A fter renting I heard that it was the policy of the government to allow needy and deserving people to go on this land and farm it to raise their own food and to raise feed for- their livestock and chickens.

H ardly a day,passes with out some paper carrying a story pi whatever else may be wrong with the New Deal the farm program,(is universally accepted. "'-H*" Events in New jersey show that this is not a true picture of the. case. In the Township of West Amwell thirty-four farmers have signed a resolution, which is a ‘ ‘call upon our fellow farmers t Uoughoui the United States.’’ The -resolu tion reads, “ W e the undersigned farmers of W est Amwell T ow nshit declare we will not be bribed to’pg't the control of our farm s at tne dis posal of the Governm ent of tip United States, and therefore solemn^ Iy pledge ourselves not to enter in to the so called ‘soil conservatioh’- but actual vote solicitation’ blit /ac? tual vote solicitation scheme of the. new A A A and hereby call upon our fellow farm ers throughout .the United Stares to join us iu resisting this new attem pt to control and re^ gulate the lives of the .AmeticsSg people.” ’ .. M N ot satisfied w ith this alone the farm ers of W est AmwelI TownshTg wrote to Secretary of A griculture! H enry A. W allace, as follow ^ “ The men and women signing this declaration and their forebears have worked their farm s according;;;to sound soil conservation m ethodsfoj a much longer tim e than any O:,^ now living can jrem e^ber. _ J ^ ° ||||a0 do: som ething about it. „ ; , pver^thejM roS^teeK an d ^ th ey ^ B i - ri tend to: retain their freedom and pass it unimpaired to their children. T heir lot in life' is as hard as that of tbe average farm er any where * * * Furtherm ore, they realize that a T reasury which passes out doles to every section of the population that calls for them will in no long time, exhaust both its funds and its credit and, in the ensuing crash,, bring down to ruin those who have look ed to it for bounties no less than those who have been taxed for iis support. W est Amwell Township believes that every pot that is able to do so should stand on its own bottom and that politicians should not be perm itted to invite those groups in the population whose favor they wish to carry to dip their hands into the public treasury.” H ere is the voice of the Ameri can farm er speaking against .the new “soii .conservation,” . because he feels it is a bribe to win his vote. To him the ?cbeme is almost iden tical with, the outlawed triple A. Of course he admits that the hew triple-A does not include coercion Farm ers who produce more than the Governtpent plans for them will not be sent to jail T he Supreme Court lifted the th reat'o f criminal action against; such violation. But as one political commentator said, “ the payment- is based directly upon the amount of wheat which theTarjper promises not to raise. It is the old triple-A dressed up in a brand new uniform and bearing a popular name ” Of- course, there can be no ob jections to the theory of soil con servation as such, any more than there can be objections to sunshine or happiness. T he efficiept farmers in the past have always practiced it, and in m any cases the soil on thetr farm s is better today than it has ever been. The objection comes from a belief that in this plan a good project has : been Eooliedt t0 a bad one. T h a tth e laudable and cessary effort of conseving the soil has been tied up to the inexcusable practicing of buying votes. The farm er of W est Amwell heartily endorsed the idea of soil conservation.. Those ot them who are not already taking steps to pre* serve the wealth in their land, are: •o W here it is money that holds them back, they will gladly accept reasonable governmental.assistance But they waut such money to have 10 .strings tied to it. They want it <0 save soil, not votes ■ This is another exam ple of the sort of thing that is swinging mil lions of voters awav from the Roose velt camp, a further example that the New Deal does not do a good thing simply for the good that it will bring, but-for some other and ofteu •iidden reason. The people of America have gotten, to a point where thev suspect that every time the adm inistration offers them a piece of money, it is a bribe for s -mething that is to ■ come. Such schemes as this so called soil- con servation act show that "their sus picions are well founded. Once more we see that what the New Deal stys it will do is a long way from what it means to do. The meeting at W est A.mwell has lead to wide discussion among the f irmers of the country. The Penn sylvania Dutcu. who ignored the old Triple- A are planning to do tikewise with the new one. This W est ATr- w-Urevolt will spread.—T he Trum peter Another Civil War. Seventy years after the close of the war between the states, another fight is on between the N orth and the South. The exodus of industry from the N orth to the South is giv ing great concern to our northern brothers and they are taking steps It Just Doesn’t Work. All want higher standards of living. AU want larger salaries and wages. That desire has been reflected in laws uid regulations designed to achieve hat happy end. Unfortunately, basic facts are of ten forgotten. On the theory that higher prices would result in higher wages, we have been given laws re stricting the production of necessi ties. We have voted laws restricting or penalizing methods of distributing necessities that lower prices through greater efficiency, faster turnover, and smaller profits, in' an effo; t or encourage less efficient business. But the-only income that counts to an individual is “real income” income measured in the light of purchasing power. A dollar is nothing but a measure of value. Two dollars that will buy twenty pounds o'f sugar are not as valuable as one dollar which will buy twenty-five. This is not an argum ent for forcing prices down to profitless levels It is an argum ent against laws or pac tices which force prices, directly or indirectly, to artificial levels, to the detrim ent of the public. It.is an es tablished fact that purchasing power always lags far behind law-made boosts in price structures. If it is made illegal to distribute and sell products in the most economic man ner. the 125 million American con sumers are going to suffer. Supp y and demand is still the ec onomic law. It cannot be circum vented without courting disaster.

They included several kinds of manufactories. O ur intorm ant did not know ju st what strategy m ight be used to re cover the lost factories, but be.said even the government was taking a hand in it. H e did not have a ve_ry encourag ing outlook for the textile business at present in the face of probable legislation to get such a large portion of the profits from m anufacturing. There is no inducement for the mill owners to try to do business if they find they have to turn over about eighty per-cent of their profits to the government for tax. It was cited that tbe government does -not reciprocate by assum ing any of the loss when the mills have a reversal of profit tak in g ."

CLYDE CAME TO TOWN. The Hon. Clyde Roark H oey1 who dwells in the red hills of Cleve land county, came to Mocksville last Tuesday afternoon, and spent two hours. Despite this fact, the sun still rises in the east and sets in the west. About 4 0 0 democrats and Republicansfilled thecourt house, to hear this magi-: speaker, who says that he has been fighting the battles of democracy for the past 4 0 years without getting any pie. Clyde forgot that he. was once a member of Congrpss. and that he also represented Cleveland county in the legislature. But be that as * it may, Clyde made a good speech It took two Davie county democrats and one ex-Cleveland countv demo crat to introduce this noble office- seeker to the big crowd present. Clyde didn’t mention Sandy G raham or John McRae, but spent much time lam basting Dr. McDon aid, the Forsyth man who wants a New Deal in this state. H e . failed to say whether he would support McDonald, if he were nominated, A fter looking over his audience he decided that discretion was the bet ter part of valor and failed to men tion how he stood ou the liquor question. The speaker said be would recommend that the legisla ture appropriate $ 6 0 0 0 0 0 to pur chase books for the 9 0 0 ,0 0 0 school children in the state, so th at every child would have an equal chance to get an education. This would mean that each child would get only 75 cents worth of books each year, when even the simplest person pres ent, knew that the cost of school books for even the first grade stu dent costs more than twice this amount and for high school students ten to twenty times this amount. If we have misquoted Clyde, it is a m istake of the head and not of the, heart. T he speakersaid that the democratic party had built hard surface roads in every'county in the state from county seat to county seat. Clyde didn’t use the highway from M ocksvilleto Yadkinville. If we are not badly mistaken, and can believe the editor of a democratic newspaper, Transylvania county, in W estern N orth Carolina, hasn't a single mile of hard surface road built or m aintained by the state. C ly d esay sh eisg o in g to b eth en ex t governor of N orth Carolina, We don’t dispute this fact, for with plenty of money and the great par ty machine behind hltn he is going to be hard to defeat. : H e is one ot the greatest orators N orth Carolina has produced since the days of Zeb Vance, Tom Settle, Chas. B. Aycock . and R. Z. Linney. If McDonald should be nominated for governor, Clyde will have to vote the Republi can gubernatorial ticket, because we feel sure he would not support m an for this high office whom he and his followers claim would bank rupt the state.-close the schools and kill the democratic party. It will only be a few days until the first g reaj^attle ls_oyer,, apd the second Craver Uoder Bond. . W illiam Craver, young white man of W inston Salem, was arrested in that city early W ednesday morning charged with the theft of two suit cases and contents,-valued at $5 0 0 , from a room in the Mocksville Hotel.

With the new conquest, the population of her African colonies rises from 2.5 persons to the square mile to 10.5 persons to the square mile. She now controls nearly 1,267,000 square miles of Africa, with a population of 13,350,000 persons. Belgium's territory, while It Is large, consists almost entirely of equatorial jungle, which is not at the present very valuable. What its worth will be when and if the jungle of the Belgian Congo is ever cleared, is unknown. There are not many people able to exist in these 920,000 square miles, the popu lation being about ten persons to the square mile, with a total of 9,584,000. Spain's Share Sparsely Settled. Even more sparse is the population of Portugal’s several African colonies, chief among which are Angola, border ing the Atlantic coast to the south of the Belgian Congo, and Mozambique along the Indian ocean on the main land opposite Madagascar.

Spain’s 140,000 square miles of Afri can territory, chiefly in Morocco and on the Atlantic seaboard west of the Sahara, are inhabited by only about 900,000 persons, or 6.5 to the square mile. The popular conception that colonies in Africa offer the European colonizing nations an outlet for their excess popula tions has been proved more or less false. IVith all the colonization and empire building of 400 years, only one person in 50 on the African continent today is white. There are in all only about 3,000,- OOO whites. - It is also doubtful that the Dark Continent and its people present any great market for goods manufactured In Europe.

But Italian people are ap parently not so willing to become col onists In an unpleasant and uncom fortable land. In Eritrea, which has been Italian now for. 50 years, there are only about 100 colonists. The entire Ogaden area, with the prov inces of Boran and Bale, so completely conquered by the forces of General Grazi- ani, are of little or no value, being princi pally desert. He has not yet moved into the rich agricultural regions of the Arusst plateau, although that is scheduled to be his next step. ( Cotton and other forms of agricul ture are considered possible in Ogaden, but only If extensive and expensive ir rigation is provided. That-is true of, most of the regions which Italy has conquered in Ethiopia—they must, if they are to be of much value, be de veloped by tremendous outlays of cap ital, and fresh capital is a commodity in which Italy is lacking to a disturb ing- degree, especially since her trade has been pinched by the sanctions placed upon her by members of the, Eeague of 'Nations. - - . — There has been some, romantic gos sip of vast oil deposits in Ethiopia, es pecially in the Ogaden district, but these have been largely denied by the facts. What mineral resources are present will be found for the larger part in the Danakil country to the northeast, but even these are uncer tain. There is some salt, which Italy mined during the war—at a cost all out of proportion to its value in peace times. Italy Must Aid Colonists. The Important part of Ethiopia is the central plateau, whose population is the traditional enemy of the tribes on the outskirts below. Here it is that Mussolini plans to put most of his colonists. The country is agricultural ly rich and the climate, while it is not pleasant to white people by any means, is at least livable. While the plateau may be said to be conquered, it is not yet entirely occupied by Italian armies, the Gojjam and Shoa being still unoc cupied. If the colonization of the plateau is to be successful, the colonists must be given a great deal of aid by the moth er country. The fact that the colo nists will start from scratch will be a boon to Italian Industry, for the de mand for heavy goods for the building of a new nation should give millions more work. It Is believed that the colonists will be able to raise cereals and live stock, finding a market for them in Italy and selling them for prices which will be higher than the world market for the same goods. One of the principal problems facing the new Ethiopian emperor and his vice roy, General Badoglio, is what to do with the natives. It is hardly possible that they can be driven from the land; they cer tainly will not be allowed to compete with the colonists on equal terms, for they will be able to work for far smaller compensa tion, ike Italians being unable to compete with their low standard of living. The situation will be much the same as that which the Japanese peasants found in at tempting to. colonize Manchuria. With the exception of some little platinum and gold, the mineral re sources of Ethiopta are largely a fable. The wealth, if any, which it will add to Italy will have to be worked out of tlie land in hard Italian sweat—and with the capitalization of hundreds of millions . of dollars. Italy -hasn’t got the hundreds of millions. As a matter of fact, the war of con quest up to the capture of Addis Ababa and the flight of Emperor Haile Selas- sle had cost the-Italians approximately $900,000,000', or more than IOO times what the United States paid Russia for Alaska. The cost of pacifying the' coun try will bring the war bill over the bil lion dollar mark. But she has, now fulfilled what Mus solini says lias been the dream of Fascism for 15 years. Italy has become an empire, it sounds. big. And it earns Il Duce invaluable plaudits froni his people.© Western Newspaper Union. 3 New Beau—Sammy, I hope you put money in the bank regularly.

The able-bodied wilr be put to work, plows, spades and shovels supplied by Mussolini, with Italians telling the Ethiopians where and what to dig. That need not horrify us, for it Is what we have been doing in this country for a long time. It will be better for the Ethiopians than killing and selling each other into slavery. Americans ask three questions: "What is the news? Who won the game? Have you heard the story about —?” For that reason, the suc cessful newspaper pays attention first to the news, told accurately and vivid ly, then it concentrates on sport, then on humor. Such dry things as opin ions, editorials, books, in the rear. Fic tion ought to be number four, but good fiction is scarce and the other kind not worth printing. Anti-religious hatred persists In Spain. While Pope Pius In Rome was addressing representatives of Catholic newspapers, deploring Communism and the Hitler attitude toward the Catholic church and the Catholic press, a Span ish mob in Valencia was burning two Catholic churches, beautiful monuments of eaiiy days. Former indifference to religion has turned to actual hatred in many countries, and in those tiiat w.ere most deeply religious. A Kior Features Syndicate^ isu.WNU Service. N e w s R e v i e w o f C u r r e n t E v e n t s t h e W o r l d O v e r Congressional Qaizzers Stir Dr. Townsend to Wrath- Landon Has Big Bunch of Delegates—Guffey Coal Act Declared Invalid. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © Western Newspaper Union. Townsend. FOR two days Dr. Francis E, Town send replied mildly to the questions of the house committee investigating the activities of the organization be hind the old age pen sion movement which the doctor started. Then th e Californian lost his patience sud denly, refused to an swer any more “non sensical” queries, spoke of "thick-head ed congressmen,” de nounced the commit tee for its “unfriendly attitude” and asserted th e administration was a “hostile force” behind the inquiry. He declared he would form a third party after the November elections. Finally Doctor Townsend told the committee: “I am retiring from this sort of Inquisition and I do not pro pose to come back except under arrest And I do refuse absolutely to make any further statement regarding this movement to this committee.” Escorted by Gerald K. Smith, former adherent of Huey Long, and another man, the Californian fled from Wash ington to Baltimore. The committee decided to ask the house to cite him for contempt. When he was questioned regarding large sums contributed by Townsend club members the physician said the contributors had faith in him and that “we need millions to promote a move ment of this kind and we will get them.” His testimony developed that Doc tor Townsend, his brother, Walter Townsend, and GiImour Young own the assets of the Townsend organization, estimated now at about $60,000, and that Townsend club members have no property right in them. Doctor Townsend testified he has re ceived about $68,000 in salary, divi dends from the Townsend weekly and expenses, but now had only about $300 and his wife about $200 to show for their efforts. GOV. ALF LANDON captured near- . Iy all the New jersey delegates to the national convention, defeating Sen ator Borah about 4 to I in the popular vote. This victory gave the Kansan a total of more than 200 votes to start with at Cleveland, and his manager, John Hamilton, claimed he would have at least 300 of the 501 votes neces sary to nominate and would win on the second or third ballot The statement by Herbert Hoover taking himself out of consideration for the nomination is generally judged to have helped Landon. With Mr. Hoover out of the picture it will be difficult to hold California, Texas, and other po tentially Hoover votes away from Landon. 'James 'A. Farley, postmaster general and also Democratic national chair man, told the Michigan Democratic con vention he believed the Republican Presidential nominee will be “the gov ernor of a typical prairie state” and that his election, if he won, would be a “perilous experiment.” Farley criti cized the man be did not name as de void of experience in national affairs, and predicted that if he is the Repub lican standard bearer “even Kansas” will not be in the Roosevelt doubtful column. CONSTITUTIONALITY of the rail road retirement system was con tested before the District of Columbia Supreme court by attorneys represent ing the class I railroads and 289 lesser railway enterprises. The lawyers ar gued that the pension law and a tax law enacted at the same time are to gether “substantially the same” as the “unconstitutional railroad retirement act of 1934.” The two separate acts, one provid ing pensions and the other taxing the income of railroads and employees, were passed last year after the Su preme court ruled ''Iinconstitutlonal the 1934 law In which a levy and a pension system were combined. The government contended that the alleged relation between the two acts could not be proved, and that the rail roads were suing, In effect, to enjoin collection of a tax. Such a suit, the government contended, was barred by federal law. Tbe government further defended its railroad retirement sys tem as a® exercise of its constitutional power “to provide for the common de fense.” POSTPONEMENT of action on the Patman-Roblnson . chain store bill until next session was urged on the house rules committee in a letter from six powerful farm organizations. Charging the bill would restrict op erations of farm co-operatives by pre venting them from receiving wholesale discounts, the letter warned also that higher consumer prices would result from enactment. The measure, al ready passed by the senate, prevents price discriminations by- manufacturers to big customers. The letter was signed by representa tives of the American Farm Bureau Federation, the National Grange, the National Co-operative Council, the Na tional Co-operative Milk Producers’ Fed eration, the Farmers’ National Grain association, and the Northwestern Farmers’ Union Legislative committee SECRETARY OF AVAR DERN allo cated nearly $138,000,000 for rivet and harbor improvement projects throughout the country that had been recommended by the engineering corps. Of this sum, $103,458,839 will be used for entirely new waterway and.porl improvement while $34,408,ISO will be employed in maintaining existing river and harbor facilities. SIX members of the Supreme court of the United States ruled that the Guffey act to control the bituminous ctal Industry is invalid, and another of the New Deal ex periments goes Into the discard. This is the act which Presi dent Roosevelt urged congress to pass not withstanding doubts of its constitutionality "however reasonable.” Five justices—Suth erland, Butler, Van Devanterj McReynolds, and Roberts — joined „ „ „ In the majority opln- * ^ ion which InvaJidated the whole act Justices Cardozo, Braudels, and Stone joined in a dissenting opinion In which they upheld the act Chief Justice Hughes held In a separate opinion that the act was constitutional with re spect to the marketing provisions but unconstitutional with respect to the labor regulations. The court In the majority opinion held that there is no authority in the Constitution for the control of the coal industry attempted In the Guffey act The act was not valid either under the commerce clause or the welfare clause. Senator Guffey of Pennsylvania, au thor of the act, lost little time in in troducing a substitute measure, concen trating on price fixing and omitting the labor provisions which were outlawed by the Supreme court John L. Lewis, head of the United Mine ^Workers, de clared that organization would "join In requesting congress to enact the bill at once.” He thought the measure would “operate to maintain the equilibrium of the coal industry pending further study of stabiiizatibn of the industry.” A plea to all coal operators to sup port the new bill was made by Charles O’Neill, legislative chairman of the Na tional Conference of Bituminous Coal Producers. Some congressional leaders, however, thought it unlikely that the new Guf fey bill could be passed at this session. HERBERT H. LEHMAN announced suddenly In Albany that he would not be a candidate for a third term as governor of New York, saying: “I feel the ti,me has come when I may ask re lease from the cares and responsibilities of the governorship.” But leaders of the Demo cratic party, Including President Roosevelt National Chairman James A. Farley and Senators Wagner and Copeland undertook to persuade Mr. Lehman Gov. Lehman to run for reeiection. They all agreed that his retirement would be a loss to the state and the party and that he should be “drafted.” The Immediate political result of the governor’s surprise action was. that New York again became a doubtful state for the presidential campaign, In the minds of many politicians. The morale of Republican leaders in the state improved, and-Democrats began speculating as to which of a group of five or more candidates could be groomed for the gubernatorial nomina tion this fall if Lehman persisted in his determination. . GENERAL rejoicing marked the In augural of Dr. Miguel Mariano Gomez as president of Cuba—the first elected by the people since Gerardo Machado. The new executive, a lawyer and revolutionary leader who has tWice been mayor of Havana, took the oath of office in the ball room of the presi dent’s mansion in the presence of 400 foreign and Cuban officials. The guns of Cabanas fortress across the harbor fired a twenty-one gun salute and on the signal all public buildings: were il luminated and thousands of merry makers; began parading the streets. ,President Gomez appeared on a bal cony and told the shouting throngs that he would do bis best to mnin°qin a constitutional government “by the Cu bans and for the benefit and interest of all Cubans.” In his first message to congress he assured the nation that personal rights would be 1 respected. Among his policies be listed “rimpfe tolerance to all ideas, ample guaran tees for all rights and sufficient energy to maintain order: and the necessary Strength against offenders against the laws.” NEITHER Great Britain nor France has any intention of paying the installments on the American war debt due June 15. And almost certain ly all the other debtor nations except Finland will fi,.low the example of the two big ones and again default Brit ish Foreign Minister Eden talked about the debts with Leon Blum, who prob ably will be premier of France soon, but there was no indication that either one was planning to make a payment Blum told the American club in Paris he hoped the war debt “misunderstand ing” might be cleared up, but he was just trying to be pleasant to the people of both America and France without spending any money. Of course the debtor nations would like to have the issue cleared up, for as long as tliey are In default they are subject to the restrictions of the John son act which makes it unlawful for any person In the United States to pur chase or sell the bonds, securities or other obligations of any foreign gov ernment or to make any loans to such a government while that government is in default In payment of its obliga tions to the United States. BENITO MUSSOLINI advised Prince von Starhemberg of . Austria not to start any domestic trouble because he was ousted from the cabinet by Chan cellor Schuschnigg, and when- the prince returned to Vienna , the cabinet fixed, things up neatly by decreeing that the country should have three fuehrers. Schuschnigg, the unofficial dictator, becomes national leader of the fatherland front; Eduard Baar von Barenfels, the new vice chancellor. Is national commander of the front mil itia; and Starhemberg continues aa sports leader and head of the Norther- hood Protective association. ATIONS that are especially hard up might consider the method said to be employed by Rumania. A Bu charest newspaper asserts that govern ment employees have been paid largely In counterfeit money, vast quantities of bogus 100 lei pieces having been issued In sealed bags by the ministry of finance. That ministry then announced that the counterfeit- coins would not be re deemed and that persons who passed them would be prosecuted. Or. Pavelie THE resettlement administration beaded by Rexford Guy Tdgwell was declared by the District of Co lumbia court of appeals to be “clear ly unconstitutional delegation of pow er,” In a case involving a model com munity project in Somerset county, New Jersey. Going beyond the issue before them, the justices of the Appeals court called the entire relief appropriations act of 1935 into question. The act was Invalid am* hence BA was invalid, ac cording to the court. Legally, however, none of the rest of the act will be affected by the decision because, the other multitudinous' activities of the New Deal under the appropriation were not before the court . DR.

The two were ar rested at Turin In Oc tober, 1934, soon after the murder of Alexan der, but the French au thorities who were working on the case were never permit ted to question them and an Italian tribunal refused the request of the French government for their extradi tion to France for trial. JOSE LUlS TEJADA SORZANO was forced to resign the presidency of Bolivia by a junta of army officers and Socialists who staged a bloodless coup d’etat In La Paz. Col. German Busch, acting chief of the general army staff, leader of the coup, will be at the head of the government until Col. David Toro, hero of the war with Paraguay, returns from the Chaco, when Toro will be installed as president NEWS that Japan was greatly en larging her force In North China led the State- department In Washing ton to announce that the position of the United States is the same as that outlined last December by Secretary Hull affirming its support of the nine power pact that guarantees China’s ter ritorial integrity. At that time Mr. Hull said .his country has a binding faith In the fundamental principles of its traditional policy.' This government adheres to the provisions of the treaties to which it is a party and continues to bespeak, respect by all na tions for the provisions of treaties sol emnly entered Into for the purpose of facilitating and regulating, to reclp- ' rocal and common advantage.

