(.Tom Linder, Atlanta, Georgia) T hew heatfarm ers of the west rented land to the government and went into the business of not raising wheat.. Now, they find themselves under the necessity ot buying seed wheat to plant, to say npthing ot hairing to buy wheat to eat. Mr' Wallace had to take the tax off of wheat coming into the United States in or der to keep the wheat farmer from getting hungry for bread. The hog farmers went into the business of not raising hogs. Now hog meat is a luxury. For the first time since the middle age, wheq English noblemen roasted pigs while the common serfs were not permitted to eat pigs, has hog meat become the diet of the rich only. The farmers of .the south went into the business of not raising cot ton. The government pegged the price at twelve cents in money that was worth fifty-nine cents to the dollar. Mussolini has challenged- Great Britian’s right to be the only, op pressor of foreign countries. This means war. Cotton is an absolute necessity to warring nations—they, cannot kill people fast enough without cotton to make explosives. An unlimited market for Ameri can cotton is at hand, but where is the cotton? The farmer as usual will have to grow a crop with; high priced supplies before he has any to sell, ' ■ At present, the little farmer must pay thegovernm ent a tax of thirty- dollars per bale so that the govern ment can pay theiarm er not to raise more cotton.

' Women bad better be more re strained and backward iu messing around the bottle, than men. They are not built to stand up under the rigors of its terrific beating.

In one .of the public papers of a distinguished president of a genera tion ago, Grover' Cleveland', may be found this pithy saying,- which has in-it for-thought: .' Though the people: support the government,-should not support, the people.

As to the mill u Iages we could neyef.^see any argument against them-when the houses were decent to live n. ~ In some instances, we wil! admit, in the years past, the mill houses in some instances were a dis grace and people ,should not have been corrpelled to live in them.

In the' recent liquor election in Franklin county,' Youngaville. went dry by a heavy m ajority, but the county as a whole' voted for liquor 9tores by 500 majority. Youngsville is near Wake Forest, and the wets are determined it seems to establish 0 liquor store there in order to contaminate the college boys if possible. Youngsville dry backed by the Wake Forest college authori ties will strongly resist the establish ment of a county bar room in that town but tbe-wecs take the position that,the county is a unit and a store can be established in. Youngsville ac cording to law. . And thus the wet crowd continue to'drive nails in their own coffin but are tob blind to see it- Tribunal’s Peril Is Seen Danger to People’s Liberties.

Jost why the price of applies should be raised we don’t know, considerating the fact that they are now selling for 30 cents per dozen, which is beyond the reach of the poor working man. Seems to us that staple groceries, instead of perishabies, should be; dispensed to the needy.

The political pot will soon begin to boil in Davie county. Rnmor has it that there will be several Re publicans in the race for the various county offices. B C. Brock is a can dldate for the State Senate in this district, which is composed of Davie, Yadkin and Wilkes counties. Just who will be in the race for the legis lature is not known. Several gen* tletnen have been mentioned for representative, among them beiag L. L- Smith, of Advance, R. 1; J. H . Swing, of Pino; Brewster Grant a Jaw student and son of Attorney A. T Grant, who represented Davie in both House and Senate for many years. Either of the above named men would be acceptable to the big majority of the Republicans in the county, we believe. Clerk of the Court Hartman can take things easy this year, as he still has two more years to serve.

UTLEY Ajj ENTIRE new era of permanent peace and “gpod-neigh- borHfiess” may be opened up between the countries on the two American continents when and if the senate ratifies the „ew treaty between the United States and the Republic of i Panama which was signed in March. Old diii"rcnces which have existed between America and her • t iian iioichbor for a third of a century have been ironed out to at extent by the new pact.

The attitude of Panama, as well as I that of several other Latin-American States was ready to loosen a IitUe cam e in October, 1933, when president Roosevelt and President Arias of Pan ama conversed in W ashington. It was there that the plans were laid for the new treaty, which is characteristic of the adm inistration’s policy of lib eral treaties and free trade. The exact term s of the new pact have never been released to the newspa pers, but it is known that the theme underlying the entire document is the renunciation of the misconception that Panam a is a protectorate of the Um'ted States. Points of Accord. Actually, the changes brought about by the new treaty will be paper ones, largely, with the exceptions of an agreem ent to construct a new highway across the isthm us and of certain com mercial concessions b y 1 the United States. Should the tim e ever come when Panam a’s independence needed protection the Job would more than likely fall to Uncle Sam for Panama has no army, merely a police force trained by American officers. ■ !■ !B ill ”Sb' .v .I v A The U.

The Roosevelt adm inistra tion evidently feels this attitude is justified, it appears from the pro visions of the new treaty. Three points, particularly, have al ways been sore spots in the relations of the United States and Panama. They grew out of the agreem ent of fS03, under which the United States constructed the Panama canal, andthey are: bur right to intervene when neces- sary to preserve the peace in Panarha, our exercise of the right of eminent n in acquiring auxiliary lands, and our guarantee of Panama’s inde pendence.

The accord reached In 1933, and which it Is rea sonable to suppose is contained in the treaty, embodies the following chief points; The United States will use, occupy and control the Canal zone only for President Roosevelt Meets President Arias. the purpose of m aintenance, operation, sanitation and protection of the cana . Panam a is recognized as the sov ereign nation, and as such is entitled to enjoy w hatever commercial ad vantages its Juxtaposition With the canal shall bring it, provided that these do not prejudice the purposes of the operation of the canal zone by the United States. Economic questions which do not in any way affect those purpose® ‘tthey cannot be solved through direet negotiation, be subm itted to arb.tra “ The original treaty held that while Panam a was the sovereign nation, the United States was to have Jurlsdic- JlorJ over the ten-mile-wide strip that e Canal Zoaet and would possess and exercise all rights Just as It ould “if It were the sovereign of the Dr. Alfredo J. Alfaro, Panam anian M inister. territory.” The confusion arising from this clause is not hard to understand. For many years Panam anians have felt that it gave the United States sovereign pow er; and In the Pan- American conference at H avana in 1928 the Panam anian delegate, Dr. Al fredo J. Alfaro, strenuously objected when It was intim ated that this w as the truth. It was he who signed the new treaty for Panam a, where he ex pects to run for president in 1937. U. S. M ust Buy Land. Under the old treaty the United States could acquire by right of emi nent domain lands and w aters outside the Canal Zone “which may be neces-, sary and convenient for the construc-i tion, maintenance, operation, sanita-j tion and protection” of the canal. Technically, of course, this could have been regarded as giving the United States the right to take over any terri tory in the isthm ian republic. Such a "llen'- could hardly allow the nation, a clear title to its own property, and certainly would have made territorial agreem ents w ith other nations embar rassing. The new arrangem ent takes away the United States- right to ac quire territory by condemnation, but gives Uncle Sam the right to acquire it by purchaser At present the Panam anian city of Colon is separated from the rest of the republic by the Canal Zone, but the new treaty provides, a corridor of connection across the. zone. By the treaty of 1903, the Panam a Railway company, whose shares are owned entirely by the United States government, w as given the sole right of communication across the Isthmus. Panam itself was forbidden to build an automobile highway to cover the 47 miles from Panam a City to Colon; under the new treaty, such a highway will be constructed. The railw ay company has been op erating commissaries along its right of w ay; these were originally intended to serve • only American employees, but Panam a m erchants claim the commis saries have been doing a thriving tour ist business and w ant the business themselves. Now they will get it. Term inate Gold Paym ent. Now that the American dollar has been devalued, the treaty will allow the United States to make its annual paym ents to Panam a in balboas, the Panam anian unit of currency, instead of in gold coins. The 430,000 balboas which constitute the annual payment are worth a little more than the $250,- 000 in gold formerly paid every year. To date it has not become known w hat the United States army and navy think of the new pact, but this will come out when it is placed before the senate for ratification. It can be con strued as weakening American control over the canal, and for th at reason may fail to make the grade. The Navy departm ent, undpr the new agreem ent, already has turned over two radio stations to the Panam a gov ernm ent, and new agreem ents for the regulation of radio 1 communication have been reached. M ay Remove Custom s Collector. The United States still m aintains a collector of customs In the Dominican republic, to assure that the Dominican debt to this country is properly serv iced. This officer is something of an irritation to the citizens there. W hen the conference of American nations gets under way this summer, there is little likelihood that the pur poses of preserving the peace will be chrried so far as to establish a “league of nations" for the western hemis phere. W hat Is more likely is a joint treaty which all nations can rely on to aid settlem ent of disputes. Any agency so created would prob ably be given the right to investigate •the causes of disputes, to try to effect conciliations and, if necessary, to sit as a board of arbitration. It is Im probable that any real instrum ent, such as sanctions, for enforcing de cisions will be agreed upon. © .Western New-spaperUnlcra. IMPROVED' UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY H CHOOLLesson By RSV. P. B. FITZWATER. 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 S JESUS INVITES ALL PEOPLE LESSON TEXT—Luke 14:15-24. GOLDEN TEXT—Come; for aU things are now ready.—Luke 14:17. PRIMARY TOPIC—How Jesus Kept the - Sabbath. JUNIOR TOPIC—A Great Invitation. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Excuses W e Make. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Our Response to Christ’s Invitation. In this chapter Luke pictures Jesus freely mingling with his fellowmen in worship and social intercourse. While thus freely mingling with his fellow men, he was aw are of their inner hos tility to him and set forth under the parable of the great supper the sluful folly of men who reject his gracious offer of salvation. 1. The G reat Supper (v. 16). This great supper represents God’s gracious provision of salvation through the vicarious atonement of Jesus Christ. Christ himself declared that he was the bread of life. As bread is to the physical body, so Is Jesus Christ to the soul. It is called a supper be cause it is the last meal of the day. Jesus Christ’s sacrificial death is God’s last effort for the salvation of men. The one who misses supper goes hun gry through the night; the one who neglects and rejects the gracious offer of salvation In Jesus Christ shall for ever perish. It is a great supper be cause its provision was made in the counsels of the eternal Godhead. It w as wrought out by the Son of God and avails for the salvation of all races and kindred and tongues. There is no one whose sinful condition de bars him from this precious feast II. The Gracious and Urgent Invita tion (vv. 16, 17). These words, “Come; for all things are now ready,” reveal the attitude of God toward a sinning rhce. Truly it is not the will of God that any should perish, but that all should come to re pentance. H is servants have been go ing up and down the world for thou sands of years saying to men dead in trespasses and sins, perishing for w ant of the bread of life, “Come; for ail things are now ready.” God is never behind time. There is absolutely noth ing lacking in his provision for needy souls. The only thing demanded, of the hungry aDd dying world is that it accept his urgent invitation. Man’s responsibility is to receive Jesus ClJciIf. All who accept his invitation- are'assured of a welcome at his table. III. Men’s A ttitude Toward God’s Gracious Invitation (vv. 18-26). “They all with one accord began to make excuse.” They feigned a willing ness to come, but their excuses showed that they were completely absorbed In selfish interests and, therefore, disre garded the invitation of the divine Host. This is a vivid picture of the reception which men are everywhere giving the gospel. L The first one was taken up with the buying of land. On this account he begged to be excused. Supper time is a poor time to go to see a piece of ground. Besides, he had already bought the ground and, therefore, he w as under no necessity of going to see it at supper time. 2. The second man desired to be ex cused In order that he m ight test a yoke of oxen which he had bought. Supper time is not a proper tim e to test oxen. Then, too, he had already bought them ; therefore, there was no urgency In testing them. 3. The third excuse was perhaps the flimsiest of all. In all probability his wife would have been glad to accom pany him. It is to be noted th at.th e excuses made are plausible, as they concern things that are right in them selves. It is right for a man to have land, have oxen, and live with a wife, but when these legitim ate interests crowd out God and the things of the Spirit, they are to be ignored. IV. Guests From the Highways and Hedges (vv. 21-24). 1. The anger of the m aster of the house (v. 21). It should not be for gotten that God, while great in mercy, is capable of anger toward those who reject his mercy. It is a great mistake to remove anger from the character of God. To reject his mercy exposes to his fierce anger. 2. The Lord’s house filled (vv. 21- 23). The places of the very ones who were first bidden were filled with other guests, some of them poor and helpless, from the lanes and streets of the city and others the vagrants from the high ways. 3. The aw ful condition of those first -bidden (v. 24). T h e . m aster of the house declares that none of. them shall taste of his supper. Since the supper represents the free grace and mercy Of Jesus Christ, to refuse him is to be eternally deprived of the high privilege of sitting at the M aster’s table. W hy W e A re Lonely Loneliness ts often our own fault. We have not brought others enough into our own life, Or we have repelled- others by making too many claims up: on them, or by seeking too much sym pathy for ourselves.—Stopford A. Brooke. G oodness - As the presence of salt Is not so noticeable as its absence, so the good are most appreciated when they are gone* ' - Let Age and Youth Agree to / Differ: A Form of Agreement C o n c l u s io n o f S a g e o n t h e P r o b l e m o f L i f e ’s C o n t r a s t s . One ot the m ost serious of life’s contrasts is the continual m isunder standing which arises between old age and yquth. It is trite but true that from tim e immemorial age has been dissatisfied w ith youth and youth has resented the im plication Though we ourselves had no such tem ptations as beset the young people of today, nevertheless our parents w ere ju st as anxious about our doings as any parent now could be. To us, tIfEir children, the prob lems of this perplexing day seem In tricate in comparison. I{. L. S. thought it out In this fashion: Let them (age and youth) agree to differ, for who knows but w hat agreeing to differ m ay not be a form of agree ment, rather than a form of differ ence? Lady glane, In her attem pt to live her own life after fifty years of be ing a satellite In the wake of a dis tinguished husband, is criticized by some as devoid of m aternal love in wishing to jive apart from her fam ily. B ut is not life in most fam ilies a proof of the saying that a prophet is not w ithout honor save in his own country? The desire to explore one’s individual country becomes rather im portant as life recedes with all passions spent. So much is now being w ritten about flaming youth that it w ill soon believe th at the whole stage of life was m eant for the presentation of its own play and the footlights sole Iy to exhibit its own charm s. Well, so be it, since upon its shoulders m ust fall the work of the world. Sir Edm und Gosse in w riting his “Fa ther and Son,” endured severe criti cism because he said too much (later, because he said too little) In trying to present the influence of a strictly puritanical father upon a son whose attitude tow ard life had changed. Stevenson’s comment upon the book helped to smooth over the harshness of such criticism w hen he A fte r F irs t L o o k , D u m b -b ell L o n g ed to L o o k fo r L ife It is true th at once in a while, a t a dinner, for instance, a woman is put next to a m an who stolidly stares a t his plate and answ ers “yes” or “no” to everything she says, W rltesvEm ily P ost:.in.the New York H eftild Tribune. " I rem em ber one occasion when a certain very attractive young wom an struggled throughout the soup course and the fish course and half w ay through the m eat course w ith out getting so much as a glance In her direction. Finally she Said firm ly : “W ill you please turn your head and look a t me?” H e turned a face that-w as quite blank unless slightly raised eyebrows m eant a glimmer of inquiry. “I w ant to be sure you know,” said she, “th at I’ve tried my best to talk to you, and now I’m going to try Ro more.” W hereupon she turned to the m an on th e other side. T he end of this Incident sounds like fiction, but I voudh for its truth. She is now the wife of the first man. said that it was a very delicate task, very delicately done. Published In 1907, it was, to use the author’s words, a record of a struggle be tw een two tem peram ents, two con sciences, and alm ost two epochs. It seems to me that Mr. Brownell In his “Standards,” has found the keynote to the lack of harmony be tween the two generations when he says th at youth fails to consider how much more crowded the pigeon holes of age are than its own, and how much more irksome it is to ar range their contents, and that, in conjunction with the proverbial egotism of youth, is the whole cause of the difficulties that arise. A case In point is the talk between the aged Belarius and the two sous of Cymbeline before they learn of their princely heritage. B elarius tells a t length about the charm s of moun tain life in Wales, adding that it is nobler than attending for a check, richer than doifag nothing for a bau ble, prouder than rustling In unpaid silk. They listen respectfully and reply: H aply this life is best If quiet life _be best, sw eeter to you That have a sharper known, w ell cor- - responding W ith your stiff age; but unto ua it Ia A cell of ignorance, traveling abed.

W estern Europe may have a problem closer at hand than Japan. Our B ritish cousins In the Revolu tion cheerfully let loose howling, scalp ing Indians on their" cousins in the American colonies, and bolshevism might cheerfully turn Asiatic killing ef ficiency against western “capitalism.” You remember how cheerfully the great historian Gibbon predicted that, In the American war, “with firmness all may go well,” because “Scotch High landers, Irish, Hanoverians. Canadians, Indians, etc., will all In various shapes be employed.” There is no reason w hy Russia of 1936 should be more squeamish now than England a t the end of the Eight eenth century. Lloyd George, who ought to know about Europe and w ar since he and old Clemenceau won the big war, "tells Universal Service this present w ar is “off,” France having learned that “even h er most ardent friends in Europe shrink from war.” Lloyd George declares that peace •^without derogating from the dignity of any of the powers” will be pre served, if France does not make tt impossible. Lloyd George says not I per cent of Englishmen would vote for war, and not 10 per cent for employing sanctions against Germany. If enough rich Americans go to Eng land to “escape kidnapers” the kid napers may move over after them, as professional gamblers follow on big ships. London police arrested Alfred Molyneux, thirty-one, trying to extort $1,000 from the Countess Barbara H utton Haugwitz-Reventlow, offering to reveal a plot to kidnap her baby. Police knew by the moderate price it could not be an American “snatcher” or confederate. Easily caught, the young man confessed he had invented the plot. W ith “visibility cut to zero,” street lights burning by day, not visible across the street, dust storm s are blow ing over parts of Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado and New Mexico. By such displays of nature's power, for which man’s foolishness is respon sible, fertile areas of the world have been changed to deserts.

C T A T E S of the Central E ast and New England suffered, severelyfrom the alm ost unprecedented floods. Scores of lives were lost and the vast prop erty damage cannot yet be estim ated. At least 150,000 persons were made homeless. Conditions •’were w orst in w estern Pennsylvania. The Mononga- hela and Allegheny rivers, uniting at Pittsburgh to form the Ohio, poured raging torrents down over the great industrial city, driving the people from their homes and places of business. The famous “Golden Triangle” between the rivers was completely inundated; transportation and communication sys tem s were suspended and power plants were put out of commission so the city was plunged In darkness. The plight of the suburbs was equally bad. F arther east, Johnstown was en tirely flooded and the terror-stricken inhabitants fled from their homes, but the great Quemahoning dam was hold ing and the danger of a repetition of the disaster of 1889 seemed to be pass ing. Dozens of cities and towns along the Susquehanna and Its tributaries were under w ater, and in New York the Mohawk, Hudson, Schuylkill and Delaw are rivers w ere out of their banks and rapidly rising. The Potomac, too, became a raging flood and in W ashington an arm y of men w as work ing feverishly to save.the buildings an d ' monuments In the flatlands. Ten thousand persons were rendered homeless in the New England states and about a score lost their lives. The emergency there w as greatest in the valley of the Connecticut river. Many cities w ere cut off from rail transpor tation and also w ere w ithout light and power. American Red Cross rose to the emergency, as always, mobilizing its forces to relieve the suffering. Admiral Cary T. Grayson, its national head, is sued an appeal for a fund of $3,000,000. President Rooseveit also called for this am ount In a. proclam ation. Sec retary of W ar- Dern was appointed emergency flood relief head by the President and immediately ordered the generals commanding six corps areas of the arm y to extend full aid for prevention of loss of life and de struction of property. W ork Relief A dm inistrator H arry Hopkins gave blanket authority to all WPA officials .to employ their workers in any way necessary in rescue work and In strengthening levees.

To prevent robbery and vandalism N a tional Guardsmen were on the job at Pittsburgh and other places. Joachim von Ribbentrop GERMANY was forced to denounce the Locarno pact because the Franco-RussiaD m utual assistance treaty was directed only against the reicb and ranged 275,000,- 000 people against it. T hat is w hat Joachim von Ribbentrop, H it ler’s adviser on for eign affairs, told the council of the League of Nations when It m et in London to pass' on . the com plaint of France and Belgium that Germany bad vio lated both the Locarno pact and the Versailles treaty by rem ilitariz ing the Rhineland. Nevertheless, the council by ,unani-' mous vote condemned Germany- as a violator of both treaties. How she shall be punished, if at all, remained to be determined. France and all her allies wanted the imposition of sanc tions ; Italy could not be brought to favor that, being herself subjected to such penalties; G reat Britain, striving to preserve the peace, sought some middle way out' of the dilemma. Representatives of Britain, France, Belgium aDd Italy devised a plan which provides for a conference of world na tions to draft economic, disarm am ent, and security plans. This plan also pro vides that Geimany,- in .the meantime, would agree not to fortify the Rhine land and, pending a new agreem ent with Germany, B ritain would guar antee France’s security. The French especially liked this be cause It amounted to a m ilitary de fensive alliance with Britain, but they did not believe it would be accepted by Germany. Von Ribbentrop, accompanied by an imposing lot of experts and secretaries, was sent by H itler at the request of the council. The feichsfuehrer had consented to be represented after British .Foreign Secretary Eden as sured him be would do his best- to per suade France and Belgium to consider H itler's new security plans after Ger many bad been formally condemned for its action in the Rhineland. In his address before the council Vou Uiblientrop' emphatically asserted that 'France by approaching soviet Rus sia In concluding “what really was a military alliance,” did not respect the Locarno treaty. And . the SSoviet- Czechoslorukian agreem ent also, he declared, constituted a further danger to the relCh. France’s proposal to subm it the France-Russian. treaty to The .H aguo court'w as said by a spokesm an for the German delegation to be futile and useless. H e also said the plan sug gested by the English, to police the Rhineland zone with an international force, was “absolutely unacceptable." A third provision, for draw ing up a system of m utual guaranties among the Locarno powers, to operate in case of an attack, the spokesman said, was “unnecessary because Germany has no Intention Cf crossing her frontiers.’' None of the Germans, however, even intim ated that H itler would w ithdraw any of his troops from the Rhineland ■ H itler was continuing his speech- making tour in Germany. A t Koenigs- berg he said: 1 “F or once a single m an comes forth in Europe behind wjioni,stands a whole nation. He extends his hand to othei nations. W hoever dares reject this my hand, behind which 69,000,000 peo ple are united, m ust bear responsibility In the eyes of history.

Senator Black w ithdrew the subpoena on the W estern Union company in the H earst case, but first made public w hat purported to be a copy of a telegram from the pub lisher to one of his editorial w riters In which McSwain w as called “a Com munist In spirit and, a traitor in ef fect.” McSwaln promptly read this in the house and then vigorously and elo quently defended him self and de nounced H earst. The publisher retorted w ith an open letter to his editorial w riter in which he said : “McSwain is a politician of the low er order, and his extrem e radical pac ificism is a .danger to . the peace and protection of the nation, and to tbe safety of tbe men, women and chil dren who constitute the American people.” OXE and one-half billion dollars will be needed to -carry the.

As an off shoot of this controversy, the federal com m unications commission is In wa te r much too hot for bathing and it begins to appear th at when the steam blow s off the com m unications com m ission is likely to be a thoroughly discredited federal agency because of th e p art It played In Senator Black’s unprecedented seizure.of private tele gram s from the W estern Union and Postal Telegraph companies. Speaking generally, it has been sel dom th a t a U nited States senator has ever attem pted to assert the authority th a t Senator B lack has used and it is equaUy unprecedented th a t a .federal agency has gone to the extrem es that characterized the action of the com m unications commission In connection w ith tbe $eizure of the messages. B ut some good m ay come from the police court prosecution tactics em ployed by Senator B lack and some good m ay come from the accusations leveled a t the com m unications com mission because th a t body helped Sen ato r B lack carry out .his plans. The country-w ide , indignation that has arisen from Senator Black’s usur pation of pow er has brought to the front a question th at needs public at tention and needs It badly. I refer, in this connection, to the steadily expanding efforts of congres sional investigators, especially sena torial Investigators, to take over, as th eir own,, pow ers th a t alw ays have been regarded a s reserved exclusively to the courts. The consensus among W ashington observers certainly is that th e legislative inquiries have devel oped to a point w here the m ost hnm- ; b le , requirem ents: of -Justice have, been and are being completely Ignored. W hether they a re so intended, these inquiries, and this includes investiga tions conducted by com m ittees not only of congress but of state legisla tors and .even city councils, are ap proaching the point w here they are al m ost tyrannical. It goes w ithout saying, then, th at the tim e has arrived for citizens to as sert them selves. These inquiries will not proceed when the elected legisla tors, state, o r national, learn that the people do not approve of such high handed tactics. » • * In order to have an understanding of the latest of these escapades, it is , , necessary to review D la clt s briefly w hat has bap- Aetivities pened In the case of tbe senate lobby in vestigating committee, A lm ost a year ago the com m ittee sought the aid of th e federal com m unications commis sion which had tbe color of authority in law for investigating the business of the telegraph companies. Senator B lack issued a broad subpoena, direct ing the telegraph com panies to m ake available any and- all messages his com m ittee desired. Communications commission agents then w ent into the telegraph company files, read every thing they could find and m ade copies of all of tbe messages which those agents, under guidance of Black in vestigators, thought would be helpful to the Black com m ittee In exposing operations of private Individuals. The purpose of this, as outlined by Senator Black; w hs to locate Clues to th e m achinations of business Interests who w ere seeking passage or defeat fo r legislation pending In congress. T he A labam a senator w anted to “show up” lobbyists. H e contended and has m aintained consistently that “these m alefactors of great w ealth” could not accomplish any influence In congress unless it were done secretly and “in th e dark.” In other Words11Senator Black per suaded members of the communications commission to help him In his fishing expedition. He persuaded that organ- ization .that- It’ should- become a party to an unrecedented effort designed as a dragnet, a movement to sntear any body and everybody w ho had used, tele-graphic service. -5 .The Black plan w as carried out In sec re t Senders and receivers of mes: S n Wh nh ‘b?Se a8ents coPied knew nothing about t The operation was £ f « uch ln tbe. darB” as any of the lobbying about which Senator Black complained, even more so tt by a^ewent tbat ..the ,facts became known but when they did fib- come known, the lid., was blown off.

MOCKSVILtE. R C. APttlL 1,193« • M ethodists T o M eet Salisbury. Government E x t r a v a g m i c e I s Burden on E v e r y Household. One of tbe most fam iliar exam ples af that group of citizens who laugh at hidden taxes Is the care-free motor ist If government spending breaks «11 peace-time records, sending deficits •ud public debts to new high m arks, tbe car driver still hugs th e com fort able delusion that somebody else Is paying the fiddler. “I pay no Income tax” says he, “and own no stocks or real estate. Taxes mean nothing to me.” That motorist may be astonished to learn from the federal governm ent records that he and his fellow car- owners paid 526,025,950 to federal tax collectors during the first m onth of the present year. These Internal rev, enue collections on cars, fuel, acces sories, etc., were substantially less In tbe preceding January, the figure for that month being $20,623,837, Increasing government expenditures mean new and bigger tax collections. Gasoline Is one of the cheapest com modities on the m arket today, but It also Is one of tbe most heavily taxed. Out of the $26,025,950 collected In taxes from bigbway-users In January il4,OOS,5St was for gasoline The following table shows how the car-ovvner’s large share of Internal rev- tnue taxes Is divided. The figures are grouped by the American Petroleum Institute from the tables of the 0 . S. Bureau of Internal. R evenue Following are the January collec tlous: Commodity Taxed J a n , 193« Gasoline ........*..............................$14,008,684 Lubricating oil 1,981,240 pipe tine oil shipm ents . . . . . .

Manufacturers of cars and acces series and handlers of gasoline and oil, for the most part, pass the taxes on to the Individual car owner. In addition to these burdens the car own er, of course, has to pay State gaso line taxes and pay for registration lees. State taxes for gasoline In. 1935 hare been estimated at $636,000,1)00 The average car owner pays annually abnut 530 In taxes, most of which an- hidden. It an average Is taken of gasoline prices and taxe3 In all States it will be found that each motorist pays a 40 cent tax on every dollar’s worth ol gasoline he buys. Baird R. Markham director of the Petroleum Industries Committee, recently said: “There Is a tendency on the part of motorists In protest a 1-cent increase In the price of gasoline while the majority of them continue to overlook a gasoline tax which is the equivalent of a shales tax of 40 per cent on the retail price.” The burden of taxes is Increasing. The remedy Is In reduced governmen tal extravagant spending, and In the realization of every man that be does have a real, and personal Interest In the cutting out of wasting of billions by his government That Is why the national annual budget vitality ami directly affects the home -budget In every household In the land. At a meeting of a committee named at the last conference to select a Jocation for the annual meeting of the 1 Western North Carolina Conference to be held in October, held in Concord, the First Methodist church, Salis bury, was selected as the meeting place of the body. _ Members of the committee made an unusual choice in selecting Salis bury which was also the meeting place of the 1935 session and this is the first time in the history of the conference that it has met in the same place twice in succession. Salisbury Methodists and citizens generally were so well pleased with the 1935 gathering which in turn reciprocated the feeling that it was decided to meet in the Rowan capi tal again this year. The referee has concluded that Kid Winter wins by a techhicaie knockout. ' . President’s Philosopher on Centralized Power President Roosevelt In his speech to congress on January 3 quoted from “the w ords of a wise philosopher a t whose, feet I sat many, many years ago." T he President did not nam e the philosopher but the latter’s Identity w as later revealed. He w as the late JosIah Royce of H arvard university. The w ords quoted by’ Mr. Roosevelt w ere from Professor Royce’s book en titled “The Philosophy of Loyalty.” In a passage not quoted by the President the author said: ■ “The present tendency -to the cen tralization of pow er in our national governm ent seem s , to me, then, a dis; tinct danger. It is a substitution of pow er for loyalty:” Business Deals Retarded i by Paternalism and Taxes There have been frequent stale Jnents from business leaders explain lug that business expansion and em phiymect have been retarded by uncer tainty as to how far the federal gov ernment has gone, or may go. into competition with private business- An other fear expressed was as'to the effect on business of various Items of legislation particularly with relation to taxes. ~ The following paragraph from a pur- chasing order by a large western con racting tirIn shows how these- uncer a*Rtles operate on the every-day bust* “css transaction 1 Seller agrees to Indemnify and save uyer harmless, and to assume full fesponsibility for payment of all state Jnd federal taxes- for. unemployment nsurance, old age pensions, or any other social security legislation as to “ i employees engaged In the perrorm- anee of this contract, and further SFees to meet all requirements that oy be specified In regulations now or uereafter promulgated from time to “hie by administrative ofildals.” The seller was required thereby to assume a variety of obligations that met Iy were unheard of In business "ansactlonO.

