S enator F red F olger of- S u riy county, w hose fath er is a m em ber of the state school com m ission, pro­ poses th a t th e state rid itself -as raoidly as possible of all wood school bus bodies * H e w ould have these replaced w ithin tw o years- by all- steel or steel rejnforced bodies. S enator F olger’s action is prim ari­ ly prom pted by the w recking of a tru ck in hisco u u ty , w here only two of the children ‘.who crow ded the vehicle escaped inju ry when a w reck occurred. A body of m ore sub­ stantial construction w ould have prevented a num ber of the injuries or reduced th eir seriousness, in the evident opinion of the senator. D uring the past tw o or three years there have been several rather serious school bus crashes in the state, and it has eventuated that the w isdom of m ore ^pbstantial body construction has been strikingly dem onstrated. N o rth C arolina transports m ore children to school than any other state and operates more buses than any other. It has led the way in ru ral school consolidation. It would therefore appear im perative that it also poiiit the w ay in safety m eas­ ures to proteict these children. T he buses now being furnished for the sta te school com m ission are said to be m uch m ore substantial and th ere­ fore safer, .than m any form erly pro vided by ibe counties and taken over b / th e state.

They Have The Right To Yell For It. From the Des Moines Register Because he shouted “ we w ant'our btnus” as President Roosevelt was passing a throng th at watched his at* rival at the capital, a veteran was ar­ rested by capitol police and hustltd off to the guard room of the senate office building w here he was ques­ tioned and held tem porarly on a charge of disorderly conduct. The question naturally arises as to w hat police would have done had the " m an shouted “ H urrah for Roose­ velt.” It seems quite beside the point that th at the veteran subsequently declared th at he thinks “ Roosevelt is a good guy” and th at he “ didn’t mean to start anything.” For, while no one disputes the necessity for thorough protection of the president during bis appearances in public, our laws are scarcely draw n yet to the fine point of dis­ tinction between the orderliness of two sounds, one of which may be interpreted as a cheer and approba­ tion find the other a3 a “ boo” or-dis­ approval.

HOUSANDS of tourists visit the Garden of the Gods in Colorado each year. They stand In awe be- fore fiery-red pinnacles etched against the blue sky. They marvel at those fantastic rock formations—the' gods of mythology, with their human shapes, some of their hats, most of their spears, and a few of their cathe­ dral spires, towering about them in red sandstone. They are unaw are' of an ancient, dram atic “civilization” living under their feet. Yet here, In the sandstone ridges, dwell creatures who might themselves have stepped from living myths—crea­ tures with yellow heads and large, in­ flated, translucent bodies, who are, per­ haps, the most self-sacrificing beings known. In fairy tales boys and girls are fat­ tened by witches, so th at they may later be eaten with gusto. In this race, dwelling In darkness in the Garden of the Gods, children are fed enormously, so that a few may become overcapa- cious and hang in underground cellars for months, for years, as living casks of honey. This would be terrifying were these creatures human. Instead, they are honey ants. Honey ants are unhuman and unlike any other insects in their translation of themselves into honeypots. They gather a honey not unlike th at of bees and store it impound, tliin casks that let the beautiful am ber of honey shine through. B ut the. casks possess living trunks, living heads, living legs. They hang by living claws to the cellar roof, and open a living spigot when an im­ biber- comes to drink. For this, chil­ dren are fed to enormous size and cham bered in eternal darkness. H ere and there, across the tufts of gram a grass and wild sunflower heads, gleam little mounds of red sandstone and bright-colored quartz—craters cut into rock. The red, loose stones roll out on all sides to a diam eter of about thirty inches, with each mound rising to three or four inches, pf&rced by a large central entrance hole. Outside, all looks sim ple; but inside, a descending shaft runs vertically for a while before carrying off sharply to a long gallery and other shafts, forming galleries under galleries, all running in the sam e direction. Then, seldom far from the surface, usually up or down a few steps from a main gallery, single or in suites, are the wine cel­ lars, the honey chambers, the for- ever-homes of the swollen members of the race. W onderful Honey Chambers. The lioney cham bers where they hang are virtually death chambers, except that life flows from them freely. The severed casks of honey in the burial grounds form a nightm are thing, cask rolled beside cask. But beauty exists in the ants’ refusal to touch a honey cask after its owner has died. The lit­ tle crammed honey-pots stand idle and untouched, once they are rolled into the cemeteries. - Be an Alice in W onderland in such a home, if you will. Come down that wide central stair, having ducked into the rabbit hole, passed sentinels at the gate, and, given the essential salute. All is dusky dim ; only that.glim m ering round of daylight above. You turn left down a long, narrow passage, which leads into deeper and deeper darkness; -but the floor glints up with a firm pol­ ish—the floor deliberately made smooth, not merely worn smooth by the passing of innumerable feet. AnCv !»e walls are smooth and straig h t a sort of guide in the dark. Little feet rustle by—ants laden" with earth, excavating a new room far at the end of the passage. AU that mound above was formed by sim ilar excava­ tions; each pebble, each shining bit of qnartz, was carried along galleries up the main stairs and out. “Um-m-m I” An act licks her mandi­ bles, giving off a vague sweet scent H oney! Somewhere near is a honey cellar. Thie ant has, paused in working to take a good stiff drink. A shaft de­ scends darkly to the left; cautiously down, down, to a great vaulted, globe- lighted room. The vaulted roof is clustered with enormous hanging lamps. No, not lam ps ; pale am ber spheres, 'hang ng about midway into the room. ooMPyipg h a lf the Celiar space. ™" with the light that W NU-7 5—35 Quit Using Tobacco! S M B S M S S if iiH S a - S K W K H S f c B S B E - The globes,glow lives in honey their pale-gold color is the richness of honey; that scent rising from them _ls the warm flavor of honey. Bach globe is a living jewel, nothing more nor less S i the distended body of a .iving ant, filled almost to bursting with limpid honey, clufched to the roof by its claws. They crowd the arched celling.; stir i-estlessly; twist their yellow heads, squirm their shoulders, but do not loos- en hold. Below them the clean walls slope to the level floor, which is swept, polished, made smooth. H ut the roof is gritty, purposely left rough, for the claws to m aintain perch. The roof arches half again the height of the w alls; a cellar made de­ liberately for honey casks, to allow free passage beneath, space for keeping the 'honey cakes clean and the cellar free from mold.- An Ant Takes a Drink. There are little, soft sounds, as the great globes stir, shift an arm or foot, sway a little nearer to a neighbor. “C areful! Don’t dare lean. You might break m e!” And one turns a pointed yellow head toward another’s. The globes are not all clear amber. Queer dark planes streak them. Their trans­ lucent part is inner skin stretched to balloon proportions, pushing apart the dark planes of the outer body, forming islands, on a globe map of strange world seas. Suddenly an ant enters to drink. She looks like these hanging ants, yellow- beaded, yellow-waisted, but she wears no inflated balloon. H er antennae lift inquisitively. Already the foretaste of honey is in her mouth. She stands almost erect, climbs to the hanging ant, leans to its,, Uttle close mouth. “Open, please.” Obediently its mouth opens. Up comes a clear drop of . honey, pushed up by some inner move­ ment, to hang a moment, glistening, on the cask’s lower mandible, before drop­ ping into the waiting ant’s mouth. She takes one, two, even three, drops. “Thank y ou; you may close.” She climbs down, and the little spigot mouth closes. ^Before the ant leaves she "daintily wipes her .mouth against the back of her hand, smooths down her back hair, then trots off, groomed, well fed. Another ant-enters; another, another. Each Climbs to a chosen sphere; says, “Open, please,” - wjth that leaning of mouth to mouth and the mouth opens and up comes the honey drop. But suppose they enter to deposit honey rather than receive -it W hat then? Painfully; slowly this time, be­ cause so laden they are almost honey casks themselves, the ants climb to the hanging casks, place mouth to mouth. “Open, please,” and, with an­ tennae held back out of the way, let drops of honey form on their mandi­ bles to enter the obedient casks. This new honey is alm ost white In its freshness. As long as drops are there to fall in, the little spigot mouth holds open. Then the emptied ant, re­ lieved, turns aw ay; and m e globe, clinging to the roof, gleams larger, more bulbous still, with the added content. It scarcely dares draw a full breath, move an arm, or shift a leg for fear this new weight and full­ ness will make it burst or fall. Developed Into Honey Casks. Poor little doomed creatures! W hat determined such a fate? When young, they resembled other ants. They had the same two stomachs—one private, the other for communal use. Much that en­ tered their mouths they never tasted, for it passed at once to the communal crop, to be fed later to the queen (whose duties are like those of the queen bee); to males (resembling drones in a h ive); to workers, or to baby ants. But some showed an enor­ mous capacity for food. How they begged, their pale mouths open all the tim e! Now these are honey casks. Late dusk In the Garden of the Gods. .T he sandstone gods are.cold and dark. They have had their play of light all day, while the red mounds of the ants stayed quiet, with gates closed. Seeniingly all inside were asleep; yet few ants slept, being busy,, most of them, with underground tasks. Now ants push out of that round tubular- hold so fast they cover -the mound. If this were daylight, no red rock would shine. Yellow ants are everywhere, by hundreds, by thousands. A ring of sentinels begins- pacing the outer edges of the mound. Others guard the gate, their heads .thrusting up, like soldiers with bayonets Still others move about the narrow platform surrounding the gate, while one ant, then tweBty, then a whole column of ants, move off over the ridge, preparing for a march. In the vales, between the ridges, far, far away, low scrub oaks in tlie light Of the moon, thrust up their dark- thick leaves The. ants know these .dwarf oaks They move through straggly bunches -of grass' on a fam iliar path, with -scant. deviation, reaching tbe oak copse in fifteen minutes. Moonlight pierces the leaves sharply, revealing the ants straddling . up' the-- stems, clambering out over leaves searching endlessly, sometimes fruitlessly^ for -new oak galls, with their tiny flashes of ship ing sweet. - HERE’S CHAIR SET EASY TO CROCHET By GRANDMOTHER CURK Since crochet work Is again inter­ esting the a r t" needleworkers, why not pick up yoqr No. 8 or 9 steel crochet hook and thread about size 15 and crochet this attractive three- piece set for your living room chair, or for a gift?

The child can be taught independ­ ence if the parent finds out w hat the child can do for himself and what he cannot do, and then does only w hat is necessary. Children like to do things for themselves and it is one way they. Ieam not only to do things, but to be independent. This also applies to teaching the child to make decisions for himself. Children who are never allowed to decide things for themselves grow up into men and women who have a hard time, and no one needs self-confi­ dence and Independence more than the handicapped person. Idleness Is bad and makes children unhappy. The handicapped child should.be kept occupied with games and hobbies In which he is interest­ ed, but there should be a careful steering between overexertion and underexertion. AU physically handi­ capped children need extra rest, which should be a" part of the daily routine. Too much exercise is worse than none. but now growing In popularity and are modern. This set is worked In the large filet stitch, works up rap­ idly and is simple work even for the inexperienced. The center piece measures 14x11 inches, the arm rests 6x1] inches, with about size 15 thread. By using a larger hook and crocheting looser, the finished pieces will be larger, if desired.

The parents of the neglected child will feel outraged that such a thing as a handicapped child has been wished on them. They are liable to worry a bit and then they shut the child out of their lives and emotions as far as possible and feel no respon­ sibility for his preparation for life The second set of parents make pity, of themselves and of the child, the biggest stumbling block in the way of educating the child. If the parent pities tlie child, the child will pity him self Instead of making the best of his condition. The child Is allowed to become spoiled, irritable, exacting, wanting everything his own way and-doing nothing foriiim self.

Jlm sa t up with a violent sta rt “You! . . . W hat Is it? H as that devil—" “Hush! Not so loud. Nothing has happened. . . . But I couldn't sleep— and I must talk to you—or go out of my mind.” Td the starlight her face had the same pearl-white tint as the clouds. “All right Talk—but it’s risky,” he whispered huskily. His hand rested upon the blanket She bent lower, so that her face-w as closer, and she could w hisper very softly: “First I want to tell you how cruelly It has come home to me—my Igno­ rance, my failure to believe and tru st you, even after you—so—so rudely In­ sulted me that day up on the moun­ tain trail.

