to the1 different cases, and Oail took them from the barrows and «sd them away in their places. The dim big rooms saw various noiseless activities afoot. Gail, thought of her youngest sister, as the dreamy dim hours in the library began to slip by. Ariel was less fitted than any of the other Lawrences for the struggle of life. She was only an innocent, bewildered child. She wanted—in 'fact all of them wanted—leisure and beauty and luxury In life. Ariel seemed to want it more than the others, somehow, or, In some indefinably different way. She seemed made for beautiful gardens, beautiful porches, spacious, luxurious rooms. She pined, she dropped, In the atmosphere of poverty, griminess, dullness.• Thinking of all this, Gail abstractedly stamped and’ scribbled, and tossed the books about. • When the whistles droned noon, and a sudden responsive pang of hunger stabbed her, she put on her blue hat and walked up the street to Muller’s, to meet Edith. Edith, neat, cool, and clean, lifted an ecstatic look to GaU as she decorously finished the sale of seven novels to a passing motorist. The girls idolized and Idealized each other, and were proud of their friendship. AU the passion of the younger sister’s rather cold nature was In the look; this was one of her awaited moments every day, when her flushed, adored, tousled Gail came in and they went to luhcb together. » They went in at the side door to the home kitchen, and let up the shade, and began their preparations for lunch. The kettle was boiling over a bead of gas, for Ariel always came in promptly at twelve, and had her lunch and was gone before the older girls arrived. Edith sat wearily, luxuriously, over roUs, honey, and tea, her eyes absent, her hand idly stirring the cup. “Gail, I was thinking that we ought to learn some more poetry, as we do the beds. ‘Member how we used to rattle it off, when we were little girls?” “Oh, do I? ‘The Lady of Shalott’ and ‘Grandmother’s Story of Bunker Hill’ and ‘The Lost Leader' and James Whitcomb BiIey—” “We ought to do it again I It was Iote of fun. I’d like to learn Noyes’ ‘Highwayman,’ and some of Hodgson’s poems, ‘Eve’ and ‘The Old BulL’” “Ede, do you suppose things’ll ever be any easier for us? Do you suppose we’ll have clothes and a car, some day, and belong to a country club?”Edith pondered it.“I—don’t really—know," she said at last hesitatingly. “I mean,” GaU fumbled along Wist fully, “poor people—people who have a hard start—do.” “Yes. I know they do!”“Edith, I could stand anything for myself. But it worries me—about PhU and ArieL” “I don’t think Phil mliids being poor so much—not since he’s been going with LUy Cass,” Edith offered. “Well, I think I want him to mind I I don’t think PhU is ambitious,” Gall countered, with an anxious little laugh. “Maybe we’re foolish ourselves,” Edith said, suddenly gloomy. “Maybe our luck’s changed.” “Fooling ourselves?”“Yes. Do you think we are?” “I don’t think I quite understand you,” Gall said uncomfortably. “Oh, yes you do!” Edltb answered with a laugh.“You mean,” Gail said soberly, after a space, “that we aren’t getting any where?” “Well, are we? We are stuck In CUppersville,” Edith • summarized It. “Nobody knows we’re alive. WeTe not In debt, because the doctors and den tists won’t send us bills—but we ought to. be We haven't any clothes, any social standing-!^”“Oh, we have that, Ede!"“Well, if we have, if we are the. Lucky Lawrences, if we were one of the most important families in California, once, what are we now? Who’s going to marry us? Who is there here for us to marry, anyway? What’s to prevent our living on and on here, old maids, scraping along as best we can— Phil marrying that horrible Mrs. Cass, Sam getting a job somewhere and going away, Ariel—committing suicide, I suppose—’’“Oh, Edith, Edith!” Gail protested horrified. “Don’t talk Uke that! You’re blue. You’re just tired today, or it’s spring, or something! Why, darling, nobody knows where changes are coming from, or when. We're having our hard times now instead of later, that’s all! We'll have dresses and country clubs and trips and—and fun, theaters, I mean, and everything, one of these days!”Edith’s grave. Intellectual face was doubtful.“You’re twenty-three,” she suggested significantly.“I don’t think I mind for myself! I mind for you,” Edith said as they walked back to work. “You ought to be having good times, You ought to be. dancing, and going to little restaurants, and—and everything.”,“And so ought you!" GaU answered cheerfully, although she felt a knife In her heart. «0h, I—!” Edith dismissed herself Ughtly, and immediately feU into that silly strain' for which GaU could find no better expression than1 “old maidy.” “I have a feeUng," Edith went on complacently, “that Iwill meet my husband and be married to him all In a very short time. You know that fortune teller that was at Mabel’s—”:. “I wish she wouldn’t talk- that way!” Gall thought, suddenly hot, irritable, and discouraged. :■ She felt more weary and discouraged as she went on her way.