CHAPTER XI—Continued — I i —BJuejay’s one foot Iiad been string ing idly. On Youngs appearance the arc it ms de diminished. More and more slowly it swung until it came to rest and during that interval the man's Jaw sagged. He sat so, gaping, unniovin?,.and then his chair came down to all four legs with a thud while the heritage of the Indian in him, all the superstition and regard for legend, swirled upward to possess him completely. Ko one else Iiad noticed this; did not until Young spoke, easily-enough: “Surprised. B luejayr 1 He laughed, then, and the laughter was hard, menacing laughter. Slowly. Bluejay rose to his feet, bands beliind him, shoving on the chair Jiack to aid his weakened leg muscles. A luminous fear danced in the black eyes. “Surprised, eh?” Kerry began to ad- ■ranee. “That’s what I came for, Blue- jay, to see who'ti be surprised!” The man was retreating, now, hands spread against the wall, sidling along, making for the rear. He did not speak, though his lips worked. Kerry moved faster and as the 'breed turned, left off his touch on the painted boards and, half staggering, lurciied down the room, was upon him, “!d id n 't” Bluejaygasped as Young’s hand fastened on his shirt at the shoul der, spinning him around. "I . . . I didn’ . . he moaned. “Didn’t w hat?” K erry’s voice was Bke the crack of a whip. “D idn't what?" —insistently when no reply was forth coming. “All right, don't answ er! I don’t need your words, you snake!” H e let go an arm and his hard Bd- gers grasped the ’breed's throat. Be seechingly, Blitejay let drop something he bad held in one hand and grasped Tonng’s wrists. “Don’ !” he moaned. “Don*, Young! I... I didn’ . . H is knees were sagging but Kerry .lield the man half erect by his th ro at His grip closed down on tbe wind pipe and his own teeth showed in a gri.nace of rage. “You He!’’ he growled. “Too lie, B laejayl You’re guilty as helL And w hat you’re going to do is this! “You’re going out of this country as fast as the good God will let you! A nd' if yon ever show up again,"—shaking him slowly—“if you show your face here so long as I’m here I'll strangle yon to death as sure as w ater runs dawn hill! Now . . . do you under stand?” With a sideways fling, he let the man go. Bluejay sprawled on the floor, but before he came to rest he was scram bling to his feet, circling to be away from Yoang. Toward the door he scut tled and down the steps he ran. . . . As K erry stopped to pick up that trhich the ’breed had dropped, the sputter and roar of a motor could be beard and when he smoothed out the bin and searched its crisp surface for the serial number, gears whined and a battered flivver stirred the dust of Ihe street as Bluejay staj-ted for some where else with all the Speed he could wring from the ancient contraption. M d Knight came from behind the counter. Men who had been outside were entering, curiosity aroused by Bluejay’s flight. “My gosh, Kerry, you sure put a crimp in that Injun!” Knight said with a queer grin. “I’d like to bet he won’t be seen here again. . . . My gosh, what made him look so scared afore you Biade a move?” “Dam’ right he won’t come back!” said another. “Betcha fifty dollars he won’t ever show up here ag’in ! Betcha Jrannerd' dollars M ister Young could Eck Dempsey, he could!" “Did yah see him grab him?” a third asked a t large. “I thought he was a-goin’ to squeeze his wizzen in tw ist!” Young gave no heed to these observa tions o r questions. He knew certain serial numbers by heart. This was one: a twenty-dollar bill of a certain series, crisp, unused. For a moment he was Impelled to tell w hat had happened this morning on Townline lake, but as he drew breatb. to- speak car brakes squealed natside and Ezra Adams’ voice, curi ously strained, called sharply: “H as anybody happened to see Kerry Young?” K err; looked through tbe doorway a t Ezra’s face: The spectacles were shaved upward, Ihe old eyes were- wide and fingers Iomhied nervously id the gray beard. “Hi, E zra!’’ he called, starting for w ard. “W hat’s up?” W hat was up? Enough was up! Too much w as up for old- nerves to take calmly,, for an old voice to narrate coherently, for an old mind to grasp comprehensively. As quickly and' as clearly as he coold, Ezra told the story that the !■risoner had! told him. “A frame-up* on Stuart!” muttered Toung. ; “Good. God, W est’s hand is In this. Why,. Unless we beat ’em to It, they’re going to make the rotteaesi kind of trouble for H olt!" Those were his words and they voiced an honest thought, but not ttie thought uppermost in his mind. The thing which hurt him with the acuteness of physical pain was this: Before sundown. Nan Downer was to see her lover led away to jail as a suspect in the m urder of her father. “And they’ve gone!” Ezra rasped. “They crossed th’ wagon bridge-just as I made the tu rn : Bridger 'nd Butch, bis deputy, 'nd Tod West'! They’re bound for the cabin sure as you’re born and—” “Get out of that seat!” snapped Young. Roughly, he shoved the old man from beneath the wheel, and stepped in to his place. “Up, T ip !" — as he pressed the starter. “W hat d'you think we’d ought to do?” Ezra cried. “Hang o n !” said Kerry as, throwing in the clutch, he spun the car about, Iieaded down-stream, lurciied into the ruts leading to the wagon bridge and shot across with a roar. Up-stream, then, past Nan’s mill, be hind headquarters and Into the road the sheriff's car had followed. Young's brows were drawn. He di vided his attention between the theory forming In his mind and the treach erous ruts and cliuck holes of the road. “Listen, E zra!” he said, “we've got to get to that cabin before they do, hold ’em off, see. w hat's been planted there, keep Stuart from arrest and have a chance to pin the frame-up. at least, on WesL Nobody else'd want to do it.” “B ut how'—” “I don't know! I don't know how ! The im portant tiling is , . . “Lord, w hat a bump! H urt you? Hang on, th en ! Here’s a better stretch !" T heir way was now through an old burning where the ruts ran straight and the chuck holes were few. W ith foot throttle down to the Iloor-boards, Kerry shoved the little car.. For a mile they traveled at high speed and then, brakes on, stirred vast, dust clouds as they skidded for a left turn into a dim trail. “H ere! W here you—That's the only w ay!” “It was. Ezra, until a few weeks ago. Beaver dam’s out. I came through here on foot this morning. Unless I over looked a lot we can get through. If we get through, we’ll be ahead. If we don’t, w e’re sunk for the time being, anyhow:” Tall grasses raked the fenders; bri ars squealed their way along the dusty paint. Here they crawled on low through a marshy stretch; there they made a sandy grade by a hair. Young got out once to lift a dead sap ling from tbe way and leaped back In to start forw ard with a vicious lurch. Down grade they w ent; down into a cattail bottom, into a silt basin that had been, until this summer, a beaver pond for many years, He had crossed this noon the old His Hard Fingers Grasped the ’Breed's Throat. culvert, that had been under w ater for so long. He thought he remembered its condition but '-Vjis not sure. Anyhow, he yelled in Ezra's ear, it was this way or no way. H e slowed as they reached the creek bed, eased the front wheels gingerly up on the water-bleached corduroy, held his breath as the car’s weight slowly went on the structure and then, as it gave and crackled beneath them, gave the motor everything it wou’ra take. They, tilted, they sagged. A hind wheel spun, tires Singing and the smell of burning rubber was strong. He gripped the wheel until his knuckles showed white. Old Ezra clutched wildly for a hold as tile car ca reened . . . The spinning wheel found purchase. They crawled forward, slewed side ways and finally, with a bump and a bounce, were away from the culvert, roaring for the high land beyond. “Made h e r!” K erry yelled, “and we’ll have most a half hour before they can get to the cabin by the good road.” They were ahead of Bridger and his companions, for certain, but they had not gained a whole half hour. The one tire, frayed by its tussle on the culvert, went down and they made the last two miles of sand trail through the timber on a flat, bouncing and rat tling and unable to make time even where the sharp turns and deep ruts might have perm itted more speed. Young was out of the car before the motor stopped spinning. H e strode to tbe door, threw it open and paused. “See that dirt?” he asfced, pointing V to the trickle of dust across the floor. The doctor’s old eyes followed' his pointing finger, traced the stringer of fine lumps and granules across to tbe far corner. ’ "That's where it'd ’ve been,” he mut tered, glancing at the one window. “B luejay said he looked through the window. It's the only corner he could see handy.” “And he said he saw H olt In here about sun-down, Thursday?” "As I recollect it.” “A plant for sure! I was In here about then, Thursday. The floor was clean, Ezra. But today . . . this stuff was here. Let’s go!” He was on his knees beside the two short sections of flooring, eyeing them closely. “See? H ere’s w here-they were pried up with something,” he said excitedly. “Then they dug a hole for the box and carried the dirt out; maybe in a bucket or a newspaper . . . anything. But they were either careless or w hat they used leaked. T hat’s why they dirtied the floor. . . . N ow!” He reached for an ax leaning against the wall, inserted the bit In a crack between boards and pried carefully. “Ah !" The nails gave readily. “Careful of these boards now. They may be evidence. . . . H ere we go!" He began scooping earth that came out in chunks and lumps, some of which crumbled to dust in the handling. Then his busy hands suddenly touched metal. Ezra, stooping far over, breathed quickly. W ith care Young worked his fingers beneath the object, lifted, and out it came, a dirt covered, flat box of japanned metal. “Cash’s box!” the physician m ut tered; and . . .” His voice trailed off In suspense as K erry tugged at the catch of the cover. W as the money which would forever put Nan. Downer beyond the reach of Tod W est there? W as emancipation for this girl . . . The catch gave; the cover opened and Ezra’s low moan joined the sound of a sw iftly approaching car. “Only th at!” he said flatly. “Three of ’em,” m uttered Kerry. “Three hundred-dollar bills!” “And the rest of it gone beyond—” “Not for sure! This Is a plant, re member. He’d put only enough here to pin the thing on H o lt Yes,”— scrutinizing the bills—“they’re the proper numbers. The re s t Ezra, is cached somewhere yet! “And here they come!” The car swung into the clearing, Its motor died and a voice said sharply. “W hat th’ h ell!” O ther voices sounded, subdued. Then they heard the w ords: “Ezra’s bus “W hat’ll we do now?” the old man whispered. ‘Stand p a t!” K erry m uttered, closing the box; closing It and flipping the cover up again quickly to Stard a t the inside surface, black and glossy. Its lacquer still brig h t A curious sinlle of trium ph w as in his eyes a sj he raised his face. ^. Ezra, this is your investigation. Don't let ’em get their hands on a piece of this evidence because—” i It was N at Bridger, swinging through the door. W hat comes off here?” be demand ed and stopped, poised ju st within- the room, frowning. “Oh . . . You, E zra!” His ready hand dropped from ;■ the hip. “You’re here,, eh?” iI Yes,” the coroner said, shoving! up his spectacles. “Yes, N a t Goodi- af ternoon ! Howdy, Butch,”—as the dep uty appeared. Bridger turned to bis subordinate and then looked past him at Tod W est who approached slowly as if, perhaps, he were not just sure of how to con duct himself. W ell,'this is a surprise,” the sheriff growled. “How come you’re here, Ezra?” Official business, N a t I got a tip this afternoon that, mebby, there’d be somethin’ of interest to the coroner of this county In this camp. ’Nd I guess, mebby. the tip wasn’t so far wrong.” At that point Tod W est showed him self In the doorway. He halted there and his eyes rested an instant on the old physician. Then, as it he forced himself to an ordeal, they swung to Kerry. But if he expected to find challenge or accusation on Young's face he was wrong. ‘They heard it too. Tod,” said Bridger and In his voice was an appeal for guidance, perhaps. B ut W ests mind was not simple. He was thinking things, many things, try ing, in his sw ift reasoning, to en compass all the elem ents possible to this situation. “Frank probably peddled his story,” W est said. Bridger now moved closer to Young and his deputy followed. “So that’s w here he had it cached, eh?”—stopping and peering down at the hole. “Let’s1 see the box, Youiig.” K erry pivoted on one foot, snuggling the box against his side, swinging it away from the: outstretched hand. “Not just yet, sheriff,” he said. Bridger gawped. “Not just . . . Say,”—straightening and w hirling on Ezra—“just what comes off here?”- The coroner’s face showed bewilder m entK erry spoke quietly: “W hat’s coming off, Bridger, is a cor-, oner’s Investigation.” ••Well,”—harshly—“it’s a sheriff’s in vestigation, now. Give me that, boil” Young rose, then. “No, Bridger. When the coroner has finished, then it’ll be tim e for your—” “Who the hell are you to be buttin’ Into a m urder ease?” Kerry shrugged. "I'm only a deputy coroner,” he said. “Deputy cor— Since when?" Ezra grabbed the cue. ; “For a couple of weeks now, Nat. I appointed Young as m y deputy ; so’s to. have another pair of eyes and ears in this ceuntcy.” The sheriff scratched his head and OTBDted- Tod W est took a step or tw o which put him close to the table and leaned against it, watching, Hstemng A On cup w as there; he picked It up and tw irled It In his bands. H is heart was pelting his ribs, now, but it was no moment to m ake a move, to say a word. Things had been hap pening of which he had been ignorant His play was to learn as much as pos- sible. . “Well, even so ” began B rlager ana scratched his head again. He hazard ed a course: “B ut you had your inquest; you got nowhere. Now, seems to me, we got a hot lead on this case. I guess it’s up to my office to go through with it and make the pinch. We’ve got to have evidence, so I guess I’ll demand w hat you two have found here.” ‘•Demand away I” snapped K erry. “Demand and be damned to you, Bridger. Your authority, isn't one, two, three with a coroner’s. Go read your law.” No need of this. Bridger knew that much, but on the rebuff he flushed hotly. Before lie could speak, how ever, Young went on: “There’s nothing about w hat we’ve found to cover up. In this box are just three hundred dollars In three bills. The serial num bers correspond to those Cash drew from the bank the day he was killed. “There may be other Items here which will figure quite largely in the case, though.” That, he knew, was bad judgm ent. He knew It before the words w ere out of his mouth, before W est dropped the tin cup. He did drop it and It rolled across the floor. “Just w hat d’you mean?” N at de manded. “We don't know y e t We’ve just made a start. Now, you’re a t liberty to do any investigating you w ant to just so long as you don’t mess things up for us. “Our plan,” he concluded, “was to take this stuff in and go over the evi dence taken a t the inquest." “But w hat about Stuart?” “Well, you answ er th a t W hat about him?” “My God, ain’t you goin’ to m ake a pinch?” K erry debated. H ave Holt S tuart dragged off to the Shoestring jail be fore N an’s eyes? H ave him lodged there, even for no more than a few hours, perhaps, charged w ith her fa ther’s m urder? . . . “Do you think that’s sm art?” he asked in a conciliatory tone, sparring for tim e.. “So far as we know, there’s not a great deal against him y e t And if we keep quiet until tom orrow . . . who knows w bat’U develop?” B ridger saw hie chance of m aking an imm ediate and im pressive arrest fad ing. “I'm not so .damn sure; Young.! Throw ’em in the can first ’nd inves tigate afterw ard, I say I If he—” “B nt you might spill the whole plat ter of beans. Don’t you think, Ezra, it would be w iser to hold back?” “I certainly do! I’m not going off half cocked on this case, N at. I w ant a chance to sit down and add up w hat we’ve got now.” K erry nodded once, encouragingly, and looked covertly a t Tod W est, who w as retrieving the tin cap, tw irling it with apparent casualness In his fin gers again. The hands, however, w ere trembling. “W hat d’you think, Tod?” N at asked. “Why, that’s up to you. Me, I’d take Stuart If you've got anything on him. First, though, Fd look this lay-out over pretty careful.” “And Ezra and I,” said Young, “we’d probably better be heading for town.” “I think so, too,” said the old man, but his eyes w ere m ystified; he was following his deputy’s lead. “B etter bring along those boards,” Young suggested. “We’ve got th at tire to change.” They w ent outside, then, leaving the other three within, and K erry put the box carefully on the seat cushion. “Stall,” he whispered. “Let ’em clear out I” He looked at his right hand and rubbed his finger tips together. He touched again a sm ear of sticky dirt on the edge of the box and then bus ied himself with Jack and wheel wrench. For 20 minutes he stalled for time in tbe changing of that tire. In the beginning a low and hurried m uttering cam e from the cabin and then N at spoke freely. “All right. Butch. Let's m easure this thing off, now, so’s we c’n tell a jury all about it' when the tim e comes.” . Sounds of pacings from the interior of tbe cabin, observations, argum ent Then, consciously intent, the sheriff and his deputy searched the entry and the cabin’s surroundings for w hat theymight find. Tod w est rem ained leaning against the table until they came out- then he followed them w ith a fine show of Impersonal interest. “Well, mebby you’re right,” Bridger said finally, approaching E zra and Young. “B ut I got K duty. I won’t w ait too long, ril drive to town and come to your office tonight I’m IeaVin- Butch a t th Landin’.

Several months ago a collision of school bus and a car occurred just south of the Yadkin bridge here. Last spring or fail a school bus from Avery enroute wrecked just west of North_Wilkesboro and [15 children landed in the hospital — the rear one of the two school buses Irving to pass another and a State truck also same* time. Drunken- nes was not involved but probably reckless or careless or dangerous driving was. Anyhow, lest we for get a stitch in time. Union coun ty has just experienced 5 tragedy. A drunken driver in a heavy motor truck that should' be running on the railway smashed into a schocl bus, scattered children up and down the highway like so much merchandise, and then took another bump at the bus after it had been knocked 65 steps by the first blow this accoeding to the sheriff of Union county, killing one - and. in* juring many other helpless school children. “ Shall the great State of North Carolina longer permit such things to hapDenf But how how can we prevent? you ask. In the first place, trucks of such enormous pro portions should not be permitted to travel on the same roads that are used for transportating our child- a. They are dangerous even when a sober man is- at the wheel and when a fellow gets on the out side of a lot of liquor and seats him self behind the steering wheel of such a truck, he is more dangerous than a crazy man with a double- barrel shot-gun. ‘In the next place it appears that our officers have about quit trying to enforce our-prohibition laws. The Home is reliably in formed that you can buy liquor up and down almost any highway in North Carolina, at any number of filling stations just a few miles a- part,” says the Union county paper. Can our prohibition laws be enforced? When public sentiment becomes sufficiently aroused to com pel our officers to enforce them They want votes and want to do what a majority of the people want done We have gone to sleep on the prohibition question. Can our better selves and appraisal of high standards of civilization be awaken- en. A few more such tragedies as the school bus catastrophe will hast en the day when the people of this State shali rise up in their might and demand that these conditions be changed. God hasten that day, for only God knows where we are headed if we allow drunken drivers to scatter our children up and down the highways of the State and wink at the things that cause civiiiza- to so act.” —Ex.

We demand that all useless and agencies existing in the Statef he abolished. That a rigid and effec tive policy of economy beinagurated, that the amount of expensive salari es be reduced to a minimum, that lo cal self government be re-established in the several counties of the State and local business of the communi ties be transacted without bother some State department interfer ences. We demand that savings thus effected and otherwise possible bis used in the first instance to abolish the general sales and other nuisance taxes, that the tax on autoirobile license plates be reduced to a maxi mum amount of $4.00 per year on the highest cars and that the burdep of taxation generally shall be. rje moved from the long suffering tag- offices Thri vive.ee sons and six1 daughters sur- payers to the greatest extent possi ble without destroying the efficiency and effectiveness of our State, edu cational, charitable and other insti- tutions.

We demand that the educational system of North Carolina, both in the higher and lower branches, be removed abolutely from the field of polities. That the professors, teach ers and instructors in the local schools, colleges and university of the State shall be selected solely up on merit. That all unnecessary ex penses connected with the general administration tf the educational system of the State be eliminated and that the pay of teachers and others actually engage in instruction of pupils be increased as rapidly as the resources of the State treasury will permit and until the same is ade- quate, and . to that end we further demand that a special salary fund be allocated by the Legislature to be used exclusively for payment of pub lic school teachers salary. That an efficient system of promotion of teachers be adopted :in order that those best qualified and rendering bost services in the way of instruct tion shall be reward for their super ior qualifications.

H Gra ham. of Hillsboro, seeking the main chance in the Democratic primary in June, broadcast an -address from Raleigh Thursday night in which be declared that a special session of the North Carolina General Assembly should be called at once to consider security and tobacco crop control legislation. Graham declared North Carolina should take the lead in. a—move for controlling the size of the tobacco crop.-about to be planted and said this and other tobacco growing Staf c s “ face chaos unless we uudertake t< find a means of relief.” Saying this state can secure none of the old age pensions or unemploy ment insurance benefits under the federal social security act until neces sary Btate legislation is enacted. Gra ham said, “action is needed and needed now.” The gubernatorial candidate ad vocated a state a’coholic control system with local opinion, the state to operate stores only in counties voting for alcoholic control in ref erenda.

He said the success of public schools depends “in final analysis” upon the type of classroom' teachers employed, and citing salaries as “not representing fair or just compensa tion,” urged availability of addition-s- ftal funds to “correct this injustice. He favored supplements to allow ad ditional funds to “correct this in justice ” He favored supplements to allow additional progress Hf the educational system. ' Graham said the greater portion of available highway funds should be spent on maintenance of countv roads and should be used immediate ly. Reviewing revenues, he urged reduction of the price of automobile tags one-half, Baying it could be done. He favored placing the state high way and public works, commission since “ the'patrol.is no longer a tax. collecting agency.” Such a move, he said, would make the patrol a- vailable for enforcement of bigt- way laws and regulations He cat'- ed for “vigorous campaign for sale ty on highways.” "The sales tax was adopted as an emergency measure.” the Candidate said, “and we should work toward its repeal at the earliest possible date but that time is not here yet.” He stated the tax should be removed from meals and from the necessities of life as was the case in 1933. He pointed to increased revenues, and said changes be advacated could be put into effect and the budget bal anced because of these gains.—Union Republican. A V ery T all Tale.

IN ADVANCE - * I 00 SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE - J SO Sometimes we all become worried oyer every day trials and tribu lations. Men whom we have taken to be honest, turn out to be liars and thieves. Even the men higher up will get into the habit of lying until it is hard for them to tell the truth when it would serve their purpose better. Prosperity may be here, but to save our lives we cannot locate any of it. Some of our debtors have been promising to pay us for the past three or four years, and up to this good hour they haven’t showed up. Here’s hoping that it won’t be long until some of this bragged about prosperity will strike Davie county. Under a new law passed by the 1935 legislature, Davie county will elect a Register of Deeds this fall who will serve for four years Instead of two years, as heretofore. Up to the hour of going to prees we haven’t heaid of anyone who is thinking of announcing for this job with the exception of J. W. Turner the present incumbent, who has served efficiently for the past three years. The governorship race among the democrats in North Carolina is going to be between McDonald and Hoey from present indications. Sandy Graham doesn’t seem to have any chance at this writing but vou can’t always sometimes tell. Hoey is the man that is being backed by the machine, while McDonald is making his appeal to the farmer and the laboring man. In our opinion Hoey will get the nomination. It is hard to beat the democratic ma chine in this state. According to The State, McDonald is far in the lead in the straw ballot that paper Is taking, but the thousands of state employees haveu’t been beatd from yet. We believe that all of the pie- eaters will vote for Hoey when the June primary comes along. The Winston Sentinel seems to think that some of the Work's Poli tical Administration funds should be used to help find a Republican can didate for President. - The Sentinel finds fault with Borah, Vandenburg Landon, Knox and all' the other Republicans who have' been men tioned as possible candidates on the Republican ticket, We don’t think the Republican party should try to please The Sentinel when it conies to nominating a candidate for presi- ; dent. In our humble opinion Borah, Landon, Vandenburg or even Knox, would defeat Mr. Roosevelt next fall. The country has waited three years for the pros perity the democrats were to bring .. us, and it hasn’t arrived yet', despite the fact that Mr. Roosevelt has spent billions of dollars of the people’s money in raking leaves, building monkey houses, teaching the young folks how to dance and sing, and throwjng money in every direction Hon. B C. Brock, who has rep resented Davie in the legislature for the past two sessions, has been nomi nated for the State Senate from this district, which is composed of Wilkes, 'Vadkin and Davie. It is needless to say that Mr. Brock will . be elected next November, as' all three counties give Republican'ma- jorjties of from 300 to 3 ,000 . Mr. Brock has had quite a bit of exper ience in the legislative halls, having served two terms within the past foury.ears, and ope term some fifteen y ears ago. He .will fill the position with honor to h'imself ahd his party Just who will representDavie In. the House, is not known._ Those men tioned for this honor are L L- Smith; Brewster Grant, D. G. Tut- terow, R. S. Powell and perhaps others The field is open and the water is fine. It is less than 60 days until the primary, and whoever is going to make the race will have to get busy-before long. ~ Change In TheTerm Of Register O f Deeds. On the first of Decetnber James M. Lentz will have served . for 12 terms 24 years as register of deeds Forsyth county. As far as known there is only one other register of deeds in the state who has served longer and continuously. He is C. E Muse, register of deeds of Scot land county who took office in De cember, 1909 , three years before Mr. Lentz appeared on the scene Muse has been elected for 26 years while Lentz’s term is for 24 years. The-Iast lamented Legislature a- mended the act creating the office of register of deeds by making the term four years instead of two so if Lentz is nominated and elected in the November election be will serve a four-year term instead of two which will make his tenancy of the office 28 years. There are 100 counties in the state and when this bill came up to lengthen the term of the register of deeds from two to four years, -29 counties asked to be exempted from the provisions of the bill and these will continue to elect their register of deeds for a two-year term. The counties so exempted from the general law are: Alle ghany, Alexander, Ashe, Avery, Beaufort, Bladen, Clav1 Davidson, Halifax, Harnett, Haywood, Hyde, Iredell, Jackson, Johnston, Macon, Mitchell. Orange, Rowan, Stanley, Swain. Transylvania, Vance, Wash ington, Yadkin, Cherokee, Dare, Lincoln and Moore.—Ex Hauptmann Is Electro cuted. Trenton, N. J.. April 3.—Bruno Richard Hauptmann walked to the electric chair 'tonight and died in silence for the murder of Col. Char les A. Lindbergh’s baby His face was gray, but his limbs were firm, and he needed no help as be went briskly to the chair, Col. Mark 0. Kimberlingr prison warden, said he made no' confession to the crime which he had maintain ed throughout, that he did not com mit. Until the end he had hoped de sperately somethingjnight save him, the strange “something” which had intervened before to keep bjm .out of the little room with the dirty white walls, only a few paces from the cell where he had beta since Feb ruary 16,1935, three days after bis conviction. Hauptmann, pale and weak after thrice seeing the date fixed-for his death come and go—once on the hour—was led into the sober little execution chamber at 8:41 o’clock, 41 minutes past the hour set for his fourth date with death—the date he did not escape. Six and a half minutes later—at 8:47:30, he was pronounced dead after a double examination by six physicians. Governor Harold G Hoffman, who once before had saved him, did noth ing at the last minute tonight. There was expectation he would. Haupt mann himself, his wife Anna, and the condemned man’s counsel, C. Lloyd Fisher, who waited in the warden’s office, hoped he would. He had announced earlier be was powerless to reprieve at this time. Hayes Nominated. Republicans of the eighth con gressional district nominated by ac clamation Kyle Hayes, 30 -year old attorney of North: Wilkesboro, as their candidate for congress, named D J. Lybrook, of. Davie county, as elector, and selected Avalon E. Hall of Yadkin county and Golin G. Spencer of Moore county, delegates to the national Republican. con vention. Man Held On Bad Check Charge. J. D. Davis, Mooresville: horse trader and allhged check IlaBher,- is now in the Davie county jail awaiting trial on a charge here of giving _a worthless check in the sum of $60 in a horse trade with W. H. Caudell about two monthB ago. A warrant was issued for Davis about one month ago. but officers in Mooresville were unable to find the man until recently. There are some nine or ten other warrants out for Davis, according to information obtained at Mooresville by the Davie sheriff when he went there after Davis had been arrested to bring him to this county for trial. AU the warrants, according to the Daviesheriff, are . based on giving worthless checks and are being held here pending the disposition of the case now pending. The warrants are from various counties, including Cherokee, Lincoln, Rowan, a h d others, it is reported. ' New Store To Open Friday. The W. J.

A severe storm ' visited Concord early Thursday morning, doing a million dollars to building and in juring several people. A cyclone struck Greensboro Thursday even ing shortly after seven o’clock; kill ing thirteen persons and injuring a bout 100 . Many houses were de molished and various mills and fact- ories damaged. Other sections of the state had storms with consider able property damage, but no loss ,of life. This is the' first time in many years that a tornado has hit so close to Mocksville. Heavy rains fell in Davie, and streams covered most of .the low lands, but wind did practically no damage in the county. Temperature dropped to freezing point here, with much ice in evidence Friday morning. A windy night prevented a heavy frost. .

This amount will pay one- fourth of the cer.ificates and ar rangements have been made with the Cashier of the Bank of Davie to pay this amount to the depositors. The depositors are requested to pre sent their certificates at the Bank of Davie and receive a payment of 25 per cent, of the amount of their cer tificate. The Trustees are expecting to make another distribution later in the year. Survey of Blind Being Made in Dwie. The state commission for the blind has arranged with the Davie county school system for a survey of the rural sections of the county to locate any one who has seriously de fected sight, or who is blind. “ At the meeting of the school prin cipals, SuperintendantW F. Robin son distributed survey cards. The children will carry the cards home to their parents to write on them the name and addresses of any persons who are blind or who have seriously defected sight. Then the children will return the cards to the school. Thecommission classifies as blind any one who is unable to read ordi nary print without the aid of glass es. Persons with seriously defected sight interpreted-liberally, because many eye disorders may be success fully treated in their early stages. The survey will include persons of both races ranging from Infancy to old age. Nor- should the ability or inability of person having eye trouble to provide for him self fin ancially be a consideration in turning his name. In the city the districts cards are sent in to each home by inclosing them in them in the light bills. The school system is giving- splendid co operation. Results in the counties in-the state in which follow up visits have been made seem to indicate 25 per. thousand seeing, which is high er than the proportion through the United States. It is expected, how-, ever that when the- final results tboughout the state-are known that there will be about four thousand blind. 'If any should fail to get a card [through either the school or the light {-bills.

I All of these are harsh accusations but there is enough evidence available now to make it appear th at there is, at least, some truth upon which such charges can be based. Of course, politicians will magnify ail phases of every subject which they discuss. The opposition will m ake the crimes look heinous and the adm inis tration spokesmen will make every thing look pure. Neither one Is justi fied in going quite to the extent of the IoOicated trend. It seems to me that voters ought not be fully convinced by either side but that they ought to examine the picture from the local viewpoint where the evidence is first hand and where the people who did a good job or who were guilty -of fraud- or corruption are known to the voters. Hhen1 if in November the election re- ntlts for the whole country show a preponderance one way or another, the voters will have established their will as being either in favor of or definite ly opposed to management of such things from Washington. • * • There are 3,071 counties In the Unit- States.