AU bf you. men and boys who cherish that ambition can’t do better than to heed the advice of Hal Mohr, who knows what it is to start from scratch and win. H e is one of our ace photogra phers, you know; did the camera work on “Midsummer Night’s Dream” and “Captain Blood,” among others, and won the Academy Award this year. “I get hundreds of letters from boys wanting to know how to become studio camera men,” he said the other day. “They all want to come to Hollywood, and that is the worst , thing to do. I’d say to them— “Begin at home as an amateur cam era man. Practice on your friends with your home movie and any sim ple kodak. Learn all you can about trick photography, lighting, effects, en larging and finishing—this is the foundation.” Mohr did that, years ago in his home In San Francisco, using a rather crude movie camera that he had made him self and photographing local news events. —K— It seems too bad that Ginger Rogers and Lew Ayres have decided to part; they were such a nice young couple, and such an attractive one. Of course, it may be career trouble; Ginger has climbed right along up since she’s been coupled with Fred Astaire, and young Mr. Ayres has shelved the acting ca reer that had such a brilliant start when he did "All Quiet on the Western Front” for directing. Here’s hoping their difficul ties can be patched up. dstas&w Ginger Rogers Charles Boyer continues to be the one actor all the girls want for leading man. He’s said to be the reason that both Merle Oberon and Marlene Diet- rich wanted to do "The Garden of Al lah”—he was cast for the hero. And now Garbo has drawn him for "Coun tess Walewska,” which she will do after she finishes “Camille.” —K— Do you by any change listen to those “Vox Pop’’ broadcasts on/ NBC on Tuesday evenings? Ifyou ddn’t, form the habit; they’re great. * Parks Johnson and Jerry Belcher set up shop just anywhere around New York and gather In innocent bystand ers to broadcast; they ask questions— tricky ones, usually—and the victim replies. The boys have been doing a bit of research work, and declare that people from small towns have faster, keener minds than city bred people. —^— If you’re interested In Radio sal aries—Harry Conn, who wrote Jack Benny’s scripts till he and Benny had a tiff, received $1,000 a week. And if you’re interested in the diffi culties of a radio star Jack is having some, because after his regular broad cast is done he has to repeat it, some time later, for the Pacific Coast. One of its chief charms is its effect of spontaneity; that’s not hard to achieve the first time, but it’s tough to repeat. *— — RKO officials gave a little boy one of the most thrilling moments of his life recently. He is Sammy Mydash, seven years old, and he had been blind. An operation restored his sight, and as soon as he left the hospital he went with his doctor and his nurse to the Radio City Music Hall, to a pre view of RKO's "Dancing Pirate,” an all-color picture. ■—K— No doubt you saw the dialect come dian known as Parkyakarkus In Eddie Cantor’s recent “Strike Me Pink”; you must have heard him on the radio, too. But —you should have seen him at a big league baseball game the other, day with his nine-year-old son. 'The boy had a toy micro phone, and busily pre tended to broadcast the entire game.

Appleton- Centtiry Co., Inc.WNU Service C H A PT ER III—Continued When they went to examine the t>lace where the body had been found, Uonty Mitehqll threw a coat about me and drew me out with him. Perhaps he wanted m/ observation, as he said; perhaps he was simply being kind to me, the outsider among those whis pering groups. The police bad turned the head lights of their car on the shrubbery and every leaf stood out Id brilliant detail There was not a bit of blood to be found anywhere, nor did they find any object which could have made the wound to her head. The dense bushes had received her body and eased It to the ground. “She was dead before she got here,” I heard the inspector say. The ground had been so trampled by the men who had lifted out Mrs. Harriden’s body that all footprints were indecipherable, and there were no marks to be found of any ladder. “He must have had one, to get up there,” Donahey muttered, squinting up at the smooth white stone facade, as the spotlight from -a car played over its high austerity. I beard Keller saying that the gar dener reported that all ladders were safely locked in their proper places. "Awkward sort of thing to bring along with him,” the inspector mused. “But he might have used it on the walls and then here." “And lugged it away with him?” said Mitchell. “Somehow I don’t see a sneak thief trying to lope along in conspicuously, with a twenty-foot lad der." Slowly Donahey nodded, still study ing the window. “Might have got in somewhere else and used the window for a getaway.” Mitchell debated that. “That’s a high drop — he’d have made a heavy landing and smashed the bushes. There isn’t a sign of injury to them except where Mrs. Harriden fell.” There is no use In going over those hours, moment by moment, those hours in which we sat wafting or milled around, eddying to each report There were lonely hours for me, for now Monty Mitchell ceased to concern him self with me and went busily about with the police. Very thoroughly they went over the place while Donahey interviewed each welhber of the domestic staff. He in terviewed them separately, butlers, maids, copks, laundresses, chauffeurs, the linen woman, the lodge-keeper, the boathouse-keeper, and not one of them had a suspicious thing to communi cate. Ali their testimony was to the effect that it would be impossible for ' any. one to enter or leave the house .without being seen. i “Well, if it isn’t an outside job it’s an Inside,” Donahey retorted dispas sionately. “Somebody got In here somehow.” I could see that Donahey was let ting it stand for what it was worth at the present Between the Interviews there were constant reports from the men 'who bad been sent out to check tip on things and the sum total ef those reports was that the lodge-keep er said there had been do attempts to enter and that there was no marks of footprints about the base of the walls or aliy ladder. marks, or any signs of disturbance of the glass ce mented on the top of the walls be tween the spikes. There were no footprints, either, in the sands where the side walls ended at the sea, and no Indications of a boat having been beached. The tide had been going out since seven and the shore was utter ly untouched except by water marks. “Well, that’s fine,” said Donahey sarcastically. “No way Into, the grounds and no. way into. the . house. Except by the front door." C H A PT E R IV It was our turn. then.„ A bizarre ftcene, I thought, to be taking place Ib that pale gray drawing ' room, the heavy inspector In' his dark uniform sealed formally behind that ■ incongru ously fragile Inlaid table, the strained group of men and women In evening dress, and the ring of policemen fringing the borders of the Aubusson carpet Donahey’s notes and papers were spread out on the table before him and among them was a list of the guests the Kellers must have- provided, that be consulted now carefully, checking us off one by one. There were ten of us present now, beside the Kellers, for Deck had reappeared from the se clusion he seemed to have been keep ing, and Harriden himself had come down and stood, grim and expression less, on the. other side of that little table. What Donahey wanted first was an account of the last time Mrs. Barrl- den had been seen alive. Every one had seen her at late afternooon cock tails, then Harriden- reported that they had gone upstairs to dress, a little be fore seven-thirty, he thought, that lat er he had gone Into his wife’s room and she had said she bad a headache and would not go down. “About what time was that?” Harriden considered. “About eight. I’d say. I know It was time to go down. I’d already dressed.” Not a word did he say about any other conversation between them, though earlier in the evening he had blurted out that there had been a row, and that he’d been afraid of what his wife might do, In hysteria or drama tics. Well, I did not blame him for holding that back. He was not called up on to offer up that secret bitter ness to the public. . . . He must have felt sure that his friends would be careful not to repeat it; there was a solidarity that knit these people’s In terests together. He went on, “The maid saw her at that time, too.” “Anson,” mentioned Mrs. Keller, and Donahey’s pencil moved. “I rang for her just as I was leaving the room, and I told her Mrs. Harri den did not want to be disturbed or have any dinner brought up. No one was to come till she rang, I believe Mrs. Harriden told her this. No,’* he amended, “I remember the maid said Mrs. Harriden did not speak to her. Anson merely saw her.” What was Mrs. Harriden doing then?” “Lying on the bed.” He added. lThe room was darkened, and she said she wanted to go to sleep.” 'What happened next?” ‘I went down and told Mrs. Keller. She did not want her table unbalanced so she sent for some one in the house.” 'During dinner,’’ he stolidly con tinued, “I went up to see how Mrs. Harriden was. 1 The room was still dark, aDd I closed the door without speaking, believing her asleep.” “She was still on the bed—?” Harriden hesitated. “I thought she was^—I took It for granted that she was. I can not swear to It since the room was dark.” “At what time would you place yonr visit?” “Oh, sometime during dinner,” he jerked out, with his first betrayal of impatience at the ordeal. “Early In the meal, I think, for there was time for some one else to leave the table for Quite an interval after I returned.'’ Donabey made a quick note of that “Then wlmt happened?” “Nothing. We finished dinner. Aft erwards, before they began on bridge I asked the Princess RancInl to run up and see how my wife was. It was her visit that discovered Mrs. Harri den’s absence from the room—though m I Closed the Door Without .Speak- lng. we have been told that some one else had already discovered it, without mentioning' it” •’Who was that?” Harriden’s head jerked towards me. “I think the name Isj Seton.” My heart began to race as Donahey looked toward me; be could not fail to be struck, I thought, by. something purposefully slighting, .: almost con temptuous, . tn Harrlden’a reference, but, though his pencil made a quick, side notation, he did not question me then. After a moment, Harriden continued, very .deliberately, “I sent the princess because I thought Mrs. Harriden might want a Uttie attention* from another woman—women always, know what to, t do for a headache. Theprlncesscaoe down and told me she was not In ber room.” I knew then why he had chosen to give his testimony before all of us, re- fusing privacy. He wanted the Prin cess Kanclnl to bear what he had to say and be guided by It. “And that Is all you can tell us, Mr. Harriden?” “That Is all I know." “What was your surmise when she was first missing?” ••I didn’t have any. Thought she might be walking off a headache. We went out to look.” "You didn’t see any reason to sum' mon the police— didn't fear she bad been kidnaped?” Harriden growled, "No.” “You’ve no knowledge of any threat ening letters she. may have received, or any previous suspicious clrcum stances?” Harriden grunted a negative. “Now what time was it when the Princess went to Mrs. Harriden’s room?”. ••Just after dinner.” “And what time was that?” "Couldn’t say.” “Oh. a. little after nine-thirty,” Mr. Keller suggested. "After nine thirty,” he repeated. “And the deceased was last seen alive at eight o’clock—by Mr. Harriden and the maid Anson—possibly alive at eight forty-five. . . . Now one thing more, Harriden. How was the win dow when you left the room at eight o’clock? Was It open?” “Couldn't say,’’ Harriden told him. “Probably closed or I'd have felt a draft” “And when you came up from din ner?" "Didn’t notice any cold air.? “It was the maid who found the window open, Mr. Donahey,” Mrs. Kel ler suddenly Interjected, as if she could bear no more of this tedious verifying of what we were all by now familiar with, but Donahey was not to be hurried. •Tm coming to the maid.. . . First I’d like to hear what the Princess Rancini has to say about the room.” He turned directly to the princess who was seated now a Uttle away from the table. “Was the window open when you went In after dinner?” • “I think not,” said the princess. "I noticed nothing urfiisual. The room was simply ready for the. night” “Where's this Miss Seton that, was up In the room before you?” “I’m Miss Seton,” I said, my heart knocking. “When did you go up to the room?” I told him, “Just after dinner. Just before the Princess Rancini went?? ; “How did you happen to go? Friend of Mrs. Harriden’s?’' “I had never met ber," I answered. “I am a stranger here,” and I went on to tell him why I had come and what my work was. “Bow’d you happen to'go up?’! be asked me. There was no help for It; I had to go on with the story I had told them before. Aside from my feeling of not betraying Deck—and that was strangely strong — I knew that be would hear my first story, sooner or later, and round upon me for untruth. I said, very slowly, “I weht, because I thought I knew what bad happened. I- thought Mrs. Harriden had a hurt check she wanted to hide and that I could help her cover it up. In my work I bad pigments and stains with me.” “How did you know she had a hurt cheek?” “Because, from my window, before dressing for dinner, I saw some man In her room slap her. I can’t be sure it was she," I stumbled on, “but it was In her room, the first big win dow at the north, on the front of the house, and I saw the figures of a man and a woman there, against - the light.” “You mean you saw a man hit her?” Harriden tried to Intervene. “Look here, inspector—” but Donahey waved him away, his eyes steadily on me. v “He didn’t exactly hit ber," I said. “He just slapped her. Then she went away from the window, and he seemed .to follow and then one of them came and pulled the curtains across. Any way I couldn’t see any more.” "And what time was that?" “Some time before dinner. About seven-thirty—a little after.” ‘Who was the man?” “I don't know.” “Yon know what he looked , like, don't you? Big or little, tall or short? You say you saw him.” '*1 saw the outline of a man," was all I could tell him. “There wasn't anything to compare. him with until she came Into sight and then I was so startled by wbat he did that I, wasn’t really attending, to what be looked like." .v “Well, was he taller than she was or shorter?" ^ “Why, Pd say taller,- but I couldn’t be sure," I stammered; ' “bh,! you couldn’t be Surel1* His tone was distinctly ironical. “Seems to me, young lady,” “he commented, “you haven’t got a very good detecting eye.”. . - V ‘“A man might be a yery goofl de tec tor. of counterfeit notes," I retort ed, heartened by my anger' at tilm, “and not be able tq describe people glimpsed at a window—In silhouette. They were just shadows against thelight””’. - • Mi “H’m. = How about this, Mr. Harri den?” ' '' - ' \ Hafrlden’s look turned towards me and I could feel the heavy hatred id .V I did not; it, like a weight apon me. blame him. “Oh, it’s a He," he said contemptu ously. “I think this girl Is a publicity seeker—or worse. Donahey was reshuffling his notes. “You say you and your wife went to your rooms .a Uttle before sevei thirty?” ' “Thereabouts. She went up before I did.” “And you went directly to you» room?" “That’s it.’’ “When did you go to your wlfe’a room?" “I told you. When I was dressed. To see If-she was ready." “And you didn't hear anybody In the room before that?” "I did not," said Harriden harshly. Donahey consulted a rough drawing he had already made of the arrange* ment of the rooms. “Door shut be tween your rooms?" Barriden appeared to reflect "It was,” he said firmly. “And your dressing-room and bath w^re at the north end of her’s, I see. Couldn’t you have been there—and so not heard anything?" “I was all over the place, dressing,” said Harriden very positively, “and there wasn’t anything to hear." “We—ell,” said the inspector, con sideringly, with an attempt at a sooth ing Inflection, “we have to look into it, anyhow, you know." “You’d better spend your time,” ex ploded Harriden, “in asking Alan Deck what he was doing when be left the dinner-table after I did. The maid saw him outside Mrs. Harrlden’a room.” “All right” said Donahey. “Where’s Mr. Deck?” Alan Deck’s tall figure came forward. “When did you go up stairs, . Mr. Deck?” Alan Deck answered slowly, “About nine o’clock or a little before. I’d say. I went to put In a call to my paper. I was outside Mrs. Harriden’s door,’* went on Deck, In a drawling, almost amused voice, "because I went to the picture gallery on the third floor after a handkerchief I’d left there before dinner.” "And Mrs. Harriden’s door wa? closed?” “I think so. AU the doors along the hall were closed. I'm sure." “And you didn’t go into tbe room?’ “Mrs. Harriden’s room?’’ said Decb with that same half-amusement which grated so on my tense nerves. “No, Mr. Inspector, I did not go into any room but my own. And the gallery .1 “AU right. Now let’s have In the maid,” said the inspector. “She must have gone Into the room, since it was all fixed up for tbe nlght' They didn’t have to wait long fos Anson. In she soon came, the pretty, rosy-cheeked girl I had seen before^ Donahey asked her a few preliminary questions, and she repeated what she had already told of her coming to the door at eight o’clock and Mr. Harri den’s telling her not to disturb Mrs. Harriden, and of what the room had been like when she came to arrange it later. It was dark, she said, and the bed mussed, as if some one had been on It without taking off tbe cov ers, a comforter was- disarranged and the window was wide open. She had closed and locked it. “Any signs of a struggle?” Donahey wanted to know and Anson looked quite shocked. “Oh, no,” she said primly. She could not fix the time of her en try very positively but the room was her last, and she thought it was just before the end of dinner. “Thera hadn’t been any noise yet In the ball,” she said Innocently. Then Harriden barked out a sudden question at her. “What made you go in after Pd told you to keep out?” Anson looked straight ahead, and there were hints of a struggle within her. “Well, it was some time after,", she said uncertainly, “and then, see ing the gentleman outside the door I thought he might have been In, and so she was awake, and It would be all right for me—” "What gentleman did you see?” Donahey sUd In very quietly, though we already knew. As if against her will, her round, defensive eyes slid about and Indi cated Alan Deck. “Mr. Deck, it was” she said reluctantly. ' - "Passing—on my way from the gal- lery,” said Deck briefly. Donahey was picking up a fresh sheet of paper. “That’s all—for now,* he said, dismissing her with a curt nod. “There’s this other thing I want to clear up—that scene at the window before dinner.” “Oh, my God!” said Harriden with savage bitterness. “I know, I know." Donahey’s voice was professionally placatory for an in stant “You think the girl’s making it up, but we got to look into it, just the same. . . ; She says she saw a man in there about seven-thirty. Now where were all you gentlemen about seven thirty?” seven* "The Prince Rancini was In Ma apartment,” said the princess haughfc WamnTa8 hnSbana‘’ SaW “Caa’t the men speak for them, selves?" asked Donahey with the flS touch of humor I’d seen In him ( W BE CONTINUED) \ Longe.t City inVVorld One distinction about Honolulu ,g 0 Ttrnmentauy lt * thecity In the world.

JUNIOR TOPIC — Jesus In Geth semane.INTERMEDIATE • AND SENIOB TOPIC—The loyal Christ.TOONG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Doing the Father’s Will. r:\i Jesus went from the upper room, where-the last supper was eaten, to the Garden of Gethsemane. Night had now fallen. 1. Jesus at the Mount of Olive* (v. 39). The garden was a favorite resort of Jesus and his disciple 9 on the slope of the Monnt of Olives, a short distance east of Jerusalem (Matt 26: 90). Gethsemane means “oil press," and the garden was a place where the oil was crushed out of olives. There is a striking significance In Jesus' coming to this place. Olive oil was precious, being used both for food and lighting. The bruising and crush ing of Christ in this garden has yield ed the largest blessings to the world— food for the souls of men, and light for their lives. II. His Companions (w . 39, 40). Peter, James, and John, who had been with him on the Mount of Trans figuration, were permitted to go with him into tbe deep shadows of the gar den (Matt. 26:37). -He took those who were best able - to apprehend the meaning of the tragic hour, and, too, as a human being he craved sympathy: Knowing the peculiar trial that would be theirs when the Shepherd should be smitten, his purpose was to pre pare them for It It was well that they taste the bitter cup of which he drank, and of which they, too, would later drink. III. Jesus in Prayer (vv. 41-44). L Withdrawal from the disciples (v. 41). Even the members of the inner circle could not go with him through this hour. He went apart -from them, for he must be alone with his Father in this darkest hour. Thur alone'he kneeled and prayed. 2. "What he said (v. 42). “If thou be willing, remove this cup from me.’ The cup did not primarily mean the physical sufferings of the cross, though they were exceeding great. He did not now desire to escape from the cross and thus' to stop short of his redemptive work, for this was the supreme purpose of his coming into the world (Heb. 2:14). Rather it was the revulsion of his holy nature from the burden of sin which he was. rep resentatively to bear when the cross was placed upon him. He. Indeed, was to be made sin for us who knew no sin (H Cor. 5:21). He was so com pletely identified with a sinning race that the judgment of a holy. God which rightfully would have fallen upon it was about to strike him. The cup, therefore, meant his death as the bearer of sin. He came to Gethsemane with a full knowledge of what It meant and here he bowed in submission to the Father’s will. The agony of this hour drew from hisr brow as it were great drops of blood, but an angel came and strengthened him, and from that place of victory he went with unfaltering steps to the cross. IV. The Sleeping Disciples (w . 45* 46). Though they had boasted of theh fidelity (Matt 26:35), they could not watch with him one hour. !Fhey were so bennmbed by perplexities and sor row that they slept and could not watch with Jesus one little hour. V. Jesus Betrayed (w . 47, 48). 1. The betrayer (v. 47) was Judas, who had been at -the last supper with Jesus; who had jourayed np and down the land with the Lord and his dis ciples. The fact that he had listened to Jesus’ teachings, had witnessed his miracles, had been with him In sea sons of prayer (John 18:2), intensified the- horror of his deed. 2. The sign of betrayal (v. 47) was a Wss, the age-long token of most tender affection and friendship. The betrayer now degraded that symbol of love by making it the instrument of disloyalty and treason. 3. The words that Jesus spoke (v. 48) to the infamous disciple Teveal the infinite tenderness of his heart But so hardened was the heart of the betrayer that he carried through his brutal contract to deliver tbe Re deemer of men for .thirty pieces of Silver. The money was In his purse; he must not weaken. The deed was done. . - Shall not those who study this les son inquire with deep earnestness if anything In their Uvefe may be serv ing as a practical betrayal of Christ? ; ' G ood D eeds ,“for every 'good deed of ours, the world will be better always.

She was 80 years old, and loved by all who knew her. Many times she has-Jieen in our home and talked of the disappoint ments of this life and about not having any earthly home, but felt assured she had a Heavenly home. I went to see her in her sickness and she ever seemed bright and ready to go. Many times I have seem her down on bended knees, talking to her grand children, telling them she loved them, and how she wanted them to be good and meet her in Heaven. We will miss her so much, but feel assured if we live close to God we wili see aunt Em ma again, where there is no disappoint ments in Heaven. There wont be any crepe on the door knob, and our garments will never grow thread bare, but always be fadeless and new. We’ll never be hungry, nor thirsty, nor be in poverty there, for all the bounties of Heaven, and aunt Emma had a promise to share. ONE WHO LOVED HER.