You have forgotten th at I love you.” "Yes—I had,” she whispered. H er great eyes studied him In the star­ light as If the fact had ,a vastly dif­ ferent significance here than It had had a t S tar ranch. Suddenly she stiffened, no doubt at the slight sound that had checked her speech. She put a hand over his lips and- stared a t him with ■ Wide vague eyes. Over her shoulder Jim ’s eye was a r­ rested by a glint of starlight upon a bright object on the ground. Above and behind it a shape darker than the dark background, gradually took the outline of a man on hands and knees. Cold terror assailed Jim Wall, de­ spite his Iron nerve. T hat was Hays craw ling upon them with a gun In his hand. A bursting tide of blood through Jim 's veins paralleled the lightning flash of his thoughts. Death for both of them was terribly close. His gun w as under his pillow. Helen knelt be­ tw een him and the robber. A move of even the slightest kind would be fatal. Cunning m ust take precedence of ac­ tion. “It's Hays,” he whispered, scarcely audibly. “Follow me—now.” Then, exerting all his will to speak natural­ ly, he said aloud: “No, Miss Herrick, I'm sorry, but I can’t oblige you. I don’t approve of H ays’ kidnaping you, but It’s done. And I’m a mefnber of his band.' I would not think of going against him, let alone trying to run off w ith you.” There w as a tense silence, fraught w ith much apprehension for Jim. W ould she be able to play up to him? There w as Just a chance that Hays had not heard any of their whispers, “The Thing is—Boss—Will We Get It?” In which case It was possible to de­ ceive him. Helen comprehended. It w as Jim W all’s privilege then to see the reaction of a woman at a perilous moment. ‘T l! give -you the ransom money,” she said, quite clearly, and certainly m ost persuasively. "My brother will rew ard you otherw ise.” “You can’t bribe me,” he rejoined. “And I wouldn’t advise you to try It on Smoky or any of the others.” “H ays may have had only money In his mind a t first, but now—” “Don’t move, Jim !” came a low, hard voice from the shadow. Helen gave a~ little gasp and sagged on her knees. Jim waited a m om ent “I won't. Hank,” he replied. Then Hays’ tall form loomed black above the rise of ground. He strode forw ard. If he had sheathed his gun, Jlm would have m ade short work of th at Interview. But he held It half leveled,, glancing darkly In the star­ light. The robber chief gazed down upon Jlm and Helen. His features were Indistinguishable, but the poise of h is head w as expressive enough. Still Jlm sensed that he had been misled. “You cat!” he declared, roughly. “If I ketch you again—tryln’ to bribe any of my outfit—1’U treat you so you won’t w ant to go back to your baby-faced brother. . . . Now you g it to your te a t I” , _ ~ Helen rose unsteadily and vanished In th e gloom. -Jlm W all, you ain’t been with me long, an’ I don’t know you,” but I’m takln’ this deal to heart,” Hays said slowly. “Fm much dbllged. I reckon you’re the only m an ln 'tb e outfit who could of w ithstood thet woman. “Nb, you’re wrong Hank. Smoky wouldn’t have listened to her. And I’m sure the others would have stood pat.” „“My fa itlrw a s near gone. ••That's In yon, H ank.

It m ight prevent tte split—provided you divide tte money you stole from Herrick.” •Tl! w ring thet w hite cat’s neck” hissed the robber. “You’re wrong boss. She didn’t tell me. She doesn't know you robbed her brother. Sparrow confessed before he died." H ays swore a m ighty oath. “An’ he squealed?” “Yes. To Smoky an’ me. We kept It, secret until we had to tell. They knew ’ som ethin’ was wrong.” “All the tim e you knowed!” There . w as‘som ething-,pathetic In the fallen chieftain’s sham e and amaze.. By this tim e he seemed to realize his crime. “You see, Hank, how your outfit has stood by you, even In your g u ilt” “Ahuh I . . . If It ain’t too late—Fll make amends,” he rejoined hoarsely, and stalked away In tte darkness. Jim lay back on his blankets with a weight of oppression removed. He had saved himself for the hour, but w hat would the outcome be? He bad breakfast before tte other men were up. with rifle In hand he headed tow ard the western e x it The sun was still beneath the rim of tte escarpm ents, In the east, but Its golden approach was heralded by a magnificent glory of red and gold. Loneliness was param ount There w as no sound—only an immense silence. No life a t all I Not a winged creature hovering over that ghastly region! But over this scene of deso­ lation slow fr spread the solemn blight of heating, blazing sun, soon to man­ tle all In illusive copper haze. Before that hour arrived, Jlm Wall took up the field glass. Below In the camp the men were lazily stirring to a late breakfast The door of the cabin was open. A glint of gold crossed the dark aperture. Then the tall form of Hays stalked o u t He yawned. He, stretched wide his long arms. His ruddy face gleamed In the glass to that sight W all’s whole being leaped. “By heaven I” his voice rang o u t “Hays, that’s your last morning’s stretch. . . . Before this day’s done you’ll stretch forever!" L et his men have their hour, thought Jlm darkly, but If they did not mete out justice to thetr chief the end was nevertheless fixed and unalterable. Jim settled back and raised his fleldglass more from habit than any semblance of the old watchfulness. There was nothing to see but the stark denudation of the brakes. Suddenly into Jim ’s magnified circle of vision crept dark objects—a long line of them. H e was so startled that the glass wavered out of line. He moved It to and- fro, searching. W hat could that have been? An error of sight, a line of cedars, a conception of Idle mind! “T here!” he breathed. He had caught it again, Not cedars—not brush, but moving objects! . . . “By heaven!” he muttered. “Am I dotty?” H orses! A IiDe of dark horses! His straining eyes blurred. He lowered the glass with shaking bands. “So help me—it looks like riders!” A third tim e Jim caught the objects. He froze the glass on them. Horses and riders—horses with packs! A bursting gush of hot blood ran all through him. It looked like Heese­ man’s outfit, at least three, miles away, approaching slowly by a route far to the south of that over which Hays had come. “About three miles,” m uttered Jim . “Coming slow. They’re lost. . . . B ut that wash they’re In heads into tte Hays trail. . . . If they strike th at they’ll come fast. Not enough rain yet to wash out our tracks. We’ve not tim e to pack and ride o u t . . . By thunder, they’ve cornered us I Now, Hank Hays—” Jim took one more straining look. No hope! It w as a big outfit and not traveling so slowly, either. The leader bestrode a black horse. Jlm remem­ bered that horse. Snatching up his rifle he slung the field-glass over his shoulder and ran down off the bluff to the camp. To his profound amaze he espied Hays bound hand and foot with a stick behind him and through his el­ bows. The robber sat In an uncom­ fortable posture against the woodpile. In a second Jim saw th at Hays bad been gagged and his'face was so con­ torted by rage that It appeared scarce­ ly human. “W hat’s up!” cried Jim , breaking out of his bewilderment. Hays gave vent to an Inarticulate sound, but it was expressive. Jim wheeled to stalk under tte shack, his hand on his gun, as If he half ex­ pected Heeseman to have arrived be­ fore him. To his. further amaze Mlss Herrick was sitting a t the rude table, eating breakfast A big gun, that Jim recognized as Hays’ property, lay con­ spicuously In front of her. Happy Jack, whistling as usual, was serving her. ~ .“W hat does this mean?” demanded Jim . • . “Ask the men,” she replied, curtly. Ontslde and below tte shack sat Smoky on a- rock, with the otter* standing near. “Mawnin’, Jim ,” draw led Smoky, with a grin. “You see ^we’ve got • ■new chief.” i “Who hawg-tied the boss?” “ Reckon I did—w ith a little help." “W hat for?” , “D—n’ If I know.

Lesson for Februaiy 10 PETER PREACHES AT PENTECOST LESSON TEXT—Acts 2 :22 -28 ,. 36-42.. ’ GOLDEN TEXT—Then Peter said un­ to them. Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38. PRIMART TOPIC — When Peter Preached a Great Sermon.JUNIOR TOPIC—What Peter Preached at Pentecost. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­IC—The .Story of a Wonderful Day. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—The Source of Spiritual Power. In teaching this lesson it Is essential' that the full meaning of Pentecost be apprehended. It is desirable, therefore, that the entire second chapter of Acts be brought Into view. I. The Day of Pentecost Fully Come (vv. 1-13). 1. The significance of the day (v. 1). Pentecost is from a Greek word meaning fifty. It was the feast held fifty days after the wave slieaf offer­ ing (Lev. 23:16). The wave sheaf typi­ fies the resurrection of Christ (I Cor. 15:20-23). 2. The gift of the Holy Spirit (vv. 2-4). On this day the Holy Spirit de­ scended uppD the disciples. This does not mean that the Spirit was not in the world before this, for' throughout all the ages he has been Id the world, giving Ught and life to it. 3. Upon whom the Spirit came (v. I ; Cf. 1:13-15). The twelve and others, both men and women, to the number of one hundred twenty, which shows that the gift of the Holy Spirit was for all believers, not merely tte apos­ tles. 4. The m arks of the Spirit (w . 2-41. These marks were externa) and in­ ternal. a. External. (1) The sound of a mighty wind (v. 2). This is" suggestive of the mysteri­ ous, pervasive and powerful energy of the Spirit (2) Tongnes of flame (v. 3). Each of the one hundred twenty was crowned with such a tongue for wit­ nessing. (3) Speaking In foreign tongues (v. 4). This miraculous gift characterized the apostolic age. but no authentic case has been reported in modern times. b. InternaL This is seen in the trans­ formation wrought In the disciples. Peter, who shortly before this cowered before a Jewish maid, now with bold­ ness stands before the chief rulers and declares that they have murdered their King, and are guilty before God. 5. The effects (vv. 5-13). a. The multitudes were filled with amazement and wonder. b. Some mocked and accused the disciples of being intoxicated. II. Peter’s Sermhn (vv. 14-47). Peter’s sermon is as wonderful as the gift of tongues. It demonstrates the presence and power of the Spirit because he was a Galilean fisherman, without literary training. His homilet- ical analysis is perfect L The introduction (vv. 14-21). , a. Defense of the disciples against the charge of being drunk (v. 15). He 'cited Jewish custom, showing that they would not be drunk at such an early hour of tte day. b. A scriptural explanation (vv. 16- 21). He showed that this was a par­ tial fulfillment of Joel’s prophecy (Joel 2:28-32). 2. The proposition, or theme (v. 36). This was the messiahship of Jesus. The argument which followed proved that Jesus was the Lord upon whom they were to call iD order to be saved. 3. The argument (vv. 22-36). It was threefold. a. From Christ’s works (v. 22). He was approved of God among the Jew s -by his miracles, wonders, and signs, with which they were familiar. b. From his resurrection (vv. 23-32). The Old Testament Scriptures bad foretold the death and resurrection of Ch.rist (Ps. 16:8-10). The disciples themselves were Bring witnesses of Christ’s resurrection (v. 32). c. From his ascension to tte right band of God (v. 33). The proof that he bad ascended on high was the won­ derful miracle, of tte Spirit’s operation In their midst (John 16:7). 4. The effect of the sermon (w . 37- ,42); Many people were convicted of their sins; some three thousand re­ pented and were baptized. The evi­ dence that tte coming of tte Spirit was real w as: a. That they'continued steadfastly In the apostolic teaching- (v. 42). b. They continued in fellowship with the apostles (v. 42). c. They continued In prayer (v. 42). d. They gave their possessions to sostain those who had need (v. 45). e. They Uved, gracious Uves (vv. 46, 47).

By EDWARD W- PICKARD © by Western Newspaper Union. President Ti A d s i i x i s t r a t i o n forces asmg steam roller tactics crushed all opposition to jam the President’s $4,800,000,000 relief program through the house. Efforts to fight the grant ofsnch • unprecedented author­ ity to the President , were unavailing as the -,T**-*- ? W hite House cracked the whip over revolt­ ing representatives. Fi­ nal vote on the meas- nre was 328 to 78. The vote climaxed a furious eight-hour de­ bate on the measure. Members attem pted to a t t a c h amendments which would protect private industry from government projects which might be launched under the relief plan. When this failed they endeavored to allocate the money for specific pur­ poses. When the debate ta d reached Its height, the President sent a message to the house declaring it would be impossible to segregate items for which the money would be expended, but that the huge outlay of sums would be de­ voted to public projects and that aft"* the immediate crisis of Unemploymert had passed it was' his hope that the couDtry could set aside $500,000,000 a year for the “national plan.” The W hite House message was the signal for the Democratic majority to push the message across with little change from its original form. On the final vote 26 Republicans voted for the bill. Seven Progressives and thri e Farmer-Laborites also registered af firmative votes. Ten Democrats, five from Georgia, three from Virginia, and two from Indiana, voted with the oppo­ sition. Because of the gag rnle adopted by the bouse, only amendments' offered by the appropriations committee could be considered in vital sections of the measure. Such minor amendments as were decided upon went through with­ out serious opposition. One of the amendments striking out a list of projects that might be includ­ ed in spending the $4,000,000,000 aiid left the vast sum to be used for "fed­ eral or nonfederal projects” actually broadened the powers of the President. The $800,000,000 will be used at the President’s discretion for relief pur­ poses while the program is being put into effect. Another amendment struck out a subsection which gave the President authority to postpone the end of any existing government agency. This was a move to satisfy certain Democrats who were opposed to Secretary Ickes, and his PWA program which expires In June. Another clause granting au­ thority to the President to acquire personal property by the power of eminent domain was also removed, as was the section granting the Chief Executive the power to Impose two years’ imprisonment on any violator. The only other amendment which suc­ ceeded In passage wa3 one which pro­ vided that an accounting be made tor all moneys spent. Minority Deader Snell attacked the bill declaring that the money involved amounted to one-eighth of the nation­ al Income, and that the house was en­ titled to know what the money was for. Later In conceding the minority’s defeat he said that if the opposition was free- to speak its mind, the bill would be defeated two to one, but that under the executive lash, there was no chance' of defeating it NEW DEALERS sighed with relief as the Supreme court recessed until February 4 without handing down Its decision in the gold cases, thus giving the administration more time In which to prepare legislation de­ signed to handle the situation in the event the court renders an adverse decision. At the same time the court promised to decide a case presenting a clear-cut test of the constitutionality of the na­ tional recovery act. aDd which will probably have considerable effect upon .. the ultim ate fate of th e already be­ draggled Blue Eagle.

