Many of the small cotton producers of Davie County have made inquiries regard ing the two bale exemption. Many have the wrong idea and think that everyone will be allowed to sell, tax free; two bales of cotton. The fact is that those cotton producers who have been producing two bales or less, on an average, will be allow ed to sell, tax free, their average. This means.ihat a means that a person who has an average of 400 pounds for tbe years 1928 through 1932 will be allowed to sell this 400 pounds tax free and the per- son who has been growing 800 ponnd dur ing the years 1928 through 193Zwill be al lowed to sell 800 pounds tax free. The object is to let the producer who has been making one or two bales grow. what he has been growing because small a- mounts like this have not increased the cotton carry-over. However, there is no reason for a small producer increasing bis production up to two bales. Should every cotton producer be allowed two bales tax free cotton our cotton increase for the year 1935 would be from one half to a million bales and tbe market would slump again in all probability.

From a 4,000-acre ranch, their holdings have shrunk to a small farm and the old family home in ClippersvUle. The death of their poetic father forced the three eldest children to work so that Sam and little Ariel might continue their education. Phil, now twenty-live, had gone into the iron works. Gail to the public library and Edith to the book department of Clippersville’s larg est store. CHAPTER II She waited home in languid twi light; all Clippersville was relaxed and jaded after the fierce, unexpected heat of the spring day. Gail thought that summer would be upon the world in no iinie now, the hot, dry, inland summer of California. Edith would buy four yards of dark blue dotted swiss, as she always did, and make herself a dainty, cool summer dress to wear with her lace collar. And Ariel would get out her cheap little silk slips and striped frocks. Gail looked at a dress in Muller's window, a blue organdy with thin orange ribbons hanging jin a bunch £rom shoulder and'waist. Turning away from the window, she talked straight into the miracle. “I beg your pardon!” she said, laugh ing. For she bad really crashed Into this man inexcusably. "Gail Lawrence!" he said. For a second she was bewildered, taken back. Then with her own pe culiar graciousness she extended both hands, and her round face lighted, and her blue eyes. “Van Murchison!” “Well, hel—Io!” he . said delightedly. “But I didn’t know you were in town!” “But I wasn’t!” And they both laughed ecstatically. “No, but seriously; Van,” Gail pres ently began, in a delicious flutter but with a sensible and businesslike air, “seriously, when did you come and why, and how long are you going to be here, and what about Tale?” “Seriously,” he answered, dutifully, although still visibly abrim with laugh ter and excitement—“seriously— But are you walking home?” “I am. My honest working day is done." Laughter. Yan put his hand with delightful familiarity under her elbow. They turned toward the Lawrence Iiouse1 some three or four blocks away. “Isn’t it amazing how the old place has grown?” “Well, isn’t it? But you’ve not seen it for five years, Van!” “And are yon all still living In Racbetty-packetty house?” “Oh, that's what you used to call It I" “That’s what you called It” “l'es, we’re all there.” “Gee, Gail,” Van said with simple fervor, “it makes a difference to me, having you here!” “But tell me—you haven’t, told me—” She turned her face to him, the sunset behind her aureoling her tawny head with ?old. “Tell me what you’re doing here, Van!’’ “Well, I went back to coll. after Christmas, see?” “I see.” “Well, and I got a bug. Coughed, and pitted up, and was awful!” Their joyous laughter, suddenly ring- out, was anything but suitable. “You mean—lungs?” “A iiulmonary congestion. So now 1 have to lie In bed, drink milk, and rest." . “Dropped out of college?” She wasWrlfied. "My dear Gail,” Van said reprovingly, “I darn near dropped out of life!” “irou do look thin,” Gail mused, studying him. “I'm fattening now.” “And where are you staying?" “At my Aunt Martha’s—Mrs. Arthur ®i>P, you know. It’s all been arranged. $he's to watch me, and I’m to report to the doctor every week, and he’s to keep in touch with the dear old guy Jt home, and Mother’s to come out In •one to inspect me.” Gail, shabby, gay, and friendly, look ing up from under the shadow of his Wgh shoulder, gave him a smile of In- lin'te friendliness. “I’m terribly glad you’re here!” she said simply. “Listen, are you engaged?” the man demanded suddenly. “Engaged?” "?ep. To he married." “Oh heavens! As if Pd tell yon IfI were!” Van’s handsome face assumed a Pleading expression, his voice was re proachful. ‘Come on, now; give me the low-down !’■ “There Is no low-down!” Gall's face aglow, her eyes dancing. Aunt Martha said she thought you uked Dlck Btebblns.” Stebbinslw Gail was conscious of not wanting to forget a word of all this; she had a premonition that she would want to turn under her tongue the tid-bit of his having already dis cussed her possible love affairs with Ws aunt. “Don’t like him?” “Of course I like him. His mother rents our Stanislaus place." It was one of the Lawrences talking; her head, was up. “His mother rents our Stanislaus place,” said Gail, “and I see him on business now and then.” “Aunt Martha wasn’t talking about business, you low prevaricator.” They both laughed again. They were at the, gate now; the last beams of the sun struck flame from the windows of the shabby old house hidden behind him. Gail’s heart did not falter. It was not the hour—it was indeed not the place Into which to introduce a Yale college man, whose father owned a chain of flour mills But hospitality, deep-rooted and instinctive, blotted out all lesser considerations. “You’re coming in, Van?” “No, honest, I can’t ! You know how things are at the Chipps’. People com ing to dinner—a lot of fuss.” “Soon, then.” “Soon! But when can I see you?” "At the library—any time.” “At the library. And say, listen, we’ll go to dinner. We’ll go off places* and eata da spaghett'—what?" “Oh, grand!” Then he was gone. And Gait turned in at the gate, her heart singing. Oh, what a spring night, and what a thing it was to be twenty-three and to live in adorable, romantic Clippersville! Edith was in the kitchen. Phil had not yet come home. “Gail." said Edith, “Vance Murchi son’s back! He’s got consumption, and he’s up at the Chipps’.” “Yes, I know. I met him !” “Does he look awful?” “No,” Gail answered with a whole some laugh, “he looks perfectly fine.” ‘.‘Gail, they want me to be Lady Teazle,” Ariel announced. “W hat! The lead?” “That’s what MIss Potter said. I’ll be rotten,” Ariel predicted gloomily. - “Oh, Ariel, I think that’ll be simply grand!” Gail exclaimed enthusiastical ly. “Ede, did you hear that? Ariel’s going to be Lady Teazle!” “I thought Aileen Fernald would,’’ Edith observed, interested. “Aileen,” Ariel explained, her red “Listen, Are You Engaged?” the Man Demanded Suddenly. lips twisting to. a sneer, “said that maybe her mother was going to take her east.” Phll came In before dinner was quite ready, grinned at his sisters, and went upstairs. He came down In a few min utes, to sit In the kitchen and wearily, kindly join In the general conversation. Phil was the quietest member of the family, as befitted its head, the man upon whose shoulders heavy responsi bility had fallen in boyhood, and who saw life through sober, sensible eyes. “Gail, yon look awfully pretty to night,” hie said, watching her. “In this old rag?” “Perhaps Van Murchison’s return has something to do with Gail’s appear ance,” Edith suggested archly, “Oh, Is he back?” “I met him in the Calle,” Gail said, rendered absolutely apathetic by Edith’s merrily sympathetic manner. “If there’s a new beau In town—” Edith continued rallyingly. “Oh, shut up!” Gall wanted to say rudely. But she controlled herself. Dinner was served.Phll sat, absent-minded and gentle, at the head of the board, sometimes coming out of a brown study to give Sam more gravy or decline carrots for himself. . . “What’s the matter with Ariel? be presently asked. “Why, a lot of them are going to the Standard, and I feel—” GaU began reluctantly, with a glance at her sis ter’s mutinous face—"I feel that on a school night—” “What’s showing, Ariel?” “Oh, nothing special!” Ariel an- ' swered Impatiently, savagely. “It seems to me^-on a school night— It Isn’t,as If It was anything special! Gall pleaded eagerly. . . . PhU regarded his youngest sister’s drooping, butter cup-gold head sympa thetically. .. m ■“Other girls* mothers let them go, A “They don’t'a s k them!” Ariel an- swered briefly, bitterly.“Well, then they’re not your sort of giri” philip decided, with a rather doubtful glance at GaU. . “They’re hotsys,” Sam contributed ^ “ iLey are not hotsys l” Ariel/Bamed. "Well, whe&ar they are or not, yoa don't want awfully to go, do you, dar ling?” the oldest sister pleaded. Ariel made no answer, and the meal proceeded. Philip would go down to night school at eight o’clock, but It was barely seven now, and a general sense of pleasant relaxation and ease held the group. Edith’s thoughts were busy with a favorite subject—some sort of Otopia where women wore robes and. sandals, and long tables under trees were set with buns and grapes and milk for all comers by laughing, vine-crowned girls and boys. Ariel gulped and sniffed; she hated them all. Gail was thinking about .friendly Van Murchison. And Phll was twenty-five, and deeply In love, He had left Lily at a quarter to sis, only an hour and a half ago; left her physically, that Is; In spirit he was stili with her, still feeling her thin, eager hands in bis, her thin, eager Ups on his. Oh, she was everything they said she was—one of the shiftless Wibsers mar ried to one of the disreputable Cass boys, common, uneducated, hopelessly not a lady, hopelessly not an Intel- IectuaL But she was—Lily, Phil’s be loved. She was the gentlest little thing Im aginable. She was twenty-four, and she had been demonstrating ever since her fifteenth birthday her entire ignor ance of the world and her unfitness to cope with it Cllppersville thought It knew why Lily Wibser had gone up to San Francisco to take a position, when she was but fifteen. They might, have known, they told one another, that she would to n up again, vague as to her business career, and more reckless than ever about her conduct, a year or two later. They might have known that she would pick one of the worthless Cass boys for her mate, and bear him three weak, wet, whining little babies In succession, before he and she parted forever. They might have known that those Casses and Wlbsers would have a shooting affray, and that Lily’s par ticular Cass would disappear, giving Llly an opportunity Instantly to claim state aid and sue for'a divorce on the ground of desertion. Even then she never would say an unkind word of Joe Cass. Lily never said an unkind word of anyone; hers was the most loving heart alive. To Phil she was as pure as the Maid of Astolat for whom her mother had named her. She lived In the squalid jumble of cabins that decorated Thomas Street Hill. Philip Lawrence stopped at her broken-hinged gate every night The world knew now that she had got him, as women like Lily do get fine men, and felt sorry for those lovely sisters of his who were still so entirely In the dark. Without money, without even suffi cient clothing, with this dim old decay ing mansion on his hands, with Gall, Edith,• and Ariel- to settle In tUfe1Philip was nevertheless dreaming of Lily. Love, with Lily, In a little Spanish house with a breakfast patio—this was all Phil Lawrence wanted in life. "He lived in the exquisite dream of it, pay- in'g only a gentle and abstracted at tention to what was going on around him in the dreary old ,shabby din ing room. By the time they could barely see their own hands or one another’s face there was a sudden Interruption, and Dick Stebbins came unceremoniously through the kitchen and joined them. Sam jumped up to light the gas, and their flushed sleepy faces laughed at one another In the sickly light.. ‘“Eaten yourselves dizzy, eh?” said the newcomer, sitting down between Phll and Ariel, and drawing the de pleted plate of ginger cookies toward him. “We’re all slowly dying,” Gall said, with a nod of greeting. “I thought you might come to supper, Dick,” she added. “I got off early, and rushed out to see Mother.” He sat easily among them, a big, rough-looking young man with bushy dark hair and an Indian-Iooking skin. He was ranch-bred, and looked It, al though the big hands, were skillful and fine enough and his big mouth firm. “How is your mother, Dick?” Edith asked politely. “Not so good. Oh, well—she’s pretty good.” He lighted a cigarette; Phil lighted another. Sam, suddenly hoarse with eagerness, asked for a smoke, and the older brother tossed the llttla packet over to him with a steady look. ■ They all knew Dlck Stebbins well, He was perhaps the only man, cer tainly the only unmarried one, who had the run of the house. The girls neither liked him nor disliked him con sistently, or for any good reason. He was not important; he was merely th€ son of those homely farmer folk who rented the Lawrence ranch. Dlck had two sisters—tall, freckled clever girls who had taught school and married young and scattered to neigh boring towns. He was the baby, thi only boy.- They all worshiped himj very bad for him too, Gall used secret ly to think. But since he was a young male, shs had considered him as a husband more than once. Not that he paid any attention to her or to anyone. He worked hard, he studied hard, he took nothing lightly. At twenty-six he had already graduated from a law college! . he was going to make something of Id* life. He regarded the frivolity and ga;'etj of the Lawrences with a sort of fear ful fascination. For Phil he cher ished that deep, wordless devotion that sometimes exists between a clumsy.

The aim In the lessons of this quar ter is to place before the pupils of the Sunday school some of the great doc trines of the Christian faith, as set forth in God’s Word, with their prac tical application to the common rela tions of life. I. Who Is the Heavenly Father (Gen. I :l). He is the almighty God who created the universe (Ps. 90:2). He was be fore all things. God is the infinite and perfect Spirit In whom we live and move and have our being. He is om nipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent He was not only before all things, but the cause of all things. II. What the Heavenly Father Does. 1. He created the universe . (Gen. 1:1; cf. vv. 26, 27). The universe came Into being by the will and act of the persona] Being called God. Man him self Is a creation of God. 2. He has provided salvation for lost men (I John 4:9). S e gave his only Son, that whosoever believeth In him might live through him (John 3:16). 3. He preserves us (Ps. 103 :1-14). The .preserving mercy of God em braces the following gracious bene ficent acts: a. He forgives all our iniquities (v. 8). This he is able to do because of the righteous provision he made for sin In the atonement wrought out by Jesus Christ b. He heals all our diseases (v. 3). This healing refers to the body and the souL He first renovates man’s moral nature and then his physical na ture. c. He redeems the life from destruc tion (v. 4). Redemption Implies the payment of all demands against the debtor. d. He satisfies the mouth (v. 5). God satisfies all legitimate desires, so that youth is renewed like the eagle’s. In redemption man’s original capac ities are restored to their native vigor. ... e. He. executes righteousness and Judgment (w . 6-12). The wrongs of life are righted and man is thus re lieved of the burdens which they en tail. f. He pities his children (w . 13,14). The pity of. an earthly father is but a faint suggestion of the sympathetic compassion of the heavenly Father. 4. He chastens his children (Heb. 12:5-11). a. The fact (vv. 5, 6). Every one who is God’s spiritual child experi ences chastening, an unmistakable evi dence of sonship. b. How It should be received (w . 6-8). It is the token of his love (v. 6). c. The purpose of (vv. 9-11). It is to bring the child into subjection to induce reverence (v. 9). It is to pro duce holiness (v. 10). It is to develop fruits of righteousness (v. 11). 5. He cares for his children (M att 6:11, 25). The child of God who has come to know hts heavenly Father as the almighty Creator and Preserver, whose very essential being Is love, will trust the Father for daily bread with out anxiety or fear. III. The Heavenly Father Revealed In Jesus Christ (John 14:8, 9). The supreme purpose of the coming of the Son of God was to reveal God (John 1:8). Only a being of God’s es- sentlarnature could reveal him. Jesus Christ became man in order that he might reveal God to man. Only the one who knows Jesus Christ knows God. IV. How Men Come to Know God as the Father (John 3:3-6). It is through regeneration. The new birth is absolutely essential to a knowledge of God as the Father. We are children of God by faith In JesuS Christ (Gal. 3:26). V. Our Responsibility to the Heav- enly Father (M att 6:24-34). The true child who has come to knojv his Father 1. Will give him undivided affection (v. 24). The child of God makes the unequivocal choice between the heav enly Father and the world. 2. He will not be anxious about food and clothing, as stated above. S. He will diligently seek the king dom of God and his righteousness (w . 33, 34). He will subordinate temporal things to the things of the Spirit This Is not a warning against legitimate forethought but against anxious worry.

GERTRUDE BAILEY, In Ola Neir Yorii World-Telegram. “German girls are the most beauti ful, Japanese girls are silly, Chinese glrla look pretty at a distance, but not close up; English women are dlS; Hnctly athletic. Frendi women stili use too much perfume, and the seams In their hose are seldom straight Busslan women are intriguing with out looking nice. I can be sure that the American girl has had a bath.” Thus genial Ernest Gann, whose alertness to feminine modes and manners got him a job as director of movie tests for two companies, summed up his Impressions of wom en of. different countries. Flip epithets about women every where tripped off the tongue of this twenty-four-year-old man of the world who might havs been on his way to George Pierce Baker’s dramatic class If he had not explained that he went through that years ago. “Why, at fourteen I had already produced a movie—just a one-reeler, 'Sweet Six teen’—but I thought it was great art and the country called it a riot,” he said. W hat this happy-go-lucky blond youth learned about women In one trip around the world points to the average American gi»l as the “best groomed, but too concerned about getting thin” (he married an Amer ican girl whom 'Mie Is trying to fat-' ten up”). His great disappointment, after spending $362 (part of which he bor rowed) and eleven months on freight ers, motor cycles, and on foot, was that he didn’t even get a peek at a harem. “All I could tell about Moor ish women was that they were fat and dumpy,” he said. “European men were always ask, Ing me to get them a date with an American girl. After ail, It Is no^ novelty to the American man to be* told to go to h—I. but European men don’t know what to make of her im pudence and frankness. “French ‘chic’ I found applied to International women, and not to the average French woman, who wears enough white make-up and bright Upstlck to make one sick,” he com mented. “English women do not wear any make-up and look frightful, but Ger man women can wear no make-up and look beautiful. “I saw almost as many peroxide blonds In Madrid as In Hollywood, and In East Africa a tattooed girl of Qie “Berber’ tribe had her snapshot with the Foreign Legion posted alongside photograhpa of Garbo, Dietrich and Btobert Montgomery. “You can’t compare the peasants of Italy and Spain with American women any more than you could a Chinese coolie. Those who can afford to fix themselves up are very charming." Belgian women he described as “tremendous.” “My ambition? To be chief of police In Bagdad. Aside from that I would like, to produce movie shorts with a plot and an O’Henry twist on the end, finish the book I am writing and Illustrating about a taxi driver, and to make a movie of-a jungle tribe In Ceylon, tf I can ever find one," he said.

The “liquid test” . . . i t E N D S b o w el w o rrie s fo r m a n y p e o p le This is a test that tells you whether the system needs a cathartic change. If you liave constant sluggish spells or bilious attacks, and laxatives seem to make things worse, it would be wise to try this: Stop all use of any laxative that does not encourage variation from a “fixed dose” (which may be entirely too large a dose for your individual need). Use instead, a liquid laxative that you can measure and regulate as to dose. As necessary to repeat, take smaller doses, less and less often, until the bowels are moving withoi any help at all. Doctors use liquid laxatives, and a properly prepared liquid laxative, containing natural laxative agents like senna and cascara is a joy and a comfort; a real help in establishing regularity. Ask your doctor about this! (Doctors use liquid laxatives.) You can get Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, which is a most dependable liquid laxative, at any drug store. jip*, JH jsyi (? a £ c £ u ? e $ d SYBUP PEPSIN RUBBK12 STAMPS* Name and address, I Ilxtes 60c.