"Before I began my act, I always made sure to teU the audience that I did not believe In mind reading, that my act was the result of four years’ study and mental training. I had to memorize, to develop, a code with my assistant, of 2,100 words, and to know the names of all famous generals, the capitals of all countries, the names of Bteamships, etc. "One evening after I, blindfolded, had been reading the numbers on bills for people, I heard, In the creaky tones of an old gentleman’s voice, some one challenging me defiantly. “‘You can't teU me what I have in my pocket.’” “ ‘An elderly gentleman In tbe audi ence says I cannot tell what he has in his pocket,’ I repeated. “‘How do you know I am elderly?1 he retorted.“'Yon, sir,’ I began in a portentous voice, ‘have In your pocket a passport to Europe . . . Your name is W. L. Cowen; you are sailing iate tonight on the steamship—’ “In the meantime, I was receiving by code, from my assistant In the aisle, the word Skythia. I knew that there had been some error, that there was no steamship by that name. As I groped for the right word, there flashed through my mind the headlines of the morning papers: “Steamship Scythia makes maiden voyage today.’ “I finished the sentence, rYou are sailing on the steamship Scythia.’ “Because I was annoyed at the man’s antagonism to my work, I added: “‘Moreover, you are going to have a bad voyage and you will never make another trip to Europe.’“Four weeks later I received a letter from England. It read: “ ‘We, the undersigned, take the priv ilege of writing to you. We believe this to be a matter of world importance.“ ‘We were in the audience the night you told a man that bis name was W. L. Cowen and that he was sailing for Europe on tbe steamship Scythia. We, too, were sailing on the Scythia; we were being sent to England to do psychic research for the University of Pennsylvania.‘“After your performance, we went to see if there was a Mt. Cowen on the boat’s passenger list We found there was not but the next morning we saw his name on the additional list That evfening, we wanted to speak with him to discuss your read ing; but he was sitting at the captain’s table, and we decided to wait for a more opportune time. The following morning he was found dead in • his cabin. “‘We want to know if you had a puychic message that he would never take another trip to Europe.“I put the letter down. To this day, any time I hear of anyone sailing to Europe,, the thought of that coincidence comes to me and makes me shudder.” Use Dogs in Ghost Hunt . in “Haunted” Farm House Every Dight half a dozen armed mep accompanied by dogs, watch at a 400- year-old farmhouse, South Reston HalL near Louth, Lincolnshire, England, because mysterious things had been reported happening there. The dogs are present because it Is believed that canine senses are more sensitive to supernatural manifestations than are the senses of human beings.Here are some of the strange, and at present unexplained, incidents which have occurred: Room thrown into confusion; food taken from the pantry; soot thrown down the chimneys; large holes made through a celling, and a bed slept In.A young woman asserts that twice she has seen an “animal having a pointed nose and' bushy tail” Sha fainted when she saw it. One- theory is that an escaped monkey, hiding In a false roof of the house, is responsible, but a search failed to locate either a monkey or any other In truder. :The master of the East Lincolnshire Otter Hounds took his dogs and a ter rier into the root Apparently scent ing something, the terrier barked furiously at one spot, but nothing was found.