The com bination of taxes and an additional appropriation to be used as previous blank checks have been used by Mr. Roosevelt has enabled those who are opposed to the President and those who, w hile they may support him for re-election, tutp not In accord w ith some of his policies, to-make.-pub- Iic statem ents of their positions to a better advantage than w as possible before. If they had been able only to oppose relief, adm inistration support ers could have accused them of being opposed to the relief of destitute. To put taxes and a blank check together sim ply offers additional am munition and a good m any members of congress will - use. it ■ before,- th e . new ; relief ap propriation is voted. I think there is no doubt th at Mr. Roosevelt w ill get the money but there will be a great deal of accusing and denying, respectively, before the vote Is taken. T h at will be necessary in order to “m ake a record” upon which senators and representatives can seek re-election. W hen Mr. Roosevelt w as voted $4,- 880.000.000 a year ago, his opponents threw up their hands and said that “you can’t beat $4,880,000,000 for re- election.” Now, one hears observations frequently expressed that w hile “you can’t beat $4,880,000,000 for re-elec tion,” it is entirely possible tha~ $4,- 880.000.000 plus alm ost th a t much ntare may beat itself. In other w ords I have attem pted here to present a com prehensive analysis of the pros and cons In order to shfiw that since poli tics has crept in, has perm eated the relief setup, the AAA organization and other New Deal agencies, it is entire ly, possible for a reaction to develop w hereby the vast sum of money would be the cause of defeat rath er than the cause of re-election for Mr. Roosevelt. I. am .m aking no election prediction. T hat would be utterly foolish. W hat I have sought to do, however, plainly and simply, is to show how local com m unities are going to rule the roost to a greater extent in the 1936 election than usually is the case. » • • ' Much is being m ade of tbe Presi dent’s proposal to tax the surpluses of corporations. I S p lit on have hitherto report- Y o x P lan ed t0 y°u something o f the nature of the tax proposals but there have been de velopm ents th a t bring the subject again to the fore. One of these, per haps the m ost interesting one, is dif ferences th at have, arisen between men who are supposed to be the Pres ident’s closest advisers. Professor Raym ond Moley1 now a m agazine ed itor, lately criticized the tax plan most vigorously in his publication. At the sam e time, attention was directed here to the recorded attitude of Prof. Rex- ford Guy TugwelU Professor Tugwell published a book called “The Indus trial Decline” not so long ago and in th at volume he advocated the control of capital by the “driving of corporate surpluses into the open investm ent m arket” by taxation. These two views sim ply cannot be reconciled and yet they cam e from tw o individuals whe have been very close to Mr. Roosevelt in an advisory way ever since Mr. Roosevelt, entered the W hite House. Professor Moley takes the position, editorially, th a t if, during the depres sion, American industry had been stripped of all surpluses, few of even the greatest corporations could have survived. He regards surpluses as life insurance policies for corporations and holds tbe conviction th at unless a corporation Is perm itted to retain funds as It sees fit, it cannot protect itself when our economic structure goes Into a tailspin such as that through which we have been passing.

But •- none . equals tbe sheer horror of the mystic rites prac ticed by those primitive people who live on the high, snow-bonnd table land of Tibet, says a w riter In An swers Magazine. In the land of the Lamas a cruel, austere religion exercises the most terrorizing influence over its devotees. Fear of ghosts and de mons haunt every devout mind; Some go mad or die of terror dur ing frightful ceremonies. Like many uncivilized peoples, the Tibetans live at the mercy of . their own vivid and uncontrollable imaginations. Grotesque and fear some hallucinations — monstrous shapes and phantoms — confront the .credulous, half-crazed Tibetans a t every turn. Their terrors assume reality In ' their own minds, till, hypnotized by their fears, they are unable to distinguish fact from fancy. They Uev In a nightmare world peopled by specters and demons. Among religious ascetics, the cer emony of Initiation to holiness actually consists of invoking these ghastly fantasies until the novice is hysterical with fear.

TUGWELL, head of, the rural resettlem ent adm inistra tion, announced that a special commit tee Is considering a plan unde- which more than half a mil lion growers of farm products would receive double benefits from the federal govern- MtljV- m ment. Itprovidesthat the rural fam ilies now getting l o a n s from Tugwell’s adm inistra tion to put them on their feet and keep them off the relief rolls may also receive R. G. Tugweii {ull Ell JtstJy payments In connection with the soil conserva tion program now being put into op eration. There , are now 450,000 recip ients of the Tugwell loans and the number is expected to increase to 525,- 000 by July I. The soil conservation subsidies are to be paid to farm ers who transfer land from commercial crop production to soil conserving growths, or who re sort to other “economic” farm prac tices. Officials said that the rehabilita tion clients already are under obliga tion to treat their soil wisely. Before a family can obtain a rehabilitation loan it m ust agree to follow a farm management plan drafted by the gov ernm ent This plan stipulates that the borrow er m ust conserve his land’s fertility and grow food and feed crops for home consumption. It also includes a finan cial budget. ONE of the m ajor features of tlie new tax program suggested by President Roosevelt Is omitted from the m easure prepared by a house sub committee and on which open hearings were begun by the ways and means committee. For political reasons it was decided th at the plan for new processing taxes on farm and compet ing products should be abandoned. Mr. Roosevelt’s suggestion for a “windfall” tax to recapture p art of the refunded o r unpaid AAA processing levies was accepted by the subcommittee. A third suggestion of the President, for graduated taxes on the portions of Incomes which corporations do not dis tribute in dividends to stockholders, was changed to provide levies on total Income of corporations varied accord ing to percentages of profits put into reserves. The subcommittee agreed that the corporation tax rates should be ' so drafted as to perm it corporations, par ticularly small ones, to build up re serves for lean years w ithout being compelled to pay comparatively high taxes for the privilege of doing so. The subcommittee figured on col lecting some $25,000,000 from taxes on dividends going to foreigners who own stock in American corporations and $83,000,000 from tem porary continua tion of the capital stock and excess profits taxes. T lJST as Chairman C. Jasper Bell and his house committee were about to open their inquiry into tbe finances of the Townsend old age pension plan organization, Robert E. Clements, co-founder,. secretary and director of the movement, re signed. He was sum moned to be tbe first witness b e f o r e tbe committee but said bis resignation was not m otivated by this, but was solely due to his opposition to political activities of other lead ers of the organiza- Clements tion. Dr. F. E. Townsend in Los' An geles expressed his “hearty approval” of Clements’ action, and it w as predict ed other officials. of the movement would follow the secretary’s example. Clements appeared before the com mittee with a great m ass of records, ready to "account for every penny collected." Before testifying he said: “I have nothing to hide. I’m anxious to appear. I have been . responsible for financing tbe Townsend plan. I have collected around $850,0(H) and the organizaton has spent about $150,000. There is still $100,000 on hand.” fees, etc. The Borah-Nuys bill would prohibit such allowances only when they were refused to- purchasers of goods of “like grade, quality, and quantity.” ONE of the big fights w ithin the - American Federation of Labor bas been settled peacefully.

This latter move, he told the council of the 22 guilds of the cor porative state, was to Increase the na tion’s economic self-sufficiency. “W hen and how w ar will come, one does not know,” he said, “but the wheel of fate turns f a s t” • ... 7 . Mussolini asserted the large indus tries, particularly those working for the defense of the nation, would be formed into organizations called “key industries.” These, he said, “will be run directly or indirectly by the gov ernm ent Some will have m ixed^or- ganization.” 'j...

Europe, H itler was preparing his counter proposals which B ritish Foreign M inister Eden had requested M eanwhile the reichs- fuehrer continued his cam paign tour, delivering rousing speeches In defense of his policies. Speaking In Ludwig- sha fen, In the heart of the remili tarized Rhineland, he said: “Those who want us to grovel on our knees before agreeing, to talk w ith us forget we are not a tribe of savages, but a European nation looking back on thou sands of years of- culture. “I stretch out .my hand to France. We w ant peace for common sense, rea sons. Germany needs no more fam e on tbe battlefield, but is now getting ready to seek laurels in the Olympic peace competition of nations. Men who relish the indecent thpuglit of victor and vanquished are not statesm en. They m ust be silent wben peace talks start." Most of the continental statesm en who gathered In London to consider the Rhineland affair went home, some of them in very bad humor over the indecisive proceedings. The French, disinclined to consider any .further pro posals from H itler, were urging that the Fr.eneh. B ritish and Belgian general staffs get together on plans In accord ance with the Locarno treaty.

' SEVERAL witnesses who appeared before a senate subcommittee de clared that the Roblnson-I'atman anti- chain store bill, which has adm inistra tion backing, would promote rather, than curb monopolies, increase the cost and lower the standard -of living, and decrease employment In whole in dustries. Tbe bearing was on the Borab-Van Nuys bill, a modification of the Robiu son-l’atm aa measure, but the witnesses particularly attacked the latter, which already has been reported favorably.

The ,,new three, -power, pact lim its .th e size of battleships to 35,000 tons, retains 10,- 000 tons as the maximum for cruisers and provides no cruisers of that size shall be built for six years. In the expiring W ashington treaty there was an article regarding ■ forti fication of naval bases. This is not renewed in the new pact, and Japan requested information as to the future intentions of the powers. Conse quently the United States, G reat B ritain and Japan were carrying on diplomatic conversations bu that; topic. The new treaty gives, the signatories certain liberty of action in the event of unforeseen naval activity by powers not signatory to the treaty. So far as America is concerned, this “escape clause” is taken to apply mainly to japan. poU R T E E N persons perished In Mexico’s, worst aviation disaster. * A. big IrImotored-vPlanel. carrying tefc European tourists' a'nd four company employees crashed on the ridge be- tween the volcanoes Uopocatapetl and ixtaccibuatl and there were n p ' sur- vivors to explain why it fell.

More than half the sum goes for the m ilitary activities of the W ar departm ent There will be no reduction in the num ber of CCO cam ps during m ost of the coming fiscal year, and the en- roliees will be kept up to about the 350,000 mark.

Selznick’s ventures in reviv ing classics of litera ture has won him a well-deserved acclaim. “L ittle Tmrd FaunU e roy,” in which young Freddie Bartholomew, the English star, is featured, has attracted about -as mqch .atten tion as “David Copper- field,” which endeared Selznick to the Dick ens fans of America and abroad. Faithful adherence to the story itself In. the talkie ver sion w as responsible for much of its effectiveness. Lucien Littlefield,' co-author of the screen version of “ Early to Bed,” has joined the cast which already includes Charles Ruggles and Mary Boland. The picture,: originally-called: “W here ,Am I?” is a farce detailing the life and love of a clerk in a glass-eye factory. Ruggles plays the role of the clerk who is engaged to M ary Boland. The picture develops a kick when the down- trodden Ruggles goes bei^erk, quits his job and successfully establishes a rival glass-eye company. * —ft™ ODDS AND ENDS . . .

All of us are asking, “W hat Is the I prim ary cause of higher prices on .everything we buy?” It is not an easy. :question to answ er; bnt I am confident j th at no single factor contributes more, jlf as much, to higher living-cost than ,constantly Increasing taxes of all kinds; jThe insidious lnflnence of unlim ited ^taxation is felt In every hom e; for .every citizen is paying taxes on every thing he buys. I This w as clearly and forcefully ex pressed by Governor Franklin D. {Roosevelt In a Pre-Blection speech Oc tober 19, 1832: ! “!a x e s • are paid in the sw eat of every m an who labors, because they are a burden on production and can !be paid only by production. If exces- tSive, they are reflected In idle fac tories, tax sold, farm s, and hence In hordes of the. hungry tram ping the 'streets and seeking jobs In vain. Our {workers m ay never see a tax bill, but ,they pay In deductions from wages, In 'increased cost of w hat they buy or In broad cessation of em ploym ent There :1s not an employed man, there is not a 'struggling farm er whose interest In this Subject is hot direct and v ital -If like a spendthrift the government ithrows discretion to the winds, is will in g to m ake no sacrifice a t all In spend ing, extehds its taxing to the lim it of ,the people’s power to . pay and con tinues to I pile up deficits, It Is on the road to bankruptcy.” ji L ast year our taxes, National,vState and M unicipal:am ounted to m ore'thak Fifteen BllUon D ollars.'“The Power to Tax,”'sa id Chief JusUce M arshall, “is the Pow er to-D estroy,” and we must 'call a b ajt on the expense of Goverm m ent or Ibe destroyed- by the conse quences. ; W hen public officials brag about the Increase In pubUc revenue they are ,boasting of the amount that has been 'taken from the pockets of our dtlzena; fo r all public revenue comes from in-: Q ividqal effort, _ _ I t is your duty and mine to arouse pubUc sentim ent to a point w here it w ill demand a reduction In the cost of Government, so th a t our people m ay be able to buy and enjoy a larger share of the things they create. .

The m ark on the board fits exactly!" “B ut I don’t see yet why—” Toung gave an excited laugh. “Good Lud, E zra! This old bar’s as emooth and bright as if it’d been pol ished! Finger prints will be all over It. Inside the cover of that box. big a3 life and twice as natural, is a man’s thumb print and Tod W est stood in there for ten minutes fooling with a bright tin cup!" A light of understanding dawned In Ezra's old eyps. “Spread that newspaper," Toung said. "La., n on the ground. . . . So. . . . Xow we'll roll up this bar so the prints won't get rubbed away and . . . W hat the devil!" He had put the bar down and start ed to lift away the paper which bad shielded his hands. It stuck, peeled off slowly and he held it up to the level rays of a sun setting behind the tim ber. Touns sniffed the sm ear on the pa per, frowning; touched it tentatively with his tongue and gave a grunt. “Honey! . . . W hat’s honey doing on that bar, Ezra? And something sticky on the box. too.” They peered at one another. “And Tod W est," he said slowly, “all swollen up. Notice that?" “I did. W hat you make of that?” K erry puzzled, stared blankly at the ground and scratched a temple. “Nothing yet.” he muttered. "N oth ing. . . . But we've got a mess of stuff to make something of.” Carefully they gathered up their evi dence : the box, the bar, the floor boards and, lastly, also carefully wrapped in paper, the tin cup, with which Tod W est had busied his trem bling hands. CHAPTER X II They drove slowly back tow ard Nan’s headquarters, talking intently. To save Holt Stuart the ignominy of arrest, to tie together the evidence they had accumulated, to weave a net around Todd W est and to discover the rem ainder of the money that right fully Delonged to Nan were their m ajor objectives. In the car which preceded them had been intent talk, as well. W est had had little enough to say a t the cabin b ut once on the homeward way, with new fears, fresh doubts, even greater misgivings stirring within him. he had talked. Talked into Bridger’s ear, playing on the m an's vanity, his jeal ousy of his authority, his regard for his political fences. . . . And after those first minutes at Downer’s, with their confusion and ex citem ent and triumph, Tod W est, draw ing Bridger aside, talked further. W hat had transpired in JIel K night’s store between Toung and Bluejay had come to his ears and he passed it on to Eridger and made deductions and, in a fever of relief, let his suggestions run into demands. . . . As they rounded the bend and came into view of the Downer buildings, E zra leaned suddenly forward. “W hat goes on here?’’ he asked, star ing at the group clustered before head- By Harold Titus Tlliiafratinns by Irwin Myers Copyright by Harold Titus.

B rid g er; pushed his way toward Toiing as he opened the door of Ezra’s car| The sheriff bore himself with new importance. “Well, I guess you’ll have to Qdmit I was. lookin’ a little further ahead 'n you were, Toung I” he cried, waving sheet of. paper truculently, -••“I guess,-m ebby,'the sheriff’s office can still be depended on to follow its best judgm ent for the people of this county!” “Yeah? Just w hat do you mean?” K erry asked, evenly. “Mean? I mean I was right all along! This lad Stuart is the m an we want, Toung, and I wasn’t a second too soon, either. I guess mebby there’s be’n things goln’ on about this case that nobody but you ’nd him under stood! I’ll count E zra out because he’s . . . he’s an old man. “I don’t s’pose you knew he was packed up, ready to haul, did you?” “Holt, you mean?” “Tes, H olt!” Tod W est was edging up behind Brldger. frowning, nudging the sheriff. “Tes, H olt Stuart! Pack sack ’nd suit cases all strapped up. ’Nd I come on him w ritin’ this . . . w ritin’ it to Nan Downer, who’s be’n away today. Listen to th is!” He read: “ ‘D ear N an: It looks as if I’d stayed on here too long, now, and, by staying, risked all kinds of disaster. “He’d got just that far when I bust ed in on him. Now, you got any cock- ’nd-bull story to explain that?” “Why should I have an explana tion?” “I w ondered!”— edging closer with an expression of craft which K erry, in that moment of confused thought, did not detect—“I wondered, Toung, after I heard you done your best to drive the state's chief witness out of the country this—” “H ere! W hat the devil!” Toung grunted as he began to strug gle. Butch, the deputy, had him from behind. Bridger had grasped one w rist in both his hands; Tod W est stepped in to secure him, to help hold him de spite his first amazed struggles. “W hat comes off?” K erry demanded. “W hat’s the big idea, Bridger?'* The sheriff was reaching for hand cuffs. A leer came about his mouth. “I’ve got Stuart as a suspect in a m urder case,” he said loudly, “ ’nd I’m takin’ you, Toung, for interferin’ with a w itness in that very self-same case!” Cool steel encircled K erry’s w rists; the ratchets clicked. “Why, this is the damnedest, most far fetched outrage—” "Tou tell all that to the judge!” snapped Bridger. - “Here, you boys, get back, now! Stand away. Butcli ’nd me, we got to get these two into a cell. . . . Stand back, boys!” H e whirled to Kerry. “Tou got th’ guts to deny that you drove Frank Bluejay out of town this afternoon? H ave you even got th’ brass to explain that?” Toung w as breathing hard. Con fusion and dismay lay heavily upon him. He looked from B ridger to Tod W est and his lip curled. The man, with his swollen face, was glaring at him, trium phant for the moment, be cause his agile mind had turned events- off that course which, had it been fol lowed, might have overwhelmed him. Tes, try to explain that, if you c a n !” W est growled. K erry squared his shoulders. “Perhaps I can, Tod W est,” he said lowly. “Perhaps I can! Tomorrow's another day, remember." And handcuffed, with B ridger jerk ing him tow ard the open touring car in which he was to ride, a prisoner, in to the county seat, he laughed bitterly, defiantly. . . . Old Ezra, nervous lingers tw isting strands of beard, came close as Stuart was helped Into the back sea, and Toung ordered in bedside the driver. “Hoid everything, E z ra !” K erry said. Tou sleep on that stuff! Understand? Guard it with your life, If necessary. See me in the morning and . . . and take care of Nan H is voice dropped on this’ last and he averted his eyes from the doctor's face. Tip, still sitting on the seat of Ezra’s car, watched with stiff ears as this other autom obile moved away. The crowd, after that departure, began to buzz loudly. D octor Adams carefully gathered the pieces of m aterial evi dence they had found and carried them into Nan’s office. The dog whined a little, staring at the way his m aster had taken. Slowly, alm ost tentatively a t first, he took the road; stopped once and sniffed the air. Then, at a rolling lope, he disappeared beyond the sawmill, beaded for Shoe string. , „ The ride into town w as one long suc cession,of unsuccessful attem pts on the part of Bridger to make one or the other of his prisoners talk. “Ju st where were you all day Thurs day, H olt?” he asked in a patent at tem pt a t ingratiation. “Go to blazes!” “Now, th at ain’t no way.

C ar tools, loose on the floor boards a t K erry’s feet, clanked' and rattled as they took the bumps. “Now, Toung,’ you'd ought to come clean for H olt’s sake, about why you run this 'breed—” “Tell him to go to hell, Holt,’’ K erry chuckled. Again and again as they progressed through the dusk, N at made his in adept attem pts to worm. Information from the two. A fter a tim e when ever, he opened his lips, the two chant ed In solemn m easure: “Go to hell!” r “W elltSen;” Brldger finatty '.snapped; “if there’s any goin’ to hell to be done by this gang Tll leave It to anybody w ith eyes to see who’s on the road!” ,. They sw ung through town, around to the rear of the jail and entered by a side door. Butch and B ridger took their posses sions from the prisoners and ushered them into the bull-pen. - “Pick out your own beds,” the sher iff jeered unpleasantly. “Tou'li have tlie place to yourselves, likely.. And I hope you like it, both of y ou!” It was not long before excited citi zens commenced to arrive. They clomped up the front 9teps and through the corridor and cast self-conscious glances into the dimly lit apartm ent behind the b a rs; w ent into the sheriff’s office and congratulated him boister ously and cam e out more boldly and hung against the steel door of the bull-pen and peered through.. But K erry on a bunk In a cell, and Stuart on another, kept out, of sight and made no response to the advances. Bridger w as in fine spirits. H is talk rose high and higher. H e became alm ost hysterical in this, his.m om ent of largest triumph. At late evening the stream of callers had petered out. Butch had been called out to a country dance where bad whisky had caused trouble and wheu no one appeared for a quarter of an hour, B ridger stalked down the corridor and called through an open doorw ay: "I’ll be over at the pool hall, M a! If anybody calls, or you hear anything, ju st ring me. Them boys’ll be all right. . . They’d be all right! As soon as the sound of his foot steps had died aw ay Toung was out of his cell, across the bull-pen and sitting on the edge of H olt's cot w here the boy lay, face In bis arms. “Buck up, so n !” he whispered, a hand on the lad’s shoulder. “It looks like a kind of a mess, but we’ll clear it up!” A shudder traveled the lithe fram e beneath his touch. “W hat happened?” And when the other made no move: “Won’t you tell me?’’ Slowly S tuart rolled over, and the faint light from above showed his face w hite and drawn. “Damned if I know !” he muttered; 'T d packed up this afternoon. I was on my way. I didn’t w ant to leave w ithout some word for Nan. I’d just Started to w rite a note when In busted Bridger, grabbed It off the desk and “T hat's all; except that' I lost my head and tried to take ’em all on.” “Then you were actually JhauMp^?”. “Tes,”—bitterly. *' “W hy?” No answ er. Stuart contin ued to stare at the latticed bars above him. “W hat was the big Idea, H olt? Tou don't mean . . . It can’t Vg,"— tensely— “that this yarn Bluejay told “Certainly n o t!” Stuart sat up quickly and drew both hands across his eyes. "Hell, no! W hat this is all about, I can't tell you. I got enough from B ridger's boasting to see w hat they’re driving at. And I w as off alone all day Thursday and I w as leaving and I did start a note to Nan with a couple of sentences that, maybe, will m ake it look a little tough in the beginning. But I didn't kill Cash and I didn’t bury anything at Townllne and I w asn’t there T hursday! Somebody’s trying to fram e me but It’s . . . T hat's a detail, now.” Toung drew a long and mystified breath. ' “D etail! Maybe. B ut . . . Good Lord, chum, they’ve got enough stuff to hold you here until we can blow up their case. Why, it’s w orse looking than I’d figured it could be. . . .” He scratched his tem ple briskly. “Damn it all. they’ve— “W here were you, for instance, all day Thursday, the day Bluejay ap- parently’s ready to sw ear he saw you at the cabin?” “All over hell’s half acre.” “Alone?” “Alone." ‘•‘Doing w hat?” “W alking.” “W alking! . . . W hy, Stuart, aren’t you . . .” H e shook his head hope lessly. “And then you get ready to pull out and w rite to Nan9th at you’ve been risk ing all kinds of disaster—" “And didn’t I?”—savagely. “Didn’t I stay here and eat my heart out and know all along that It was. no use?. T hat I’m too young and not big enough for a.giri like that, anyhow? And then you—- Toung’s head w as in a whirl. "But, good Lord, son, didn’t she , . . didn’t E zra . . .

Well, as Ezra told it to me, ju st when she’d fallen in love with you!” “W ith m e!” The boy's exclam ation gave K erry a curious feeling; Holt’s Jook1 wide, amazed, shocked, farthered his con fusion. ... “W ith me!", he repeated and laughed bitterly. “Toung, are you blind? is old Ezra crazy? . . ; Tes, he w as there; he cam e into the office 1u3t after she’d told me th a t. . . ” ^He closed his eyes and his body shuddered again. “She took me Into the office aw av from , thexafcers after-.W est la t.

T h at . . . that’s all there is to tell you, Toung.” H e turned, away. “I guess, K erry, you’re as blind as I thought you were. All along, ever since I first saw you and N an together. I’d. been afraid of it, I . . . I’d loved her a long time, you see.” Strength drained from K erry’s body. One knee shook spasm odically. H is throat swelled and a chill like th a t induced by fog enveloped him. “Tou mean . . . she said I . . . Holt, and you’re telling me this!" The other turned aw ay sullenly as if in collapse. H e leaned on one el bow, looking aw ay from his fellow prisoner. “All right,” he m uttered when Toung moved tow ard him im petuously. “It’s all right. I w as jealous of ypu a t first b u t. . . it’s got to be all rig h t! Tou’re her kind. I . . . Tm over . . . every thing, now. I . . . I’d ju st like to be alone for a m inute, please.” T hat is how it happened that Toung stood alone at a rear window of the jail, hanging w eakly to the bars, head pressed against the cold steel, eyes closed, with a sw eet agony surging through and through his veins. . . . So his heart had found a home . . . unoccupied! So this w as the w ay love “I’m Too Young and Not Big Enough for a Girl Like T h a t” had come to him !

AU these details now ,-in memory, returned w ith their full sig nificance. She did not love H olt Stuart. She loved him, K erry Toung! And she w as out there, now, distressed, aw ait ing him, and here he was, jailed, help less to help her, w ith Tod W est in the saddle. And if W est could keep him out of the way and hot-headed, im pulsive H olt S tu art out- of the way . . . H e straightened.

The casual word, m aking no im pression a t ‘the time, cam e back now, looming into trem en dous im portance. . . . H ornet? O r a bee? And honey?” He cocked his head to listen. No sound from S tu a rt H e w et his dry lips to speak and checked him self. . . . Prom beyond the circle of light throw n by the incandescent above the jail’s side door, he. saw movement. A vague, taw ny blotch moving tow ard him, and then a light, light snuffling. It was Tip, tail threshing, coming faster now, coming tow ard the sher iff’s car standing there w here it had been le ft; putting his paw s on the running board, sniffing a t the front seat cushion, staring about and pant ing from his long run. “T ip!" he called lowly. *‘0h, T ip!” The dog whirled. Toung spoke the nam e again. The retriever threshed his tail and, running to the wall, placed his front feet against it; stretching to his full height. “Drop, boy!” w hispered K erry cau tiously. “D rop! Good dog I” H astily, Jie ran along the cells until he reached S tuart’s. “Listen, chum !” he whispered, grasp ing the other’s artn as he lay on his side. “W hat you’ve said ’ . . * .

GOLDEN TEXT—Because I live, ye ■hall live also.—John 14:19.PRIMARY TOPIC—The Glad Surprise. JUNIOR TOPIC-r-Jesus,the Conqueror. ” INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Jesus Is Alive. TODNG PEOPLR AND ADULT TOPIC—Our Living Lord. T he suprem e test of C hristianity Is the fact of th e resurrection of Jesus C hrist from the dead. It m atters little w hat Jesus said and did while alive If his body rem ained in the grave. If he did not come forth in trium ph from the tomb, then all his claim s are false. On the other hand, If he did arise, all bis claim s are true. Fortunately, there is no better authenticated fact in all history than th at of the resurrec tion of the body of Jesus C hrist I. The .Empty Sepulchre (w . 1-3).- 1. T he coming of the women {v. I). As an expression ot affectionate re gard for the M aster, they cam e w ith spices for his body. This w as a beau tiful expression of sentim ent but showed their lack of faith. If they had believed his words, they would have known th at his body could not be found In the sepulchre. 2. W hat they found (w . 2, 3). W hen they cam e to the sepulchre, they found the stone had been removed. How the stone w as to • be removed greatly perplexed them on their way, but on their arrival they discovered that their difficulty had already been m et They fonnd the stone rolled away, but they found not the body of Jesus.- For them to have found his body in the sepulchre would have been the w orld’s greatest tragedy. The em pty tomb spoke m ost eloquently of the deity and power of the Son of God (Rom. 1:4). II. The Message of the Men in Shin ing Garments (vv. 4-8). 1. “W hy seek ye the living among the dead?” (v. 5). This question has been reverberating through the cen turies since it w as uttered by the an gels. 2. “H e is not here, but is risen.” Jesus had made all these m atters quite plain. He had told them th at the Lord m ust be betrayed and crucified and that on the third day he would arise again. If they bad given heed to his words, they would have been relieved of their perplexities. III. The Women Witnessing to the Eleven (w . 9-11).' - T heir thrilling testim ony concerning the em pty tomb and the w ords of the angels appeared to the disciples as idle tales and they refused to believe: IV. Peter Investigating (v. 12). W hile the testim ony of the. women seemed as idle tale9, P eter w as not of the tem peram ent to dism iss the m atter from his mind. Therefore, he ran to the sepulchre. Opon close investiga tion be found the Unen clothes lying in such a w ay as to prove the reality of the resurrection. V. The Convinced Disciples (vt. 13- 35.) 1. The w alk of two discouraged dis ciples (w . 13-15). Em m aus w as seven and a half m iles northw est of Jerusa lem. Ju st why the disciples w ere walk ing this way we m ay not surely know. The topic of conversation as they w alked m iles northw est of Jerusalem . Ju st why the disciples w ere w alking this w ay we m ay not surely know. The topic of conversation as they w alked w as the tragedy of the cross and the resurrection rum ors. If they had be lieved w hat Jesns said about his com ing forth from the grave, they would have expected to hear such reports. 2. The unrecognized companion (vv. 16-24). a. W ho he w as (v. 16). W hile they reasoned together on th e w onderful events of the p ast few days, Jesus joined them on the journey. b. H is question (v. 17). Perceiving their sadness and perplexity, he sought to help them by calling forth a state m ent of their grief. This question sur prised them and caused them to jum p a t the conclusion th a t he w as a stran ger In Jerusalem , for the condem nation and crucifixion of the great Prophet of N azareth were so recent and no torious th at no one who had lived In Jerusalem could be ignorant of them . 3. The Scriptures opened (w .'25-31). a. H is rebuke (w . 25-30). H e re buked them not for their.unbelief of the strange stories th a t they had heard, but for ignorance and lack of confi dence In the Old T estam ent b. Jesus recognized (v. 31). W hile sitting a t m eat w ith the disciples their eyes w ere opened as they saw him bless the bread and distribute to 4. The effect upon the disciples (vt. 32-35). They w ere so filled w ltii joy over this revelation of the Saviour th at they hastened back to Jerusalem to tell th e other disciples of his resurrec tion. ~ . ..