Chancellor Hitler GERMANY, having recently boldly announced that she was now pos sessed of a military air force In vio lation of the Treaty of Versailles, still more boldly declares she is no longer bound by the obligations of that pact and proposes to build up an army IglSlI of about 480,000 men, comprising 12 corps of three divisions each. This was the decision of the cabinet, which decreed compulsory m il ita r y training throughout the relch. The exact number of men in the army will be determined by a law to be enacted later. This was Chancellor Hitler’s reply to the action of France’s chamber of deputies in accepting Premier Flan- din’s plan to increase the term of con script service in the French army to 18 months and subsequently to two years. Germany considered that France was “dealing the last blow to disarmament,” and Hitler, rushing to Berlin from Berchtesgaden, directed the action of the cabinet and Issued to the German nation a rousing appeal for full support He declared that the failure, of other nations to reduce armament as called for In the Ver sailles treaty had released Germany from all treaty obligations, and that while the reich bad only peaceful In tentions, it must re-arm to protect Its territorial integrity and maintain the respect of the world as a co guarantor of European peace. France Is in no mood to take Hit ler’s defiance “lying down.” An ap peal was sent to the League of Na tions to convoke an extraordinary council to deal with Germany’s viola tion of the Versailles pact The note hinted at the possibilities of econom ic sanctions (penalties) against Ger many frbich might result In a boy cott An attempt is being made to force Britain into an alliance with France, and the mission of Sir John Simon, British foreign minister, to bring Germany back into the comity of European nations is regarded as seriously compromised. France and Italy insist that Simon go to Berlin as spokesman of the three powers, and not as the representative of Brit ain alone. Premier Mussolini is said to be backing France, and Is alleged to be the prime power in a scheme to revive the pre-war policy of encir cling Germany with a ring of steel. President Roosevelt expressed his hope that bis “good neighbor” policy might be extended to Europe as a basis for peaceful settlement of the tense situation. Just how the Presi dent expects to prevail upon those traditional enemies to become “good neighbors” was not fully explained. He declined to say whether this gov-' ernment will send a note to Germany protesting abrogation of military pro visions of the separate treaty with this country. Although the United States is not a signatory to the Ver sailles pact, the separate peace treaty negotiated with Germany includes the military phases of the Versailles treaty. Many people In this country feel that Dnited States intervention In the European dispute is neither necessary nor advisable. GOV. MARTIN L. DAVEI of Ohio, charged by Federal Relief Ad ministrator Harry L. Hopkins with “corruption” in Ohio relief, went be fore the state senate and demanded a thorough investigation. He defied Hopkins to come to Ohio, for trial on « warrant he had secured charging Hopkins with criminal IibeL Hopkins had alleged In a letter that he has proof of “corruption" of relief admin istra tis In Ohio including soliciting of funds for campaign purposes from firms that sold relief materials. Hop kins, through C. C. Stillman, FEBA re gional officer, has taken over admin istration of Ohio relief. Department of Just’ce attorneys In Washington de clare they stand ready to defend Hop kins, but there was no indication that Hf^kins would go to Ohio, although h» may change his mind. The spec tacular blowup is said to have had Its Inception in the 1934 political cam paign. Davey made campaign speeches <>*\arging that Ohio relief was mis managed, and particularly aimed bis barbs at Cleveland. This lrkod Cleve land leaders since relief there had been administered through a non-poll- Qcal group, which later became the • "licial Cuyahoga county relief admin istration. Hopkins often took note of the fact that Cleveland’s relief com mittee .was “one of the best in the country.” Later Darey pledged him self not to touch the Cleveland organ ization, but is said to have ousted sev eral members, and repeated old charges. Cleveland Veaders took the fight to Washington. Ohio Democrats stand firmly ".be hind Davey. The Democratic delega tion in the Ohio legislature appealed to President Roosevelt “to right the wrong which ha? been done our gov ernor” and Frar/ds W. Poulsoni Demo cratic state chairman, summoned to appear before the grand Jury, deliv ered a scathing attack on Hopkins. Poulson charged that Republicans In high government offices “have be trayed the President,” and named Hop kins as “one who could be expected to tear down the Democratic party.” pLARENCE DARROW, foe of NRA1 ^ and- author of the famous report which attacked NRA more than a year ago, assailed the administration’s economic theories, including the na tional recovery act, in his testimony be fore tbe senate finance committee. The famous lawyer whose sharp speech and fiery courtroom tactics have made him famous, denounced NRA as playing into the bands of big business to the destruction of the “little fellow.” He argued that NBA attacked the prob lem from the wrong angle and that the real trouble lay in faulty distribution, thus assailing the theory of scarcity. Darrow swept aside statements that NRA had helped organized labor, re duced unemployment and abolished child labor, with an assertion that it would have happened anyway. ‘‘The panic put an end to child labor,” ha said. “There wasn't any room for it while fathers and mothers were out of work.” “There is no question that small business has suffered under the NBA,” Darrow continued. “It has suffered more than it would have suffered otherwise.” The suffering due to continued con centration of wealth would have gone on anyhow, he said, but added that NRA accelerated it. “I am not an optimist," he added. ‘I may be an idiot, but not a cheer ful idiot” D ESTRICTIONS on planting spring wheat have been removed by Sec retary of Agriculture Wallace, wh« fears the effect of another widespread drouth. T h e y e a r’s first crop report show ing that farmers in tend to plant 17,847,- OOO acres of spring wheat is said to be re sponsible for Wallace’s about face. Last year the acreage was 18,- 521,000 acres. The ad ministration is con vinced that the gov- uTsiiaj-A ernment and farmers have a duty to protect consumers against a wheat shortage, he said. Farmers will plan an addi tional 900,000 to 2,300,000 acres as a result of the new order, and will har vest between ten and thirty million bushels more, Wallace estimates. Spring wheat normally constitutes about one-fourth of the nation’s crop. He denied that the European situa tion pointing to a possibility of In creased sales had anything to do with the-new decision. Farmers under con tract who plant their full spring wheat acreage will receive full bene fit payments, but in return will be required to agree to reduce produc tion in 1936 by the amount asked In next year’s contract plus the amount they would have reduced this year. There is no indication that the corn acreage control program for 1935 will be altered. DLANS to reduce American money to * a single class—possibly federal re* serve notes—are being considered by tbe administration, thus simplifying the nation’s monetary structure and making it easier to control Before this could be established' it is neces sary to make widespread changes In existing laws, and this will undoubt edly be undertaken when more imme diate stages of the recovery drive are completed. According to a high gov ernment official, one class of money must be established In order that the government may effectively control is suance of money. Under this plan treasury notes and United States notes would be retired. The silver certifi cates backed by, bullion now held In the treasury might be withdrawn from circulation and transferred to the fed eral reserve banks as was done witii the gold certificates. Since the re serve banks would be sole holder of gold and silver certificates, a definite ratio of silver certificates could thus be established. p v ONALD R. RICHBERG was named by the President to head a reorganized NRA board, taking the place of Si Clay Williams, resigned. At the same time the President in creased the group governing the Blue Eagle agency from five to seven. A White House statement emphasized the change was m ade' to accelerate the drive to push extension of the NBA through ct-ngress. D Y A vote of 202 to 191, the house voted to substitute the Patman currency expansion bill for payment of the soldiers’ bonus for the: “sound money” plan of Represents tlve Vin son. A boisterous house thus <lefied. President Roosevelt’s warnin- that be will veto Immediate payment- of the adjusted compensation certificates. The administration is counting on the senate sustaining the veto. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT Is look ing ahead to 1936. Authoritative word has reached the Capital that he wants all controversial administration legislation cleared away at this session, Baj that congress can meet for-a short and harmonious session prior to the 1936 Presidential campaign. Besides the relief bill, Mr. Roosevelt is said to be specially anxious to have con gress pass his social securlty-program! utility holding company legislation; a bill continuing NBA for two years; transportation regulation co-ordina tion; banking legislation; ship sub sidy and Increase in the capital of the Home Owners Loan corporation. If this can be cleared from the calendar, it may prevent any serious party squabbles that might Interfere with plans to bring about Roosevelt’s re- election. The White House is seri ously concerned over rumors that con gress may scrap a good part of the administration’s controversial legisla tion. MUSSOLINI’S answer to the latest note on the Abyssinian situation postpones approval of the proposal that differences be decided by an Inter national commission on conciliations “at least until the futility of direct negotiations has been proved.” II Duce made a counter proposal suggesting that the Italian minis ter to Abyssinia and the Ethiopian foreign minister get together for a series of per sonal conferences, go over all the.data, and attempt to settle the dispute without the necessity of con ciliation under the direction of the League of Nations. Direct negotia tions are said to have the approval of both the French and British SPRING arrived in the West with a stifling dust storm which shroud ed the country from eastern New Mex ico to the Great Lakes. Powdered soil whipped up from the drouth- scourged prairies hid the sun, and beat relentlessly upon the senses. A dozen deaths were reported, due to suffoca tions, dust-induced pneumonia and traffic accidents. Freight trains were rolled to sidings, and passenger trains crept along on slow orders. Schools were closed In a number of communi ties In western states. Wheat prices jumped from 2 to Z1A cents a.bushel as winds cut into the dry Southwest, and Governor Landon of Eansas appealed to President Roosevelt for aid. Premier Mussolini THE government is ready to sell gold to foreign nations that can offer an attractive proposition, Secre tary Morgenthau announces. Recent sales to the Bank of Mexico and to Guatemala, Morgenthau points out, have cleared the way to similar nego tiations with other countries, although he emphasized that no other transac tions are being considered at this time. No conditions were attached to the transactions already consum mated. In the dealings with Mexico vir tually all hep silver sales have been made to this country. ‘We’ve got all the gold we can pos sibly use,” Morgenthau added, Indi cating that tbe government would make no further undue efforts to ac cumulate the metaL COMPROMISE and White House -pressure brought about the defeat of the McCarran “prevailing wage” , amendment to the work relief bill In the senate, and administration leaders were confident that the measure would tie laid before the President for sig nature within a few days. The deadlock over the amendment was broken when Senator Richard B. Bus- sell, Jr., of Georgia proposed a substi tute which leaves the President free h, pay “security wages,” officially estl. mated at $50 a month, provided they do not adversely affect tbe wage scale In private Industry; and providing that the prevailing wage must be paid on all permanent ^ederal building proj ects. This way out, which had been ap proved by the White. House, was: ac cepted by the senate by a vote of 83 to 2, after the McCarran amendment had been defeated, 50 to 38. The two votes against the compromise were cast by Metcalfe of Rhode Island and Hale of Maine, both Republicans. Be fore the vote on the McCarran amend ment was taken Senator Glass an nounced he was authorized to say that if it prevailed President Roosevelt would veto the measure. Senate action finally developed Into a race to pass the measure before Huey Long returned'from Louisiana. Administration forces defeated, three attempts to slash the bill, and' over rode protests of old line Democrats that the bill lmpferlls the nation’s credit Senator Glass, chairman of ,the appropriations committee in charge of the bill, solemnly asserted: “I stand on my prediction that this tremendous appropriation will im pair the credit of the United States.” Senator Tydings of Maryland de scribed the bill as the “grandest pork barrel ever to come before congress.*’ WILEY-POST’S-second attempt to fly from Los Angeles to New Xork. through tbe stratosphere In rec ord-breaking time ended at Cleveland, where he WasiCompelled to come down because his supply of oxygen was run ning short He said, be would have “passed out” In a few minutes if iie had not descended to breathable air Post is convinced that only this Uouble prevented his making. the transconti nental.; flight In seven hours and 40 minutes,- and he declared he would soon try again.

Washington.—Alr pilots use an ex pression that I want to appropriate In connection w’ith a 4lLow discussion 'o f th e Visibility” country's economic situation and its re lation to the administration policies and plans. The pilots refer to “low visibility” and “low ceiling” when they want to say that they cannot see far In the distance. It seems to me that the clarity, or lack of it, with respect to current economic conditions war rants the use of the term “low visibil ity”—if any credence whatsoever is to be placed in the statements and ac tivities of business leaders. Government agencies by the dozen have been issuing rapid fire reports in recent weeks showing how industrial production is improved, how the price level has shown signs pleasing to In dustry, if not to the consumers, and how the volume of bank clearings Is progressing upward. Bank deposits were seven billion dollars higher at the end of 1934 than at the end of 1933. The Reconstruction Finance corporation is having difficulty in keep ing Its borrowers from paying back the loans and the Securities and Ex change commission recently was made ■very happy by application of a great packing company to list forty-five mil- Iiou dollars In new securities. The treasury has been pursuing what is regarded as orthodox financial policies and a good' many other agen cies appear to be veering away from the leftists’ course that so long dom inated Roosevelt policies. AU of these, It seems, ought to be reassuring to business, whether that business .be the great corporations or the little trades men in the corner groceries. But there has been a fly in the ointment and that seems to be the reason why masses of capital and a goodly percentage of the country’s population shares uncertain ty about the future economic condi tion. I have sought answers to this puz zle in many quarters and I have had many different explanations. It Is made to appear, however, from the weight of opinion that I have gathered that the relief rolls are the cause of this lack of faith. It has been record ed previously that approximately twen ty-two million persons, about Onei-Slxth Jt our population, are living on relief. This staggering total, the highest ever known, .obviously represents a basic weakness somewhere and the admin istration is seeking to locate that weakness. This totai has been reached by a steady growth. It has not come suddenly. The circumstance, there fore, has led many individuals to the conviction that Mr. Roosevelt’s reform measures are failures. Perhaps it is a lack of understand ing on the part of business that prompts it to keep its pen in its pocket and its check-book closed, under these conditions. It may be that business leaders have failed to read the pos sibilities represented by increased pro duction and the other signs of an im proved - economy. Nevertheless, busi: ness apparently has found it difficult to see far or clearly into the future. It seems to look upon the'economic condition as having a “low ceiling” and “low visibility.” * * * ■ Washington correspondents w e re startled In the President’s press con ference the other-dayMore when he let tt be known ^hat he plans four additional mes sages to congress this session, not Including his recent bitter denuncia tion of the holding companies when he asked that action be had on that .bill. It was not the number of messages that surprised the correspondents; it. was the fact that the President said with some frankness that he did not ItmiW what subjects would ha treated In them. To most of the observers It seemed wholly reasonable that the President should be unwilling to out line. Hiose messages, but It was In comprehensible. that he should admit his inability tc say what subjects would be handled. After that information came out of the White House there was a notice able sinking lit the optimism of a great many men who count for something In the country’s business structure. Most of them said frankly that they did not know which way to turn. Among their numbers were more who believed sin cerely that the President was giving up some ,of his numerous New Deal experiments and was proceeding oq, ground which the conservative thought considers to be solid. The reaction to work of this kind' always has been and always will be bad from the stand point of the political party In power. Added to the circumstances I have just mentioned, one should remember how congress normally Is unpopular with the-business community. In many years past I have heard the plaint of business representatives In Washing ton asking or urging for adjourn- tpent Business men normally feel that toe less work congress gets done and the sooner it leaves the halls of the Capitol, the better conditions will be. The same is true now, only more so. ... it may as well be admitted that the , current-session of. congress is here for ■ a considerable number of weeks. Thla Is true for several reasons. In the first Uurtance. many of the members feel that they want to i>e legislators and not rubber stamps any longer. There Is no longer the overwhelming fear among congressmen of the Presidents power. They have shown this several times lately, Including the forty-nine day battle over the public works bin. Feeling their independence again, members of the house and senate have begun to press for action on legislation carrying out .their own jIdeaa. Much of this runs counter to .admlnistratltfii ideas on legislation. Further clashes are Inevitable. When there are con- fllction of plans in congress you can expect to see a long-drawn-out session, and since this Is not an election year, there Is no need for the members to rush home to mend their political fences. It Is not strange, therefore, that business as a whole is worried about congress. The business leaders them selves insist that it Is not strange that they are worried about the secrecy which surrounds the President’s plans. The two circumstances, taken togeth er, obviously serve as a brake on the wheels of industry because now as al ways In the past business will not risk the last vestige of. Its capital re sources unless it can be assured of stability.* * • While the Democrats, the party In power, are floundering, the Repub licans lie wholly dor- Useless m ant Seldom in my Opposition experience In Wash ington has the oppo sition party been as useless as tbe Re publicans noy seem to be. They are making no effort at all to gather funds for use by Chairman Henry P. Fletch er of the Republican national commit tee In taking advantage of vulnerable spots in the Democratic armor. In fact, they have left Mr. Fletcher rath er high and dry and when he attempts to do anything one faction or another shoots harder at him than at Its nat ural rivals, the Democrats. I have heard expressions lately to the effect that Mr." Fletcher has a gold en opportunity at hand. He is In tbe enviable position of being able every time be is criticized by his own par tisans to point out that the help they are giving him Is worse than nil and that criticism under such a circum stance does not become them. The thought is that Mr. Fletcher by tak ing the bull by the horns, becoming militant and mapping out a program with which his wide knowledge of politics equips him, could become ac tually the dominant Republican force In this country. Thus far Mr. Fletcher has sat back in his easy chair and has taken all the darts. Some observers are asking how long that can continue and tbe Republican party remain alive. Early In the Roosevelt administra tion the Republican policy was to avoid criticism of the Democratic lead ership at all times. They declared, and openly announced their views, that if they criticized Mr. Roosevelt and his New Deal they would be characterized - a s' obstructionists. If tbe New Deal failed the Democrats - surely would place the blame on the Republican op position. But political writers here tell me that Mr. Roosevelt’s political honeymoon has been over quite a while and that there is, In their opin ion, no need for tbe Republicans long er to stick their heads In the sand after the manner of the ostrich, and see nothing.• • - * As the administration -gets Its hands on fresh supplies, of money, a strong . demand has set up C onctetB for inore concrete Highways h ig h w a y s . There seems to be almost a propaganda. In favor of constructing concrete highways here, there and everywhere, Including two or three or four transcontinental, high speed road ways. The new public works bill carries a considerable sum for highway con struction and It is quite natural that dealers In road materials and equip ment want to get hold of i t My In quiries among road-building authorities lead me to believe, however, that the. use of these funds ought to be exam ined closely and any program that Is mapped out '.should be the result' of careful study. Around the Department of Agriculture there is a.chronic com plaint that too many through highways and not enough farm-to-market roads have been constructed. If that be cor rect, the authorities tell me, then the concrete road-building program will have to be revamped or else there will be hundreds of miles of concrete road way constructed at. an expense so great that It can be called reckless waste. Some years ago, the bureau of pub- Uc roads made a statistical study which Indicated that a .concrete road way, as distinguished from other hard- eurfaee highways, wag unjustified un less. the dally volume of automobile traffic approximated fifteen hundred cays, it is . to be remembered that ,a concrete roadway costs several times as much as when other materials are used In hard-surface construction.

Recently Germany was kicked around, all her money taken by the allies, French and English sol diers camping on her territory at her expense, the Ver sailles treaty stern ly enforced. What a change now I England sends a clever statesman to talk it over with Hitler the moment he throws the Ver- „ , . „ sailles treaty on to Ari ur r s . tbe rtlbbish heap. France Is almost polite In messages 1 to Germany. No more threats; no more Do as we say I You know what causes this. Hitler lets it be known that he has been preparing for a war in case anybody want' one; that Ggrmany has a well drilled army of half a million men and an enormous fleet, of commercial air plane' that could drop explosive bombs . and poison gas most conveniently. In other words, Germauy is pre wired willing, ready and able to fight if onvbody insists on it So nobody insists. There may be a lesson there for this country, that, if attacked, could only throw a few lunqis of gold at the cneniv and plead: “Please be nice.” Flving is like human life in this, you do not see what it is that pulls you along through the upper air.

You know that you move, but do not see what moves you. & -Iergyman might find a text for utheists in that.

A noose is put around the criminal s neck, and as he hangs “as sistant executioners” pull at his feet unui he chokes to death. It must be a disagreeable spectacle, even for the "assistant executioners.” Learned professors tell you the say ing -ueautiful but dumb” Is silly, un- irue. on the contrary, beauty and in telligence go together. Also, there Is no intelligence that is not beautiful In Itself. Follow Intelligence up through the animal kingdom. Your female gorilla Is a horribly ugly creature.

Washington.—The odd' pirate “In- UUStry1* of Bias Bay, China, where, 70 children were spectacularly rescued recently by British warships and air- planes, after they had been held by pirates for two and a half days, is de scribed in a bulletin from the Na tional Geographic society. “For many years the district around Bias Bay has had an unsavory reputa tion gs the headquarters of pirate gangs who infest the China coast,” says the bulletin. “Outwardly the 10,000 people of the Bias Bay region are peaceful farmers, but agriculture mere ly masks more sinister activities. Bias Bay residents are always ready to land booty from captured ships and to dispose of it through regular, re ceivers of stolen goods. How Ships Were Boarded. "During the old sailing days these freebooters usually stopped passing ships by the simple method of stretch ing a cable between two junks; then, as the rope was caught by the victim's bows, the junks could be swung along side, so that the boarding of a vessel was an easy matter. “With the coming of steamships, their technique changed to boarding the steamers as passengers and, at the right moment, taking possession, then forcing its officers to sail the ship into Bias Bay for looting. When riding a Chinese coastal steamer to day, one is comparatively safe from these piratical attacks, but he has the feeling of being aboard a floating jail or prison ship, because the first-class quarters and the bridge are usually separated from the rest of the ’ship by heavy Iron grills, and all the ship’s officers are armed like policemen. “Many thrilling tales are told of pirate raids on coastal shipping, fea tured by unusual bravery against heavy odds. Officers sometimes use deep-sea leads' and other ready wea pons In pacifying pirates, and British judges at Hongkong and Shanghai deal quick justice to captured out laws. Death is the penalty for cut throat leaders. Women Lead Pirates. “In these South China waters, too, are other pirate groups, some led by women, who specialize on fishing fleets and lighterage junks. They are dis: guised as fisherfolk, and, if they do not loot their victims, they exact a heavy toll for ‘protection.’ “North of the Bias Bay region, and directly astride the Tropic of Can cer, is the important seaport of Swa- tow, long closed to all foreigners, but now a busy shipping point for linen embroidery and laces. Nearly all of Swatow’s exports go to American markets.” U . S . W ill C o u n t E lk in W y o m in g F r o m A ir p la n e Jackson, Wyo.—Airplanes have been pressed Into use as flying chapels for wedding ceremonies and have been used to spray potato fields, but now government officials are planning to employ one in counting elk. In the Jackson Hole country, a plane will be used during the taking of the annual spring census. Elk in the government game refuges will be tallied on the ground, but the animals which take to the hills will be count ed by plane. An extremely accurate count, offi cials said, can be made from the air by those familiar with the habits of the elk. Most of the flights will be made in late afternoon, when the herds come down from . the hills. The census may settle the argu ment between those who claim that too many were killed this season and those who believe that the herd is in creasing fast enough to justify a large kill. Between 3,000 and 3,500 elk were shot this year. A g e d D o c t o r A t t e n d s S ix t h G e n e r a t io n B ir th Shelby, Ohio—Dr. M. T.

Lights of NewVork by L. L. STEVENSON Gay lives those members of the po lice narcotic squad lead. For In stance, Detective Thomas Mason. Three months ago, ‘the situation in lower Harlem having become quite bad, he was sent, out to get the higher up In a dope ring. With that order. Mason disappeared and a dirty, ragged, shifty-eyed figure with a drooping shoulder appeared on uptown side streets. Soon the peddlers accepted him as “one of us.” He engaged In vari ous small deals. Then peddlers and addicts alike began to have hard luck. One by one, they were apprehended, their supplies confiscated and varying prison terms meted out. When 64 had been arrested, there was panic. It wasn’t only shortage of supplies that caused the trembling. A mysterious shadow hung over the racket, the only explanation being that someone on the inside had turned stool pigeon and was selling out his friends. . . . Mason, with the arrest of the small fry, reported progress. But he wasn’t satisfied—the big shot was still at liberty. Finally his weeks of inten sive work were rewarded. He located the man he believed was the main source of supply. A deal was arranged, the suspect setting the meeting place. That pleased Mason since he knew the source of supply would be nearby. So when he passed over his money and re ceived the goods, he threw his arms around the peddler’s neck. The ped dler, thinking Mason the stool pigeon who had caused all the trouble for his customers, put up a battle. But Ma son’s signal brought assistance and the dope peddler was taken to the hos pital. Search of a nearby basement revealed $15,000 worth of drugs. * * * Mason, the dirt washed from his face, the stoop gone from bis shoul ders and his eyes again steady, is back on regular routine. What his next assignment will be, he doesn’t know. None of the members of the narcotic squad do. That’s why I said they lead gay lives. But maybe “gay” Isn’t the right word. . . . Remaining in Harlem for a little while longer, there was that eight- foot alligator which your volunteer snow shovelers captured in a man hole. It was quite an adventure and furnished a thrill for the entire neigh borhood since alligators, especially eight-foot ones, are a novelty even In Harlem where so many strange things happen. One of the snow shovelers leaped down into the manhole onto the reptile’s back. The alligator, a , bit numbed by cold and ice dumped into its dwelling, didn’t do much until it had been hauled up with a clothesline. Then it went Into action. The snow shovelers did likewise with their tools in trade and soon the alligator was en tirely null and void. It didn’t seem to have much value dead, so late the same night, it was hauled away on n department of sanitation truck and probably ended at Barren island. * * * Curiously, while snow shovelers were engaged In an alligator battle In Har lem, a border patrolman was doing the same thing down In McMilJen1 Texas. The Lone Star alligator, killed with a rifle, was only six feet long, however. Despite that, it was held to be the" largest alligator ever killed In the Rio Grande valley. Thus, Harlem alligators are bigger. IYhether they are better, of course, is open to question. Reptiles of various kinds are not uncommon in the City of the Seven Million. Only the other evening, a gentleman, after a, somewhat liquor ish party, on returning to his mid town apartment, encountered on the stairway what looked like a snake about five or six feet In length. Not being a man easily fooled, he kicked the snake out of the way and thus dis covered that it wasn't imagination. When he was revived, he learned that one of the pets of a vaudeville actress who dwells on the upper floor had started out for an airing. ©, Bell Syndicate—WNU Service.

T his pow er w as il- lustrated in th e recent city "election here w hen R aleigh w as voting upon the city m anager plan of govern nent. T h e m easure w as lost, says T he R aleigh N ew s and O bserver, be cause of the heavy vote cast in the two large N egro w ards against tbe proposed change in the city govern m ent. T h e N egro D em ocrats w ork ing hand in glove w ith the city ad m inistration forces, ,voted solidly Jg a in stth ecity m anager plan, while practically all other w ards in the city cast m ajorities for the new plan. Evm- since a R aleigh N egro was elected tw o years ago as a m em ber of th e -W a k e C ounty D em ocratic E xecutive Com m ittee, the N egroes have been gaining strength and in fluence In the D em ocratic party, and th a t a close w orking agreem ent exists betw een the R aleigh Dctno cratic adm inistration and the colored voters w as evidenced, T h e N ew s and O bserver says in the recent city election. T h e N cw s at>d O bserver, in giv ing an account of the city election, said, in three colum n front page headlines: Em ployes Of. C ity H erd N egro V otersT o PolIsj-Beat C ity M anager ship. ~ . O pening paragraph of the article in T h e N ew s and O bserver reads as follows: “ N egroes by the hundreds herded to th e polls by city adm inistration w orkers in.

It will begin patiently to pay off the inconceivably aw ful debt w hich the nation' owes and will owe. It will recognize the fact th a t we are living in a broke and bankrupt w orld—broke and bankrupt thru the m adness, m eanness and' hatreds of the dictators of E urope. It will bring back to our ports the ships of foreign lands to take our surplus of goods and our agricultural products especially o u r cotton. - T h e ,Republican party will not U M ertake to m ake m eat m ore plen tjfUl by killing off the nation’s hogs; and w ill not undertake to clothe he.nakedby ploughing lip the cot bnR T v w ill not delude itself into thinking th at an abundance can be created;by a w ilful destruction of the'necessaries of life. It will not dem and that the people give to tbe treasury w hat gold they have and then proclaim th at by a m agic wave of tbe hand a tw o billion dollar profit has been m ade. T he R epublican party will not teach, and will not tolerate tbe teaching, th at we m ust keep an arm y "of job holders feeding and coddling a vaster arm v of profes sional loafers, vagabonds and va grants who are too sorry to w ork, and never intend to w ork again, lest we hve a bloody revolution. T here will be no revolution under th at party; and if one should start, it will be shortlived. T he Republican party will free private business from the shackles th at have been placed upon it and will loose the grave clothes from this L azarus and let him go. M en will not be put ih jail because they Work, nor threatened w ith . prison term s because they try to attend to their own business. I t will restore to the nation a sound and safe mon ey, b u t will forbid and m ake invalid m ortgages to be paid in gold-. T he Republican party w ill Under take to low er the tax-burden of the people by tbe sim ple and sane pro cess of spending less m oney. It/w ill try to teach the people th at it is their du ty to support the govern m ent instead of-depending u Pon ttle governm ent for their support; ,and th a t real prosperity doe? not consist in an abundance of gasoline, n o r In a drunken debauch. Itw ilI try to' teach th e people th a t in consider ation of their support of the govern m ent and their obedience to its laws "the governm ent will '.protect them in an ordered liberty,, o r a liberty of order. , " T here will be som e pew ideals and som e sober tru th s set before our people by th e R d p u b ljc ^ j5ar0>i A m ong these will be: T h a t th e earn ers can not contim ieifo pour all 'Of th eir earnings in io ia, tew financial hdppers and not hade; a Concentra tion of .w ealth of the, country in a few hands;. th at m oney is not in it self a th in g ' of value b u t only- a m easurefhf value, and its only prop- er use is in the creation of good? and values and the . exchange of goods and properties; th a t m oney is not a com m odity and should not be brought an d SQld as such;-and that no nation can long survive whose public and private credit is a thing of barter-pn a basis of interest or usury; th at governm ent is the ser vant of- th e . people and not their m aster; and th at politics and office- holding in this country have" be come a racket, w hich costs the ta x payers nearly tw enty billions dol lars per year, w hich is a very large part pf the national incom e income in prosperous tim es, and th a t this inquity has grow n up under all par ties in all the S tates and cities of the U nited States. L astly, the Republican party h better fitted for the duties before it for having been beaten and al m ost annihilated in 1932 . I t had its enem ies w ithout and its traitors w ithin. Its enem ies w ithout can b t taken care of, and its traitors w ith in have been unm asked. I t can now sound its bugle call and lead the people back to th e U m ple of co ordinated governm ent— E xcu- tive, L egislators and Judicials— under the guarantees of the Consti tution—the M agna C harta of our liberties and the only rem aing bea* con on the w reck strew n shores of earth.