President Roosevelt’s Ideas and pur poses In connection with the Constitu tion, the Supreme Court and the Con gress are again brought to the front by the appearance of the first Issue of the New Deal's weekly magazine, the Roosevelt Record. The new publi cation does not reveal the names of its publishers and editors and incor porators, but it is regarded in Wash ington as having the seal of the Pres ident’s full approval. As such, it will express Administration views for the duration of the national campaign. The leading article In the Roosevelt Record Is written by Charles A. Beard, the historian whose ideas of the Con stitution and of the powers of Con gress have been regarded so broad as to come under the "radical" classifica tion. When President Roosevelt last year announced his appointees to a commission to aid In making, plans for the sesqulcentennlal celebration of the Constitution’s birth, Professor Beard was named as chairman. Later the professor was eliminated. Consid erable comment had been caused by his selection on a commission which was to undertake to educate the public on con stitutional matters. "General Welfare" Clause. The Beard article In the first Issue of the Roosevelt Record discusses the question of how wide are the powers of Congress under the “general wel- fure" clause. The clause authorizes Congress “to lay and collect taxes, du ties, imports, and excises, to pay the debts and to provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States.” It is Professor Beard’s conclusion In the Roosevelt campaign publication that it is left to Congress to decide whether Its acts concern the “general welfare" and if It decides that an im mediate question of taxing or spending legislation does Involve the general (as distinguished from local) welfare, the Congress may pass the law. Beard’s position has been opposed by Jurists, statesmen and by some of the more respected members of the little group who approved the Consti tution in Its final form. The Supreme Court In the AAA decision of last Jan uary also indicated an oposlte view. Assails AU Opponents. But, in the closing paragraph of his article Professor Beard says: “The narrow view of the Constitu tion is a perversion of their Intentions, a falsification of history for partisan ends—a screen for covering attacks on measures of government, actually op posed on grounds of expediency or per sonal antipathy.” Washington observers see in this re vival of the old argument favoring a letting down of the legislative bars only another move In the campaign to deprive the Supreme Court of the pow er to invalidate Acts of Congress. As yet, the President has made no defi nite statement in behalf of these “re forms." Political experts say he will not venture to do so In election year. But the attitude of his associates and of his publicity agencies, it Is pointed out, leaves -little doubt of the presi dential viewpoint. U. S. Payrolls 1 How Much Is a Billion? Expert Gives an Answer What is a'billion dollars! Probably no one Is better qualified to answer that question than Lewis W. Douglas, !former director of the United States ,Budget He says In his book, “There Is One Way Out”: “Upon reflection it almost staggers the imagination. A man with a $5,000 annual income would have to work i 200,000 years to earn a billion' dollars. At our present annual rate of Indi vidual income, a city of 100,000 people would have to work more than fifteen ,years to earn a billion dollars. Only a billion minutes elapsed between the birth of Christ and the year 1902 A. D. A billion one-dollar bills laid end to end would girdle the earth four times.’ Secretary Morgenthau, of the Treas ury Department, told a Senate commit tee the other day that tills Admin lstratlon would spend almost six bil lions of dollars more than it took In during the present fiscal year. Butinesa 1 Business has been held responsible Au some quarters tor the unemploy ment situation and is now being held [responsible for its continuance. But business, bewitched, bewildered and bedeviled, Is now in no mood to be be labored or beguiled. Business says the burden of unemployment can and will be reassumed when confidence in the coherence and continuity of this, or some other, national administration -has been restored. 121,117 More Get Jobs With Administration in Year. Bureaucracy is still rolling up new high totals for the number of employ ees on its roster. A year ago there were 684,918 employees on the Execu tive payroll. Today, according to the latest report of the United States Civil Service Commis-:ion, the total Is 806,- 035. While it Is asserted from the stump that business and Industry have made great gains and the national In come has increased by billions, the rumors that the emergency is over ap parently have not reached those in Washington who hire quickly and fire with extreme deliberation. President Roosevelt, four years after the Democratic platform pledged econ omy In Government, appointed a com mission to study plans for cutting down expenses, and for reorganizing and re ducing the number of departments. He made It clear that no report was ex pected until next year, which means that the matter will not arise to dis tract the thought of the voter from other considerations. Meanwhile the New Deal has piled up a huge surplus of employees, at terrific cost to the taxpayers. While the emergency is re ported to have been evaporating the executive payroll has Increased by al most 18 per cent In the past year. . The Emergency Plea. A common explanation of the great Increase In bureau payrolls is that It is not Just a case of creating huge and politically friendly payrolls, but that the Administration has needed these extra workers to help meet the emer gency. A glance at the official Govern ment records, however, shows disturb ing payroll Increases In those depart ments which have no relation to re covery and emergency. Take for exam ple the “regular” departments such as the State, War, Treasury and Post Office departments. More than 5,000 persons were added to those payrolls In March, the last month reported. The Civil Service lists twenty-five “new agencies” created under the pres ent Administration. There are 50,593 employees on those.payrolls alone. The list Includes such familiar alphabetic bureaus as CCC, FHA, FCA, HOLC, et cetera, et cetera. Some of the new agencies have been merged Ioto other departments. This process has caused trouble. In order to keep those em ployees who have been at work In “emergency" departments under the Okay of Chairman Farley of the Na tional Democratic Committee, it has been necessary to study new methods of evading the civil service laws. It was proposed the other day to place 10,000 such loyal workers In other de partments by means of a “special ex amination.” Growth In 3 Years. Looking once more at the latest re ported total number of employees, the records for March, 1936, show that 242,548 have been added to the Execu tive payrolls since February 28, 1933, a few days before Mr. Roosevelt be came President. The number on that date was 563,487. The present admin istration started out with the declara tion that it proposed to cnt Govern ment expenses 25 per cent Three years later it bad. increased the Executive payroll alone by 43 per cent The foregoing figures do not include 294,369 enrolled personnel and 8,000 others In the Civilian Conservation Corps. The totals for March, 1936, show a gain of more than 7,000 employees over the number on the February list At that rate of Increase there will be an additional 49,000 on the payrolls be fore elect!on_day. Which will make a November army of: 855,000. ■ i W &¥/ $ x\ \ I' \ I \ * ''ViVu I ' Sm n u SE R V IC E CapunaAt',J>.Applft'an-Cfiutuiy w t m mi, ,.,..j,, When a lovely but exceedingly clever young woman is accused ol a double murder, and especially if that young woman has just fallen hopelessly in love,'what can she do but fight, bravely and gloriously, for her exoneration and happiness?

Wallace, of the Agriculture Department, told an audi ence of university students and pro fessors In Lincoln, Neb., that he was convinced “the economic dilemma can be met In an American way and under the Constitution, providing-the truth Is told to the people.” The Secretary re cently made a stubborn resistance to a senatorial demand that . he make known the names of farmers who got $10,000 or more in AAA “benefits.” His critics in Washington point out that one way to get the truth to the people Is to make all public records freely available to the public. about 60 years, always draws crowds which sometimes runs as high as 10.000 people AU profits derived from the affairs are given to the Masonic orphanage at Oxford.

But this law, like many others, has its loopholeB, and over zealous, some- times unscrupulous, workers in charge of the machinery, have passed a lot of iniquity through these open ings. especially in prim aries for the selection of candidates, and the stench has smelled far beyond the immediate communities to discredit the system and themselves. In gene ral elections it is not so necessary to put on the screws, and the absentee baljot system is not overplayed.

NUM BER 4 6 Liquor Cases Qn In crease. Of the 9 2 cases on the regular docket of the municipal court Mon day m orning, for offenses on which defendants were arrested from Sat urday m orning until Monday morn ing> 5 3 involved liquor in one way or another. " This is according to a check kept on the cases by Judge Bailev Liipfert as the court proceed ed with clearing the docket. A lthough this percentage, when the great num ber of crimes on the statute books are considered, is great enough in itself, it is pointed ut, it is made more alarm ing when it is revealed the check on the cases showed 22 were for traffic offense. Deducting the traffic cases from the total. 7 0 cases are left. O ut of these 7 0 cases, 5 3 , or over 7 5 per cent., involved liquor in some man ner. A largenum ber of the cases were charges of drunkenness. Although an accurate check was not kept on these cases, the vast m ajority re vealed that drunkenness was brought about through the drinking of wines and beers which are now sold openly in the city. Most of the drunks revealed that they had reach ed the stage of inebrity through the drinking of these liquids entirely and that they had not consumed any ‘hard” liquor. T hat the num ber of cases involv ing liquor in the municipal 'court have increased perceptiblv since sale of wine and beer started and since repeal has taken place; i,n several counties in N orth Carolinai and the. adjoining state of Virginia, is re vealed in the study of the court docket before and since this change took place.—W inston Sentinel. Prosperity And The Weather. It is reported from W ashington that drought conditions .throughout a large section of the wheat country of the W est are very far from cheer ing. It is a little too early, perhaps to be definite about it, but there has been a serious shortage ot rainfall this spring, the Departm ent of A griculture reports, w ith a possi bility of m aterial crop curtailm ent unless there are ample rains before tbe early part of Tune. If the w eather is norm al in the great agricultural regions the farm ers’ income this year will be close to $8 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 0 0 0 the Governm ent es tim ators believe.

In April, 83 persons died violent deaths as a result of automobile ac cidents on the highways. This is said to be the largest num ber of highway fatalities recorded for this state in any April. ; This in spite of the safety campaign that is being waged by law-enforce m ent officials and the daily press. This in spite of reams and reams 0 1 editorial and news m atter appearing continually for the admonition and instruction of those who travel the streets and highways . The impressive death toll lends proportion to our problem. We need to see these 838 persons in the ag gregate—to imagine them as lying in one great heap as soldiers were piled up in some disputed trench in the World W ar. Then we need to look again and see these wreck victims separately as living, breathing, hope ful, ambi ioua human , beings whose lives were suddenly snapped out as one turns off the electric IightsJn his home. ' „ • By visualizing these deaths thusly we make the, threat of death a pres ent reality—to see its form lurking above the steering wheel, to see it crouching on a tire that is much too thin for safety or on brakes that sho.ulil visit the mechanic.. When we see death standing over us in this way, demanding nrore blood, asking for an encore, perhaps we will make: stronger our resolve to outwit the monster and hold more sacred the blooi’of ourselves and our kind when we go forth on the highways with a deadly weapon.to-wit, an automobile truck, or bus.—Winston Sentinel A Small W®r|d After AU.

(From The Yellow Jacket) Taxpayers for the next 50 years will have reason to realize that FDR is not th e ‘‘forgotten m an.” You judge a patriot by the -sacri fices he makes for bis country, and a New Dealer by the money he makes out of it. President Roosevelt says that he is going to run on his record, but our idea is he would do better to run from it. Roosevelt’s prim a donnas of the Life More Abundant have about worried the life out of those who work for a living. Why heep the aliens out of this country and then adm it their cheap labor products which rob American workers their jobs? . Roosevelt assured us that he was going to drive the money-chang ers” out of tne Treasury, but we no tice thejmoney-wasters are still on the job. At the present this country is a- round 32 billion dollars in debt—and we have inoie persors out of work than when the New Deal started. We’ve beard a lot of things in our hectic life, but never of any nation nor individual who succeeded in bor rowing and spending itself into pros perity. Any how, we give Roosovelt credit for picking the.proper name for his Baby Bonds. Our babies and their babies’ babies will be paying off those bonds for generations to come. Henry -Eord describes the crop- curtailm ent policy of the New Deal worse than’thiery.” Henry knows, as every other sensible person knows that there is only one security, and that is PLENTY., In Japan the milc-^biHTi^rnishfs whole or piriial livelihood fo r‘ at- least 18 million people. In the Unit ed states the New Deal “ worm” is furnished partial livelihood for over 22 million people. The jap "w orn” is eating out Uncle Sam’s vital’s. Here’s a piec* of red hot news: A special cable-to the New York Times says that Ambassador Josephus Daniels- and Mrs. Daniels spent three hours attending high mass in Mexico City on April lSsth. Read 6,td C hapteroftheB ook of Daniel and remember that a short time ago that Catholics were demanding that FDR recall Daniels from Mexico Has the Good Lord ever looked down on such a picture as the New Dealers have made? Here at home hundreds of thousands of workers in stock yards and packing houses, in cotton gins and elsewhere, have been made idle by the 3A and thrown on relief rolls, and the blue- dickens of it is that many of them have to be fed with m eat and grain imported from foreign countries. Pass the hartshorn. Well, by gatlins, it looks Iikie some of the New Deal “ plans’,’ are begin ningtow ork. First they said we were in a “ new order” , or new era It was proposed to stop droughts in the West by planting trees across the continent. It didn’t -somehow take much, but we could see certain changes” slowly taking : place. Fishing got better and the army of reliefers grew larger and now "we have got to where the Jaybirds - hoi- at night and the Whippoorwills in the daytime.

W arren evidently hasn’t forgotten that wonderful night where it is said he was a winner and it doesn’t seem to have affected his standing among North Carolina Democrats. The past week Warren came to the North Carolina coast on a fishing trip and had as hiB honor guest Jack Garner, the poker-playing Vice Presi dent. Inaddition to Garner there were several Senators in the party and they were quartered at a fishing club in Beaufort county. Douotless when the fish were not biting playing poker was in the ascendancy. Speaking of the poker playing aclivities.of Garner, a W ashington story sent out a few days ago says that “Jack Garner probably will go down as the greatest poker player in tbe history of Capitol hill. Jack is a member of the Boars’ club, where the stakes are high and tbe sky is the limit. The minimum' pile of chips with which you can enter, a game costs $500. At tbe end of one con gressional season, Jack figured up in his little black book that $68,000 was stithowed to him. All of- it, incident ally, was paid; except for a few hun- dred owed by oiie man. By saving his winnings, and by careful itivest- ment in real est^e,-Jick^G arner^ax one time just before: th e ' depression was reputed to be worth a million dollars—chiefly from poker. Oh the trip to the Philippines last autumii, Jack was engaged in a poker game when at midnight Mrs. Garner tried -to induce him to come to bed. But Jack was between $300 and $400 in the hole. He refused About 3 a m., however, he came into his state room. “ How much did'you lose?” inquired Mrs. Garner, sleepily. ‘A hundred dollars.’ ‘Go on back there and win it back,’ said his wife.

Does everybody believe that North Carolina had a fair and hon est primary Saturday? Just how much money has been spent in the last three months by the four gentlemen running for gover nor. no one will ever know. And the end is not yet. Well, the first primary is over, and another four weeks of vinifi cation and abuse is getting under way. The old convention system of nominating candidates for political office was bad enough but we believe the primary is worse. Clyde Hoey said last week that it would hurt President Roosevelt’s chances this fall should Ralph Mc Donald be nominated for governor. We had been under the impression all the time that Ralph and Franklin were bosom friends, and that Ralph was running on the Delano New Deal platform. Politics is some thing that is hard to understand. The Lexington Dispatch says that all the four democratic candi dates for governor are honest, re liable gentlemen, and that either of them is fully capable of making North Carolina.an excellent gover nor! If all the things these gentle men have said about each other are true, and if what the daily news papers in the state have said about one of them, in particular, is true, then neither is fit to be governor of any state. The TransylvaniaTimes, publish ed by our friend, Editor Douglas, at Brevard, seems to be under the impression that the Reynolds Ly- brook farms are near Winston-Salem in Forsyth county. This big cattle farm is in Davie county, and we have requested our friend Lybrook to set Editor Douglas right on this matter. Transylvania county farm ers are going to buy some of the Reynolds Lybrook Red Polled cattle at an auction to be held later this month: Hoey Carries Davie. Davie democrats marched to the polls Saturday and showed their Less than one thousand Republi cans took the trouble to go to thepolls Saturday and sbowea uwir Saturday and cast their votes preference for Hoey for Governor Representative.

Following the complete vote in Davie for Gov eruor: Hoey, 932 ; McDonald, 5 ° 7 Graham, 173; McRae, 3 is the vote received for the various county offices: Legislature — Brewster Grant 498; R. S.

Nine out of 11 precincts cast the following vote for Commissioner of Agriculture: Scott, 692; Graham, 164. * Reports from throughout the state indicate that Graham, the machine candidate was defeated by W. Kerr Scott for Commissioner of Agriculture. In the race for Lieu tenant-Governor, with about 1400 of the more than 1800 precincts re ported, Grady is running first with Horton secoad and McNeill third It is presumed that Grady and Hor ton will enter a second primary to be held on July 4th. Hoey Is Leading. Clyde R Hoey, of Shelby, is high man in the gubernatorial race in North Carolina, with Dr. Ralph McDonald, of Winston Salem, sec ond, and Sandy Graham third The total vote from 1809 precincts out of 1856 precincts, is as follows: Hoey, 189,784; McDonald, 185, 352; Graham, 125,135; McRae 6, 487. Josiah Bailey, for U S. Senate, seems to have a majority over bis three opponents. A second primary to settle the governorship and lieutenant gover norship race seems inevitable.

Later on, when Smith' told the country what he thought of Roosevelt and the New Deal, then the same democrats who cussed out Simmons in 1928, rose up and called him blessed; and cussed out Al. When Simmons voted and worked for Roosevelt in 1932, he was lauded by all the democi atic papers Lastw eekw henthissam e good man Simmons came out and endorsed Ralph McDonald tor gov ernor, the machine crowd again balled out Simmons. Consistency, thou art indeed a jewel. Therew asheldin North Carolina in 1933, a prohibition election. The voters of this state marched to the polls and voted for or against the legalized sale of liquor, or rather tor the repeal or the retention of the Turlington dry law. The people spoke In thunderous tones through the ballot box in favor of prohibi tion. In that election Max Gardner and Josiah Bailey, present U. S. Senator from North Carolina, marched out and voted against pro hibition, according to the editor of the Winston Salem Journal. We wrote Gilliam Grissom, Republican nominee for governor of North Carc lina, about, four weeks ago, and asked him to aidvise us how he voted on this questlon ^three years ago. We are still patiently waiting for an answer frotri ' Gilliam. We are anxious to know just what be did on this momenteous occasion. B. I.

From evidence uncovered at this meeting and at meetings in other parts of the state it became apparent that rural thievery was not the ,work of in dividuals, but of gangs. Often these gangs were led by seasoned criminals who had been driven from the cities by the efficient campaign against crime there. These leaders hired men to make systematic small thefts; the com bined total of all of them was enough to stamp the new racket as important. Cattle Rustling Returns. Even cattle rustling became big busi ness to the gangs, although it was not, to be sure, the cattle rustling of the old West. In these days of smooth, concrete highways and fast-moving trucks it Is possible to steal a few head of cattle, load them onto a truck and move them across a state in a single night Often the gangs worked in relays, one truck spiriting away the stolen animals and another waiting for the load to be transferred to it at the state line. Sometimes the gang’s hide out was 300 or 400 miles away from the area where most of their thievery was perpetrated. Farmers, slow to awaken to the seri ousness of the disappearance of their livestock and chickens a few head at a time, were often entirely unaware that their neighbors were experiencing Similar losses. Small losses were sel dom reported; farmers In some cases undoubtedly thought themselves fully capable of coping with a common chicken thief. Where it was actually discovered that the thefts were the work of gangs or of the more des perate type of criminal, farm families hesitated to report thefts for fear the burglars would return and set their houses or farm buildings on fire. . ■The answer seems now to be that in union there is strength. Thirty days after the WiU county farmers met and organ ized, Sheriff Breen was able to report that thievery had stopped. How did these farm ers effect this efficient clean-up so swiftly? E y e * O p e n e d , E a r * P e e le d . Definite Instructions are given all farm ers In the area. Farmers and their families are trained to be on the lookout for suspicious automobiles and suspicious-looking strangers and situa tions. When a theft is reported, the farmers Immediately report any ac tions or persons of a suspicious nature that they may h av e. observed at or near the time of the thett. More often than not the Information obtained leads to a solution of the crime. How this works may be shown by a few examples:Recently a man was convicted of cattle-stealing In Iowa. He had been transporting the cattle through Illi nois to his farm near South Bend, Ind. Two women saw bis truck at an station and the furtive manner of its occupants aroused suspicioD- A L! women copied the name and address from the side of the truck.

His actions and general conversation didn’t quite ring true. They were reported and Sheriff Clar ence Roth of Champaign county caught several cattle and hog thieves as a result. Other Methods Help. Cases just like these can be rattled off by the hundreds. Co-operation by all the farmers, a really simple thing to accomplish in areas where losses have been heavy, is about all that is needed. It has been shown that the gangs pull up stakes when the farmers unite against them. There are other methods which can be of great help. A large number of hen houses are now being equipped with burglar alarms which have proved effective. But even more important is the institution in each state of uni form registration of poultry and live stock. If it were required that some kind of identification mark be put on the web of the wing of poultry and on the ear or some part of the body of animals that would be a protecton. It is all too frequent an occurence that suspected criminals, when their cases come to trial, are of necessity acquitted because the complaining farmer has no way of positively identifying his poultry or his live stock. This “branding" can make such identification possible. ,A method has been developed in Illi nois which seems to fill the bill and which will probably be adopted soon by the farmers of other states,. The mark is quickly applied with a simple tool and the application is far more humane than the old-time branding with a hot iron and is in effect some what similar to tattooing. Branding, of course, would also re move the packing companies which buy John Blivernicht, whose murder at the hands of a rural thief stirred Illi nois farmers to action. the farmers’ product from embarrassing positions In which they sometimes find themselves. They, occasionally and quite Innocently buy stolen poultry or livestock from thieves without know ing it, and thus help foster rural crime. The law makes it mandatory for the buyers of stolen goods to reimburse the losers upon proof that the prop erty was stolen.

Chancellor Hitler of Germany joins In the “more and better babies" cry. The German ideal is no longer the beautiful golden-haired Margaret, spin ning her wheel and saying “No.” The Nazis demand women who, “above everything else, can become the moth ers of several children," and are will ing to do so, according' to a representa tive of Chancellor Hitler. William Philip Simms, English, is afraid the British empire may not sur vive, on account of “air fleet peril.” Britain is disturbed by the thought that her whole imperial line of com munication, stretching 4,000 miles from the Straits of Gibraltar to the Gulf of Aden, is under Mussolini’s bombing planes. Except that her empire is the biggest, England should not worry more than other countries. With sur face ships losing all Importance, except In the opinions of some Americans, anybody’s bombers can break up any line of communications temporarily. “Americans Investing huge sums In the Bahamas, to escape income tax,” says the New York Times, big type, front page. Americans have been "investing huge sums” elsewhere, outside of the United States. Billions of American money have gone to Canada, England and other “foreign parts.” More will go. In all the Bahamas, 4,403 square miles of beautiful territory, there is no income tax. Think of that for a happy country. Needless to say, if enough Ameri can money pours In to make it worth while the intelligent British will find a w ay to tax it. ? — - Germany has proved the “48-hours- from-Europe-to-America” possibility, with America looking on. . Now England is rushing prepara tions for a line of heavier-than-air planes to fly between England and America, starting in a few months, and the French, preparing a sim ilar. line, are negotiating for a balf-way harbor at the Azores. The southern route was said to be the wisest by Lindbergh, shortly after his great flight. Many Frenchmen are disturbed and puzzled by the situation in Europe, and General Mordacq, close associate of Clemenceau in the war, discusses the question, “What would Clemenceau do if he could come back?” France feels the need of “a man with a fist,” un homme a poigne, and Clemenceau was that kind. Concerning that fine old fighter from the Vendee, it is safe to say that if he came back he would hasten prepara tions for another war. But he would not have waited until now.

Leaders of organized labor claimed that from 30,000 to 45,000 strikers al ready were out, but employers chal lenged the union claims that the strikes were effective. Workers in six plants of Remington Band, Inc., were out on strike after union leaders ordered a walkout at Syracuse, N. Y. They said 6,000 work ers in the company’s New York, Ohio and Connecticut plants were Involved. Company officials asserted there were 4,200 affected. Six thousand barbers in lower Man hattan, New York, were ordered to join 3,000 others In a strike which had spread over a wide area of Manhattan, the Bronx and Brooklyn. Striking seamen in New York were said to number 7,000 and there was a good deal of trouble over their efforts to picket the piers and the home of Mayor La Guardia. Two hundred office workers and com pany police In Portsmouth, Ohio, were besieged In the strike-closed plant of the Wheeling Steel corporation; and In Akron, Ohio, employees of the Good year Tire and .Rubber company were arrested for violating an anti-riot law. In other states the union leaders thus estimated the number on strike: Arkansas—Three thousand tenant farmers. California—One thousand celery field workers. OregonandW ashington—Seven thou sand loggers. Wisconsin — Twenty-five hundred workers in various industries. Minnesota—About 500 millwrights, fur and cereal workers. Indiana—About 175 in various indus tries. Iowa—One hundred employees of the Burch Biscuit company in Des Moines. South Dakota—Three hundred butch ers at Morrell packing plant, Sioux Falls.

Senator Vandenberg of Michigan warned the majority leaders they had better not bring the resolution up In the senate If they really wanted ad journment by June 6, for he had 21 amendments to offer and each one would lead to prolonged debate.

They would have to report to the Pres ident by June 20 of this year. “ I? RANK O.

There was no name at that time upon which anyone could pin a prediction but there were circum stances, undercurrent In character, that seemed to point the way to the nomination of a man not then in the forefront of political prognostications. Of course, with the Republican con vention delegates pledged and un pledged here, there, and everywhere, it Is possible for almost anything to happen but my information Is that the leaders desire most of all to avoid a bitter battle. They wish to avoid the very thing which New Deal political -strategists bave been seeking to fo ment. Only the final ballot will tell the story, of course, but It does appear at this time that the Republican leader ship may display some good horse sense and seek to accomplish a nomi nation without splitting their party wide open. This “draft Lowden” movement has come on with almost startling sudden ness as I have Indicated above. It has resulted from the fact, apparently, that Mr. Lowden, while he was governor of Illinois a number of years ago and since that time, has built up for him self-a record as a friend of agricul ture. Thus, the strategy would seem to be that the Republican leadership Is turning to a man who can give Pres ident Roosevelt a run for his money In the farm belt states. As far as I know, Mr. Lowden has not been consulted respecting the nom ination. It would seem, however, that If he were nominated he would accept desplte-the fact that he has not sought the nomination In any way nor has he been very active in politics since he sought the nomination for the Presi dency In 1920. It was on that occa sion, it will be remembered, that he and the late General Leonard Wood fought through Into a convention dead lock and W arren G. Harding of Ohio finally was -nominated as a compro mise candidate. It Is difficult to see how the con servative element In the Republican party could refuse to back Sir. Low den and it is equally difficult to see how the farm representation and the liberals in the party could withhold their support when the Lowden farm record is considered. But all of this represents subject m atter that must aw ait convention action because, after all, there are still other candidates who have blocks of delegates behind them and they may be unwilling to withdraw unless they are satisfied with the dark horse that finally trots out onto the convention platform. • » • One hears more and more discussion In Washington these days of the' tax muddle in which T a x President Roosevelt M uddle . has found himself. I think it is fair to say that his prestige has suffered con siderably from the way his proposed tax increase was handled and I think It Is the general consensus that this year’s tax bill was a proposition to which the President gave too little thought. Sometime In the future, the history of the New. Deal will be written in a clear and comprehensive manner. The story then will show in retrospect that which we can hardly understand* now the good and the bad In the bewil dering adventures attempted under the policies of reform and recovery. I be lieve those who write that history will dwell upon the 1936 tax legislation as one of the im portant political weak nesses developed by Mr.- Roosevelt As far as I know, there has never been a public official who has been entirely consistent at all times In his methods and policies. Mr. Roosevelt, belng human, has been inconsistent like all of the rest and there was no reason to expect that he would be the one exception despite the fact that some of KIs followers maintain that he cannot make mistakes. tL0 Ilnk- the tax legislation witb the feet that Mr. Roosevelt is human, .. f ® c a * attention to the further fact that he has been bold, even daring, In many of hts moves.