Older people who somehow do not seem to be able to adjust their lives to modern ways and are discontent oyer the present day extravagant system of conducting the schools and who continuously yearn for what they like to refer to as “ the good old days’’ probably wouldjaot like some of the inconveniences of those days afrer ail if they had to return to them. The elders simply do not realize that their lives, or rather their standards of living, have been changed so much since the days when they were school children. W eadmit that “ the good old days” pTobably had some advantages in being less strenuous and easier on the mind in many respects; but we doubt if anybody who has seen bet ter days since the change came about would he content to live in the man ner which was not uncommon ' in the 9 0 ’s, and previous to that time. In one of our exchanges, we have found a sketh of life in the “ good old days” which is typical of a great many homes which existed previous Iy to the dawn of the' Twentieth century. Thesketchhasbeen pub lished previously in several papers; but we reproduce it here for the- contemplation of some of those people who are diseentented with their allotments of the present day. “ I was born eight miles from a railroad; five miles from a school house, nine miles from a church, 200 yards from a wash hole and fifteen feet from a cornfield, " We owned two kerosene lamps, .neither of which had a chimney. Our bouse wasn’t ceiled, but two of our rooms had lofts in them. We had a glass window in our “ company” room. Our nicest piece of furniture was a home-made rocking chair Our beds were of the slat, or tight-' rope variety The trundle bet! took care of all the yunguns under five years ot age. and it stayed full all the time. We went to school three or four months in the year, bat not in a bus We attended”ch urch once a month, but not in a car; we used a two mule wagon. _ We dressed up Sunday, but not in silks or satins We neither wrote letters no, receiv ed any. We made our own lye hominy, distilled our own lye from our own ash hoppers. We drank sassafras tea and never had a yearn ing- for coffee. We sipped our own molasses; we ate our own meat; we considered rice a delicacy for only preachers to eat; we knew about store-bought clothes, Kut never expected to be able to wear any; we got a stick of candy and three raisins for Christ mas and were happy; we loved Ma and Pa and were never hungry; en joyed going naked; didn’t want much and. expected noting. And that’s why our so called bard times ain’t so hard on me and a lot of others who were brought up the same way.” ■' T r u t h I d A N u t S h e ll.

Why be afraid? The Republicans can come in later and pay it offe President Roqsevelt is a marine and; he regards a good big debt as ar| anchor to windward He has beeH quoted as saying the total is "in | finiteSimal,” in comparison to oui j resources. In the past some very; wise governmental leaders have saidt the same thing—that is, that a good.! healthy debt Is a safety buoy, an'ri not a danger signal. What if thi ■ national debt is now over 31 billion- —which is. the highest on record? Figured just as interest, it’s no big; ger than it used to be. The TreasS ury has just borrowed a lot more money, to take care of the bonus and the farm program and put a- couple of biilions in the “petty; cash” till. Thismoney wiIl draw? only 2 3^ per cent interest, which- is only a little over half the rati? which was paid during the wars In fact, the bigger the debt, the less the interest.becomes! Will od ■ dities never cease? It doesn’t workv that way with you and me. In timei the total debt might thus become: infinitely great—and the interest; would be infinitely small. Possibly1 the people with money w ill; some day even be paying the government to take it off their hands and save them the trouble of spending. it- Imprisonment for debt used . to. be the regular-thing-^but whbt&gbing to. imprison Uncle Sam? ,Anyway, the debt-imorisonment laws which used to exist in every state have now been abolishment existing until around 1870, when the terrific blows which Charles Dickens, the novelist, dealt this evil forced its abolition in all counties. * ‘W h e n Y o u A n d I W e r e Y o u n g M a g g ie ” .

Vacations are . a boon. They donbtless should, be longer than the present average But they need a little equalization. Newspapers in the National Capi tal are blossoming out with head lines savin, ; “Congress to Re pair Injustices to Government Em ployes ” What are the injustices? Well, when the big 7but short lived “economy” wave started three years ago, the hard-hearted Con gress decided that over-worked gov eminent employes should have only 15 days vacation each year, plus Suudaysand holidays, plus Satur day half-half holidays plus 3 0 days sick leave. " Now, Congress is repairing that injustice by decreeing employes may have 26 days vacation, exclu sive of Sundays and holidays, plus up to 12 0 " days sick leave. The government employes complain that tb.ey should have 30 days vacations, plus Sundays and holidays. Isn’t it a shame to treat them that way? "W ho pays for this “injustice” to the employe who goes td work . at 9 a. m , and quits at 4:30 ? The Stenographer who puts in eight hours a day in primary employment $1,200 a year donates one days’ work each week to the Federal stenographer whose minimum sal ary is $1,440. The farmer, who is lucky is luckv if he can a week’s vacation. In a year, contributes $15 50 out ot each $ 49 he earns. The stenographer and farmer may not be conscious of their contribu , tions, but they pay their faxes just tbe same.

You may as well keep looking around the cornor for- prosperity, for there are poor prospects of it ever appearing again. With one sixth of cur population living off tbe public, with one-third of our earnings going for the upkeep of government. With our roads torn to pieces, our railroads bankrupt, the people that have money garnb Iiug or putting their money in tax free bonds instead of useful enter prises, with the public debt running into billi :-ns and a good portion of the people wasting instead of saving there can be no prosperity.— Ex. P I a n Y o u r G a r d e n N o w . Plan it now. These are planning days. Since no other spot about the farm or home will return anything more valuable than a vegetable gar den, it should be well planned. Real planning is called for where garden space is limited. Plans mast be well laid to assure an ample supply of each vegetable for the table and can ning as well and to make sure at the same time that the supply is continu ous from spring till fall. In limited spaced ground used for early pro- ductsmay be replanted with those maturing late in the- season. Tnose who have the most successful gard ens usually plan them in detail before buying their seed. In fact, the suc cessful gardeners have already start ed that planning, for they long ago learned that properly planned, prop erly tended and cared for gardens, no matter how small, will far more than pay for themselves and the work-put on them, in producti -n of edible vegetables.. Thisis the ideal time to make your garden,-so get at it without further delay.—Ex. T i t F o r T a t .

WhenSenator Byrd’s committee, designed to inquire into government al set-ups in Washington with aview to recommending such consolidations or eliminations as will permit worth while economies, gets around to the oha»e of personnel, it ought to park for a considerable stay. Here, it would seem at least to the 'aity, is a situation that requires diligent study and investigation, and definite curtailing policies In rather large part, proportionate ly at least, steadily mounting govern mental expenses relatejhemselves to ascending go ernmental pay roils. The total number of government employes at present is 3.400,000, of which one-third are in civil and mili tary service, the remainder in State and local employ. These figures, incidentally, do not include relief workers, government pensions, veterans assistance, and Civilian Conservation Corps mem bers In other w-;rds, the more or less permanent bureaus of the various governments have shown such a mushroom growth that even our rapidly increasing taxation plans can not keep up with the rising costs of governmental functions. In the Federal government alone the number of non-miiitary employes has increased 40 per cent'in two years, the fastest rates of growth being in the Departments of Agri culture, Interior, and -Labor The Departments of Justice and Com merce show some decline^ although comparatively small. Federal gov ernment expenditurehaarisen to a dom inantposition'intotalgoverh^ ment expenditures, coming from: 29 per cent of the total in 1915 to 46 per cent of the total in 1935, with a commensurate decrease , in the pro portion of local expenditures. This monumental increase in per sonnel of workers for the. Federal government and consequent mount ing of the payroll is due. of course, to this expansion of bureaucratic service. It is said that tbe Federal govern ment is now engaged in 250 different kinds of business. So long, therefore, as Federalism is allowed to reach so generally into and over such a vast field of general service these bureaus will likely be continued with their accompanying high pay roll for Federal employes. Elimination of a much as practical and possible of governmental in trusion upon private enterprise is. obviously, one feasible course of action to be^thrown against this form of expensivenessl Bureaucracy is alarmingly costly. —Hharlotte Observer.

SPAHR Secretary, Economists National Coljl- mittee on Monetary Policy and Moih- her of the National Advisory Council of the American Liberty-League:1.: IVhIIe currency Inflation^ Is takfeg place some classes appear to benefit, notably the farmer. For this reason the principal farm leaders are advo cating currency inilation. Drives for currency inflation in this country have been, and are today, to a large extept agrarian movements.- Tlie beneflta-jn the case of the farmer, as with other classes, are apparent and not real They fade into dismal disaster. Several important factors contribute to the relatively favorable position given the farmer by currency Infla tion. The prices of bis products rise rapidly. At tbe same time be tends jp hold his expenses per unit of product down for'a considerable time. He de lays buying' new equipment. He does not add to his Investments In land. Or buildings. He holds down his labor supply. These things give .the farniier an unusual and most welcome margin of profit with which to pay bis debts;'! Accumulates Debts. After these debts are paid, how ever, he will, begin to consider wajps and means of expansion. He will igl- store his depreciated property, buy new equipment, Increase his number employees, and perhaps purchase new buildings and land. When he begins buying he will find that the prices age rising rapidly or have risen to startling heights. To buy before prices rise further will seem prudent The ten dency Jtp borrow In order to'buy will 'tncfease.; 1^ u B ^B f;ii^ tion-Mntlnnas' farm.(debts, will, niount. steadily. .'-(Sn- Tbe 'burden and distress^assoclatid with old debts will be forgotten. Tfie steadily rising prices of agricultural products will appear to provide ample assurance that all is well. The more the currency is Inflated the higher tbe prices will rise and the greater will be ' tbe amount of new debts accumulated. Conditions A fter 1920. Then comes tbe headache. In time the inflation of the currency will come to an end, prices will collapse, and the dangers and burdens of the debts will become painfully apparent Enforced liquidation will begin its destructive course. Distress and suffering will be come widespread. Farmers will realize then that once again they are living through the hard times which invari ably follow an Inflation. . I The difficulties which farmers have experienced since tbe collapse of IMO have been due largely to the credit In flation which took place during the World war and to the related malad justments-which the war and inflation generated. Periods of falling prices and liquidation are almost’Invariably caused by a receding period of cur rency Inflation. - Therefore to urge In- nation as a means of overcoming the distress of depression is but to prepare the way for another period of distress.

Time rolled on and the said scribe or pharisee became indebted to many of his acquaintances and wot not how he would raise the filthy lucre to pay them, so he decided to live a gay life, eat, drink and be merry and let his debtors starve to death Such is life in a country town. The South has been dealt several devastating blows during the past two or three weeks. High waters did much damage to lands and property, while a neavy freeze de stroyed much of the fruit. A num ber of Southern towns and cities, including Concord and Greensboro, In this state, Anderson, S. C., Gains ville, Ga., Tupelo, Miss., Columbus Tenn., and other places, suffered severe losses from tornadoes, in heavy loss of life and property, with thousands wounded. The death toll stands at around 500 , with thirty or forty million dollars loss to prop erty The south has suffered much but our people have not lost hope They will roll up their sleeves and restore the stricken towns and cities to their former beauty, and the sun will shine again after the dark days.

On Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 0 . m., April 8,1936. a group of about 450 farmers gathered at the Court Housein Mocksviile, to hear a gener al discussion on the new Soil Conser vation Prcgranc Mr. Furger3on, District Agent from Raleigh, spoke and gave general information regard ing this new program. This new program is absolutely voluntary. If a person applies for a grant and later wishes to cancel this application it can be done. No pay ment will be made until after it is known through performance that a person has complied in every respect. There positively is no contract bind ing the producer in any way. Unless legislation is enacted in the future there will be no limit to-the amount of cotton or tobacco which may be sold off any farm. However there will be no payment unless there is a reduction of as much as 20 per cent in acreage in all soil depleting crops for the farm and this 20 per cent must be planted to soil conserv ing or soil building crops. Cotton and tobacco ba®e acreages, in; the vast majority'.of cSses.willbe 'the' same base as existed on the' 1934 and 1935' cotton and tobacco cbnK tracts. It should be remembered that the reduction a9ked for is from the base acreage and not from acre age grown in 1934 or 1935. The rate of payment is 5c per pound on the yield per acre times the acre age left out of production in cotton and tobacco. Ttiemaximomacreage ut on which the payment will be made is 35 per cent in cotton and 30 per cent in tobacco acreage taken out of production. A person may reduce less than above mentioned per cents and get payment on the per cent re duced. provided, there is a reduction of 20 per cent from the base in all soil depleting crops. A payment of something over $7.00 per acre will be made for the reduction of soil deplet ing crops other than cotton and to bacco on 15 per cent of the base in such crops A bonus of about $1 00 per acre will be made for acreages in 3oil building crops. As soon as forms are available township meetings will be held to ex plain the program further and the worksheets may be filled out by those interested in cooperating. R. R. SMITH WICK County Agent.

An0JF HITLER'S proposals for Jleare in Europe, together with W flit reaction of the plan of the !,her'wir'l-ooarno Powers for settle- mont of the Rhineland situation, were handed to British Foreign Min ister Edeii by Joachim con Ribbentrop, and passed on by Eden to tlie French and Bel gian am bassadors In I.ondon.

Premier Sarraut and Fweign Jiinister Fiandin were consult- lD„ 0j stops for frustrating the reichs- I fuehrer find preserving a united front ' of the Looarno nations. Hitler's note made these proposals: I A “standstill” agreem ent to exist CU both sides of the German border for ((,nr months during which Germany, ! ptanCe, and Belgium would make no troop ’movements. This “arm istice” would be guaranteed by a neutral com- mission.Z A 25-year nonaggression pact be* Keen Germany, France, and Belgium, guaranteed by an international arbl- , tration court, to be negotiated Imme- diateij after the French elections. 3.

This move, which las the support of Prem ier Mussolini of Italy, was not unexpected, and though it aroused the little entente nations to anger, probably their formal prates will bring no result. The new law Is not likely to bring Sn? great change at present in Aus tria! armaments, for A ustria already had disregarded both the treaty of Si Germain's disarmament provision and its restriction of arm am ents w ith out serious objection from other coun tries. Tanks, forbidden to A ustria un der the treaty, were actually paraded around the Itingstrasse some months a;o under the eyes of foreign mili tary attaches whom she had Invited. • Hungary may now be expected to violate the treaties and renrm, that, too, being a part of Mussolini’s policy.

H itler’s victory was thus extraor dinarily complete, and the N azis cele brated It with wild rejoicings In B erllr and other cities. It was the culmina tion of a three years’ cam paign In which the leaders sought to persuade the population of the relch that only H itler could save the country from great danger. Y X TH ILE a house committee Is delv- v » Ing Into the financial operations of the Townsend plan organization, Its founder, Dr. Francis E. Townsend, an nounced In W ashington a complete re organization of “Old Age Revolving Pensions, Ltd.” The shake-up fol lowed a split between Representative John S. M cGroarty of California, whc has pushed the Townsend plan In the house, and the California doctor. Doc tor Townsend accused M cGroarty of conniving to convert Townsendites In California to the Democratic party. Townsend said that henceforth the movement would be managed by a board and that-he-w ould present to it 90 per cent of the profits of the Town send National Weekly. The national headquarters of the movement will be moved from W ashington to Chicago, which w as chosen for its central loca tion and accessibility. A nother new policy of the movement will be the selection of an auditing firm to regularly audit finances and re port to the directors of each of the Townsend 'clubs. Townsend will rem ain as president. H is board of directors was named as follow s: Gomer Smith, Oklahoma City, vice president; Gilmour Toung, San Francisco, national secretary; Dr. Clin ton W under, New York, J. B. Kiefer, Chicago, Frank Arbuckle, Los Angeles, and N athan J. Roberts, Jacksonville, regional directors; and Alfred W right, Cleveland, Ohio, m anager. LEADERS of both m ajor parties are perfecting the arrangem ents for the national conventions and picking out the chief orators for those occa sions'. The” Republic ans have tentatively selected Frank 0 . Low- den, form er governor of niinots, as tempo rary chairm an and keynoter of the gath ering Io Cleveland. If this choice stands It Is presumed the perm a nent chairm an will be an Easterner, possibly W alter Edge of New F. O. Lowden J erSeyi form er am bas sador and senator. ' Some W estern governor Is w anted by the Dem ocrats as their keynoter and the honor may be given to Paul V. Mc N utt of Indiana, C. Ben Ross of Idaho or Clyde C. H erring of towa. For per m anent chairm an at Philadelphia Sen ator Robinson of A rkansas is likely to be picked; • The speech -putting Presi dent Roosevelt In nom ination for a second term may be delivered by Sen ator W agner of New York. New York Republicans of the Old G uard persuasion scored a decisive victory over Senator Borah In the pri m aries, and the Em pire state delega tion to Cleveland will be unpledged to any candidate. The trium ph of the conservatives was complete. Not only w ere the Borah candidates defeated In nine congressional districts In which they m ade contests, but the organiza tion candidates for delegates defeated independent candidates not pledged to Borah In three other districts. Maine Democrats In their prim ary pledged their ten convention votes to the renomination of Mr. Roosevelt. The Kentucky state Republican con vention instructed the four state dele gates a t large to vote for Gov. Alf Al. Landon of K ansas for the Presidential nomination. This, with previous de velopments, assured Landon of 18 of the state's votes. WILLIAM N. M’NAIR, the Demo cratic mayor of Pittsburgh, ap peared as a w itness before the house ways and means committee aind was al most throw n-out on his ear. Unable to halt M cNair’s biting tirade against w asteful spending on the one hand an d -th e proposed new punitive tax on corporation earnings on the oth er, Chairm an Robert L. Doughton threatened to call a policeman bodily to evict the mayor. "W hy all this dignity?” shouted Mc Nair. “Good night!” A com m ittee clerk brought a Pollce* man to the front of the room as the congressmen quickly passed a motion to excuse the witness. McNair said he would leave "gladly” and departed. r T NABI-E to raise $3,200,000 to re- U deem two bond, issues reaching n.aturity, the province ada, defaulted. Prem ier WJlIinni Aber hart, leader of the Social Credit party, adm itted he could not get the l^ec sary fnnds. In last fall’s election the Social C redit party won a big victory. One of the planks,In Its platformMjd- vocated the paym ent of 5-5 or credit “dividends" m o n th ly to e v e y citizen. None of these dividends has been forthcom ing as yet.

And that’s bad business; K atherine Hepbura proved that. Of course you know how she has been treating Interviewers for these many m oons; just snubbing them right and left.

During the Pennsylvania floods, a free lance cam era man phoned on* of the news reel companies in New York, announcing that he had some good stuff. He was urged to send it right in by train. He 6aid he couldn’t, that no trains were running. The company checked up and found that one would leave that afternoon. Did he have a boat? Yes, he had his boat tied to the window sill. Welt, then, he was to get into that boat and take his film to the railway station. "But I can't," he protested.

BRISBANE THIS WEEK Hear Lloyd George News From the Cosmos Statesmen and Politicians Sloan’s Fine Figures Lloyd George, who raD the big war for Englaod and won with the help Ol old Clemenceau, not sympathetic with France this time, says England i? dangerously in volved and "we shall send our young men to die, this time on Ger man soil, to punish these arrogant and aggressive Teutons for daring to make preparations for the defense of t h e i i own soil against a A rthor Brisbane foreign invader.’* Lloyd George is bitter in his denun ciation of the suggestion that England be dragged into another war. “France,’ says lie, "can spend $500,UU0,000 on the erection of huge fortifications. We cao vote plans which involve expenditure of an extra fifteen hundred million dol lars for protection. But if the Ger mans propose to throw up even a pill box to guard their famous cities anu their greatest industrial area . . . then ‘measures must be concerted* between the general army staffs of Britain and France.” The “fastest” double star is found, and that is the big news. “Twin suns’- close together, in the constellation ol Ophiuchus. revolve completely around each other in twenty months. The shortest period of revolution for any other “binary” star is five years. Somo revolve only once in a hundred years. Nature is both fast and slow; the electron in the atom revolves around the proton thousands of millions oi times In a second. The lens-shaped Milky Way above your head, In which our sun is one of thirty thousand mil lion specks of light, revolves once in 225,000,000 years. No limit to bigness, do limit to smallness, apparently. That naval conference in London ends, quite to the satisfaction of Eng land. with the situatiou about as it was when Hiram Johnson of California put the situation In these few words: "Great Britain builds as she prefers; the United States builds as Great Brit ain permits.” England actually says to the United States, “You must build no more cruis ers with eight-inch guns; we do not like them.” And the United States humbly says, “All right, then we shall Dot build any.” It is the old story: England has statesmen, we have politicians—and some of them are Anglomaniac snobs. Big business, like little business, has had its trouble, but here and there it is still big business. In his annual report for General Motors. Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., reports net sales last year amounting to $1,155.(141.511, against $SG2,G72.G70 the year before; a gain of more than two hundred and ninety-two million dollars. That means many new cars, and families made happier.

National Topics Interpreted by W illiam Bruckart NatlonuT Press Building Washington, WASHINGTON.—Some years ago when Reed Smoot of Dtab was a mem ber of the senate S m o o P a where he enjoyed a P r o p h e c y ionS and meritorious service, he ventured a prophecy. It was this: “The cost of government has in creased every year, and it will con tinue to Increase. I care not what party Is In power, that result will ob tain.” As I recall. Senator Smoot’s state ment was made about eight years ago and it was made at a time when the Republicans, of whom the Utah senator was one, were In control In the sen ate. ' His statement came as a result of an immense amount of jibes that were being hurled at the Republican majority. The Democrats were hav ing a grand time, kidding the Repub licans who were then in complete con trol of the government. Senator Smoot recognized that which few in responsible positions In the government recognized, or If they did recognize the fact, they chose not to admit it Nevertheless, the senator’s statement is true today as it was true when he made it and for many years before. The Smoot prophecy comes to mind now because of the sudden accelera tion ot moves to curtail government expenses, to reorganize the scads of New Deal and emergency agencies, to eliminate overlapping functions among these agencies, and, In general, to put the house of government In order. Two such efforts are underway. One of them was initiated by SenatorHarry F. P.yrd. Virginia Democrat, who suc ceeded in obtaining senate recognition of his charges that there was tre mendous waste, that there were use less agencies and that, in addition, governmental functions were being generally messed up because none ex cept the old-established units of gov ernment knew what they were doing. The Virginia senator obtained adop tion of a resolution providing for a general survey and recommendations for the-clean-up. It was a situation; In which even the most ardent New Deal ers could not find an excuse for object ing to IL So the senator took the lead. Subsequently, President R'ooseveit reached the conclusion that something ouglit to be done In the way of un tangling the tangled skein of govern mental functions so lie proposed a sur vey under his direction. He appointed a committee of so-called experts to go over the problem’ Thus, at the start, at least, it ap pears that the taxpayers are going to- be favored by a break. I think it ought to be added, however, that no one has had the temerity to suggest that either the Byrd survey or that en gineered by Slr. Roosevelt will yield very much. « * • The survey promolpd hy Senator Byrd will dig up a good many IielpfiiI _ . facts but there is D ig U p every reason to he- H e lp fu l F acfsliove that the Vir ginia senator will find many ohstocles placed In his way and that he and his committee will be unable to present any comprehen sive statement on their findings to the country in advance of tiie November elections. The same is true concern ing the survey directed by the Presi dent, only more so. TIie cold fact is that there is no chance at sijl for the President s committee to even approach the stage of making recominendations from their survey until long after the elections are held. Frankly, each of these surveys is permeated with poli tics. so much so that a straightfor ward accounting or general description of the affairs of governm ent will not be allowed to become public property and thereby Iiecome a campaign issue. Of the two. Senator Ityrd’s proposal has the better cliaiire. but that is rather small. Adverting to the Smoof prophecy, it Is therefore of no great importance whether a thoroughgoing examination of the governmental structure that has grown up in the last three years under President Iioosevelt is made In ad vance of the elections. These New Deal agencies have heen created and these New Deal agencies, like many of the “Old Deal” agencies, are with us to stay and suck up taxpayers’ money for quite some time I need only remind you that we still have In existence the War Finance corpora tion and the railroad administration that were created as war-time agen cies, not to mention a dozen other similar units. It Is possible. Indeed. I think' It Is probable, that there will he a trimming of pay rolls In many of the New Deal agencies immediately after election There certainly ought to he Important curtailment of expenses and of the !an, ?! e ",nl"-veps' hl,t accomplishing that Is a matter much more easily dp. scribed tlmn done. So. I feel safe In saying that all of this ado about a re duction In governmental swellin" amounts to nothing more than just ado" • • • In making ihe sSAlemem above that the outcry about reducing ,he government N e w D e n l Olily ro11 aud lln<«ng-c . . n .