The cdm- uission is convinced th at the !form >f punishm ent m entioned w ould/hot •f itself result in the infliction of erious or perm anent injury. It was - he failure to adm inister it accord ing to departm ental regulations, it ;s asserted, th at cost a pair of -pri- oners in the M ecklenburg cam p .heir feet B ut because of the dang er to the health and lives of prison ers by the careless adm inistration of the punishm ent the com m issiori has lecided to abandon it and w ork -out “su b stitu te m easures of both rew ard and punishm ent.” ■ . ; , I tis welll to abandon th at parti cular form of punishm ent, seeing vhat happened in the M ecklenbiirg :ase. B ut the commission is./evi- Iently aw are th at a form of punish m ent can hardly be devised th at may not be resolved into cruelty through carelessness in adm inistra tion. W herefore the concern is the character of the m en who are. en trusted with the infliction of the ounishm ent not only, but depend- ableneSs of those in supervisory po sition to overlook nothing contrary to departm ental regulations and to make sure th at they know what, it is ■ill about. • W ith reference to w orking out new regulations/ the. public - recalls, that j .B . Roach. headTif the w orks • n.general supervision of the .state" prison departm ent, w ent to Meck- enburgw hen the condition of the two prisoners had come to his know ledge. A fter his 'inspection, which - m ust have been very casual indeed, Mr. Roach was quoted as saving there was nothing. serious the m at ter w ith the prisoners’ feet, th at th e men would be well • after a abort treatm ent in the hospital. Also he was quoted in effect as saving1-that nobody a t the camp had done' any thing w rong and th at everything was all right. Subsequent hvents, which came quickly, told another story and one th a t shocked the state and -has m.oved-the Ce m mission to dismiss two camp heads, the physician and a couple of guards. One of the two things m ust be tru e as to the Roach report. E ither he utterly failed in his duty to determ ine the trouble in the M ecklenburg case,. .dismissing it lightly as of no serious conse quence, or he wished to protect' the camp employes and prevent a "Scan- - dal. In either event his action would not give M r Roach high rating fo r the very responsible position h e 'o c cupies in connection w ith prison man agem ent in N orth Carolina. It is hot believed here, and so far- as- known there is no reason to believe, th at Mr. Roach would knowingly be a party to tbe cruel treatm en t of prisGocrers; T heguessas to bis u tter failure to g e t down to brass tacks in . the M ecklenburg 'case is; th at-; too. much confidence in and consideration for the prison camp- m anagem ent in this instance and the desire-to avoid, a possible' scandal, influenced .-bis judgm ent.—Greensboro News. - -j 1 5 -Y ear S u n d ay Scliool A tte n d a n t.

That made a lot of complaints, but I told everybody that the ferryboat, was an official craft sent down by the state authorities to see that everything was above board, and of course you couldn’t keep officials from bringin’ their friends along. “Just at noon we run up the flag that announced that the fight was to start, an’ ten minutes afterward we opened the alleys that led into the arena from the two pens. I had one eye on a little motor boat I’d char tered an’ kept tied to the dock near me so if anything should go wrong I wouldn’t have to stay there an’ make it righr, an’ the other eye on the feller who was my bettin’ commis sioner. I expected to see the fight last about six or eight minutes, which would be time enough for the half fed fish to run the other so full of holes that he’d be too leaky to float more than a mniute. “But a feller that ain’t brought: up with swordfish don’t know nothin’ about ’em. My little lithe wiry feller that I’d bet my roll on made one dash for the arena, swims a lap around it, sees the big loggy fish he could of killed In one jab, an’ what does he'do but jump clear over the net around the fightin’ ring an’ light out for. blue water as fast as he could leg i t “I turned around to find my stake holder an’ tell him to jump Into the motor boat but be was a quarter of a mile out to sea an’ goin’ like a streak. The only reason I didn’t foller him was because the crowd whose money he’d lit out with seemed to hold me responsible. What do you think of that? “Yeah. I spent a couple of weeks In the hcosegow, an’ when they let me out they had to take me In the night to the town limits so the citi zens couldn’t reason with me about that money. You see I’d pointed out the wrong fish by mistake to the chief of police, an’ he won on him an’ thought I’d done him a favor. That’s why I only served two weeks. Him an’ the police judge fixed it up between them an’ divided a pretty good pot “No, I ain’t got no game I’m start in’. AU I want’s that ten spot I guess I’m slowin’ up at my job, an’ I’m goin’ to see if runnin’ straight is as good a graft as some of them preachers say It is.” Every year, when the nights begin to lengthen and the great outdoors loses its lure, my old friend Cassidy turns up and proffers a request for ten dollars, more if he thinks I look good natured. So I was not sur prised when I heard the familiar Hey Bo!” behind me, and turning about beheld him standing In the door and regarding me appraisingly. "Just a couple of vees,” he said, as I swung around in my chair, “just something to keep the wolf off the brownstone front till I find another lay. Me an’ hard luck has been pallin’ around as usual, but every thing wili be O K soon. I’d of been all right now if I’d of been able to guess what a fish was likely to do. But I don’t believe anybody can do that, not even the fish hisself. An’ ain’t I got to eat while Tm think- in’ up some.new way to get the eggs an’ bacon?” “Tell me more,” I said, with no movement toward my pocket. "It was this way. I was down to one ot them summer resorts south of the big town, conductin’ a-game of chance, but it seems th a t. there’s a prejudice dowD that way against loadin’ dice an’ markin’ cards. Pretty soon I got a invitation from the chief of police to mosey along to seme other resort before he felt it his duty to provide me with an iron’ room for a few months. It’s bad luck to talk back to one of them fellers, an’ I dusted out to another shore place that as yet had not en joyed the pleasure of my acquaint ance, an’ where my reputation hadn’t been spread abroad in high an’ low society. “Havin’ a little money an’ plenty of time while I was waitin’ for some thin’ to barge in an’ make my for tune for me, I got a bayman to take me out swordfishin’ one afternoon. I’m always willing to try anything once, an’ since I-seen a feller ketch- In1 a swordfish in a newsy reel I sort of hankered to try i t The guy that took me out knowed where the swordfish is parked, an’ inside of an hour I’d hooked one of them. While I was fightin’ him an’ noticin’ how he worked, an’ how fast he was on his fins the idea come to me. “Bight away I put out my line, but this time I told the boatman not to 'iJB tlie fish when I got him along mde, but to run the boat ashore tow in’ him along behind, which he done. " hen he got in we hitched up to a pier the fisherman had in his back yard an I went up to town an’ had some Printin’ done. It looked to me at the time as the surest fire. graft I had e'6r thought out, an’ I was nervous for fear somebody was al ready workin’ it along shore. “Tlie next morning me an’ the fisherman built us a pen by the side «f the dock—a pen about twenty yards square, an’ we plopped our “Sb into it. Then we built us an- other pen, went out an’ caught us flUotIier fish, and put him Into t t “•After that I got busy distvitaSa* my printin’ an’ Inside of ten days there wasn’t no talk In that town about anythin’ but the big sword flsn fight that was cornin’ off. They was crowds down to the place from breakfast time to sundown, sizin’ up the fish an’ considerin’ their p’ints, an’ when some of the women’s or ganizations began crusadin’ to have the fight stopped on the ground of It’s bein’ brutal an’ inhumane, I knew the show would go over with a wow. Of course there was a little trouble at first with some of the town officials, but when they come down to see what was doin’ I tipped them off to the fish that was sure to win, on account of his weight an’ form an’ they just went back and got their money ready to bet. “Of course I set the date back now an’ then so as to give the news a chance to get out around the coun tryside so we. would have a good audience. The only thing I was afraid of was city reporters, but a big story had broke In Philadelphia a couple of days: before, an’ only the local correspondents was around. They was nice friendly boys, an’ tickled to pieces with gettin’ a good yarn an’ It never seemed to enter their minds that I was givin’ the show Just to improve the breed of swordfish.

At its best, conversation is a kind of impromptu orchestra, each player improvising In perfect harmony, time and tune, tossing the theme from instrument to instru ment, the themes developing and changing, discarded or resumed at the caprice of the players. This of course presupposes that the subject of the conversation be Impersonal, that it be free to range prelty much over the whole field of human expe rience. Sucb conversation is first met with In the form of shop-talk. and the reason shop-talk among peo ple of the same interests or profes sion (in which is included school studies) is so popular may be that here, perhaps for the first time, we learn how delightful it cau be to ex ercise our minds in company with others to the total exclusion and for getfulness of our tiresome selves. That is why students talk so eagerly about their school tasks, why busi ness and professional peopie so mad den innocent by-sitters with tech nical discussions of the minutiae of their trades; why artists, musicians and scholars persecute the public with their passionate dissertations. But there is a stage beyond this, where human Interests are broad enough and deep enough to embrace everybody, where the whole of ex perience is the subject “Clever but undiscriminating,” “un- discriminating because the past is not alive to them.” “Highbrow? Anything rather than that!"—this is a good-natured appraisal of how our sophisticated New Yorkers make It appear to Europeans. The objection to them is that they do not know enough, either about the past or their own country. But the condi- Experts Seeking Means for Control of Beetle tion Is temporary.

Toynbee, historian addressing a meeting of scientists at London, in selecting the. most out standing event of the Twentieth cen tury, will not designate the colossal political upheavals but rather “the tremendous impact of western cul ture upon the Easr.” Deadly an tagonisms have been stirred up among peoples of the Near East by western ideas, he explained, because they have been induced, especially by influences from western Europe, to substitute for tbelr own Institu tions the principles of nationalism. Consequently, for them the “Impact of western ideas-has been especially disastrous.” Anthropologists still have many points of disagreement regarding man’s origin, antiquity and develop ment. Evolution’s role in this de velopment remains a riddle. At tempts were made to prove that com parisons of certain blood groupings from anthropoid apes “threw light on the origins and relationships of living human races” ; but conclu sions were that the attempts were failures.

Now a ' “sea-plow” has been perfected which, towed along behind a cable- laying steamer, will bury a cable 18 inches below the ocean bed out of reach of all grappling devices and other fishing equipment In a recent test 100 miles off the southwest coast of . Ireland, the cable steamer, Lord Kelvin, plowed under 20 miles of cable in this way and scores of attempts with grappling hooks dragged over the sea floor failed to reach the cable. Western pine beetles destroy each year in the pine regions of Oregon and Washington eight times as much timber as do forest fires, according to records of the United States for est service for the five years ending with 1933. In the same area, beetles, and windfall together de stroyed annually over 1,000,000,000 board feet, which is considerably more pine timber than is cut by the sawmills. In 1931 beetles killed almost 1.000,- 000,000 feet of ponderosa pine timber In, Oregon, and more than 100,000,000 feet in Washington; in 1932, 1,500,- 000,000 feet in Oregon and more than 1,250,000,000 feet in Washing ton. Owing to the intense cold of the winter of 1932-33 insect losses fell off substantially for 1933. For the three years ending with 1933 the beetle ,kill In ponderosa pine has totaled nearly 3,000,000,000 board feet in Oregon, which is an annual average of almost 1,000,000,000 feet or a loss of roughly 1.2 per cent per annum against the total stands of ponderosa pine timber. Extensive beetle-control work is be ing carried on by the forest service In several areas, with the co-opera tion of state foresters, private own ers, and other agencies. The beetles are destroyed by peeling and burn ing the infested trees In the spring or fall. .

Young Van .Murchison, scion of a w ealthy family, returns from Y ale. H e and Gail had been clone friends before he w ent, to college and Gall has visions of the turning of the Law rence luck. D ick gtebbins, Phil's best friend, has the tun of the house. C H A PT ER I I — C ontinued He had brought a large box with him; n florist’s box. “Dick, don’t tell me you remem bered my birthday?” Gall exclaimed as he gave it to her. “Whose birthday?’’ “Mine.” Dicks dissatisfied look traversed (lie circle. “I didn't know today was your birth day,” he said resentfully. “No—I Just met the boy bringing this in.” Gail was paying no attention to him. Her fingers had been experiencing the unfamiliar delight of tearing away green strings and cardboard and massed layers of silky green paper. Eoses—wet, sweet roses, two dozen of them! ~A dozen and a half,” Edith breathed, awed. “Two dozen, Ede.” GaiI had wrenched the card from its wire and torn open the wet en velope; the ink on the. card was blurred, but the words unmistakable. “Twenty-three times twenty-three more. Love from Van.” She seemed amused and pleased; they were all pleased. But Gall’s mod erately gratified- manner gave no hint of the bubbling geyser of ecstasy that arose within her. This was almost un believable. Roses—and the intimate, offhand card from Van Murchison I Gail was only confusedly aware of what went on about her, of wbat the others were saying. “School tonight, Phil?” Dick asked. “On. sure!” Thev went off together and, In a happv daze, Gail began automatically the business of clearing up. Her thoughts swam in a sea of golden light. The kiteben grew hot; the gas soared and whistled. Gail worked on ob livious. Roses, roses, roses—the world was nothing but pink roses. Gaii had come into Ariel’s room, as was her habit the last thing at night, to see that her little sister was com fortably in bed. She kissed Ariel, and smoothed the discarded folds of blan ket at the foot of the bed. When she left the room Ariel seemed to be almost asleep. Edith, meanwhile, had come into Gail’s room. “When all’s said and done—” she began, and paused. “Which God forbid should ever be!” Gall interposed. “Well, I know. But when all’s said and done, Gail, who are the MurchI- sons? They’ve nothing but money,” Edith said. “Still . . . money. . . .” Gail was laughing at her sister, but Edith did not resent it “Of course.” She answered, the un completed suggestion with a smile. "But I mean that money isn’t—isn’t like birth,” she pursued. Gail went about the room quickly, long adept in the business of making it ready for the night She said her prayers in a brisk, businesslike way, with her eyes on Edith's face, and got into bed. Her sister came to sit at her feet ■■■ "It would be wonderful if. one of us married well," Edith offered dreamily. On the strength of two dozen roses,” Oall countered. “At a time of the year when roses are two dollars a “They have scads,” Edith mused, un diverted. “Murchison’s Mills. I suppose they ™Te millions,” Gail agreed soberly. Bnt he’s not really a Murchison. Ede.” “He was adopted. Nobodyever calls Um Kinney.” “Was he legally adopted?" “Oh, yes. He was only five when his mother got a divorce, and when Van’s father died Mt. Murchison practically adopted him.” “How’d you happen to know that, Ede?” “Reading a book about old CUppers- ville—you know that crazy book that hardly mentions Grandfather? Well, it had all about some lawsuit, and the Chipps and the Qnneys were in it.” “He’s awfully nice,” Gall said Im pulsively, out of a silence. “He must be. . . . Is he handsome, Gail?” “Oh—collegiate-looking.” Edith was silent for a full minute, then she said, with conviction, “You °ught to come to Muller's and get one of ^those striped linens.” “I was thinking Fd get one of those uotted swiss dresses a t the sale, they’re three-fifty.” “You ought to get both,” Edith said firmly. “I wish I had a white hat!” There was another silence in the big, dim, old-fashioned bedroom, whose heavy brocade wall papers had not been changed or cleaned for twenty years, and whose windows were still curtained in fringed rep. “Isn’t it fun, the way unexpected things happen!” Edith said. “I . was thinking we could ask him to Sunday supper.” They were silent, staring into space. “Do you know we’re very romantic?” Edith demanded then. “I suppose we are!” “You know we are. I mean—Phil’s so handsome and so smart, and every one likes Sam, and everyone regards Ariel as a sort of genius, who’s going to inherit Papa’s gift; and you—you certainly can write.” “Oh, Ede! I had one article in the Challenge, and that was only because it was in favor of the Bay bridge—” “Abigail Lawrence! Your composi tions always took prizes at school, and your Mother's day article was pub lished on the front page of the San Francisco Call.” “Well, I know.” Gail pondered it a minute, and then said with a sudden ly flushed face, “If I should marry any one who had any money, Ede, and didn't have to work so hard and worry so much, I believe I could write stories!" “You don’t have to tell me that,” said loyal Edith. “Are two of your daughters going to be writers, Mr. Lucky Lawrence?” Gall whimsically asked the enormous, enlarged crayon portrait of her father banging on the wall. “All of us are going to get some where, and put the Lucky Lawrences back on the m ap!” Edith prophesied. Left alone under her greenish light, Gail fell into a happy musing mood that made her supply of books entirely superfluous. She had been getting tired and discouraged of late; for months life had seemed to drag with her, to lack its accustomed sweetness and interest. After all, Papa had “It Would Be Wonderful if One of Us Married Well." been dead for almost seven years now, and they had been hard, puzzled years for the children he had left behind him, years barren of results. The old house had grown shabbier, the garden more of a jungle, the children them selves had grown only poorer and more bewildered. There appeared to be no escape; there had been no miracle. Just at first there had been a de cided social movement toward the or phaned Lawrences; immediately after Patterson Lawrence's heroic death in overcrowded Washington, all Clippers- rllle had made a gesture of kindliness and concern toward his children. Dur ing these , days Gail and Phii had been the center of a happy, fun-loving gioup. These bad been days of pic nics, charades, amateur theatricals, sundaes at Dobbins’, movies, occasional hilarious- gatherings at Gieaters or dances. All that was over now. Gradually the smart crowd had drifted away, tak ing to motor cars, hotel tea rooms, roadhouses. Gail had neither the money nor the gowns to hold her own; Phil, always something of a Puritan, had frankly abandoned a company and a code with which he had no sympathy, and Edith bad withdrawn first of alL For actual years now—Gail always winced away In her secret thought from calculating them too exactly— there had been no attempt made on the part of Olippersville’s golden youth to Include the Lawrences In good times. Edith had become just a Uttle bit twisted, In consequence, just a UtUe too prone to explain merrily th at'th e Lawrences did not want to have anything to do with modern ways, for they Intended to marry men worthy of Uieir name. And Phil had given up society entirely, and admired —or had admired, for Gail never ad mitted It—that wretched UtUe social outcast, Lily Cass. As for GaU, for many months she had known herself to be sinking Into utter cbmmonplaceness. As time went on die was becoming more and more drab UttIe Misa Lawrence of the li brary; Phil more and more the quiet, hard-working, underpaid iron worker; Edith more and more bookish, old- maidish. The joyous promise of the roman tic Lawrence youngsters had long been lost. Phil had told Gail, with a little patient bitterness, that It was to the Hunter and the BarchI boys that aU advancement at the Iron Works had been given. Months bad gone by without seeing one single eligible man coining to the Lawrence house. Hardest of aU for GaU to lose had been her faith In herself. She had been so sure, at sixteen, seven long years ago, that courage, self-confi dence, high spirits, and honest service were thfe weapons with which to con quer the world. She had been so sure that she knew the secret! She had seen herself writing chU- dren’s stories. Oh, nothing sensation al, nothing classical — but simple, charming, boarding-school and ranch stories that all girls would love, and that would assure Gail pleasant fame among her townspeople, insure her an income that would mean pleasure and beauty for Ariel’s girlhood, and an op portunity to develop the Uttle sister’s poetical genius. But it seemed that forever—forever —forever the once lucky Lawrences would be poor, shabby, hardworking, and obscure, that Phil would help to build ships in. which luckier men should cruise the waters of the world, that Edith would sell to more for tunate women the romances she would never realize in her own Ufe, and Gail taste in her own mind only the rap ture of typewritten pages, the ecstasy of holding her own book In her own hands, the shy delight of being In troduced In distinguished gatherings as “the authoress.” Now, on her twenty-third birthday, unexpectedly, Van Murchison had given her back these dream's. Oh, how good she could be, how gracious and sweet and fine she could be if Van Murchison feU in love with her! That was all she needed, just a break—Just an Indication that wonderful things' could happen, that poor girls were sometimes sought in marriage by rich young men. Young Mrs. Murchison. After all, if she was married at—say this time next year—nobody could say that she had been an old maid. Twenty-four— that was young to marry. And then Ede should marry—it would be easy enough to find beaux for the other girls, with the Murchison money and positiou behind her! The fun of it! The beauty of it! And why not?- Other girls had had that much luck, and much, much more. Drowsing off to sleep in the sweet summer darkness, Gail heard a door bang downstairs, just as the clock struck a drowsy eleven. The Law rences, having little to protect, rarely locked doors; perhaps this was Sam coming in late, perhaps it was PhlL Anyway, unless It banged again she did not propose to get up to bother with it As it happened, It was neither, but Gall could not know that, and so she drifted happily off into the deep sleep of tired twenty-three, Van Murchison’s laugh, his. voice, still In her ears. Sam had been in bed and asleep for an hour when, the clock struck eleven. Phll had walked home from night school with Lily. He was now sitting on-the steps of the Cass shan ty at the end of Thomas street, mur muring incoherent and foolish absurdi ties to the little ear that smelled of heavy cheap powder and perfume; No; the door had been slammed by Ariel—or rather It had been caught and slammed by an unexpected gust of wind when her small frail hand had opened it upon the summer dark. She bad stood there, trembling, terrified, waiting to see if Sam or Gall or Edith had been roused, ready to fly to her room and scramble into bed at the first sound of an investigating footstep. But there bad been no disturbance upstairs, and after an interminable silence Ariel had opened the door again, noiselessly this time, and had slipped down through the overgrown garden, and into the deep green-black shadows at the gate. In a sky of clear dark blue millions of stars had been twinkling, and in the side lane, deeply rutted from winter rains, there had been two other stars, the watch ful lamps of a shining low open car. Ariel knew Buddy Raisch very slightly, but she knew, as all the town knew, that he was an overgrown big boy who had been in Stanford univer sity for about three years and waa still a sophomore She knew what the scent of Buddy’s breath signified, too. Of the couple sunk In the rumble seat, an overcoated man with a col lapsed little bobbed, slick head on his shoulder, she had known nothing. But she had settled in beside the driver with a little gasp of satisfaction and excitement Buddy had whispered, “Lissen, we’re only going down the road a ways, and come back.” “That suits me,” Ariel had said, unperturbed. “You’re a good little sport” Buddy had told her. They were out of hear ing of the Lawrence house now, and he couid move faster. He had stepped on the gas, and the car had shot like a projectile into the starry night TO B E CON TIN U ED .

S. Afflicted. New York City. — Approximately 3,000,000 school children In the United States—one-eighth of the entire school population—are handicapped In their education by defective eyesight it is disclosed In the report of a joint com mittee of the National Education asso ciation and the American Medical as sociation co-operating with the Nation al Society for the Prevention of Blind ness. Farsightedness is the most common visual defect among American school children, according to the report pre pared under the direction of Dr. Thom as D. 'Wood of Columbia university. Astigmatism is next in frequency, and nearsightedness is third; other eye de fects mentioned are cross-eyes and in flammation of the eyelid lining. “The importance of good eyesight among school children cannot be over estimated,” says the report “We have come to recognize that defective vision or disease in the eyes of the child not only may have detrimental influence on his school progress, but may react up on his general health and upon his ad justment to his school, his playmates, and even to his family. This recogni tion has given new impetus to the work of discovering and correet|ng visual de fects among children, beginning with the preschool age. Close Work Distresses. “The farsighted child is not usually discomforted by seeing at a distance. It is the close eye work that distresses him. The printed page which the nor mal eye reads without undue muscular strain at a distance of 14 Inches may appear alternately .blurred and clear to the farsighted child. “To the nearsighted child, objects be yond a certain distance appear to bo Indistinct or hazy in outline, and if the child is very nearsighted he may even pass his playmates on the street with out recognizing them. If the book is too large or too heavy to hold up to his face, he brings his head nearer to the page. Such a position is not only harmful to the eye and fatiguing to its muscles, but is also fatiguing to the muscles of the neck and shoulders.” Calling attention to the fact that children with cross-eyes often become extremely sensitive and self-conscious because of the jibes of playmates and the thoughtless remarks of adults, the report says: “The sense of inferior ity so often developed In children with squint may breed undesirable person ality traits and unhealthful mental at titudes toward life. It cannot be over- stressed that the most satisfactory re sults are obtained when the child with squaint—no matter how young—is placed under the care of an ophthalmo' Iogist as soon as the defect is recog nized.” Eye Health Urged. In its concluding chapter, the report urges particularly that the school’s pro vision for eye health should include medical supervision and special edu cational facilities for “children with such serious eye difficulties that after everything possible has been done for them they either cannot see well enough to profit by the usual school equipment or may be harmed by so loing.” The report continues: “Prob- ibly one in 500 of the school population comes under this classification. This group has been designated as ‘partially seeing.’ They carry on their close eye work in sight-saving classes under the direction of specially trained teachers, but join their normally seeing compan ions In those school activities that do not require close eye work.” At the present time, 6,000 children are enrolled In the 458 sight-saving classes maintained by 145 communities, where the special educational facilities and teaching methods used are similar to those described in the report. Addi tional classes are needed, however, for about 44,000 other children, according to the National Society for the Preven tion of Blindness.