WNU Service SYNOPSIS Leila -Seton, young and beautiful, and ■ an expert on paintings, is com m issioned to go over the collection of paintings in the home of the w ealthy K ellers in New York, w here a party is in progress. From her w indow she w itnesses a m an In another room strik e a woman. S hort ly afte r Mrs. K eller sends up w ord, ask ing her to join the party a t dinner. L eila hastily dresses and goes down. She is seated betw een Mr. Deck, a critic, and M onty M itchell, a noted law yer. Introductions follow. There are Mr. H arriden, Miss L etty Van A lstyn, Mrs. Crane, M rs. W atkins and P rince and P rincess R ancini, guests. Leila .finds she is tak in g the place of N ora H arri den. Dan H arriden leaves the table, and M itchell explains he has gone up to see how his w ife's headache is. He returns shortly. Deck, saying he m ust pu t in a call, leaves. Upon his return, he begs Leila to secretly tak e a m es sage to N ora “to tak e no steps until I see you," Leila consents. Leila finds th e H arriden rooms em pty and so in form s Deck. Com ing out she passes L etty. H arriden asks P rincess Rancini to run up and see his w ife. The prin cess reports the absence of Nora. Search is fruitless. H arriden adm its th a t he had a row, and believes she is spite fully hiding. L etty tells of seeing Leila come from the room. Leila accuses H ar riden of having stru ck his tvife. This H arriden denies. From the H arridens' window L eila sees w hat proves to be N ora's lifeless body. A ghastly head wound caused death. D an says she w as lying on her bed w hen he w ent to din ner, and Wiioil he ran up la te r the room w as dark. T hinking she w as asleep, he left w ithout seeing her. Mrs. K eller com es upon a pool of blood In th e closet. A diam ond chain Is m iss ing. Donahey, police inspector. Ques tions th e guests. H arriden fails to re po rt the row ho had w ith N ora. H e brands L eila's story of seeing a man strik e a wom an a lie. Anson, a maid, tells of seeing Deck outside the H ar riden door. Deck says he passed by In seeking a lost handkerchief. - CHAPTER IV—Continued — S — “I don’t know tvhat time I came up but I was loafing downstairs till I had to hustle to dress," Mitchell reported, ■ and Keller stated that he had gone up before the time in question and had been talking through the open doors with his wife. Donahey turned toward Alan Deck. “You, Mr. Deck?" Deck answered. “I went up fairly early to my room—though I haven’t any wife to vouch for it." His tone was lightly mocking. “After I changed I went to the picture gallery on the third floor—by the south stairs,” he mentioned. “My presence there JIiss Seton can certify to. We encountered each other there.” The inspector’s gaze moved back to me. "Appointment?" “Accident,” I told him. “We bad never met each other before." “What were you doing there?” I reminded him that the pictures were my business in the house. Alan Deck said merely, “Time on my hands —things to think out. Like a big place to tramp about In.” Donahey made more of his little notes. Then, as usual, he asked for the exact time of this encounter and listened wearily to our uncertainties that finally decided it had been a lit tle before eight. “That’s when I lost my handkerchief,” said Deck. “Now let me get this straight,” said Donahey. “Your rooms are In the south wing, second floor. Before din ner you went up to the gallery on the second floor, using the stairs on your side of the house. You met Miss Seton there, accidentally. You lost your handkerchief. During dinner you went up to call your paper, then you re membered that you had lost your handkerchief, probably in the gallery and you started out to find it. You went along the hall that goes across the length of the house, passing the door of Mrs. Harriden’s room.” “Among others,” interpolated Deck. “Was that when the maid saw vou?” Deck reflected. “No—when I was coming back from the gallery. She was coming from the south, along the hall toward me.” ! “O.K. The maid saw you and thought you might have been coming out of the room. That’s it, isn’t it?” “That’s it,” said Deck in his non chalant voice. “I might just have stopped, wondering if it was worth while to try that call again. I didn’t get it, the first time.” Donahey finished his notes without comment, then concentrated again up on me. "Now then—about this thing at- the ■window now—” “Can’t you forget that?” Harriden demanded. “Why do you want to waste your time—” “Now, now, Mr. Harriden, it may lead to something. It may have been some outside fellow, somebody who came here to see her on the Q T He—” Harriden made a surge forward and I thought the veins oh his congested face would burst. He looked almost a t the limit of his self control. “Are you suggesting that my wife had a clandestine visitor—’’ “Not the way you think at all,” the official Venn*** with his unmoved de- ' tachment. "She might have owed him money, gambling or something, or he might have been blackmailing her. Funny things like that happen. He may have forced his way in, and she -didn't want to give him away. She may have hid him in the closet and faked a headache so they could talk while you folks were eating. And then he made a grab at her shiners and they got to struggling, and he stabbed her.” Harriden cursed Iiim for a fool. “Do you think ray wife was ever afraid of a blackmailer?” he thundered. “Can’t you see this girl is just making this up to get herself some sensational Iimeliglit—” “Well, now, slie hasn't any reason for making it up, lias she?" Harriden gave me a sudden, strange look. “How do I know?" lie said wearily “I don't know a damned tiling about her except that she’s lying. She cooked up this story to cover up Iier going into my wife's room.” "Don’t you think, Mr. Donahey,” came Mrs. Crane's practical voice from somewhere behind us, “that this in vestigation lias gone far enough to night? It Is well on into the morn ing.” Donahey conceded, “Something In it, lady. There’s guards around the place and guards inside the house and nobody is to stir out till we get through with this.” We had risen to go out when one of the policemen came In, bringing a young man in the livery of an under butler. CHAPTER V He was rather a reedy looking young man, with a cadaverous face, prominent cheek-bones and deep-set eyes. He looked excited, and the po liceman with him was excited, as he boomed along to the inspector. Don ahey took the affairs into his hands. “My man says you’ve admitted know ing something. Now, what’s your name?" "Elkins,” said the man in a strained, nervous voice. “You work here?" “Yes, sir, for three years. And I mean no disrespect to my employers in speaking out about a guest. I un derstand it’s my duty to tell any thing that I might know.” “That’s your duty,” said Donahey grimly, “What do you know?” Elkins was breathing quickly. “People often forget that servants can hear,” be said. “They talk out while we’re passing things—it’s em barrassing. I was just behind that Chinese screen in the lounge when they were talking. I was taking glasses off a table. “It was the violence of what was being said that caught me,” Elkins went on. “Not like the ordinary run of talk of the cocktail hour.” Donahey only nodded encouragingly. “But it was savage sounding, sir. The lady was Mrs. Harriden. She had been drinking with the gentleman, talking together for some time. And then, when I was behind the screen, I heard him say in quite a terrible voice, though very low, 'If you do, you’ll be the sorriest woman on God’s earth.” “And what did she say?” "I didn’t catch that. I got the tone of her voice — it was like she was laughing sort of sassy,” said Elkins with a slip into the colloquial. “And the man said to what she said, ‘I warn you.’ And then he said some thing about lying, he said, ‘I’d say you lied In your teeth,’ and she said something again, that I didn’t hear. . . . Her words were all run together like. And then he said, ‘God, if you do!—I , warn you.’ And- then some body was asking for another shaker, and I had to hurry across the room. . . And when I heard she was ly ing dead downstair—well, I couldn’t say this had anything to do with it, but when the officer began asking me had I heard anything of their goings on and was there any bad blood about, why I’d have done less than my duty, sir, if I had covered the facts.” 'Sure. You had to tell it,” Dona hey said evenly. “Now—about this fellow. Who was he? You haven’t told us that, yet.” “There, sir. That gentleman there. Mr. Deck.” Deck stood there, and his white face, with his dark, bitter, defiant eyes, sent a queer terror through me. He was like a man In a pillory for all the world to gape at. And then my eyes went on, and found the figure of Harriden. He had stood there, back by the door, during that time, listening. . . . And now he looked at Deck. Donahey’s head was thrusting out on his thick neck like a turtle’s. “Well, Mr. Deck?” His silence agonized me. And then he said, “I don’t remember,” and his lips twitched in a mockery of a smile. “You don’t remember?” “Not a word. I was quite tight be fore dinner. . . . I haven’t the faint est recollection of anything said down stairs.” Donahey ground out, “Yet you re member that you went up early to your room, you said?" - "Oh, I remember that,”- Deck said jaunltly. “I got to my room all right,' he w tnt on, “and the cold water re vived me. But everything that went on downstairs is juflt a total loss.' “Do you happen to remember,” said the inspector with terrible sarcasm, “any reason why you could have said the words you have no recollection of saying to Mrs. Harriden?” Deck was silent. “What was between you?” Donahey shot out. "Friendship,” said Deck. I know that I felt I could not bear to look at Harriden, and yet !"looked at him and saw him standing, like a man of stone, his grim, blunt profile toward that younger man. The sheer beauty of Deck seemed somehow In solent and flaunting before that hus band’s haggard eyes. I felt a sharp cleavage of sympathy . . . terror for Deck and anguish for that bereft man’s pain. It was the easing of a physical strain when Harriden turned and walked out of the room. I remember a dull surprise at find ing it was only lialf-past two when I was In my room. I was so spent emotionally that I was conscious of nothing but a crush ing depression. Tliere was no denying the reality of Elkins’ high - strung words. And I Iiad my own corroboration of Deck’s desperate message, Take no steps. For all my exhaustion I could nor sleep; my Iitoughts kept milling about in confused conjecturing. Had Deck Iieen the man at the window—had he followed her up to finish the quarrel there? It might have been Deck, I thought. He might have slipped- away when he heard Harriden come in Ilie next room —she might have promised to meet Iiim as soon as possible in the gal lery. Then she did not come. Per haps her liusliand Iind stayed too long in the room. Wliat was their quarrel about, I wondered, my temples throbbing heav Ily against the pillow. Was she threat ening to leave him—was he mad with jealousy? The sorriest woman on God’s earth. . . . Had he gone up from din ner to carry out his wild threat? Oh, no, no, no! Only to-see her, to plead with her. For he had sent me up later to try to get word to her, to urge her to take no steps. . . . Oh, fool that I had been not to speak out before I Then my story might have carried conviction, but now it would seem a lame invention of mine to save him. Or had his sending me on that er rand been merely a ruse on his part, to make it appear that he still be lieved her in her room, when all the time he knew that room was unten anted and her poor body shrouded In the shrubbery below? I did not know what to believe. My mind went round and round In the mazes of Its doubt. . . . He had been so long away from that table. . . . But that had been because he was trying to reach her, my defensive heart instantly declared. He had told me that her room phone did not an swer—of course, he had gone to her door and knocked — perhaps even tried it I wondered if he had peeped In and found darkness and ghostly curtains blowing In the wind. Or if he had found the door locked—locked by an unknown assassin who was still inside. I determined to try to make Deck confide In me. Since I already knew so much, since I had proved stanch, surely he would tell me the truth., . . But if his sending me had been a ruse —? My mind wearied from all this wondering. At last I slept. I woke very suddenly. I woke to the instant impression that some one was in my room. I lay there with my 6 « 1 “People Often Forget That Serv ants Can Hear.” eyes shut, not daring to open them, trying to feign sleep, feeling in every nerve that something was there— something just within the door. There had been some sound, some indefin able sound that had waked me. ■ Every Instant the feeling grew more terrible; I knew then that fear could be paralyzing, for I lay there literally unable to move or speak, simply help less and terrified, waiting for some thing horrible to happen. Then there was a creak at the door and soft, muffled steps down the hall. I knew I was not imagining those steps; I heard them, though my own thump ing heart beats sounded louder to me. I suppose it was only a moment or two, really, that I lay in the grip of that helplessness, then motion-and sense came back to me, and I reached out and managed to flasl. on the night light with- fingers that' fumbled fran tically for the tiny chain as If .each instant of darkness was a danger. Then I jumped op and ran for the door. I forced myself to look out down the blackness of that hall. I saw noth ing. I heard nothing. I did-not gb out and look down the stairs; I dodged back and shut and locked my door. Should I call some one on the house phone? I moved toward it but hesi tated, caught back by the fear of some thing hysterical and panicky. It was easy for overwrought nerves to pJaj tricks and in my half-asleep condition I might have Imagined those sounds within my door. The steps, though, had been real. But the steps could easily be accounted for. Donahey had said the house was guarded and very likely one of the policemen was pa trolling the hall and, finding my door ajar, had paused to make sure my room was occupied. I persuaded myself that this was so. VVhat else could it be? Confidence had revived with the lighted room and I told myself the rustling had been only the night wind playing with the folds of my satin frock left lying on the chair by the door. My very excess of past terror and my ashamed reaction against .it swept me now too far in the other direction, for I did not phone. It was not easy to get to sleep again but I did, ultimately, and it was bright day when I waked, with the sun streaming across the - dark, polished floor, over the white fur rug, to glow on the rose-red of the deep-cushioned chair. But no sun could lift the de pression of that past night or banish the pictures moving before my eyes— Nora Harriden's limp, gold-clad body in her husband’s arms . . . that hus band’s face, rigid, grief-smitten . . . Deck's defiant, high-held head and his bitter,, tormented eyes. I must get to Deck, I thought ex citedly, and hurried into a cold show er, wondering what was done about breakfast in that house. I phoned the question and was informed that break fast would be up. Coffee was my chief need, black and hot, and I welcomed it all the more since the maid who brought the tray told me that the inspector would like to see me as soon possible. I took a last look at myself in the glass, then went downstairs. Tlie halls were empty; so, too, was the big entrance hall, except for a po liceman at the front door. In the ' drawing-room Donahey was behind his usual table. He nodded in response to my good morning, then jerked hit head toward a couple of young men at a table at the far end of the room and sent me to have my fingerprinti taken. That was to be expected, I thought, and certainly I had nothing to worry about, except that I was rather Inter ested in the process of print taking, for I knew something about the work, so I fell into chat with the two young men. It was just a formality, they said; there was nothing to be gained from all this print taking unless they got the print of some insider, for all the household had been over the room. “Except Deck," said a heavy voice beside us. I started, and found Harriden star ing down at us out of red-rimmed eyes. The man’s face looked as If years instead of hours had passed; the deep lines In it were accentuated till they seemed like seams,- and the flesh was sparer and tighter over the hard-angled bones. “Deck wasn't in the room after the murder—and don't you forget that,” he admonished grimly. I was impatient to see Deck. I thought of phoning to his room, then I remembered that a policeman might be listening in—I thought of getting in touch with Monty Mitchell and trusting him with a message. But Don ahey detained me then with more questions, and I had to go over what I had said before and tell him more about myself and how I_ happened to be there at all. At the end he told me I must appear at the inquest on Sunday morning. I went out in the hall and wandered about a little irresolutely, thinking that if I kept out in sight I might en counter either Alan Deck or Monty Mitchell without having to phone and betray my eagerness to the officials. As a pretext for lingering I read the papers over and over. The headlines were sensational__ Society Beauty Murdered — and the first pages were filled with stories of Nora’s life, and there was one account of the famous yellow diamond chain. The pendant on it, it was stated, was a flawless jewel which had been worn on the turbans of a royal Turkish family, for generations; the last heir had given it to Mrs. Harriden instant ly upon her expression of admiration —a costly gesture which her husband had paid for, later, by persistent M gea at cards. The chain, so the paper said, had been assembled by Mr. Harriden to match the pendant. My eyes raced through the accounts of the guests; there was no reference to Alan Deck except as “a favorite In the Long Island set.” No reporter I was sure, had been able to get in the house; the papers had had to take the facts that Donahey had given out. and the list of guests and do what thev could with their Imagination After the inquest, I supposed, Deck’s threats could no longer be kept sa. cret; the papers would make who* they could of th a t Luckily he would have his own paper to give a f ble version. But he would have to give an explanation of his wordfe—and I hoped fervently that the night had brought him counsel and inspiration Restlessly I wondered where ho ' keeping himself. 8 I began to think that all 0f th . guests were' upstairs, gathered in« mately In the Kellers’ private sitting room talking things over by them selves; I felt so alone In that housL that it was a comfort to see the Prlne!

D.. Member of Faculty, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.<$ W estern Newspaper Union. Lesson for June 14 JESUS CRUCIFIED LESSON TEXT—Luko 23:33-46.GOLDEN TEXT—But God commend eth his love toward us, in that, Whil1 we were yet sinners, Christ died - for us.—Romans 5:8.PRIMARY TOPIC—When Jesus Died for Us.JUNIOR TOPIC—The Savior—Christ the Lord.INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Jesus Died for Me.YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC-The Meaning of the Cross. It Is highly im portant that every teacher have the personal experience of Christ’s death for himself and then get his pupils to see that Christ’s death was Instead of their own death. We escape judgment because judgment fell upon Christ. He was made to be sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (II Cor. 5:21). No one lacking tiiis experience can truly teach this lesson. 1. The Place of Crucifixion (v. 33). They led him away to Calvary, a hill north of Jerusalem resembling a skull. Calvary is the Latin word, and Gol gotha is the Hebrew. This is a most significant name for the place where man’s redemption was accomplished. The skull is an apt symbol of man’s condition as a result of sin. Life and intelligence are gone, leaving only the dark empty cavern which once con tained them. II. His Companions on the Cross (v. 33). Two malefactors were crucified with him. This is in fulfillment of the Scriptures: “He was numbered with the transgressors” (Isa. 53:12). Per sonally, he was sinless, but he became sin for us. III. His Forgiving Love (v. 34). He cried, “Father forgive them.” He doubtless had In mind not only the sol diers who acted for the government, but the Jews who in their blindness were ignorant of the enormity of their crime. He was absolutely destitute of hatred, even for his betrayer and murderers. IV. The Revelation of the Wofld (vv. 34-43). Take a cross section of the world at any time since Christ was -cruci fied, and representatives of the vari ous classes therein were found around Jesus on the cross. The cross is the judgment of this world (John 12:31). L The covetous (v. 34). They gam bled for bis seamless robe where he was dying. This represents those whose primary interest in Christ is a means to get .gain. If they bad had eyes to see they could have beheld a robe of righteousness being provided in his death. 2. The indifferent (v. 35). “The people stood beholding.” They gazed upon him with indifference. Thegreat mass of the world today gazes upon the crucified Christ with stolid indif ference. 3. The scoffers (vv. 35-39). a. The rulers reviled him for his claim to be the Savior. They wanted a Savior but not a crucified one. Many today are religious but have only con tempt for a salvation which centers In an atonement made by blood. They uttered a great truth when they said: “H e saved others.” B ut' he could not save himself and others because God’s plan was to save others by giving himself. b. The- soldiers reviled him for claiming to be a king. The title “King of the Jews” had been placed over him In irony. But it was pre-eminently true, for by right of the Davidic cov enant, he shall one day be king over Israel (II Sam. 7:8-16). Through his death, he came Into the place of Lord ship over all who acknowledge him. , c. The impenitent malefactor (v. 39). This brutal man joined In re viling tlfe Savior, even though he him self was under condemnation. 4. The penitent malefactor (vv.40843). The conscious sinner who discerned the heart of the Savior prayed for mercy. The salvation of this penitent man is a remarkable picture of the saving power of Christ. The man con fessed his sin as against God and cried to Jesus for salvation. He saw that toe dying man w as the forgiving God. His salvation was immediate. Christ said: “Today shalt thou be with me In paradise.” V. The Death of Christ (vv. 44-46) So shocking was this crime that na ture herself threw around the Son of Giffi a shroud to hide him from the godless crowd. • Darkness was upon toe land a t noonday. When the price of mn was paid he cried with a loud Ih lt h t 0T nI that he stm had vitality, toat his death was not through ex- H e S B k ' b?

Blackwood, of Mayodan. on Wednes day morning, June 3, 1936 at 10 o’clock at the home of the bride’s mother, Mrs. Henry Clay Koonts, of Mocksville in the presence of the immediate family and a few friends. The vows were spoken in the living room before the mantel, which was massed with roses and ivy, while white floor candelabra with white candles and white pedestals twined with ivy held vases regal lilies and white larkspur on either side. The impressive ring ceremony of the Methodist church was performed by Rev J. A. J . Farrington, of Thom aaville, a former pastor of the bride and groom. The bride was charming in a be coming pale blue crepe ensemble, trimmed with silk cord, wmte hat. blue and white accessories, and cor sage of gardenias. She is a very at tractive young lady, and a talente musician. She is the youngest daugl- ter-of Mrs. Henry Clay Koonts and the late Mr. Koonts, formerly of Cooleemee.

IM* lLibertyLedgiie and New Deal Administration Leaders Once Grateful for — Du Pont Gifts. One recent speech on the floor of the United States Senate has changed substantially the character of the New Deal’s campaign arguments. The speech put almost a complete stop to the New Deal trick of answering all criticism by pointing a finger at the American Liberty League. When the attitude of'the New Deal was assailed as being dangerous to the preservation of the Constitution it had been the cus tom to ask “Who is back of the Lib erty League?" When a question was raised as to the tremendous waste In WPA the New Deal answer, almost in rubber stamp form, was, “The Liberty League is trying to drive suffering hu mans back into the soup lines.” This stock argument had been picked up and repeated, parrot like, until In some quarters it was regarded as a complete defense of everything the Ad ministration had- done, or' had not done. Senator Daniel 0. Hastings, of Delaware, knocked over this scare crow in his address to the Senate on April 20. He did it by proving conclu sively that Important leaders of, and contributors to, the Liberty League were supporters of the present New Deal organization In the 1932 cam paign. He recalled the fact Ihat Demo crats now in the League contributed heavily In money and in other cam paign services to the Roosevelt and Farley group.Loyal to Platform. This support of the Administration, Senator Hastings explained, was later withdrawn because the leaders men tioned would not travel the socialistic road that the Administration chose and which took it far away from the basic principles of the Democratic plat form of 1932. . Senator Hastings called attention to the fact that the following named dis tinguished Democrats were members of the.League’s Executive Committee: . John W. Davis, who was the stand ard bearer of the Democratic Party In 1924. Alfred E. Smith, who was the stand ard bearer of the Democratic Party In 1928. Joseph B. Ely, former Democratic Governor of Massachusetts. Irenee du Pont, a strong supporter Cf Roosevelt In 1932. John J. Raskob, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee. ,Mt. Raskob, it was pointed out, while ,not a member of the Executive Com, mlttee of the League, is a member of the League’s National Advisory Council. The Delaware Senator told of the ipraise the present New Deal standard- bearer gave to Jouett Shouse for his fine service In reorganizing the Demo cratic ranks after the 1928 defeat President Roosevelt said of Mr. Shouse and Charles Michelson, after the Roosevelt nomination In 1932, "They made the country realize that the Democratic party was very much alive.” Mr. Shouse, who had been chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee, is now President - of the American Liberty League. Contributions to Democracy. John J. Raskob, afterward attacked by the New Deal, was shown by Sen ator Hastings to have contributed $375,000 to the Democratic Party be- ' tween September_12, 1928 and October •21, 1932. Senator Hastings asked: “Were these contributions made in an effort ‘to ridicule and drive back into the soup lines the great number of unemployed men and women who are simply asking an opportunity to earn . a living for themselves?” Senator Hastings then went on to show how generously several members of the du Pont family had contributed to the Democratic cause. He cited the ifact that Pierre S. du Pont had given $50,000 to the Democratic National Committee In 1928. Mr. du Pont gave $25,000 In 1929 and $15,000 in 1932. One of the most Interesting items ; brought forward by Senator Hastings was that of a contribution of $5,000 imade by Irenee du Pont to the Demo cratic - Committee in April, 1933, „ month after President Roosevelt had been inaugurated. Said the Senator: ‘If Mr. Farley had any real gratefulness in his own i soul, he would not make such violent i attacks upon those who had been such ' a help to the party he now represents i as National Chairman.” would be almost' 6,000 millions of dollars. ' . The public debt on April SO, 1936, was $31,425,440,395.88. That Is an in crease over the same, date of last year of $2,757,334,004.90. The taxpayer is going deeper" and deeper Into the red. Spending more than we take In has been piling up the same sort of score for the last three years. Spending has made a dean sweep In all games against Income. . N o T inkoring Those who would tinker with the Constitution or the Federal ^ Courts either intentionally Ignore, or have not grasped, the fact that common sense and a few fundamental concepts are permanent possessions of the public. The people have never allowed them selves to be very far removed from those possessions. The ttnkerers might as well try to change the stripes Of the flag to pink and blue and throw out the stars. T h is A u th o r H a s E x p lo r e d A f r ic a , H u n te d G o r illa s A biography of Mary Hastings Brad ley, whose latest novel, “Dnconfessfed,” this paper now brings you In serial form, might easily prove as fascinating as many of the eminently thrilling nov els and short stories she has produced. Born and brought up In Chicago, she began to write when only fourteen. Receiving her degree at -Smith col lege, she studied In England, with some travel In Europe and Egypt, and then returned to Chicago- where she mar ried Herbert Edwin Bradley, Chicago attorney. Meanwhile her contributions were appearing regularly In "Cosmo politan, Munsey’s, and the Woman’s Home Companion. Her first novel, "Favor of Kings,” appeared in 1912, And since then she has written fic tion steadily. Among her more recent successes were “Murder in Room 700” and “Road of Desperation.” But Mrs. Bradley is not alone a suc cessful novelist; she Is noted as an African explorer an'd as a writer about Africa and its wild life. She accom panied her husband on Carl E. Ake- ley's famous expedition which was sent by the American Museum of Nat ural History into the Belgian Congo to obtain gorillas. She made a sec ond expedition Into Belgian Congo In 1924, and was a member of the first party to traverse the region west of Lake Edward. She went after tigers in Sumatra and In’do-Chinain 1925 and returned again to Africa In 1931 to study the Pygmy and Mangbetou tribes. Her travels have' resulted in such well-known books as “Caravans and Cannibals,” “On the Gorillg Trail,” and 'Trailing the Tiger,” and In subh books for younger readers as “Alice In Jun- gleland” and “Alice In Elephant Land.” She is a fellow of the-Royal Geograph ical Society and a member of the Soci ety of Women Geographers. ,L a te s t B o x S c o re s in t h e T a x p a y e r s ’ L e a g u e - If the taxpayer were to look no fur ther than the first item of the latest Treasury report, he might feel almost cheerful about the way things are go ing. He would find that the Govern ment receipts for the first nine months of'the present fiscal year were $3,330,- 624,850.40. That is an increase of $240,007,860.27 over receipts during the same period of last year; These re ceipts were largely from Income and customs .taxes and the. taxpayer might well'be- proud of his increasing con tribution. Expenditures, however, continued to shpw an increase, and this item In the GoVSrmhent report iTeads the usual troop, of eviT results: increasing defi cits,^additions to the huge public debt and a budget that is still far oft bal ance. Expenditures for the nine-month ,period were $5,967,997,515.70 which' was an increase of:$108,919,399.21. The Administration’s deficit for the nine months was $2,637,665.36, Secre tary Morgentbau informed a Senate Committee recently that by the end of the present Jfecal year the 1936 deficit: The “Him” of Thanks giving.