Under provisions of the measure there would; be ten-year, bonds in am ounts as small as $25, and. as ex-, plained by the Treasury department, would be sold below par. There would be no interest, but'each six months the bonds would appreciate in value a t the rate of 2>6 per cent, plus con- pounded earnings. - . Huge sums are involved:. first, the. creation of a revolving bond authoriza Uoh fund of $2,500,000,000; and. sec \ ond, the consolidation of the two pres­ ent revolving funds of $10 ,000,000,000 each into a joint $20,000,000,000 fund for bills, certificates and notes. Bruno Hauptmann A NEW lease of Ufe for the Recon­ struction Finance corporation was seen as a result of a favorable vote by the senate banking committee, after hearing Jesse Jones RFC chairman, and Commissioner O iarles D. Mahalfie of the interstate commerce commis­ sion. The proposed, bill permits the RFC to buy railroad obligations in reorgani­ zation proceedings with the approval of the ICC; to buy stock in mortgage loan companies and sim ilar financial institutions; to purchase the assets of closed banks under certain con­ ditions; to increase authorized in­ vestments in preferred stock and cap­ ital notes of insurance companies, and to continue the Commodity Credit corporation and the Export-Import bank. WHITE-FACED, under the glare of the courtroom lights, but appar­ ently cool, Bruno Richard Hauptmann took the stand to begin his fight for life. The little Flem- ington (N. J.j. court; house was packed as the man accused of the murder of the first­ born son of Charles A. Lindbergh began his testimony which he ap­ pears confident will save him from the elec­ tric chair. Calmly, he told of his early life, of his war service, and ad­ mitted that he had once been convicted In Germany. His thick, guttural voice resounded through the room as he recounted how he had made three attem pts to enter this coun­ try before he was successful. Under the smooth questioning of Chief Defense Counsel Reilly he re­ lated the details of his life up until the time of the Lindhergh baby kidnaping, and then proposed the alibi upon which be is apparently relying for acquittal. Hauptmann declared that on tlfe' night of April 2, 1932, when $50,000 was paid to a man In SL Raymond's cemetery, New York, he, bis wife and a man named Kloppenberg had been at home until about eleven o’clock and that he did not leave his home at all that evening. He also denied that he had been absent from work on the day the kidnaping took place. Two witnesses introduced by the defense to establish Hauptmann’s ali­ bi were not entirely satisfactory. Chris­ tian Frederlrkson, Bronx baker, said Hauptmann’s wife had been employed In his store as a waitress and countf' girl and that the accused had called for her on the night of March I. Upon cross-examination, however, he stated that he was not sure, but that it must have been so because it was Haup mann's custom to call for hts wll i whenever she worked late. Mrs. Frederickson also stated th:ii Mrs. Hauptmann worked late od tt > night of March I, but was unable u say whether Hauptmann bad been at the bakery. She stated, however, that she had seen Isador Fisch, furrier friend of Hauptmann who died-in Ger­ many, on the eve of his Sa-Ring for Germany in November, 1932. She said Fisch displayed a large sum of money, but she was unable to say w hether it was In greenbacks or gold certificates. Throughout Hauptmann’s testimony Colonel Lindbergh continued to stare at him. During the court session, Lind­ bergh reiterated his belief that Haupt­ mann's voice was the same as that of the mysterious “John” who had hoaxed him out of the ransom money nearly three years ago. WAR flamed agaln: in Mancbukuo as Japanese troops struck sud­ denly at three points In -Chahar prov-. tnce in northern China. Three fortified cities were shelled,"and there were in­ dications that the drive had only be­ gun. The Japanese attack came as a sur­ prise since it was reported that nego­ tiations for a peaceful settlem ent of the dispute over Chah'ar province had been nearing a successful conclusion.. Japan had asserted that Chinese troops in Chahar had invaded JehoL M ilitary. authorities declined to an­ nounce the real objective of the drive. The district which the Tapanese troops occupied is about 150: milesTong by 50. miles; wide, and is said to contain val­ uable gold mines. ■ Japan’s action is seen by Chinese leaders as a determined gesture.to in­ tim idate Mongolian princes of Inner Mongolia and to cut the overland, route connecting Peiping with Urga, capital of'Soviet controlled Outer Mongolia. The. situation is viewed with consid­ erable apprehension by BovIet Russia. The drive, will bring Japanese military operations'into direct , contact .with, the borders of Outer Mongolia, and prac­ tically all high officials- of the terri­ tory who . have been - attending the Soviet anniversary celebrations In Mos­ cow have' hurried back to their, pro- .

Construction of a series of air bases for the United States, the addi­ tion of 4.000 planes to the service, and building a huge dirigible will be among the projects which the President Ap­ proves. The proposed construction is in ac­ cord with a report just made by the special aviation commission. It is the purpose of the commission to lease the dirigible to a commercial firm as a sis­ ter ship to the Graf Zeppelin which will start regular transatlantic service with­ in a few weeks. The series of bases along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts will make America impregnable to air attack, the commis­ sion believes, while the addition of 4,000 planes to the army and navy serv­ ice will bring it up to far more, than the existing fighting strength. The commission has also recommend­ ed creation of a special five-man avi­ ation commission to regulate civil aero­ nautics. T H E death toll continued to mount as reports seeped in from north­ west Mississippi and southwest Ten­ nessee where the turbulent Coldwater river was a raging torrent, threaten­ ing the lives and property of thousands In its march to the Tallahatchie basin. Freezing w eather added to the suf­ fering of thousands,driven from theif homes. W orkers toiled to rescue as many as possible of those- w ho. b ad ; been marooned on roof tops and In . trees. A number of communities have been evacuated because it 'is feared the w aters will continue to spread. Appeals for additional help in caring for the homeless have been made by public officials, and Red Cross aid has been rushed to the stricken areas.- Premier Mussolini PO SSIBILITY of. a move by the Ital- * Ian government to make a protec­ torate out of Ethiopia was seen by European statesmen. Exploitation of the announcement of the s l a y i n g of a French Somaliland ad­ m in is tra to r an d 96 French Somaliland ad- ployees and Somalis was said to indicate that a movement was on for Italy to take over the mountainous African kingdom to re­ store, order. The con­ sent of France and G reat Britain to the plan has been obtained, it was reported. A number of recent developments point toward some action by the Ital­ ian governm ent Premier Mussolini recently took over the office of min­ ister of colonies; Gen. Emilio de Bono, former m inister of colonies, was named high commissioner of Italian East A frica; military roads have been constructed through Italian Somaliland to the Ethiopian frontier; and the Italians Tiave recently taken over a bigger share' In the operation of the Djibouti and Addis Abbaba railway. Recent history affords a number o f precedents, for the Italimi government’ to follow' Japanese intervention' In Manchuria was “to -restore' order and reduce Chinese banditry."- and. Italy might use the vCxcuse of reducing Ethiopian banditry as a reason for in­ vasion. The British action In Egypt and the Sudan, and the French sum jugatlon of Tunis also offer , parallel cases.. BRISBANE T H I S W E E K ! OW Age Pensions ( Does Lashing Do G ood. I Those Cosmic Raya I 6 ,OOO-Tear-Old Graves Financial conservatism is agitated because old-age pensions as pLanned moderately, by the PresidenL would cost one biDIon dollars a year- Con servatism might better worry about Doctor Townsend’s plan to give tvv hundred dollars a month to everybody past sixty years of age, and cost at least twenty-four thousand minions a year. Conservatism m ight also worry about billions spent uselessly in state, na­ tional or local government costs, and taxes that run above thirteen thou­ sand million dollars a year. At W ilmington, Del., three young men, eighteen, tw enty and tw enty-three years old, were lashed In public, a crowd of one hundred looking on. A fter the lashing, on the bare back, the youths began ten-year prison sen­ tences foi burglary. The Iasb fright­ ens criminals more than imprisonmenL as was proved in London, w here .an epidemic of "garrotting” ended as soon as the Iasb was used. But w hat WiD be the m ental state of those young men when they leave prison after long as­ sociation with experienced crim inals, and constant brooding on the humili­ ation and pain of tbe lashing? Can it be hoped that they will be re­ formed, or. be anything except con­ firmed criminals, and enem ies of so­ ciety? A learned German says he has dis­ covered the source of “cosmic rays” that bombard all space, constantly passing through your body, although you don’t know iL driven by the ter­ rific energy of billions of volts. The professor suggests th at the bombard­ ment may occasionally break down a few of the atom s in the human body, thus slowly changing heredity. T hat sounds like a great deal of trou­ ble, to change heredity, which depends, really, on the right girl choosing the right kind of father for her children.

He felt pride in contributions m ade to this, country by the men of Holland through three hun­ dred years. The Roosevelts are of D utch-origin, but unlike his distant cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, the Pres­ ident did not recite any childish Dutch poems about cows in “the kopjes.” To know w hat the "Old Hollanders really were, as fighters and “stayers,” read Motley.

O f course, there a re m ore people w ho a re not law yers than who are fam iliar w ith law s and th at m ay be the answ er to tb e fact th a t the SSprem e court can be said to be little known. B ut it seem s now th at the court is to be a center of attraction ju st as interesting as either the executive or legislative branches. T he reason is th a t the highest legal tribunal in the land has before it for decision some of th e m ost momentous legal contro­ versies to engage th e country since th e days of the Civil w ar. Through m any m onths; questions concerning the New D eal, th eir legality and constitution­ ality, have been wending their slow, tortnons w ay through th e low er courts, through the courts o f appeals to the court o f last resort under the structure which we know a s our governm ent. One of these, a s I reported to you previously, has already been decided. In th a t instance, the Suprem e court by a vote of eight of the nine judges de­ term ined th at PresidenLR ocsevelt had gone beyond the pow ers accorded him nnder the C onstitution in prohibiting export of oil from the state w here-It w as recovered. W ithin a very short tim e now the m ost im portant case of- all affecting th e New D eal will be decided. I refer to the so-called gold c ase s.. Five ques- .tfons are before the court and if it decides adversely to the governm ent’s claim on any of them , the m onetary policy upon which the New Deal has beeeh operating becomes virtually null and void. T be court heard lengthy argum ents by high powered law yers on the p art of the governm ent and on . the p art o f private citizens who claim th a t their rights have been abridged by the Roosevelt money policies and they naturally a re seeking redress. No one dares to m ake a prediction concerning pending action by the Su­ prem e court. It can be only a guess a t any tim e in advance of a' rule by th a t group of m en because w ith One or tw o exceptions since the nation w as founded, its decisions have ^ never leaked out ahead of the tim e they are form ally handed down from the bench. Law yers throughout the land are w atching and w aiting for the court’s findings. But- the m ost fidgety-of all law yers are those in the governm ent who recognize to a ta n adverse decision by the court will flatten out th e New Deal and force a w holesale revision of policies. I am told th at this groUp of law yers is none toO certain o f its ground. - True, they m ade w hat is rec­ ognized as a strong argum ent in sup­ port of the governm ent’s position but th e difficulty seem s to be from their standpoint that, the Constitution w as w ritten before the__brain trust came Into action and the C onstitution itself provides the only ways by which it m ay be changed. Brain tru st ideas,' however "good they may be, necessarily are w orthless and useless if they con­ travene the basic provisions of the Constitution to which the nation ad­ heres. • . '**.*. Among the questions before the Su­ prem e court in the gold cases, th at one brought forw ard Im p o r ta n t by a - suit to com- Q a e s tio n . pel the governm ent to pay gold in re­ deem ing one of its own bonds is by far the m ost im portant Indeed, that case can be said to have an ove'rwhelming- lm portance. T f the court rules' that the governm ent cannot void its con­ tract—for a bond is generally recog­ nized. as a contract—to pay back the borrowed money under the term named In that bond, then th e seizure of ;gnld by toe governm ent in 1933 Uker w ise' is voided. In other wordsi every person .holding a governm ent bond containing a prom ise to pay In gold Is entitled to have that gold from the treasury. It takes no stretch of the im agination to .se e w hat effect that: w ill h a v e'o h the whole money program . . . • _ - ~ - - .Likewise, if the court determines that an Individual Urho has promised to pay In gold must observe toe term's of that agreemeiiL toe administration In again In a hole, since contracts agreements or bonds containing tim promise, to pay in gold are in general use and have been written iihce time immemorial toe amount of such pay­ ments is virtually incalculable.