It is not feasible to consider all the texts proposed by the lesson commit tee, but it is desirable to select the three suggested to be printed and to introduce several others. I. The Saviour Predicted (Gen. 3:15; Isa. 9:6, 7).' In connection with the fad of man and consequent pronouncement of judg ment upon the woman, the man and the serpent, and the announcement of the undying enmity which was to ex ist between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent, ultimate vic tory was predicted of the woman’s seed. On the cross of Calvary the stroke was made which Imposed the death sentence (John 12:31; Heb. 2:14). In due time the unlawful ruler of the world will be displayed by the coming of the king and the establish ment of a universal and everlasting kingdom. II. The Saviour Born (Luke 2:11, 30, 32). That which had been predicted was historically fulfilled In the birth of -Tesus Christ in Bethlehem. When Jesus was brought to the temple as a child the Holy Ghost revealed to Simeon that Jesus was the Messiah. III. The Saviour Described. 1. A seeker of the lost (Luke 15:3- 7). This seeking of the lost is illus trated by the man leaving the ninety and nine sheep and going after the one which was lost, and his rejoicing over his success In finding it. Great, indeed, is the joy in heaven over the salvation of a lost soul. 2. He died for the lost (John 3:14- 17). God gave Jesus Christ to die to make an atonement for the sins of the world. As the brazen serpent was lift ed up in the wilderness bv Moses, so Jesus Christ was lifted up on the cross. As the Israelites only needed to look at the uplifted serpent, so the lost soul needs only to look tc the - crucified Christ for salvation. AU who believe on him as their Saviour receive eter nal life and, therefore, escape condem nation. 3. He knows his own (John 10:14). The good Shepherd has a definite knowledge of the lost ones. He there fore seeks them out and gives his life for them. 4. He keeps his own (John 10:27- 29). Believers are Christ’s sheep, and because they are his sheep, they hear bis voice and follow him. He not only knows them personally, but they, In turn, know him. He not only gives unto them eternal life, but holds them in his omnipotent hands. IV. Some Blessings Received Through the Saviour. L Justification (Rom. 5:1-11). The one who receives Jesus Christ Is by the living God dedared rfghteoua His guilt is removed and he is given the same standing as Jesus Christ himself. Because of this, the very peace of God settles down upon his sen). He has the assurance of God’s love and is able, therefore, to have joy In God himself. 2. Freedom from the power of sin (Rom. 6:1-7). It Is not enough to be freed from the guilt of sin, there must be a dynamic which will enable the be liever to live a life of victory over sin. Being vltaliy united to Jesus Christ In the power of his resurrection Ufe, the'dynamic is provided which enables the believer to triumph over Sia 3. He is freSifrom the law as a means of sanctification (Rom. 7 :l-8). Christ’s death nailed the. law to the tree. The one who has been vitally united to Jesus Christ by faith died with Christ. The law, therefore, has no more dominion over him. 4. Victory over the flesh through the indwelling Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:2-6). The introduction of the law of the spirit of the Ufe In Christ Jesus enables the believer to free himself from the dominion of the flesh. 5. Christ is the supreme example to the beUever (PhiL 2:5-11). Becaqse the Saviour became incorporated with the race through the Incarnation he Is able to impart life to those with whom he is identified. Furthermore, because he thus imparts life; the believer is able to make the Saviour his grand ex emplar. The World’# Three Evils The three‘great evils of-the world are impurity, inequality,‘and hopeless ness. The world doesn’t know the character of God, therefore it is un clean. The world does not know the love of God and therefore men.are not brothers. The world does not know the life of God, therefore men despair alike of the present and the future. G oes Deeper Religion doth not prescribe nor Ia satisfied with such courtesy as goes no deeper than words and gestures. Would Seem This Horse Used His “Think Tankn On the farm we once had a hors? that developed the habit of getting out of the stable unassisted. After having been tied securely to the manger with a halter strap and wltl the stable door latched, be wou^t free himself, and later we would find him prowling about the yard with th« halter strap dangling loose from the halter. This occurred several times. One day I decided to find out how he accomplished this feat Conceal Ing myself In the stable I watchei long, and patiently, but te no avaiL He was a sly old rogue and never attempted to free himself while I was there, probably having sensed my presence in the stable. I tried again. This time I stealth ily approached the stable from the outside and peered through a crack. We usually tied the halter strap in a half bow-knot, leaving the end of the strap banging loose. Before long I saw the horse seize the end of the strap with his teeth and pull out the loop. Thus free, he walked around to the stable door where he fumbled with the latch un til he slid it back, then walked out Unknown to us be bad probably watched us tie and untie the strap many times as well as latch 'and un latch the door. And while such things as knots and latches present no problem to the human mind, they are so decidedly outside the province of a horse’s mind, that it seemed a bit of clever equestrian thinking on hi3 part to be able to extricate him; self unassisted.—R.

Work will begin at once, it was announced by Julius G. Lay, retiring United States minister to Honduras. The restoration will be made by the Car negie institution of Washington, co-' operating with the government of Honduras. Copan was one of the largest and most ancient cities of the Mayas, whose civilization was among the finest developed on the American continent before the coming of Co lumbus. It was a great center or American culture in the early years of the Christian era in the Old world. In it was found the famous astro nomical stone which revealed that the Mayas had as great a knowledge of ' astronomy as any people In existence at that time. The -city was abandoned to the jungle about 1,000 years ago, and lies well off the beaten track. Until about a year ago to reach It required a journey of two weeks by mule over the mountains.

AU H eard the Moans Europe’s dictators borrow ideas from each other. Mussolini, perhaps uncon sciously, copied Ri- enzi, who ended vi olently. Hitler saw how well Musso lini’s idea worked and a d o p te d it DoKuss tried it in Vienna, ended bad ly. Kemal Pasha has made a success of it thus far in Tur key, throwing sul tans overboard, Mo hammed, the fez, veils for women also. Kemal says, “If Hitler can defy the league and kick over the Versailles treaty, so can L” He will fortify the Dardanelles, In spite of the treaty that created a neu tral zone adjoining the narrow water passage that separates Europe from Asia, at Constantinople. A r th u r B ris b a n e Hitler, turning with a rapidity that would startle any worm, now declares himself guardian angel of Europe, of fering to start a world peace guaran teed to last 20 years. That would de pend on Japan and Russia. There is a scientific test for lying. Try as he may to control himself, a man lying undergoes physical and psy chological changes that a certain scien tific apparatus reproduces in a “graph” when the lying begins. Mrs. Hauptmann, her husband sen tenced to d^ath for kidnaping the Lind bergh baby, suggests that her husband be subjected to tbe “lie test,” adding, “he would be freed instantly.” He could not be “freed instantly” be cause tbe law does not yet recognize the “lie test” as conclusive, but the ex periment would be interesting. The ^framing of questions, which should be ,put in fewest possible words and as startlingly as possible, would be im portant New Jersey’s Attorney General Wil- entz, who brought about the conviction, would be the man to frame the ques tions. Consider the principal of the Schaff Junior High school at Parma, Ohio. That principal, having decided to beat five boys caught smoking in tbe school building, using his microphone, ordered all classes and all noise stopped throughout the school while the five boys were “paddled” near the micro phone for the whole school to hear. The story goes, “Startled students next heard the ‘Whack! Whack!’ of the paddles and the moans of the cul prits.” A girl baby two weeks old, smil ing, pretty, dressed In pink and white, found abandoned In a New York hall way, was taken to the Foundling hos pital, a sort of "pound” for lost chil dren.

It can be done, as the Bible shows, by super natural power. It can be done by science. Jadntbo Monra, Portuguese chemist, in Rio de Janeiro, smashed a finger, and while suffering acute pain accidentally dipped tbe finger in a liquid vegetable extract that he was preparing. This vegetable liquid, ob tained from a wild Brazilian plant, mixed with chalmoogra oil, according to Dr. Fernando Terra, director of the Kio de Janeiro hospital, has already cured 17 lepers. Some accidents are valuable. The Injured finger showed the way to an Important cure. At Kovno, Lithuania, four Nazis are sentenced to death on tbe gallows for plotting to separate Memel from Lith uania.

Once the head is chopped'expression of opinion ceases. Mussolini says “Italy offers tbe world a spectacle of calm,” and promptly raises his army to 660,000 men, promising to make it 2,000,000. He says, “Let it be dear that our de sire for peace is backed by several million bayonets.” That is calm for Mnssollni. Congressman Patman1 Texas Demo crat, puts the bonus matter in few words.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Anglo-German Conversations D is a p p o in tin g , Smaon Re ports; H itler’s Demands Include Return of Colonies, A ir and Naval Parity, and Minimum Army of 500,000. B y E D W A R D W . P I C K A R D%, Westers Newspaper Union. r e c o r d , M O C k s v i l l e , n « c * Chancellor Hitler Fo r e ig n s e c r e t a r y s u io n re turned to England from his his toric talks with Chancellor Hitler, and reported to the cabinet that Germany is seeking return of the colonies she lost in the war and a greatly increased navy. He said that Hitler ad mits Germany’s air force equals that of Britain. Prime Minis ter MacDonald then called on King George to whom he gave a preliminary report of Simon’s talks, which have been described as “disappointing.” Hitler made a bold play for Anglo-Ger man understanding, declaring both na tions should unite to defend western civilization against Communism and the colored races. Briefly, bis demands were: First—Germany must have an army with a minimum of 36 divisions—500,- 000 men—as decreed. Second—Germany wants parity in the air with Britaia Hitler admitted that Germany now possesses equality with Britain. Hitler stressed the danger to which Germany is exposed in the air. He declared that Russia Is using Czechoslovakia as a European air base. He demanded return of certain Czecho slovak territory and repatriation of 3,500,000 German residents there. Third—Hitler wants a navy equal to one-third of the British fleet, which is tantamount to 400,000 tons. The Brit ish admiralty is opposed to such a ra tio and Germany has been Invited to bilateral naval discussions in London. Fourth—Germany wants return of her former colonies. Little encourage ment was given Hitler on this score. Fifth—Hitler refused to have any thing to do with an eastern pact though he Is willing to enter nonag gression pacts with Germany's neigh bors, as he did with Poland- Sixth—Hitler is prepared to sign a pact of noninterference in the affairs of Austria, but only if it means non interference by all powers. In Berlin demonstrators howled their resentment at death sentences imposed by Litlmania on four Nazis, and only stout police resistance kept the mob from the Lithuanian delegation itself. Th“ four were convicted when a Lith uanian military court trying 126 Nazis for an asserted plot to start an armed uprising In Memel, former German ter ritory, found them guilty. Eighty-sev en others were sent to prison. As Capt Anthony Eden, British arms expert, begins his conferences with Soviet officials, observers believe the Rnssians will marshal every resource to convince Eden that the only safe course for tbe rest of the world is to bring sufficient pressure on Germany to induce her-to accept the eastern secur ity pact The official press continues to stress that the rearmament of Ger many threatens Russia, and that the conflict growing out of any German attack would spread all over Europe and Asia. This is but a confirmation of LitvinofTs contention that “peace is Indivisible.” League of Nations cir cles predict that France, Russia and Czechoslovakia win conclude an east ern pact as an answer to Hitler’s new conscript” army. Whether any effort will be made to bring Great Britain in to this, is not known. CONSIDERABLY mutilated, the ad ministration’s 54,880,000,000 work relief bill finally got through the senate by a vote of 68 to 16, and was returned to the house later, to be adjusted In conference. The senators accepted an amendment by Senator Thomas of Okla homa for a currency expansion of $375,- 000,000 through the Issnance of silver certificates at tbe $1.29 an ounce mone tary value of the treasury’s silver stocks instead of the present practice of using tbe purchase value of the sil ver. Later the Thomas amendment was stricken out after congressional con ferees had deadlocked for forty-eight hours. Members of the silver bloc as serted they would not stand In the measure’s path, although Thomas had declared he would filibuster against any attempts to strike out the amend ment Besides eliminating the silver inflation plan, the conference modified the RusseU labor compromise amend ment to provide that the President shall pre-determine the rate of wages on public buildings to be constructed, and this rate will be submitted to con tractors for bids. An amendment pro viding that all officers and employees receiving more than $5,000 a year will b^ve to be appointed by the President a»d confirmed’by the senate was modi fied. It now provides that any new 'iA iintstrator or member of any: cen tral board will be appointed by the President with the consent of the sen ate. Among the senate changes approved were the allocation of the fund to eight general.types of projects; eon- tlnuation-of the federal relief admin istration one year; extension of the CivUian Conservation corps two years from Uarch 31; continuation of PWA two-years from Jnne 16: the George amendment to make funds available In the discretion of the President to ad minister the agricultural adjustment aot; the Russell amendment to author ize farm loans to share croppers, ten ant farmers and farm laborers for land purchase. One day Harry L. Hopkins was re ported lazing in the Florida sun and thinking up ways he would spend bil lions as administrator of the work re lief fund. The next day, rumors were that Rexford G. Tugwell was to be nom inated for the "biggest spender In his tory.” Later reports from " the na tional capital were that nobody but the President would be the big boss in the program. You can take your choice, but it seems likely that the latter is true. Senatorial discontent over the methods nsed by the two others mentioned will probably elim inate them from consideration. This strategy has been successful In the past. When a bouse group became too highly incensed at Public Works Ad ministrator Harold Ickes, they were quieted with assurance that the Presi dent would have complete control of the work relief program, and the furore died out Mr. Roosevelt will be the nominal head of the program, but he would not be expected to handle every detail. He must delegate author ity, and it is highly probable that everyone will not be entirely satisfied. KokI Hirota J APAN steps out of the League of Nations and flanked by her single avowed ally, Manchukuo1 she faces the world as the self-chosen preserver of peace In the Orient Japan’s action is the culmination of a series of events started Feb ruary 24, 1933, when Yosuke Matsuoka led the entire Japanese delegation in a walk out from the league assembly. Shortly aft er, Japan gave formal notice of her with d r a w a l fro m the league because the as sembly had censured Japanese aggres sion in Manchuria. She has advised other powers that she considers her self guardian of peace in eastern Asia, and that outside assistance Is neither desired nor invited. In addition, Japan has embarked on an armament policy marked by denunciation of the Wash ington naval treaty, demands for naval parity with Great Britain and the United States, and armed forces “suf ficient to defend, but Inadequate to at tack.” With considerable ceremony the Soviet government transferred to Ja pan full ownership of the Chinese Eastern railway and thus ceased to be an opposing fattor In the Japanese occupation of Manchuria. In the offi cial residence ef Foreign Minister Koki Hlrota In Tokyo the sale agree ment and general protocol were signed and the bargain was clinched by the payment by Japan of 23,333,000 yen to the Soviet ambassador. The yen is currently quoted at about 27.8 cents. Japan's vigorous reply to British pro tests over the alleged Manchukuoan oil monopoly reflects development of the “Asia for Asiatics” plan an nounced some time ago. Japan denied that treaty provisions have been vio lated by the so-called monopoly. With the deal for the Soviet Russia interest In the Chinese Etestem railroad com pleted and Japan’s withdrawal from the Leagxie of Nations, Japanese pene tration of Asia is expected to go for ward under the strong leadership of Eoki Hirota, foreign minister. Devel opments during the next few months will be highly important The tense European situation will keep the west ern powers busy chasing peace and se curity In both the east and the west. Japan Insists she will act alone, and rumors of a military alliance with Germany were scouted. The Japanese army, the note intimated, is ready to repel Soviet Interference at any time. ' TiEPLACEM ENT of the AAA’s sys- tem of crop control is seen as a future potentiality of a new organiza tion established at the Department of Agriculture under Rex- ford G. Tugwell. The organization consoli dates federal agencies dealing with soil ero sion, and Tngwell is expected to direct the expenditure of about a billion dollars in pub lic works funds on the public land program. At present plans call for retirement of mil- ----- lions of acres of mar- 6- Tugwell ginal lands now contributing to sur pluses, ,which experts contend will prove a more effective way of dealing Trith overproduction than AAA’s policy of taxing; commodities, for acreage slashes. The tetter is meeting in creased opposition, due to rising living costs and Increasing competition from foreign producers.. There win prob ably be little immediate change.ln crop control plans, -since tbe Tugwdl pro-, gram will requtre-conslderable time be fore It can be operated effectively. ,,'EDERAL expenditures are soaring r faster than ever before In peace time history. The end of the first nine months of the fiscal year disclosed ex penditures of more than $5,000,000,000. Revenue meanwhile has amounted to only $2,827,000,000, or a Uttlemore than half of what was spent New Deal spending, statistical experts say, has been at an average of $13,000 for every minute, day or- night In the nine months since the fiscal year began, and total expenditures are expected to reach nearly $7,500,000,000 by the end of the year. Unemployment relief has required the $820,000,000 appropriated for this purpose and an additional $488,000,000 from the RFC, making a total thus far of $1,308,000,000. PWA is next In line with having poured out $819,000,000 in nine months. Despite these terrific totals government credit has not been impaired.

HERBERT HOOVER suddenly proj ected himself into the political picture, and set wagging the tongues of countless politicians and observers. In a letter addressed* to the California Re publican a s s e m b ly , meeting In Sacramen to, the former Presi dent spoke his mind with utmost freedom concerning the doings of the Roosevelt ad ministration w h o s e jk J&gg theories, he asserted, “are no longer a propa gandized miiennimn; Herbert they are self-exposed.” Hoover The F.epublican party, said Mr. Hoover, has today the great est responsibility that has come to it since the days of Abraham Lincoln—to raise the standard in defense of funda mental American principles; and be called for a rejuvenated and vigorous Republican .organization. Here are some of the things Mr. Hoo ver said In arraigning tbe present ad ministration : “The most solemn government obli gations bave been repudiated. “The nation is faced with the great est debt ever known to our country. "The currency bas been rendered un certain. “The government bas been central ized under an enormous bureaucracy in Washington . . .. small business men bave been disabled and crushed. Class conflicts have been created and embittered. “More people are dependent upon tbe government for relief than ever before. “Recovery is still delayed.’* Leaders of the regular Republicans In Washington were quick to declare their approval of Mr. Hoover’s attack on the New Deal. Most of them seouted the idea tbat he was tentatively look ing toward another nomination, but tbe general impression was that he was In the way of becoming the leader of his party in fact as well as in name. Premier Mussolini m m THE senate finally got around to passing the “pink slip” bill repealing publicity provisions of the 1934 income tax publicity act An amendment al lowing state and local taxing authori ties to examine federal tax returns must be ironed out in conference be tween the house and senate, but both are agreed that the main publicity clause should be repealed. The slips filled out by millions with their March 15 returns, must now be secreted In the files of tbe Internal Revenue de partm ent MUSSOLINI’S answer to the latest note on the Abyssinian situation postpones approval of the proposal th at differences be decided by an inter national commission on conciliations “at least until tbe futility of direct negotiations has been proved.” Il Duce made a counter proposal . suggesting that tbe Italian minis ter to Abyssinia and the Ethiopian foreign minister get together for a series of per sonal conferences, go over all the data, and attempt to settle the dispute without tbe necessity of con ciliation under the direction of the League of Nationa Direct negotia tions are said to have the approval of both the French and British. PAY of railroad union men has been restored to the 1931 level, with a return of-the last 5 per cent of a IO per cent cut In 1932. The Increase .amounts to approximately $80,000,000. The restoration Is in line with an agreement reached a year ago when the unions negotiated for a gradual restoration, of the old wage scale.

N ational Topics Inteipreted by William Bruckart KatIonal Press Building Washington, D. C. Washington. — Tbe President has placed Donald R. Richherg, bis closest j adviser, In the jobRichbergft as head of the Na- J 0 J tlonal R e c o v e r y administration. Mr. RIchberg will be chairman of the Na tional Industrial Recovery board which has now been enlarged to the number of seven, and it Is proposed that this group, divided between labor and cap ital representation, will guide the poli cies and programs as well as the en forcement of NEtA. It may be that Mr. Rlchberg’s ap pointment should be given only pass ing notice. JPolltical appointments in- Washington are many and tbe addition of one more normally would not at tract attention. It appears, however, that In this particular instance consid erable significance should be attached to the appointment It will have repercussions in more ways than one. This brings ns to the question of the future NRA. As we all know NRA legislation In the house and senate is encountering rough sailing. There are so many different ideas being put for ward about the principle of NRA that thus far it has been exceedingly diffi cult to reconcile them. Since the pres ent national industrial recovery act expires by limitation of law on June 16, congress faces the necessity of en actment of new legislation or allowing the present law to die and the codes under it to fall ap art Selection of Mr. RIchberg on the basis of these facts then would seem to in dicate that Mr. Roosevelt had picked his best soldier to fight the battle; that Mr. Ricbberg, being eyes and ears for Mr. Roosevelt, would be the individual to guide the President in choice of policy and that bis most trusted ad viser would be the man to put for ward details of the proposed NRA ex tension legislation. The undercurrent of gossip around Washington, however. Indicates something else. In the first Instance, Mr. Richberg Is In bad with organized labor, and he has sbown no disposition lately to make peace despite the fact that be was for years the representative of railway labor unions. Mr. Rlchberg it was who clashed with General John son and who la regarded, therefore, as Indirectly responsible for General Johnson’s resignation as national re covery administrator. The new chair man thus goes into his job with threat ening -clouds on several sides. It will not be forgotten, either, that such valiant campaigners as Senator Carter Glass and Senator Borah, not to mention the alleged progressive. Senator Nye, are waiting for the NRA legislation in tbe senate. Mr. Rich- berg’s hide will look to them the same as any other hide. It Is just possible, therefore, as some observers haye sug gested, that Mr. Richberg may bave been put out as the lamb on the sac rificial altar. Indeed, color is lent to this suppo sition by the fact tbat Mr. Roosevelt has taken little direct interest In pro moting legislation extending the life of NRA. Thus far be bas said that be desired to bave tbe extension grant ed, but he has not turned on the steam as he is equipped to do, and as he has done for bills tbat were .personal hob bies with him. It is made to appear, therefore, that perhaps there -will be a disintegration of NRA as sucb and that the functions desired by the ad ministration to be retained will be parceled out, some to the federal trade commission, some to tbe Labor depart m ent and others of lesser consequence scattered elsewhere. • » » While we are discussing legislation. It may be well to consider what Is be- _ ... , tag done about the C redtt tot program of extend- Home Owners tag credit to home owners fn cities and towns through the machinery of the home loan board. The house bas passed a bill wbicb will Increase by two billion, eight hundred million dol lars tbe amount of funds available for loans of this type by the Home Own ers' Loan corporation.* This sum was approximately a billion dollars more than the home loan board thought was necessary, but the sight or thought of so much money started the members Of the house on something Uke a Hot. so they made ;ainp1e funds available From reports filtering through to Washington, I think there, can be no question but what the home loan sys- tem has been of. help In thousands of cases. Undoubtedly availability of gov ernment money, In this m atter has saved unnumbered home owners from their property where Short sighted mortgage holders have lnsist- ed upon undue Curtailment or absolute repayment of Hie borrowed money.

He created quite a fiinap and finally found himself siiletrafrj For a time we here in 1SVasWn^ have heard little about politics liujijp home loan system. It has cteceta however, that politics was not dal but sleeping. The loan corporation in Ca, Tfinjott the Idea or policy of decentralized, did some very ^ F ecaltar cnliar things, actmj. D oings? Ing to well anba. ticated reports, it tually, I am told, some young men pia,. out previous practical eic^eriente training were supplied with copla the home loan act, given a ticket u] ordered to the hinterland to open is* Ignated regional offices. Shortly thai. after out of the thousands ot o ployees in the home office of the Ion corporation individuals were ca® into the office of the directing IiMi and were ordered to go to one & b other of the newly opened estate ments. They were told at the as time that their salaries would be» duced. In addition, I am reliably i> formed, hundreds of them have fl fered further salary reductions m they have been on their new Jola While all of this bas been gobgcs the corporation set up a board of in members in the headquarters Krci which remaining employees In tb Washington office have been calljdf# examination. This board was an nounced as for the purpose of deter mining which of tbe employees statfd be retained. They wanted to be bh abont it and wanted to keep on Ito payroll such of the employees as wen unable to get along wittauf He Iolu tbey were holding. It seems, however, that tbat board has become an in quisitorial body absolutely mttoot precedent In tbe character of examina tion to which It subjects the employee! The result Is that few, if any, of the employees of the loan corporation e»- j| tertain any belief that they can stay .on their jobs with any feeling of safety. For example, one man’s experleite is quoted. He was asked whether b had money In the bank, and he Ioi none. He was asked whether any sf his people were on the relief toS and they were not. Numerous otlff questions, such as the rate he pti! for his board and room and the of his laundry were pot to him.