FLAME IN THE FOREST By HAROLD TITUS Illustrations by Irwin Myers Copyright by Harold Titus.- WNU Service. C H A P T E R X II— C o n tin u ed — 13— “West kills Downer and caches away the money. Ouly just now, he's dared Jo nse a little of it. some that he didn’t £now could be identified. W hen the first of it showed up, on the same night I happened to hit the Landing, Ezra came to me and let me in on it. I’ve 6eyn busy ever since.” Kapidly he narrated what they had lbarned and suspected; what they had fonnd today; his encounter with Blue- Jay and the very obvious fact that his errn arrest had been maile on Tod !Vest’s suggestion. “You see, he had a double motive with you. Likely lie, too, thinks that Kan . . . well, likes you a lot. He wants yon out of the way. You were in a Bad spot the night of Downer’s mur der; he plants the box with just a lit tle money, gets Bluejay ready to swear Io this story of his and figures that’ll dispose of yon. “Me, though; he figured he’d better hire me killed and he missed by about * hair. The next best thing Is to keep me behind bars as long as he can be- rause fce knows damned well neither Ezra nor I fell for the Bluejay He about you and that cash box. “Here we are: the two of us In jail, something over twelve thousand dol lars still missing and W est on the loose. “Did you notice that W est’s head and neck were swollen up? Tou did? Am I crazy, or did I hear somebody say he’d been stung by a liornet?” “That's w hat he told I" Stuart was trembling, infected by Young’s In tensity. “Check! That’s no hornet sting. That's bee sting. He’s been fooling around bees somewhere; he gets stung and gets all daubed up with honey be cause there’s honey on the box and ioney on the crowbar he used In mak ing the plant!” “The bell you sa y !” “F a c t! Do you know anybody that Keeps bees?” - - “Bees? There Isn’t a hive of ’em In t t e ' county, I know all these settlers and—" “B ut there are wild bees In the w oods.. . . Oh G od!” he muttered, ris ing and slapping a hand to his head. “Why the devil won’t a mao’s brain work when he needs It most? . . . Boney and m oney! Money and honey! “We should be out of here tonight, M there isn’t a chance. And control ling county politics as he does, you can Set W est’ll see to It neither one of us gets loose In a hurry. . . . Money and Soney. . . . Holt, the thing's Just too damned hot to let drop.. . . How in the aam e of high heaven can we get out • f here?” H e swung out of the cell and tiptoed to the window before wbich he had stood. The heavy bars were- set In stone. Even with a hack saw, It would take hours to cut through. . . , Back he ran to the panel of steel which made the front of their prison. Bara, heavy and thick, ran from ceiling to floor; the lower ends were set In a «teel plate; the plate was held to the concrete floor by heavy lag screws, square headed, solid. . . . On his knees he felt along that plate. “Lord, here’s a short section of it!” #e whispered. . . . “Look; the thing’s to three sections,”—running his hands up the bars. “This .door and its steel fram e Is one . . . And one, two, four - . .. seven ,lag screws hold it to the floor. W ith those o u t. . .” “But how?” H olt whispered, voice shaking, now. “How the devil ’d y o u get ’em out? W here’d you find a wrench?” “W rench? . . . W r . . . Why , . . E n g Christopher! Holt, on the way Bi. d’you hear—” H e gripped the other's arm so tlght- Jjr that the boy winced. H e strained to listen and put his lips close to Stuart’s «ir. “Stand here and If anybody comes talk or whistle or sin g :. . . W histle if 7®o too! - For the love of God, walk l'P and down and whistle. . . . No, never xnnd why. . . . Let me alone . . . I'm 7:oing to- try to pull a fast one. . . . Hot any string? Search yourself! Or * shoe String’S do. . . . Yes! Get one M t . . . And' cover me up, boy, if you ire r did anything in all your life!” Ducking into a cell he felt along IS^base-Of the brick wall, scraping up fragments of plaster. W ith these, he c e n t quickly to- the rear window and peered'down. T ip lay there, still pant- iag from his long, hard run. * “Hi; chum !"—cautiously. The dog n e e and stood looking upward, tall imsy. "Tip, fetch!” On the command K erry tossed a bit *f plaster toward the car. T he retriever w ent out with a great Aoond, running in short circles, snuf fing, looking up, whining. “Fetch!” Again he tossed a frag ment: and it struck the fender. . W ith the sound. Tip whirled, bound ed toward the-car, pawed a t the ground and picked! up. the plaster In his mouth, U ottlns back to bis place below the window; ■Give! Now . . . fetch again! In the car, boy, in the c a r!” Behind him. H olt Stuart was pacing and whistling lowly, raggedly; not a musical w histle; a rather dry and husky one, to be sure, but still, it was sound........... •Mystified, Tip trotted out to where he had found the plaster and sniffed and pawed, looked back, trotted around the car, stopped and lifted his nose high, drinking in scent from the seat. “R ight! Good dog! Up. now! Fetch. Lightly, the dog leaped within, bunt ing the half opened door wide. He in vestigated at length, smelling here and there, pawing, and then, on a blanket which spread across the cushion, he found his m aster's scent and immedi ately began tugging at it stoutly. “No! Not that! Not the robe!” foung moved his feet up and down to relieve the nervous tension which racked his body. “Stay there. . . . And fetch. . . . Fetch, old tim er!" Tip abandoned the rug. More snuf fling, more pawing, and then he came trotting toward the jail wall, a limp glove In his jaws. “Fine! Give. . . . That’s a boy! And fetch again!" He turned and beckoned Stuart closer with a jerk of his head. “W orking line! Get a blanket and cut It into strips, about so wide,"— measuring with thumb and finger. “And keep whistling! For the love of God don’t stop whistling! It means more to ns than you’ll ever realize.” And now Tip was fetching a tire Iron and next he brought a pair of pliers, handling the metal gingerly, head bent far to one side as the grip necessary to holding them hurt his teeth. As he deposited each against the wall he looked up and threshed his tail and panted. “Fetch!” whispered Young harsjily. “Clean her out! Bound to be a wrench !" But it was an S wrench and then the' other glove and a screw driver; next a jack handle and then . . . Young was laughing excitedly as he waved an arm wildly for Holt because Tip was advancing, a monkey wrench held gingerly from the side of his mouth. “Good dog! T ak e! . . . Hold it, now ! Steady. . . ." “How’s that?” m uttered Stuart, thrusting the rope made of a ripped blanket into K erry’s hands. “W histle! . . . Stay by the door and w histle!” H e scanned the darkness beyond the lighted area anxiously. Any passer, seeing the dog, could upset his plan. And N at Bridger might have his vanity satiated by now by the gang at tbe poof room. Time was precious. The blanket rope was long enough. H e bent the shoe lace to it and made In It a running loop. Tben cautiously he thrust the string through the bars and carefully paid out the strands of woolen; : Tip stood there obediently, wrench In his jaw s, rolling his eyes toward that descending noose. It swung and sw ayed; the loop touched the dog's head, dangled near the wrench and . . . then closed of its own w eight! W ith a m uttered curse, K erry jerked it upward again, Improved the knot and tried once more. Thrice and a fourth time he was forced to open the loop before it- finally .swung over the end of the wrench. Then, holding his breath, he drew it taut and with a muttered, “Give!” swung the wrench free. It touched the w all with a dull clink; it cam e up and he drew a great gasp of night air as his hand, thrust between the bars, closed upon it. . How they worked on those tightly- set lag screw s! On their knees, close together, ready to throw themselves back into the cells at the first alarm ing sound, they toiled. Two of the seven came easily. Two more yielded to their combined strengths. The fifth and the sixth finally moved but the seventh . . . Ah, that seventh! W ith Stuart’s hands gripped over K erry’s they put their weights on the wrench handle until Young thought the flesh would roll from his palms. They sweated and panted and cursed In whispers and then, w ithout warning, it gave, letting go so suddenly that K erry lunged noisily against the cell bars. ' AnU on that sound 'cam e' another; steps approaching; feet at the entry and they scuttled fd t their cells. “Any calls, Ma?” It was Bridger’s voice and a woman answered from somewhere. H e came on and peered through the door, trying the lock. Young held his lungs flat for fear the whole panel would move. “You boys all right?” he asked. “W hat d’you mean, all right?” Stuart growled. The sheriff laughed and turned away. For an hour, then, , they lay still and not jintll a -muffled, : regular snoring heralded the fact th a t rest had come to the county’s servant did they, leave their cots. It w as the work of a m ere moment to remove the last screw and, with his shoulder to the panel. Young shoved carefully. The bottom plate grated on. tbe con crete, gave, squeaked a trifle and then . . . cwuDg free ! A man could roll be neath It to the jail corridor and be on his way. B u t1 he let it swing back and crouched there on- the floor listening. Abruptly, he said: “A fter I’m gone, you set the screws backhand cover the heads w ith dust.” Stuart looked at him blankly. “You mean . . . T hat is . . . You're going alone?” “Listen, chum! It’s tough, I know. B ut you’re in as a m urder suspect Breaking jail would be damned serious for you. W ith me, It’s a lesser offense. And, besides that, we’ll need informa tion about Bridger’s plans, perhaps." T hat was not his reason, his real reason. Good enough, to be sure; but knowing Stuart for a hot-headed, im pulsive boy, he did not dare-risk liber ating him now, when so much and such careful, patient work lay before him. “Hell, Young! I hadn’t figured—” “B ut I had. I know just w hat’s got to be done, outside. Can’t you see that maybe you’ll be . . . you’ll be helping Nan by sticking here and keeping your eyes and ears open?” “Of course, if you put It that way ♦» His consent was not without reluc tance. K erry rolled beneath the out-swung panel. “Good,,luck!” They gripped hands through Ihe bars. “Tell N at the fairies came for m e.. . . And when you’ve got the screws back, duck that wrench down the sewer.” And silently he made his way Into the sheriff’s office, down tbe side steps aad with a low w histle to Tip, leaped Into the car standing ready. He opened the choke wide, stopped on the starter and the motor caught and drummed. Then, quickly, he slipped in the clutch and turned down the jail drive to the street. Once there he looked over his shoul der. Llglits showed above two en trances to the jail but windows of the sheriff’s living quarters showed blank. N at B ridger was deep in dream s of continued grandeur while a prisoner used his car for escape and as K erry bounced across the railroad tracks, leaving even the outskirts of town be hind, and headed for the Mad Woman he beat Tip's libs resoundingly with one ha nd and laughed until tbe mus cles of his belly ached. CHAPTER X III Jim H inkle had not slept. Too much had happened at N an’s headquarters and too much speculation had gone on a t the Landing th at 'Dight to let his senses sink into unconsciousness. Be sides, he’ had had Tod W est to watch, until W est took to his bed. H e had promised Young he would watch W est's every move and was doing his best to make bis word good. So when th a t light rapping ;came on his door he w as out of bed with a stealthy bound. “Young, Jim ,” came the cautious whisper In answ er to his query. “Come out here!" “My God, Young, how’d you—” “Never mind anything now, Jim. W here’s W est?” “Asleep,” — peering tow ard Tod’s house. “I w atched until long after he’d gone to bed. He come to th’ store pret’ well tanked up, I'd say. T hat w as ’n hour after they took you to town. He seemed more like his old self 'n he has for a long time. He laughed ’nd ^vM ted.'nd then^Went^home. I watched througli his window 'nd saw him 'hittin’ a bottle right hard. Then he went to bed.” “One other Item about W est. W here was he yesterday? Friday?” “T hat’s somethin’ I dunno. AU day Thursday he hung here. I seen him talk to B luejay In the evenin’ ’nd—” “C heck!” “—he turned In right after th a t Fri day he made a lot of fuss about goin* fishin’. H e drove to Blg Beaver ’nd set up his rod ’nd got ready to flsh, but he didn’t fish! H e cached his rod under a ‘ log ’nd lilt out. I follered far’s I could but lost his trail, It bein’ so dry that—” “W hich w a y ’d he go?’’ “N orth ’nd west.” “T hat checks, too. And when he came back to town, w hat?” “All puffed up. Said a hornet’d stung him.” “Fine!” whispered Kerry. “T hat all ties In. “That’s enough of W est I’ve got to talk fast. Back down the road half a mile you’ll find N at Bridger’s car—” “Ngt’s !’’ v “Ygah. It . . . It helped speed his departing guest !’’—chuckling. “I don’t w ant him to know w hat direction I hit, of course. I w ant you to drive his bus back to Shoestring, cut east on the trunk line highway, go as far as you can w ithout making too much of a ‘walk for yourself, let the air out of a tire and leave I t” “B ut w hat are you goln’ to do, Kerry?” “Going bee hunting." "Bee luintin’I” The man’s Incredu lity was explosive. “W hat do you w ant of—” "I don’t know. That’s the devil of it ! I’m on my way. You get back, fast as you can, and stand by to watch Tod.” “My gosh, Kerry, I don’t under stand—” t' “And neither do I maybe. Good night!” A t Nan’s, Young also encountered sleeplessness. H e could see the girl and old Ezra sitting-,together in : tbe light of a single lamp and from the doorway he hailed them cautiously. “Careful, now !’’ he warned as their amazement became articulate. “I don’t want to be seen.” Omitting all detail, he told what had happened. T hen: “Money and honey, E zra! There’s a hook-up somewhere; they tie in. I’m on my way to try to wrangle It out. I w ant some stuff from the kitchen and the men’s shanty, Nan.” Hls eyes had been fast on her face as he talked, rapidly and lowly. Its o.val seemed, more sweet and gentle than ever. He w anted to touch her, to take her hands, to draw her d o s e and say the things that were surging In his heart, of far more consequence than the things he let his lips say. B dt he put the Impulse back. They followed Into the darkened kitchen and he searched' for w hat he needed: a small, fibre cracker box, a tumbler, a ja r of strained honey. “Get me a quart bottle, please. Nan. Fill it two thirds of honey and finish with w ater; warm', if you’ve got it. I’ll need a pack sack and some staff from the shanty.” He was back in a moment, sack on his shoulder, rifle In his hand and quickly stowed aw ay the other articles. “Ezra, we’ve got to keep B ridger as far in the dark as we hope we can keep West. We didn’t dare trust N at w ith the bullet identification; no more can we on the finger prints. You’ll find Jim H inkle home by the middle of the forenoon,, anyhow. My suggestion is that you w rite a telegram and send him out with it; aw ay out; I wouldn’t even trust the Shoestring operator. Get the state police in here as fast as they can come and untt'l they are on the job you sit on the stuff we brought In last eve ning and don’t let a soul near it, much less touch it. Am I right?’’. . “Right as ra in ! I’d wondered w hat to do and this is i t !" He turned to Nan, then, and his strained excitem ent subsided. He looked down at her, smiling in the faint light. She was more appealing, more desir able than ever . . . and H olt Stuart’s words, with all their incredible impli cations, cam e back to him. He felt suddenly humble. ■ “There are so many things to say to you, Nan,” he said gravely and saw her eyes drop at the quality of his tone. Kzra noted it too, likely, and Shs Looked Up Almost Tim W y and Gave Him H er Hands. moved softly away. B ut Young did not follow through. “Tonight, though, there’s only one thing for us to think about, to work and hope and pray for: that is to reach the end of this trail we’re on. A fter th a t. . . ” She^loofced u p a lm o st,-tin; Idly and gave- him1 her hands. H e:'stooped on quick Impulse, and pressed them to his lips. Then he went hastily o u t W ith Tip a t his heels he disappeared in the n ig h t taking the road he had traveled thrice yesterday, once on foot aad tw ice in Ezra’s c ar; tbe road w here he had seen bees w orking In. wild bloom .. . . An early northern dawn w as already dimming the stars when he reached the place. H e w as drenched to the hips with the dew that clung to the grasses. H e .spifead his one: blanket and, rifle against his side, Tip’s warm body for a pillow, slouch hat over his' eyes, snug gled down for w hat sleep he m ight have. A vireo w as already singing but he dropped oft and it w as the sun on his cheek two hours later which wak ened him. Firevyeed grew all abo.ut, ,rank • and tall, with its light m agenta blossoms drooping and a-glisten with dew ; drops of dew that gleamed like jew els In the slanting sunlight The sky w as cloud less, the morning very still and he m ut tered a word of thanks for that. A fire of dry cedar tw igs which threw little smoke made his breakfast tea and broiled his bacon. As he ate, he watched the flowers begin to nod gracefully under the slightest of breezes, saw the dew disappearing from them, saw the petals spreading wide. As soon as he had eaten he took the cracker box from his sack and cut a hole an inch square In the cover. H e smoked his pipe thereafter and- w aited, listening, looking, the dog sit ting before him w ith a puzzled -expres sion, stirring now and again and whin ing lowly and licking his chops and gaping. A fter all th at had happened yesterday and last night. Tip appeared to be thinking, this w as a devil of a way to start the morning! ltH a! . H ererWe are!” Young was on his ifeet, then, bending over a blossom th at sagged slightly under the weight of a bee. Busily the striped insect explored that flower and crawled to another and still a ' third and finally, locating w hat he wanted, squeezed his head and fore parts Into the petal fringed nectar cup. “Shove ’em, old feller!” K erry chuck led as the hind legs braced and the bee tw isted and strained m ightily to get nearer ,the precious product of the bloom. “If a bee can grunt, Tip he's grunting! Look at him work !*’ H e shook the bottie of diluted honey and poured some tfarefully inside his box. ThM1 holding the open receptacle beneath the working bee, he struck the spike sm artly, knocking him free,' down W fclace and claPPed the cover W ith his hat, he covered the top and w aited, squatting, w hile the bee buzzed within, bumping sides and top and bot tom, angered and frightened at thl« strange, dark Ijuprisonm ent ' T h ! buzzing was constant for an Interval• then stopped . . . began again- halfJ* . . . hesitated and w as still “Found i t !” he chuckled.

GOLDEN TEXT—Like as 'a father pltieth his children, so the Lord pitleth them that fear him.—Psalm 103:13. PRIMARY TOPIC—A Boy’s Good Fa ther. JUNIOR TOPIC—Welcome Home. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-W hat Is God Like? TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPiC—God’s Forgiving Love. The center of Interest In this par able Is not the prodigal nor his broth er, but the “certain m an who had two sons.” In this parable, in a m ost pic turesque and dram atic manner, the history of m an is portrayed from his fall to his reconciliation w ith God. The whole orbit of revelation Is sw ept as it pertains to a sinning race and a pardoning God. H e who fails to see the heart of our F ather God w ill m iss tbe purpose of the parable. It 9honld be understood and taught not as a piece of far-off ancient history, but as a portrayal of modern conditions. - I. The Son’s Insubordination (v. 12). There is every indication th a t this was a happy home, but a devil entered It and stirred up discontent In the heart of the younger son. H e became tired of the restraints of home. H is desire for freedom moved him w ilfully to choose to leave home to throw oft the constraints of a father’s rule. Sin Is the desire to be free from the re straints of rightful authority and is selfish indulgence It starts out w ith wrong thoughts about God. II. The Son’s D eparture (v. 13). H aving.m ade th e fatal decision, he went posthaste to the enjoym ent of his cherished vision. H e, therefore, got' his- goods In portable shape and w ithdrew from his father’s presence. Adam and Kve, a fter they had sinned, hid themselves. The son could not stand the presence of his father, so he hastened away. W hen the sinner casts off allegiance to God, he takes all th a t he has w ith him. III. The Son's D egeneration (vv. 13, 14). H e had his good tim e while his mon ey lasted, but the end cam e quickly. Indications are th at b is course w as soon run. From plenty in his father’s ^house to destitution in th e fa r coun- -try:,w as !,s h o rt journey,.,. The sinner comes 'to 're a liz e the “fam ine” when the very pow ers which m inistered - to his pleasure a re burned o u t IV. T he Son's D egradation (w . 15, 16). H is friends lasted only w hile he had money. W hen his money w as ail gone he w a9 driven to hire out to a citizen to feed swine. I t w as indeed a change from a son In his father’s house to feeding sw ine In a fa r country. It Is ever so that those who will not serve God are m ade slaves to the DeylI (Rom. 6:16). This vividly portrays the ‘.story of many" men and women about us, and Is a picture of the inevitable consequences of sin. V. The Son’s R estoration (w . 17- 24). 1. H e “cam e to him self” (v. 17). W hen he reflected a bit he w as m ade conscious that though, he had wronged 'liis'fa th e r and ruined himself, yet be w as a son of his father. ' In the days o f his sinning he w as beside himself. The sinner continues in sin because he Is insane. The w orld calls the sinner w ho leaves off his evil w ays crazy, but In reality he has ju st become sane: If sinners could be induced to think seriously of, their condition, it would be easy to get them to turn from their sins. 2. H is resolution (v. IS). H is re flection ripened Into resolution. The picture of his home, w here even the hired servants had a superabundance, moved him to m ake decision to leave the fa r country and go home. 3. His confession (vv. 18,19). H e ac knowledged th a t'his sin w as against heaven and Ws father, th a t he had forfeited his rights to be called a son, and begged to be given a place as a hired serv an t 4. H is actio# (v. 20 ). Kesolutfon will not avail unless accompanied w ith action. W hen the confession is genu ine, action will follow. 5. H is reception by his father (w . 20-24). The father had not forgotten his son. No doubt during these years he longed for the son’s return. H e m ust often have looked for him, for he beheld him when he w as a great way off. So axious w as he for hi-n that he ran to m eet him and fell upon his neck and kissed him. So glad w as tbe father tb a t he even did not hear the son’s confession through, but5 or dered the tokens of fccfler to be placed upon him, receiving him back into a son’s position. Then the feast w as made, expressive of the joy of his heart. God Is love; Jesus cam e to reveal God. This parable lays bare God’s h e a r t.

T hat s:aple commodity, cheese, Is an ever-present aid In planning mea 13 ror the Lenten season—and for meals the year-around. Known for centuries as the perfect Lenten food cheese has a w a i of transform ing ordinary dishes. Sharp American or ‘‘Old English” cheese can be included (n so many interest ing ways In late w inter menus that well-stocked pantry shelves shouldIfiarDor a generous supply. The combination of fish with cheese is ideal for the sea- son—and a happy pair to satisfy w inter-whetted appetites. One of the most delicious of these is well-named, “Cheese and Crab Delight.* It Is attractive enough to serve as the principal attraction for a party luncheon, and substan tial enough to form the main dish for a family dinner. A molten cheese sauce provides just" the proper setting for delicately flavored crabm eat— and tUe resulting delicacy Is as pleasant to the eye as it is to the appetite.

Billy Sunday on Card Parties. “ I have just as much respect tor the old gambler who will bet his lastsou as for the woman who will sit a.round in their homes and play cards for prizes. They are just as much degenerate, blackleg as the gambler in the gambling hell, They ought to be put ^in tbe calaboose with the rest of the gamblers. " I believe tbat cards]and dancing are doing more to damn the spiri tual life of the Church than the grog shops. Though you can’t ac cuse me of being a friend to that stinking, dirty, rotten, hell soaked business. “I believe more people backslide on account of the social side than the saioon. “ A seemingly estimable woman will tear and snort and pout thru an afternoon, what for? I mean the diamond wearing bunch; the automobile gang; the silk gowned —that’s the bunch. _rSo she can take home a dinky cream pitcher or a whiskbroom. "A woman who will will play bridge, whist is no better than a man who will go out and play poker, and the man who comes home with a pocket full Of money won at a poker game is no worse than his wife who has been play ing auction or 500 all evening for a nice cut glass dish in which to keep the bouquets that are sent to her by church going friends. “ In a town where I was preach ing they bad all the parties to get~ them off their hands before I came. They had a big affair, and the prize was a $20 cut glass dish, and lied and cheated.and took progressions which she didn’t win, and then she lost the dish by two points She was short on Paul and long on Hoyle. She was sick in bed for two days.” . Balance The Budget. Ask any business man, investor, property owner or thinking worker wbat is the most needed to give the nation the confidence the spirit and the optimism that wili break depres sion. You might get the same answer from each: ''Tax^reduction1 plus a determined policy that will balance the budget as soon as possible, and gradually reduce and eventually eliminate the vast national debt.” Real, permanent and sound re covery cannot arrive as long as in dustry faces the prospect of confisca tory taxes that wiil seize whatever profits it is able to make. We can not have, a wave of home building as long as our citizens realize tbat increasing taxes may soon make it impossible for them to keep their property. We cannot have re em ployment of the jobless so long as investors are afraid to put their mon ey into productive enterprises—be cause rising taxes imperil both prin cipal and income. The national debt is approaching the $3 5 ,0 0 0 ,00 0 ,000 mark. Hun dreds of millions of dollars a vear are required for sinking funds With which to pay off the bonds when they fall due. Long after the mon ey has been spent, and the things it bought have disappeared we and our children will be paying the bill. T h e fe d e ra l government has at tempted to ‘‘spend us back to pros peritv.” In the view of many un biased commentators we would have gone a long way farther toward re covery had spending been held down—in other words, the Rovern ment’s,policy, in their belief, as hindered and not helped the nation. Yet more spending is in pr°spec • Business wants tax reduction n vestors and workers want tax re duction. Unless it is achieved, the nation’s future is in ^be balance. LaGrauge Geofgia Daily News. .

' f Bechtler Gold CoinsfJ The only privately, owned mint ever to have been run in this county was operated at one time in Ruther ford county and attention to the coin age of gold by the Bechtler family is called to mind in the current issue of The State Magazine of Raleigh. The Star personally knows Am brose Bechtler who lives in tbe lower part of Cleveland near Earl, He is perhaps the only descendant of this famous family of goldsmiths living in Cleveland county. In 1880, Christopher Bechtler and his son, Augustus, skilled German metallurgists, came to this country and settled in Rutherford county. At that time the only government mint was in Pniladelphia, too great a distance and too hazardous a journey to be undertaken by mountaineers. Rutherfordat that time was in the center of the United States gold mining area Trading was largely a matter of barter. Some gola dust was used as a medium of exchange, so being experienced in metal work, Christopher Bechtler secured per mission from the government, be cause of bis accurate assays, to begin coining gold. Hiscoins were made in denominations of $1.00, $2.50 and $5.00 and bore his name. Little or no alloy was used in the Beehtler coins, so today these coins range in value from $5 to $100. • _ Quite a number of ol Ier people in this section have Bechtler. coins in their possession and prize them very highly. A few coins of his vintage are in musems. while oth.rs are widely scattered, throughout the na tion. The press the Bechtlers used in the coinage of two and a quarter million dollars in gold, is on display in the Hall of Numismatic History in New York while'the North Carolina Hall of History contains some of the dies used. Rutherford still has gotd under its ground and much prospecting has been done within the last two years as a consequedce of the .advance in price, but Rutherford.no longer re mains the gold region of the United States. -• This bit of history has often been published but is worth referring to again for the sak^.of young people of today many of whom are descend- ants bf those earlv settlers who used Bechtier coins as their only medium of exchange.—Cleveland Star. We are thoroughly in favor of farm relief bv the- government but at the sam e time intelligent farmers should realize thatvwhat the gov ernment does is drily a small part Ot the solution to:. tlie troubles of agriculture, " / ■ An Autum Fiood. Just at this time when we are hear ing charges galore of politics in the ^ PA (Works Political Administra tion) and Senator Holt, Democrat, of West Virginia seems to be on the war path over the relief machinery activity in West Virginia, we are in formed tbat the AAA is to begin the distribution of benefit checks to farmers cooperating with the Ad ministration’s farm program in the month of September, just two months before the presidential elec tion. The distrihution will doubtles; of necessity continue for some weeks, probably nearly up to the first Tues day after the first Monday in Nov ember. The news of the beginning of this relief distribution came from the hearings of a Hcuse Appropriations Committee. It seems to have made some of the “suspicious” Republi can Congressmen even a little mocf suspicious and to have called for the question whether it was “merely a coincidence” tbat benefits payments to farmers under the old dispensa- jt m were “heaviest” in October, p934, just a few weeks before the congressional election. , !/ Chester C. Davis, of the AAA ad ministration vigorously denied that Ihere had ever been any idea on' the •part of the agricultural New Dealers to influence tbe election in their fa- |or. Butiftheheavy payments in October, 1934, were a coincidence, it isj.very likely that we will have an other.such coincidence in October of this year. And then, if tbe New Era Mould continue- for another two •years, it is likely that the heavy flow JjjfM^eeks' in Octoberi 1938, would prove that a series bf' coincidence had developed into a habit. Commenting on the time of bene fit.payments to farmers, House Re publican Leader Snell, of New York, said: “It is mighty funny that the only time they can find to pay out this money is a month or six weeks be fore elections. “And in addition, in looking over the printed hearings, it doesn’t seem to me that they have any more pro gram in mind, or anything more de finite than they had before the ori ginal AAA. They don’t know how many acres will be retired, how much will be paid per acre. They don’t know anything definite except that they are gbing to pay out a lot of checks before election.” Davis, testifying before the House Committee, said that between 30,- 000.000 and 40,000,000 will be con verted into soil building purposes, but added tbat it Is impossible yet to give out “precisely the basis for pay ments.” However, even if the basis for pav. orients.” However, even if the basjs for pay ments isn’t fixed, the time is. and that means that the agricultural checks will be in the mails in-a re gular flood tide of federal payments just a week or so before the election, at a time when they ought to do the most good for the Organization, if not for the farmers. — Union Re publican. ' _____ Attention: American American wives, enjoying a free dom that ; sometimes amazes visitors from other sections of the globe, might be interested in the story of 'a young and beautiful woman re centlv found chained to the wall of a room in a farmhouse in ’’Czecho slovakia. Investigation bv the police dis closed that fatters around both ankles were, connected by a long chain to staples in the wall and that a fierce dog on the outside prevented strangers from entering. Also it was discovered that this was the'method adopted by her . jealous husband to keen her safe. - Now comes the point of the.story for American wives. The young lady told.tbe police that she did not object to the arrangement so long as it pleased^her husband and that she did not object'to. the/ arrange- ment so lOng-asut pleased her bus. band and lbatsbe was quite happy. 18 Indicted For Maine FERA Graft. The Washington Merry-Go-Round <ays there is a lot of deep politics be hind the headlines which flared in Maine proclaiming:' “ Eighteen In iicted for FERA Graft.”' ?And it may cause the Barometer Ytate to slip through Jim FarlevV wgera next September, despite a'l rhe money spent at Passamaquoddy Stories of relief graft have been ife in Maine for some time. They . nvolved payments of $100 bills wrap- red in beefsteaks, paid by grateful neat packers for bjg relief orders. Nothing was done until James E Cmnel I an. Maine director of tbe National Emergency council, stepped in. He uncovered the graft, secured the indictments, and also pointed to che fact tbat the man responsible for appointing the alleged grafters was Governor Louis J. Brann. Governor Brann, a democrat, im mediately protested to James A. Farley. N >w there is one thing which James \ Farley" wants almost more than anything else next fall, and that is to iar.ry the state of Maine. He thinks it will have a phycholngical effect or the nation that would be certain to •lect Roosevelt in November. Farley also considers Governar Brarn essential to a Democratic victory in Maine Heentertains this idea despite the fact tbat Brann has been co-operating closply with Guy P. Gannett, a Maine Republican lead er, whose wife is a member of the Republican national committee. So when Farley, received the pro test from-Brann. he - picked- up~ bif' telephone and called Lyle T. Alverson lirector of the na.ional emergency •ouncil and boss of Connellan. .Alverson immediately wrote a let er asking for the resignation of Cnn- nellan, the man wh. exposed tht graft on the part of Brarm’s appoin tees. Roosevelt Held Not A Democrat. The Democratic convention, which vas held at Macon, Ga., went on record in these words: We do not regard the occupant of che White House as a democrat. He has broken the pledge of our party and violated the platform of 1932. We here today reaffirm our faith in that doctrine. ' The occupant of tbe White House has abandoned faith in the constitu' tion and sec up a bewildering bureau cracy which is neither sane in its economic practices nor serviceable in performing the duties of the charac ter of government established for us We believe in the. American system which providesTor a division of the powers of government between state and federal jurisdiction and tbe di vision of federal powers in three branches—legislative, executive and judicial. We condemn the usurpation of tbe law making power by tbe president as a violation of our rights as guaran. teed under the constitution.—Ex. More Politics. President Roosevelt a few days ago issued and order closing about one third of the 2.158 Sapling Army camps scatted throughout the country and immediately a howl arose from the Democratic Congress who are up for re election this year. Tbe stoppage of this graft would have thrown approximately 140,000 of these soldiers out of their jobs, would have been a serious -setback to the towns near where these camps were located and In general would have played havoc when this governftient graff was. abolished.

New Deal Foe’ Competition With Private Enterprise Holds Up Employment. 'j Numerous statem ents made by busi ness arid financial leaders ot tbe coun try have called attention recently to the fact that the government is com peting with private .enterprises on/ri large scale. It is the.opiniqn of sofne , of these com m entators th a t this com-, petition is responsible In lrirge meae- sure for continned widespread unem ploym ent 5 . Orrin G. Wood, president of the In vestment Bankers Association ' of America, speaking of progress made tow ard recovery In 1935, sriid: “Yet certain governmental poUclqit ended, would prove a great, stim ulus to business and employment. One is the cessation of government compe tition In the field of business^ enter prise. Such competition can never u’e on a fair basis and m ust necessarily Impair business confidence if increased and continued.” - The Amazing FSCC. One of .the most amazing of tbe or ganizations created by the.N ew Deal Is the Federal Surplus CpmmodltlM Corporation. It Is one of five corpora tions fojmed In Delaware, financed by government money but operated pri vately. The corporation was Intended to handle surplus agricultural prod ucts. W hat will become of It In view of the Supreme court’s annihilation .of the AAA Is’ questionable. The corporation Is empowered to enr gage in extensive banking operations,’ It is authorized to purchase and. sriU all Sorts of agricultural commodities; And-40 /..ehgage /In -any-, activities -In connection .w [th. production, shipping; storing, exporting, warehousing, han dling, preparing/ m anufacturing, prric- essing and m arketing of both agricul tural and other comtnoditles and prod ucts thereof. This Socialistic-federal concern need make no reports to Con gress. The Home Owners Loan Corpora tion has indicated that Its lending activities will be ended by April I. It will then have loaned $3,000,000,000 on which it has acquired an interest In 1,000,000 homes. The corporation is now engaged In collecting' interest and principal paym ents from dtlz,en debtors. Payments are running about 80 per cent, Indicating that U nde Sam will soon find himself deep.in.the oc cupation of m anaging real estate. • FCA Threatens Bank Loans. The Farm Credit Administration, is speeding up, threatening to leave little for the. private bankers in tbe field of loans to farm ers. The Reconstruction Finance C orporation. is turnirig Jto railroad-loans. I’WA loans to munici palities have slowed up under court attacks. / The W ork-Itelief program, now a t its peak, lias aroused the lire of busi ness In various areas because of Ita interference with . hours, wages arid other conditions of private enterprise. Seeing D ocbte s-i In 1928, during the Hoover-SmUh campaign, Senator Joe Robinson majie a speech a t W ichita; KariT, In which he said: “Here is a most human, af fectionate, wise and great man whose sincerity has riever been questioned:” In his radio speech In January, 1936, Uncle Joe attacked Smith as a “high h a t” / ‘Somehow,” said Joe, “I thlrik there m ust be two Al Smiths.” Llf Uncle Joe would .'take a look around he might find two Joe Robinsons. Taxpayer’s Lucb A taxpayer w rites that he had put $600 In taxes into the New Deal slot machine In. the last three years and all he ever got back was a copy of tbe Roosevelt 1932 platform ,'and a card which told his fortune. On the card vas printed: “Your government Ss rijf- coaching a balariced budget.” '; The Price of Relief, k In an address in New York city Roger Babson, statistician, said, in part: ‘ Every two workers are support ing one idle worker. In spite i6f the highest taxes in our history; the nation is goingyjnto tlpe holejht the rate of $281,000,000 per monijb; or $66,000,000 per week, or $6,500 per minute.” . i 'J- The world is packed and jammed with people anxious to get more than they are will to give; this is the crowd that makes up the suck er list, when a “gorid thing” is pre sented to them by a slick talking salesman.

The farmers in Davle and practi cally all over the state, are far be hind with their spring work. No corn has been planted, and but little cotton and tobacco land has been broke. The winter-and spring has been one of the wettest on record, with the rainfall up to this time more than fifteen inches above ncr mal. With seasonable weather for the next few weeks the farmers w l hardly have time to eat and sleep, and the hungry office hunter will receive a cool welcome when he comes around. ______ U ptothis good hour not a candi date for office has been discovered in Davie county. W ith the primary only a little more than a month away and only ,three weeks left in which to-file for office, it seems that the present bunch of officers in the county will have no opposition on the Republican ticket. So far as we can learn, no democrat has filed for any county office. Just who will be the Republican nominee for the legislature, no one can say. There is talk of two or three- filing for this office, but so far, no one has announced his candidacy- Attention Farmers. A schednle of mmunity meetings has been arranged to. discuss the new Soil Con servation Program with small groups. Many farmers did not attend' the county meeting held on Wednesday, April 8, and some that did attend ate confused on some of the points. A t the end of each meeting work sheets will be available for those farmers who wish to fill .them but. Practi cally the same information will be given a t each meeting so if it is impossible to attend the near one, another meeting may be attended and the same information will be forthcoming. The schedule is as follows: Farmington, 9 a. m., Wednesday, April 22. Smith Grove School, I p. m., Wednesday April 22. • Cornatzer. 9 a. m.. Thursday. April 23. Advance, I p. m., Thursday, April 23.