I t happened som e tim e ago b u t it should be called to the notice of all who didn’t take notice and to rem ind those who saw, th at m otor vehicle killings got sCbig send off fo r the , new year when six persons died in one crash—a crash th a t wasn’t an accident th a t the driver w as drink­ ing and the m achine he couldn’t guide crashed into a bridge abutm ent near W ake Forest, and scattered seven broken bodies about the pre­ mises. F o u r—three boys and a girl —m et instant death. Two girls d ied in a short tim e. A nother girl, badly injured, is recovering. W hen the coroner got to the wreck he found th at a q u art bottle, partial­ ly filled w ith liquor, was not broken. The consuhjed consumed contents had precipitated the w reck but the bottle was the only thing saved whole o u t of the c a r—the car demolished, six of the sgven occupants dead and the Beventhseriously h u rt. Clayton Mizzelle wad listed as the driver o f the car. From her hospital bed Levora Grim es, the only survivor of of the w reck, told her m other th at she know th at Mizzelle was under th e influence of-Jiquor and unfit to drive and th at she begged him re- ' peatedly to let her fake his place at the wneel. W ith the assurance of the drinker who feels his liquor he Insisted th a t he could drive the car. H e did—straight into the bridge a- butm ent and to death for himself and five associates. The young woman who begged fo r the wheel . Said she knew they were going to hit the bridge b u t all in the car were helpless w ith a drinking driver at thew heel. Which deepens the strain of blood on the hands of all judges who fail and refuse to so punish drinking dirivers as to m ake them realize that the com bination of driving-drinking is potential m urder and that it is the business of the court to do some­ thing to prevent the killing th at is in the offing when the drinker is at thew heel. T h erea re other causes of wrecks, of course. B ut in none is the opportunity so presented to adm inister advance treatm ent that ihay check the disease before it runs its natural course as in dealing w ith drinking drivers. Tbe judges who are So considerate of these potential killers m ay be able to sleep when they realize w hat the consideration m ay lead to, as exemplified in the .W ake Forest horror. They may be able to sleep b u t one wonders w hat so rt of consciences they have if they -are not disturbed by their possible contribution to the killings. If the paym ents of fines doesn't, especially if he is given a year or two pay and may: never pay in full if a t all, prison and road cam p sentences would te m ore effective.—Statesville Dailv.

HilPs Wet Bill Rapped By Burgess. R a'eigli ,— D eclaring the state cintrol liquor bill of Senator John S prunt H ill of D urham , to be “ a colossal com bination of inconsist enceies,” Cale K . Burgess, secre tary of the U nited D ry Forces o’ N orth Carolina, tod<iy placed hi> organization squarely in opposition to the m easure. vT h e.U nited Dry Forces, as an organization, is credited w ith hold ing the state in dry ranks in 1933 by a m ajority of alm ost 200,000. Burgess pointed out seven in stances in w hich he said the bill is “ inconsistent and m isleading.” F irst of these, he said, is in t! e statem ent by Senator H ill, him self, long a m ilitant dry, th at the bill ‘ has been draw n uo by a group of driys.” ■. ‘‘W hen a person lines up with the liquor crow d,” Burgess declar ed; “ and advocates th at our state become a w hisky dealer, he ceases to he a d ry .” ,".The second alleged inconsistency 'is-fouad in the declaration by Sen­ ato r H ill th at the bill is presented “ for the protection of the public w elfare, health, peace and m orals of the people of the state.” T he w ettest of the w ets,” B ur­ gess said, “ do not pretend th at the .sale' o r use of w hisky ever prom otes feithSr th e public w elfare, bealtb, peace or m orals of any com m unity or state. .. ..v'Sffeither the seualor’s blessings notifhe great seal of the state will '^jEllgfektIiej u atu re or the harmful effe’cts of alcohol ” A third inconsistency is found by Burgess in the statem ent of Senator H iil that proceeds from the sale of alcoholic beverages by the state could be used for relief purposes, ‘m ost, of the dem ands for which can be directly traced to the -use of alcoholic liquors ” T his, declared Burgess, is tantam ount to an invi­ tation to cast oil oh a fire to extin­ guish it T he revenueproducuonclause of the bill draw s fire from another angle. “ It is a gem of inconsistences,” he said, 'M o legalize a business that h universally adm itted to be harm ­ ful .'in order to provide another form of sales ta x ” when m any feel “ it is regrettable th at the state deem s it necessary to impose a sales tax on the necessities of life ” T w o inconsistences are seen bv Burgess in lhe fact th at the bill does not provide for m anufacture of alcoholic beverage in the state but only for its sale, and in its pur­ pose to elim inate the bootlegger T he form er, he said, lies in the effect of the liquor bill in forcing put chase'of liquor in other states. T he second is th a t the bill would not put the bootlegger out ot busi­ ness any m ore than prohibition has done, he dared. Asks Increase In Cot­ ton Tax W ashington. — Increase of the cotton'.processing tax to raise the c’om estic price to 20 cents a pound was-.advised bv J. E .

T he present internal price is 12 ^ cents,.four cents ot w hich is made .up by the processing tax. "'This is s >mewhat above the world price -S enator John H .

I - E xcess production of cotton, Mc i Donald said, could be sold abroad production or at aprofit ” Brought Shame To His “ Well, th at's the last tim e I'm go­ ing to be seen in a court room on j- charge arising through my us,- < , car. My father has enough troubles w ithout being bothered by m ine ” It was young Franklin Roosevelt son of the President, talking, wher he paid a fine of $10 and cost in th> court a t O range,' C onn, having pleaded guiitv to speeding and run­ ning under a red light. Incident!) the judge told the young m an tha' HO was the m inim um fine One re oort says young Roosevelt wai ' royally entertained” and Judgt A oodruft, th at the judge drove him to court and later took him to hi- home for dinner. It is not intim at. ed th at the fine was refunded Bui the court officers evidently felt that they w ere called to show the.son of the President of the U nited States unusual consideration, which is not to their c re d i\ The P resid en t's soi is no m ore than John Sm ith’s son when he appears in the role of law violator: and in this respect young Roosevelt has been a grievous offend­ er. This was h;s third arrest in Con­ necticut for traffic violations. While the last case was pending he ran in­ to another car in Pennsylvania and injured a m an. H ebad been arrest­ ed two-tbreej tim es in M assachusetts, also in Rhode Island and probabl.v other S tates,. fo r fast or reckless driving. L ast M arch he reported to Boston police th at his car had struck a woman and he carried her to the hospital. A dam age suit for $25,000 i3.now pending on th at count. In short this Roosevelt boy had been helling around this country in his car, the sam e as millions of other young3ter_-and had dem onstrated hi^ car, the sam e as millions' o f othei youngsters, and had dem onstrated his u tter unfitness to be trusted with a m otor vehicle, H is conduct war putting his father to open shame. He has a t last come to, or been brought to, th at realization, judging by his rem arks a t O range. It took quite a spell for him to get the understanding th at the misconduct cf the son of the President was an em barrassm ent to his daddy, who it to trjin g to govern the country and was put to sham e by his own off­ spring as unable to govern his own Household. W hether a stssion with his pa and m a or both helped the youngster to an understanding is oniy a guess, but that, considering the record of a year or m ore, wa; long past due. It should be said, however, th at so far as appears no leniency was asked fi r the youngst­ er by his folks. A W hite House se­ cretary and Mrs.' Roosevelt wrote the prosecutor a t O range asking for a postponem ent of the trial for con­ venience, since the young m an' was stqdent a t H arvard.- N othing wrong in th at of itself and it is distinctly stated th a t Mrs. Roosevelt didn’t ask leniency for her son. T here w.as no need for that. It appears that traffic court officials throughout the county had encouraged the boy to do his w orst by letting him off light and all b u t' apologizing to him for calling him to account, as was the case a t O range. -Since a law breaker is a law breaker regardless of his pa and m a or their position socially or officially, and should always be treat­ ed by people who have conception of w hat is required, the court 0lficialt- who have any conception of w hat i? required, the conception of w hat if required, the court offi-ials wh- played up to the Roosevelt boy sim . ply because he was the President’s son dem onstrated by their subser­ viency their unfitness to adm inister the law who take note of the per­ sons of violators com ing into their court are not to be trusted out o f sight, if you ask us. T he subser- viehncv. the bootlicking of promir,- ence, moves to rem arks th at couldn’t pass the censor. One feels like bust­ ing som ething to relieve his feelings. .. O f; course th at Roosevelt boy should have been depried of. his car .by his daddy long ago, or the . Presi­ dent should have requested th at the States in which the youngster w ent tearing around a t :70 per hour and! running ander red lights check him iy depriving him .of license fo r th at ourpose.. The incident m ay pass V itlnut further notice if the junior Franklin adheres to his announced ■urpose to.stay nff cars for the tim e. Probably his daddy got ..that under _ Vis fiiide. Wes would believe th at he iid. But being Fresident o f the United ■States, and highly and m ost worthily icclaimed, isn’t per se evidence th at i parent is fit to handle his offspring. In fact m ost parentR reserve to them- lelves the privilege of being fools >ver their children. They are ready 0 Sght if their children are intai- 'ered w ith, even for puDlic protec­ tion, for no reason except that the youngsters are their.'cffspring. They ion’t control them and if the law in ervenes to protect the public the jyrents m ore than often act as if their youngsters were being prose­ cuted. They do their best to help their children to ja il' or worse, and - when the w orst is reached the par­ ents seem to feel they are entitled to oublic sym pathy. W hat is their due is condem nation for contributing tu f.he delinquency of the children. Re­ fusal to control their hard-boiled off­ spring and using all they have to ttve tdem from the law is about the oiggest contribution there is to the prevailing lawlessness and lack of respect ?or authority. • Which everybody knows, but pai- t>nts of recklsss and crim inal youngs­ ters would endure alm ost anything oefore they would adm it th at theirs should be handled. Occasionally there are sensible parents who can recognize w hat is due their lawless children as well as other folks’ child­ ren and they ask no exceptions. But this type is a m ost rare even if a re­ freshing exception— The Statesville Daily. _....... . ; ■ •, - ■ -. V Officers.

For the first group I have the utm ost re­ spect, as I do fpr all who have the courage of a strong conviction B ut also there is within me a certain pity for those who cannot see th at after alt tnere may be another way. For the second group,, those who would repeal for the sake of reve­ nue, I have only the utm ost con­ tem pt. They would sell their broth­ ers’ soul, and incidentally their own, for m ore taxes, so as to have - m ore money so th at there m ight be m ore chance of graft.

To them I'm ake the earnest reques th at they think it, th ro u g h before passing any opinion. Briefly stated here is my proposal: 1.

It shall be a felony for anyone to drive a m otor vehicle under in­ fluence of alcohol. Any one convict­ ed of above m entioned felony shall be punished by not m ore than ten years a t bard labor in the S tate Peni- tentary.

If you are interested in a fair for Davie, attend this m eeting, or Iet- tbe fair officials know that von w ant a fair.

T he farm ers of the U . S are be­ ing given an opportunity to sign the 1935 Corn H og C ontract T he 1934 C ontract was for only one year, therefore those contract sign­ ers w ho "wish to draw benefits from the 1935 contracts m ust sign again using the sam e base as of the • 1934 contract. N ew producers who wisb to sign are advised to get all avail able inform ation possible before m aking application as they will have to subm it evidence before their contracts can be draw n up and ap ­ proved. Benefits this year will be sm aller th a i last year because of greater production allowed on both corn and • hogs. T b e m axim um corn acreage allowed in 1935 is 90 per­ cent of the base and a m inim um of. 70 percent of the bate T he corn paym ents will be at a rate of 35 cents per busbel of yield estim ated for the num ber of acres by which the 1935 corn land acre is kept be­ low the 1932 ’33 average. T he con­ tracted acres m ay be any part of the farm and no restrictions, are placed upon its use other than it is not to be used in the production of a basic com m odity or grain crop unless grain crop is to be used be­ fore m aturity. T he hog paym ent will be $15 00 per head on 10 percent of the base. T his allows the sale of more hogs than in 1934 , but a reduction in benefits. Davie C ounty farnjejrs w ho had a 1934 C orn-H og contract and w ant a 1935 contract, and the farm ers who wish to sign the 1935 contract for the first tim e will have three days to do this in.