HOTPOtNT Engineers have taken two simple engineering prin ciples and, combined them to produce a water heater which is truly remarkoble for its quick- heating and economy. First, these engineers took the long life CALROD Heating Unit and inunersed it in' the water where its heating power would’ be confined to heating water. This is far more economical and efficient than can be secured by heating units attached to the outside of the water tank. Second, these water heating experts built around this Calrod H eating" Coil a Vertiflow Tube, which acts like a chimney. Water inside the Tube is quickly heated by the powerful Calrod ..Unit. This heated water rises to the'top of the tank, and cold water flows In at the bottom of the Tube, to be quickly heated. It is marvelous how the immersed CALROD Heating Unit and the Hotpoint VertifIow Tube increase water heating speed and economy. Additional refinements which are included in the Hotpoint water heater are the adjustable thermostat which w ill. automatically maintain the water at any temperature desired for normal home use; and the built-in trap which saves heat by preventing hot water escaping to uninsulated pipes. $5 OUR SPECIAL OFFER 0 r f y -■ O A/li X Months _ Down To Pay the Balance with Places the Heater in Your YourEIectricService Home—Ready to Use.

If Postmaster - General^ Farley had been born in the chivalrous South or the wide-open West; he would not permit another to pass without demanding the. investiga tion Senator Long urges Congress to make of the various Heals. In nocent men do not permit charges and accusations, affecting their moral and business integrity to go conspicuously heralded without hauling in their accusers and de manding proofs or proper redress in case they are misjudged. Long has made solne serious charges against Fjrley1 charges which; if true, reveal him as total ly unfitted to hold cabinet posi tion or any other place of public trust. Long persists in repeating and adding to- these charges. He blames Farley with dipping his private hands into the public treas ury;, of organizing “holding com panies” over the country with his with his family relatives engaged as nominal beads, and of making millions by these deals with the government of which he is at pre sent apparent boss. Long has filed affidavits, photostatic reproductions- of reports and many other seeming ly damaging decuments, and if Farley is not what Long would be first to demand that there be a show-down. '' ' Everybody remembers Farley’s meddlesomeness, to call it mildly, with the stamp printing business. The donation:of reams; of “empeii forat^^H eet^fiC if ^tkmgSa--forglqjS^ venirs to his personal friends, all of which would eventually have reap ed fortunes .if sold to stamp col lectors, is known and. read of men. Farley, who seems a glutton for do ing fool things, attempted to wipe out his blunder by ordering so many, similar stamps put on the'market that the anticipated, market for his “souven.ir” sets dropped to worth less than the paper on which they were printed. Which looked to us like an ad mission of his.mistake We know nothing of Fai ley’s various business trades and_ trans actions with himself and the gov ernment—but , we do know -that Long has presented an array of damaging figures and facts! . :-X,et’s have a show-down. And Jf Farley is what Long says he can prove he is let^s have no more ot Farley.._ The Senate seems to wish to whitewash Long’s demanded invest tigation. That is not the way hon est men act. ~ Turnon the light and if Huey, Longjs right in -his suspicions and if he is able, as'he says, ’to "kick Farley out” of high office, as the result of Farley’s tricky deals, then we congratulate the country on having a man in the Senate heroic enough thus to turn the light on' the crown and head and supreme boss on^his own political .party/ That’s all we have to say, now.

The tariff on public drunks in Iredell county will be increased faced at a minimum of $ 5 and $10, if-a bill offered by Senator Steele- makes the legislative grade. The measure provides that the fine shall not be less that $5 , or imprison ment of not more than. 3 0 days, for the first_offense.. For subsequent, offenses the minimum fine at $ 1 0 or imprisonment of not more;than 3 0 days. In no case will the fine ex ceed $5 0 .

It’s enough to get drunk at any time/ A public drunk is a nuisance an offense, frequently ah annoy ance and dangerous to the public peace and safety^ The drunk must violate the law to get the. liquor— unless the five per cent beer can be made to serve the purposer-and to the first offense he adds the others mentioned. ' The minimum fine prescribed is by no means unrea sonable There is no reason why one who imposes his drunkeness on the public should not be punished. Always there has-been too much disposition to excuse the drunk and. his conduct while in that conduct.

A most interesting staiement was in Sunday’sXharlotte Observer by Dr. Julian Miller, associate editor of Carolina’s greatest newspaper. The learned editor was quoting a Charlotte business man who had started, in effect,“that while there is muct of the Roosevelt policy that is objectionable to many American citizens, yet the president of the United States occupies a position that should be respected, and his policies^ should be acceptable to those of us who are not as able to judge wbat is best for America as the President of the Uuited States. We take it that Dr. Miller was in earnest when he vouched for tbe correctness of the attitude taken by the Charlotte busiuess tnan. If our premise is correct, then it is the duty of American citizens to stand by The President, regardless of-his name or the political party which e!e:teed him. Pursuing this line of reasoning, we recall some of the things said by The Charlotte Observer and other newspapers when Mr. Hoover was president of these once free and in Iependent United States. We admtt to the.fact tfrat, although it may souhd callous, the way and manner in which Mr. Hoover was treated prevents us, from giving the loyal support to President Roosevelt that we would like to give. Back preceding the advant of Roosevelt upon the scene of activity afoout all one could read or hear were most derogatory statements about- ‘ ‘Old Hoover- ” If the Am;- erican citizens had been of that fine texture during those years that Dr. Julian Miller is demanding today, it goes without saying that America would not be in the sad plight it is today. In other_words, if America had stood by Hoover like the Demo cratic press and party members de mand that they stand by Roosevelt today, this country would not have sunk into the awful despair that It is experiencing at. present.—West ern Carolina Tribune: ■ H av e C attle T ested .

President Roosevelt has disappointed millions of Americans by, hisI; avowal to veto the %6 bus Kil. ' ' It is recalled that former Presid ent Hoover opposed payment of tbe bonus, ^nd while our criticism of Mr. Hoover was as outspoken then as it now is of President Roosevelt, we believe Roosevelt’s bonus stand is more reprehensible than that of Mr. -Hoover. Mr. Roosevelt led the ve terans to believe that he would pay the bonus and thus obtained the al most solid vote of the veterans. Added - to Roosevelt’s anti- bonus stand is that greater sin of permit ting the veterans and their friends to believe that he would pay the bonus, obtaining support under 'the false pretense, as it were. Some day, perhaps, the common people wiil understand why it'is that men in the Wbite House oppose pay ment of the bonus.

Washington.—New demonstration of the amazing part that airplanes can play in exploring unknown, patches of territory that are still left In the world lias just reached headquarters of the Xatiiuial Geographic society here in a report from Bradford Washburn, young Anioriean explorer of Cambridge, liass., only a few days after his ar rival at Iiis temporary rail base at Carcross. Vukon territory, Canada. Air. Washburn, on his way to explore for the society the tangle of moun tains in the extreme southwest corner of Vukon territory, which holds the highest tinclimbed peaks on the North American continent, made an immedi ate reconnaissance from the air, and in a flight lasting less than eight horns discovered an immense unknown glacier nearly 50 miles long and estab lished the fact that famous Hubbard glacier, thought to be 30 miles long, is more than double that length. He also discovered an hitherto unknown range of mountains. Jlr. Washburn’s report follows: Tc Map Unknown Region. “The monoplane of the National Geo graphic society piloted by Everett Was son of Carcross has returned here after successfully establishing the base camp of the expedition near the tongue of an immense unknown glacier descend ing eastward for nearly 50 miles into the Alsek valley from the peak of Mt. Hiihhard. one of the greatest of the un- ciinibed peaks of the St. Elias range. From ilie head of this glacier we hope In map a large-portion of the hitherto unknown region east of Mt. SL Elias. 'Tlie glacier on which the camp has been located lies some 130 miles west of Carcross and was discovered on a reconnaissance by Wasson, Taylor, Dr. Frank Henderson, eminent geolo gist of Vancouver, and myself. We flew for a total of seven hours and gigantic cliff of ice and rock without a single climbable angle. “Between Mt. Hubbard and Mt. Lu- cania stretches a range of hitherto un seen mountains in which there are at least 20 peaks over 10,000 feet in most amazing mountain masses that I have ever seen, rising to an altitude of nearly 16,000 feet from the flat snow fields of the Hubbard glacier in one forty-five minutes reconnoitering over 1,000 square miles of mountainous country in this unmapped area of the Yukon. “Besides the discovery of the huge glacier system on the east and north slopes of Mt. Hubbard, we - were amazed to find that the Hubbard glacier, formerly believed to be less than 30 miles in length and thought to end at the divide between Mt. Hubbard and Mt. Vancouver, actually flows fully 40 miles farther into the very heart of the SL Elias range. It grows broader rather than narrower, and finally ends 60 or 70 miles from Yakutat bay at the very base of ML Logan. Find Unknown Mountains. “Mt. Vancouver appears to be ut terly impregnable. It is one of the height and several even higher than this. “Before returning to Carcross we made several photographs of ML Hub bard and the glaciers east of iL on B lo o d F e u d N e a rly W ip e s O u t V illa g e Belgrade.—The village of Tigan in Albania has been almost entirely depopulated as a result of a blood feud of long duration with a neigh boring village.

Many fam ilies have lost all their menfolk, and the population of the village is only 20 per cent of what it was 10 years ago, when the' feud he ron. one of which our base is now estab lished. These pictures are being used now to formulate our future plans of exploration of this magnificent moun tain country which is probably the last utterly ' unexplored region in North America. . “After the base is permanently es tablished on the glacier at an altitude of about 3,000 feet, we will advance camp as rapidly as possible to the divide at its head, 10,000 feet high and 40 miles away, from which the major part of our mapping and photographic work will be done.” “ S k u l ] H o u s e ” R a i d e d b y B u n k o S q u a d ., .

Paris, France.—That Nodh was a Frenchman and planted the first vine yard is a foregone conclusion in the minds of a group of devout wine- tasters who have just organized a so ciety here called “The Knights of the Wine-Tasters.” Too much attention, they aver, has been given to the exploits of Monsieur Noah and his Ark enterprise, and not enough publicity to the fact that it was he who first sowed the seeds .of the beverage that has made France famous and intoxicated the world.- The new-founded order of the Knights of the Wine-Tasters honors three people—Noah, the first wine grower; Bacchus, the god of wine; and SL VincenL patron saint of wine growers. “Our emblem,” a member said, “is a wine-taster, or tiny glass tube resem bling a miniature pipe which profes sional wine-tasters use when determin ing the respective virtues of the fruit of the vine. “Of course, water drinking is count ed as a misdemeanor, and naturally all water drinkers are barred from mem bership in our order,” he continued. "In fact, In our ritual there are some Ptetty bitter things about water drink ers and particularly about American prohibitionists. Our criticisms, how e'er, are cordial. We are very frank, Ihfi not malicious. We meet only In wine cellars and we have a grand master and a grand lodge. VVe hold °or conclaves by candlelight” Tins the Americanization of France her insides r ig h te d continues. Secret orders heretofore have been practically nonexistent in France. There are no college fraterni ties, no Knights of Pythias or Colum bus, or anything else. The Masonic or der was the only exception until the present founding of “The Knights of the Wine-Tasters.” Although outsiders may discuss the virtues of the new order with mem bers, no outsider is permitted to wit ness the initiatory ceremonies. There are no press conferences allowed. The ritual is said, however, to resemble the ancient investiture of a knight by his king, and it is known that at all meet ings the knights must wear the distinc tive uniform of the order and recite all the pass-words and give the high-signs before the wine-tasting begins. A s tr o n o m e r s a t H a r v a r d S tu d y C r a te r s o f M o o n Cambridge, Mass.—Harvard astron omers have, trained their telescopes on the dark side of the moon, hopeful that their studies will explain the pres ence on the moon of the familiar large lunar craters. The observation and research are being directed by a woman, Miss Dor- rett HofEleit of the observatory staff. What the astronomers are looking for are huge sparks caused by the im pact of immense meteors on the moon’s surface. The meteoric impart theory is believed to account for the great system of rays or white streaks which radiate from the craters on the moon, some of them 150 miles across. -Ildney Eisenberg1 eleven years old, o‘ Lewiston, Pa., is now able to take hght nourishment after an operation jo which her stomach was moved from her cheat back to where it belongs.

C H A P T E R III Tlie nest day, to all appearances, n-.is like all the other Friday mornings of the year. Sam and Phil got away Srst of all, leaving a litter of coffee and cold toast on the kitchen table. Sail rushed down nest, with her rich Jalr unwontedly flat and trim, and a kitchen apron replacing the office dress she too often wore Into the kitchen. Then Ariel, looking tired and seem ing nervous, came down in a terrible hurry, as usual. As soon as she had departed for school Gail and Editb agreed that she had cried herself to sleep the night before. “She’s such a baby!” Edith said lov ingly. Gail made no answer; her pa tient, level gaze went to far spaces. She mentally wrote and rewrote a suit ably casual, yet cordial note of thanks to the sender of the roses. She stopped at Mnller’s on her way. downtown and bought a box of fine notepaper. The note itself was written at the library a few minutes later. At the end of the note she added: "If you can, come and have supper vsYth us very Informally—oh. so very lntormany'.—on Sunday.” She thought of this, all day -long. “Come and have supper with OS in formally—oh, so informally!” But at three o’clock she had some thing else of which to think, for the telephone In the library rang suddenly, and the voice on the other end de manded Miss Lawrence. It was Van, cheerful and friendly. What time was he to come to supper, and why put It off until Sunday? This was Friday. “What the heck are you doing to morrow?” “Tomorrow’s my Saturday at the library, until nine o’clock.” Gail could hardly bear the happy beating of her own heart as she hung op the receiver. She thought she wonld suffocate with sheer felicity. She went home on winged feet, stop ping to pick up Edith, to buy the dotted swiss dress. Gall hesitated long over colors, finally deciding on a deep pur ple. It would be practical, and that shade was always lovely with the dull Sold of the Lawrence hair. This was one of their happy eve nings. They strolled home through the shabby streets, admiring gardens, stopping at shop windows. A block before they reached their own corner the Lawrence girls took the footpath through the Morrison place, their bands linked,. their voices murmuring along together with the easiness of lifetime intimacy. "Should you be glad If he was In love with you, Gail?” 'Oh, heavens, I’ve only seen him once In five years!” 'No, bat I mean—should yon?” Gall considered. “Yes, I think I would.” ‘I don’t know that I want you to fflarrJ and go away from Clippers- TWe, Sis." “It mightn’t mean, that.” GaiI paused, the fresh grass that was thickly set with poppies and buttercups, under the Morrisons’ oaks. She broke Into laugh- ®r- “Aren’t we Idiots! To have it I settled but the wedding day!” “Tes, but It sometimes comes as sud- as that, GaU.” “I suppose It does,” her sister aBreed. “I was thinking,” she said *fter a pause, “that we might have Dick on Sunday—that’s one more man, we dance to the phonograph or have games. That’s four men to three girls." “And Ariel really doesn’t'count-as a ®rl, because she’s just a kid,” Edith Ie|? n(*e(* ^ert approving this plan. That night, while Edith’ sewed and -Ariel played Idly with pen and paper, «*u played solitaire. It had been er custom to do this ever since her father’s death. As she played she kept up a sort of Monologue. Sometimes it was in the “ rm of an argument, a dissertation. ten it was odd bits .of poetry, or re membered scenes from Dickens or Poe w Stevenson, recalled word for word; most often of all it was Improvised, !n the form of a story or of biography. Just how she had begun this she never could renSember; It was a family UKtltution now. Phil never went out when Gail started to play cards. Edith was her loyal prompter when Gail for got a date in some dramatic tale of English history, or tried to remember the source from which some., fantastic theory had sprung. It was all heartening and happy, and especially wonderful to have the eve ning end with them all wandering up stairs at once, lights out below, every one at home, safe and united. Gail saw the roses, still bright and fresh, in her room, and sat on the edge of her bed with one shoe oii and the other In her hand, for a long, long time, dreaming. It was not imagination then? Van Murchison had sent her those roses. He was coming to supper night after nest. . Saturdays and Wednesdays, every other month, Gail stayed at the library until it closed at nine o’clock. On these days Edith always came down at about sis with a big sandwich and an apple, and Gaii and she repaired to the dress ing room where Gail devoured the col lation, powdered her nose, exchanged the news of the day with her sister, all In ten minutes’ time, and returned to the desk refreshed. Alternate months she went home at noon on Saturdays and Wednesdays, but was on duty all day Sunday, open ing the-library at ten o’clock and re maining at the desk until five. Gail hated the Sunday duty, but the Satur day nights were for some mysterious reason eternally exciting. There was always a good deal of noise and traffic downtown, the theaters were packed, the streets gaily lighted, and the quiet, shadowy library seemed like a coign of vantage from which she watched the world. On the particular Saturday evening that followed his arrival in Clippers ville Van Murchison came In. Gail was busily stamping and dating, open ing and shutting the covers of books, when a voice In the Une asked anx iously : “Have you a good book about cock roaches?” She looked up on a wild rush of de light, and there he was, In dinner clothes, with a light overcoat on, but bareheaded. They laughed soundless ly together, and Gail sedately disposed of a dozen claimants before she was free to murmur with him for a minute. “Oh, hello,” she smiled. “D’you want a book?” “Yes, I seem to need one. Howabout this one?" - She grinned at “Little Susy’s Cousin Prudy.” “I think that would be about your number.” “I’ll bet It’s racy! Tll bet there’s considerable matter that couldn’t go through the malls, In this book!” “Oh, sh-sh-sh-sh!” For they were both bubbling audibly with suppressed laughter. “Well,” said Van, ‘Tm going up to the Speedwells’ for dinner.” “Who are they?” “Well—Corona Barchi married a Spence, see? And one of the Spence girls married a Speedwell, see?” “Oh—Burlingame?” “Burlingame. And gosh, how I hate it I” “You do?” “Oh, Lord, yes!” He regarded her curiously. “D’you mean to say you’d like It?” Gail composedly stamped a returned book, smiled at a faded woman with bare gray hair and a wilted voile, dress, and returned to the conversa tion. “I imagine I would,” she said. “You don’t go to dinners?”' “I haven’t much chance." “What’ll you take to go to this one? I could do that—I could do what you’re doing. Go In my place.” “Nonsense!” She laughed and shook her head. Van went away, leaving her with a- feeling of contentment and completeness, a certain thrilled sense of being alive, of being pleased with everything. Later, reading in bed, she told Edith Van had come In to see her. . “GaU, he didn’t I” “Oh, yes, he did.” “Oh, Gail,” exclaimed Edith, “that’s significant!” “Well . . She wouldn’t quite ad mit I t But she drifted off to sleep on the rosiest sea of hope and joy that ever a woman knows. Van came to supper the next night, and everything was happy, unpreten tious, and natural! The kitchen was just what a kltchien should be, when he arrived, a social place in which three pretty girls were busy and three rather clumsy men were trying to make themselves useful. Gail’s bis cuits were browned to a turn, and the famous Lawrence cheese-and-egg dish turned, ont perfectly. They^sat about the table until eight o'clock. and then Phil and Dick, after duly carrying handfuls of dishes into the kitchen, departed. Ariel began at the kitchen table her composition, and Edltb generously forced Gall and Van a^N o1 please—It’s nothing. I’ll leave thein all ontil morning anyway!” pro tested Edith. “You were going some where—go on I” • _“We.-were ju st going., for a run. w e can perfectly well get these out of the way,” Gail argued. But she did not insist Somehow the dishes and the kitchen did look greasy and dull to night; a UtOe domestic drudgery was all right, but it would not do to dl% gust Van with too much of It She caught up a coat, «*<i Van went out In the dusk to his road ster and' rolled smoothly away fromdingy Clippersville u* into the fra- grant hills where twilight still Un gered, with the sweet smell of dew on dust and of meadows wilted Trofler the long day’s sun. “How about Old. Aunt Mary’s?” “What soft of a place Is it? Tve never been there.” “Oh, highly respectable!” They went, accordingly, to Old Annt Mary’s, a low wooden shack on the Peninsula, highway, with a greasy dance floor In the center, and greasy bare tables all about it The air was thick with grease, for Aunt Mary’s big frying kettles were right in fall view; Aunt Mary and her colored assistants were also greasy. But the music was good, and the Soor good, and the whole scene so novel to-Gall that she found it de lightful. She and Van talked flippant ly and with much laughter, as young persons who are just making each oth er’s acquaintance usually do. Van even laughed when a chance question from Gail brought the conversation about to his own condition. “But ought you be' up so late? Oughtn’t you be In bed, drinking acido philus milk or something?” Gall de manded as the clock’s hands moved to half-past nine. Van crushed out his cigarette, smiled down at his own fingers, smiled up, with a glance into her face. “My dear child, there’s no more the matter with my lungs than with yours!” “There’s—what?” Gall demanded blankly. •<I haven’t got con,” Van reiterated. “I flunked out of college at Easter, that was all! Or no,” he remembered, conscientiously, “I did have a heavy chest cold, coughing, all that That was part of It you see? I had to stay home a week at Christmas, and what not—”v. In his incorrigibly gay manner he finished the sentence with a shrug. “You’re not sick at all!” Gail said, In so disappointed a tone that they both laughed outfight They sat on, watching the dancers. Against the low open pine crossbeams of the roof cigarette smoke was rising blue and opaque. The music droned on, the saxophone whining above the other Instruments; the crowd was thinning now, some of the tables were empty. When the clock struck ten Gail said she must go home. Van made no pro test; he seemed tired, too, willing to say good-night They were laughing again, driving home in the starlight But at the Law rence gate Gall was conscious that somehow their parting was going to be a little stiff and flat Someminutes before they arrived she began to dread i t It would be stiff. It would lay a heavy bar upon the frothy gaiety of the evening. But she could not save herself. She could not be suddenly flirtatious- amorous. She did not know how. Did he expect her to let him kiss her good night? Did be even want to kiss her? She did not know. Suddenly she felt like an -innocent awkward little girl. A sense of help-’ lessness smote her. ' This happy eve ning must end on a high note, she must be equal to I t She must not say good-night like Edith saying good night to one of the girls from the store—like a nice old lady saying good-night to a dear old friend. But somehow she could not carry It The wild thought of leaning above him for a second, when she moved to leave the car, and of putting a butter fly kiss on his bared head, crossed hec flurried mind. But that would be idiotic—that was not the way girls kissed boys nowadays. They sank against the boys, their bodies limp, their painted mouths plastered against the boys’ mouths. Such a girl at this moment would have her bead on Van’s shoulder. While she confusedly considered it they had reached the gate and she was out of the car. Van making no move ment to get down. Gail went about to his side of the automobile, and stood looking up at him for a moment “Van, Tve had a perfectly delicious time.” He moved the gas control idly tc and fro on the wheeL “Sure, it was fun.” His own voice seemed flat Gail tried desperately for the hilarity ot the earlier evening. “As for your consumption, I shan't get over that for a long time!” “My what?" he asked dully. “Your fake consumption.” It was no use. Perhaps they were both too tired for talk. Gall thought. A pause, brief, but much too long Then Gail said, “Well, good-night I Set you soon?” •‘Oh, sure!” he said, and “Good night!” and he was gone into the dark. The' girl made faces at herself as she went up the steps; she was con scions of a shamed, sort of feeling ol anti-climax. It was as if she had sol(? her birthright somehow. Actually, she had not compromised; there had not been a word or a glancc all evening that might not have been exchanged by the most decorous of friends. I But that was part of the trouble! Or else she vas tired; maybe that was i t The front door was open, a bead of gas wavering In the hot, odor ous hallway. Edith came out front her doorway like an angel, cool and fragrant from a bath. She welcomed. Gall .as If from the wars... “Darling, did you have a good time?" “It was heavenly. We drove around for awhile, and then we went down t< Old Aunt Mary’s.”“Gall Lawrencel Was It wild? Oi Sunday night!” “No, it was as calm as a. mill pond There were two policemen there,, aiU a lot of nice college boys.