Prepared by the National Oeoeraphlc Society.Washington. D. C.—WNU Service. M ANY of the cities that will be affected economically by the recent movement of Nazi troops are well-known, to Americans who have enjoyed happy vacation days In the Rhineland. Among them are Koln (Cologne), Duisburg, and Koblenz (Coblenz); cities that have beckoned to, and charm ed trav elers from this side of the Atlantic. Koln Is one of the m ost popular stop ping places along the Rhine. The city, with its bristling trade and with one of the w orld’s m ost fam ous cathedrals is, perhaps, the valley’s greatest draw ing card. W hether the traveler approaches Koln by the black-and-white tunneled passenger boats, by train, or by motor over the num erous highways that radi ate from the city, the m assive cathe dral, blackened by age, first comes into view. The huge structure dw arfs the close-built, gabled, medieval houses and modern flat-roofed structures. The Koln edifice is a fine exam ple of Gothic architecture ranking fifth in size among the w orld’s cathedrals. It Is richly adorned with a profusion of turrets, spires, flying buttresses, elab orately carved cornices, fluted col umns, and stained glass windows fram ed In beautifully executed tracery work. From Its heights numerous gargoyles gape at passers-by in the streets beneath. -The twin spires flanking the western facade, each nearly as tall as the W ashington monument, tow er over the city and the sw ift flowing Rhine “like fingers pointing the city to heaven.” " Kotn Is Ancient But Busy. A lthough Koln is two thousand years old, it reflects its prosperity and modern development in wide, tree- lined boulevards, broken here and there by flowering gardens and park w ays ' ornam ented ' with monuments, and equestrian statues of celebrated GermSn countrymen. F ine' shops'and Imposing mansions border these thoroughfares but now and then one w anders into a section where medieval Koln reveals itself in tortuous, narrow, cobbled streets, walled by ancient gabled house fronts and dimly lighted by antiquated gas iiosts. The Roman wall that once surround ed old Koln has long since been de stroyed and Its foundation, now form s one of the city’s most beautiful boule vards and parkw ays—The Ring. Only the gate tcw ers of the walls remain, m arking the, lim its of the old city. B eyond’them Koln has spread out, ab sorbing num erous suburbs until its population now is nearly 700,000. As Germ any’s great river port and one of its m ajor railroad centers Koln is the St. Louis of the republic. Under the graceful arched bridge th at con nects K olr with the east bank of the Rhine, pass long strings of barges, lum ber rafts, barge steam ers and pala tial passenger boats.

Duisburg, Germany’s largest river port, is more than 1,500 years old. T here w as a village on its site in 430 A. D., and it w as well-known to the Romans when they occupied the Rhine country m any centuries ago. W hen the city charter w as handed to the D uisburgers In 1129, the port’s com m ercial im portance had been estab- llshed. Viewed from a Rhine river boats there is nothing in D uisburg to suggest its age. The traveler looks out . upon a maze of shipping- Duisburg and R uhrort w ere merged in 1905 and the quays of the tw o cities, if spread out In a single line along the Rhine, would span 25 miles of river bank. Duisburg a Crowded Port. A constant stream of boats Is coming and going from the Rhine channel. Iron products. steel, coal, tobacco and textiles move from this port to ma y parts of the world, w hile some of the incoming boats bring iron fromi Spain and Sweden to keep the wheels of D uisburg mills In operation. Mean w hile the R uhr river, which flows into the Rhine a t Duisburg, is fllledJ ^ h vessels and barges, many dock a t the busy port where heir w r goes are transferred to sea-going craft, or conveyed to D uisburg mills.. Beyond the q u a y s ,lofty smoke stacks rise above huge steel and iron p > rolling vmills, foundries, machine shops, chemical w orks and shtPJard ’ now and then on t h e brightest J a y s , the blast furnaces Selch a roin“ 00v! flame and smoke that 3tar le^ eler. A- Duisburger- will show how some of the factories malce use of their smoke by extracting gases which help turn the wheels In the mills from which it comes. Q uaint, gabled houses with doorsteps protruding upon the cobbles’ of narrow streets, and the venerable St. Savior’s -church, a fine Gothic edifice, whose spire rises 312 feet above the city, take the traveler back a few centuries, but most of Duisburg is as new as any of America’s colonial towns. In the middle -of the Nineteenth cen- i tury Duisburg had only 15,000 inhab itants and R uhrort, 7,000. Today both cities have a population of nearly 300,- 000 , drawn from nearly all parts of Germany, and many parts of Europe. As the rich R uhr district is further developed, Duisburg, as the w ater gate way of the R uhr district, bids fair to continue to grow. A large portion of the working popu lation of Duisburg work in the great steel mills of the Duisburg area. F re quently they crowd, the city stadium which accommodates 40,000 spectators. The opera, and some of Germany’s finest orchestras and enthusiastic audi ences here. M any churches and gov ernm ent buildings, as well as the mu seum, are adorned with paintings, sculptures or industrial a rt works. The new er portion of Duisburg is laid out with modern thoroughfares, in the business districts of which are fine shops. Frequently the streets open into the broad squares where D uisburg has placed statues in honor of local and national patriots. Duis burg was the home of Gerhard M erca tor, and in the Burg-PIatz is a fountain commemorating the mapmaker. A ttractions of Koblenz. . The traveler finds that there is little wonder that American soldiers liked their assignm ent to Koblenz after th* W orld war. Few. cities and towns, even In the Rhine valley, enjoy the picturesque setting- of-K oblenz.- -For , many miles above and below the city, thdf Rhine shore is studded WitfT villages, like gems strung on a gracefully curving string. Behind them, well-kept vine yards, sources of the famous Rhine wine, clothe the steep river banks from the village backyards to the foot of massive Walls of castles that a few centuries ago were the gay gathering places of Some of the great and. near great of Germany. From the opposite shore, or from the rail of a Rhine river boat, Koblenz dis plays no evidence that there was a town on its site 2,700 years ago. A colossal equestrian statue of K aiser W ilhelm I overlooks the Rhine from the junction point of the Moselle and Rhine rivers. From this point to the opposite end of the city, the Rhine shore is lined -. with a wide, open space with shaded promenades and num erous grassy parks. No sooty smoke stacks and ware houses are visible to m ar the skyline of modern buildings and lofty church steeples. There is a landing place on the riverside but It is spotlessly clean and free from unsightly piles of cargo. Koblenz Is a great wine m arket, but after viewing the fine buildings, and palatial residences set amid wide lawns, travelers search for other evi dence of the city’s livelihood. On the Moselle banks they find it. Barges constantly come and go from the quays and a visit to the nearby streets reveal busy piano, paper, and dye fac tories, and chemical laboratories. On the riverside are small yards from which slip some of the boats and barges that ply the Rhine. Along the Moselle banks also are a -few narrow, crooked streets, lined w ith venerable houses, business build ings and churches—all that remains of old Koblenz, form erly Confluentia, so-named because of its situation at the confluence of the Rhine and Mo selle. The church of St. Castor, founded eleven centuries ago; the U ebfrauen church, - a Thirteenth century struc ture, and the municipal picture gallery, form erly 33 old castle, are a few of the interesting historic gems found w ithin the site of the once walled town. .A pontoon or boat bridge crosses the Rhine leading to Ehrenbreitsteih fort ress on the east bank of the Rhine.

Lesson for April 26 JESUS LOOKS AT WEALTH AND POVERTY LESSON TEXT—Luke 16:19-31.GOLDEN TEXT—The rich ana poor meet ,together: the LorA is the maker of them all.—Proverbs 22:2 PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus- Story of a Beggar Man. JUNIOR TOPIC—Which Was the Rich Man? INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What Money Cannot Buy.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—How Can We Make Our Social Order Christian? The topic Us given by the Lesson committee is hardly a fair statem ent. The supreme message is the presenta tion of contrasted lives and destinies as expressed through the accidents of wealth and poverty. Lazarus,w as not entitled to heaven because he was poor, neither did the rich man reach the place of torm ent because he was rich. In this lesson two worlds are unveiled before us, disclosing: extremes of character and conditions of per sons. In this world we see a rich man reveling in luxury and a poor man In sore affliction begging at the. rich man’s gate. In the other world we see the same men In reversed positions. These lives were intended to be rep- resentive. I. The Contrasted Lives (w . 19-21). 1. The rich man (v. 19). H e seeems to have lived in a mansion secluded from the common people. H e w as clothed in costly raim ent. He w as served the richest food that could be provided. H is sin was selfishly to in dulge his appetites without considera tion for others. 2. The beggar (vv. 20, 21). H e was laid at the rich man’s gate w ith the hope of getting at least the crumbs from his table. The rich man gave him no consideration. The dogs of the street were more kind to him than the rich man. Though destitute and helpless, the man’s name is most sug gestive. “Lazarus" means “God is a help,” indicating that a godly life shone through his poverty. Worldly condition is not a sure test of a man’s position in the sight of God. All rich men are not wicked and selfish, neither are all poor men godly. If. Their Contrasted D eaths and Burials (v. 22). 1. The beggar. He was found dead and his body was hurried off to a pauper’s grave. . No notice w as taken of hl§ death by the world. Doubtless the'only loss to the world was that he was no longer to be seen at the rich man’s gate. 2. T he rich man. He also died. His gold could not bribe the.m esse: V of death. Doubtless a costly funeral was held, attended by those who moved in his social class, the officiat ing priest pronouncing great eulogies over him. III. Their Contrasted Destinies (v. 23). . . , 1. The beggar. He was at. once carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom. Te souls of believers are espe cially cared for a t .the hour of death (Phil. 1 :23). They go immediately to be with the Lord. ’ 2. The rich man. Though he had an elaborate burial, he lifted up his eyes in hell being in torm ent W hen the veil of futurity is lifted, we see the positions of these men are reversed. The poor man is in the company of jnst men made perfect because of his life of' godliness on the earth, and the rich man is stripped of his purple and fine linen and. cast into hell with all wicked men, because while on earth he lived only for selfish ends. IV. The Reality and Fixedness of Life Beyond the Grave , (vv, 24-31). 1. The cry for mercy (v. 24). Dives, which is the Latin name for “rich man,” was. now willing to claim relationship to Abraham. He was keenly conscious and the appetites which controlled him while on earth were still with him. P art of the torm ent of hell will be the cravings of appetite and lust with no means of their gratification. 2. Abraham’s reply (v. 25). This reply cast the m atter back upon the man’s memory. He said, “Son, re member." The lashings of a guilty conscience will be most real in hell. 3. Their fixedness. Human des tinies are fixed during this life. When one passes out of this life he eDters into a condition unchangeable. 4. God’s Word is the all-sufficient light (vv. 27-31). Dives now requested that Lazarus go on an errand of mercy to ’his brethren. He regarded the testi mony of a spirit of more value than the W ord of God. Many today are more willing to trust the rappings of a ghost than the sure W ord of God. Abraham declared that God’s Word ,3 . sufficient, that those who rejected Moses and the prophets would not re pent though visited by one who had risen from the dead.

CONGRESS settled down to earnest work that would clear the way for early adjournment, the two chief mat ters under consideration being taxes and relief. Demo cratic members of the house ways and means if committee worked In executive- session to draw up the new rev enue m easure which they expect will yield m about $7 9 9 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 in » . - y * Jy additional taxes during J l the next year. The mi- A Jjf nority members stayed away, scornfully as serting their presence was useless because the preparation of the m easure was utterly partisan. Representative A. P. Lamneck .o f Ohio, Democrat, was insistent on his plan to raise $500,000,- 000 by a flat 20 to 22 per cent tax on corporation income. To produce $263,- 000,000 more and bring his plan nearly up to the money requirement outlined by President Roosevelt, Lamneck would repeal the present exemption of corporation dividends from the nor mal Income tax rate. On that, he was In agreement with the committee pro gram. H arry L. Hopkins, head of the WPA1 appeared before a subcommittee of the house appropriations committee, also in executive session, to urge compli ance .with President Roosevelt’s re quest for an additional billion and a half to finance relief in the 1937 fiscal year. Various committee members at once demanded that Mr. Hopkins tell w hat had been done with the $4,800,- 000,000 granted last year. He was said to have promised to do his best to satisfy them, but Chairman J. P. Buchanan warned the minority mem bers that "this Is not to be made into an investigation.” PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, happy and wen tanned, wound up his fish ing cruise in the Bahamas and re turned to W ashington. He landed at Fort Lauderdale and boarded his spe cial train at once, being accompanied for a .'tim e -Jby Governor Sholts, of Florida and Tames A- Moffett who may be appointed assistant secretary of the navy to succeed the late Henry Roose velt Governor M cNutt of Indiana, possible keynoter of the Democratic convention, weDt up from Miami to greet the President On the way to W ashington Mr. Roosevelt stopped for half a day at W arm Springs, Gan to look a t his farm and take a swim in the resort pool. Passing through part of the region devastated by the recent torna does, he received reports from eyewit nesses along the route. SENATOR BLACK’S lobby commit tee won a considerable victory in the D istrict of Columbia Supreme court when Chief Justice W heat refused to enjoin the committee from using the tele gram s from and to Wil liam R B earst which had been seized. The judge held that the court had no jurisdic tion over the commit tee, and said he could not see that' the free dom of the press was in any way involved. Said his honor: “I have not been In- Senator Black form ed yet of any case In which any court has assumed to dictate to a com m ittee of the senate w hat it should do and w hat it should not do, and I do not feel th at I have any right to inau gurate any such principle as th a t” Elisha Hanson, connsel for Mr. H e arst announced that he would a p peal from the decision, and It was certain that the case would ultim ately be taken before the United States Su prem e court Continuing Its Investigation, the Black committee heard the testimony of Fred G. Clark of New York, na tional commander of the Crusaders. Mr. Clark denied tbat the organization bad ever engaged in lobbying, and de clared that it had assailed the meth ods of lobbyists in a national radio broadcast Senator Black endeavored to show that the Crusaders, the American Lib erty Jeague, the Sentinels of the Re public, the Southern Committee to Up hold the Constitution, the American Taxpayers’ league, the National Econ omy league, and sim ilar organizations opposed to the New Deal were sup ported largely by the same small group of wealthy industrialists. One of his investigators put In a list of contrib utors to two or more of the gronps named. Mr. Clark obtained permission to inclnde In the record a list of hun dreds of small contributors, who sent In sums ranging from $1 up in re sponse to the radio program. MUSSOLINI’S African adventure and H itler's Rhineland doings and future intentions, tangled togeth er, have created a situation tbat seemed to Inperil the formal friend ship between G reat B ritain and France. The British were insisting that Italy be curbed, that her use of pot son gas In Ethiopia be taken up hj the League of Nations and that peaci negotiations between Italy and Ethl opia be opened quickly to forestal any attem pt by Prem ier Mussolini tt sign a settlem ent which m ight rist from ruins of H aile Selassie’s Ethi opian empire. Foreign Secretary Edet indicated the British were determined to make peace progress “before wi leave Geneva,” B ritain reserving its decision as to w hat to do next if thii conciliation effort failed. The conciliation committee of the league was making little or no prog ress, and in Rome Mussolini told his cabinet that Ethiopia’s arm ies should and would be “totally annihilated.’ His own forces, meanwhile, were mov ing rapidly toward Dessye and Addis Ababa. France was reverting to her for mer policy of letting Italy go ahead with its African conquest, devoting hei attention m ainly to Germany and cen tral Europe. The B ritish continued to treat all that In a conciliatory way. which disgusted the French. Prem ier Sarraut handed in his government’s reply to the H itler settlem ent pro posals, subm itting in return its own plan., This demanded that Germany keep “hands off" the rest of Europe for 25 years, renouncing her apparent intentions of action against A ustria, Danzig and Memel, and claims fot colonies. It subm itted a French peace plan based on “collective security” with regional m utual assistance pacts backed by an International arm y di rected by a commission working through the league. FEDERAL money totaling $976,000,- 000 will be spent in the next four years on low-cost rent and slum clear-i ance construction projects, provided t h e adm inistration’s h o u s i n g bill, intro duced by Senator Rob ert F. W agner of New York, is passed by congress. Mr. W agner hopes it will be put t h r o u g h during the present session.: T h e- m easure Is ..a c o m p r o m is e of the many proposals made by the various relief Sen.

Tbe authority would be empowered to m ake grants not to exceed 45 per cent of the total cost and loan9 for the rem ainder to any public housing agency for the acquisition of land and the construction of “low-rent’’ housing projects. The loans would be repayable over a period not to ex ceed 60 years, a t sucb rates of Inter est as the authority decreed. FLYING through a fog on its way to Pittsburgh, a'T ranscontinental and W estern Air liner went far out of Its course, plowed through the for est seven miles southeast of Union Gity, Pa., and smashed into a granite wall on Chestnut Ridge. Nine pas sengers and the two pilots were killed. The stewardess. Miss Nellie Granger, managed to drag one man and the sole woman passenger from the flam ing wreckage, bound up their wounds, ran four miles to a farm house from which she telephoned to Pittsburgh the news of the disaster, and then returned to the scene"to care for the survivors until a rescue party could arrive. The pilots were flying on a radio beam, and it was believed their radio apparatus failed. A t this w rit ing there is no other explanation. SOMETHING new In Spanish history took place In Madrid. The parlia ment, by a vote of 238 to 5, onsted Nlceto Alcala Zamora from -the office of president of the republic. This ac tion, accomplished by a- coalition of Socialists, Communists, Left Repub licans and ten m inor groups, w as taken on a Socialist motion that the presi dent bad acted illegally In dissolving the last parliam ent before the elections and tbat therefore he should be ex pelled from Office. Back of this mo tion, however, lay radical sentim ent tbat Zamora, In using his power ac cording to personal whim, has ham pered the progress of the “republican revolution." Diego M artinez Barrio, speaker of parliam ent, w as made tem porary pres ident to serve until elections are held. RUSSIA has rejected China’s pro test against the sovlet-Outer Mon golian m utual assistance pact, but as serted the treaty does not signify any territorial claim by the Soviet nnlon over China or O uter Mongolia. The Russians believe that Japan plans to set up puppet states In North China and Inner Mongolia and then to seize Outer Mongolia. The Manchukuo government gave out details of a bloody battle between M anchukuans and Outer Mongolians In which the latter were repulsed, los ing six bombing planes and some tanks SEiNATOR NORRIS’ bin creating a M ississippi Valley authority to ap ply the TVA experim ent to 22 states is not approved by the N ational Grange, which thinks it would be absurd to bring new land into cultivation by irri gation while farm ers are being paid for letting their land lie fallow. Fred H. Brenckman, legislative representa tive of the Grange, appeared before a senate agriculture subcomm ittee and said the organization also objected to the proposal to construct huge dams throughout the .Mississippi valley for the production of hydro-electric pow er. He favored a scientific program of soil conservation hut insisted upon a distinction between conservation and reclam ation. He also advocated a sci entific flood control program, but dis tinguished between flood control and hydro-electric power development. Like previous witnesses, including electrical engineers and JIorris L- Cooke, the New Deal’s rural electrifi cation adm inistrator, JIr. Brenckm an Informed the committee that flood con trol can be accomplished only by con structing little dams far up in the headw aters. FIVE hundred members of the W ork ers’ Alliance, in convention in W ashington, m arched to the W hite House to demand continuation of the W orks Progress adm inistration, but neither President Roosevelt nor any of his secretaries w as there to receive their petition. The men w ere orderly and the police did not m olest them. W PA A dm inistrator H opkins also was absent from his office, but his assis tant,- Aubrey W illiams, received the delegation. David Lasser, national chairm an of the organization, told W illiam s the group had been promised food and shelter during their stay In W ashing ton and transportation to their homes. W illiams said that under a regula tion prom ulgated February 2 no fed eral funds could be donated for con ventions of the unemployed unless congress made a specific appropria tion for that purpose. DUE to the insistence of Senator Vandenberg for publicity on large AAA benefit paym ents, Secre tary W allace has begun telling about them. H e made a partial report, withholding the names of recipients w ith three exceptions. This revealed th at the largest cotton rental benefit payment, $123,747 for 1934, w ent to a M ississippi company headed by Oscar Johnston, an AAA official. Among tha largest cotton paym ent recipients In 1933 w ere the M ississippi state peni tentiary, which received $43200 for controlling production on Its cotton acreage, and $25,500 to the A rkansas state prison. Re s o l v i n g itself m to a court, the senate began the Impeachment trial of Federal Judge H alsted, L. R it ter of Florida—the tw elfth such ease In 137 years. It was believed the trial would last a t least one week. The defendant was represented by Carl T. Hoffman of Miami h and Frank R. W alsb I of W ashington and * New York. T he prose cution was In charge o f R epresentatives Summers of Texas, Hobbs of Alabam a and Perkins of New Jersey, who presented the charges. Originally approxim ately QU Wit- hesses were summoned for the trial, but 29 were excused because of with draw al by the prosecution of two Specifications In article seven charg ing Judge R itter acted Improperly In electric rate and banking proceedings. Judge R itter is charged In seven Impeachment articles voted by the house with allowing A. In Rankin, a form er law partner, exorbitant receiv ership fees, w ith “corruptly” receiving $4,500 from Rankin, with violating the judicial code In practicing law while on the bench, and with evasion of taxes on part of his 1929 and 1930 in comes. In a 12,000-word reply. R itter de nied all of the charges. He asserted none of the actions cited bad “brought his court into scandal and disrepute” or “destroyed public confidence In the adm inistration of justice” In tbat court. T ORNADOES tore across Missis sippi, Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, and Tennessee, leaving death and de struction In their wake. About 400 persons were killed and hundreds of others Injured, and the property losses ran up into the millions. The little city of Tnpelo, Miss., suffered the most, with nearly 200 on the death list and more than a hundred homes smashed into kindling wood. A few hours later another tornado struck Gainesville, Ga., and In three minutes had nearly ruined the busi ness section of the town and killed more than 150 persons. In fires that followed the storm the bodies of many victims 'w ere burned beyond recogni tion. Tbe mining communities near Co- -umbia. Tenn., to the north and east of .Tupelo, counted seven dead. Red Bay, eastw ard In Alabama,, lost five Uves to the merciless wind. Near-by Booneviile, Missn had four killed and Batesville, Arkn suffered one death. IN A decision concerning a specific *■ action of the SecurIUes Exchange commission the United States Snpremc court ruled against the SEC, and In Its pronouncement It uttered a Sig nlficant warning against the exercise of arbitrary power by governmental agencies. Especially censured were the •’fishing excursions,” often undertaken by commissions and congressional committees. 4 R itter W ashingtoni D ig est j L N a t i o n a l T o p i c s - I n t e r p r e t e c l B y W I L L I A M B R U C K A R T 1 NATIONAL PREsV BLDG. ,' ... WASHINGTON; CL C. W ashington--In the last few weeks In W ashington, we have heard little about any govern- A ll T a lk m ental affairs ex- A b o a t T a x e s cept taxes. Every one charged w ith re sponsibility for m aintenance of govern ment credit or the m aintenance of the supply of cash to carry on the era of spending is talking about taxes. It is In truth the predom inant subject, over shadowing even the lobby investiga tion headed by Senator Black, Alabama Democrat, with that com m ittee's record of obtaining private telegram s by sub terfuge. * It really is not startling that every one should be talking about taxes be cause, however you examine the ques tion of government at this time, your analysis must inevitably lead back to the question of the source of fuDds. And how could It be otherwise? We have a national debt $5,000,000,CM30 larger than it has ever been before, and still going higher; we have, seven or nine or eleven million people unem ployed—depending on the source of your information on this point—and we are confronted with declarations from President Roosevelt and his ad visers that more must be spent It seems perfectly obvious, therefore, that saner minds should be examining the whole economic structure of the na tion to determine from whence the money is to come. Congress is in the m idst of working out a new tax bill. The house of rep resentatives, w here revenue legislation m ust originate, according to the Con stitution which is still operative, is up to its neck with the tax problem. It is trying to work out a tax bill that w ill carry out the W hite House orders to take more money from corporations by levies on surpluses along w ith some m inor schemes of taxation designed to Increase the total somewhat. D uring the tim e the house ways and m eans committee was trying to form u late a tax program on the basis of the President’s tax message, there w as a perfect deluge of tax discussion here abouts. I think it m ay be said in this connection, also, th at the house ways and means committee did a rather ridiculous thing as a prelim inary to presentation of a tax bill to theiiouse. It actually began hearings on tax leg islation w ithout a tax bill in legislative language having been drafted. As far as I can learn, it w as the first tim e th at w itnesses w ere called In and asked to testify as to the efficacy of proposed tax legislation when there w as actually no language In legislative form about which those witnesses could testify, either for or ag ain st All the committee had before it w as a so- called “committee report,” a statem ent of its views as to w hat ought to he done and It was alm ost pitiful to wit ness individuals vqho are expert on taxation attem pting to catch on to some will-o’-the-wisp and say that it w as sound or nnsound. Yet, that was w hat Chairm an Doughton, Democrat, N orth Carolina, and his committee asked them to do. Perhaps I ought to ’ explain for the benefit of those not acquainted with tax legislation th at there is nothing so im portant in a tax bill as the exact language. There are few places In law where the use of a particular word or the placing of a particular comma makes so much dif ference. In tax law. the dotting of an I and the crossing of a t are, In deed, im portant.* * * One benefit has accrued from thisr situation, however, and I hope, as I believe everyone else W h e e le r a desiring good gov- S u g g e stio n ernm ent and proper laws hopes, th at it will result in a tax bill generally more acceptable than has been pro posed thus far. The m aelstrom 'o f discussion that has arisen from the house ways and means committee hearings has m ade a good many peo ple “tax conscious.” Being “tax con scious” a t this time, a good many men capable of thinking straight have begun to offer suggesUons. I have been receiving some of them myself and one that has come to me has Imm essed me so much th at I am going to use the substance of it in this column. It comes to me from Mr. H arry A. W heeler, widely -known business executive and banker of Chicago. Mr. W heeler has* been rec ognized for a quarter of a century as a man who is given to looking rather far into the future and for his ability to analyze problems, circum stances and conditions on a long-term basis rather than on urgency of current re quirements. “Since the consideration of the cor porate surplus tax act began,” Mr Wheeler wrote me, “I have watched the proceedings closely for some al ternative proposal that would produce a substantial tax revenue and yet tend to strengthen the program of the ad- mlnistratiOD to assure continuing'busl- ness recovery, Create definite added employment In industries- still down, and lower production costs and prices’ to the ultimate consumer. “No one denies that increased fed eral revenue by taxation is impera- Uve, but it may be open to argument whether this can best be produced by the direct route of tax levies to covei full requirem ent or by beginning w itl a plan th at will produce a large pro portion of the requirem ents and per m it the use of the rem ainder to ac complish the results first above stated; “The proposal is very simple, quite capable of being w ritten into legisla tive provisions; it would carry a clear guarantee of useful results and reach the final full requirem ents of the gov ernm ent by progressively increasing taxable profits. “I propose th a t w hatever per cent of undistributed profits m ay be deter mined upon as the tax base, permission shall be given for a draw-back or re tention of say 20, 25 or 33% per cent on condition th at this am ount shall be used for capital expenditure to im prove and cheapen production and distribution facilities. “The draw-back may be by repay ment to the taxpayer upon voucher evidence th a t the am ount has been actually expended or by credit upon the second year’s tax levy. “Corporations will not fail to use this rem ainder and perhaps even add to it out of their available corporate resources.» » » “Perm anent goods industries will at once be stim ulated by the knowledge that purchases will Stimulate be made to an ag- Industries gregate of the draw back, and stim ula tion of employment m ust result in m ost needed quarters. “The universality of this improve ment in production and distribution facilties will create the competitive conditions th at will compel savings to be passed on to consumers, but if any corporation tries to hold the added profits they will he taxed aw ay In the following years. “Living standards may be raised by m aking more commodities come w ithin the range of prices the public will pay. “Forced distribution in dividends to escape corporate high brackets will find a large p art being paid to stock • holders taxed In very low brackets and the result over all Is not unlikely to prove disappointing. ; “Increased tax rates - on . income or earnings leads to the struggle to avoid paym ent by ,every device th at can be developed. It may be th at this plan of draw -back would distinctly modify this tendency.” It is the first Ume that I have beard from any source the suggestion that the tax law should be m ade an instru m ent to encourage business recovery and promote employment. All of the objections heretofore have been di rected a t the character of the pro posal and have not Included constrnc- Uve thoughts which could be used as a new b ase Mr. W heeler’s plan may not be com plete It may not represent an answ er to the tax needs In their enUrety, but it m ust be said in its favor that it suggests an approach to the necessary answ er and embodies therein a plan of acUon which will not kill the goose that lays the golden egg. In other words, it has been proved too many Umes to require dis cussion th at higher tax rate9 reduce the incentive and the chief opposition to the adm inistration proposal is just that. It takes aw ay the incentive of the corporaUons to m ake more money which would be available for taxaHon. The W heeler proposal, therefore, of fers an incentive to corporations to proceed with plans of expanding their operation and thereby increase the num ber of w orkers o n ,their pay rolls. * • * I repeat that I do not know w hether the W heeler progi'am is the complete answ er but the fact N e a rtn g th at a m an of his T a x L im it status In the coun try’s business life Is giving consideraUon to the tax prob lem on a long-term basis leads cer tainly to two conclusions. These con clusions are, first, th a t the country Is nearing the lim its of w hat m ight be called reasonable taxaUon and, sec ond, that a very g reat m ajority of our people believe some consideraUon should be given to the need for an end to governm ent spending. If taxaUon has reached the point w here- an overexpanded federal gov ernm ent requires so much money th at It m ust take aw ay the backlogs, the reserves of business, then it is quite apparent th at a shrinkage in this struc ture called governm ent m ust begin. If it does not, one could reasonably say th a t governm ent credit is endangered, or will be if the spending continues much longer. W e have been using up our resources actually In billions for the construction o f many different types of things from which no earnings accrue. Then, In addition, I think n o . one can deny but th at there has been w ide-spread w aste of these funds. It is a splendid thing tp have excellent roads, fine public buildings, beautiful parks and restored forests, eten but they have to be paid for . out . of taxpayers’ money. More- ever, there is no profit available from any such investm ents th at can be taxed; T hat mopey Is gone, dead. It is fine to have those things If we can afford them, but beauty of the coun tryside won’t fill em pty stomachs.''® Western Newsoaner Union.