And Happy; Jack, not concerned enough to stop his whistling, w as sacking, his utensils. Hays made for the notch In the bluff w est of the cabin. Jlm sprang Into action, while Smoky dashed off toward the cottonwood grove. Upon Jim ’s first return trip from the cave he encountered the girl bur­ dened w ith her effects. “Helen, I’ll carry th a t Hurry. We’ve no tim e to lose.” A t the back of !the cave there -was a crack deep enough to protect Helen. H e directed her to hide Inside and aw ait developments. Jlm ran on tow ard the camp, re­ solving to w ithhold a. shell In his.rifle and to keep a sharp w atch on H kya T he next quarter of an hour was filled w ith strenuous and unceasing ac­ tion. T heir united efforts collected all the supplies, utensils, saddles and packs, and several of the beds in the three-cornered cave back and to one side of the shack. A huge slab of stone lay across the top of this triangular notch In the cliff. The wall had been hollowed by the action of w ater. A sm all stream flowed out from the base of th e wail. . , ,It w as the best.place for defense In the oval, and Jim believed Hays outfit could hold It Indefinitely, though they couldn’t save the horses. H it cam e -to a siege they could be re­ leased. CHAPTER X Smoky cam e parting In with Hays’ pack, ana-S tarted oft aSain- _ “That’S" enough, Smoky, _ called Jim , Slocum returned. “Nothin’ left— ’cept H ank’s bed,” he panted. “I - couldn’t—locate th e t” “L isten!” ' “W hat do you hear?” “H osses." • , .___Jfct. “Jlm . keep your eye peeled on the cliff," said Smoky, and stole forw ard und«r cover 6t the.brush. Presently a w hite poll of smoke - showed above the ragged rim. Spangl The fight w as on. One of Hays’ meat —Bridges—let out a hoarse bawl and swayed over, alm ost losing his bal­ ance. Jlm looked no more a t him, but concentrated his gaze on the rim. An­ other puff of w hite! Something dark— a man’s slouch hat—bobbed up. Jim ’s rifle, already raised, swerved a trifle - cracked. The hat w ent flying.. The horses came over the bench, frightened, but not stam peding, and Mac drove them into 'th e corral. This w as around the corner from the range of the sharpshooter of the rim. Bridges, reeling on the horse, followed Mac, who ran out of the corral • to catch him as he felL Then, as they came along close to the wall, Hays arrived from the other direction. “Heeseman—with his outfit—nine In all,” he heaved. “They’re scatterin’ to surround the roost. . . . B ut they can’t cross—below us—an* across there it’s —out of range. . . . We’re all rig h t” ‘ A bullet thudded Into the wall, fol­ lowed by the report of .a rifle*. “Duck back! T hat was from soma- where else,” shouted Hays. They dove tw enty feet*farther back. H ere they were apparently safe, ex­ cept from the grassy ridge of the oval in front, which it w as unlikely any sharpshooters could reach In daylight A fter a careful study Jim crept Into the brush, stirred by a renewal of Bring from the west rim. W lsps of w hite cloud, thinning on the light wind, located the positions of the shooters. F irst Jim peered through the growth of brush directly In front. Almost a t once he caught a move­ m ent of a dark object through a crev­ ice In the rim. The distance w as great for accurate shooting at so small a target. B ut with a rest he drew a coarse, steady aim and fired once. The object flopped over. A shrill cry, unm istakable to any man used to gunplay, rent the air. Jlm knew he had reached one of the Heeseman gang, to disable him, if no more. Next instan t a raking fire swept the brush on both sides of Jim . H e dropped down into the cave. Smoky stood there, In the act of climbing. “They near got me,” rang out Jim. “I h it one of them way over where they shot at Bridges. There’s a bunch of them hid on th at cliff to the right of the outlet, you know, where Jeff w ent up to scout.” “Jim, they got us located," replied Slocum, gravely. “Sure. B ut so long as they can’t line on us in- here—" “They can move all around. An’ pretty soon Heeseman will figger thet men behind the high center In front can shoot straight In hyar.” “They’re below the rldge now. Look sharp, Smoky, or they m ight get a couple of shots In first’’ “Wal, If they do I hope both bullets lodge In H ank’s gizzard.” “My sentim ents exactly. . . . Smoky, I saw something shine. Tip of a rifle; Right—to the right. . . . A h!” "Take the first feller, Jlm . . . One —two—three.” The rifles cracked In. unison. Jim ’s m ark sprang convulsively up, and plunged down to roil and weave out of sight. The m an Smoky had. shot at sank flat and la y still. Next moment a volley banged from the cliff and a storm of bullets swept hissing and spanging uncomfortably close. Jim slid and leaped to the floor of the cave below. Smoky, by lying down, lowered the rifles to him, ano then came scrambling after. H ays had slouched back to them followed by Happy. “Jack, glmine Jeff’s gun an’ belt,'1 S ays said, and receiving them, he buckled them over his own. Next he opened his pack to take out a box of rifle shells, which he broke ope* ts drop* the contents I n 'his coat pocket on the left side. A fter that he opened ■ his shirt to strip off a broad, black money b e lt This w as w hat had made him bulge so and give the Impression of stoutness, when In fact he was lean. He hung this belt over a project­ ing point of wall. “In case I don’t git back,” he added. “An* there’s a bundle of chicken-feed change in my pack.” T here ,w as something gloomy and splendid about him then. Fear of God, or man, or death w as not In him. Rifle In hand he crept to the corner on the left and boldly exposed him­ self, draw ing a volley of shots from two quarters. Then he disappeared. “W hat’s Hays’ idea?’ asked Jim. “H e m ust know a way to sneafc around on them.” A metallic, spanging • sound accom­ panied rather than followed by a shot, then, a sodden thud . right at_ hand choked further speech. Happy Jack had been cut short In one of his low whistles. He swayed a second upright, then uttering an-aw ful groan, he fell Smoky leaped to him, bent over. .“D ead! H it In the tem ple. W here’d thet bullet come from?” ■ “It gianced from a rock. I know the sound.” “Jim , the only safe place from thet —Is hyar, huggin’ this corner,” de- ' dared Smoky. “An’ there ain’t room enough fer the two of us.” “Keep it, Smoky. I’m not going to get hit. This is my day. I feel some­ thing. In my bones, but It’s not death.” “Huh. I feel somethin’ too—clear to my marrow—an’ it’s slcklsh an’ cold. . . . Jim , I’ll sneak o u t an ' craw l back of them.

Ach, I will tell you why Schumann- Helnk spends Christm as Eve alone. She rose to her feet. The bare, cold walls of her theater dressing room were flooded with the richness of her warm personality. Sight years ago this Christm as Eve I was In Chicago. W hen I returned to my hotel room, overlooking the lake, night had come, The room was dark. I sat by the window. From my chair I could look out over Michigan avenue into a park beyond. In the park I saw a great Christm as tree. It was beauti­ ful, a giant evergreen, a hundred feet or more. Out of the night it brought me memories of other days when my children v^gre young. “As I looked at it, I began to pray, and I cried, I prayed to God to take care of my children who could not be with -me this night ■ “I prayed to him to do just one thing for me this night.

If he would only let me see those two -dear boys—once again., “As I prayed there came a cold wind against my cheek, just as though some one had opened an outside door. Quick, I wiped away my tears because I thought some one was coming into the room. “I looked up. Before me were the faces of my boys, my H ans and my A ugust!

P. B. FITZWATER, D. IX. Member of Faculty. Moody Bibl*• Institute of Chicago.)Q. Western Newspaper Unloe. Lesson for February 17 PETER TEACHES GOOD CITIZEN. SHIP LESSON TEXT—I Peter 8:11-17; 4:1-5.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP- IC—What Makes a Good Citizen. TOONG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—Responsibilities of a Good Citizen. In order to get an intelligent grasp of today's lesson one must get a view of the entire Epistle as to its purpose and- method. The purpose was to estab­ lish all who were passing through suffering and testing (see 1:7; 3:14; 4:12; 5:10-12). The principles of Christian behavior set forth In this text are of a broader scope tlmu citizenship. They embrace, I. Behavior as Pilgrims and So­ journers (w . 11, 12). Christians are really sojourners on the earth. They have not their per­ manent home here. " Tliey are journey­ ing through the earth on their way to their eternal home in the heavens. Their heavenly citizenship (Phil. 3:20) should constrain them to the mainte­ nance of conduct consistent with their high calling. 1. Abstain from fleshly lusts (v. 11). The term “lusts” here includes the en­ tire army of unclean forces springing from our carnal natures: They are enumerated In Galatians 5:19-21. 2. Behavior among the Gentiles or heathen (v. 12). The word conversa­ tion here ineans behavior. Christians are under obligation to so live as to render it impossible for the world to speak evil against them as evil-doers. II. Behavior as Citizens (w . 13-17). While the Christian’s true citizenship is In heaven, he has a responsibility ,as a citizen on the earth during his earth­ ly sojourn. He should be Ia submis­ sion to properly constituted author­ ity. 1. Obey all requirements of civil rulers (v. 13). Fidelity to Christ is shown by loyalty to civil authority. The intelligent Christian recognizes the necessity of government and gra­ ciously submits to those In authority over him, regardless of the form of governm ent His duties as a citizen he performs as the Lord’s free man, not through servile fear. Government ,,even of a low order Is better than an­ archy. Free submission to govern­ mental authority puts to silence the ignorance of foolish men (vv. IS^ 10). 2. Honor ail men (v ., 17). The Christian sees in every man the image of God and will; therefore, give him the honor due him. This applies to all relations wherein we touch human life 3. Love the brotherhood (v. 17). The brotherhood is composed of those who are children of God by faitb In Jesus C hrist 4. Fear God (v. 17). This means to recognize God’s sovereignty, righteous­ ness, and holiness, and properly to rev­ erence him. 5. Honor the king.(v. 17). This had a peculiar significance a t the time this was written, because In ail prob­ ability the wicked Nero was then reign­ ing as the emperor. III. Behavior in a World of Oppo­ sition (I P e t 4:1-5). 1. Arm for the conflict (v. I). Chris­ tians are engaged in a tremendous con­ flict with evil forces within and with­ o u t Satan and his angels are bent on the believers’ defeat and destruction. 2. The salutary effect of suffering (v. I); Suffering has a' remedial ef-- foct upon God’s children. The one who suffers with Christ as an example will have the consciousness that it is. his identity with Christ that calls forth the opposition of the world. 3. God’s will the regulating force of his life (v. 2). The will of God, not the lusts of the flesh. Is the directing force of the believer's, life. ' 4. - The consciousness .of a wasted life (v. 3). Looking back upon a wasted life in serving the lusts of the flesh will move one to give no more time to serving such a master. 5. The attitude of the world toward the one who separates himself from U (v. 4). The world speaks evil of those who will not go Its way. The world not only wonders at the life of the Christian who separates -himself from its pleasures, such as dancing, card playing, wine drinking, etc., but will heap upon Uml nicknames of reproach. 6. Account shall be given (v. 5). The Christian should so live as to be able to render a good account to God. .. Fellowsliip With God Every mental movement and re­ ligious activity of life should be 'a heartfelt plea for deeper and sweeter fellowship with God. Need of the Day The greatest need of today la a renaissance of character among the people of this distracted earth ; a ren­ aissance of that quality of character which recognizes obligations as an honest man recognizes his debts, apd of the quality of faith that gives ^us the desire and the courage to help in­ stead of to hide.