ALLEN GRIFFITH d e n t a l p a i n k i l l i n g 'T 'H E fear of pain is'm an’s heritage. An American dentist reduced that heritage forever by making the first practical use of nitrous oxide (laughing gas) as an anesthetic. Anesthesia really was discovered on December U, 1S44, by Horace Wells, a dentist of Hartford, Conn., when he offered himself as a possible martyr to suffering humanity, by Inhaling nitrous oxide and having a tooth retracted. In January, 1845, Doctor Wells took his discovery to Boston and operated be fore the medical college. He was ridi culed and pronounced a fraud, th e wise men of Boston pointed the finger of mockery and cried “humbug,” de termined to break upon the rocks of derision any man from the country who supposed the wise men of the city ri diculous enough to believe his story. Dentists in their eagerness to. relieve human suffering and pain, have for years successfully used local anesthet ics such as cocain and novocain. In later years they have developed the use of a combination of nitrous oxide and oxygen, the safest general anesthetic known. The death rate from' nitrous oside and oxygen is estimatefl at one in a million, against one in thirty thou sand in ether. Dentistry’s latest gift to suffering mankind is conductive anesthesia or nerve blocking, by which the area con trolled by a nerve Is rendered Insen sible to pain. Surgery is now able to perform major operations such as laparotomies and amputations by in jecting the nerve trunks with novo cain. What would be man’s fear and dread of dental and surgical operations without the gracious sleep of an esthesia? Through anesthesia, dentistry has given to humanity one of its greatest boons, and it is hard to conceive that In the past few years, bills have been introduced In some of our state legis latures to prevent dentists from giving anesthetics. However, it Is only in line with the profound scientific ignorance of politicians. The dentist has succeeded in taking the “dent” out of dentistry. Where an Individual suffers from pain In his teeth, It Is his own fault The modern up-to-date dentist has so many ways of relieving pain that no one need to ’suffer from their teeth. His latest and greatest gift to humanity, however, is the prevention1 of systemic disease through the proper care of the’teeth. Proper dental care will not only pre vent pain and preserve the teeth but will preserve general health as well.* * • T E E T H A N D T O N SIL S WHEN you smile In a mirror whai do you see? Do you see a clean, healthy mouth and. a row of pearls, or a neglected oral cavity with decaying, uncared-for teeth? ’ The mucous membrane of the mouth is highly resistant to the Invasion of bacteria. If this were not true, we would all be In constant trouble from mouth infections, for it is easy to demonstrate that every mouth in any civilized community contains a great variety of bactefia, most of them of highly virulent strains. During the past few years It has been the practice to remove the ton sils, but to overlook their source of infection, the teeth. Let us see how the tonsils become infected. The substance of healthy tonsils Is composed of small nodules of lymphat ic tissues arranged In groups of 12.to 15 crypts and connective tissue, blood vessels and a few nerve fibers. Frcm the crypts numerous follicles branch out- into the substance of the tonsil by means of irregular channels. Surrounding each follicle is a plexus of lymphatic vessels, and the whole is covered by mucous membrane. While well protected from the out side, yet becaure of their peculiar construction and the numerous lymph atic plexuses and crypts, they are ideal incubators for micro-organisms that may once succeed In penetrating the lymph channels. The lymphatic ves sels of the gums terminate in the sub- ihaxilary glands. The lymphatic ves sels leading from the plexuses sur rounding the tonsilar crypts also pass to the submaxllary glands. It Is there fore readily seen that bacteria may pass almost directly from the gum margins to the tonsils. Bacteria passing into Hie lymph channels may easily pass on to the tonsils and be enormously multiplied, both in number and .virulence, and be passed through the submaxiliary glands to the deep cervical glands, and finally on to other parts of the body without the surface of the ton sil: even being disturbed. This is why the removal of the tonsils, • while Im mediately helpful, does not always re move the source of the trouble. The same' condition still-remains, and'op eration after operation frequently suc ceed each other as the lowered resist ance of some other point causes it to become infected. . If the teeth are properly cared for first and the crypts of the tonsils earefully cleaned out the tonsils may frequently be saved. In any event the- teeth should be the first consideration, for in treating diseases resulting from focal infection the original point of infection must be eradicated. 6 .

'God, the God of the Living OIarb 12:26, 27). “If a man die, shall he live again?” is an age-long question. It is affirma tively answered by both the universal human conviction and the holy Scrip tures. Death does not end all. It ts not a leap into the dark. It is rather the open door through which human personality enters into the light of glorious freedom. Life itself is but a training school, a preparation for the larger and higher life after death. Those who in their lifetime are in vital relation to Jesus Christ, the eternal Life, shall never die. II? The Resurrection of Jesus Christ (Luke 24:1-12). The supreme test of Christianity is the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It matters little what Jesus said and did while alive, If his body remained In the grave. If he did not come forth iu triumph from the tomb, then ail his claims are false. On the other hand, if he dW arise, all his claims are true. 1. The empty sepulchre (vv. 1-3). a. The coming of the women (v.l). As an expression of affectionate re gard for the Master, they came with spices for his body. b. What they found <vv. 2, 3). Wlien they came to the sepulchre they found the stone had been removed, but they found not the body of Jesus. For them to have found his body in the sepulchre would have been the world’s greatest tragedy. The empty tomb spoke eloquently of the deity and pow er of the Son of God (How. 1:4). 2. The message of the men in shin ing garments (vv. 4-8). a. “Why seek ye, the living among the dead?” (v. 5). The angels’ ques tion has continued to -reverberate through the centuries. b. “He is not here, but is risen” (v. 6). Jesus, before he was cruci fied, had told them that the Lord must be betrayed and crucified and that on the third day he would rise. 3. The women witnessing to the eleven (vv. 9-11). Their thrilling testi mony concerning the empty tomb and the words of the angels appeared to the apostles as idle tales. 4. Peter investigating (v. 12). While the testimony of the women seemed as idle tales, Peter was not of the tem perament to lightly dismiss the matter. Therefore, he ran to the sepulchre. Upon close investigation be found tbe linen clothes lying In such a way as to prove the reality of the resurrec tion. III. - Jesus Preparing a Place in HeaOen for His Own (John 14:1-3). The hopes of the disciples were ut terly shattered when Jesus told them about the cross. He consoled them by pointing to the reunion in the Fa ther’s house. This be did by 1. Asking them to trust in him even as God (v. I). Faitb In the God- man, Christ Jesus, will steady the heart no matter how intense the grief. 2. By informing them that be was going to the Father’s house to prepare a home for them (v. 2). He declared that In that house there were many abiding places. Heaven is an eternal dwelling place for God’s children. 3. By assuring them that he would come again and escort them to heaven (v. 3). He will come and call forth from the grave those who have died and transform living believers and lake them all together to be with him Iorever in the heavenly home (I Thess. 4:16, 17). IV. Jesus Christ Is the Way to the Heavenly Father (John 14:4-6). In answer to Thomas’ interposed doubt Jesus asserted: 1. That he Is the way (v. 6). Jesus Christ is more than a mere guide to God or a teacher. He Is the way itself, the very door of the sheepfold, tbe gateway to the tree of life. - 2. The truth (v. 6). He is not merely the teacher, but the truth in carnate. In his Incarnation the spir itual and material worlds were united. Therefore, every line of truth, whether spiritual or material, converges In him. 3. The life (v. 6). Christ is not merely the giver of life, but the very essence of life. Only those who re-, ceive Christ have life in th» true sense. You May Be Wrong --.My brethren,”^ said Oliver Crom well to some of hTs fanatical, positive followers, “in the name of Christ I beseech you to think- it possib’e yon may be mistaken.” That is a good word to carry in our minds.

Mus solini wants France and England to join him In an agree ment to suppress any outbreak affect ing them. France is said to. hare moved troops for defense to the German frontier, al though it is bard to guess what those troops could do. If Germany declared war it would be with planes drop ping explosives and poison gas on Paris. No nation at war will sit In trenches for fonr or five years, now that flying is real Britain, going a long way around, ,wisely, sends a suave statesman, Cap- ,tain Eden, to Moscow to see Stalin of Russia. The talk, not published, may have been like this: If England agrees to help you fight Japan, will you help against Germany, In case of need? A rthuz B risbane * A British naval officer cut the throat of a shipmate. In England they bang jou for th at When hanging time came, sirs. Violet Vandereist, prosperous widow, opposed to the death penalty, hired two planes to fly back and forth above the gallows, trailing banners reading, “Stop the death sentence.” While airplanes flew overhead, trucks drove back and forth before the jail, with loud speakers bellowing “Abide With Me.” The man that “killed bis comrade Bleeping,” or however he did It, did not “abide.’* He went through the trap. The British believe in discouraging murder, and prompt punishment seems to do It Graft and dishonesty are old, as old as human need and cunning. A papy rus written 1,200 years before Christ tells of three men tried for robbing a royal tomb. Egyptian kings were de scended from the gods; to rob their tombs was sacrilege, the punishment death. A dishonest jeweler, patting base metal in a supposedly “pure gold” crown for King Hiero, was exposed by the great Archimedes, who thought out a method in his bath, and started the word “eureka” down through the «ges. Michael Angelo, building S t Peter’s at Rome, complained to the pope of the materials furnished by contrac tors, reminding his holiness that he, Michael Angelo, would make no proQt from S t Peter’s except “benefit to my sonl,” and urged the pope to punish the grafters. There Is even graft now In this modern, enlightened republic. What is life? What Is death? What are we? An English gentleman “dies” ; doc tors pronounce him dead. He returns to life, says he has been In heaven, tells what he saw—a dull account, clothing the same as we wear here. Uow far, bow fast, did his spirit travel while he was “dead”? What does the soul do while the body is supposedly dead? Does It go 8*vay and come back, or just wait around inside the body? What is death? Some say It is only a “belief,” and there Is no such thing. In New Xork’s American Museum of Natural History is shown- a drawing of the largest land mammal that ever lived, named Baluchiterlum. This huge animal, which vanished from earth 25,000,000 years ago, stood 17 feet 9 Inches high at the shoulder, was as big as two big elephants, weighed 20,000 pounds or more. It was not as big as a dinosaur, but the dinosaur !laid eggs and was no mammal. A food problem might be solved If the “big gest mammal” could be brought back and raised by cattlemen. It ate SOO pounds of food a day; that must be considered. In America it might be ■necessary, to drown the mammal Baln- chlterlum, with her unborn babies. Sir John Simon, returning from an unsatisfactory talk with Hitler, reports “certaiij divergencies” of opinion. That Is going pretty far for a British states^ man. There is a bigger fly than that In the ointment: Sir John learns from Hitler that Germany “already has a larger air force than that of .Great Britain.” Britain thought Germany had only half , as many planes.' A wise statesman gets his fighting airplanes ready before he starts to fight In France .three persons “sterilized” a t their awn request by “a mysterious Austrian doctor” because they did not want to have children have been ar rested. France, striving for more population, believes that “sterilization” can bi overdone. The mysterious Austrian performed 15 operations on men and women b» lore disappearing. Ck lne.

NTE’S muni tions committee, which has spent seven months investigating the doings of the manufacturers of arms and armament, reported to the senate its meas ure designed to take the profits out of war and provide for the conscription of in dustry in the event of, another armed con flict involving the United States. The bill is decidedly dras tic, giving to the PresideDt in war time powers that are prac- Ucally dictatorial, permitting him not only to As prices but also to license all Industry and control raw mate rials. It also has taxation features that will arouse considerable opposi tion. It would raise individual income taxes to 6 per cent in Wartimr ievy surtaxes up to 94 per cent on incomes In excess of $10,000, and seize profits of corporations in excess of 6 per cent return on Invested capital. The Nye bill gives the President very broad powers to fix prices of commodities, to license industry, to en join profiteering and to prevent the hoarding of goods. It provides for the drafting of industrial leaders, who would be permitted to remain with their companies, subject to military law and given rank and compensation not exceeding that of a brigadier gen- tral. Meanwhile the bouse military affairs committee reported the McSwain bill, similar to the senate measure but without the tax features. This lack made the more radical members angry but when they tried to amend the bill they were routed, 25S to 71. The Nye senate committee, after re porting Its bill, continued Its inquiry. It heard a rather sensational bit o£ evidence to the effect that Roger S. McGrath, an insurance company agent who was described as a friend of the President’s son James, had sought suc cessfully to obtain two naval building contracts for' the Bath Iron Works up In Maine. FOLLOWING the example set by Hitler, Austria has decided to dis regard the limitations on its military strength set by the treaty, of St. Ger main and to increase its armed forces Immediately. The official communique Issued by Chancellor Eurt Schuschnigg did not say how big the army would be or whether conscription would be restored. The annual spring parade of the army at the Ringstrasse in Vienna was revived, and the troops appeared In fine new uniforms. It is believed Hungary and Bulgaria soon will ask permission to increase their armies and re-introduce con scription. O OVIET Russia is ready to line up with Great Britain, France* and Italy In promoting the general Euro pean security pact which Is the basis of England’s plan for peace. This was brought out by the visit to Moscow of Capt Anthony Eden, British lord privy seal, and his- confer ences with Dictator Josef Stalin and Max im Litvinov, Soviet foreign commissar. Ac cording to the Joint communique given the press, these states men “were of the opinion that In the present international situation it is more than ever necessaryto pursue the endeavor to promote the building up of a system of collective security. In Eu rope as contemplated in the Anglo- French communique of the third of February, and in conformity with the principles of the League of Nations.” It was made clear that Germany and Poland would be welcome to enter the arrangement but that it would go ahead even without them. Captain Eden then went on to War saw to talk things over with the Poles; and even as he was departing from Moscow the Soviet press launched an other fierce attack on Germany. Michael Tukhachevsky, vice commissar for defense, in an article in the news paper Pravda, declared Germany would •have an army of 849,000 by the sum mer, exceeding the French army by 40 per cent and almost equaling the Soviet army in size. He charged Hitler with “lulling France to sleep” with anti-Soviet war talk In the hope France would not realize her bwn peril. Tukhachevsky’s view that Germany contemplates attacking France . was supported by an authorized article In the weekly Journal de Moscoa which asserted the leaders of the reich. real ized “the exceptional risk to which Ger many would subject herself by Invasion of the tremendous territories of the U. S. S. R.—a country' possessing; powerful armaments and unlimited opportunities for improving' and increasing these armaments.” “It Is almost probable,” the Journal «atd, “that under certain circumstances M. Litvinov Hitler will prefer other fields of ag gression, and an intensified revision of the map of Europe will be started not in the east but in the west,” PREMIER MUSSOLINI is highly skeptical of the success of efforts to persuade Germany to enter into gen eral peace plans for Europe. In his newspaper, Popolo d’ltalia, appeared an editorial, probably written by il duce himself, warning his fellow countrymen that no miraculous results may be expected from the conference of foreign ministers in Stresa. It as serted that the western European pow ers “must stabilize their line of com mon action against several eventuali ties which can be foreseen, and they must take definite responsibility.” It then charged that the French and British are impeding Mussolini’s wish to take action against Hitler because, of their preoccupation abodt their own internal policy. Premfer Flandin and Foreign Min ister Layal of France were reported to have devised a vast, new, flexible plan to organize the peace of the continent within the framework of the League of Nations. p OLAND appears to have decided to * play a lone hand In the European embroglio, though she remains friend ly to Germany. It is reported that Captain Eden’s visit to Warsaw was as disappointing as was that o f. Sir John Simon to Berlin. The Polish government is determined to sign no pact, that would commit the nation to fight for Russia against Germany or for Germany against Russia and France, nor will it permit either Ger man or Russian troops to be trans ported across Poland. The Polish statesmen say they wi!l sign a series of bilateral pacts, and will go as far as any other nation in parallel disar m ament They assert that they have no alliance with Germany, though their mutual troubles have been settled for the next ten yesrs, and that the alli ance with France still holds good. tpROM Tokyo there came a state-. * ment indicating that Japan would give at least moral support to the European powers that are seeking agreements to coun teract Hitler’s move for the re-armament of Germany. It was given out by Eiji Amau 1 the frequently quoted spokesman for the foreign office. He said Japan will hold aloof from the Euro pean crisis and that there would be no far eastern Locarno pact . but that “we cannot ' Amau think of any alliance with Germany.” Tokyo, asserted Amau, is ready to dis cuss with Russia some degree of de militarization of the eastern frontiers. C vOREIGN nations that discriminate * against American imports have been warned by President Roosevelt that they must discontinue that prac tice under penalty of - economic re prisals by the United States. In a let ter to Secretary of the Treasnry Mor- genthau the President outlined his for eign trade policy and disclosed the fact that the administration is considering denouncing existing trade pacts with Germany, Italy, Portugal and Denmark because of discrimination. He pro claimed the new Belgian-American reciprocal trade agreement and also decreed that, pending the conclusion of negotiations for new pacts now In progress, the reduced duties.and other concessions granted Belgium will be extended to Canada, Spain. The Neth erlands, Switzerland and Liditenstein for six months, T-JEBATE on the Copeland-Tugwell food, 'drug, cosmetic and adver tising bill was lively in the senate, and the opposition was led by a Democrat Josiab W. Bailey of North Carolina, who urged the retention of th*> present food and drug law with such amend ments as changed conditions require. “I understand the Department of Ag riculture was created to foster agri culture and not to govern advertising," Senator Bailey said. “It Is Inconceiv able to me that it should take charge of medicine, cosmetics, and advertis ing. There might be an argument that the department has made such great triumphs in agriculture that It is seek; ing new worlds to conquer. But I be lieve that if some one should make that boast I should agree that It had ex ceeded Samson In the slaughter of pigs, but had fallen far short of doing as good work in the foatter of cotton as has the boll weevil.” C TANLET REED, the new solicitor general, obtained from the Supreme court permission to dismiss the govern- menfs appeal In the Beldier lumber1 code caseT;5 Therefore; there probably will be no decision as to this constitu tionality of the national IndustrIai re covery act by the chief tribunal before congress takes action 'on the bill to extend the recovery law. WHEN the Illinois legislature, at the behest of Governor Horner and the federal administration, passed a state recovery act the New Dealers hailed this as an example that all states should follow. Now County Judge Homer W. Hall at Bloomington has held that the act is unconstitution al. He also declared the national auto mobile code Inoperative as applied to Illinois. Under the state recovery act judge remarked, an unlawful delega tion of the authority-of the state leg islature has brought about a situa tion whereby violations of the state act can be prosecuted by the state only through the sanction and b y the authority of the federal director of codes. T HROUGH the efforts of Donald Richberg, chairman of the NIEB, an agreement was reached by the bituminous c«al operators and the United Mine Workers, whereby the prevailing coal code Is extended to June 16 and a threatened strike of about half a million miners averted. The present wages and hours of work are continued. President Lewis of the miners insisted the union had not yielded to the operators; but the fact remained that if it had not consented to the agreement Mr. Richberg could and would have extended the code by executive order. SCORES of agents of the Department of Justice’s division of investigation were carrying on a concentrated search for three men now listed as the worst “public enemies” at large, according to Chief J. Edgar Hoover. The three are: Alvin Karpis, twenty-five, a lead er in the notorious Barker-Karpis kid nap and bank robbery gang; Raymond Hamilton, twenty-two, killer who broke jail while awaiting execution, and Thomas H. Robinson/ Jr., twenty- eight, kidnaper of Mrs. Alice Speed Stoll, wealthy young society matron of Louisville, Ky. National Topics Iaterpreted b y W illia m B ru c k a rt Washington, D, C.Katlonal Press BulldlnB ONE of America’s leading sculptors, Augustus Lukeman, died in New York at the age of sixty-four years. After Borglum was ousted by the Con federate memorial committee in . 1925, Lukeman took over the work of carv ing the huge memorial on the face of Stone mountain in Georgia, completing it in 1928. He was chief of sculptors at the World’s fair in Chicago. OBEYING alleged directions from the yacht on which President Roosevelt was fishing In Florida wa ters, the majority in the bouse refused to accept the restrictions injected In the work relief bill and sent It back to conference to have these removed. The restrictions objectionable to the administration were those requiring senate confirmation of administrative officers of the program and that In loaps and'grants to states at least one- third Of tfie money should be expended for direct labor. The latter require m ent according to Secretary Ickes and others, would result In the exclusion of rural electrification, slum clearance •and similar projects. Defending the move to send the bill back to conference, Buchanan of Geor gia said: "The President is assuming responsibility. AU we ask is to give him a bill that be can work on In shift ing from dole to employment.” In replying to Buchanan, Represent ative Robert Bacon (Rep., N. I.) con tended that the labor provision was needed In order to “kick out pet local projects” and afford as much direct relief, of unemployment as possible. “Congress has reached a pretty low ebb,”., declared Minority Leader Ber trand Snell (Rep., N. Y.), “when it can’t even pass on a conference report without receiving orders from the Chief Executive." C 1OR the second time the United * States Supreme court reversed the convictions and death sentences of two of the Scottsboro negroes who were ac cused of assault on two white girls. The court held that since negroes in Alabama are not permitted to serve on juries, they are denied “equal pro tection of the laws” in violation of the Fourteenth amendment It declared the state court erred in not quashing the indictments. This was a big victory for the col ored race, but in another decision by the Supreme court the negroes were the losers. The tribunal ruled that the Democratic party In Texas is a voluntary association,, not SHbject to control by the state legislature, and as such may exclude colored persons from voting In its primaries. , «-v IRECT negotiations with Italy over -the -border dispute were broken off by the Ethiopian government, which sent a new note to the League Of Nations. Special* measures were taken to protect foreigners In Addis Ababa. The Italian government did not take this rupture seriously, still hoping a-peaceful arrangement might be reached without the intervention of the league. ............. INETEEN cardinals met with J.-N Pope Pius in a , secret consis tory, and to them he delivered an em phatic denunciation of war, which, he said, “would be.so enormous''a-crime so foolish a manifestation of fury, we believe it absolutely Impossible.”' If, however, there, is someone who wishes to commit “this nefarious crime,” then, the holy father, said, he could do noth ing else than pray to God to-“destroy those people whoj deslrei war,” - The consistory approved' the canon ization of Blessed Thomas More, g w Henry VDTs chancellor, and Bishop John Fisherof England, who tost thelr- heads for opposing Henryra io Anne Boieyn. Washington.— President Roosevelt has submitted to eongress a Ust of a t legislation b eLaysOtttWork^ deems - neces- for Congress ^b av e the present session adjourns. He has divided it into two categories—“m usf and desirable. If congress enacts only the list of “must" legislation and passes over the other group of bills which the President considers desir able, it is made to appear that the membership of the house and senate is due to suffer some of the torrid temperature and the uncomfortable humidity of a Washington summer. The President said he must have legis lation extending the National Recovery administration, providing social -se* curity, eliminating public utility hold ing companies, increasing the loaning power of the Home Owners Loan corpor ation, extension of the so-called nuisance taxes which expire by limitation of law on June 30, and revision of the banking latfs. In. addition, the President made known that be would like to have en acted legislation to take the profits out of-war, whatever that may mean. He previously had sent a message asking enactment of a law providing for expansion of the American merchant marine through the use of ship sub sidies. and he also desires to have en acted legislation setting up machinery for the settlement of labor disputes. This legislation is In the congressional hopper in the form of a bill by Senator Wagner, of New York. The President would like to have amendments to the agricultural ad justment act in order to eliminate some of the weaknesses which the AAA peo ple admit exist The airmail contract situation is another m atter with which Mr. Roosevelt has been concerned. Seasoned observers recognize that this list of “must” legislation, not to mention the desired legislation, is suf ficient to keep congress grinding away far into the summer. They recognize likewise that if the desired legislation later becomes of such concern that the President wants to place it on the pre ferred-list as well, the membership of congress must be prepared to forego summer trips of any kind. * * * Since a good many members of congress have grown tired of being . called rubber stampsPets of for the administra- Their Own tion, they naturally have turned atten tion to legislation which they think will be helpful to their own bailiwlck3. to themselves personally or from a party standpoint Thus there have been promoted numerous pieces of legisla tion for which some individuals, at least, entertain greater fervor than they, do for measures that were drafted by President Roosevelt’s ofiicial family and transmitted to congress as ad ministration legislation. It is the general observation that an in dividual, representative, or senator frequently will go much further In fighting for legislation that is his own brain child than for legislation placed before him on a' silver platter sucb as administration proposals have been. Consequently, individual or group measures are constantly clut tering up house and senate legislative calendars. This Is a factor meaning delay for administration bills. It is to be remembered, as has been reported In these columns, that Mr.- Roosevelt is unable to ward off criti cism of some of his proposals. In deed, there have been Democratic criti cisms and Democratic opposition to a greater or lesser degree to all of the legislation he has proposed since con gress convened last January All of which is by*way of saying that con gress faces weeks of committee work and floor debate despite the fact that the house Democratic, leaders still re tain rather solid control of a sufficient majority In the lower bouse of con gress to drive through any pet meas ures for the administration. In the senate the situation Is decidedly dif ferent Included in the legislation being fos tered by individual members 1s the bill that would permit cabinet officers to appear on the floors .of congress for questioning and explanation, such as •occurs under the British and French parliamentary systems. The adminis tration does not want this bill. . It will have to exert some pressure to avoid passage. The reason is that the Roose velt administration Is no longer one In which the cabinet is dominant Cab inet officers^ are only part of the scheme^ and “if congress wanted to in quire about the handling of relief money, which it probably will desire* it must talk with Administrator Hopkins. Mr. Hopkins is not in the cabinet The same is true of NRA and to a>me extent-to the AAA, although Secretary WaUace of the Department of Agricnl- tpre theorfetlcally is a superior officer to Administrator Davis. The ad ministrator- S definitely opposed ro' the passage: of bonus legislation for the former soldiers, sailors and marines and It looks ltke a Presidential veto will be necessary there. The Mnif J8 true of -tnflationary-proposalg of which there are many; The situ atio n ^ one therefore, In which Mt. Roosevelt mnst be constantly on his guard to prevent action which he does not want as well as being fortifl§a at all flmea with '■It pressure to put through the ie»i«iIslaaoa Thoj ■ ' he has described as necessarr. it Is seen he is confronted with complications which did not dj5tn.; - him In the first two sessions o fV , Deal congresses and these eumnifa Hons mean a longer life for the con rent session. » « • Let us examine the status of tl» legislation which the President Some ttMusef ouX^r^m etS Legislation Iike this: The extension (J the National Recovery administratis/ Is still far off. Senate hearing art just ended and the house is still fyj ther behind. No action can be expect, ed In either body for several W6eJi The present law expires June is. Recently Mr. Roosevelt sent to coj. gress a very bitter message den.** Ing pubUc utility holding compania and demanding legislation elirniriatiBj them from our economic structure. Tl* house committee considering this Iegfe lation Is just winding up its hearings and the senate committee which win have jurisdiction has taken n# action at all. It must be said that a hard fight is In prospect if and when this legislation reaches the stage of de bate because investors in these com panies are not going to have their equi ties destroyed while they sit idly by. These investors are doing more now than just making faces at congress anil the volume of letters which tcemberj are receiving in opposition to the hold ing companies legislation trmiscenda anything that ever has happened In Qk memory of this correspondent. The banking legislation which Mt Roosevelt has proposed, or which ra proposed for him by Governor EccIes1 the New Deal and radical governor of the federal reserve board is faced with opposition equally as bitter and as well organized as that confront!? the holding companies bill. Perhaps It can be said that opposition to the banking legislation is even stronger because In that fight the PresiM will be opposed by Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, who must be regard ed as the most virulent of all the Dem ocrats In the senate. The house halt ing committee has about done its job with hearings on this bill bur the sen ate committee where the fnli force of the Glass opposition will be felt has not even set a date for committee con sideration. The social security bill stall Mr. Roosevelt has done mudi tattaus, because it is distinctly a reform meas ure, has finally been redrafted in the house while senate leadership is un able to get together on any policy respecting i t Some senators want to split up this bill and pass the section providing for old age pensions, alio® ing the other parts of the bill to 6 a slow death. The legislation to Increase by $1,156- 000,000 the loaning power of the H oe Owners Loan corporation probably nil get through the senate without m®i more ado. The house passed the bU because it could not do otherwise will individual members realizing th» there was a chance that some of thii •' money would go into their partlcnlai districts. Included In this bill is I line that promises a good many hun dred jobs for politicians and it is nat- ural that the party in power is M going to overlook this possibility. There remains on the “must” K then, only the proposal to extend ft* nuisance taxes which expire at ttw end of June. It is probable that ft* bulk of these levies will be accept^ by congress as necessary. One cannot fail, in tramping aroanJ Washington these days, to note the Ce- quent expressic81 About the concerning the ort' FtAitre look for the Sf* Deal and for Pu* dent Roosevelt’s personal political ft ture. In fact, some hardboiled * servers lately have been heard to sal that M?. Roosevelt Is suffering Wa too much ballyhoo. He was put «P ® a pedestal that made of him 1» “e eyes of many persons something of J superman.