Near Reed Spring, Missouri;' in December, 1935, the CWA was just gaining momentum, they started a project pertaining' to the Reed Spring Spring School.

After a great part of the day was spent digging Mr. Opossum out they skinned him and sold his hide for 25c.

Farmers used the loans. primarily to purchase seed, fertilizer, and farm supplies. Secretary Darr stated. “ With a good outlook in farm con ditions and production money avail able at-reasonable rates, many farm ers in this section are starting to finance their operations on a cash basis,’ ’ he continued. “Storekeepers and supply merchants are selling to more farmers , for cash this spring than for a number of years.

NORTH CAROLINA, W EDNESDAY, JUNE 17. 1936. Ragweeds And Cockle * burs. Upton G. Wilson in WUnston Jour nal. If those who imagine themselves the body and brain of the Demo cratic party in North Carolina will use some of the brain they undoubt edly possess in a little analytical thinking, it may occur to them to wonder .what reason they have for believing they can retain command of their party, or retain the semb lance of a party even, if governors of their selection are to leave office so unpopular that their political friendship is a political'liability for those candidates so unfortunate as to possess it. The success of any party in a state where there is a forceful op position party, as is obvious to all, is dependent upon the popularity of its elected officials and the policies they espouse. ■ No party in a state where Republicans and Democrats are pretty evenly divided can hope to force on the people by way of the ballot box candidates who advocate unpopular measuie and who are politically affiliated with officehold ers and former officeholders who have also advocatee unpopular poli cies. In North Carolina, of course, the two major parties are not evenly divided. The Democratic party is, ’and has been for a third of a cen tury, dominant. Those who love the party, we.suppose, wish to see it continue its d om inancy/r^hat better' way'can they promdfe this dominahcy, then, than by securing for the party popular officials, of ficials who do not IeaveUpffice hated, and despised? In this connection we wish to ask yet another question. If there were a strong Republican party in North Carolina, would the Demo cratic party in the state dare to champion the sales tax? The an swer to that question, we think, is obvious. It would not. It would endeavor to secure a candidate for governor who has a record of op position to the sales tax. Wby would it do this? The answer tp that "question is also obvious. It would do so in order to win the elec tion in November. The Republican party in North Carolina has recorded itself in op position to the sales tax. Tbe party’s voting strength in the state is approximately 33 per cent, of the registered suffrage. In newspaper polls the Democratic anti sales tax candidate has secured 48 per cent of the Democratic vote. That means, if figures may be trusted, that, ap proximately 65 per cent, of the vot ers of North Carolina are opposed to the sales tax. Yet in the face of these facts and in the face of the further fact that ourgovernor and his immediate pre decessor have not proved popular officials, the faction of the party dominated by these two officials is attempting to continue the sales tax and to secure the nomination of e man of their choosing for governor If they are successful and North Carolina during the next four years has another unpopular Democrattc governor; what of the party’s out look in 1940 ? Will the people con tinue to submit to minority rule or who will govern in accordance with their wishes? Are misguided and intolerant Democratic party moguls trying to set the stage for another Populist victory? „ ■ . , Right now, but for the Tact tha the Republican party in North Ca- rolina is politically importent, the unpopularity of the state s nor and the one • who came would be giving Democratic.

Almost e ery"city, town and ham let has its John Jones, -but only Wilkes county has "the” John R. Jones So familiarly is he known all over the country that a letter addressed to “John R.” in all probability would reach its destination - “John R.” is the only Republican solicitor in the courts of North Caro lina. He is serving his third term as solicitor in the 17th judicial district, composed of the counties of Wilkes, Davie, Yakin, Mitchell and Avery He was unopposed in his candidacy in the last campaign. John R Jones, the prosecuting at torney, has brought many notorious criminals to justice and succeeded in rounding up many murders, bandits and major offenders of the law, but John R. Jones, dairy farmer and proprietor of the famous Meadow Brook Dairy, one of the outstanding grade “ A” dairies in northwest North Carolina, is almost as well known John R„ when outside the atmos phere of the courtroom, has his hob bies. Chief among them is his fond ness for country life and purebred livestock. Perhaps this is due to the fact that he is a son of the soil, for he was born in Stokes county, under the shadow of old Pilot moun tain, the son of a farmer of limitep means. •• To satisfy his pet. hobby John R. deserted hia.home in North Wilket- boro several years ago. purchased a 20 d:acretract six^ m iles-^ tjjn /th e country on Bighway: residence of logs and stone, equipped with every modern convenience of the city home, including ; electricity, hardwood floor, running water, etc No sover eign ever enjoyed his royal palace more than does John R. bis "Log Cabin” as he terms it. The surrounding of-the home, the beautiful natural grove where mai-y species of native mountain shrubs and trees grow, make an ideal set ting for rustic structure. From the home is afforded a dis tinct view of the Blue Ridge peaks of Wilkes and Alleghany. The fam ily living room is spacious with higb ce ling, a huge fireplace and chimney of jagged stone built* in attractive design. The sunroom and other rooms of the home have the stone fireplaces, where he can bask in the warmth and cheer of a crackii.g log fire, crew-his tobacco at wifi, and spit where he pleases. Meadow Brook Dairy farm with its 200 acres of rolling land, 100 in- a high state of cultivation and with a one-mile frontage on the highway, is situated in one of tbe most- pic turesque spots of the Wilkes county foothills, within easy view of Little Grandfather a n d Grandmother, Chestnut mountain,' Flat Top, Camp bell, and other beautiful peaks of the western hills. Solicitor Jones purchased the tract 1.0 years ago. and two years- later, started a dairy business in a small way with about half a dozeir-grade cows. From this small beginning has grown one of the finest dairy farms in the state, with a herd of 50 purebred Jersey - cows, many of which are descendants of Gamboge, Sensational Fern, Oakwood’s De. FoX, Black Fox and other noted Strains.

Charges of WPA’s diversion to . political purooses continue to pile up in Congress, although members, meaning the high-riding majority, go blithely along their way to an other huge appropriation, another election and a serene acceptance of WPA-sters’ own assurance that all’s well and high-minded in their relief heaven. *- Back of this serenity, however, the public knows lie an accumulation of evidence upon conditions in Pennsyl vania and West Virginia, produced In the latter instance by a Democratic s -nator; the more recently divulged letters from Tar Heel honorablea, with Our Bob’s missive obligingly setting forth the necessary procedure for “all cases” ; and, still later, de velopments in Missouri where critics have responded to Administrator Hopkins’ request for “specific infor-- mation.” In reply to this request, Repre sentative Curtis has produced letters and affidavits which he assures will show that: Persons are denied relief unless they permit their ballots to be mark ed by Democratic politicians and con tribute to Democratic campaign funds. y Women workers, in WPA sewing r ioms in Sedalia, Mo., were required to go to a saloon-and “sign up” as members of a Democratic club; Those women who refused to do so were discharged. Male workers on relief were re- qiiired tb subscribe to a Democratic newspaper or be Btricken from rejief roils. • ' ' _ ; To be sure, this is Jhe usual line'of political procedure and attack, es pecially during an election year; but nevertheless the charges involve us age of public funds and concern a matter, preying-upon human want and suffering, which is much more capable of being vitiated than prac tically any other business which Con gress and the government have taken upon themselves. Adhering to the same political customs and procedure what do you reckon the Democrats, now smiling sweetly upon protestants some few of whom at least may fee more humanely than politically moti vated, wouid be saying if the situ ation were reversed, the Republicans held the money-bags and. ail efforts to develop the truth or the falsity of their accusations were laughingly, likewise peremptorily, denied?—Ex.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES: ONE YEAR. IN ADVANCE SIX MONTHS. IN ADVANCE i I OO $ 50 So far as we have been able to learn not a fight occurred in Davie county during the heated primary that came to a close on the night of June 6th. Just what will happen between this date and the night of July 4th, remains to be seen. Less than a thousand Republicans took the trouble to go to the primary on the 6th and cast their ballots for the Republican candidate for repre sentative, coroner and commission ers. Should the Republicans be as d.illtary in November as they were in June, this county would land in the Roosevelt camp. Inthe death of Dr. John T. Bur- rus at his home in High Point last week, North Carolina loses one of her best known physicians, and a man who wasn’t afraid to express himself on all public questious. He was a democrat, but one who believ ed there were good men In all par ties. He represented bis county two terms in the State Senate, and did much charity work in the Bur rus Memorial Hospital, in his home town. His sudden death brought sadness to hundreds of friends throughout the state. There is to be a second primary in North Carolina on July 4th. This primary would have had to called regardless of wbat stand Dr Ralph McDonald took, as there were several candidates in the race who didn't receive a majority over their opponents It will be charged by Hoey supporters that McDonald is responsible for putting the extra ex pense on the state ot calling a second primary. If we are not mistaken Mr. Horton, who ran in second place for Lieutenant Governor, was the first man to ask for a second primary. It is indeed a pity that this state has to put in another three weeks of slander and vilhfication. Landon And Knox Nominated. _ Cleveland, June 12.—A ticket of Landon and Knox—the Chicagoan nominated unanimously as was the Topeka governor before him—to day was cast before the Republican national convention against the re election of Franklin D. Roosevelt. - In a mighty demonstration the 21st national gathering of the par ty this afternoon decided without a single “ nay” upon the selection of Col. Frank Knox, 62-year-old New Hampshire and Illinois publisher Tonight a thousand delegates scat tered to the four corners of the compass to throw themselves into the campaign. Concededly, it will be a bitter one. The picture of today’s wind up was a colorful and noise-marked one, even though it did not match the peaks of previous sessions sessions. Some of the delegates al ready had gone home Others were weary, aching and lung sore from three days and nights of going. To the tune of “ Mine Eyer Have Seen the Glory of the Coming of the Lord,” shrilled by a feminine soloist, the weary delegates shuf fled quietly out of the huge hall that had resounded with the noise of eight day and night sessions Some of the delegates halted their homeward dash to attend a meeting this afternoon of the new ly chosen Republican, national com mittee. Here again the conven tion keynote of harmony and un animous vote ou all questions pre vailed. John D. M. Hamilton, the ener getic redhead who has steered the Landon ship up to and through the nomination, was given carte blanche power by the committeemen. Before he himself was named chairman of the national commit tee. Hamilton offered a quickly adopted motion that the chairman, when appointed, be given authority to name the other officer and com mittees of the full committee. , Farmington News.

From her w indow she w itnesses a man in another room strik e a wom an. S hort ly afte r Mrs. K eller sends up word, a sk ing her to join the party a t dinner. Leila hastily dresses and goes down. She is seated betw een Mr. Deck, a critic, and Monty M itchell, a noted law yer. Introductions follow. T here are Mr. H arriden, Miss L etty Van A lstyn, Mrs. Crane, Mrs. W atkins and Prince and Princess Rnncinit guests. 'L eila finds she is taking the place of Xora H arri den. Dan H arriden lea\'es the table, and M itchell explains he has gone up to see how his w ife's headache is. He retu rn s shortly. Dock, saying he m ust put in a call, leaves. Upon his return, he begs Leila to secretly take a m es sage to N ora “to take no steps until I see you.*' Leila consents. Leila finds the H arriden room s em pty and so in form s Deck. Coming out she passes L etty. H arriden asks Princess Rancini to run up and see his wife. The prin* cess reports the absence of Nora. H ar riden adm its th a t he had a row , and believes she is spitefully hiding. L etty tells of seeing Leila come from the room. Leila accuses H arriden of having stru ck his w ife. This H arriden denies. From the H arridens' window Leila sees w h at proves to be N ora’s lifeless body. A ghastly head wound caused death. Dan says she w as lying on her bed w hen he w ent to dinner, and when he ran up later the room w as dark. T hink in g she w as asleep, he left w ithout see ing her. Mrs. K eller com es upon a pool of blood in the closet. A diam ond chain Is m issing. Donahey, police inspector, questions fhe guests. H arriden brands Leila's story of seeing a man strik e a wom an a lie. Anson, a maid, tells of seeing Deck outside the H arriden door. D esk says he passed by in seeking a tost handkerchief. Elkins, a servant, tells of overhearing Deck threaten Mrs. H arriden earlier in the day. Deck ex plains he w as intoxicated and does not rem em ber. T hat night Leila aw akes w ith the im pression of some one being In her room and then hears steps In the hall. Believing she w as m istaken, ehe does not report it. CHAPTER V—Continued To make conversation I asked him Ir he had known Mrs. Harriden well. I knew that he had landed only a day or so ago, but I thought they had probably met abroad. Instantly his eyes changed. He looked at me narrowly as if question ing what I meant. "One has met—but who knows anybody?” Ue said, with his shrug. I said, "Who, indeed?” in his own Italian, and at that he changed back to smiles and began to spout Italian at me. I felt so eager for some one human to talk to that I told him why I was there, and he declared that he must see that famous gallery, he roust learn something of the ways of detect ing frauds. He would go with me to that gallery, he said. It was when I was saying, “But when could we go?” that his wife glid ed to my side. I hadn't heard her come up nor had he, and his face was a comical study in boyish-looking guilt. Aloofly, the Princess Gancini mur mured, “I think you are wanted by the police. They asked me to tell you M ary Hastings Bradiey C opyright by D. Appleton* C entury Co., Inc. W NU Service his palms. From the opening folds his thick fingers picked up a chain strung with glittering stones. He stared at it, then dangled it before us all. It was a chain of diamonds— jellow diamonds. CHAPTER VI •I Think You Are Wanted by the Police.’’ to come,” and began to talk in wear ied tones to her husband as if I was dismissed. I thought, furiously, that she was one of the most hateful women I had ever m et I didn’t take time to wonder what Donahey wanted now; I just went straight to the table where he was standing, with a little group about him. There was a man in uniform, I noticed, and tlie Kellers with Dan Har riden and Monty Mitchell. In the midst of my “Good mornings,’’ my eyes fell on a dress lying over a chair, Its folds trailing—my frock, the Ice blue satin frock I had Vorn the night before. I didn’t have time for anything but astonishment when Donahey spoke, measured!?. “You recognize this dress', Miss Seton ?” “Of course. -It’s mine.” p 0r no reason that I could name or help my voice sounded defiant He went forward and lifted a fold of blue satin, disclosing the underside of the skirt There, pinned by a safe ty pin, hung a little sort of bag, like a tied-up handkerchief. “And you'recognize this?” i “Why no—what Is it?” I stammered. With slow deliberation he undid the ,pin, and M the cloth drop la one of I wa3 too astonished to speak; I stood staring at the dress, then a recollection of the last time I had seen it, lying over a chair in my room near the door, swept my mind back, in a Hash, to those noises in the night. I blurted, “Why, Jhere was some one then—there was some one there!” Hurriedly I tried to tell them about it, about my waking and my fright, and my conclusion that It was just the steps of a policeman moving about outside, and as I stammered out the story I saw disbelief in their faces and could hardly blame them for it. Oh, the idiot that I had been not to have phoned some one at once! It seemed too mad to put into words. Carefully I controlled my voice which was shaking with excitement and said stiffly, "But you must see what this means—that the one who stole those diamonds was in this house last night —that he must be still hiding about—’’ "We've combed this house with a fine tooth comb, young lady,” said Donahey, "and there's no one In U except those whose names we know. Nobody has got out of here during the night or this morning. It’s been surrounded.” "Then he’s here now,” I said. “He’s here, all right,” Donahey echoed with ominous finality. "And he isn’t going to get away.” Monty Mitchell said thoughtfully, ''Ji pity you have let this find be known. The thief, whoever he was, might have meant to hide the stones only till the first flurry of searching died down. He could feel reasonably sure that Miss Seton wouldn't be wearing that dress tonight, too light and gay and all that, so he thought he had a good temporary hiding place.” I was passionately grateful for his words and for his coming and stand ing by me, as if casually. "Why do you imagine he chose that dress for a hiding place?” asked Don ahey very slowly as if picking his way. “The position of the room, for one thing,” said Mitchell. "It was near the art gallery, and its door was vis ible from the gallery door—later on the gallery would have been a good lurking place till he saw his chance to nip In ,and retrieve the jewels. I rather think he meant to retrieve them,” he went on thoughtfully, screw ing up his black eyebrows, “for they are too valuable to ignore. . . . You said the dress was right by the door, didn’t you?” he asked of me. “On a chair by the door,” I re peated. Donahey glanced up and said, “Does it strike you as feasible, Mr. Mitchell, that any one who committed murder for those diamonds would take a eiiance on losing them afterwards?” “Very feasible,” said Mitchell, "if he found the trail getting too hot. , . . But you don't know that the one who hid them was the one who did the murder.” “No?” said Donahey. “No,” said Mitchell, very firmly. “Some one may very well have found them afterwards and just not men tioned it. And then he got cold feet for fear of being suspectcd of the mur der and so got rid of them in this hiding place.” “Sounds far-fetched,” was Donahey’s comment. “What’s the m atter with this girl’s hiding them herself?’’ It was out in the open'at last the accusation. ‘Well, there are lots of matters against that,” said Mitchell In a very reasonable tone. “One Is that Miss Seton isn’t the sort of person who goes about hiding diamonds.” The Inspector grunted. “Somebody hid ’em. Somebody got ’em off Mrs. Harriden’s neck. And you can’t deny that this girl had the opportunity when she went upstairs, after dinner—” ‘The room was empty when I en tered it,” I flashed at liim. That’s what you say.” Anson must know that she made' the room before I came up,” I said. “The Princess Rancini was up just after me, and she found the room ready for the night, th e re wasn’t time, between our visits—” I couldn’t go on. Donahey's thoughts were following mine. “No-no, there wasn’t time,” he conceded equably. “Not for the kill ing. . . . But there’d have been time enough for you to pick up the shin ers, ’ he ..added. “You might have found them lying about” I stared back at him and hardiness came to me. “You are very wrong,” I said curtly, “and you are wasting time you dugbt to spend In finding the real criminal.” “Anybody might pick up diamonds,” said Donahey, loking me over with his experienced eyes. “But why would they be left there?” I went on, trying desperately to be lu cid.. “Why would any one who killed Mrs. Harriden for her jewels go away and leave them behind?" “He might not have killed her for her jewels,” Donahey pointed out. “Then you came along and did the finding—” Harriden’s voice overtook his. Har riden had been standing there, ■ watch- ;icg. his eyes as hard as flints now, suddenly, he Intervened. "She was Deck’s confederate," he said. “The thing’s clear enough. He did the kill ing. It may have been for—for rea sons of his own—” the harsh voice grated over the words then went In- domi Kibly on, “but certainly cupidity played a part afterwards. He took that chain. Stuffed it into his pocket and went down to diner. Passed it to Miss Seton at the table. She went upstairs to hide them in her gown." ‘ But why. theD, would she go Into your wife’s room?” Mitchell wanted to know. “There's a diamond missing,” said Harriden grimly. "The big one. He sent her up to look for It She made up this cock - and - bull story of a slapped cheek as an excuse.” There was a dreadful silence. H ar riden went on, "She may have found it, and she may not. Deck may have the diamond on him, He may have been holding out on her.” I said In a low voice, “This would all be funny if it wasn’t so terrible,” and !Ir. Keller murmured uneasily, “You’re going pretty far in your ac cusations, Dan. . . “You were meeting Mr. Deck in the gallery just before dinner,” Donahey reminded me. “Now how about that?” “I told you that was sheer accident” JIitcIieIl created a brisk diversion. Mr. Harriden's feelings are really not evidence. Xow that cloth those dia monds were tied up in is evidence. -May I see it?” Donahey handed it over. It was a piece of linen, a fine hemstitched hand kerchief, with one corner torn out as if to remove a monogram. The cloth was crumpled and faintly stained. Mitchell examined it, then passed it to me. “What do you make of it, Miss Seton ?” "It's' been washed,” I said, trying hard to speak normally. “Washed and dried. Those brown marks look like radiator marks.” “Washed, by Jimmy!” Mitchell was alert as a terrier. "Now what do you think was washed out, Mr. Inspector?” We all knew the answer to that— blood. “Your man going over the hand kerchiefs in this house?” Mitchell rather sharply asked of Donahey, and Donahey passed on his disrelish at the rebuke in the bruskness of his tone to his subordinate, as he gave the order. Harriden said, belligerently, that prob ably the man hadn't used his own. “Then why tear out the monogram?” Mitchell retorted. His keen eyes, be hind their glasses, studied Harriden almost banteringly. “Trying to dis credit the clue, in case the hankies don’t match?” Harriden reddened. “I’m not mak ing a secret of what I think,” he said harshly. "Deck threatened my wife, and he carried out his threats. And, by God, I'll bring it home to him I As for this girl, who was his accom plice—’’ “Don’t let your feelings get the bet ter of your judgment,” the lawyer ad vised drily. “You’ve every reason to be sore as hell, but don’t get a com plex, and try to fit the facts to i t ” He swung around to Donahey. “Let me know when you have that hanky report, and I'll be back for It. Both of us will,” and his arm on my arm turned me about with him and headed me toward the door. “Let’s go and talk this over,” he said to me. His tone was so friendly, so Inti mate, that I was touched to the quick; I had never needed a friend more In my life. Together we went out Into the hall and he led the way to a deep cush ioned couch and proceeded to light cigarettes for us both. “Now this is very interesting." he said cheerfully. "I wonder If you have any chemicals with you that could test those spots on that handkerchief? Find out if they are rust or blood?” At my assent he said, “Good!” heartily and then, “I’ll get Donahey to give you the handkerchief. He'll prob ably send a guard with it. It’s pretty Important evidence—about all we' have so far.’’ “Harriden’s down on Deck like hell.” I ventured, “Was Deck—was Mrs. Harriden—?” ‘Oh, her infatuation was notorious, don’t know the Ins and outs—I wasn’t one of their intimates. I nev er liked her." “I don’t see how you could resist her,” I said honestly and thought of her dark, amazing eyes, her slim, se ductive loveliness. “Oh, a man could lose his head over her—Deck did, apparently—but I do^’t lose my head,” the young lawyer in formed me. “She wasn't likable.’’ And I thought of Nora Harriden’s dead mouth, with its sharp, cruel edges. . ' . "Whatever they were quarreling about,” Mitchell went ori, "I don’t see the motive for killing her. He may have been cooling to her and going after, some other girl, and she was threating to tell the girl—but that's not motive enough for murder. “All that they have against you now is that you had the opportunity to pick up the chain .and that It was found, this morning, secreted In your dress. It was secreted In a handkerchief whose identifying marks were torn out that had been recently washed and dried without benefit of Ironing, and the implication from that Is that the handkerchief might have been bloodstained. Now, could Deck have passed you the chain at dinner Inthat very handkerchief? Going into the horrid details we have to imagine Deck thrusting Nora into the closet wiping his hands on his hanky, or wiping oft the point af whatever he Jabbed ner with, and tceo promptly washing out the aforesaid hanky and drying it on the radiator- Then he put Nora out the window, snatched his hanky off the radiator, and came down to dinner . . . Yes, it just could have been done. . . . Or he could have done the hanky washing and the consignment of the gems to you lat er in the evening, while ail the bustle was going on.” “I hardly saw him—” “Who's to prove that? W hat I'm examining is the strength of the pos sible case against you. How can you prove that you didn’t know him In 'New York? You should never have let yourself meet him accidentally in that gallery! . . . I'm not saying, mind you, that you couldn’t get a jury to believe that the chain was planted on you, as you say, but you don’t want to get into all that if you can be kept out And the best way to keep you out is to find who did the planting.” I nodded, rather helplessly. , “If the jury believes it was Alan Deck,- they will at least look into the case against you as an accomplice. If the jury is shown that it is not Deck, there isn’t any accomplice case against you.” “Yes, but suppose they do find the m urderer — and he doesn't confess to stealing the diamonds. How am I go ing to prove that I didn’t find the chain in the room when I came up and hide it myself?” “You wouldn’t have the blood-stained hanky to hide it in, silly—if those stains prove to be blood.” This was our chance, he said, to look into the situation. Rapidly, In cisively, he spread that house-party out like a pack of cards abont me. The servants he swept away with one con clusive gesture. He had been going into that all morning; every one was a retainer tried and true, some inherit ed from the elder Kellers, and almost “We All Know the Answer to That — Blood.’’ all of IoDg standing here. Elkins, tha most recent addition, had impeccable references. And every one of them was downstairs after eight o’clock, ex cept the maids busy with the rooms. Then be dealt out the guests. It had to be some one who came along after eight o’clock when both Harriden and Anson had seen Mrs. Harriden on her bed. The thing was to discover In wbat order they had come down to dinner, and he bad been working on th a t he told me. The Kellers had been down first, then Mrs. Crane, and after that there was a confusion of accounts. The W atkins said they had come down and sat out in the lounge behind the long entrance hall before they registered among the others. "Susy W atkins might have some thing against Nora Harriden,” he said. “She was crazy over Deck, once upon a time, but he couldn’t see her for Nora. But that was the moment to put Nora out of business and not now.” He went on to speak of the Ran- clnis. “They’re just landed — he'd hardly have cooked up an Infernal passion for Nora so soon.” “But he knew her abroad,” I told him. “A European past! That needa scrutiny. He might have been the gent in the room with Nora abont sev en-thirty. He might have slipned In before Dan came up, and they had that fracas that you saw.’’ I objected. “But he couldn’t have killed her then—she was seen after, wards at eight.” “He might have popped in again after- Dan had gone down. The Drtn cess admitted they didn’t go down to! gether. She says he was late’’ “It might have been the princess herself,” I said. “She m ightT a™ found out that he’d been In Mrs Har riden’s room and had one of'tho« spasms of jealousy.” 8 “But there were no signs of jeal ousy downstairs.