C1 J rt- News Review of Current Events the World Over « Grand Jury Asked by Ickes to Investigate PWA Graft Charges*—Future of NRA Hangs Upon Outcome o f Snit Against Little Sawmill Operator. By EDWARD W. PICKARD ©, Western Newspaper Union. «p j ONEST- HAROLD” Secy IcKes Ickes has been subjected to lots of abuse by congressmen and others, but he does not intend to let.anything be put oyer on the Public W orks a d m in is tra tio n , of which he is the admin­ istrator. At bis re­ quest a special grand jury has been sum- m o n e d to meet In W ashington on Feb- uary 6 to inquire into charges of graft in the PWA. Assistant United ’States Attor­ ney John W. FihelIy has the m atter In hand for the government and will present, flrst testimony concerning the $4,000,000 canal project in Texas, ft was asserted that the contract for this project was withdrawn after Mr. Ickes’ investigators bad un­ covered evidence that there was a huge conspiracy to defraud the United States Eight or ten persons, includ­ ing federal officials, are said to be in­ volved. Mr. Ickes himself said: “The Public Works administration in­ vestigation division has made a long and careful study of the Texas project upon the direction of the adm inistrator (Ickes) and presented to the proper prosecuting officials of the government a full report for such 'action as they deem proper to ta k a ” This Texas case may consume sev­ eral weeks, and afterw ard the grand Jury is expected to investigate some other projects and also charges of fraud In the W ar department. A !,MOST unnoticed among the spec- . tacular issues of the day. yet of momentous importance, the case of the United States against Belcher will be set for hearing by the Supreme court within a few days. This case opens up discussion on the constitu­ tionality of the heart of the entire NRA experiment—the power of the federal government to regulate wages and working hours through codes. Upon this refusal of a small Ala­ bama sawmill operator to comply with the code hangs the entire fate of the NRA, for if the government loses there will be nothing left of NRA except an empty statem ent of desirable business ethics. Tf the. government cannot con­ trol wages and hours In the produc­ tion of goods intended for interstate commerce, there is a strong likelihood that the course of legislation to extend the NRA beyond June 16 will be strong­ ly affected. O ther cases now pending before the court touch upon certain portions of the-vital question, but this case goes straight to the basic power of the recovery a c t It affords a clear- cut determination of the fundamental Issues, because there is no dispute as to facts, no technicalities of law upon which the Issiie can be avoided. The case comes almost, as an original case, since the attorney general took advan­ tage of legal machinery permitting an appeal directly to the Supreme court from the, decision of a federal D istrict court without recourse to a "Court Ot Appeals. The defendant openly violated the lumber code. Instead of adhering to code provision requiring payment of 24 cents per hour for a 40-hour maximum week, he admitted paying his men 10 to 15 cents per hour and that he worked them as many hours as he saw fit' W hat the government’s line of- de­ fense will be is not known. The case Involves all the constitutional objec­ tions which might be raised against the: recovery a c t Decisions of the court; ’ In the recent oil cases did not touch- upon the constitutionality of the main body of the .act, but Involved only a special section. * WHEN the senate passes the $4,- 000,000,000 work relief measure, as it certainly will after, all the ora­ tors get through, there need be no fussing as to. who is to adm inister the bilge fund. President Roosevelt him­ self, according in an authority high in adm inistration circles, will undertake that job and will allocate1 the money to the various agencies as be sees fit. There will be no new set-up for this purpose, unless it' may be a small group of -advisors selected by Mr. Roosevelt. T htse may be members of the cabinet or technical experts—more Ukely the li-ter. This' information was given the' senate finance committee as it be­ gan consideration of the bill, and was designed to quiet some of the opposi­ tion and also to curb the ambition' of certain gentlemen who -had hoped to hhhdle- the $4,OOOJKM),0O0. It did not, however, silence those senators Of both parties who still contend that too much power is given the President when, he Is handed-such a vast sum to dis­ pose of as he pleases. • A Btrohg possibility is seen that-the bill may be split into two separate parts, so that the 880 million dollars needed for relief purposes niay be passed without; delay, and the, senate can then take its tim e In considering the' extraordinary’ measure; which' giveB the President such 'unprecedented pow­ ers *n spending the four billion dollars. Part of the money may be used To put the government Into the filling sta­ tion business, Senator Elmer' Thomas (Dem., Okla.) revealed. Gasoline sta­ tions may -be erected along “self- liquidating” highways,, he said. The government may also purchase land ad­ joining these highways and improve it with houses for rent or sale. Litfle hope is seen in reporting the measure out before February 10 when the relief funds on hand will expire. The only hope of meeting this emer­ gency, it is pointed out, is In the pos­ sible segregation of the 880 million dollar cash relief provision from the main bill.. One development which was of inter­ est to many was that the measure was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Bell, the budget director, thus making him a candidate for the "physical hang­ ing” advocated by Senator Jam es Cou- zens of Michigan. tpEARING the anger of their aroused " constituents more than, the adminis­ tration’s whip, the senate kicked over the traces to defeat ratification of the world court protocols. The final count was seven votes short of the necessary two-thirds. Frantic efforts to force the measure through were made by the adm inistra­ tion. Several revolting senators were called to the White. House, and the President even agreed to . amendments to the resolution, but was unable to overcome the effects of thousands of protesting; telegrams which had been pouring into W ashington from citizens all over the country. In private, many Democratic sena­ tors who face re-election in 1936 heaved sighs of relief as the measure was de­ feated. Administration forces accepted the verdict, apparently without rancor, although the long memory of the man In the W hite House is well known. Seemingly the issue is dead, for the present at least. S enator. William Borah, who with Senator Hiram Johnson, led the at­ tack on ratification, was jubilant over the outcome, declaring that It was a great victory for the American people and for this country’s traditional policy of keeping aloof from foreign entanglements. Observers at the capital refused to view the world court vote as any in­ dication of a spreading revolt against Roosevelt’s policies, since the court controversy cut deeper than party lines. Several senators who opposed the tribunal will undoubtedly support the administration on. other measures, although victory of the. small hand of irreconcilahies who led the fight has undoubtedly added to their prestige. ►j-tHOSE who view Russia’s,-growing I - m ilitary strength wjtb alarm were not comforted by a statem ent made by the vice commissar for. defense before the seventh All-Umon congress of Soviets In Moscow that the-R ed army has grown from 600,000 to 940,000 men in four years. Fortifications along the eastern and western frontiers have been strength­ ened, and all branches o f the. m ilitary service, particularly aviation, have been’ Increased, the vice .commissar stated; and more will be spent for de­ fense In 1935 than was spent last year. The delegates, who were meeting' to re­ view Bolshevist progress since 1031, greeted the vice commissar’s speech with roars of applause. IN AN effort to build up an alibi for Bruno Richard Hauptmann his at­ torneys have called a strange collect ti'on of witnesses—a minor league boot­ legger, a speakeasy op­ erator o f var Ious names, a young Swede whose sto r I e s have been. somewhat vague and conflicting, and a man who has admitted th at he served several jail sentences—a not particularly Impressive lot upon which to de­ pend when you are fighting to e s c a p_e death In the electric chair, One of the peculiarities of the trial Is the number of persons who only saw Hauptmann for a . few minutes or sec­ onds, but who are able to identify him more than two years later. The man accused of killing the first Lindbergh child is not outstanding in appearance or one who. would be likely to indel­ ibly impress himself on a person’s mind, but both the state and the de­ fense have been able to produce per­ sons who swear he was the man they saw the day the crime was committed, The baffle of handwriting experts has also begun, with the state pro­ ducing experts to swear that the hand­ writing on the ransom notes does not resemble that on the admitted writing of Hauptmann. Their statem ents are just as positive a£ were those made by the defense witnesses, and it all proves just a little confusing to the jury. { Considerable comment was caused when one of the jurors, a woman, smiled broadly at Hauptmann as he left the stand following his exam ina­ tion, and some wagers have been made that a hung jury will be the outcome of the trial. Such predictions are hardly In order, since a single bit of testimony may yet change the entire course of the case.

Two hundred armed men, directed by lead ers of the Square Deal association, seized the parish court house in East Baton Rouge and held it un­ til assured that one of their friends who had been arrested was re­ leased. They . then dispersed with a warning from one John Appel to “be sure you have enough ammunition: and be ready for the call at any time.” The Kingfisfi was In New Orleans at the time, but be hastened to Baton Rouge while Governor Allen called out some troops and proclaimed partial m artial law in the. capital. Huey im­ mediately ordered the - recently ap­ pointed .Judge J. D. Womack to start ah investigation of what he de­ scribed as a plot to m urder him, in which “four sheriffs and a district at­ torney” w ere■ involved. The senator declared: “W e picked up two men, one of them was going to drive the murder car. it was all fixed up; -B e 'was going to block my car on the highway - between here and New. Orleans;' make if stop and force me in the ditch, and then 14- or 16 were going to come along in an­ other-car and kill me. “We found all the stuff in the fel­ low’s car. There was sheriff’s equip­ ment, and everything.” : , Maybe Huey was right, for one Sid­ ney Songy testified at the inquiry'that he had been given a' gun, , ammunition and gas bombs to Mil the,senator. Long, blamed the Standard Oil com­ pany for the armed assembly of his. enemies in Baton: Rouge and ''said that unless the company stopped The “vio­ lence” his compromise with it over the 5-cent oil refinery Tax would be called off. . . Despite this warning another'arm ed group of. Square Dealers gathered at the Baton Rouge air field; but-som e­ one betrayed them and'a ' detachment of the National Guard advanced on; them In battle array. The sight of m achine, guns was enough for ' the citizenry; they surrendered, and were disarmed DURING the debate In the house on an adm inistration bill to increase by $9,000,000,006 the amount of long: term securities the treasury .can issue.- Representative Reed ol New York quot­ ed Secretary M orgentbau as shying that the treasury could not finance the work relief program unless congress broad ened its bond-issuing authority. So the house passed the .measure a t once. The bill, prepared by the Treasury departm ent, Maces the adm inistration squarely against inflation. . It provides authority to raise money necessary for the public works, social security and sim ilar measures, meet federal deficits, and might even be used to provide funds for payment of the soldiers' bonus. Under provisions of the measure there would be ten-year bonds in am ounts as small as $25, and as ex­ plained by the Treasury department, would be sold below par. There would be no interest, but each six months the bonds would appreciate In value al the rate, of ‘2% per cent, plus com pounded earnings. . Htige sums are involved: first, the creation of a revolving bond authoriza­ tion fund of $2,500,000,000; and sec­ ond, the consolidation of the two pres­ ent revolving- funds of $10,000,000,000 each into a joint $20,000,000,000 fund for bills, certificates, and notes.

C.National Preas Building W ashington.—A t last after yuars oftalking, a social's e jr ity p r o ^ Social - And now th at it Is • C dm iritv before congressSecarAy Jhere ls a brand new outburst of talk, because It seem s the “social securers” never can a8*e® among themselves. The result is that leadership In tBe house , and In the senate is trying vainly to follow ad­ m inistration instructions, and has run afoul of all kinds of difficulties. The end is not yet, but it Is safe to say w ithout fear of any necessity for re­ traction th a t the social security pro­ gram will not go back to President Roosevelt- as a law in the form it w as presented as an adm inistration bill. I find everyw here among those not charged with responsibility for the so­ cial security legislation th at there Is much confusion and lack of under­ standing a s to w hat the President has proposed. It is easily understood. Any tim e th at it requires thirty thousand words, to explain a piece of legisla­ tion obviously th at legislation m ust be-complex. To com prehend w hat the length of Mr. Roosevelt’s social se­ curity m essage Is, J t is only neces­ sary; I think, to rem ind readers that the m essage w ith its explanation of the legislation would fill approxim ate­ ly thirty-five columns of an ordinary new spaper. M any persons naturally w ill fall asleep before they w ade through th at much m aterial. But, let us attem pt to sum m arize the social security bill.'- It provides, first, for a national] s y ste m o f com­ pulsory contributory old. age insur­ ance; second, it authorizes appropria­ tions to be used a s federal subsidies (plain gifts) to the individual states to help them pension the aged who cannot be brought under -ah-.insur­ ance system predicated upon their' service in commerce and industry and, third, a voluntary system of-Old age annuities is set up. T he system of compulsory contribu­ tory old age Insurance is designed to protect those who. are. no longer able to work but who have done their turn on the payrolls of industry. Ah old age fund is set up In. the T reasury of the United- States. . Initially, the money comes from the T reasury but thereafter there is a tax operating on payrolls of all. those who employ w orkers in num bers exceeding four. T his tax . will start January I, 1937, at a ra te of I per c e n t It.is Increased to 2 -per cent as of January I, 1492; 3 per cent as of January I, 1947 ; 4 per cent as of January I, 1952, and 5 per cent after January I, 1957. The em­ ployer pays the tax but he 'collects h alf of it by- a. deduction from the payroll of the individual worker. The age . of sixty-five years is .fixed as the tim e when a w orker shall re­ tire and receive this pension. T he pen­ sioner can receive as much as $30 a month. If the Individual dies before retirem ent, his* dependents receive back the am ount paid in in his behalf. As a • p art of th e . old age pension system the legislation sets np. an old age fund in which - w orkers may. pur­ chase'an annuity but they never- may acquire more than a total of $9,000 m aturity value—the ultim ate' am ount —,from which their income may be In­ creased. Then - there is tbe much discussed unemployment Insurance. Thil'- also is predicated' upon a tax on industrial payrolls but it is a state proposition. T hat is, the federal governm ent Is at­ tem pting to encourage individual states to enact, legislation which will protect the w orker in periods such as that through whiCh we have passed since 1929. In other words, this phase of the legislation is'designed to cause w orkers and their employers to lay • aside a certain . percentage' of . their income While they are employed, to be used when tim es are .bard. There are countless subdivisions In tfie bill, none of- which are simple, th at seek tb protect the m any who' for one reason Or another dO' not qualify under the general term s of the legisla­ tion. For. instance, aid to dependent children is ptOvided! Federal health subsidies-—-a kind* of health insurance —Is proposed; M aternal aid is a r­ ranged, and. extraordinary cases are covered, such as aid 'to crippled chil­ dren. T here' a re other subdivisions m uch, too Intricate'. to .analyze here for the ,reason that their application is decidedly limited. T h e ' drafters, of the - legislation sought- to cover .'all.

First, there is the ponderous organ- zation for adm inistration to be created here In W ashington.

N utrition in reference to cost is the big problem which is concerning all of us these days, w hether our own food budgets have been cut to the bone,-or w hether we are straining all our resources to help the many fam ­ ilies in our neighborhood who are in need of aid. In this emergency, the dietetic au­ thority who w rote this article pointy out, the organized institutions which have been dealing with family relief in prosperous tim es—for there is al­ ways relief problems—have been found ready to deal w ith the situa­ tion as far as it is possible at a moment when they have been obliged to cut the. am ount of aid given , to each family below an ade­ quate amount. One oi the most seri- ohs results of the necessary lowering of food standards is the possibility of permanent Injury to the .future health of children who have not been supplied with the food essentials which they must have for the proper development of growing bodies. From the Departm ent of Agricul­ ture in W ashington the Farm ers Bul­ letin No. 1674, entitled “Food for Children,” will be furnished for the asking. This has been prepared by the bureau of home economics in co­ operation with the W ashington Child Research Center, and is most com­ plete. The American Child Health association will, supply a bulletin en­ titled “Food at T ow Cost,” by Lucy H. Qillett, for three cents, with a lower price on large numbers. W hile these bulletins consider particularly the problem of child feeding, they can be applied to the problem of fam ­ ily food, as tl>e_principles are the sam e for the old and young. Of course, it is more necessary for chil­ dren to have milk than for adults,. Who, however, will find it difficult on a low-cost diet to.get proper nourish­ ment w ithout its use. One of the results of the cutting down of the money available for food, it has been found, has been an Increase in- the disease known-as pel­ lagra, which has been heretofore more prevalent In’ the South than in other sections of the country. For many years the cause was unknown. At present it seems as if vitamin G has distinct influence upon the pre­ vention of pellagra. The United States public health service has found: “T hat people who have enough food, including plenty of milk, lean meat, fish, plenty of green, leafy vege­ tables,.or tomatoes, do not have pel­ lagra. . On the other hand, a diet which consists wholly of cornmeal; fat meat, ,rice or potatoes and molasses or sirup, as in some sec­ tions' o f the country, Is likely to pro­ duce pellagra.” To be. good; a diet should include cheese, eggs and vege­ tables of green-or yellow color, in ad­ dition to -bilk, bread and celeals, lean meat, (fat meat will not prevent pellagra) and tomatoes. B ut what Is to be done when the family, pocket- book cannot be stretched to cover all those Jtem s ? Every one In your community, how­ ever much of the family income has been cut, if it is still adequate, is f.eeling the responsibility of helping other families less fortunate. The Belmont committee plan" of asking one family, or a group of persons, to "adopt” a family during this emer­ gency period, asked for only $15 a week to take care of its bare needs.. This low figure means that the mosr- inexpensive foods m ust be used. Two menus suggested by the bureau of home economics, which can be pre­ pared at a low cost, follow. The recipes which are included are large because they form the-principal part of the meal, and two helpings will probably be used.