SWi F la m e in th e F o re s t CHAPTER X III—Continued H e took up the tumbler, removed his hat from the box and slid the inverted glass over the small opening in the top. Then he sat down to wait. "H i! AU loaded up, eh?” The bee had appeared in the glass, crawling about the interior intently, seeking escape. Carefully, Young tipped the tumbler to its side; the insect con tinued its investigation for a moment and then, finding the way to freedom, poised an instant on the rim and took hasty wing. As the bee launched itself, Kerry stood erect and tense, eyes on the swiftly moving dot against the pale sky. Out it went in a great circle, and back again, skimming over the box. W ider it circled, and higher; again and again it swooped above its newly dis covered source of treasure, widening the circle each time, and Young's body moved as- he followed the course. . . . Then, with a final swoop, the bee straightened out, hearing a bit east of north, and disappeared behind a hemlock stub. “There!" he said and looked down at the bewildered dog. “T hat's the way it works. Tip. and that's our job for the Sabbath!" 'A t his word Tip sneezed and Young laughed heartily. “He's taking the bacon home, chnm! He gave the box ail those swings so he'll know where to come for more of what he found. Oh. yes, he'll be back. He'll fight wind and distance and anything but rain or cold to get here so long's there's a drop le ft And he’ll tell his buddies nbout it, too!” More bees appeared on the firewood, but K erry gave them no heed. He smoked and stood over his box, waiting through a long halt hour. And then fi louder buzzing, a more intent sound, came out of the silence, and a bee zoomed over the box. lighted on the cover and disappeared within. “And his gang!” the roan cried in triumph. “His gang. Tip! See? Two more . . . three . . . four . . . seven!’’ Singly and in braces they dropped to the box, sought the hole and, up ending, went through it out of sight. When no more appeared. Young placed his hat gently over the hole, picked up the box and, stepping care fully over the tangle of down stnff so a s not to fall and invite temporary disaster, made his way to the foot of the stub where the first bee, homeward bound, had disappeared. I !teaching there, he placed the box on a stump, removed his hat, slid the upended tum bler over the hole and squatted. Almost immediately, bees appeared inside the glass. He let three show before liberating them and then, with bated breath, followed their cir- clings until they had straightened out and marked a poplar tree, five rods away, as the last certain point on their course. “Not so good. Tip.", he m uttered. “Took that first feller a half hour to go and come. Maybe it's, a big tree; it so, he may have a lot of crawling around to do to get rid of his cargo. But, even so, It's a long ways off. They'll do a mile in five minutes In country and weather like this. . . . Tim ber's not so far from here; they ■won’t Hy so fast in there as they will tn this burning. And we won’t be able to see so far. either. . . . “Well, it’s like leap-frog. Come on, chum, let’s drag the duffle up!” Again nearly a half hour passed but this time the first contingent brought more helpers and when he moved the box forward to the base of the poplar tree, a handful of bees were trapped there and, when the last had gone, he replenished the supply of honey which served as bait from his bottle. T hat was a few minutes after eight, lust at the time when Nat Bridger, draw n and gray of face, hammered loudly on Tod W est’s door. W est answered sleepily from above and after a short interval appeared. H is greeting, which began with some- jfliing of his old geniality, petered ont to a crisp: “W hat the devil’s up?” “Enough!

This Young was not the sort of man who flees In the face of as flimsy a charge as had been placed against him. He had hoped a t the most to keep Kerry in safe confine m ent until Bridger and the prosecutor coufd perfect a case against Holt Stuart which would forever remove from his own breast those cancerous fears. B ut now . . . "Gone, eh?" he muttered. “Well, you’ve been made a monkey of by him. How U folks think of that when they go to vote for sheriff again? I tell you, Bridger, you got just one chance; th at's to start things movin’ against S tuart and not let ’em stop!” . “ Wei*, Tm tryin’, ain’t L But what B y H a r o ld T itu s illu s tr a tio n s b y I r w in M y e rs C opyright by H arold Titus.

He felt caged, trapped, and yet he could touch no bars, discern no snare or dead-fall immediately about him. still-. . .

He thought, from somewhere, he had heard that ringing, taunting, vindictive laughter again I • »«»»•» Jim Hinkle was on his way out to ward Shoestring again before mid- forenoon. He yawned as he drove and his eyes were inflamed. B ut he drove one of Nan's ears rapidly into town and turned eastw ard and made better time on the highway. He went into the third town before he stopped at a telegraph office and thrust across the counter the message that Ezra Adams had entrusted to him. 'State Police H eadquarters," the op erator read aloud and then mumbled the rest. . . . CHAPTER XIV It was sundown, now, with a cool mantle of evening descending on the forest. . “Tough luck, chum !” K erry m uttered to Tip as he finally gave up hope and turned away from his bee box. They’ve called it a day. . . . But we can’t be far off, now, and unless it rains tomorrow . . .” He looked anxiously upward. Clouds were riding up from the west. The air felt soft. If rain held tomorrow he would be put to the ordeal of keep ing out of sight and accomplishing nothing. . . . Not a nice prospect. “May have a wet night,” he told the dog. “We can’t be far from the cabin on Townline, but wouldn't dare risk that.” He found a down maple and under its sheltering bole spread bis blanket finally-and, rifle handy, dog beside him, stretched his tired body.' Rain began to fall and in the distance thunder rumbled. His thoughts turned to Nan, to Ezra and H olt; then to W est He drew a long, uneasy breath. . . . He would have been a trifle more a t peace had he known that a car, bearing two men, whirled into Shoe string from the southw ard, lights glar ing with intensified brightness in the downpour. It came to a stop before a gas station and one of the occupants, slicker clad, leaned out: ‘W hat's the road to W est’s Land ing?” be asked the boy. “F irst to the left and straight on, Twenty miles. Look out for the cul verts if th e creeks is u p !" “Thanks!” The car pulled away and the one who had asked directions said to the driver: “Don’t yon w ant me to take her. Sergeant? You've had a long trick at that wheel.” “Mebby so. You’ve napped. No tellin' w hat this old coot of a coroner’ll “Well, Young Made a Get-Away.” have on the bill for us when we get to him." • The rain was heavy but of short duration. Stars appeared, the rumble of thut-der retreated and when the sun rose to warm and dry the land, insect life had resumed its activity and Young, biting hard, on his pipe stem, carried his bee box forward, set it down and carefully liberated the con fined workers within. “We’re close, Tip!" he muttered. “Close.and closer! Look at ’em !” Dozens of bees swarmed about the box, buzzing shrilly. And an hour after the first visitor had palled for his portion of honey Young stood at the foot of a gnarled beech tree, staring upward at the old spar In the trunk, twice as high as his head, watching the come and go of workers through the hole that gave ac cess to the tree’s hollow h e art He did not move much after he had finally located the tree. For long he stood In one place, looking about, searching out what sign he could find. Man sign was there in plenty. Yon der, a white pine had recently been blazed and pitch globules glistened In the sunlight Brakes had been tram pled down; here a seedling maple lay crushed into the duff, its leaves not yet wilted. At the base of the tree lay a sapro phyte which, until recently, had been growing on the scarred portion of the trunk. He could see where the bracket- Iifce growth had been attached, two feet above the ground. He picked up the fungus and on Its pale, tan velvety surface showed the print of a heel, even to the nails, dark brown against the buff. Some man had used that bracket in starting to climb that tree! On his knees, he searched. The rain had not struck here with great force. Small bits of bark and lichens, with a fresh look, were there. The protrud ing end of a small limb, long since dead and all but absorbed by the ex panding trunk, bore bits of thread, as if a garm ent had been scrubbed over i t . . . Yes, someone bad climbed this bee tree. Honey and money! . . . Money and honey! Yonder went a tra il; faint, yet read able to Young’s eye. Not a game trail, either; he found the illy defined out line of a boot sole there. Stooped over, he followed- Broken, w ithered brakes told that someone had gone this way weeks before; broken brakes, still fresh, attested to a more recent pass ing. The sign ended before a ' pair of limestone boulders, tilted together, forming a small cave. “Oh—o h !” A nother stone had 6een set against this opening once; now it was gone, rolled yonder. He lay on his belly and shot his flash-light into the small cavern. . . . Granules glistened on the stone; he touched them with his finger and looked closely. Black, brittle, glitter ing flakes they w ere.. . . Lacquer from a japanned box? His mouth was very dry, now, and he rolled quickly to his side to stare at the tree. A box the size of the one he had dug up yesterday never could have been concealed in the hollow of the beech; the opening was too small. B ut a box had been hidden here, and a man had climbed the tree. . . . And honey had daubed the man who han dled both box and cro w b ar.............. “I’m a son-of-a-gun I” be cried. iT ll be a . . .’’ And on! his feet there his face showed, for ju st an instant, a flash of adm iration for the ingenuity which had laid out this course. . . . If the course he now suspected actu ally had been followed. H e had been right about the cabin on Townline. It was a short mile there and he covered the distance a t a jog trot. Tip close behind. He baited a t the edge of the clearing to look and listen and then went forward without hesitation. From an insect net above one of the bunks, he cut a portion; he found a pair of old leather gloves ; a workman’s denim jum per; a hank of stont cord. From the tool cache he took an ax, a cedar saw, a splitter and two wedges. These, w ith his rifle, made a burden of consequence and by the tim e he reached the tree again sweat bathed his excited body. From the netting he improvised a veil, adjusting it over bis hat and tucking the edges into the neck of the jum per. H e put on the gloves, tied the jum per sleeves tight about his w rists and picked up the ax. ‘Tip. . , . Yonder!” He gestured in command. "Away back and lie down! There’s going to be a lot of hostility here in a m inute!” H e waited until the dog had obeyed and then sent the bit of the ax deep into the beech. He was right about the hostility. Not a half dozen blows had been struck before they were upon him in a cloud, buzzing angrily, seeking ways through his veil and garm ents for countless stingers. B ut K erry was well protected and swung his ax steadily, eating a great gash in the trunk. Oh, one or two got to his wrists, and now and again he felt a burning prick on the shoulders when his jum per stretched tig h t B ut that w as as nothing, In this interval of suspense. The tree sagged and shivered. It snapped and swayed. He struck three more sw ift blows and stepped back as it came down w ith a mighty, swish ing roar and crash. H e had dropped the ax as the beech toppled. Now he took up the saw and, standing in a cloud of furious bees which hovered over the entrance to their fallen store-house, he sent the teeth singing through the stout wood. Swiftly, his supple body swung to and fro, stoutly his long, strong arm s drove the avid blade. The forest rang with the sound. . . . Rang w ith the sound which would have covered even the noise made by a frantic man, crashing through brush, running Intently, breath lessly, his hat gone and face scratched and clothing torn; heedless, apparent ly, of everything except making speed and clinging to the rifle he carried across his chest. No, the man w as not dose enough to have the sounds of his progress reach Young. B ut be was close enough to hear the ringing echo of that saw, He drew a band across his face to wipe away the blood and the sw eat and tried to still his breathing to listen His trembling lips shaped a word and then he went forward, cautlously.-walk- ing like a cat, rifle held a t ready As he approached the scarce of those other sounds, which hz S now changed from that of saw ing to blows of a sledge on metal, he bent forw ard a trifle and went even more slowly, more quietly. . . . »»»••»* W est's Landing and its environs 3*5 experienced two long evenings and oqp long day of an excitem ent pitched to a point never before attained there. And now the second day w as begin ning. W ork was forgotten w here It could be and before Mel K night’s store was gathered a group which argued and debated and orated and broke short anything it happened to be say ing when another arrived, ju st on the chance that he would be the bearet of fresh incident. Holt Stuart w as In jaiL Nan Down er, it was said, had brought in a law yer from outside yesterday and the three had been together In N at Bridg e ts office for long but no attem pt to secure S tuart's release had been made as yet. K erry Young had escaped during the first night of his im prisonm ent and not been heard from since, though the search was frenzied. Frank B luejay was gone somewhere in his rattling, tattered flivver and men combed the blueberry country for sign or word of him. And across at Downer’s headquar ters, old Ezra Adams sat behind the locked door of N an’s office with the articles he and Young had brought “ P r i d e o f t h e G a r d e n , ” L o v e l y A p p l i q lle Q u i l t , E a s y a n d I n e x p e n s i v e to A Group Which Argued and De bated. from Townline, refusing to budget denying Bridger adm ittance, w aiting for something . . . one knew not w hat I Ob, it was something to talk about, all right, all right! 'r Tod West had been in and ont, say ing little, going into long, heated but confidential talks wtih the sheriff. “H e's givin’ N at hell!” the wise ones opined. “Tod’s anxious to see things go right In this country, you bet I Leave it to T od; he’ll give good ad vice!” B ut this last was a m atter of habit Even when men said it and others agreed, they were m aking reservations, it w as easy to determine. Somehow, Tod W est wasn’t the figure he had been. . . . And now came young Logan De- Priest, walking across the trestle from Downer’s. He w as a lad with mild blue eyes and pimples on his face and fuzz on his chin. “Well, Logan, you got It all settled over there?” a w ag asked. “Dam’ right! Dam’ right we have!” the youth replied im portantly. Something about his m anner tugged a t the interest of those who heard and saw, and yet , . . Logan was not to be taken seriously. “I s’pose you’ve found Young ’nd Bluejay 'nd know w hat Ezra’s got hatchin’, eh?” “Dam’ right! Dam’ right, I do!” “A lot you know !” “Betcha I know more’n any of you ■uns! Betcba million dollars, I do!” “Take you.

W ashington Is taking calmly the President’s recent appointm ent of a three-man commission to study a pro posed reorganization of the executive branch of the Governm ent Tbe execu tive branch alone employs more than 800,000 men and women and thirty new bureaus have been added under the Boosevelt adm inistration. Since the tim e the other President Roosevelt was In the W hite House there have been sim ilar reform proposals. Nothing has ever come of Uiem except the transfer ofi two bureaus-In th e 'adm inistration of President Coolldge. The need for reform Is conceded to be.m ost urgent at this, time but past experience has made W ashington observers skeptical. President Roosevelt In letters to Sen ate and House leaders said he had talked over the reorganization plan as early as last October and asked Con gressional committees to cooperate with the three-man commission he has appointed. When an effort was made In the House Immediately to carry out the. President’s request for the appoint m ent of Its committee Representative Snell objected to haste. He said Mr. Roosevelt had had three years to un dertake such a reorganization. The resolution was referred to a committee. Those 1932 Pledges. Citizens of short memories may have forgotten that this subject was dis cussed In the ill-fated Democratic plat form of 1932. In that document was the following plank: “We advocate an Immediate and dras tic reduction of governmental expendi tures by abolishing useless commis sions and offices, consolidating depart ments and bureaus and elim inating ex travagance to accomplish a saving of not;less than -25 per cent In the cost OfiiFederal Government.” . Since that solemn covenant, later re inforced by the personal pledge of Mr. . Roosevelt, the national deficit has been increased by more than ten billion dollars. Expenditures of “regular” branches of the Government as well as th e- “emergency”, expenditures went to new all-time highs. Instead o f'd ro ft ping' bureaus overboard the adm inistra tion: took on thirty more spending or ganizations.'' • No Need to W alt I Critics of the trend tow ard bureauc racy In W ashington point out that Mr. Roosevelt does not need the aid of a commission to accomplish a great Im provement In the executive branch. He could Immediately cut off thousands of employees. Inconsistency Is also charged to the present urge tow ard re- forin In view of the recent beatings the cltll service law has been taking In the President’s large assortm ent of bu reaus. Men and women still are being employed In large numbers without re gard to civil service laws. President Roosevelt has explained that-.the “emergency” makes It neces sary to fill places quickly and there Is no tim e for m erit examinations. Law rence Sullivan, able W ashington w riter, brought out the fact, recently that 43 per cent of the employees of the ex ecutive branch are exempt from civil service. Four years ago only 19.2 per cent of employees were exem pt from the m erit laws. Plan Many Years Old. Ia addition to all this the comment is made that no reports from the com m ittee would probably be possible be fore next year. The reports, if and when completed, are regarded as hav ing more than an even chance at being stowed away In the archives with vari ous others on the same subject. Re organization of bureaus and reduction In costs were studied by committees and commissions < under Presidents Theodore Roosevelt, Taft, Harding Coolldge and Hoover . The present proposal, In election year, is cordially greeted by members of both houses of Congress. Biit If It should come actually to the point of lopping off any considerable number of political appointees on the various bulging payrolls, old tim ers In W ash ington foresee a cooling off of en thusiasm. AAA Will Pay to “Save” Land Just Reclaimed A dm inistrator Chester C. Davis, ad m inistrator of the old and the new AAA,- adm its there - Is one “paradox," • as he termed It, In the latest 9470,000,; 000 program. It was brought. out at a recent committee; hearing In the House that the Government In the last 2 or 3 years: has allocated probably three-quarters-of a billion dollars to reclaim arid-land. ITnder the aevl AAA set-up, Mr. Davls admitted, benefits WlllEbe paid-to farm ers occupylng these lands as the great-"tracts come Into cultivation. ;The Government will then; be In the strange-position of spending large am ounts -to reduqe! production oir land it has paid- millions to reclaim. ! - - — . r •*•'••-. 1 ' Refettlem Ont ■ ~ Professor Tngwell’sL expensive pro gram o f moving fam ilies. from one -neighborhood.to another seems to JiA ve' caught the fancy of the- N ew -D eal tax -planners.

Recent disclosures indicate that the Soil Conservation Act (new AAA) was even a far more sweeping delegation, of power to the A gricultural Depart ment than was suspected at the time the m easure was signed by the Presi dent on Feb. 29. As a m atter of fact It now appears that Congress, In char acteristic New Deal manner, provided $470,000,000 and left details to some body else; Tbe situation was fully revealed when Chester 0. Davis, adm inistrator of AAA, appeared before the subcom m ittee of the House Committee on Ap propriations on March 10. That was ten days after the Act had been signed. In form er times Congress exercised its right and duty to specify how money taken from the Treasury should be used. But since the $4,800,000,000 blank check given to the President early iast year, the old custom seems to have broken down. How astonishingly lit tle Congress knew about just how the new AAA funds were to be used is shown by two paragraphs In the official printed record of the testimony of Adr m lnlstrator Davis. Election Y ear Haste. The following 13 from the record: “Mr. Woodrum. As I understand it, the Departm ent itself does not know now w hat the specific conditions are that the farm er will have to comply to entitle him to share under the a ct; or'w hat he will g et; or the am ount of payment, or anything of th at kind.” “Mr. Davis. N o; not In any final form.” Later In the hearing It w as brought out th at voting of the huge sum In bulk before, details w ere known as to Its expenditure would make benefit paym ents available- to farm ers before the election. N ot only th at but Mr. DavIs said as much as possible of the $470,000,000 would be paid to .3,000,000 farm ers In 1936. T here would be only one paym ent to a farm er Instead of several paym ents. Mr. D avls spoke of “the peak of operations next fa it” Happened In 1934, Too. The “gentle rain of checks", to the farm ers prom ises' to become a . brisk downpour, beginning In Sepiem ber a id carrying on p ast election day. R epre sentative C hester’ C. Bolton, of Ohio, called the A dm inistrator’s attention to tkS fact th a t hundreds of thousands ol dollars had been paid to farm ers In October, 1934, just' before the Congres sional elections. - H e asked If It w as a “coincidence” that paym ents had been heaviest In October, Mr. D avls replied that no deviation had been m ade In Ihe regular method of payments.- A nother disclosure Ihat Interested some of the committeemen w as that the new AAA will have an arm y ol 100,000 men In the field In 48 States w orking by the day around the time the shower of checks falls heaviest These m en will be paid directly by the AAA, but they will be selected by as sociations -In the various counties. These associations will have the ad vice and counsel of 3,000 men In' the field as “direct employees" Of the new AAA. Mr. D avls said these' men will not be; under clvil servlce. W hen asked why the m erit system, of hiring the AAa personnel was not adopted, Mr. Davis said, “You Seg we are right In the middle of this thing' now. You can not have too much disturbance and de- lay In personnel.” R epresentative Lloyd Thurston, of Iowa,.m ade this comment: “Mr. Thurston. But those positions were all filled here on a patronage basis. Surely back In the States they should not be strait-jacketed by th« same restrictions r'of approval from W ashington." " - - A dm inistrator Davls said eventually the Investigation of claim s and the al- lotm ents of money will be handled-by' the States and that then there will be “no Interference.” - - W a s h i n g t o n N e w s M a d e U n d e r s t a n d a b l e The vast am ount of news ema nating from the national capi tal today is apt to be confusing to the, average reader.

(From The Atlanta Georgian) Everything In the United States lags except taxation. Businesi wages industries, may decline, but the tax eater waxes fatter and fat ter. Since March 4. 1933 , there Iiave been created 30 bureaus and com missions that did not exist prior to that time although the national de mocratic pla’form pledged a reduc ti on ot bureaus and commissions. These agencies have 120.000 em p loyees More than two hundred miltion dollars a year are pumped out ol the taxpayers’ pockets to pay the salaries alone of these employes. The expenditures 0 f these bureaus run into the billions, with such fabulous tax eaters as the PW A 1 the AAA and the Resettle ment Administration leading. This is only a glimpse of the federal activities in the field of tax- ibiseling x W hat the taxpayers of America would like to know this: How far are these gigantic bu reaucracies that have sprung into being almost over night actually function as emergency agencies and how tar are they political iu their nature?. How far are they part of the or ganism of the administration’s “ re covery” program and how far are they permanent parasitic growths? That the majority of these agen cies are political and parastic. is proven by this fact: The supreme court 'declared-'the NRA unconstritutional on May 2, but on Iuly 31, the N RA, which legally and actually no longer had any existence, still had 3 083 em ployes on the government payrolls. They were, it is said, engaged in research work.” So far as anyone can discover this research work consisted mainly of research work in the pockets of the taxpayers. The continuance of an NRA “ skeleton force” (A fat skelecon if thare ever was one) shows how hard it is to get rid of an army of government employes when they dig in the bureau or commission. Once a titanic patronage army is glued to a federal, state, county or city payroll it is as hard to disband as au army of guerrillas. W ith the second session of the seventy-fourth congress, we may look for au augumentatibu of the agencies—and more taxes. “ There can be no “ breathing” in this country until this frightful burden of bureaucracy—until this swarm of hundreds of thousands of employes—is taken from the should ers of the taxpayers. For what the country is praying is not a * breathing spell,” but nor mal respiration. We Hope They’ll Get Their fill. The various political campaigns in North Carolina are warming ..up with a vengeance, and thi.s heating process is bound to continue from now until the primary in June. All of the candidates aver that there will be no mud slinging. Nevertheless, there will be many an angry and bitter statement made b e f o r e the voters go to the poll?. This will apply not only to the can didates themselves, but also to their supporters. ^ B -fore this campaign comes to a close, we predict that the situation w illbe extremely tense and loyal Democrats will be cussing one an- ott/er out in whole fashion. O neof these days we’regom g to come to o u r senses and go °ack to the c o n v en tio n sy stem of namtng our candidates. If we ^stand an excellent chance of run ning our gobd ship. Democracy, on I th e rocks.—The State, No Cash And No Pay ments. Some months ago there was con; siderable interest taken in this coup: try in a political campaign in Alberta Canada where a candidate advocat ed a social credit scheme, holding out the promise of payments of $25 a month to certain citizens.- Theoandidatewaselected but the payments have not materialized. The impediment that barred the flow of cash to the citizens was a lack of revenue. Worse than the disap pointment involved in the end of' a dream, is the probability that the provincal legislature is about to lay down higher tax levies. The warning from Canada should give us a needed balance in consider: ing schemes like the Townsend Plan which promises $200 a month to all persons over 60 years of age. Cei- tainiv, The Herald Observer has no objection to the principal. of the Townsend Plan, involving assist ance to aged . persons. We think, however, that $200 a month is im practical and that it will not materialize for the same reason that the Alberta plan collapsed. It is one thing to promise $200 a. month and another thing to find the cash; money with which to make the pay ments,—Ex. Drifting Toward Dicta torship.

More over, the politicians seeking con trol have, thus far, not even bother ed to invent original methods of taking the powers of government from the people of this country. For example: This administra tion simply cannot stand criticism The various tax suits which, pe culiarly enough, have almost in variably been directed against a new deal” enemy, and the dis missal from office-of those with courage enough to denounce the administration openly is sufficient proof of this. Such tactics closely resemble other “ campaigns of fear” which were conducted in other lands.

We feel that, responsibility for care of the aged and infirm belongs to -the individual states. The same applies to unemployment insurance and aid to the farmers and business interests. . However, if it is going to be our oolicy to proceed along these lines from a national point of view, don’t let us confine it to half way mea sures: let’s go the entire route. •. When a man gets in debt and finds he can’t pay his obligations, let’s fix it so that he can call upon the federal government, and the money will be provided. If he fitids himself getting bald-headed, let the government furnish him with hair tonic, aud if he discovers that bis waist-line is increasing too rapidly for comfoit, make it pos sible for him to hold-, the govern ment to account. If be can’t sleep nights, let him be in a position to receive his share of the National Insomnia Fund, and if his cat has kittens, by all means allow him to put in an ap plication for his share of Cat- Has- Kittens Fund. 'J1 There are hundreds of emergen- dlkS-c'cratrotiting 'our- citizens, every day.. Heretofore we usually have been able able to cope with them ourselves, but it now looks as hough the government, wanted to relieve us from these worries. SO why not l.et it go ahead, be cause in the long run it is going to relieve us of prrctically everything else we’ve got— in order to pay up the tremendous bills which we are now piling up—and there’s no use m making a half-way job of it.— The State. The State Republican Convention. The Biblical Recorder, organ of the great Baptist denomination in the state, published at the seat of government, Raleigh, in the city where‘the recent Republican state convention was held and was in posi- to observe the workings of that fine body of men and women has the following to say of the gathering and our nominee for Governor: “We congratulate the Republicans of the State on their State conven tion in Raleigh on March 24 It was orderly and dignified and not stain ed with abuse of their opponents. Even Democrats who listened in could have -found very little to ' ob ject to in the keynote speech of Sena tor Steiwer of Oregon. He was fair, and the more effective on that ac count. “The most pleasing thing about the convention, however, is the quali ty of its nominees There is not a stronger and better man in the State than Gilliam Griisom, the nominee for Governor. During his years of service as Collector of Internal Re venue he rtvealed himself to our people who did notknow him before. He soon showed that the business of his office was being run right and with dispatch and his uniform court esy. made it ajjleasure to deal with him. No one doubts that if he should be elected Governor t.h e State’s business would be attended to with' promptness, fairness, en ergy, ability, and faithfulness - and with an eye single primarly to the general welfare The- R publican Convention deserves praise for no minating. The Democrats in their primary will have to do mighty well to meet the challenge of such a man: “ We do not know the other nomi nees of the convention so well. We hear them well spoken of. Itaugurs well fpr the State that the Republi cans are showing signs of life and virility. Tnere is nothing tbe State needs more than two strong and vig orous political parties.” Where Some Uncle Samrs Money Goes. • A resolution calling on the depart ment of Agriculture to report til AAA benefit payments over $10, 000 was introduced several days ago in the Senate by Senator Vanden- berg, Republican, of Michigan, but same same was smothered in the committee room-by the Dimocratic Senators and in all probability noth ing further will be heard of it. Sena tor Vandenberg pointed out that, since the benefit payment records were not open to inspection, no one could tell whether a small number of v e ry ., large payments, wrongly weighted the general average. He mentioned one beneficiary who, to his knowledge, had been paid $219 825 for not raising 14,537 hogs on 445 acres in two years, and he had a long list of similar examples. He hopes for favorable Senate con sideration of the resolution, although a similar resolution was rejected last year in the House: on representa tion by Chester C Davis. Agricutur- al Adjustment Administrator, that the compilat’on of statistics would be too difficult a task. In presenting the. resolution Senator Vandenberg made the following statement': I am presenting a resoluting seeking certain information from the Secretary of Agriculture re specting benefit payments under the agricultural adjustment act. I am asking for the names of all producers receiving benefit payments in ex cess $10 000 per annum in any one year, “It seems to me tbis information is highly pertinent for study in con Deetionwiththemewtaxbill1 Which must 'include $500,000,006 o f: new taxes to pay new'benefits under the new law, as well as $250,000,000 to paycommitments remaining o v e r from the old- law. These records are not open to in spection. I suppose it is the only existing secret disbursement of pre- miums, bonus or subsidies. We know something about the. average bene fit payments, but the information is entirely abstract, and except as we know to what extent the general averages are weighted down-by'large individual payments it is impossible to interpret these statistics. Let me make it wholly plain that I am not questioning the integrity of the dis bursements. I am asking only for information bearing upon the public policy involved. Cet we illustrate. I understand the average corn-bog benefit pav^ ment in Iowa is under $400 But I know, for example, about one corn- tract in another state where - the beneficiary was paid $219 825 in two years not for raising 14,587 hogs on 445 acres. “Again, I understand the average cotton . contract’ throughout the South is under $1,500. But I know, for example, about one cotton con tract which paid $168,000 for not planting 7 000 acres. ... “Again, I understand the average wheat contract in Kansas runs in the neighborhood of $800. But I know, foc-example, of one such contract— although in this instance I know neither the state nor the acreage— which produced sixty-five checks for a total of $78,638 in two; years ” Representative John Taber, Re publican, of New York, who intro duced a resolution simijar to Sena tor Vandenberg’s in the' House last year* met with considerable Admir- istration pressure against the meas ure. Taber-’s demands for the in formation were considerably more comprehensive than Senator Vanden berg’s,' - In his letter concerning the Taber resolution, Davis set forth-that not only would the revelation of AAA payments to individuals be a breach of confidence but also entail an im. men?e office task; He wrote: - *Our oomptrslfb!*estimafelr tl at it would take m orcpan SikTweeksr working his staff fe two shifts; to get tbiK-flfite.: During/this tim e’ about 80 per cent of the machine equipment of the comptroller’s division wou'd be tied up- This wonld mean a prac tical stop m getting out checks to 1 farmers on payments not vet made in connection with 1935 programs.

Cunningly, he looked about, enjoying immensely this moment of importance. “They start blowin’ powder on that box ’nd blowin: powder on ’at ole crowbar, ’nd stickin’ black tape over tli' powder 'nd showin' it to Ezra. “Th’ sergeant, he’s th’ boss. 'Nd he says to E z ra ; th' feller who handled th' crowbar ’s th’ fella who left his thumb print inside th‘ box.