W ATER FLEA OF GREAT VALUE IN SCIENTIFIC W ORK Dr. Anno Viehoever of FhUadel- phia has bee:- experimenting with the water flea. That tiny creature is transparent Under the miscroscope one can watch its muscles contract and relax, its breathing go on, its meals get chewed, digested and dis posed of, its heart pulsate, and its eyes gleam as it glances this way and that. A wonderful eye it has, this tiny relative of the shrimp, lobsters and crabs. Human beings have but a single lens for each eye. . The water flea’s well-muscled eye has twenty lenses. No fish can catch it unawares, for it can look In virtually every direction at once, and dodge away from threatened danger. The water flea even responds to ultraviolet light rays invisible to human eyes.Drugs act on the water flea very much the same way as on bumaD be ings. DOctor Viehoever administered chloroform to one of these almost Invisible creatures. Then, with the aid of a camera and a microscope he took motion pictures showing just bow the chloroform was slowing down the action of the water flea’s heart Then he administered the active Ingredients of digitalis—and brought back to normal the action of the water flea’s heart.Such an investigation as that means opportunity to study the chemical and physiological mechanism involved In the action of drugs. It means opportunity, for instance, to try to find out what combination of substances the physician must use to regulate a misbehaving heart beat In human beings and to try to bring It back to normality. The “Normal Child” The conception of the “inner na ture” of the child In progressive edu cation is actually so idealistic that it is entirely unfair to .most normal boys and girls. For it assumes quite blandly that the average child is by his very nature intelligent, talented, self-reliant, reasonable and sociably inclined. That he has within himself the ability to make logical judgments and form sensible opinions. But the sad and sober truth Is that the aver age healthy child has very few of these essentially adult traits of mind and character.The average chUd is selfish, he is stubborn, he is forgetfub he is crueL he is illogical. His sense of humor Is of. an extremely low variety. And his inherent taste,'Judged by civilized adult standards, is rather atrocious.The child is like this not because he has been poorly trained or badly conditioned or harshly repressed, but simply because he Is a normal child. —-Dr. Grace Adams In Scribner’s Magazine.

B y EDWARD W. PICKARD /©, Western Kewspeper Union. Senator Norris T HE President’s special message calling for abolition of utility bolding companies stirred up a storm that probably surprised even sncb an astute politician as Mt. Roosevelt. The President urged legislation to abolish those holding companies which were unable to show they were operated In the public Interest. Representative Bertrand H. Snell, Republican leader, immediately attacked the message, claiming the President had de nounced propaganda against the proposed legislation, and was himself propagandizing for it Utility compa nies also swung into the battle, and thousands of investors in utility stocks are reported to have sent in protests to congress. In the senate,' Norris, Nebraska Republican, offered a resolu tion calling upon the federal trade commission to investigate propaganda regarding the legislation. The senate approved without debate. Charges were made by utility companies that because of the administration’s campaign against public utilities “the value of utility securities bas declined by three and one-half billion dollars since 1933.” Enactment of legislation to halt holding companies will cause enormous loss to the American family, one power official testified before the house interstate commerce committee. G REECE is mopping up the loose ends of the revolt. Some fighting is reported near the Bulgarian border where one regiment, part of the rebellious Fourth army corps, bas declined to surrender, but the revolution is definitely over. Eleutherios Veni- zelos, ex-premier, and leader of .the futile revolt, was reported a refugee at Rhodes, the tiny, island where Julius Caesar was interned by pirates some 2,500 years ago. Venizelos was tran ferred there by the Italian government after be had been landed in Italy I y one of the rebel warships. Gen. Georj e Karmenos, rebel commander, is sate in Bulgaria, where officials have re fused extradition. Rebel prisoners a e being concentrated in camps, at u courts martial are functioning in Saloniki, Kavaia and Larissa, and mil tary trials have begun in Atben*. It is believed that only a few of the most flagrant rebels will suffer the death penalty. Venizelos is almost certain to be court-martialed in absen tia, and banished forever. His elab orate home in Athens, and bis valuable library have already been confiscated and will likely be converted to public use. Italy has refused to extradite him, although it is possible that new demands will be made by tbe Greek government, who will claim that he took funds from a bank in Crete. Unless he is surrendered, he will probably move to Paris where his two sons now reside. T HE senate smacked down Senator Huey Long for his filibustering tacties and his efforts to amend the administration's $4,880,000,000 work relief measure The KingSsh bad demanded alterations In the work relief bill whlcn would take $100,000,000 away from tbe $600,000,000 earmarked for