Skeffingtou, the eminent optometrist, recommends frequent in­ dulgence In golf for business men. In primitive days, be explains, man used his eyes in hunting, and golf Is good because it develops the eyesight by giving the “hunting eye” a bit of exercise. “A fine theory—if it only worked,” says Banker Addlepate as he compares today’s card of 118 with the 108 he shot a year ago.—Londoo Answers. Millions have found in Calotabs a most valuable aid in the treatm ent of colds. They take one or two tab­ lets the first night" and repeat the third or fifth night if needed.How do Calotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, Calotabs are one of the most thorough and de­ pendable of all intestinal eliminants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and toxlnes. Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the kidneys, promoting the eUminatioc of cold poisons from the blood. Thiu= Calotabs serve the double purpose ot a- purgative and-diuretic,- both of which are needed in the treatm ent of colds. Calotabs are quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the family package, ten cents for the tritu! package. (Adv.)

T h e situation is such th at th is w ork, begun as an absolute necessity, has to go on for the tim e. It w ould be nonsense to object to adequate and confortable quarters for the adm inistration. B ut th at w hich gives pain, and will continue to give pain, is the seem ing evid^ ence of perm anency w hich seem s to be taking hold on beneficiaries and adm inistrators. So long ’ as this w ork has to be continued it is, to be repeated, evidence of the coun­ try ’s inability— and this has no re­ ference to any particular group— to overcom e the situation th at over­ took it a few years ago T he happiest-dav we_can vision, one th a t w ould justify p u ttin g on an all day celebration w ith parades and bands and oratory, will be to see the building w hich th e relief adm inistration has ju st occupied vacated except for the few neces­ sary to look after the chronic de­ stitu te and disabled in tow n and county, w hich we al ways have had w ith us and alw ays will have, for obvious reasons. T h e absolute dis solution of the federal relief forces here not only-but everyw here w ould be an event to celebrete because it w ould be an event to celebrate be­ cause it w ould signalize th e" coun­ try ’s recovery from desperate illness the retu rn of health, th e ^ o m in g 'of a tim e w hen all physically able to w ork can earn th eir ow n and should be glad and proud to do it T he th in g of-greatest desire is th at the country w ork to th a t end; th at as­ sistance be gradually lessened in ­ stead of increased. .

ROBBERS’; ZANE GIiEYSYNOPSIS Jim Wallr young: cowpuncher from TFvoniing, seeks a new field in Utah, jlo meets Hank Haysr who tells him he 5s working for an Englishman, Her­ rick. Hays and others are plotting to steal their employer's cattle and money. With Hays, Jim Wall goes to Her- rick's ranch. Hays and his lieutenants drive off a bunch of cattle. Heeseman Is Hays' rival among the cattle rustlers. Jim Is sent to meet Miss Herrick. Hays betrays unusual interest In the girl's coming. Wall finds himself falling In love with Helen, and he fears Hays lias designs on the girt Jim coaches her In riding western style, and final- •y kisses her. She Is angry and dis­ misses him, but relehts and asks him not to leave the ranch. Hays' men re­ turn from the drive, having the money. A quick getaway is Imperative. Hays tells them to go on ahead, that he will join them. He comes, with Helen Herrick—a captive. Hays explains that he stole Helen for ransom. Realizing that Helen will be worse off If she falls into Heeseman's clutches, Jim Wall does nothing. Heeseman’s riders come In pursuit. Hays leads the gang into a canyon retreat—The Robbers’ Roost. In the "roost” Jlm keeps a watchful eye on Helen. Heeseman's riders appear. Helen is taken to a cave, and Hays and his followers pre­ pare for the coming battle. CHAPTER X—Continued — 16— Scarcely had he gotten out of sight when Jini thought of the field glass. Smoky should have taken i t Jim risked going back to his pack to se­ cure it. and had the fun of dodging another bullet. What had become of H ays? W ait­ ing alone among these deflecting bul­ lets wore on Jim 's mood. He decided to peep out of the hole again. To this end he climbed to the shelf, rifle In hand and the glass slung around his neck. He could command every point w ith the aid of the field glass, w ithout ex­ posing his head. Au instant later a far-off shot thrilled Jim. T hat m ight be Smoky. Suddenly a dark form staggered-up, flinging arm s aloft, silhouetted black against the sky. T hat m ust be the sharpshooter. Smoky had reached him. Headlong he pitched off the cliff, to plunge sheer Into the w ash below. Smcky had at least carried out his idea. Suddenly Jim espied H ays boldly mounting the slope. B ut It appeared that he had not been discovered y e t Those on top w ere facing the unseen peril to the w est JIm marveled at the purpose of the robber chief. Still another shot from Smoky—the last! B ut Hays had reached high enough to see over. Leveling the rifle he took deliberate aim. Then he fired. “HeesemanI” hissed Jtm , as sure as It he himself had held that gun. Hays, working the lever of his rifle, bounded back and - aside. Shots boomed. One knocked him to his knees, but he lunged up to fire again. Again he w as hit, or the rifle was, for It broke from his hands. Draw ing his two revolvers he leveled them , and as he fired one, then the other, he backed against the last broken sec­ tion of the walk Jim saw the red dust spatter from the rock above. The shots thinned out and ceased. Hays w as turning to the left, his re­ maining gun lowered. H e w as aim ing down the slope on the other side. H e fired again—then no more. Those who were left of Heeseman’s outfit had taken flight H ays watched them, strode to the side of the Mg rock, and kept oh w atching them. Soon be turned back and, sheathing one gun, took to reloading the other. It was at this moment that Jim relin­ quished the field glass to take up his rifle. W ith naked eyes through the aperture In the brush, .he could see Hays finish loading his gun. This moment, to Jim ’s avid mind, was the one In which to kill the rob­ ber. He drew a bead on H ays' breast. But he could not press the trigger, lowering the hammer, Jim w atched Hays stride up among the rocks, to disappear. Jim leaped up out of the hole to bare a better look. F a r beyond the red ridge he discerned men running along the w hite wash. T here were three ot them, scattered. A fourth ap­ peared from behind a bank, and he rras crippled. H e waved frantically to the comrades who had left him to fare for himself. They were headed for the core where the horses still stood. ■And their precipitate flight attested to the end of th at battle and as surely, to the last of Heesem an’s outfit. CHAPTER XI JIm picked up the field glass and slinging it on his elbow, essayed a descent Into the cave. On the shelf he hesitated and sat a m oment locked In thought A second tim e he started down, only to halt straddling the notch. The battle had w orked out fatefully and fatally. W ould he see Smoky again? T et nothing had changed the issue. The end w as not y e t W ith his blood surging ...back to his heart, Jim leaped down to m eet the robber chief. “Where’s Smoky?” called Jim , his lynx eyes on Hay’s right hand. “Cashed In,” boomed Hays, fastening great hollow eyes of pale fire upon Jim. “He had cover. H e plugged I don’t know how many. But Morley’s outfit had throwed in. w ith Heeseman. An’ when thet gam bler Stud broke an’ run Smoky had to head him off. They killed each other.? “Who got aw ay?

No more of thet outfit sneaked down In l yar.” “M ac stuck his noodle too far' out of that hole in the cave. Anil Happy Jack stopped a glancing bulletl There’s ju st two of us left. Hays.

B ut it Jest didn’t happen thet way.” “N o; It didn’t B ut it w ill!” T hat cool statem ent pierced the rob­ ber’s lethargic mind. Up w ent his shaggy' head and the pale eyes, opaque, like burned-out furnaces, took on a tiny, curious gleam. W hen his hand cam e slowly down from inside Ms shirt the fingers w ere stained red. “W hat kind of a crack w as thet?” he demanded, puzzled. “Hays, you fo rg et” “You’re sore thet I didn’t divvy square?” “Hays, I take it you double-crossed me same as-you did them.” "Uh-huh.

We’ll throw to­ gether, Mde somewhere a while, then build up another outfit” “It can’t be done.” “I’ll give you tw o-thirds ■ of the money.” “H ays, I wouldn’t take another dol­ la r from you—th at you gave willing-, ly.” JIm had turned his left side slightly tow ard H ays, concealing his right honrt, which had slipped to Ms gun butt, w ith his thum b on the ham m er!

I promised Smoky Td kill you—wMch he m eant to do if he had lived to come back.” , _ The robber’s face grew a dirty wMte under his thin beard. At last^he un­ derstood, so much, a t le a st Y w umes his stupidity spoke for his ab- sorption I- It changed. JiM ’s posture. his unseen hand, suddenly loomed w ith trem endous meaning. “Shore. Thet doesn’t surprise me,” adm itted the robber. “W hen men’s feelin’s are raw, as in a tim e like this, they clash. B ut I did my share to clear the air. An’ if Smoky had come back he’d have seen it different. I could have talked him out of It. . . . Jim, you’re shore sm art enough to see thet, an’ you ougnter be honest enough to adm it i t ” “I daresay you could have won Smoky back.. He had a fool worsMp for you. . . . But you can’t talk me out of anything” “Why, fer Gawd’s sake—when Tm givin’ you all the best of the deal?” “Because I w ant the girl,” thun­ dered Jim. A great astonishm ent held H ays stricken. Through it realization fil­ tered. “Thet! Thet was it—all the tim e I” he gasped. “All the time, H ank Hays,” replied Jim , steadily, and it was the robber’s eyes, pale fires no longer, th a t he watched for thought and wllL Still he saw the violent m uscular quivering which slowly diminished to freeze into rigidity. H e had struck the right chord. In w hatever way pos­ sible, H ank Hays loved this woman. However it had begun, the sordid, brutal thing had ended in Hays’ wor­ ship of the golden-haired sister of H errick, Jim read this In the extraor­ dinary betraying eyes; and read more —that it had been Helen the robber had fought for, not his lost caste with his men, not the honor of thieves. It w as this that accounted for the in­ fernal blaze of unquenchable hate, of courage that death itself could scarce­ ly have stilled. AU this Immediately coalesced into the conscious resolve to act and kill! As the robber sprang up Jim ’s first shot took him somewhere In the1 breast. It whirled him half around. H is gup, spouting flame, tore up the' gravel a t Jim ’s fe e t A terrible wound i with its agony, a consciousness of its m ortality, added to the overwhelming ferocity of jealous hate, gave the man superhum an physical activity. He whirled, bounding the other way, and so swiftly that Jim ’s second shot missed him altogether. Hays’ gun was booming, but it w as also describing the same curves and jerks as his body. Then as passion gave place to desperate need and the gun aligned itself w ith Jim , Jim ’s third shot! de- troyed aim, force and consciousness. H ays’ demoniac face set- woodenly.

Robust for his years, his face ruddy from out­ door life, he seemqd rather a tall tower which pointed to things as definite as north, south, east and west. Tet he had a strange tale to relate about a visual prophetic omen. “In the fourth game of the World series In 1929, the Philadelphia Ath­ letics played the Chicago Cubs on a Saturday at Shibe park in Philadel­ phia,” he began. . “In the la st half of the seventh in­ ning the score was 8-0, in favor of our opponents. “I dreaded not only the Impending loss of the game, but also the trip to Chicago, which would have to be made if we lo st The picture of the train already made up flashed across my mind. The train seemed to be coming toward me. The image was vivid and portentous. "Simultaneously, with the flash of the picture, Simmons came up to bat. The game changed in our favor in the last half of the seventh inning. He hit a home run. Then Foxx batted, and they went right down the line until they came to the pitcher.- The pitcher was replaced by a pinch-hitter. “Then we started at the top of our batting order. When it came to the seventh batter, Jimmy Dykes, the score was a tie. The bases were filled. Jim ­ my made a two-base hit, driving in two runs, leaving two men on bases. “Boley, the eighth batter, struck out for the second out. Then came: the pinch-hitter, and he also struck out, making the third out. The score was 10-8 in our favor. We had won the game. “In the fifth game excitement was widespread. President Hoover was there. In the first half of the ninth inning the score was 2-0, in favor of our opponents, the Cubs. “As defeat faced me, the image of the train already made up again flashed through my brain the same as It had the day before. I gave myself tim e to think. Might the image of that train be an omen and might there fol­ low events sim ilar to yesterday’s game? •Was. there something psychic in that image? “Strangely, and simultaneously, with that image the game turned in our fa- or. Bishop lined a hit over third iase; H aas hit the second ball pitched [or a home run which tied the score. V1A fter Cochrane went out for the second out, Simmons made a two-base hit. Foxx was walked purposely. Then Miller hit a two-base hit, driving in the winning run, and we had won the ball game, 3-2.” I * * *! By SOPHIE KERR Authoress.