The Walk of the Two Discouraged Disciples (vv. 13-15). Emmaus was seven and a half miles northwest of Jerusalem. Just why these disciples were walking this way we do not surely know. Perhaps their home was there. Or they were merely walking to seek relief from their stun ning sorrow. If they had believed what Jesus had told them about his death and resurrection, they would have es caped this great disappointm ent Un belief causes many heartaches and dis appointments. The topic of conversa tion was the tragedy of the cross and the resurrection rumors. So little had his teaching about the resurrection im pressed the disciples that the reports which the women brought were as idle tales to them. II. The Unrecognized Companion (yv. 1C-24). 1. Who he was (v. 15). While they reasoned together on the wonderful events of the last few days, Jesus joined them. When he questioned them concerning their sadness they did not recognize him. How often we are so engrossed with our sorrows and ^dis- appointments that we fail to recognize Jesus, even though he is walking by our side. 2. His question (v. 17). Perceiving their sadness and perplexities, he sought to help by calling forth a state ment of their grief. 3. Their answer (v. 18). His ques tions so surprised them that they jumped to the conclusion that he was a stranger in Jerusalem. The con demnation and crucifixion of the great prophet of Nazareth were so recent and notorious that no one who had lived In Jerusalem could be ignorant of them. III. The Scriptures Opened (vv. 25- 31). 1. His rebuke (vv. 25-30). He did not rebuke them for not believing the strange stories Uiat they bad heard, but for Ignorance of and lack of con fidence In the Old Testament Scrip tures. They had only accepted such parts of the Old Testam ent as suited their notions. The very center and heart of the Old Testament Scriptures set forth the death and resurrection of C hrist Ignorance of the Scriptures and unbelief as to the wonders and complete redemption wrought by Christ robs us of many joys and deprives us of power as workers for C hrist 2. Jesus Recognized (vv. 31-35). While sitting at -meat with the dis ciples, their eyes were opened as they saw him bless the bread and distrib ute It to them. We too can see the Lord on such common occasions as eat ing a meal if we have open eyes. In deed,-we ought to see him when eating, buying, selling,'and in our recreations, for he has promised his abiding pres ence. - They were so filled with joy over this revelation of the Savior that they hastened back to Jerusalem to tell the otlier disciples of his resurrection. IV. Jesus Stands In the Midst of the Eleven (w . 36-47). 1. He said, “Peace be unto you” (vv. 36, 37). However, they were terrified and af frighted Sinful man in the presence of a holy God Is 111 at ease. 2. He showed tbem his hands and his feet (w . 38-40). In order to con vince them of his personal identity, he gave them tangible evidence that he was not a mere spirit 3. He ate before them (w . 41-45). 4. He commissioned them to evan gelize the world (w . 46-49). They were to testify concerning his shed blood and resurrection, and on this ground they were to preach repent ance and remission of sins to all na tions. „ 5' Jesus ascends into heaven (w .5U*5u), Having given them the parting mes sage to evangelize the world be as cended into heaven.

T hey in volve, fust and m ost im p o rtan t of all, the steady inroad m ade by th e Ja p anese into the Chinese political and economic structure. T hey em brace, as irell, relations of Soviet E u ssia w ith China and Japan, and th e w hole F a r eastern situation for th a t m atter, and the continued efforts of th e B ritish to obtain for their nationals additional or restored spheres of influence in C hina. Lastly, these international relation- I Ships involve, indeed, directly affect, the open door policy respecting C hinese I trade. The United S tates has consis tently maintained th a t C hina m u st be open to world trade and in th is atti- I tude our nation has had su p p o rt of th e I British and some other w hite nations. I On the other hand, the Jap an ese, w hile adhering to the open door policy on I the surface, have consistently attem p t ed to undermine it directly or by use I of the military. Before the W orld w ar it used to be Ieaid in China th a t th e in tern atio n al [competition there took th e form of di- [plomaey operated through b anks and I railways.

Most author ities on foreign affairs with whom I have talked tell me that there is Ettle hope to prevent Japanese poHtical su premacy in China. They cannot move northward because in that direction they butt their heads against the Soviet Eussian frontier. The Soviet is armed to the teeth on the border of Manchu- kuo, but to the south and In the area known as North China, no present method appears for curtailing Japanese power. Thus, history appears to be repeating Itself. The battle for concession that took place in 1S98 seems about to be revived and undoubtedly the climax to this conflict has been hastened by the American agreement to acquire Chi nese silver. Few authorities are willing to venture a prediction as to where this new pol icy, promulgated by President Boose- velt, will lead us. Some insist that it is in accordance with the attitude the United States has held for nearly forty years insofar as Chinese relations are concerned. Others claim that, since Japan has grown to such importance as a world power, the silver agreement may eventually lead us further into the Far Eastern controversy, so far, in deed, that the questions later to arise may involve national honor—and na tional honor ofttimes is a prelude to war. » * • While we are looking over Japanese activities in the Far East, we ought not to forget that Japs Invade only a year ago, our Philippines congress, under a po litical lash and the pressure of selfish interests, voted the Filipinos their independence. Of course, the Philippine islands are still under our protection and will be so for sev eral years, but it is most interesting to know that already the Japanese have set about the colonization of portions of the Philippine islands. Through the last 20 years, American officials stationed in Manila have kept a watchful eye open to detect any signs of Japanese encroachments. It was not military movements by the Japanese that were feared. It was their well- known capacity for creeping under the edge of the tent and suddenly develop ing into an economic power; Official reports now are reaching Washington which indicate amazingly rapid encroachment by the Japanese upon affairs of the islands. One official document shows that Japanese colo nists have virtually swallowed up one large Philippine valley. By devious ways, legal and illegal, Japanese farm ers have filtered through and have ob tained all of the land that is EUable in the Dava valley. Philippine laws, sponsored by Amer icans before independence was voted, have been designed to check Japanese colonization and the battle against this has gone on unremittingly since the days of the World war when the Tokyo government first exhibited definite abil ity to expand its spheres of influence through colonization methods. It shonld be said, however, that the American officials have been somewhat lax in en forcement of the anti-Japanese laws and the result has been that small eolonies of Japanese were planted In various parts of the islands. Now, it is shown that these colonies have developed Into great numerical and economic strength. They seem to have unlimited credit from somewhere for their operations and in the Dava valley, for example, they actually con trol the price of hemp which is the main, agricultural product cif that section. The Japanese are operating in an other fashion in the PhiUppines. It is a well established fact that when legis lation is being considered by the Phil ippine legislative body, It is confronted with a powerful lobby if it is inimical to Japanese interests. Existence of this lobby is known and recognized and many of the Japanese representatives are fearful of consequences' to their political careers if they go contrary to the lobby’s position. Such penetration as this Into the Philippine economic structure may not be as serious from a world standpoint as the Japanese penetration of North China. Yet, it seems to me that the American government cannot ignore the activity. It may be that Japan has no thought of eventual miUtary and po- Utical supremacy over the Filipinos but the surface indications at this time are those that have always preceded po litical and military subjugation of ter ritories and possessions. It will be recalled,'as well,: that just such a/condition or circumstance as we now see was among the fears ex pressed by those representatives and senators in our congress who opposed Philippine independence. The oppo nents of the Independence bill In con gress dared not openly assert that Ja pan would be a menace to the island independence. To have done so would have meant international compUca tions.

W ITH warmer weather gripping the southland, vacationists feel the appeal of northern climes. Each section of the country has its cool spot. Many east erners are lured to Maine, which is ndted not only for its invigorating sum mer climate but also for its historic background. The name of Maine may or may'not be Frencli; it certainly is not Indian, like Massachusetts or Connecticut. Of the sixteen counties, five recall the mother country, being named for Eng lish shires; five others honor American personages of the colonial or Eevolu- tionary periods, and the remaining six retain the Indian names of the rivers within their borders. As for the other names which have received specific legislative sanction for something over 400 cities, towns, and townships, the larger part are simply descriptive, or repetitions of towns in other New England states. Of the rest, so far as the origin of their names is known, 66 bear Old world names, so that in that delight ful tale by Laura E. Richards, “Nar- cissa, or the Eoad to Rome,” the road side signpost might have pointed to Vienna, Belgrade, or even China, and kept within the jurisdiction of the County of Kennebec; Proprietors and first settlers are known to have given their names to 58 towns; governors, generals, and Presi dents to 16,12, and 6 towns, respective ly; while Indian names, which so plainly tell their own origin, number only 23. An interesting touch of idealism was the selection of such distinctive town names as Harmony, Amity, and Hope; Freedom, Liberty, and Unity, these last three being neighbors; in Waldo county. From the beginning the economic life of Maine was founded on fish, fur, and forest. These three furnished powerful incentives for exploration and the chief rewards for settlement The fisheries of the Gulf of Maine were even an issue between king and parliament early in the Seventeenth century, when the English fishermen won their fight for free fishing along the Maine coast, despite the monopoly granted by James I In his patent to the council of New England. Fisheries a Major Industry. So it came that the earliest sites of permanent settlements were chosen not for mildness of climate, . but by reason of proximity to the cold waters where dwelt the fish that could be converted into a profitable export, without license fee being paid to any patentees of the crown. The fisheries continue a major in dustry. The value of the state’s fish ing products as marketed approxi mates six million dollars, the two larg est items being the plebeian herring and the aristocratic lobster. Along with the ancient business of fishing a place must be given to the popular sport of angling, for which Maine offers unsurpassed inducements, In the lakes and streams and also off shore. Last year 35,000 fishermen and fisb- erivomen from outside the state, and nearly five times that number of resi dents, obtained licenses. The fees re ceived went directly to hatching, plant ing and protecting a new crop of game fish. The state maintains 36 fish hatch eries and rearing stations, and from these last year went 17,000,000 trout, togue. and salmon for stocking the brooks, streams, and lakes. Nearly half of fhese "planted” fish were above legal size, and 10,000 weighed from 3 to 6 pounds each. The policy of protecting wild life Is enforced by‘a corps of 100 game ward ens, who seek to be big brothers to the youth of the state In training them to be good sportsmen. In the severe winter of 1934, airplanes were used to locate deer yards and then cedar trees were cut to feed the starv ing deer confined there by the deep snow. Moose are far from being extinct. They can be shot only with a camera; but deer continue plentiful, 18,933 hay ing been 'killed legally in 1933. More bears are killed in Maine than In any three other states. Grouse, woodcock, and ducks complete the game offering, with'pheasants promised as a future attraction. The Early Explorers. As early as 1605 Capt. George Way- moOth and his companions on the Archangel—many of them world trav elers for that day—were deeply stirred by their first views of a Maine river which the captain named S t George’s (now St. George). A d • exploratory trip inland “toward the great mountains,” the Camden hills, convinced them of the “beauty and goodness” of the land, as recorded by Eosier in his True Eelation of that "most prosperous voyage.” And the author boldly affirmed S t George’s “to be the most rich, beautiful, large and secure harboring river , that the world affordeth.” A few years later (1614), Capt. John Smith was less attracted by this east ern part of the region he named New England. Yet he saw fit to say of this coast, “Those barren lies so furnished with good woods, springs, fruits, fish and foule, that it makes me think though the coast be rocky, and thus affrightable, the valleys, plains and in terior parts may weU (notwithstand ing) be very fertile,” 1 So moderate a statement must have been exceeded Hy Sther testimony of that day, since only a dozen years later another explorer on the Maine coast, Capt. Christopher Levett, a member of the Council of New Eng land, felt it necessary to “debunk” cer tain other travelogues, not preserved for the modern reader. In reporting on his voyage of 1623-4, he remarks: “Nor will the Deare come when they are called, or stand still and looke on a man, until he shute him, not know ing a man from a beast, nor the fish leape into the kettle.” And he continues: “But certainly there is fowle, Deare, and Fish enough for the taking if men be diligent," which equally well describes the Maine of 1623 and 1935. The discovery of this part of the North Atlantic shore is usually cred ited to John Cabot of Bristol, on his second voyage in 1498. The honor of making the first de tailed contributions to accurate geo graphic knowledge of Maine must, however, be shared by - a Frenchman ADd an Englishman: Samuel de Champ lain and the aforementioned Captain Waymouth. In 1605 both Champlain and Way mouth were sailing along the Maine coast. So near did they come to meet ing that in midsummer Champlain heard from an Indian chief on the Kennebec of the presence of an Eng lish ship ten leagues to the eastward, which was undoubtedly Captain Way- mouth’s Archangel. The race was on between the French and the English; and the Maine region was destined to be eventful border land for a century and a half in the contest for control between New Eng land and New France. Settled by Sieur de Monts. The first settlement in Maine was made by Sieur de Monts, who In 1603 had obtained from the king of France a trading concession for Acadia, then defined as extending from Cape Breton island to the latitude of Philadelphia. With Chaplain as his lieutenant, De Monts set sail for the New world fully equipped for his colonization venture. Some three months later, on June 26, 1604,-. a small island in a sheltered river was selected as best adapted for a fortified settlement and trading post. This island was named Saint Croix and was not far above where the river now bearing the same name empties into Passamaquoddy bay. Here, on what is now also known as Dochet island, was erected a group of dwellings in part built of timber brought from France, with a storehouse, dining hall, kitchen, and blacksmith shop. Gardens were laid out, all carefully planned by Champlain. The site of this earliest but short lived settlement In Maine, which ante dated Jamestown, Quebec, and Ply mouth, was not wholly obliterated. Before the Pilgrims. In a speech in congress 100 yehrs after statehood was granted to Maine, Representative Robert Luce of Massa chusetts, himself Maine born, remarked that Maine might more fittingly be called the older sister of Massachu setts than her daughter. And the Rec ords of early settlement and trade well bear out this contention. \ On Capt. John Smith’s map of New England of 1614, for example, the site which Is now York, was named Bos ton, thus locating in Maine, so far as maps go, the first New World Boston —and all this before the Pilgrims even landed! When the Pilgrims set foot on Ply. mouth Bock, not a few EngUshmen had already been sojourning on the Maine coast and even had wintered there. . The welcome of the Indian sachem Samoset was In the Pilgrims’ own tongue, learned from the fisher-' men on the Maine coast. Indeed, thir teen years before, in 1607, the Pop ham colonists built a fort in “that northern colony” which mounted 12 pieces of ordnance. They also erect ed a church and launched a 30-ton. vessel—a fine record of English piety and'preparedness. > 4 1 1 A o u n d When making cinnamon toast cut bananas In thin sUces, arrange on toast, sprinkle with sugar and cin namon and brown under the broiler. • • ' * If cherries or berries are rolled In flour before putting them into the pie crust the juice will be thickened and WiU not run out. • * * Squeeze into a tumbler the juice of half a lemon and fill with grape juice.

The well advertised Oueen Mary, looking very big moving up to her New Tork dock, repre sented In reality the quintessence of compressed power. On the way over she developed one hundred and sixty thousand horse, power. That number ot horses hitched In pairs, one ahead of the other, would make a “team" more than two hun dred and fifty miles long. Still more re- m arkable power compression is that of the flying en gine, which compresses the power of a 1,000-pound horse into less than three pounds of metal. A rlh n r B risbane The government offered for sale sis hundred millions of 2% per cent bonds, four hundred millions of 1% per cent notes. The whole issue is oversub scribed. It is a comfort for those that have money and want no risk to invest even fct low Interest rates, free of income tax payments. Such an investment is much simpler than running the risk of a business enterprise with pay rolls and jobs at tached. To tax heavily the man who uses his money and brains to give work to oth ers, and free from taxation those that buy bonds and take their ease, is a brand-new kind of democracy. Hen of middle age and older may learn from Civil war veterans in the Memorial day parade, some ninety and some ninety-three; one, who led New York city’s G. A. R. procession, past ninety-six years of age. AU the old soldiers are very thin men, averaging in weigljt less than 140 pounds. Had they been fat they would be In the grave, not in any parade. General Pershing cut a big birthday cake with a general's sword, Mrs. Boosevelt looking on,, and on Memorial day be warned America against anoth er war. To believe that this country can be dragged into a war without a repeti tion of our big war folly is not compli mentary to those in charge. No for eign nation would force war on the TTnited States, and thus put United States resources, and any Rgiiting qual ities that Americans may possess, on the side of that foreign nation’s en emies. The unfortunate congressman, Zion- check, from the Northwest, is locked up in Washington, his sanity to be in vestigated, after he visited the White House with a present of empty beer bottles for the President. The unfortunate congressman’s an tics are not important in themselves, but you wonder wbat qualities were seen in him by the voters. The United States Supreme court declared unconstitutional a New York state law that would permit New York to fix a minimum wage for women and children. Chief Justice Hughes, who did not agree with the majority opinion, wrote: “I find nothing in the federal Constitu tion which denies to the state the power to protect women from being ex ploited by over-reaching employers.” Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., who ought to know about American Industry, says enormous building operations are need ed in the United States to replace out- of-date equipment, and that the door is wide open for “plenty of jobs and then more jobs.” American cotton growers fighting the boll weevil will sympathize with Argen tine growers, attacked by vast swarms of devouring locusts, far worse than any weevil. The Argentine ministry of agriculture announces 10,000 tons of cotton devoured, 60,000 acres invaded. Farmers fight the locusts by erecting walls of sheet iron or digging ditches, into which the locusts swarm, to be sprayed with gasoline and burned. Tons of the pests are thus destroyed.

DEATH, sudden and unexpected, came to Joseph Wellington Byrns, speaker of the house of representa tives, and put an end to a notable ca reer. The veteran Ten- nessee congressman suffered a heart at tack, followed by a cerebral hemorrhage, and passed away with in a few hours in his apartment in the May flower hotel, Washing ton. For 27 years Mr. Byrns had represented the “Hermitage dis trict” of Tennessee in the house, and he was elected speaker when fourth congress convened In January, 1935. He was a master of parliamen tary strategy and so fair-minded a presiding officer that all, even his po litical opponents, praised and admired him. Before becoming speaker he served long years on the appropria tions committee, as member and chair man, and he also was leader of the Democratic majority and chairman of the Democratic congressional campaign committee. • Grief for Mr. Byrns’ death was gen eral and sincere In Washington official dom. “I am shocked beyond all imagi nation,” said Representative Bertrand H. Snell of New York, the minority leader. "It Is a terrible thing. It is an almost irreparable loss.” Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Ar kansas,'the majority leader, after ex pressing his own sense of loss, added: “His work during the session lias been viery difficult and trying. He was a great speaker.” President Roosevelt in a statement from the White House expressed well the high esteem in which Mr. Byrns was held. Said he: “Fearless, Incorruptible, unselfish with a high sense of justice, wise in counsel, broad of vision, calm In ad versity, and modest in victory, be served his state’ and the nation with fidelity, honor, and great usefulness. I - personally mourn the passing; of. a steadfast friend of many years/1 . Impressive funeral .services were held In the chamber of the boose, the Presi dent, members of the cabinet and nu- merous diplomats being present in ad dition to all members of congress. The body was then taken to Nashville, Tenn., for burial, and Ur. Roosevelt ac companied the special congressional committee there. The house elected William B. Bank- bead of Alabama speaker for the re mainder of the session. The death of Speaker Byrns followed closely that of another well-known congressman, A. Piatt Andrew of Has- sachusetls, a Republican. He died of influenza. at bis home in Gloucester at the age of sixty-three. Mr. Andrew, who taught economics at Barvard more than thirty years ago, was director of the mint for a few months under Pres ident Taft and then was assistant sec retary of the treasury. He was elected to congress in 1921, and supported much of President Roosevelt’s early legislation. MISS CLARA DUTTON NOYES, sixty-six, director of the Ameri can Red Cross nursing service, died In Washington a few minutes after she was stricken while driving to work In her car. Miss Noyes was assistant di rector of the American Red Cross nursing service during the World war. She also had been superintendent of nurses at the Bellevue and allied hos pitals In New York. Cyrus Hall McCormick, whose father developed the farm reaper and who himself helped organize the Interna tional Harvester company and was Its president for 33 years, died at his home in Lake Forest, 111., at the age of sev- enty-seven years. He was noted as a progressive business man, liberal with bis employees and always interested actively in -public welfare movements.