CCC work and allot It to students in colleges and universities. Long's amendment was defeated by a vote of 68 to 27. To prove that old adage of "politics makes 8trange—bedfellows,” Long was aided by Senator Hiram Johnson of California, who declared that the senate should have something to say about methods for spending the huge sum sought by the President. Johnson has heretofore been considered a supporter of the President. Long’s amendment brought forth other proposed changes which should keep the senators busy arguing for several days. The bonus bill may be dragged In and an attempt made to make it a rider to the relief measure, and inflationists and leaders of other “Ists” will.insist on having their say. A LL outstanding first Liberty loan bonds have been called for redemption by Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau. The $2,000,000,000 outstanding has been called for June 15, before which time the treasury will likely offer lower Interest-bearing securities In exchange for the first Liberties, saving the government some $14,000,000 In annual Interest charges "^EW Deal policies took two more ’ batterings as Federal courts held both the AAA and NRA unconstitution al as regards Intrastate business. The administration might find some consolation in another ruling which held the radical Frazler-Lemke farm mortgage bill was valid. Federal Judge Merrill E. Otis, at Kansas City, declared the Frazler-Lemke law was constitutional,' "although unwise In many of Its provisions and almost Incomprehensible matter.” Judge Otls said bis ruling was sot the first In which the act was upheld, and that an appeal was already before the United States Supreue court and a decision might be expected short ly. The 4 & A was declared invalid as regards intrastate business by Federal Judge Ira Lloyd Letts at Providence,, R. I, who Issued an injunction restraining Secretary of Agriculture Wal lace from enforcing the act against three Rhode Island retail milk dealers, on the grounds that their business was conducted entirely within the state, and the national government had no right to Interfere. At Newark, N. J., Federal Judge Guy L. Fake ruled the na tional recovery act unconstitutional as applied to Intrastate commerce “be cause It attempts an nnlawful delega tion of legislative authority.” The lat ter decision agrees^yith that handed down by Federal Judge Nields In the controversial Weirton steel dispute. C hancellor adolph h itler’s“diplomatic” cold is over, and he will welcome Sir John Simon, British foreign secretary, to a conference beginning March 24. Accompanying Sir John will be Capt Aijtbony Eden, lord privy seal, and disarmament authority. After the Berlin visit Eden will go to Moscow to talk with Soviet leaders. The Berlin conferences will discuss legaliza tion of Germany’s rearmament in exchange for an air Locarno pact with Great Britain, France, Italy, and Bel gium, and an eastern security pact with Poland and Russia. Limitation of armament by ail nations will also be taken up. The visit is complicated by a re cent announcement that Germany possesses military aviation in violation of the Versailles treaty. Because of this, France may invoke the Rome accord with Italy and Franco-Britisb declaration at London in support of its move to keep -the reicb from giving the air force official sanction. S ECRETARY OF THE-TREASURY MORGENTHAU revealed plans to dip into profits from gold seizure to retire $674,625,630 of tbe national debt through the" use of gold certificates. Po tentially Inflationary, it will deprive national banks of the power to Issue currency, and save tbe government an annual Interest charge of $13,500,000. Questions on inflationary implications were avoided by treasury officials, but thev ad mitted the plan would “put gold back to work which can be expanded.” The maneuver will place In the bands of the federal reserve banks $674,625,630 of gold certificates, which must be used as backing for issue of the same sum In federal reserve notes to retire the bonda Note issue against tbe bonds could be expanded if currency demands warranted, to about SI,687.500,000, since a federal reserve note need not be backed by more than 40 per cent gold or gold certificates In like percentage What will happen will be tbe immediate simplification oi our currency system. The treasury and federal reserve banks will have all the authority to issue money. Tbe ptan involves retirement on August I of $674,625,630 of 2 per cent federal securities and substitution of federal reserve notes for $657,937,080 of outstanding national bank currency. These bonds will be retired with sur plus funds created by devr’tdng the Roosevelt dollar from 100 cents to 59.06 cents, gold. The total profit was $2,812,000,000.’National ’ bank- notes IasCred • by- -national banks against federal securities represent more than one-tenth of the nation’s circulating currency. The administration’s program likely means the permanent abandonment of the na tional bank note which has been used since the Civil war. The circulation privileges expire on all bonds deposited by banks and held In trust by the treasury on July 22, 1935, except on two issues. By calling for redemption the treasury will retire all securities bearing “circulation privilege” and na tional banks will no longer have suitable security for -Issuance-of- their own notes. SecretaryMorgenthau S-1 OMPlete collapse of tbe- admin- istration’s