The present session of the' North Cardlina IegisIature miy have ac complished something tfcAt is got d for the state as.a whole, but if to the people of the state have not as vet been informed of the .deed. I isJn all probaoility, the weakest most narrow, most selfish general assembly ever meeting- m .ti e citv of Raleigh Thousands of new laws have been enacted, alinpst all of which have been local measures have been of the narrow, partisan or personal kind. When the legislature convened Iast-Januarv (It is now April) the one thought uppermost in the mindf of the people of the state was that looking to the adequate support of the free public schools. Yet very, little has been done for the schools. Itistruethat a little increase of -something' like 25 per cent is con. templated, for_the pay of school ..eachers, yet when it is remember ed that the average pay of the school teachers of the'state was less than $500 a year, this increase be comes .a mere pittance. With this small increase, in dollars and cents, that will accrue to the legislature also increased the salaries of the solicitors of the' state, and of - all other office holding gentry of the commonwealth, practically. Herein-lies the true situation^—a situation that ought to condemn this general assembly forever in the minds of thi right thinking citizens jf North Carolina. The solicitors, all of whom entered the primaries £;TJ$£MBER 4o iresentative, can hive repeal of:the absentee ballot law even for thatir- Iividual county. ~ ' In the m antime, tie highwa> -obbery costs of auto tags are to re -nain about the same.

Taken all in all, this present ses-’ 'ion of the North Carolina legisia tire is just about the nearest noth mg, insofar as statesmanship is. con cerned and state legislation consfd jred, of any gathering of its ki|d in the history of the state.—West ern Carolina Tribune. '. : Sees Defeat Of F. D. R. In 1936. „| Norwalk. O., April 11 .—John Hamilton, Kansas Republican na tional committeeman, told a gather ing of Ohio G.’O.

Then, to meet these increased salaries of Ithe political pets, the legislature is adopting a sales tax placed upon the very breed and that avery citizen must have. The most lamnable thing any state can do is to place a sales tax upon the bread and meat and milk and other like ^ssentians. But the legislature did this, ^nd every inan, woman and child in the state will be paying a ax upon every mouthful of food they eat that the solicitor and'other •itate officials may receive ino'fe pay. Even the Supreme court of the state of North Carolina is to have more money —money that Is to come 'from the food that people, eat. . Tb cap the climax, our great leg islature is now proposing to place a -sales tax.upOn the meals that peo pie eat in restaurants and hotels. The Devil in Hell must be delight ed with a-legislature that goes to this extreme. • ' • ' _ ^ , People in North Carolina would, we believe; be willing to pay taxes in-a’ny way or-manner if such re venues were to go to such people as the school teachers. But when this- money is.to be given in the main to office-holders who are aiready mak ing more than they could make in any private enterpiise, it is little wonder that the people of tbe state are ready to rise up and cast from, their already over-burdened should ers this form of tyranny unheard of before in the history of the state. • r As an indication of the narrow partisanship of the.present legisla ture, no reform is to be allowed in the election; laws. The absentee ballot, used as a means of . stealing nominations an?-,elections, is t°- ^ kepTat^all hazards,, an'* now com® the word that even counties so de siring the repeal of *he absentee ballott 'law are not to be permitted to enjoy, the rigbt,of.-Iocal ?elf gov ernment, as it is emphatically stated lhat no other county, eveu upon the insistent .demand of.

This makes important Russia's an- j councement that she Is manufactur- ‘ ing airplanes on a mass production basis, using for air power “an ordi- I cary light automobile engine.” The I planes, very cheap, using ordinary gasoline, will be supplied to collec tive farms. Russia may be the first nation to do with flying machines : what this country did with antomo- [ 'ales, American genius put this na tion on wheels. If Russian engi neering skill puts Russia on wings. It will make some other countries thoughtful. A young man is found strangely murdered, or committing suicide In an unusual way, hanging from a low tree. His legs were fastened behind his back with chains, chains were around his hands and neck, and a medal that he had won in an ath letic contest was fastened with a safety pin to one of his nostrils. The man, thirty-one, who had been^ employed In moving pictures’ as a substitute for actors under danger ous conditions, Is believed by police, to have tilled himslelf in a strange way, through vanity, to attract atten tion, climbing to the limb of a tree, adjusting the chain, dropping and strangling. Police quote a superstition of cer tain .IIalays who believe that evil Eiiirits carry oft their souls if they kill themselves. When they commit Eiiicide they exhaust their ingenuity In efforts to die in such a fashion as to make suicide seem impossible, that the spirits after inspection may decide that the dead man was mur dered and leave, his soul In peace. During prohibition, the habit of drunkenness was acquired by many, particularly young women. They yield more easily than men to the effects of alcohol and drugs, and once “caught” they are caught for life, usually. American fathers and mothers that give cocktail parties for their sons and daughters, or permit them In their houses, should be told plainly that they are using their money to make drunkards of the daughters and sons, and are not fit to have, or bring up, children. In addition to moving 60,000 more soldiers to the German lines. Prance is hurriedly connecting her steel and concrete line of fortresses, with barbed wire entanglements and trenches.

Hriiis added to race antagonism, and fito influence of certain “exhorters,” brings results reminding citizens of what may happen when dangerous doc trines are preached recklessly. The latest news Indicates that Chan- cciior Hitler is not as anxious for “war “ a hurry” as was alleged. Sir John Simon, for England, re ceived from Hitler a written proposal: First, a ten-year nonaggression eaty with Germany’s neighbors, no- toly to attack anybody else. Second, a pledge to withhold eco- omic and financial assistance from *ny nation starting a war. Hitler wrote that, and, if he means Ll°yd George is correct In his state- flWht: “Not this time.” Kln^ Features Syndicate- Intw WNU Service, find moon Changes EARTH DISTANCES Shifts of 63 Feet Between the Continents Reported. Cambridge, Mass.—The gravitational pull of the mOon apparently creates tides in the solid earth which change the distance between North America and Europe as much as sixty-three feet, according to Dr. Harlan T. Stet son, visiting professor at the Harvard Institute ’ of Geographical- Exploration, and Dr. A. L. Loomis of the Loomis laboratory at Tuxedo Park, N. Y. The effect of such an earth tide larger than could have been expected was detected when Doctor Stetson and Doctor Loomis found that discrepan cies in astronomically checked clocks In Europe and in North America in creased and decreased regularly with changes in the moon’s position. Clocks Checked. Clocks are checked astronomically by comparison with the movement of stars across the meridian, a semi-cir cle running through north and south and a point directly over the observ er’s head. If discrepancies are found in two clocks, thus checked by the stars, then thfe position of either one or the other of the stations appears to have moved east or west thus changing the observer’s meridian. The scientists discovered that the discrepancies between American and European clocks, at astronomical sta tions where the checking was done regularly, moved either east or west of their normal positions. When the po sition of the moon caused both stations to move apart, the average distance between tnein might be increased by about thirty-two feet, they found. If the moon caused them to move toward each other, they might be nearer to gether by the same amount. United States time signals checked at Washington are broadcast from the naval station at Annapolis, Md.; Eng lish time signals, checked at Green wich, are broadcast from Rugby, and French time signals, ohecked at Paris, are broadcast from Bordeaux. At specified times, each station picks up the signals of the other two. Note Discrepancies. Discrepancies noted between An napolis time signals and those from Rugby were seen to rise and fall with the moon's position. Almost exactly the same curves of-rise and fall hp-. plied to the transmission between An napolis and Bordeaux. But between Rugby and Bordeaux, no. such rela- ionship was seen. Evidently some thing takes place over the Atlantic which does not take place between England and France. The two. scientists found-that -.when the moon Was north of the equator, the continents were about thirty-two feet closer together than normally when the moon crossed the meridian, and that they spread, apart until, when the moon’s hour angle was about fourteen, the continents were about thirty-two feet further apart than on the average. When the moon was south of the equator, exactly the opposite was true, tbe continents moving together when the moon was crossing: the meridian, and traveling apart gradually until the moon’s hour angle was about twelve. Twins Discover Value of Science at 16 Months New^ York.—Science pays! That was the conclusion today of sixteen-month-old Margie as - she watched her scientifically trained twin, Florrie, snatch a piece of candy, from under her very eyes. Columbia . university psychologists beamed with pride. Florrie’s training enabled her to figure out a way to cap ture the candy, placed on top of a box, while Margie could only reach in vain. Florrie used a smaller box for a step. Jimmy and Johnny, also twins, aged three, proved the same theory. John ny. psychologically trained, was able to climb ap to the candy, while Jimmy, his untrained twin, only fell on his nose.Margie and Jimmy, the untrained twins, surveyed tbe situation resent fully. Jimmy remarked, with justice; “ ’Tain’t fair!” Her 81 Dogs Raided by City ; Woman W ill Sue Indianapolis--Charging that the city was liable .for $300 damages for per mitting bej Si dogs to escape and that families ->f pups had been hopelessly mixed-up.

IM PRO V ED U N IF O R M IN TE R N A T IO N A L S UNDAyl CHOOL Lesson By REV. P. B. FIT2WATER, D. D„ Member of Faculty, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.©, Western Newspaper Union. L e s s o n f o r A p r i l 28 THE HOLY SCRIPTURES LESSON TEXT—II Timothy 3:14-17; Psalm 19:7-14. GOLDEN TE X T-O how love I thy law! It Is my meditation ail the day.—1 Psalm 119:97. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Book God Gave Us. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Book God Gave Us. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—How >to Use the Bible. TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP IC—Inspiration and Authority of the Bible. I. The Origin or Source (II Tim. 3:16). They are inspired of God, which lit erally Rie:.DS “God-breathed.’’ Peter says “Holy men spake from God, being moved by the Holy Ghost” (II Pet. I: 21). When Paul declares the Scrip tures to be God-breathed. he means that the utterances resulted from God’fe breath in men’s mouths. Because they are God-breathed they are the veritable words of God. The holy Scriptures not only contain the word of God, but they are in verity the message of God to men. II. The Value of the Scriptures (II Tim. 3:14-17). 1. Able to make wise unto -salvation (v. 15). Salvation is alone in Christ. It is obtained through faith In his finished work on the cross. 2. Disciplines the life (vv. 16, 17). It is profitable for doctrine, which Is the divine standard of conduct. In the Holy Bible alone is to be found this standard of life. Not only is it the standard of life, but of all thought. Then, too, it reproves, that is, confutes error. The way to deal with error Is not denunciation, but the positive pres entation of the revealed truth. It also corrects, that is, sets straight many of the dislocations of personal and social conduct The Word of God is the standard of measurement which sets straight the lives of moral beings. 'Further, it instructs in righteousness and thoroughly, equips the minister for Christian service. The mastery of God’s holy Word is the indispensable equipment for Christian service. One who lacks this knowledge of the holy Scriptures is utterly unfit for the Chris tian ministry, no- matter Iiow well trained he may be In other things. III. The. Nature and Effect of God’s Law (Ps. 19:7-11). , I. It Is perfect. It is without a flaw, rt' converts and restores -the'/soul: it’ turns man back to God himself to-lead a life of holiness; It not only"converts sinners, but restores the saints to di vine fellowship. 2. It is sure. It Is absolutely de pendable. Man’s reasonings change, but God’s Word endures forever. God cannot lie. It makes wise the simple. Common men and women as to natural gifts become wise even In the rightful things of the world, because of their mastery of the Word of God. 3. It is right. The precepts and judg ments of the Lord are expressions of absolute righteousness because they proceed from the righteous God and are, therefore. Inherently right 4. It is pure. There is no admixture of error. There is no compromise with that which is untrue. Because of this, it enlightens the eyes. AU that mars the spiritual vision is taken away. Con duct for the Christian is clearly de fined. 5. It is clean. This is seen in the effects of the Word of God upon the life. The individual who is sanctified by it is clean within and without. - 6. It. is true and righteous. The de cisions of God’s Word are true without exception. The judgments of God’s Word are unimpeachable. Because of these qualities, God’s Word is more to be desired than the choicest of. gold. Obedience thereto brings great reward. IV. The Prayer of the Believer (Ps. 19:12-14). The life brought face to face with God’s Word is seen as sinful. The soul cries out for L Cleansing (v. 12). The perfect law reveals the imperfections of the life. The Word of God reveals sins of which the individual may be ignorant 2. To be kept from presumptuous sins. Presumptuous sins are peculiarly dangerous. In the Mosaic economy no sacrifice was provided for such sins. 3. Freedom from the dominion of such sins (v. 13). How awful is the slavery of those who are in bondage to presumptuous sins. 4. That the words of the mouth and the meditations of the heart be kept In line with God’s Word (V. 14). From many dangers the believer would be saved if the words and meditations of his heart were kept In line with tbe Scriptures!

His errand is to plant apple seeds In the wilderness that orchards may be there awaiting the white settlers when th«>v arrive. This was his er rand foi 46 years. Like a good many other beneficent cranks he is supposed to nave been born In Bos ton, and perhaps the wine of revolu tion mixed with his blood, for his birth year is given as 1775. Of holy books he had two: the Bible and Emmanuel Swedenborg, which he read aloud to border families by the light of cabin fires; he ate no meat, killed no living creatures—not even venomous reptiles—befriended ani mals, went unharmed, though all but naked, in a savage wilderness that teemed with wild beasts and Indians, and these last venerated him as a powerful “medicine.” In 1812 he spread the alarm of an impending In dian attack and saved hundreds of settlers from massacre. But more than saint, he was artist, and his art-form was the apple. It was a passionate conviction with him that the tree should be raised from the seed, and he chose bis orchard sites for fertility and picturesqueness with the fastidious taste of poet and painter, fenced the enclosure, and returned each year to tend his trees. Ohio people still remember him with affection for his were the first fruits of their wilderness.—Boston Globe. Dr. Pierce’s Pellets are best for liver, bowels and stomach.

But she could not be mean to Edith tonight, when Edith had finished up the dishes, and stayed at home. So she smiled, too, and went on with her undressing. Her mood began to change; everything was all right “Ilow long was Phil gone?” “Oh, not long. 1Bout an hour." “He didn’t—” Gail paused. "No, he didn't have time to see any body. I don't believe he's so crazy about Lily Cass,” Edith opined. “He and Dick had to go over to the iron Works, didn’t they?” "Yea And, by the way, Dick’s sleeping 'here, because be and Phil want to get up at Bve and go over and see an installation—or something— at Milpitas.

But I like old Dick!” "Oh, so do I,’’ the younger sister agreed eagerly. She went away, and Gail lay musing, her open book in her hands. Tbe mem ory of her parting with Van, in the deep black night gloom at the gate, kept returning to buzz about her like a midge, and spoil all the other recol lections. Sbe put out her light, - but her thoughts milled and milled unceasingly. YVbat had happened to the gay, com panionable mood of the earlier eve- niug? What had made the parting so labored, so arti&cial? “Why is it,” Gaii asked herself sav agely, “that I can get along so beauti fully with girls, and act like such a fool with boys? If he’d been a girl, tonight, I would have gone on talking, laughing, putting off coming Into the bouse. I would have kept saying, 'Lis- fea. I have to go In.’ “Ob, well, what difference does it make! We'U all be dead in a hundred years!” And so restlessly off to sleep, oddly baffled and dissatisfied after this mar velous day on which the dream had come true. The next day she and Edith had real trouble to think about and to discuss aa they walked to work.

She’s an awfully sweet little thing—she’s bad an awfully rough deal.” Edith had felt every fiber of her being stiffen; Gail’s hands had begun to tremble as she had said pleasantly, confusedly: “Well, of course—if she’d like It, Phil.” “Why shouldn't she like it?” Phil had asked in a ’level, challenging voice. "No reason why I Except—hasn't she rather young children?” “Yep. She has three kids.” Phil had been refilling his coffee cup. “I don’t think she’d come!” Gall had said, uncomfortable but deter mined. “You might try!” I’hll’s voice had been IeveL composed. He had re turned to his newspaper with no fur ther reference to the subject His sisters, In utter consternation, had spoken since of little else. “She’s simply mesmerized him, that’s all! It’s just too horrible!” “GaiL" we couldn’t ask her to the bouse!” “I don’t think we could.” They parted on the dubtons note, deeply worried, as they had been wor ried so many, many times before about Sam, Ariel, Phil in turn, about family finances, social complications. “Just when I was—sort of—looking forward to Sunday-night suppers,” Gall offered In parting, when they came to the Calle. “Yes, I know!” Edith answered quickly. “What on earth can we do, Edltb, If Phil says anything more?” “Well, have her, !.suppose!” “But she’s simply—she’s simply not respectable!” “I know." “I mean, everyone knows what those Wlbsers are, and the Cass boys are just gangsters!” “I know,” Edith conceded again anx iously. They went their ways. Gail’s thoughts went to Van, however, at In- "I Don't Believe He’s So Crazy About Llly Cass.” 'tervals during that day and the next day. She began the girl’s calendar: “It’s only one full day since-1 saw him—IPs only two full days—it’s only the morning of the third day.” C H A P T E R I V It began to seem like a dream to her that he and she had been laughing over the, library counter last Saturday night, and that he had come to sup per with the Lawrences, and that she had gone down the highway, beyond Dumbarton bridge, to Old Aunt Mary’s for a late supper and dancing. Editb asked, delicately, lightly, If there had been any telephoning, dur ing the day, and Gall became expert In careless replies. And then quietly, indifferently, "Oh, yes I Van Murchison was In. It seems Mrs. Cbipp is having a house party down at their place In the Santa Cruz mountains a week from this week-end, and she wants me to go I” “W hat!” Edith ejaculated, incred ulous. “Oh, GaiL aren’t you excited?” Gail laughed a little protestingly. “But yes I am,” she admitted hon estly, “terribly excited!

You. know very well you’re not. an intimate friend of hers. Why should she ask you? I’d much rather go a place because a boy wanted me .than because his mother did!” And laughing helplessly and a little shocked, Edith and Gail admitted that there was something in this view. “I have everything,’’ GaU said, have my blue velvet; I have mj’ Christ mas slippers; I have my whUe haL PU do my old linen up myself I it U be fine for roughing—walking or any thing.

"Did she come In, Gait, or did Bhe write a note?” An instant chill. . Then Gall said casually, “Neither, my dear. She sent a message by Van.” There was a silence Editb stood distressed and disappointed In the cen ter of the kitchen; Ariel looked up alertly from her book. Gail went on busily with her cooking. “Well, she will write?” began Edith, OD an upward Inflection. “She may!’’ Gail agreed indifferently. “Well, you won’t think of accepting unless she ■ does write, Gail?” Edith persisted unhappily. “My dear Edith, we are living In the Twentieth century, not In the good old days of Pamela and Evelina.” “Well, I’m very much surprised at you!” Edith said, trembling. Dinner was served in a sulphurous silence. Phil, hungry, grimy, and tired, noted at once that something was wrong, and bis first question brought the whole thing down upon him in an avalanche. Gall was flushed and aDgry. Editb reasonable and cooL They talked at once, and Phil frowned faintly, smiled faintly, as he looked from one face to another. “Phil, Isn’t it ridiculous in this day and generation to expect a person to send you an engraved Invitation—” “I didn't say an engraved invita tion !” “Because, I mean, everything’s done so informally now, and people tele phone invitations to weddings I” “No, but listen, Phil! We’ve always held up our heads, and beeD known as girls who weren’t cheap, who wouldn’t jazz—haven’t we, Phil? It’s all we have —It’s us,” Edith, her eyes suddenly wet with tears, went on shakily. Philip had championed Gall all her life, and she adored him as her un failing authority. It was therefore like a blow In her face to have him say. judicially, over his pipe: “I’m not so sure but what Ede’s right Gail. You aren’t sure that Van Murchison—he’s an awfully nice kid, and he’s most amusing and all. that, and be means well enough—but you aren’t sure that this kid ever spoke to bis aunt at all How do you know—” “Oh, listen, listen!” Gail said, man aging a laugh, 'but inwardly seething with fury. “He didn't ask me to go to China I He asked me to go for two nights to Los Gatos—and Fm going! That’s all there is to it!” There was a full minute of dead silence during which her angry voice hung In the air. Then Ariel expelled a long, sighing breath, and Phi! shrugged philosophically. “You’re of age,” he said briefly. Nothing more. The girls, as they cleared the table, avoided each other’s, eyes and presently began to talk life lessly of other things. Phil went out without another glance* or words for his favorite sister. When Gail and Ariel chanced to be for a minute alone in the kitchen, Ariel seized the opportunity to say eagerly : “Stick it out, Gail! If every one felt the way Edith does, no one would have any fun at all! We’d aU be old maids t” Ariel’s sympathy was very sweet But it did not have the value of Edith’s approval. On the contrary, there was something disturbing In this sugges tion of a general mutiny against the Lawrence way of doing things. Ariel had arranged with a boy friend that he should call her on the tele phone at eight o’clock, and she should answer his call with a pleasant duti ful “Oh, yes, Miss Hemmet ?” Miss Hemmet was her mathematics teacher. She would then say to Gail, “Gail, Fm going over to Miss Hemmett 1B, and then I’m going to meet the crowd at the corner and go down to Sticky Dob bins’ for some ice cream. I asked Phil, and be said, ’AU right’” It was a risky game she was playing, but after ail it was a game. Edith was playing no game at all, and Gaii was demonstrating more forcefully every instant how little she knew of the rules. Better anything than to spend one’s evening darning the fraternal socks, as Editb was placidly preparing to do, or patiently to settle down to helping Sam with his correspondence school aviation work, like Gall. The telephone rang. “Take it, freshman!” Gall said to her younger sister. But Ariel needed no prompting; she was already half way to the halL “Oh, thank yon. Miss Hemmet I will!” her sisters heard her say. She came back to her'w ork with her transparent* skin exquisitely flushed, and her strange eyes alight “GaiL Miss Hemmet wants me to come over. And Phil said we could go to Dob bins’ afterward.” "Oh, that’s all right Co ahead!” Gail said absently. Arierfaded from sight silently, was gone. Later Dirit Stebbins looked In at the kitchen door. “Peanuts, anybody ?” "Phil's gone,” Gail said. * “i’ll follow, him up.” But Dick came in Instead. Gall noiselessly escaped into the dining room and secured her little playing cards. She came back to the kitchen-table and began to play. Edltb matched socks thoughtfully, frowning at their stripes and selvages, The gas sang, and Dick stood up and lowered IL . _Gail’s thoughts rocked to and fro deliciously; she was writing a story.