Many of the Londoners carried Ethiopian flags or scarlet banners reading “Wel come to the Emperor.” With the white sympathizers were many African chiefs in native robes, Somalis, ne groes, Hindus, Chinese, and colored people from all parts of the world. There was an outburst of wild cheer ing when Selassie, bareheaded and wearing a long black cape, stepped from his private sleeping car and was greeted by many notables, Including 0. C. Harvey, private secretary of An thony Eden, British foreign secretary. Harvey was the lone representative of. the British government JUST as the “popular front” In Franca was taking over the government the country was distracted by strikes that spread rapidly to almost all industrial centers and Involved all manner of trades. The workers demanded higher wages, a 40-hour week and a closed shop, and they went out by the bun< dred thousand though they knew thej were causing great embarrassment to their own leaders. In many cases the strikers took possession of the closed plants. In Spain the syndicalists tied up various industries by strikes that in volved about 250,000 workers and that were marked by several murders and other outrages. Augusto Barcia, min ister of state, said the government planned to outlaw the syndicalists If they persisted In disobeying orders from the. ministries of labor and the interior. Alfred W att Viceroy Badoglio J H. THOMAS, until recently BrIt- • Ish colonial secretary, was found responsible by a special government tribunal for the leak In budget se crets which enabled some of his friends to profit largely through insurance against tax raises. Final disposition of the case was left to tbe house of commons. Thomas, once* an engine-, wiper and later' a po >erf’ul figure inj organized labor and politics, termed the tribune’s verdict “cruel.” He said: “My own conscience is clear. I repeat wbat I previously stated upon oath: that I made no disclosures of budget secrets to anybody.” D URAL housewives from many conn- tries began their third triennial conference In Washington with Mrs, of Canada presiding.

Roosevelt, wife of the President, ex tended greetings to the visitors, but be yond that there were no set speeches and Mrs. Alfred nttle formality. In- W att stead, tbe farm wives held "exchange of experience” ses sions, viewed elaborate exhibits ot rural needlework and crafts of organ ized countrywomen of the participat in g nations, and attended “open houses" held by all branches of the federal government In which coun trywomen are particularly interested. In exchanging experiences the women learned, among other things, that: English groups have stimulated a remunerative revival of quilting to supplement the family Income.

N INE of the richest unions In the having more than a million members, probably will be suspended soon by the federation's executive council, and at the next convention they will be expelled if tbe council can com mand the necessary two-thirds ma jority. Thus will come to a crisis the internecine contest between the craft unionists led by President Wil liam Green and the industrial onion- s Ista who follow John L.

A serious problem is in the making for the federal government in liqui dation of the loans granted by the Home Owners Loan Corporation to more than a million home owners to prevent mortgage foreclosures. Latest figures reveal that persons who received the loans are in arrears a total of' $88,000,000 and defaults are accumulating at a rate that leads to estimates that the government ul timately will be unable to collect $750,000,000 of the $3,055,215,250 loans. JohnH . Fahey, chairman of the corporation, is enforcing a program of foreclosure in an attempt to dis courage delinquencies, but he has be. gun proceedings only in 10,485 cases out of 1,086,586 mortgages which were rewritten. Many states have foreclosure laws which prohibit evic tion of occupants for 18 months after proceedings are begun.

The ,direct competion of govern ment in business uses the money of all the people to destroy the proper ty of a part of the people.” When a Chief Executive finds unconstitutional concentration of power in himself, he should exer cise his constitutional powers to re commend that Congress take back authority.” The new deal depends on book worms for practical experience and on hookworms for energy ” “ This is the only administration in our history which has deliberate Iy impaired private credit, destroy* ed confidence and intimidated capi tal.” “ At no time has the jiew deal been frank enoiigh to reveal its real purpose by submitting a . proposal for a constitution amendment:*' DuHag- the-tw’elvt^ygars .df'"fee-' publican administration taxes were reduced five times.” . “ Today the wage earner is work ing at least one' day a week solely to pay the- cost of government. ’ ’ Stray Pups. This from the Gastonia Gazette: “ Some of these days, soon per haps.G astonia is going to have a mad dog scare, several people will be bitten in a day by a rabid canine and then the city fathers will send c jt men to capture or shoot stray dogs. Wouldn’t it be far better to lock the stable door before the horse is stolen? We have ample laws to protect the public against unleashed dogs, but the city does nothing about it.” The Gazette Is speaking for Gas tonia, of course, but what it says will apply to any other community in.the s' ate. We have laws to cover about every fault under the sun. but they are allowed to remain unenforced, to be invoked only when emergsncy arises. We have signal lights at street intersections, ..but these are ignored every day in the week; we have laws against skating on the street, but there is a letup in this infraction only when some child has been maimed by an accident. Statesville, too, has ordinances against unleashed dogs, yet they are running the streets in droves until the inevitable mad dog scare comes to drive them to the ground Not that our officers are to be censored for it: it is because of our own willful way of observing the law only when it suits us. Any of us would raise a merry ruckus if our own beloved Rover found himself in the hands oi the law. Statutes are for the other fellows pup, and not for our own harmless- Wimpey, and the officer who-would dare affront the dog. and his family.would find us ranting to get him off the force. But the mad dog scare will take care of all that—and it won’t be long now. -^-Statesville Daily.

The Worker Pays. If you think the so called, rich pay all the taxes, and the rest pf us receive all the bounty ot gov ernment for nothing/ here are some facts that will disillusion you. Every dollar spent by ihe Feder al government in the last fiscal year was derived as follows: Seven cent from ,personal income taxes;-eight cents from cotporation taxes; six cent from • liquor taxes; six cents'from tobacco taxes; seven cents from processing taxes; five cents from excise taxes; five cents from customs duties; three cents from estate and gift taxes; four cents from all other forms of taxes Practically every one of those taxes is, in effect; a sales tax. Each represents a part of the cost ofLthe things we buy. Each one, with few and unimportant -excep tions, must be and is passed on to the. consumer. And that isn’t the worst o f; it. The lotal of the taxes listed above comes to just 51 cents, leaving 49 for. i That forty nine cents was Ob tained by. the borrowing—and when the-day of reckoning-comes, It will be the worker and the man of aver age means who -will-have: to- foot; practically aU of the gagantic.bll],.- These are days when the most er ratic social customs, prevail in ‘ thr- lives of our church people, Witnese the recent nationwide: debacle of bridge playing sponsored by twr: fcoted. exponents of the. game.

Isbridge the-innocent game its exponents would have us believe it to be, or is it one of the most dead ly and destructive forces against thi spiritual life of our people with which the church has to deal?

" • • - f ‘My dear Sir and Bro: In an ef fort to correct a purely local situa tion, among our young people, and not for publication will you kindly answer the following questions. 1. Do you'think that Church- and- Sunday-school officers and teachers should play bridge?” 2. -'Do you think that any. Chris tian isexhibiting the spirit of Christ and. setting the proper example'^wiwr ;?• effect•'itif~xou>S^66hest opifiion- wil 1-the Bridgeplaying habif have on the Christian’s life, influence usefulness and happiness?” ■ “Kindly record your .observation in the space below.” From one of our seminary presi dents: "I would, advise Christian, voung people very earnestly not to play bridge ” From another college president: “I think the spirit of the New Testa ment is against any form of worldli ness and I have al ways counted card playing as worldly amusement.” From one of the most lovable of our college profossors: “ I always ad vise my young people to avoid any kind of game that tends to develop the gambling habit, and bridge cer tainly has that tendency. . Many who have the bridge habit are already gamblers.” From a former president of the Baptist State Convention: "These (bridge players) have always caused me considerable anxiety, because it seems to fascinate and enslave- some people to the exclusion of everything else.” This pastor wrote a two-page letter. From a Mobile pastor: “Let me say. that I do all. I can to discourage bridge playing among .my young people.” ■From a Birmingham paBtor: “I am forced to say that it is absolutely wropg for a Christian to play bridge for two. reasons: First, because of the influence which the habit has upon himself; and second, because of the influence which it has upon oth ers. It will cause the Christian to be retired from his prayer habit, his Bible reading habit, and his church- going habit.” Two typewritten pag es to this letter. From another pastor, and ex-presi. dent of BaptistState Convention1'who answers both first and second. ques- t’ons with an emphatic "No” and the third on what effect will the. hab it bave on the Christian’s life, .says, “It deadens its fervor.” One of the greatest of our pastor leaders in North Alabama answers the first two questions .“No,” and; says of the third: " I t paralizes their spiritual lives, destroys their influ ence, mars their Uj^fulness,,£nd Ies- 8eift'their happiness as children of our Heavenly Fatheir. Mjrf heaviest indictment against i>ridg:e placers is that it incapacitates them as soul winners. I have, yet to find a bridge Dlayer who-can be counted oh to win souls for the Master.’- ” From. a presiding elder of the Uetbodist Ghurcb who is one of: the writer’s best friends: My answer to; questions one and two * is positively' No. I never knew one who had an en- h’lsiasm for bridge w.ho had a- pas-' •tion for souls. I never knpw a bridge =ilaver who was sent for bv one whoi was in trouble and needed prayer)’’ From .one of our greatest, - a evangelists, a man who has won' thousands to Christ: "By no means? should any Christian play bridge;' ‘ have never known a bridge player' «ho'was a soul winner. Card play* ig wounds or kills spiritually and destroys one’s .Christian influence. The card tabl: in tbe home is the^ kindergarten of the gambling hell” From one of our pastor-leaders tn our Capital City. -To the first and second questions I would answer Nb. To- the third, it is my conclusion ^ from observation, that .bridge play- ing' cburcli members, - wi bout ex ception. are of little value to tbeir churches. There is something about' this indulgence, aB innocent aB /it may seem, that estranges an indivi dual from the vital life of the church and renders him or-her pow erless in spiritual things.” Maybe We’ll Learn Some Time. .

Dan H arriden leaves the table, and M ltcliell explains he has gone up to see how his w ife’s headache is. H e retu rn s shortly. Deck, saying he m ust put in a call, leaves. Upon his return, he begs Leila to secretly ta k e a m es sage to N ora “to tak e no steps until I see you.” Leila consents. Leila finds the H arriden room s em pty and so in form s Deck. Com ing out she passes Letty. H arriden asks Princess K ancini to run up and see his w ife. The prin cess reports the absence of Nora. H ar- riden adm its th a t he had a row , and believes she is spitefully hiding. L etty tells of seeing Leila come from the room. Leila accuses H arriden of having stru ck his wife. This H arriden denies. From the H arridens’ w indow L eila sees w hat proves to be N ora's lifeless body. A g h a stly head w ound caused death.

Deck ex p lains he w as intoxicated and does not rem em ber. T hat n ight L eila aw akes w ith the im pression of som e one being in her room and then hears steps in th e hall. Believing she w as m istaken, she does not rep o rt it. L ater D onahey sends for Leila. She identifies th e dress he has as hers. Pinned to it is a hand kerchief containing th e m issing chain.

So think the Kellers. But people were drifting about so, that .It’s easy to overlook some one in the room. . . . I was nest to the last. Or Deck was, we differ there. Letty Van Alstyn was the last. Now what about Letty?” “Well, what about her?” I echoed. “She's cuckoo over Harriden,” be told me. "Harriden?” “Yep. She might have dropped In to see Nora and Nora twitted her about something—Nora knew all about Letty’s pash for Dan, and Letty got in a rage and caught up something that was handy. ...” I flung out, “But a girl couldn’t have killed her—like' that—” “Somebody killed her—like th a t” “And dragged her, first to a closet, then to a window—” “You can do a lot when you have to. Letty went up right after dinner,” he pointed out. “She wouldn’t give a hoot In Hades what happened to any one so she got clear.

I had a horrid‘ thought . . . What was his own share In this Involve! affair? At what time had he, him self, come down to dinner? About the -same time as Deck. Just before Letty Van Alstyn. . He had never liked Nora Harriden; he had admitted It with a frankness meant, perhaps, to disarm suspicion. My look twisted away from his but not quickly enough. He rose, laugh ing at me with a chiding note of rail lery. “Shall we go see If my hankies match?” I looked again and laughed with him; I felt horribly ashamed of my self. CHAPTER V II Clancy had returned and his report Kas a curious''one. There had been three separate finds of handkerchiefs exactly similar to that stained and crumpled piece of linen In Donahey’s band; they had been found among the possessions of Harriden, and 01’ Kel ler and of Deck. Donahey sat glowering over that bit of news. Mitchell urged the immediate exanK inatlon of the handkerchief and Dona hey agreed, sending Clancy up with it to the picture gallery. But before I could'join him with my case of mate rials I had to be subjected to a search both of my belongings and of my per son. I was told that this was a rou tine matter that everyone was un dergoing, in the effort to discover the missing pendant. After having seen that glittering chain brought out of the hanky In side my dress I was really afraid they’d conjure' the famous pendant out of my powder box or the toe of a slipper. That demon thief might have tucked it anywhere. .I breathed a good deal easier when the ordeal was over. I was glad to be in the gallery again, where Clancy was waiting beside a card table that Elkins had set up. I was grateful to have the work on the handkerchief, grateful to Mitchell for trying to range me on the side of the investigators. There were three people, I thought, on whom suspicion might justifiably rest; there were the Prince and Prin cess Rancini and Letty Van Alstyn, but there was not a scrap of evidence against any of them. No, there were four. I had to be honest with myself; I couldn’t pretend. There was Alan Deck. And against him was all the evidence they had. I wanted to see Deck. I wanted to talk with him. Not here, with Clancy at hand—yes, here, even though we could say nothing that mattered. If I could see him again, I thought I could find an answer to that worrying un certainty In me. Tlie testing was a difficult business. The handkerchief had been so thor oughly washed that I began to de spair of uncertainty in my experi ments. Not about the rust m arks; those I did make sure of. Then, in one of the corners, close under the fold of the hemstitched hem, I found traces of stain that yielded a blood reaction. “That’s blood,1' I said. In the intervals of waiting and dry ing I walked up and down the gallery. I found myself wishing to get at the records of these pictures to begin the real work for which I had come. For a few moments I forgot the night mare of that murder. I grinned at a Magdalen, attributed to Titian, analo gous to the one at Naples, and then I was caught by a lovely little Virgin whose suppliant, adoring curves and pure, poignant ecstasy made me yearn to prove her the creation of Angelico that she was labeled. As my mind bit on these familiar realities my nerves steadied, and when I went down with the policeman to make my report I was feeling more like myself. Alan Deck was with Moiity Mitchell, and when he saw me he came forward quickly, with a “Good morning, accom plice!” in his mocking way. Monty said, “Find anything?” And they both came with me while I had my moment of Importance, making my report to Donahey. I used all the words and technical terms that I thought he would not know but the main facts were clear— blood in one corner, and five marks of ru st Donahey nodded, as If he had guessed it all the time, and I moved away with Deck. Mitchell stayed with the inspector: I remember seeing him turn the handkerchief about very slow ly In his hands. Deck said thoughtfully, “That blood rather disposes of the theory that the diamonds might have been put there by some one who just picked them up —afterwards.” And at my assent he said, “Well, that’s that!” In a hard voice. Grant now appeared before us, an nouncing that a buffet luncheon was being served In the dining-room. As I went to wash my stained fingers I saw Miss Van Alstyn In the hall ahead of me. As she paused at her door, opposite that closed door behind which Nora Harriden was lying, I saw the maid, Anson, stop her, holding something in her hand. “Yes, I threw it away,” I heard Miss Van Alstyn say. “It’s broken—throw it out.” “It’s so pretty,” Anson murmured. “If you don’t mind my keeping it—” “As you Uke,” said Miss Van Al styn indifferently and disappeared Into her room. Out of an impulse of friendliness for that pretty Anson I turned and asked her what she had. “It’s for the hair, miss, only the comb is broken,” she told me. “Maybe I could get another fixed on. It’s so pretty—” It was pretty — a sharp - pointed crescent about four or five inches long, glittering with bright brown stones. The comb, at right angles to the cres cent had been broken sharply off. I picked it up; It seemed a little large and too heavy for anywhere except the back of the head, above a froth of curls. It was of some solid brown metal and I thought aDotlier comb could easily be soldered on. “It’s worth It,” I told Anson, and she said she had been afraid to carry It away without asking, for fear It had fallen In the basket by. mistake. I was reflecting that costume jew elry, to Miss Van Alstyp, was not worth repairing, and then, staring at those hard, pointed ends, that solid metal— If a woman had a thing like’ this In her hands . . . If she struck out with it, furiously. . . . “When did you find this, Anson?*' Last night she told me. When she had been arranging the room for the night. -Were toe broken pieces of .the comb In the basket too,” “I did see some broken pieces. But they went with the trash. They couldn’t have been fixed.” “With the trash? Where did the trash go?” “Why, in the incinerator, Miss,” she answered, eyes widening at my ques tions. “And was the incinerator going?’ “Last night, miss? I couldn’t say. I know it hasn’t been going this morn ing for that policeman gave orders not to have anything burned.” I turned the crescent about. No sign of a blood film over any of Its bright ness—but blood could be superficially washed off in running water. A blow with It, a jab with one of those vi ciously pointed ends, would have bro ken off the comb. . . . She might not have thought to wash off the pieces of the comb. . . . In imagination I saw Letty Van Al styn snatching this crescent from her hair, striking out recklessly. . . . Anson was staring at m e; I hand ed it back to her, saying something about my interest In imitations to ex cuse my absorption In It . . . Letty Van Alstyn came out of her room, passing down to luncheon, and In the vague smile she swept over us I felt a sharpening of curiosity. Scrubbing my stained fingers, brush ing out my hair, I tried to fit the pieces, together in this pattern. . . . Suppose Letty were guilty—how about that scene at the window? Well,’that couljl have had nothing to'do with the actual murder—it might have been Deck, or Rancinl or Harriden for all his denials. . . . Suppose it had been Harriden. Sup pose he had gone on down to din ner, and Nora had been in bed, re sentful, hysterical, when Letty had dropped in, on her way down. Nora might have surmised that Letty had ,H f'' The Prince Rancini Walked By. been stirring up Dan’s jealousy, so there was every reason for a scene between them. A terrific scene, In which Letty, In blind rage or In self protection had struck out with the first thing at hand. . . . I had to imagine her picking up one of Dan’s handkerchiefs to wipe off the blood . . . thrusting Nora into the closet . . . waiting till she was sure the rest were down at dinner, then putting her out the window. Perhaps the blood-stained handkerchief had been a crumpled ball In Letty’s brown bag and after dinner she bad gone up to wash It out—that was when she ha-i met me In the hall, outside Mrs. Har- riden’s door. Perhaps the yellow diamonds had been In Letty’s brown bag, too. And late that night—or rather early In the morning—she had torn the initials out of the dried handkerchief and stolen up to my room. The pieces fitted together, I thought excitedly. But there was nothing in the world to sustain th'at wild sus picion but my vivid imagination—noth ing unless there should be blood upon the pieces of broken comb in the In cinerator. I fairly raced down, then, to the buffet luncheon,'t eager to pour this out to Mitchell. Mitchell was busily filling a plate so I went over to him. His eyes looked darker and more alert than ever; bis black hair, which began quite fat back on his forehead was standing up in an excited crest We sat down at a cor ner of the table—he hated eating In his lap, he declared—and under my breath I poured out my conjecturlngs. Promptly he dashed my hopes. “In cinerator been going for an hour. Don ahey let them start it up when he saw there weren’t any rags there—just trash and garbage. Did you keep the crescent?” ' When I said I hadn’t, he advised me to get it and test it for blood. But he seemed a little detached. He even said, “I think you’re barking up the wrong tree.” “It was your tree,” I told him In dignantly. “You thought she could be a guilty soul.” “Oh, a possibility—yes. But some how—” He left It in dubiety. We went on, talking. I remember saying about the inquest, “Why don’t they have It today and get it over with?” And he said that Donahey wanted to do more work on the case, wanted enough for an indictment, if possible. And he said, “By keeping people herded up like this, in an isola tion camp, he can induce .a state of nerves that may cause a breakdown. Anything may develop at any moment' That’s psychology.” After luncheon be had me get my Jiat and coat and, with Donahey1* per mission, he took me outdoors and marched me up and down the land scaped road In front of the- house where cool wind and sunshine had their tonic effect The shore was being patrolled by guards to keep reporters and curiosity seekers -from landing, and I had p feeling of being under m artial law io some internment camp. Other members of the house-party were out taking exercise, too; th« Prince E andni walked by, very sm art ly turned out wlth'lspats and a cane. After we had pnssed each other twice he turned, smiling, to ask permission to join us. Without his wife’s presence he ex panded into gaiety; he seemed to me a big, light-hearted pleasure-loving fellow, with a Continental’s casual cynicism about life and emotional re sponsiveness to beauty. He stopped us to show us a particularly lovely contrast of light and dark blue in the sea, pointing with his stick, and he told us of his swimming feats at Ca pri and his skiing records at S t Mo ritz and of his shooting triumphs In Scotland. For a ' time I was amused at this distraction; no one could have im agined that we three people, prome nading up and down those stately ave nues, chatting of tournaments were three members of an isolated house hold darkened by death and shadowed by suspicion. Mitchell said very little — he had small chance against the prince ex cept through Interruptions. But he created a diversion by suddenly trip ping over a root and emitting a suc cession of fervent damns as he hopped about distressfully. ‘‘It’s this confounded ankle—strained It a year ago. iMay I borrow your stick?” he asked the prince. I thought Sancini passed it over rather reluctantly. At the time I Im agined he fancied it as part of hia own costuming. Mitchell leaned on It as he walked along with us, refusing to return to the house. “Be all right in a second." Then Rancini began telling about his palace In Rome that fie was doing, over and about his efforts to collect the tapestries and furniture that he had previously sold. I gathered that he was doing all this with his wife’s money. It was when we returned to tha house, and Mitchell was passing back the cane, declaring himself complete ly recovered, that he made a casual* sounding observation. “This is one of those trick things, isn’t it, prince? Isn’t there a spring I feel here—?” “But yes,” said Rancinl, without the slightest hesitation. “You press this— please take your hands away. I do it—I know this thing. So—like th a t And out comes this little toy.” W hat came out was the point of. a substantial looking knife, quite a stab bing tool. “Another press and a bayo net,” said Rancinl, laughing. ‘Quite a toy,” Mitchell commented, eyeing it quizzically. ‘And not such a toy at that. Ia Rome now, the streets are safe, but In Paris, when one is late—in the quarters of a little milliner, perhaps—* ‘With a jealous lover around the corner,” Monty Mitchell suggested. ‘Si, si!” Rancini laughed, then un der his breath to me he murmured In swift Italian, “When the heart Is empty one must pass the hours,” and I smiled up at his smile and asked to see the knife again. \ I looked hard at it. The sharp, strong point seemed bright unstained. S T A R I D U S T I .M .o v ie • R a d i o * Myrna Loy CH A PTER V III Mitchell said very naturally, “A us» f ul thing, th a t! A pity Nora Harriden didn’t have one at hand when that fel low set on her.” Not a quiver of Rancini’s face, as far as I could see. Perhaps the fact that there wasn’t a quiver, that his voice was blandly expressionless meant something. Smoothly he agreed, “It might have- made all the difference.” . We. were back in the house again, Its walls shut upon us, closing us in to tension and uncertainty and the strain of our own thoughts. Mitchell went off to Donahey, com-! Ing back just for a moment to report that no trace of the pendant had been found. When I went to Anson to get the crescent, with a IitUe made-up speech about my interest in imitation stones, she told me that Miss Van Alstyn had asked for it back, giving her instead a star of brilliants. She was immensely pleased and I immensely puzzled. Letty Van Alstyn had been IndifTer- ence Itself before me as to the fate of that broken ornament. Why the sud den, surreptitious change? 1 tried on the impulse, to find her but she w^sn? in her room; my maid at last located her in the KeUer sitting-room^ t t h Mrs. Crane and the two KeUers ^ ay mg at bridge. p y “I don’t think they liked my bareine in on them, and Miss Van looked fraJJMy wondering w heni asked for the crescent Yes I h f k J taken it back, she told me. ’ w reverting to the cards- ?es thought she’d get herself rather and so didn’t want a d J , one Certainly I could look a t U l f l I f h 0ut It was somewhere in Ver rn Shedf supposed vaguely - I nJ f °om’ sh« to find it."