long battle to regulate prices In the steel industry is seen In an NRA offer to give up, and In charges by the federal trade commission of a fiasco of collusion. The trade commission Insists that price- fixing be scrapped, and no prosecution of.steel companies under the anti trust .,laws. _The trade commission charges that under the code the steel companies have fixed and raised prices on government contracts, in defiance of competitive bidding requirements. Bids were identical, and then steel executives slapped fines of $10 a ton on members who let the government have steel cheaper, the commission says. D EMONSTRATORS numbering approximately 2,000 mar tied Into the Minnesota state capltol at St, Paul and harangued leglslntore with demands In behalf of the Idle ranks. Threats were made to picket tbe capltol untebe demands were aet. T HE house appropriations commit tee favorably reported out the Department of Agriculture appropriations bill for the 1936 fiscal year. A cut of S513,878,75S was due largely to a $411,022,- 428 slash in the AAA item. The total bill calls for $653^78,758, of which $570,000,000 would go to the Agriculture Adjustment administration activities. At committee hearings it was explained that it is impossible to esti- .. mate how much would Setfy Wallace Jlave t0 be obligated because of the crop control program, but the A AA Item was a rough estimate of processing tax collections and Is not controlling. Henry Wallace, secretary of agriculture, told the commit tee that tbe farmers’ share of the na tional income is now about 10.2 per cent, and that it should be 13 to 16 per cent Wallace said “true prosperity” can not come “until there bas been a very materia] increase in tbe output of phys ical goods, industrial goods.”“If in some way it were possible to turn out 50 per cent more industrial goods at a price definitely lower than the present price,” the secretary testified, “tbe result would be to make it possible for agriculture to buy more with the agricultural dollar and there would be more factory workers to be fed In the cities.” E1VEN though the senate will not act immediately on the "pink slip” bill to repeal Income tax publicity, income tax figures will not be available to the public for six months, according to internal revenue officials. While it Is likely the publicity act will be repealed, the house having so voted, it is not an ticipated that the senate will act on tbe measure for some time. Even though the latter might not act favorably, there remains considerable work to be done before the figures can be made pubiic, and income tax payers may be confident that prying neighbors cannot have immediate access to such information. In tbe senate a drive bas been started for higher federal income and corporation taxes. F RENCH courts have formally indicted 19 persons, including Mrs. Stavisky, for the Stavisky scandal that rocked the government after tbe financial debacle, which caused losses of millions of francs to investors, had broken, Stavisky, known as “Handsome Alex,” died from a gunshot wound as police tried to arrest him in January, 1934, A FTER twenty months of bar- 4* gaining, tbe documents conveying full title to the Chinese Eastern rail way to Manchukuo were initialed In Tokyo, thus eliminating Russia as a factor in Mancbukuo. The written ap proval of the agreements was signed by Koki Hirota, Japanese foreign minister; Dr. Constantine Youreneff, So viet ambassador to Japan; and by Gea Ting Shib-Yuan, Mancbukuoan minister of finance. The consideration was 140,000,000 yen. or about $39,300,000. The documents require that all three governments approve them before their formal signing about March 23. Thus Is ended forty years of Russo-Japanese contention for domlnatioa A NEW gold suit is menacing admin-, istration finaneing and money pol icies. The suit reopening tbe question of investors’ claims for payment of 1,800 million dollars of government bonds in gold or an equivalent, is brought by Robert A. Taft, son of the late chief justice, over the sum of $1.07. Taft demands either payment of bonds in gold or suspension of all refunding of the gold clause certificates. Before going to court, Taft presented to tbe treasury a $50 gold clause Uberty bond and four $1.07 Interest coupons attached, and demanded gold for both, but was refused. The suit may force tbe administration to close the loopholes left by tbe Supreme court decisions, if that is possible. T MfiT-Mentiieta' adffiinistifftioff In Cuba bas established a military dictatorship over tbe island, constitutional law bas been suspended, the deatb penalty for rebels imposed, and military governors designated for Havana and provinces. Washington is watching tbe situation with keen interest. Bombings and rioting are in creasing, according to reports, witb ten dead and fifteen injured. The objectives of the opponents of the government is tbe removal from office of President Mendieta and Colonel Ful- gencio Batista, chief of the army. The "strike tfas' fiecome'almost’ general, nearly paralyzing all activities In the island. Repressive- measures taken by the government to quell the strikers strongly resemble the strong-arm methods prevalent in the Machado regime, according to observers.’ T HE senate passed the army appropriation bill, and It now goes to the house. Tbe measure adds $20,000,- 000 to the original bill, making the total-appropriation of .