R. ALLEN GRIFFITH HOW TEETH INFECT THE SYSTEM YJTirlTH the exception of venereal dis- V v ease, every disease, every germ that enters the human system must enter through the mouth, nose or a break In the skin. The mouth is the most extensive breeding place for germs. Before any disease can gain a foothold in the human system, it must have a place of incubation and a period of incubation and that place is the un clean mouth. Where are the pneumococcus, the tu bercle bacillus, the virus of scarlet fever, measles, croup, etc., most fre quently found? In the unclean human mouth.. We are not astonished when we find millions of chains of the six varieties of streptococci and millions of pneumococci in the average mouth and these are among the dangerous dis ease germs. AU of these micro-or ganisms are absorbed from spaces around and between the teeth into the mucous membrane of the mouth and into the tonsils. They are swallowed into the stomach and drawn into the lungs. Constant and persistent doses of micro-organisms and their toxins ultimately break down the resistance of the healthy human organism. The germs found in diseased teeth and septic mouths are swept into the stomach with solid and liquid food and infected saliva. While many of them are destroyed, many of them pass into the intestines where they set up putre faction and manufacture toxins and food poisons. These have a special predilection for nerve cells. The absorption of micro-organisms and their toxins Into the circulation is responsible for rheumatism, arth ritis and endocarditis. The micro-or ganisms are carried by the blood stream to the joints and heart where they produce these destructive diseases. This has been proven by injecting into guinea pigs cultures made from the mouths of persons so infected, the same diseases being produced in the guinea pigs. Also, treatment of the mouth has caused an improvement or cure of the diseased conditions. Without treatment of the mouth, the cure of many of these diseases by sys tematic treatment otherwise has failed and will continue to faiL At the Century of Progress in Chi cago In the dental exhibit was shown the fossil jaw of a mammoth which contained a dental abscess that would hold three and one-half quarts of pus. Who knows but what this dental ab scess may have caused the death of even this' immense prehistoric animal? * * *. . THE FIRST PERMANENT TOOTH THE first permanent tooth comes into the mouth between the sixth and seventh years. It comes in just back of the baby teeth and is fre quently mistaken for a baby tooth because it does not replace another tooth. It is called the six-year molar, and is the largest and most impor tant tooth in the dental arch. The six year molar is of the great est concern to dentists. Most dentists are famtliar with the troublesome na ture of the tooth. It drives more chil dren to the dentist than all other teeth combined. If we are to do the most for chil dren we must save the six-year mo lars. When the six year molars are extracted the dental arch is robbed of- its support It soon collapses. The teeth In front of it fail backward and a space appears between the front teeth. The beautiful, symmetrical curve of the face is lost and nothing can restore it The six-year molars are particularly valuable because they do most of the chewing for a period of five yeers. These four teeth take their places when the child is six years of age, the upper biting squarely upon the lower. There are no teeth back of them until the child is twelve years of age, when the second molars come In. In front of them are the baby molars which are small and frail and are not made for chewing heavy food. If the baby molars are lost or decayed they cannot assist the six-year molars in chewing food. Thus, for five years, the four six-year molars are compelled to chew all the food that goes to nour ish the rapidly developing child. The six-year molars also act as a prop to hold the jaws apart while the other permanent ■ teeth are coming In. The pressure of the jaws falls upon these four teeth until the other back teeth' come In . between the ages of ten and twelve, and in case one or two of these first permanent teeth are IosL the jaws are not held open the correct distance and the jaws close upon the other teeth that are only part way in, forcing them out of line and prevent ing them from coming entirely In. The only-proper way to care for your children’s teeth is to place the child In the care of a dentist at three years of age. He will keep the child’s teeth free from decay if the visits are made at frequent intervals. He will fill small cavities as soon as they ap pear, and keep the teeth free from stains and tartar. He will tell you how to keep the mouth In a dean, healthy condition, and if this rule is followed the permanent teeth will come In In a clean, healthy mouth free from decay.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Prime Ministers of Three Nations Confer at Stresa- dent Roosevelt, Busy With Work Relief Program, Prods Congress. By EDWARD W. PICKARD ©, Western Newspaper Union. -Presi- W m SIX of Europe’s foremost statesmen, with experts aod secretaries, sol emnly considered peace plans and Se-. curity pacts on Isola Bella, a lovely little island in .I.ak<* Magsiore off Stresa- Ita ly. The conference was momentous, but it was of an . “explora tory” nature, and no definite results were * i expected. Prime Mih ister Ramsay MacDon ald and Foreign Sec retary Sir John Simon, representing Great Britain, were willing Prtfmfcr carry out that na- Flandin tion's military obliga tions under the Locarno treaty but balked at further commitment In con tinental affairs.Anyhow, they had promised to enter Into no new agreements without the consent of parliament, which cannot be consulted until after the Easter holi days. Premier Flandin and Foreign Minister Laval of France sought to per suade England to line up with France and Russia rather than with Germany: -and they presented as one argument a new mutual assistance pact they had just signed with Russia. Premier Mus solini. solemn and pessimistic, handled matters for Italy with the help of Fulvio Suvich, undersecretary of for eign affairs. He had already warned the world that the issue of war or peace probably could not be settled at Stresa.Of course, the chief question was the attitude of other nations toward the constantly growing Pan-Germanism of the reich under Hitler, and the first concrete problem taken up was France’s, appeal to the League of Na tions against Germany’s repudiation of the military clauses of the Versailles treaty. Mnssolini and MacDonald were inclined to accept Hitler’s rearmament if there could be an agreement against further military expansion, but Flan- dfn stood in opposition. The Italians urged a three-power alliance for protec tion against Germany, but England ob jected and France was uncertain. All three nations rather favored the re armament of Austria, Bulgaria and Hungary, and the Danube pact which Italy especially has been promoting. MUSSOLINI’S pessimistic frame of mind was illustrated by an an nouncement in his newspaper, Popolo d’ltalia, that Italy would keep 600,000 men under arms “until the horizon is ■well cleared, and give them all modern weapons.” Both the Italians and the French are convinced that Germany ts maliciously stirring up the troubles that confront them In northern Africa with the purpose of weakening their position In Europe. This matter was discussed privately by some of the -participants In the Stresa meeting. THE new mutual assistance agree ment reached by France and Russia was at first supposed to be merely an agreement on sanctions to be taken against an aggressor once the latter has been determined by the League of ■Nations. But Paris correspondents as sert that It is In effect a military alli ance such as Russia had been urging on France and that In certain cases the signatories will determine for them selves who is the aggressor, without waiting for word from Geneva. The agreement is, of course, directed pri marily against Germany. It Is believed In Paris that Russia will soon con clude similar alliance with Czecho slovakia and the Baltic states, thus completing a steel ring around Ger many's land frontiers. This agreement is still subject to alteration and final approval. That Russia still seeks "to maintain and strengthen the general peace" was sbown by the signing of a Russo-Ger man trade treaty which It Is believed ■will greatly Increase the volume of Russia’s orders In the reich. Under this accord the Soviet will increase purchases In Germany by 200,000.000 marks (about $80,000,000), a banking consortium headed by the Deutsche Bank and Discount Gesellschaft and the Dresdner bank to grant import credits for an average term of five years. The credits will bear Interest at the discount rate of the reichsbank plus 2 per cent. The Russian trade delegation Is thereby enabled to pay cash for orders placed with German firms. An n o u n c em en t was made by the government that it had uncovered extensive frauds' In the immigration and naturalization service from 1923 to 1933, and steps were taken for the ousting of a number of employees and for criminal prosecutions. It was es timated that a ring of bribe takers and fixers had received as much as a mil- lion dollars from persons illegally en tering the country. “Revelations so startling In character .have come to light that investigators believe, the actual extent of corruption and fraud has been but partially dis closed.’’ said a statement Issued by the !Labor department after a secret'Inves tigation of alleged frauds in the New JXork district “Sums ranging up to $100 are alleged to have been paid in cases involving false witnesses or passing of an appli cant who had failed in his test of knowledge Of the government or his ability to speak English. “It is alleged that fees ranging from $300 to $1,200 were levied in cases In volving fraudulent or altered manifest records, where it was desirable to ob tain a record that would safeguard an alien from deportation or procure citi zenship status by showing his legal ad mission at the port of New Iork for permanent residence.” New dust storms, the worst of thf destructive series, swept over Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, New MexIeo and Texas, completing the vir tual ruin of the wheat crop and caus ing great losses and suffering among live stock* Schools and shops were closed, airplanes grounded and train and bus schedules disrupted. Some regions were being abandoned by all inhabitants. A delegation of senators and repre sentatives from four of the stricken states called on President Rooseveif and asked him to earmark $150,000,- 000 for a land program for the next two years. He did not indicate what amount would be allocated, but was said by the delegation to have given assurance that he would permit the expenditure of all the money that was necessary. RESIDENT ROOSEVELT, deeply tanned and in good physical con dition. was landed at Jacksonville, FIa., by the destroyer Farragut and started Immediately for New Tork, to attend the funeral of his cousin, Warren Delano Rob bins, after which he returned to Washing ton. Aboard his spe cial train the Presi dent read through the $4,880,000,000 work re lief bill as It was final-. Iy passed by both houses of congress, called for pen and Ink and appended his signature to the largest appropriation measure ever enacted by congress. There were some features of It, agreed upon in tbe sen ate and house conference, which be did not like, but he said those who bad studied It recommended its approval. The President at once signed two al locations from the amount appropri ated. The first was $125,000,000 to the administrator of the Federal Emer gency Relief admlnistratoin, In order that relief might not stop. The sec ond' was $30,000,000 for continuation of the emergency conservation work. In Washington the Republicans and some others discussed with dissatisfac tion the probability that Harry L. Hop kins, relief administrator, would be the President’s chief assistant in carrying out the vast work relief program. ‘It Is extremely fortunate for Mr. Hopkins that, if he is going to be the lord high distributor of the money, the bill is so drawn tbat he won't have to be confirmed by tbe senate," said Sen ator Vandenberg of Michigan. Representative Snell of New ¥ork, tbe Republican leader In the house, de clared It was “a sad commentary that a man like Hopkins,” who had termed critics of work-relief methods “d—n dumb,” should "appear to be In line to be clothed -with extraordinary grants of power over tbe greatest sum of money ever appropriated.” S I liiite Harry Hopkins IN HtS first post-vacation confer- 1 ence with congressional leaders, President Roosevelt disregarded their fears of a prolonged session and in sisted on enactment of bis legislative program. Especially he wants legisla tion dealing with extension of the NRA, social security, utilities bolding companies, extension of federal au thority over banking, ship subsidy re adjustment and extension of $416, 000,000 in nuisance taxes. Later the President conferred with Senator Joe Robinson, who said botb of them felt that’ very satisfactory progress is being made. To tbe cor respondent Mr. Roosevelt said he hoped to have the work relief program at Its peak by the middle' of November, at which time 3,500,000 unemployed should be at work under Its terms, He indicated this program would be carried out as far as possible by ex isting governmental agencies. He will seek to avoid moving workers from one' area to another, and will take care of as many “white collar” work ers as possible. The social security bill finally was produced on the Boor of the bouse of representatives^ There were several blocs against It In Its form as re ported. These Included representa tives who want higher unemployment and old age payments; members from the poorer states, who want the fed eral government to bear the entire cost of tbe program, with the states re lieved of any contribution, and the conservatives, who are opposed to the “government going into the insurance business” and exacting a pay roll tax during the depression.- RN HEUMAStN Wll.HKi.M GOB UlXii thr .l.viiiiMiU- premier e' Prussia’and nil minisier of ..Germany, and Enitny Sonnemnnn, thirty-seven year-old actress, were married In Ber lin, first In the city b«H and then m the evangelical cathedral, with Heichs fuehrer Hitler acting as groomsman in both ceremonies. It was a most spec tacular wedding, wllh many famous Germans and a grand opera cliorus in attendance, a triumphal procession through the crowded streets and a display of the Nazi air force SOCIALISTS and Catholics of Dan- O Zig combined to give Chancellor Hitler Of^ Germany his first big set back. In the free city’s parliamentary election the Nazis polled 60.6 per cent of the total vote, but failed to get the two- thirds majority of the seats that would give them complete con trol of parliament. Hitler and his follow ers bad hoped Dan zig would follow' the lead of the Saar and return to the reich, Paul Goebbels and tt,ja may yet be the result, for the population of the city Is more than 90 per cent German. But tbe Nazis were defeated in their at- iempt to lay the groundwork for the suppression of all other political par lies and the establishment of a dicta torship. Presumably their next step will be to vote for a change In the Free City’s constitution and to ask the League of Nations, which admin isters the city through a commissioner, to permit a plebiscite on return to the reich. This was openly discussed by P*ul Joseph Goebbels, German propa ganda' minister, during the hot cam paign in Danzig carried on by' the Nazis. Poland was enraged by the violent methods of tbe Hitlerites In the campaign and demanded an apol ogy from Berlin. The whole affair endangered the new friendship between Poland and Germany, and probably this was not mourned by tbe other nations of Europe. WITH tbe rubber workers In the tire plants of Akron, Ohio, ready to quit their jobs, the American Feder ation of Labor pledged Itself to finance the strike, which President Green de clared would be a crucial attempt Dy organized labor to force on Industry the collective bargaining provisions of the NRA. He announced his organi zation would “support the rubber work ers of Akron for as long a time as may be necessary.” Green definitely marked out the tire strike as a test of labor’s ability to make good on the promises held out to It by the New Deal. The national labor relations board, he pointed out, had ordered the big tire companies, Goodyear, Goodrich, and Firestone, !to allow their workers to elect represent atives for collective bargaining. The companies have refused and labor now takes Into Its own bands the enforce ment of tbe NLRB decision, Green ar gued. Tire manufacturers, on the other side, recognize the threatened strike as a key move in the New Deal pro gram for regimentation of labor and industry and are fighting back. Fire stone expected to go before the District of Columbia Supreme court and ask a permanent injunction against the NLRB and NRA meddling In Its labor situation. POSTMASTER GENERAL JAMES A. FARLEY went to New York' to study the political and legislative sit uation there, aod It was declared by local Democratic lead ers that he would re tire from the cabinet soon after the ad journment of congress. ( Mr. Farley neither af- fis p firmed nor denied the | story. He has been bitterly attacked for retaining his cabinet post and at tbe same time con tinuing as chairman of the Democratic na tional committee and of the New York Democratic commit tee, despite the edict of the President against such double holding. Mr. Roosevelt wants Mr. Farley to remain bead of the national committee and to conduct bis campaign for re-election, so he will give up his post office job; but he did not wish to resign while still under', fire from Huey Long and others. e National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart National Press Bulldlns ____________ Washington, P. C. James A. Farley OUR minister to Canada, Whrren Delano Robbins, succumbed to pneumonia In a New York hospital aft er a week’s Illness. He was a first consin of President Roosevelt and bad been in the diplomatic service for more than 25 years, being one of the most distinguished of the “career” men. Adolph S. Ochs, veteran owner and publisher of the New York Times, was stricken with cerebral hemorrhage while visiting old friends in Chatta nooga, Tenn., and died without regain ing consciousness. He was seventy- seven years old and had been in poor health for some time. Another notable man taken by death was Edwin Arlington Robinson, gen erally considered the .foremost Ameri can poet He won the Pulitzer prize for poetry In 1922, 1928 and 1928. A NNOUNCEMENT was made by * * the State department that the United States has accepted In general terms the proposal of Argentina and OhUe for co-operative efforts to end the Bolivla-Paraguay war In the Gran Ohaco. It was expected Brazil, which had been consulted, would join In the plan. Just what will be done has not been determinedT Washington.—It appears that at last all of those questions as to whether the national Indus- N R A U p to trial lecovery act is Suprem e Court constitutional are go- ing to be answered by the Supreme court of the United States. Tbat Is, they will be answered by a Supreme court decision unless the moving spirits in NBA decide, again to dodge the issue as they once have done. SomeUme ago W. E. Belcher, an Alabama lumberman, ran afoul of a national recovery administration code ruling and he was promptly prosecuted. Lower courts decided adversely to the government, however, and the NRA lawyers decided to appeal.. They want ed a* Supreme court decision. But be fore the case reached the stage of argument before the highest court In the land, the Department of Justice suddenly withdrew the petition and an nounced its refusal to prosecute Mr. Belcher any further. There immediately was set up a far- finng cry accusing the NBA and the Department of Justice of being afraid of a constitutional test. Legal brains of the Department of Justice stood pat and offered no explanation, but NEA brain trusters let it be known that they preferred to avoid a test at this time because of the imminent expira tion of the Industrial recovery act They pointed out that the law expires June 16 and that congress is now en gaged In consideration of a revision. The implication was that the NRA be lieved a test In the Belcher case was a waste of time and money because of the probability that a Supreme court decision would not be handed down until after the present law was no longer operative. , Now, however, the NRA authorities think they have found the right kind of a case for a constitutional test They have announced they will fight to have the act declared constitutional in a case In which the Schechter Live. Poultry market of Brooklyn, N. Y., is accused of violating the poultry code. So instead of trying out the constitu tional question on boards, the brain trusters are seeking a decision on the hen. The whole situation is regarded by observers as being much confused and no one seems to know exactly what is behind the sudden reversal of position on the part of NRA'and the Depart ment of Justice lawyers except a good many folks think the NRA could not stand the gaff of countrywide editorial criticism. It is true, that after aban donment of tbe Belcher case was an nounced, nearly every important met ropolitan .newspaper In the country printed editorial coinment about the action and little of it was favorable to the NRA. Examined from this viewpoint then, there are some who believe the' administration was goaded into a constitutional test of NRA. Politically, the Department of Jus tice's determination to avoid a test in the Belcher case already is having re percussions. Barbs and backbiting are coming not alone from Republican an tagonists but from among Democrats in congress as well. Senator Hastings, a Delaware Republican, and Senator Clark, a Missouri Democrat, joined In an effort to ' have Attorney General Cummings reverse his position and urged upon the head of the Depart ment of Justice the necessity for clar ification of legal questions involved. The administration’s position also has drawn fire from Republican Leader Snell in tbe house and there are in that body also certain of the so-called progressives who have charged that President Roosevelt is unwilling to face the music In the Belcher case. Economically, the decision to refrain from .pressing the Belcher case for final adjudication by the Supreme court has caused a wave of uncertain ty to permeate the business structure. Wbat the end is going to be, even Donald Rlchberg, number one man In NRA, has avoided saying. Since be has not enunciated policies his subor dinates are afraid to move. - Conse quently, according to some of the let ters now going out from the NRA to business interests, the whole question of codes and their enforcement frankly can be said to be up In Qie air.* • » If the NBA can be said to be up In the air, the agricultural adjustment ad- . ministration can be A A A in said to be a rudder- Trouble loss ship. There Is no longer any doubt that AAA policy is confused, not to say floun dering about In helpless fashion. It has reached the stage where delega tions -ana individuals are arriving in increasing numbers to wait-:on the doorstep of Secretary WaUace - and Administrator Davis- for advice as to what the program Is. It ought to be said just here Uiat Mr. WaUace and Mr. DavIs are stow ing signs of irritation and that is al ways significant It. was only the other day that a group of farm organization leaders came In to Washington to tell Mn Wallace how the Department of Agriculture mast do something to en able fanners in the areas that were drouth stricken to plant crops. They pointed out the necessity for quick ac- because crops must be planted wiUiln the next few weeks. They did hot «top there, however, but added FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS There is no mystery la bus, Success.

Rockefeller. 5"'~ M points .of criticism about AAA policy. This so irked Mr. Wallace that he an nounced abruptly that the interview was- dosed. The secretary was quoted by mem bers of the delegation as having in quired whether the Roosevelt adminis tration had not done more for farmers than any previous administration. He was reported also to have said he did not Uke the attitude or.tbe spirit which the visitors displayed In their conver sations with him. The result was that the farm leaders went away from the vast building housing the Department of Agriculture with a decidedly bad taste In their mouths and the predic tion Is heard frequently now that these men win cause much trouble for Mr. WaUace hereafter by telling their sto ries among the home folks. I think It is generaUy conceded that economical _ and political numskulls may be found In positions of responsi bility among farm organizations but after all they serve as something of a leadership for groups that speak for agriculture and when Mr. WaUace be comes angered by their criticism of his administration, serious trouble for him Ues not so far ahead. Such circum stances as the one just mentioned usu ally are accepted as indicating a thin skin on the part of a public official and that condition is nearly always fatal— it ruined Herbert Hoover.• * * Around the halls of congress, also, there is increasing criticism, of Mr. Wallace and it is of Criticise a character to under- W allace mine him if It con tinues. When such stalwart Democrats as Senator George of Georgia describes a cabinet officer as being unfit.for the office he holds, the situation as regards that individual necessarily becomes precarious. The controversies that are centering around Secretary Wallace naturally are having their reaction on his legis lative proposals. It Is my understand ing that considerable difficulty is faced by the amendments to the adjustment act which" the secretary desires to have passed at this session of congress. These amendments are described by the secretary as being designed to strengthen the adjustment act and ac cord the AAA more power In enforce ment It seems, however, , a certain bloc In congress holds the . conviction that there is already-sufficient power In Mr. Wallace’s hands and-tho.se mem bers’ are . growing . resentful ■' toward, proposals delegating, more authority to him.. The recent house-cleaning which re sulted in eUmination of certain of the brain trusters In the Department of Agriculture and its stepchild, the AAA, bad a wholesome effect on relation ship between the Department of Agri culture and congress as a whole, yet in some quarters it appears, the house- cleaning did not remove all of the stigma with which oppositionists have stained the administration's farm poU- cies. With reference to the house-clean ing, it should be said just here that ■another move Is In the making. Prof. Rexford Guy TugweU1 the present un dersecretary of agriculture, Is slated to be dehorned insofar .as farm recov ery policies are concerned. When Pres ident Roosevelt gets his bands on the five billion voted In the public works relief bill. Professor Tugwell wUl be given charge of something like nine hundred millions to spend In a way that is variously described as “scien tific.” His job will be to sort out lands that are productive from those that are mediocre or without value at all In agriculture and to find uses for those which should not be used as farm lands.• • * I believe It Is not too. much to say that conditions In the NRA and AAA tt ,,have -added to the H oneym oon general uncertainty /« Ended concerning the polit ical and economic outlook of the administration. In this connection it should be mentioned that the Republicans are showing signs of life. Por Instance, Republican Leader Snell took a shot at President Roose velt the other day that Indicates a forthcoming deluge of criticism of him personally for the first time since he entered the White House. The volume of mall being received on Capitol Hill tells Its story as well. Members of the house and senate are beginning to inquire of each .other what their political coarse should be to view of the type of inquiries that are now being received. Through many months, the personal chann of the President has seemed to prevent expressions of a critical na ture and certainly has held off com plaints from the business section of the country. Certainly those who have money invested were not being told about future plans. It seems now, how ever, that the "honeyinooh" for which Mt. Roosevelt asked has ended and that henceforth it will be a of realities. The most direct attack upon the President and upon Oie New Oeal.came from- BepresentaiQve Jaues Wads worth, a New York Republican.

REYNOtOS TOBACCO CD MPflN V WINSTON-SAtEM, N.C. No Alibi For Confisca tory Taxes. The best wav to measure the bur den of taxation is to relate it to the national income. The amount of tax the nation pays is principally im portant in the light of the money we have out of which to do the paying. In 1923, tne national income was over $69,000 OOO OOOi and taxes took $7,200,000,000—10 percent. During ensuing years, that percentage was relatively constant, and in our peak income year, 1929. cost of govern, ment absorbed but 11 8 per cent of. our income, In 1930, our income dropped to $70,000,000,000, from the high of $83,000,000,000 established the year before, while taxes rose and took 14 6 per cent of all the money we earned. In 1932, taxes took 20.7 per cent." Conclusive figures for the years since are .not available—but best opinion holds that government costs amount to. more than 25 per cent of the national income. Wbat this means, is that govern ment has ntterly failed in adjusting its finance to fit/current economic conditions. Eyery • business and every individual has had to-do that during depression—they have prun ed budgets, cut out luxuries, and made'income and outgo balance. Government has continued to spend more and more—and the results are found in industrial stagnation, increasing unemployment, delayed re covery. It is i rue that government must make certain extraordinary expendi tures in bad times, in order to aid the unfortunate. But a -small proportion of total governmental costs is used for such purposes—and “re- Hire’s Your Sale Tax. This is an explanation on the- sales tax: ’ . _ A sales tax puts the heaviest burden on the one least able to bear it,'.- By way of. illustration: -Here • is a bachelor; he has one Jnonth to feed, his own. Here is a widow with five children; she has six mouths to feed, her own and five others. The sales tax plan pro poses to let the burden rest'six tunes as heavily on the widow as it does on the bachelor.—Southern Farmer.;.