On the money question the committee, in the end, isfrained from any men tion of gold, but after the adoption of the platform and before the nomi nation Governor Landon very definite ly read gold into his interpretation of the platform. After its long hours of labor the res olutions committee brought to the con vention a platform on which all mem bers of the committee had agreed, thus precluding any possibility of a fight on the floor of the convention, and which, the delegates unanimously accepted. Condemns the New Deal. Quite naturally the platform con demns the present administration for practically everything it has done. It charges that the administration has dishonored American traditions; the usurpation by the President of the pow ers of congress; the violation of the rights and liberties of American citi zens ; the flaunting of the integrity and authority of the Supreme court; the passage of laws contrary to the Con stitution; repudiation of national ob ligations; the creation of a vast num ber of new offices, and the filling of these with political favorites, setting up a centralized bureaucracy; the mak- c o l : frank knox ing of secret tariff agreements that have flooded American markets with foreign products; it has appealed to passion and class prejudice, and many other things that are viewed with alarm. Party Pledges. The first pledge in the platform promises to maintain the American system of government; to preserve the American system of free enterprise, private competition and equality of op portunity. On the subject of relief it proposes the return of responsibility to non-po litical local organizations, with federal grants to the states and territories so long as the need is urgent The platform condemns the present old age and unemployment insurance laws and promises to replace these with laws that are workable, and that will provide for all the adult popula tion. On the subject of agriculture the platform charges the New Deal with taking to itself the Republican prin ciple of soil conservation and the re tirement of sub-marginal lands, and ap proves of these things. It proposes to foster and protect the family type of farm, and to promote policies that will bring about an adjustment of agricul ture to meet the needs of domestic and foreign markets. It proposes to fa cilitate productlon_ and increased con sumption on a bas'is of abundance in stead of scarcity, and proposes several definite means of doing th at Other subjects covered In the plat form relate to re-employment, labor, tariff, monopolies, civil service, gov ernment finance including a stopping ,f government waste and balancing Iv L buI aet' moneT and banking, am? other things. * he real hiShlights of the convention Came on Wednesday and Thursday P1Snm- 0n Wednesday night former esment Herbert Hoover addressed SSLSfenibw mUltttude. Every seat was filled, every foot of standing space . f ccupied. The tremendous demon* stration that greeted Mr. Hoover a* he stepped to the front of the plat- Ttrm- a demonstration that neither Chairman Snel! nor the former presi dent could stop for more than 30 min- utes, and another lasting for nearly th bour ,at the close of his address, illustrated the place the °rmer President has In the hearts of tne Kepubhcans of America. He deliv ered a terrific arraignment of the New Deal, and aroused his audience to a very high pitch of enthusiasm. He did no in any way indicate any prefer ence as to the party candidate, or any; desire to influence the delibera tions of the convention. Hoover Gets Oration. Mr. Hoover arrived at Cleveland Wednesday morning and was met at the station by a vast multitude of peo- pie who gave him a tremendous recep- tion. AU through the afternoon thou sands crowded the reception lines for the privilege of a handshake. It all marked Herbert Hoover as the idol of the Republicans of the nation. With the nomination of Governor Landon on Thursday night Mr. Hoover ceased to be the titular head of the party, but he retains the affections of the mem bers of the party. On Thursday the convention met twice and immediately adjourned while awaiting the report of the resolutions committee. It was not until nine o’clock in the evening when that report was received, was read and immediately unanimously approved without a roll call. The bombshell of the convention, and there is usually at least one, came just after the adoption of the plat form, and with the introduction of John Hamilton who nominated Gov ernor Landon. Mr. Hamilton had just received a telegram from Governor Landon, and he read it In that tele gram Governor Landon gave his inter pretation of some of the planks of the platform. The platform makers, out of consideration for Senator Borah, had carefully refrained from any men tion of gold In the money plank. Gov ernor Landon said: ‘‘The convention advocates a sound currency . . . That, as I view it, is a currency expressed In terms of gold, and convertible into gold.” Any mention of gold was the one thing Senator Borah had strenuously opposed, and there it was definitely read into the platform if the conven tion nominated Governor Landon, and a few minutes later that is just what it did without a roll call and with one mighty and prolonged shout of ap proval. Governor Landon had done the thing the resolutions committee was afraid to do. In the same telegram he gave his in terpretation of other planks in the platform. If necessary, he proposed a constitutional amendment so the states might legislate for minimum wages and maximum hours for women. Another statement referred to the merit system In which he pledged himself, if elected, the inclusion of every position in the administrative service below the rank of assistant secretaries including the entire Post Office department Then came the nomination for Pres ident. Board Bandwagon. Through a week preceeding the open ing of the convention the managers of the Landon, Knox, Borah, Vanden- berg and Dickinson campaigns had been tireless in their solicitation of support for their candidates. There had been'an effort made to combine the support of the various candidates against Landon, whose manager was claiming a nomination on the first bal lot. On Thursday afternoon every can didate climbed into the Landon band wagon, released their delegates, rec ommended that they vote for Gover nor Landon, and following the nomi nating speech of John Hamilton, the Landon manager, Senator Vandenberg, Senator Dickinson, Colonel Knox, each came to the platform to second the nomination of the governor of Kansas. There was no roll call. Governor Landon was nominated by a shout that was heard throughout the nation. The Republican party was unanimous In its choice of a candidate for Presi dent of the United States. The demonstration that had followed the first mention of Governor Landon’s name by John Hamilton lasted for more than half an hour. With the exception of a selection of a Vice Presidential candidate the show was over In the early hours of Friday morning. While the delegates and the audience did not know It, the conven tion had adjourned to meet again at ten o’clock Friday. Shortly after that time a roll call of the states began for the naming of Vice Presidential candi dates As usual they were numerous, more because it gave delegates an op portunity to make a speech before the convention than because they repre sented ; any hope of a nomination. Michigan was strong for Senator Van denberg, but the senator again an nounced, as he had done twice before, that he would not accept such a nomi nation, while at the same time express ing his determination to work for the success of the ticket.' In the end, most of those named by enthusiastic sup porters withdrew. There was one roll call, and on that call every state dele gation cast its solid vote for Col. Frank Knox, a unanimous selection as had been that of Governor Landon. Within a few minutes the entire^ show was over and the fight for the election of the ticket the Republicans had named was on.

IN ONE of the greatest demonstra tions of popular acclaim in the hl_ tory of American politics, Gov. Alfred M- Landon was nominated for Presi dent of the United States by the Repub lican national conven tion meeting In Cleve land. Nominated on the first ballot, Governor Landon received the unprecented number of 984 out of a possible 1003 votes. The nom ination was made unanimous. Although Gov. Landon name had not been placed in nomination. Senator William E- Borah of Idaho received 19 vote*, including 18 from the Wisconsin dele gation and one from Weat Virginia. Col Frank Knox of Chicago, pub lisher of the Chicago Daily New-,, wa_ nominated for Vice President on the ticket- receiving the unanimous vote of the delegates. P a rtv unitv and harmony were the watchwords of the delegates. The ac tion of the turee other leading candi dates for the Presidential nomination— Col. Frank Knox of Chicago, Senator Arthur tVandenberg of Michigan and Senator Borah—In withdrawing In Lan- don’s favor paved the way for a mili tant and united front In the comiDg campaign by the Republican party. The convention adopted a- platform of "Americanism.-- pledging a broad farm relief program, repeal of recip rocal tariff bargaining, the elimination of monopolies and opposition to Amer ican entry into the League of Nations and the World court. Condemning -waste and extrava gance” of the Democratic administra tion- the platform declares for economy by reduced expenditures and for a bal anced budget. Adequate relief for the unemplqyed and co-operation of the states Is provided. The platform de mands the repeal of the present social security program for a simplified pay- as-you-go-- old-age pension plan. With-, out proposing a constitutional amend ment, It pledges support to states min imum wage and working hour laws, abolition of sweatshops and child la bor- improvement of working condi tions and the right of labor to bargain. It calls for restoration and mainte nance of the merit system m civil serv ice- regulation of business by a tribunal whose actions would be subject to court review and federal supervision of interstate utilities. The platform demands adequate na tional defense, right of free enterprise without competition by government, free speech, pledges care of the vet erans and calls for efforts to collect the defaulted war debts. Governor Landon In a telegram read to the convention by his campaign manager. John Hamilton, placed his Own interpretation on certain planks In the platform. Under the title of labor he advocated a Constitutional amend ment permitting the states to adopt legislation necessary to protect women and children In the matter of-maximum hours, minimum wages and working conditions, provided it is not possible to do so under the Constitution as it now stands. He likewise advocated a currency ex pressed in terms of gold and convert ible into gold, adding: "I recognize, however, that this requisite must, not be made until and unless it can be done without penalizing our domestic econ omy and without injury to our produc ers of agricultural products and other raw materials.” Concerning the merit system in civil service, he suggested that it should Include every position in the adminis trative, service below the rank of as sistant secretaries of major depart ments and should cover the entire Post Office department. IN A long expected cabinet shake-up in Italv. Premier Mussolini gave out three of his eight portfolios. There are 15 posts In the cabinet. Tl Duce ap pointed his son-in-law. Count Gaieazzo Ciano, as foreign minister. Ciano. only thirty, three, is the world's youngest foreign min ister. He moved ,up from the cabinet post, of propaganda. Mus solini aiso gave up the ministries of colo nies and corporations, these posts going re spectively to Ferruc- Mussolini cia Lantinl- and Alesandro Lessona. Count Cianos former ministry was taken by Diono Alfieri. Giuseppe Bas- Uanini. ambassador to Poland-, was made undersecretary for foreign af fairs. He is only thirty-seven. The action of Il Duce gave rise to talk of his successor. Observers point ed out that because of the importance of the post of foreign minister. CSano is believed to be In closest succession to MussoiinL Elsewhere in the world governments were experiencing changes. In Nica ragua, Dr. Carlos Brenes Jarquin. com pleting the unexpired term of the de posed President, Dr. Juan B. announced his cabinet. The cabinet Included Dr. Luis Manuel Debayie, minister of foreign relations: Dr. Ge- ronimo Ramirez Brown, prime minis ter: Jose Roman Gonzales, minister of public works: Benito Ramiriz. minister of finance: Dr. Lorenzo Guerrero, min ister of education: Dr. Roberto Gon zalez. minister of health: Dr. Alejandro Sequeira Rivas, sanitary director. LARGER loaves of bread at no in crease In price to the consumer were being offered by leading baking company chains selling their product in large cities of the United StateB. One company increased the size of its 10 cent loaf by 25 per cent, and another by 15 per cent The saving to com- sumers was made possible by the in validation of the AAA processing tax, according to an official of a baking company. The tax was 30 cents a bushel on wheat, he said, and was re flected In an Increase of from $1.28 to $1,40 a barrel for flour. At the same time, the threat of a possible potato famine, due to drouth that Is seriously curtailing crops In the Southeast, caused uneasiness among housewives. Prices rose precipitately, but eased off. because immediate de mand from consumers declined. The seriousness of the situation was re flected In reports from the crop divi sion of the Department of Agriculture that unless rains fell soon an acute shortage will boost the price of pota toes. The carry-over this year was small, it was revealed, and Maine re ported only 100 carloads of last year s holdover on hand. While weather con ditions up to the middle of July will determine the extent of the shortage, it was believed bv farm experts that the later crops will meet the August and September demands. D EATH came to John Hays Ham- famed mining engineer, economist and w riter at his home at Gloucester, Mass. He bad lived a life high In adventure and rich In ,experi ences. He w asafriend and co n fid an t of Theodore . Roosevelt, Mark Twain, H.

Hammond California, in i 1855 where his parents settled after the Mexican war in which his father served as a major. It was the era of the spectacular California gold rush- He watched miners pan for gold dust as a boy. After graduation from Yale he set himself up as a mining engi neer. Soon he visited the west-coast of Mexico, believing it could be devel oped as a mining country. He became known as an expert judge of mining property and was sent to South Africa by "Barney-- Barnato. great speculator of tbe last century. Hammond experienced some romantic adventures including an acrimonious encounter with Paul Kruger, president of the Transvaal republic who sen tenced him. to be hanged and-relented only on the intervention of tbe secre tary of state. After developing mining property In many parts of the world. Mr. Ham mond was appointed bv President Taft in 1911 as special ambassador and per sonal representative at the coronation of King George V. INDICATIVE of the rising tide of business recovery, the W estern Electric company, a subsidiary of the American Telephone and Telegraph company- one of the largest employers of labor In tbe Middle W est,-resumed Its common dividends. The action fol lower restoration of the company s op erations to a profitable basis In 1935, with gains in both sales and employees. Practically the entire payment, amount ing to $3,000,000. goes to American Tele phone and Telegraph, which owns more than 90 per cent of W estern Electrics stock. At the company’s Hawthorne works, rieSr Chicago. 10.500 employees were on the payroll on June I, an increase of-1.730 since January I. This compares with a low of approximately 6,700 during 1933- Employment is now the highest since 1932. AFTER settling a general strike In which 1.000.000 workers had par- al.vzed the Industrial life of France, the new -popular front-- government under Premier Leon Blum was faced with further difficulties In the form of a series of new strikes.A lthough the government had toiled, day and nlgbt trying to adjust disputes- and though most of tbe demands of strikers had been satisfied, by employers, there was a smaller return to work than nad been expected. It was reported that as fast as strikes In some-Industries were settled, others were affected. The extent of tbe permanent ravages which will be left in the wake of this upheaval will only become apparent later on. Some observers predicted that private industry would be forced into bankruptcy so as to secure oper ation by the state. But whether Pre mier Blum and his "popular front government were prepared for such ex treme measures was not at all certain. T HE Supreme Court of HlinoiB up held tbe constitutionality of tbe state's fair trade act In a decision af firming the opinion of the Cook Coun ty Circuit court The court held that Carl W- McNeil, in the liquor business In-Chicago, could not sell his product at less than the wholesale list price. Said the opinion: . “The fair trade act has for its ma jor objective the preservation and pro tection of. propertylnterests of the pro ducer and his distributors In the good will represented by brands, trade marks and trade, names. A VITAL alteration In Great Brit ain’s foreign policy, particularly as i t - affects Anglo-Itallan relations, was indicated by Chancellor of the Exchequer Neville Chamberlain In an address In which he Implied broadly that England may soon move to end sanctions against Italy. Regarded by many experts as likely to become Brit ain's next prime minister, Chamber- lain said: ’Collective security based on sanc tions has failed.-- ThIs was taken to mean that Eng land may reverse the policy which .had supported the League of N ations fu tile sanctions campaign to halt Mus solini's conquest of Ethiopia. In authoritative diplomatic circles In London It was reported that Mussolini had definitely served notice on Britain that Italy will leave the league unless the assembly meeting at Geneva on June 30 drops tbe anti-Italian sanc tions program. Doctor Toliey AGRICULTURE was given represen tation on the federal reserve board through tbe appointment by President Roosevelt of Chester C. Da- vis. adm inistrator of Iljjr the AAA to that body. I 1 In tliscussing his ap- pointment, Mr. Davls said: “The fiscal pol- MMh icy of the federal gov- V ernment has never been tied in closely enough with agricul tural problems.” Mr. Davis has spent most of his life In agricul tural activities. He was born on a farm In Iowa, was graduated from Grlnnell col lege and later owned and operated a farm. For some years he was a news paper publisher and then became editor of the Montana Farmer. Mr. Davis was succeeded as AAA administrator by Dr. Howard R. Tol ley. Nationally known as a soil expert. Doctor Tolley helped Mr. Davis draft the soil conservation plan, enacted af ter the United States Supreme court decision invalidated the AAA. T HE New Deal was made the issue of a congressional campaign In Ala bama with the result that Luther Pat rick. an ardent supporter of the ad ministration. defeated Congressman George Huuuiesiou. au iiiciiinueut for 22 years.

L e s s o n f o r J u n e 2 8 REVIEW: JESUS MEETING HUMAN NEEDS GOLDEN TEXT—Jesus of Nazareth w en t ab o u t doing good.—A cts 10:38PRIMARY TOPIC—Jesus Our Best Friend.JUNIOR TOPIC—Because He Lives. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Jesus Meeting My Needs.YOUNG PEOPLE AND - ADULT TOPIC — Jesus Meeting the World’s Needs. The lessons of the quarter center In one supreme person and have one transcendent theme. Jesus Christ the world’s Savior. T he. best method of review for senior and adult classes will be to refresh, the mind with tbe principal facts and leading teachings of each lesson. The following sugges tions are offered: Lesson for April 5. The great supper represents God's gracious provision of salvation for mankind. The urgent invitation is ex tended to all to accept Jesus Christ as Savior. The making of excuses illus trates the sin and folly of men In re jecting God s free grace. Lesson for April 12. , The resurrection of Jesus Christ Is tbe supreme proof of the deity of Jesus Christ. The empty tomb is tbe divine guarantee that Christ was what he claimed to be. and that his offering on C alvarys cross was accepted . by God. Lesson for April 19. The center of interest in this parable is not tbe prodigal son or his brother, but a certain man who had two sons. He who fails to see the heart of our Father God will miss tbe purpose of the parable. The whole of revelation as it pertains to a sinning race and a pardoning God is swept before us In this narrative. Lesson for April 26. The story of the rich man and Lazarus gives us a look Into two worlds. In this world the rich man lived In luxury while Lazarus begged at his door. In the other world, their positions are reversed. Death Is com ing to ncn and poor. Worldly condi tion is not a test of man s relationship to God. The rich man did not go to hell because be was rich, neither did Lazarus go to heaven because he was poor. Lesson for May 3. Forgiveness is a Christian obliga tion. Humility is a Christian quality. Gratitude is an uncommon grace. Tbe nine lepers who were healed failed to express gratitude to the healer. Lesson for May 10. Prayer is an obligation on the part of the believer. Spiritual growth Is absolutely impossible- without it. Men should pray under all circumstances. Lesson for May 17. Zaccbaeus brushed aside all difll- Vuliies iu order to see Jesus. He proved tbe reality of his conversion by making restitution. He was saved in stantly upon receiving Jesus Christ Salvation is a present reality to those who believe on Jesus Christ Lesson for May 24. Jesus warned against the scribes. They claimed to be loyal to the Word of God yei showed their lack of the saving grace of God. In connection with his teaching in the temple.

In order jto stir up interest in next Novem ber's election and bring out as many as possible of the big army [of stay-at-homes the Executive [Committee of the American Lib erty League has issued a letter to jits more than 100,000 members. jThe appeal not only urges mem bers of the League to vote, but emphasizes the need of their influ ence in getting their neighbors to the polls. The letter follows: I “There can be no question of the Im portance of the elections to be held •this year. The fate of constitutional self-government In the United States may be at state. “In such circumstances every citi- Zfi owes a duty to himself, to his fam- Ilj id to his Nation. His duty is the free and intelligent exercise of his right of franchise—his vote. The bal lot which a free citizen casts may be compared with the payment of a premium upon his insurance policy. If the premium is not paid, the policy lapses and he and his family lose the protection for which he has labored and saved for years. The exercise of your right to vote constitutes the premium you pay to protect the most ,valuable Insurance policy every writ ten—the Constitution of the United States. 8’R ights a t S take. I “The American Liberty League be lieves that the people of the United ■States do not wish to abandon their ConistItution or to permit it to be nulli fied. The League believes that the people are well aware of the fact that the Constitution, and the Constitution alone, protects them In such rights as religions freedom, free speech, a. free press, trial by jury and safeguard of ■lives and property against the whims land caprices of an autocratic bureauc racy.- The League believes that the people know full well that In many of jthe other major Nations of the world today such rights are non-existent be cause of the absence of a definite con stitution made effective by a govern ment In which legislative, executive and Judicial powers are properly sep arated. • “But even If some American citizens do wish to change the f&r'm of their government, the League Is certain that the people are not willing to allow such change to fie made without their express consent and approval. The people themselves, and they alone, have the power and the right to change the Constitution. “In the last four Presidential elec tions, an average of only 53 per cent of all potential voters actually cast their ballots. The men and women who fail to vote have no right to complain of the character of government thrust upon them. If they are too lazy or too Indifferent to go to the polls they must accept the result It must be re membered that those who have a selfish Interest In the outcome of an election are always very careful to vote. 1 Pledges Are Sought I “Because of the unusual importance attaching to the elections this year and because the right of franchise is the most sacred privilege of every citizen, the Hxecutive Committee of the League feels called upon to urge that all of its members In each state of the Union pledge, themselves to exercise the right of franchise In November. The Com. mlttee also urges that each member of the League constitute himself, or her self, a committee of one to obtain sim ilar pledges from as many fellow-citi- zens as possible. “To make this program effective, it Is important that it be started at once. The registration period Is already upon us In some states. In many instances it is necessary to register In order to vote. “The committee wishes to emphasize that It is merely asking members to pledge themselves to vote and to obtain similar pledges from others. In mak ing this pledge, the Committee is not requesting that anyone promise to vote for any particular candidate or any particular political party. It is merely' urging that all indicate their intention to exercise the most valuable right and perform the most sacred duty of citizens In a free democracy.” IaveitigatioiA Delayed - Senate committeemen have decided that there shall be investigations of re lief waste and politics, but the Inquiries are to be postponed until after the elec tion. The Seventy-fourth Congress has been noted for speed, but inquiries In to New Deal extravagance and waste seem to have always been left at the posts:: Unemployment The Administration resents the fact that industries do not hire more men, regardless of whether business can profitably take on more overhead. The public-spirited New Deal has added 235,000 to the Hxecutlve payroll In three vears In spite of the fact that It is more-than $10,000,000,000 la the hole. r a t P A ifflg f t g e o i t p , M c t e s s m t g . a J u n e H i q 3 & Notice of Trustee’s SaleJ , Giving Away His Sm alllnvestor Pays, Pays1 Pays Government Extravagance Eats Into Present and Future Income. • Millions of small Investors In the United States are beginning to awake to their own danger as a result of the Federal Government’s spending and borrowing policies. Newspapers, mag azines and books recently have called attention to the vital interest of bank depositors, holders of life insurance policies and others whose future is affected. Government extravagance and tax measures to. soak the^ thrifty Involve very closely-the "little fellow’s” affairs. Small Investors actually comprise a huge army of creditors. The return they will get will be reduced by 41 per cent if dollar devaluation is wholly success ful. The buying power of their dollars, when full buying power is most needed, will be 59 cents instead of 100 cents. Big Government borrowings and a de valued dollar tend toward inflation. Higher prices, lagging wages and re duced value of the dollar make a dis turbing combination. Peril of Inflation. Dr. Nell Carothers, Director of the College of Business Administration In Lehigh University, said recently: “As it moves on, inflation re duces the valqe of all fixed in comes, from bonds, building and loan shares, preferred stock, and life insurance policies. Slowly but surely It eats away the living of the widow and orphan, takes boys out of school and college, sends old people out to hunt work or charity, - and destroys the life-long accumu lations of thrifty and hard-working people. It destroys universities and hospitals, charities and pen sion systems, wills and Inheri tances,” An illuminating example of how New Deal methods are pumping the small investor dry is offered by P. H. Powell, of Wallingford, Connecticut. In a re cent letter published In the Bulletin of the American Liberty League Mt. Pow ell told how the annual cash dividend on his paid-up life Insurance 'policy- had fallen from $42.70 In 1929 to $12.05 In 1936. In the curent Issue of The Guaranty Survey it was pointed out that 42 per cent of all the families of two or more persons In this country have annual Incomes below $1,500, and the income of 71 per cent Is less than $2,500 an nually. Burden on Earnings. This large low-income class pays no direct Federal income tax but It pays indirect or hidden taxes In almost countless forms. The tax is hidden In the price of what the citizen wears, eats, smokes or drinks and in the cost of renting or owning a home. The Guaranty Survey says: “With nearly three-quarters . of all American families living on an ' income'below what is considered moderate, and with the tax burden on this income already severe and tending to increase, the time should soon arrive,' if It has not ar rived already, when it can no long er be maintained that the advan tage of indirect taxes is that they are painless.” The rank and file of Americans must pay the increasing costs of Govern ment. The small investor pays heav ier taxes out of his present earnings. His future Income from savings will suffer. The Government is spending about, eight billions of dollars this year. The 1936 deficit will be about four billions of dollars. These deficits have been piling up year by year. The small investor should.be the first to de mand that his Government'balance its budget. - Out at First Base The Black Lobby Committee, found guilty of violating the Fourth Amend- ment of the Constitution, made the de fense that it was after Information which would aid In passing a new law governing lobbying. So, for one mew law, favored by five Senators, the country is asked to trade several con stitutional guaranties of personal rights, privileges . and immunities, which are a part of the foundation of our free form of Government. The Supreme Court of the. District of Co lumbia looked the committee’s propo sition ov(er and decided it was not a good swap. Where Is Report? More than a month ago Represent ative McLeod of Michigan demanded that Harry Hopkins make public a report written by Gfen. Hugh Johnson when the General relinquished his jotf as New York Works Progress adminis trator. it Is known that the report contains startling facts about the man ner in which relief billions are being spent.