"Jus’ now, ’at was," he declared. “Jus’ now, they're blowin' powder on 'at ol’ tin cup. . . .” , The group pressed close and closer but it had one less member, now; one less, because Tod W est was walking blindly, staggering a bit, toward his bouse. And as lie glanced across the river to where two tall young men walked on either side of Ezra Adams toward the trestle, he began to run. The spruce forest grew close to the back door of his house. It was but a moment's work to secure Iiis rifle, a supply of ammunition, and then dis appear through the trees. Panting, he fled up-stream and crossed in gravel shallows and plunged through the bush northward. He had a gun and food for its cham ber. He knew where iie could get an as. With an ax and a gun a man may live in the woods for long, provided he knows the woods and their ways. Tod W est knew that vast country be yond Townline lake better than did any other. He could hide there, could rem ain in safety for weeks, for months. He could not, of course, stay forever; and when he did emerge he would need more than an ax and a gun. He would need money. On his way up to his first sanctuary he could retrievem oney. . , . CHAPTER XV Under the driving of the wedges the tree split aud its halves rolled apart a t K erry Young’s feet. A great mass of brood and comb and oozing honey glistened in the sunlight. Trickles of the golden fluid ran across the freshly broken wood. In great sheets, the comb ran up the cavity, great folds. . . . And near the bottom of the hive, about the length of a man's fore arm from the entrance, imbedded In comb, snug and tight and safe, was the thing which belonged in no bee's storehouse! Toung moaned as he dropped the sledge and tore into the comb with his gloved hands, w resting from that sticky mass the cylindrical!; shaped object his quick eyes had detected. Honey dripped from it; bees swarmed about his hands as he turned it over and over. “W hat a place!” he m uttered. “No mouse could gnaw, no prowling bear find it. Nothing, Tod West, except the bees knew! . . . And wlio’d hunt for this tree? Who, if you hadn’t left honey sticking to that old crowbar?” H e shook off a bee which stung his w rist. He moved away from a buzzing cloud, making his way to the leaf dap pled spring and, stooping, plunged the sm eared roll of bills into the crystal waters. The honey washed away quickly, dis solving even in the cold water. He saw a figure on the currency; it was a hundred; many more were there. , . . Hfe washed them briskly and Tip came close. “Got It, T ip!” he cried. “Got dear N an’s cash! We’ve . . He broke off. A part of the sm ear would not w ash away. H e examined it care fully and the dog, snapping at a bee, did not catch that sound from behind, I the sound of a man rising in a screen I of young growth, bringing that rifle Ii slowly down, pressing a scratched and sw eat stained cheek to the stock. . . . “Pitch!” K erry muttered. “Pitch, sure as h—I! That’s why the blaze on the pine tree! He smeared it with pitch, Tip, so the bees wouldn’t try to carry it away and get rid of it piece by piece! He knew bees—” Yonng whirled, then, because the dog had turned, stiff and alert and opened his throat In a ragged growl. In the soft earth, K erry’s one foot slipped and he had started to fall even as the rifle spoke, started to throw himself, toward his own rifle, leaning against a 'boulder. .'. . Eiut he did not reach it; T hat other weapon barked and he went down with the agonies of hell Itself tearing a t his left shoulder. So it was Tip who rushed Tod West, who charged forward as the man emerged from the brush, rifle at ready. . . Tip who, with teeth showing, and eyes wicked with an orange flare, stood :alone between Nan Downer’s money in d the m an who bad cached it so cun- lDlngly I ! 'Again the Tlfle crashed and the dog, yelping, snapping at ,his right hind leg, vent end over end through the under brush, threshing, rolling, screaming with pain as Tod W est charged past him. . . . Young had fallen face down into the muck about the spring. His right hand lay limply In the w ater and away from it, rocked by the little ripples which still disturbed the surface, floated the roll of bills, turning slowly around and around. W est saw the money. With an oath he snatched it up and pumped a fresh cartridge into the rifle chamber. He poised there above the figure of his Nemesis, dropping the muzzle quickly to the back of the bared head. And then caution asserted itself. How far behind pursuit might be, Tod did not know. Already, he had flred twice, and sounds would carry well today. He stopped, listening. The pound of Iiis heart, the rasp of his own breath were loud. He lifted Young's arm and let it go. The inert hand smacked the w ater dully. Then, with cruel craft, he placed his foot against Young’s cheek, shoved his face down into the spring and leaped the now roily pool. “Breathe 'nd drown, damn you!” he growled shakily and set off at a slow run. . . . It was the tugging of the whining dog on his collar which stirred Kerry. He stirred and gulped and gasped. W ith a herculean effort, he raised his head and half rolled over; then dropped it to the ferns and lay there moaning lowly. He should not be there, he knew ; he had something to do; some where to go; a m atter to attend. . . . But things were so far away, so faint ly outlined, so . . . Tip’s tongue was frantic against his closed lids; Tip’s breath hot in his own nostrils. Consciousness came back with a nauseating surge. “Oh, G od!” he moaned, getting his knees somehow beneath him. “Oh . . . It’s gone . . . Tip! It was W est . . . It was . . . And he's got it!” Fighting down sickness, shaking his head against blindness, he searched. The money was gone. The money was gone! Tears coursed his cheeks as he shouted that at Tip and then stopped, leaning close to see better as the re triever licked savagely at his thigh. • “O h!” he gasped. “And he almost got you!” W ith his good right hand he touched the creature’s leg. "Bro ken !” he m uttered as Tip winced. "The two of u s .. . . And he’s making his get away with Nan’s money!" A great and godly rage shook him, lifted him above pain, above dizziness for the moment, sent a savage will surging through his broken body. “Tip, it’s up to tis! Shy an arm, shy a leg. . . . W hich way, Tip?”—reaching for his gun and sobbing. “Which way? Come. . . . Hie. . . . H ere!” Footprints in the muck gave him a lead. H e walked bent over, following the sign in the soft forest mould, dog on three legs, whimpering with hurt, a t his heels. W est had been running. His foot-' prints were far apart and deep. Tliat made trailing easy, but it m eant that he was gaining on this feeble pursuit of cripples. K erry breathed through dry and open lips. He staggered once and stopped, leaning against a tree, look ing backward, He had come such a little way! “Up to us . . he panted. " . . . us cripples. . . . H ie on, T ip!” The dog looked into his face and, wiih a moan, dropped his mnzzle to the ground, sniffling. H e reeled as he lurched along; his tongue lolled but he was trailing and his tall was up! Young began to laugh, a bit crazily. “The old dauber’s up!" he gasped. “It’3 still up. . . . He can’t beat us, chum! Not on your life.” He reeled along after the dog. Now and then he could see the trail him self; a t other times sickness engulfed him, the trees swung and tilted craz ily, he could scarcely see Tip. B ut he kept on, up a gentle rise, out onto a limestone ridge.'. Tip was snuffling wildly, there, tail motionless. Then he found what he was following again. W ith a whimper, half of pain, half of delight, he stag gered forward, his master, dragging the rifle by its muzzle, close behind. K erry walked that way for a month, a year, a generation. He fell and cut his lips. H e bumped into a tree with his wounded shoulder and screamed from the pain. Tip looked back and stopped and waited. W hen thg man got up to him again he went on, trail ing like a hound! Time and distance and pain meant nothing . . . until they came to a stop. Perhaps it was the respite from the effort of movement, perhaps the t o peratlve demand for alertness from deep in him that brought K erry slowly out of that numb state. . . . Anyhow, he saw that they had come to a clear ing and he w as halted on its-edge, Tip, nose uplifted, before him. A building was swimming before his eyes, like a Imoving m irage.. . . H e laughed and cut the laughter short because th at was Townline cabin and through the open door he could see movement that was no trick of his vagrant senses. A man in there was flinging things to the floor, dropping to his knees be side them, making wild, extravagant motions as he crammed articles into a pack sack. Young closed one eye tight ly to concentrate on recognition. The man was unm istakably Tod W est. K erry staggered on a few steps, try ing to get the rifle to his shoulder with one arm. He could not do it. The thing was a trem endous and unwieldy weight. He needed a rest for the bar rel. . . . Yonder was a rock and he lurched toward it. An upstanding slab of limestone, it was, split by frost with a crack into which he could have laid his arm. But lie did not try to lay his arm there. He laid the rifle barrel in the opening and stretched himself labori ously on his belly. Carefully he sighted on the doorway and worked his tongue in his parched mouth, striving to conjure m oisture there so his speech might be good. “Put up your hands!” he croaked. “I’ve got you covered and—’’ W est reared on his knees, rigid. Young’s finger was on the trigger, eady to thw art any move. . . . And then his man was out of sight, throw ing himself sideways along the floor. K erry fired and the shock of recoil sent fresh agonies through his body. He saw a leg of the table, on the far side of the room and opposite the door way, splinter. . . . Then silence. When he rallied the strength, he called; “Come out, W est! I'll give you one chance!” No response. “Come out!” he tried to shout, but his voice broke. . . On that W est spoke: “To hell with you, Young!” K erry drew a great breath which tore at his wound. So that w as it. W est had confidence. Desperate, he would be defiant. The only means of exit were on this side: the door and the one window. So long as he could remain in this position and keep his eyes and mind clear, W est could not emerge. . . . But how long would that be? Tod W est spoke again. “I’ll w ait you out, Y oung!” he taunt ed. “When you’ve bled enough, I'll finish the jo b !" He shut his teeth and tried to pray because he could feel a renewed trickle of blood down his side. “Oh, God,” he began, mumbling, “give me strengtii to scotch this snake! Oh, God, let me hold out to save for Nan w hat’s hers! . . . Please, God!” Tip, beside him, moaned and trem bled and began licking at his leg again. Thereafter was no speech, no move ment for a long interval. The shadows shifted beneath the march of the sun. He Reeled Along After the Dog. A fly droned about his head. His tongue ^vas so parched that it seemed it would crack. Then suddenly he w as aw are of faint stirrings within the cabin and some thing flashed across the doorway. W est had crossed to the window end of the cabin and K erry fired again, aimlessly. ‘Still awake, eh?" W est jeered. “Look your last Or, I'll'trade with you. Throw your rifle Into the clear ing and I’ll give-you my word I’ll not come near—” K erry fired again and a window pane pulverized. He heard the other cursing sharply and knew he had not been wrong; the suggestion of a shadow against the glass had been West, cau tiously peering out. . . . It was agony to pum p in another cartridge. His left arm lay cold and lifeless beside him but his shoulder burned .and ,throbbed, He got a box of shells out of his pocket somehow and stuffed the magazine full. Black ness hovered over him for a moment. He tried to reason things out. H e could not last much longer. Loading his gun had started the blood again. W hen the bleeding sapped hiin low enough, or when night fell, W est could slip out and be gone forever. . . . W hat was It N an had said 'ab o u t W est and the country beyond? . . . Oh, y es! W est knew it like a book. He was the only one who knew it. Once In it, then, the Downer account against 'him, ’ both • In blood: andt money - m ight well be w ritten off. If he only had help, if Nan or E zra or any of them only knew where he was. B ut they did not. All they knew was that he was hunting a bee tree He was alone . he and Tip were alone. . . . H e held his eyes on the cabin ana kept the rifle butt to his good shoulder with his own. H is n g ht hand T e n t out to .Tip. caressing the short,, curly hair, and. the dog w hined- not from pain; It w as. an lflqiilring,'.concerned whine and he stared hard into his m as ter’s face. “Tip I You’re got it . . . to d o ! Kerry whispered. “Tough, w ith that leg, but It’s her only chance. Maybe my only chance. . . . You've got it to do for N fln! U nderstand? Fo* N an!” • The dog’s nose began to quirk and his tail moved slightly. “H ear me, Tip? • (God, I can’t tell w hether I’m yelling or w hispering!) H ear me?”—gripping the coat and shaking the dog a little. “Go to Nan, Tip! Go to N an! . . . HIe on! To Nan . . . N an!’’ H e shoved a t the wounded anim al and Tip rose painfully to his feet, star ing incredulously a t his m aster. “Nan?” he seemed to be asking. “Go away, n;ith you in a jam like this? Not oil your life, chum ! I’m sticking! I got only three legs left but w hen hell's poppin’ around you my place is here!” Again Young spoke: “H ie on! NaiV I said I” The -snvagery in his voice made the dog’s ears drop meekly. “Go to N an! Don’t you hear? W ill you please . . . get a-going . . . on your way?" He had raised him self to his elbow, thrusting his face close to the dog, snarling the words. Surprised and shocked Tip slunk away. He licked his chops and wag* gled his tail apologetically. Never be fore In his life had he been addressed so. At a little distance he halted as though expecting to have K erry relent. “Nan, I sa id ! Go to N an !” H is eyes were glowing with fever, now. “H ie I Go o n ! Go find Nan, I tell y ou!” He picked up a pebble and clumsily shied it a t Tip, groaning from the pain it gave. W ith a protesting little whimper, that one leg dragging uselessly, the ragged bone ends biting into raw flesh at every move, the dog made his way slowly through the brush. Shortly he came out to the road he had traveled before. He stood there and gave a long look backward. Then he limped gin gerly across the first ru t and, panting from the effort, set out to do his mas ter’s biddiDg. . . . C H A P T E R XVI And now a man fights to retain con sciousness. He fights to keep his eyes open, to stifle the buzzing in his head, to down the nausea which grips his vitals. H e shouts a w arning; he shoots again; he hears a harsh laugh. . . . Something strange about the window, now ; som ething moves there. . . . Or are his eyes up to tricks again? No, something coming across the sill, pok ing out, long and dull. . . . A rifle bar rel, thrusting tow ard him, and the sill beneath it splinters as he squeezes the trigger of his own weapon. The other gun is hastily draw n; W est curses breathlessly. Then a long silence, w ith no sound "but the “weakening pound of pulses In his ears. A fter a time, another sound, a steady, distant, sm all noise. . . . Then a sliver appears a t the edge of a log below the' cabin, window. Fresh wood gleams in the sun lig h t.. . . K erry w aits and w atches, roused to a m easure of keenness. H e shuts one eye again to stop seeing double. Yes, it is the glitter of a knife blade, w ork ing in the wood. Soon the hole it makes will be large enough to let the rifle muzzle rest there. H e takes deliberate aim, this time, and a great chunk files from the log a hand’s breadth from w here W est w as cutting. H e hears a scram ble and a succession of oaths. “You can’t last, Young!” W est calls. “W ill you trade?” “To hell with you!” he cries, trying to put strong scorn into the words, but Tod W est laughs. “Your voice is a w him per!” he says. ‘T give you another half hour. . . .

Oi tM WASHINGTON * 7 b nil iiiiiiHiiiiiinrri' “Federal Triangle” in Washington. Prepared by the National Geographic Society.Washington. 0. c.—WNU Service. T H E annual spring rush of tour ists to W ashington is on. In the N ation’s C apital even the perennial visitor is greeted with som ething new to enjoy. This year new buildings, recently opened, In and near the g reat triangle betw een the Capitol and the Ellipse, will be a fea ture of a tour of the city. Gaze down upon the modern W ash ington from an airplane. As always, the sim ple grandeur of the W hite House, the Capitol, the Lincoln Me1 m orial, and the tow ering W ashington m onum ent draw the eye and m ake the heart beat faster. B ut near them new wonders have appeared. Q uietly and steadily, w ith so little fuss th at residents w ere hardly aw are of it, thousands of carloads of stone and m etal—whole m ountains in the aggregate—have been hauled into the city and reared into m onum ental build ings. A cres and acres of old, unsightly structures have been razed on Capitol Hill, around its base, and along broad, historic Pennsylvania avenue. In their place stretch parks, wide boulevards, or long, handsom e houses of govern m ent. In the angle form ed by the intersec tion of Pennsylvania avenue and the new C onstitution avenue, beautiful Champs-Glysees or R ue de Rlvoli of W ashington, rises a m ighty wedge of m asonry, th e fam ed “F ederal T ri angle,” eight blocks long. this single group is the m ost am azing collection of governm ent buildings- th a t the w orld has seen. They m ake their own w eather. In hottest sum m er the a ir Inside is cooled to the tem perature of a fine spring, day. B eneath the roofs of this T riangle w ork nearly 20,000 governm ent em ployees, about as m any as the entire population of B atavia, N. X., or Day tona Beach, Fla. Every day dozens of people get lost in its 20 m iles of corridors. Massive and Beautiful. In sheer size the cluster of buildings is staggering, even from high above. It is as if half a dozen o r m ore - of New York’s tallest skyscrapers have been laid on their sides, form ed into a blunted arrow head, and cut and tw ist ed to m ake courts and wings. One unit—the Commerce departm ent—is longer than the C hrysler building is tall. B ut It is not m erely an Im pression of bigness th at one has in the w an dering plane. Long ranks of ma jestic columns, graceful arcades, a wide plaza, and solid rock w alls give a beauty and sim plicity th at m ake these enorm ous new com ers fit com panions for the classic W hite House and Capitol. T he airplane turns, and far off in the distance, beyond the Capitol dome, appears a gleam ing w hite m arble tem ple, com parable in beauty even to the noble Lincoln M emorial. This is the new United States Suprem e C ourt building, the only real home of its own th at the nation’s highest court has had. F or the first tim e In Am erican his tory a citizen now m ight gaze upon the separate, perm anent abodes of the three branches of bis governm ent— legislative, the C apitol; executive, the W hite House, and now, for the Judi cial, long sheltered In the old senate cham ber, this tem ple whose dignity and im pressiveness m atch the m ajesty of the law Itself. Suspended In History. A s you cruise about, other splendid w hite buildings appear, new jew els In the fam iliar setting along the Poto mac. Beyond th e Lincoln shrine the new A rlington M emorial bridge links north and south. Down th e V irginia shore of the winding river a wide AppIan way, the M ount Vernon M emorial high way leads to the home and tom b of the F ather of his Country. From the steps of the Capitol all the way down to the river, two and a third miles away, sweeps a broad stretch of tree-dotted park land.. Gone is much of the mushroom growth u t tem porary wartime stRictures. : Their removal gives new beauty to this Mali main feature of the grand plan con ceived by the Revolutionary soldier- artist, MaJ. Pierre Charles L’Enfant when he laid out this city with broad. sweeping, prophetic strokes to be the capital of a vast country. Hanging between earth and sky, you seem suspended In history,-; halfway betweenthe past and the unfathom able Jfltore. .

D- Member ot Faculty, Moody Btbla Institute ot Chicago.© WesternNewspaperUnloa. - L e s s o n f o r M a y 3 JESU S TEACHES FORGIVENESS, HUM ILITY AND GRATITUDE LESSON TEXT—Luke 17:1-19.GOLDEN TEXT—Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, . forgiving one another, even as God for C hrist’s sake hath forgiven you.—Ephesians 4:32. PRIMARY TOPIC—The Man Who Said Thank You. r JUNIOR TOPIC — The Man Who Thanked Jesus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC — Three M arks ot Christian Strength. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC. — Three M arks of Christian Strength, I. Forgiveness, a Christian Obligation (vv. 1-4). Owing to the fundam ental fact of bum an Individuality, the perversion by sin, and the power and wickedness of the devil, offenses, or occasions of stum bling, are bound to come. Because m ankind is fallen and sin reigns In in dividual hearts, the results are bound to reveal them selves, but Jesus pro nounces “woe” upon those whose evil deeds become a stum bling stone in the way of others, especially “one of these little ones.” The follower of C hrist is to take beed th at his life be not injurious, but th at it be exem plary. The believer is to cultivate the forgiving spirit tow ard the wrongdoer, w hile rebuking the wrong. G reat skill and grace are re quired to rebuke one for wrongdoing, revealing a t the sam e tim e the forgiv ing spirit, so as to win him instead of exasperating him. II. Humility, a C hristian Q uality (vv. 5-10). H um ility is at the heart of this trio of C hristian graces. Much faith is re quired to establish and m aintain hu m ility. H um an nature impels one to push others aside, to struggle for su premacy, to reach the exalted positions in life. H um ility moves one to seek the lowly place, w hile giving places of honor to others, and being sincerely happy when others are granted the pre ferred positions. Surely, for this one m ust have faith in God. III. G ratitude, an Uncommon Grace (w . 11-19). The account of the ten lepers Is per haps the m ost used Bible portion in enforcing the lesson of gratitude as against ingratitude. T here are a num ber of things to be considered, if we are fully to understand the call for gratitude. 1. T heir aw ful affliction (v. 12). They w ere lepers. In th at day no greater tragedy could befall one than to be thus afflicted. It was regarded as contagious and Incurable. The af flicted person became a social outcast, and w as avoided and neglected. The M osaic law provided for segregation (Lev. 13:46). Leprosy has alw ays been regarded as typical of sin, and a t times as visit ed upon Individuals because of sin. Exam ples: the leprosy of N aam an (II Kings 5 ); Gehazi (II Kings 5 ); M iriam (Num. 12); Uzziah (II Kings 15:5). Leprosy may lay long dorm ant, and then m ake a sudden appearance; so w ith sin. Leprosy waxes w orse and w orse; so w ith sin. And the end of sin is death. 2. T heir cry for mercy (v. 13). The ten recognized their great need, and th a t no hum an help w as available. Testim onies th at had floated to their hearing told of a great H ealer, and when H e cam e their way they were not slow to m ake their prayer to him. The faith of the lepers "immediately revealed itself In acting upon the in structions of Jesus th at they go, and show them selves to the priest. W hile they weDt they w ere cleansed. They w ere to obey the Old Testam ent re quirem ent for the recording of their cleansing, th at they need no longer be outcasts. The sinner m ay find salva tion along the path of daily duty, If he w ill but believe. 3. T heir differing attitudes following healing (vv. 15-19). a. The gratitude of the one (vv. 15, 16) is beautiful and Inspiring. H e is referred to as “this stranger,” evident ly a Gentile, but so deep w as his. grati tude he hastened back to Jesus to give thanks. The one who m ight be least expected to show gratitude w as the one who sincerely expressed it. ■ b. The nine who neglected (vv. 17-19), who failed to glye thanks, have through the centuries been charged w ith ingratitude.

B y W IL L IA M C . U T L E Y B EFORE the recent naval conference began in London it was a foregone conclusion that nothing in the way of a treaty agreement between the principal powers limiting or reducing the quantity of naval armaments would result. Prevention of a world naval race was the highest hope held out by any of the dele gates. Conditions were uncertain with war clouds brooding over Eu rope, Asia and Africa, and with Japan already having announced her intention to break the 5-5-3 ratio of the old Washington and London pacts. Predictions were correct. Old trea-<$- ties were scrapped at St. Jam es’ pal ace. B ut out of the wreckage of for m er treaties arose a new idea which gives fair promise of bringing a solu tion to the problem of meeting chang ing international conditions over the years—a problem which all too often renders long-term treaties with rigid lim itations im practical. Even more im portant is the tendency of the new plan to do away with na tions’ Inherent distrust of one another. Under its precepts the signatory na tions, rather than conceal their naval building program s (often because such program s are out of line with treaty lim itations), furnish one another with complete inform ation each year as to the entire building program s which they plan for that year. No Q uantitative Lim its. Under the "inform ational” plan there are no lim its on the number of ships any nation can build—although there tion by the U nited States senate Is ex pected, although there was some alarm on this point because of notes ex changed by B ritain’s Anthony Eden and America’s Davis. W hile the notes ostensibly are merely a “gentlemen’s agreem ent” to m aintain the naval par ity principle between the United States and G reat Britain, they have in some quarters been suspected of being, in effect, an out and out alliance be tween the two countries. Should the senate regard these notes in the latter vein, ratification of the treaty would undoubtedly be less certain. It would be a mistake, naval authori ties point out, to suppose that the treaty in itself will provide any important re sults. Its importance lies, rather, in the new trend of naval bargaining which it establishes. Because no ratios are defined, and no quantitative lim itations prescribed, nations are not likely to be offended New U. S. Destroyers Cassin and Shaw Being Launched From Philadelphia Navy Y ards as Fleet Is Increased. ^ are lim its upon the size of the ships. B ut when the building inform ation is subm itted each year, it is believed that the various nations will be able to ef fect annual agreem ents which will be m utually satisfactory. To the lay ob server it m ight appear that the notifi cation principle m ight hasten a naval race rather than deter i t B ut dele gates to the London conference were inclined to the opposite view. Norman H. Davis, the American dele gate, said th at the forem ost accom plishm ents of the new treaty were “the provisions which for the first tim e in troduce the principle of advance notifi cation of building program s combined w ith a rigid and detailed system of ex change of inform ation.” In his speech a t the signing cere mony, Davis said: l4IFe have undertaken to keep each oth er informed not only of our current con struction in navies, but also of our pro jected construction. We undertake to noti fy each other of all vessels which we con template laying down. Anyone who thinks for a moment will realize the mani fest advantages of ■ such an undertaking- Dread of the unknown has been a seri ously disturbing factor in international relations. "The fear of w hat your neighbor is about to do causes distrust and sus picion which may In turn lead to a com petitive Increase In arm am ents. We hope to elim inate this fear In respect of naval arm am ents by telling each other frankly and honestly in advance of our intentions. We believe that such an act will tend so to regulate the rapidity and development of the con struction of one nation th at It cannot be regarded as a= menace to others.” H ope Japan Will. Sign. The treaty w as signed by G reat Brit- : ain, France and the United -States. Japan is going to sign the subm arine protocol agreed to during the negotia tions. Italy, It Is believed; will sign the entire treaty before the year Is o u t It Is hoped that Japan will also sign I t Assuming that the proper bodies In each of the signatory, nations will rat ify the treaty, It will become effective J a n u a r y I, 1937, which Is the day af ter the treaties of W ashington In 1920 and London in 1931 expire. Ratiflca- by being regarded as inferior. N either will nations which sign the treaty be restricted from building over quantita tive lim itations should they find them selves suddenly plunged into a war. Under the W ashington and old London treaties the signatory nations were bound to stay within certain Umits re gardless of the way in which their re lations with non-signatory nations v b expected that these lists will be “padded” every year so that the actual loss in any bargaining which follows will be unim portant. ----- Further, four m onths before the keel of any fighting ship is laid, all signa tories m ust be duly notified as to its intended category, its displacement, di mensions, speed designed, type of m a chinery, type of fuel, accurate num ber and caliber of all guns over three inches, approxim ate num ber of guns under three inches, provision for mine laying, torpedo tubes and the number of aircraft which can be carried. W hen the keel is actually laid notice musk immediately be given, as it m ust again when the ship is completed. If during the construction changes In design of any ship are altered, notification m ust also be given for these changes. Notification is not necessary upon ships of the auxiUary type, such as hospital ships, repair ships, tankers, transports and the like, or upon craft of less than 100 tons burden. Ex changes of lists of all such minor ships are called for, however, when the treaty goes into effect. Com petition C ost Reduced The lim itations which the treaty Im poses upon the sizes of ships and their guns are designed to reduce the cost of competition in naval building, by making it more uniform. These lim ita tions are modified by a number of “escape” clauses which are Inserted to make provisions for extraordinary cir-, cumstances, such as war. Success or failure of the “information al “ plan depends greatly upon how well the nations, even those who did not sign, stay within the qualitative limitations of the treaty. Should Japan depart drastical ly from these limitations in her new naval building it is almost certain that the worth of A e treaty would be reduced, for the United States and Great Britain are not only agreed to maintain the S- 5-3 ratio by keeping pace with Japan’s building, but would have to design their new building programs to offset the com petition in the Far East. The size lim it for battleships remains a t 35,000 tons, because of the need for th at type of ship In the United States navy, with its extensive coast lines to defend; minimum is 17,500 tons. Guns are limited to 14-iDch size tentatively; If Japan’s new ships carry 16-inch guns, the lim it will move up two inches. There, is ,a second category of battle ships which has been created for the nations whose purses, will not perm it the giant capital ships. This “B” cate gory comprises ships of not more than 8,000 tons with guns of a t least 10-inch dim ension.. Large-C ruiser “ Holiday.” Under the division of “light surface vessels” come three classes: (a) Ships up to 10,000 tons carrying 8-inch guns; (b) ships from 3,000 to 8,000 tons car rying not over 6.1-inch guns, and (c) ships under 3,000 tons carrying not over 5.1-inch guns. No construction will be perm itted be tween the minimum of 17,500 tons for capital ships and the top lim it of cruis ers of 10,000 tons. Since a “holiday” has been declared on the construction of 10,000-ton cruisers for six years, the non-construction zone will actually ex ist between 8,000 and 17,500 tons. The United States, which prefers the larger, type of cruiser, will begin building some of the 10,000-ton class when the "holiday” is over. The existing treaties declare a limit of 1,850 tons, but tkis has been thrown into the discard beiause France and I Parade of British Home Fleet Five Miles Long Is Led by G iant H- M. S.

The sen ator’s friends were Frank Knox elated because, w ith out organization, he carried a iarjje part of the state oulside of Chicago. This preferential vote is purely ad visory and neither man has a slate of delegates to the national convention. The result makes it certain that Knos will make a respectable showing on the Hrst roll call, Tt also adds to Borah’s prestige and aids him in the coming Ohio primary. Gov. Henry Horner, seeking renom- lnation, was victorious in the bitter fight with the regular Democratic or ganization and the FCelly-Nash ma chine In Chicago, which had thrown him overhoard and supported Runde- sen for governor. The Democrats al most unanimously voted for the re- nomination of Senator Jam es Hamil ton Lewis, and the Republicans named Form er Senator Otis GTenn to oppose him in November. Repuidican leaders in W ashington were encouraged to believe the in ternecine w arfare in the TiemocratIc ranks would help the Republicans to carry the state. The Democratic sages, on the other hand, liked the showing of strength made by Borah, feeling his liberal following might switch to Roosevelt In Novemher if the G.

O ne o f th e m ain reasons why the m em ories linger on, w here those mem ories involve AAA is M ichigan's R e publican Senator A rthur £L Vanrten- berg. Senator V andenberg never did get K ithnsiastle about the m erits of A A t as they w ere expounded by Sec retary W allace, AdminfsDaitor Chester D avis a n d other New Deal spokesmen and when th e Suprem e c o u rt of the U nited S tates threw o u t th e process ing taxes upon which th e law w as pred icated: Senator V andenberg was Sn a delightful sp o t from, a political stand p o in t He has n o t found i t necessary to say “I told you so” and has had. I im agine; a g re a t deal o f personal fun In sim ply hinting to o r rem inding oth e rs of his previous stand. B u t i t w as not until the M ichigan senator began pulling figures out of his senatorial hat, show ing how bene fit paym ents from th e A IA had gone to great and w ealthy corporations In sum s as high as a m illion dollars or m ore th a r h e held a key to the New Deal skeleton clo set Tliey know now. however, exactly w hat he m eant when he announced in the senate several week3 ago th a t no such plan as the AAA could be adm inistered w ithout vasr snm s being distributed in w hat he term ed unw arranted paym ents— unw arranted from the standpoint of help fo r th e sm aller farm ers: Secretary W allace stalled off Sen ato r V andenberg’s dem and in the sen a te for a com plete ITsr o f beneficiaries who received Cheek3 from AAA In ex cess o f one thousand, dollars for qnite a w hile but there w ere too many sen ators- who believed a s S enator Vanilen- berg did. th at tlie truth ongiit to he known- O f course, as- th e procedure usually goes In W ashington, m any things a re done w ithout actual force being: used. Tt w as rim s in the case of the AAA paym ents. Dem ocratic senators who foresaw th eir inability to prevent a senate vote dem anding a list o f AAA paym ents persnnded Mr. W allace to m ake public the list voluntarily and it w as done ju st in advance of senate action. So. we now have for the first time, a t least, an in dication o f tlie grotesqne resnlis of th e agricultural adjustm ent adm inis tration program that w as hailed from th e A tlantic to the Pacific as an ideal plan. * • • T he dynam ite in the situation lies In the fact th at there w ere dozens. e v e n hnndreda. of D y n o n o to corporations w h ic h in I t received AAA checks am ong the big boun ties paid to induce curtailm ent of basic foreign crops. This would nor he so bad except fo r the fact that the bril lian t pkm ners o f the AAA continuous ly stressed, its value to the sm all, debt ridden farm ers: -Thrniighont the tim e the law w as under consideration and through the two years- o f its opera tion. never did Mr. W allace nr Mr. Davfs faff to point out In their ninner ou s stieeclies how greal sum s o f money, collected Iff, processing taxes, w ere be ing distributed to thousands o f farm era and th a t these paym ents w ere In tim e Ktiiiig to pnt agriculture on its Collective feet. Now-, however, the truth or th eir Statem ents lots been proved tint when th e w hole truth, had been exposed on the floor- o f the senate, it w as found to go fa r beyond the sm all, debt rid- djca farm ers; T h e Whole tru th disclosed.