$400X10(1,000 almost a record high, and will add 46 ,- 250 to our army strength, making tbe total of enlisted men 165,000. Warm talk flowed freely as the senate debated the measure. Senator Lewis said that conflict might -come between Russia and Japan and he asked: “with the army of Russia and the navy of Japan, where do wo stand!” Senator McAdoo also speaking In favor of the bill said: ■ • “Unless we want to contlnue to be a boob nation, wo will not hesitate to make this Increase In the army, it la Iustlllod by the wisdom and the neces- >ltle« of Btitiofial defense.” National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart N ational P ress B uilding W ashington, R Cl Washington--Most observers and thinking citizens have beer, inclined to take little stock In Long and the talks of Huey Coughlin lodS 8113 FathCoughlin, the radio priest, concerning plans for redistribution of wealth. The consensus has been that their plans sooner or later would fall of their own weight But it Mn be denied n< longer that Long and Coughlin have developed a gigantic fol lowing of people who lack Information as to the fallacies of the arguments, however logical they sound, that have been spread by these politically smart showmen. One-reason that serious attention to IhMr proposals Is now necessary is that some of their arguments are being ad vanced from hlgL places In the federal .government I refer specifically to the testimony before the house committee on banking and currency by Marriner S. Eccles, governor of the Federal Reserve board and as such the titular head of the nation’s banking system. Mr. Eccles did not quite take a leaf out of Huey Long’s book. He approached the position of the Louisiana senator, however, when he proposed a redistribution of Income, whereas Sen ator Long has urged a redistribution of wealth. Mr. Eccles suggested in his testimony in effect that it would be all right for a man with say ten million dollars in capital to keep that sum, provided his Income was redistributed. Mr. Eccles went back to the days immediately fol lowing the World war to illustrate his argument and showed that at the top »f the post-war boom “one tenth of one per cent of the families at the top of the income received as much as 42 per cent of the families at the bottom of the list.” Furthermore, he said that the single average family In the big income class got as much as four hundred families at the bottom of the in come list “This one-tenth of I per cent was unable to use all the income In consumption,” he continued. “They therefore had to find an outlet In the Investment field. As a result tbe capacity to produce Increased out of all proportion to the capacity to consume.” So Mr. Eccles took the position that a solution of the depression was a redistribution of this income with tbe idea that it would increase purchasing power in the lower brackets. The governor offered no explanation of bow those In the lower income class were going to obtain possession of the redistributed income of the rich because his argument stopped at the point where the government would take this -money by taxation. That Is the recognized weakness of the programs advanced by Senator Long and Father Coughlin, and Gov ernor Eccles showed no ability to solve the problem.• • • . On top of the outbursts by Long and Coughlin and the serious testimony by * Governor EcclesProposes comes Senator Niye Central Bank ttle North Dakota progressive, with a bill In the senate to create a central bank. Senator Nye’s action has caused many humorons expressions. Here we have a senator who has fostered, even boasted about, progressive Ideas and has called himself a IiberaL It Is necessary only to recall that the father of the central bank Idea was the ultra- conservative Alexander Hamilton, the first secretary of the treasury.Senator Nye advances a bill with the thought that the central bank would avoid hamstringing of credit. I think financial experts all agree that this is tru$. The. thing which Senatw Nye overlooked- however, is thatisir. Hamilton’s central bank collapsed and brought ruin and grief to thousands. The reason it collapsed was because In removing control of the banking facilities from experienced bankers, the whole thing had been turned- over to the control of politicians who, generally speaking, are experienced only In politics, it seems paradoxical that the North Dakota senator should advance as a liberal scheme the creation of a centra] bank which one hundred and fifty years ago represented the height of conservatism: "The Nye legislation - was offered -In the same week that Governor Eccles had proposed In his testimony on the banking bill In the house that the Fed eral Reserve board Shoeld have complete control of the credit evp»nei^n and contraction In this country. I believe most persons win have difficulty In considering the two schemes as sen- e-ate and distinct It Is to be noted that there are at least ninety-nine radical members of the i house of representatives who are convinced-that the fed&al reserve ,tS purPoses- Most beenrePeatIng without rhyme o. reason the accusation that bankers are “refusing” to make imm. They think, therefore, that If there is a CMtrei bank or If credit contSd m placed In the reserve board and take- away from the federal reserve S where It now-reposes there w«l be^L dltlonai loans forced ouY of tL ®^ mercial banks. History.indicate w ever that this is fallacious. Jte ness is going to borrow money when* 3oeSnT need it and neither i« loan unless he has at least reasonable assurances of repayment It will be recalled that President Roosevelt at one time spoke disparag ingly of the “refusal” of the bankers to make loans. The President subsequent ly learned that attempts to pump money out of banks must fall for lack of borrowers. I think everyone acquainted with conditions must agree that the Eccles Idea and the Nye legislation Tnaan absolutely nothing In the way of recovery aids, for it has always been true, yon can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink.• • • The fallacies being put forward by Senatw Long and Father Coughlin, and now being nibbled at Stop and by Governor Bedes Consider 81,3 Senator Nye obviously have been ac cepted by thousands of people Senator Long claims that at least six million persons are supporting his scheme It would seem to be the time therefore for citizens to begin to analyze the trend of events; !! they: are- Influenced by such leadership.In connection with this trend. It is interesting to observe how much trouble Senator ^ Long and Father Coughlin already have caused for the administration. It must be said frank ly, Mr. RooAeveIt and bis advisers thus far have not found a way to deal with it They have tried fighting back and each time they have succeeded only In furnishing fresh ammunition for the Long-Coughlin team. Senator Robin son of Arkansas, Democratic leader In the senate, made one of his greatest speeches of criticism of Senator Long’s schemes, but the result was only a fresh outburst by the Louisiana sena tor who took Senator Robinson’s own words and converted them to his use.I reported to you previously tbat the administration had prepared at one time to take action against Senator Long on Income tax questions. But ’ apparently the powers that be have decided that such a course. Instead of putting Long back In his place, would make a martyr of him. Among the observers here the belief prevails that the only way Long's attacks can be stopped , and-his tactics-broken-up is by ridicule. No politician, however thick-skinned, can stand being made tbe butt of jokes.. • * • The administration has told congress tbat it wants to keep the NRA Through * Donald R. Richberg, NeW Plans sometimes called the for NRA assistant president,the administration’s position was laid before the senate committee on finance, the other day with the suggestion that the proposed new NBA. should be confined to matters of interstate commerce. That' Is. the administration proposes that In extending the NRA for two years from the coming June 16 expiration date, it would apply only to industry engaged In lines of commerce and endeavor tbat carries across state lines. By the same token, the proposal would elim inate the-codes-of fair practices from application to the so-called service in dustry and could not, therefore, apply even to hours and wages In those local plants now under codes. Mr. Ricbberg’s statement immediate ly provoked discussion which certainly can be expected to increase In volume because it is In the nature of protests from those who claim to speak for labor. Sidney Hillman, of the NRA high command, immediately protested as did William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor. Each of these individuals contended that toe NRA would be a worse failure than >t Is now if It were eonflned to toe nar row definition of Interstate commerce aUd- applied only to those>-indU8trieS. Mr. HIlliilan, 'who is laborti-fqiresdnta- tive on the National Industrial Recov ery board, when he learned of Mr. Rlchberg1S statement promptly struck back with an emphatic observation that the country would not permit such ae-ttOD, Tt is unthinkable,” he said, “that congress will withdraw the only protec- Hon tbat the three million or four mil lion underpaid, overworked and help less workers in toe service trades now have. Some of them as a result of tbe NBA are for the first time In their Uves getting , one day of rest a week and something a mtie better than the coolie wages they have been paid In the past “I am not interpreting the Constitn- 1 JeaJe tbat to tbe Supreme Court of toe United States.

She has a remark able record of success in the field of popular fiction. Shehas attained this success not only because she is typical of .her time and section, but because she throws a strong light on ultra-modem conditions; social currents and undercurrents. Read ing her books gives one somewhat the impression of being an eaves dropper on domestic scenes and a listener to private confidences, al though the revelations are more in nocent than otherwise. When she employs the dark side of a theme or of human nature it is to furnish a necessary contrast and present a moral. Mrs. Norris began writing stories Sn 1910 and has contributed to the leading magazines of the country. Her serials have appeared also in many outstanding newspapers, such as the Boston Globe, PmladdpIiia Bulletin, Chicago Paily News, Kan sas City Star, Detroit News, Wash ington Star, Cleveland Plam Deal er, etc. Mnong her best known novels are “Barberry Bush,” “The Story of Julia Page,” “The Foolish Virgin,” "Second-hand Wife” and “Walls of Gold.” It is a pleasure to announce that a new story by Kathleen Norris is to appear in these columns. We know that yon will enjoy it. A d m in istrato r’s N otice. Having qualified as administrator of the estate of John L.