My guide did not tell me where I w as going or where I was until I had looked about me, and until I had been moved by.the atmosphere of the different buildings. “W hen I entered one building I ex­ claimed, ‘I don’t like this place. I have the sense of unspoken horrors being committed in this place.* “There was nothing in the room to tell me where I was, but if ever I could feel the unspoken' story of past events I felt it then. I was oppressed by a sense of unknown horrors. I felt the agony of horror upon, horror. Radio­ like waves with messages m ust have come to me. “For, after a few minutes, the guide said, in a dull unemotional monotone. ‘This is the Museum of Tortnre a t The Hague.

Ten million idle acres and more on either side of this railroad running along the Atlantic coast from southern Florida to New York. Two of the acres, intensively cultivated, would feed a family.

There Is an empire for you, ir k>ne single state. And we talk about “over-popula- . ition” with so much land not used, and none of It used with full intelligence. * The Townsend plan, $200 a month ■to everybody sixty years of age. Is sol­ emnly discussed by congress, which ought to be passing a sound, reason­ able old age pension now. The Town- j;end plan Is an interesting plan In imany ways. By taxation on every ^transaction, on producer, jobber, whole­ saler, retailer, manufacturer, buyer, It would practically absorb all available money to turn it over to deserving, or otherwise, persons, aged sixty. It would soon become necessary for some other Townsend to organize a $200-a- montb plan for all paupers. There would soon be twice as many paupers a s there are people sixty years old. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt is mean­ ly criticized, because, having interest­ ed herself In providing better homes fo r poor people, It appears that the undertaking may Involve some slight •financial loss, trifling In United States finance. Mrs. Roosevelt caused families to fce moved from miserable hovels Into comfortable homes. A woman with children, living last year In two rooms without windows, with nothing but raw carrots for her Christm as dinner, told Mrs. Roosevelt th at she did not dare tell her children It was O iristm as day. On this Christm as day, when Mrs. Roosevelt went to see her, the mother, with a new born baby, and her chil­ dren, all happy, were living in a de­ cent homestead, with modern improve­ ments, including a cellar full of canned goods. U th at did cost a little money, It w as money well spent. O ther ladies and gentlemen who liave spent money for the United States government have not done so well. A steel gate 12 feet thick, weigh­ in g '3,000,000 pounds, was closed one day recently and the Colorado river, its w ater and power, definitely har­ nessed, made slaves of man.

H ereafter, the Colorado will flow as man shall or­ der, lighting cities. Irrigating deserts, supplying power fa r away. M an eventually will control the earth completely.

Maloy, vet­ eran head of Chicago’s Motion Picture ^Operators’ union, w as killed In the ns- 'tial way, as he sat a t th« wheel of his automobile.

He had been Indicted and released on bail on a charge of failure to report three hundred and fifty thou­ sand dollars' Income before the assas­ sin’s "slugs” canceled that and other accusations. If the leader of a motion picture union got that Income yon wonder how and from whom he got it, also what other motion picture operators who got no such sum think about it. It was tim e for somebody to say w hat Mr. RIchberg says now, that he “does not propose to put the interest of the unions above loyalty to bis gov­ ernm ent" It Is a friendly act to remind union labor again that if it w ants to know w hat happens when separate organi­ zations claim the right to run the coun­ try they should study conditions In Italy.

PICKARD ©, Western Hewspaoer Union. CONTINENTAL chancellories turned their attention toward a new plan designed to restore Germany to com­ plete equality among European nations and to strengthen the shak.v foundations of peace, as conversa­ tions ended between Pierre Laval. French foreign minister, and Sir John Simon, Brit­ ish foreign secretary. Germany will ba of­ fered a promise of re­ peal of the military clauses of the treaty of Versailles in return Pierre Laval for r e.e n t e r i n g the League of Nations. Such a concession would seem a victory for Hitler’s cam­ paign to restore Germany to its place as a sovereign power in Europe. Another proposal arising from the negotiations greatly aids France’s cam­ paign for security. Regional defense pacts to provide the nations partici­ pating with reciprocal assistance in re­ pelling an unprovoked air attack are p art of the plan. France and Great B ritain are willing to enter into such a series of pacts, and suggest that oth­ er European nations be invited to join. This signifies that either nation must rush planes to the aid of the other In the event of attack from the air. The pact will undoubtedly be concluded be­ tween G reat Britain and France, no m atter what action the other nations take, although no formal announce­ ment has been made. Some European diplomats are not at all certain that Germany and Poland can be persuaded to change the unre- ceptive attitude they have so far mani­ fested .toward suggestions for their par­ ticipation in an “eastern Locarno.” Germany may be so strongly rearmed by this tim e that she will not be con­ cerned whether her armaments are le­ galized. This, however, Is only speculation. Dispatches from Germany have indi­ cated the reich’s willingness to engage In any conversations proposed by the Franco-British form ula,'but she must first be assured of complete equality of status. H itler has previously h in t ed that Germany would return to the League of Nations when full equality Is accorded, and there is some possi­ bility that the reich will participate in mutual aerial assistance against an air aggressor since this would legalize an air fighting force. A LMOST unnoticed among the spec- tacular Issues of the day, yet of momentous importance, the case of the United States against Belcher will be set for hearing by the Supreme court within a few days. This case opens up discussion on the constitu­ tionality of the heart of the entire NRA experiment—the power of the federal government to regulate wages and working hours through codes. Upon this refusal of a small Ala­ bama sawmill operator to comply with the code hangs the entire fate of the NRA, for If the government loses there will be nothing left' of NRA except an empty statem ent of desirable business ethics. If the government cannot con­ trol wages and hours In the produc­ tion of goods intended for interstate commerce, there Is a strong likelihood that the course of legislation to extend the NRA beyond June 16 will be strong­ ly affected. Other cases now pending before the court touch upon certain portions of the vital question, but this case goes straight to the basic power of llie recovery a c t It affords a clear- I t determination of the fundamental Issues, because there is no dispute as to facts, no technicalities of law upon which the Issue can be avoided. The case comes almost as an original case, since the attorney general took advan- age of legal machinery perm itting an appeal directly to the Supreme court from the decision, of a feder.al D istrict court w ithout.recourse to a Court of Appeals. W hat the government’s line of de­ fense will be Is not known. The case Involves all the constitutional objec­ tions which might be raised agajnst the recovery a c t DecisSons of .the court In the recent oil cases did not touch upon the constitutionality of the main body of the act, but involved only a special section. C EN A TO R BORAH of Idaho, always sternly opposed to action that might lead the United Stares into for­ eign entanglements, has surprisingly come forward with a demand that con­ gress investigate the alleged religious persecutions In Mexico and persuade our neighbors to the south to cease them. The excuse for. such proposed meddling is that some citizens of the United States may be among the “vic­ tims.” Through its representatives In W ashington the. Mexican government calmly denies tbere is a n y . religions persecution down there, and says all who obey the laws are perm itted to worship as they please. If the Borah resolution carries, Mexico may well tell the United States to mind its own business. Representative Fish of New York follows Borah's lead by Intro­ ducing In the house a resolution calling upon the President to take diplomatic steps toward abatem ent of w hat he declares is growing communism In Mexico. He said the commnnistlc trend was directly connected with the alleged religious persecutions, and that entrenchment of communism In Mexico would seriously affect the United States. SENATOR LONG reopened the hear­ ing concerning the “m urder plot” which he says was formed to do away with him, and produced some rem ark­ able testimony. George Davis, a for­ mer deputy sheriff of East Baton Rouge, parish, swore that he and Fred Parker, another form er deputy, hatched the plot and made several at­ tem pts to shoot the Kingfish with rifles, failing because they were always too closely watched by Huey's guards. Parker refused to answer questions on constitutional grounds, as did Fred O’Rourke, whom the senator called the chief agent of the Standard Oil Com­ pany of Louisiana'in the recent armed revolt against his dictatorship. Prob­ ably because he wanted to hurry back to W ashington, the senator then post­ poned the hearing indefinitely. T HREE million pounds of steel In the form of a huge gate was slowly lowered into place a t the Boulder dam, the great Colorado river was placed under control, and there came into be­ ing a new lake which will eventually lie the largest ever made by man. In two or three years it will extend back 115 miles from the dam. By Jnne I next It will, contain about 3,000,000 acre feet of w ater or one-tenth of its ca­ pacity. Only one of the diversion tun­ nels remains open. It is on the Ne­ vada side and through it will be per­ mitted to flow only enough w ater to meet the needs of irrigation in the Im­ perial valley of California. The big gate just lowered closed tunnel No. 4, which will also be blocked by an immense concrete plug which Is now being constructed. The purpose of this “cork” is to form a block half way down the tunnel a t the point where another incline tunnel drops from the Arizona spillway that will permit any waters about the dam’s level to flow by the spillway. Wm. Green D R ESID EN T ROOSEVELT renewed *• the automobile code, with two changes designed to stabilize employ­ m ent; but the American Federation of Labor, growing daily more dissatisfied with the government’s pol­ icy, denounced the code extension, and President William Green said: “We will not accept it, recog­ nize nor yield to i t ” The federation’s exec­ utive council bitterly attacked Donald Rich- berg, emergency coun­ cil -director, and Dr. Leo Wolman, chairman of the automo­ bile labor board, asserting they are iW tile to the American Federation of Li- bor. Wolman1S board not long ago con­ ducted elections In the D etroit area which revealed that less than 1 0 'per cent of the employees were affiliated with the federation, and presumably for this reason Green and his aidS|Were not consulted in; the m atter of renewal of the code. President Roosevell had nothing to say for publication except that he was fully informed concerning the federation’s attitude. ' I Extension of the code w as welcomed by the Automobile M anufacturers’ as­ sociation, Its officers declaring there would be steadier work in; their fac­ tories and that w inter unemployment would be greatly reduced. The changes In the code call for the introduction of new models during a 60-day period before or after October I, and pay and a half for overtime work. A FTER less than a month In office Gov. Thomas H. Moodie w as oust­ ed by the North D akota Supreme court The court held Moodie ineligible on the ground that be had voted, and thereby established, residence, In Min­ nesota In 1930. The constitutional pro­ vision requires candidates for governor to have lived In the state five consecu­ tive years before election. His suc­ cessor, Lieut. Gov. W alter H. Welfdrd, will be the fourth governor in seven months. Last June the State Supreme court ordered the removal of W illiam Langer, Who had just been convicted of conspiracy to solicit political con­ tributions from federal relief workers. 'T 'H E drama that characterized this Hauptmann trial during the first few days Is mostly gone, and the case has sunk to the level of the usual le­ gal wrangle. Efforts of the defense to establish an alibi for the ex-carpen­ ter have been only partially success­ ful, and attem pts to cast suspicion on Violet Sharpe, Morrow maid who com­ mitted suicide, Isidor Fisch,. Haupt­ mann’s dead partner, and others have not been particularly impressive. The defense has introduced handwriting ex­ perts who have testified thai Haupt­ mann did not w rite the ransom notes. Even the jury appears to be haying difficulty in concentrating on the case. Many predictions are being made that the case will result in a hong jury. Those, however, are only guesses and may be taken for exactly w hat they are worth. RGANIZED labor In America now gives Its full support to the inter­ national labor organization In Geneva.

National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart National Press Buildine Washington, D. C. Washington.—Representative Fish, a New York Republican, has- renewed his fight 'against the S ta rts radicals whom be S o m e th in g charges with having bored into positions Of responsibility. In so doing, the New York house m em ber.has stirred up a veritable avalanche of reviews, surveys and explorations of w hat is going on of a socialistic nature In the govern­ m ent Mr. Flsh charged on the floor o f ‘the house th at some of the New Dealers were making cash contribu­ tions to the “reds” and proceeded to name them. The house speech by Mr. Fish In a general way called attention to the various movements going on th at can properly be described as radical in every respect. His attack directed the attention of observers here to some phases of adm inistration policies that thus far have excited little com m ent For many months; of course, the activities of the Agricultural A djust­ ment adm inistration have been sub­ jected to the criticism that they con­ stitute regim entation of the farm ers, that is, a general program that holds down good farm ers to the level of the haphazard type in the agricultural In­ dustry. Likewise there have been at­ tacks on the methods employed by the Reconstruction Finance corporation which dominates the affairs of some four thousand banks as a result of loans to them and is gradually expand­ ing its sphere of Influence among other Industries to which loans have been made. The seriate committee on munitions, headed by Senator Nye of N orth Da­ kota, appears to be headed for a recommendation that all munitions and ship yards be government controlled if not government owned, and only a few days ago the congress enacted a law extending for two years the opera­ tions of the Reconstruction Finance corporation so that It may continue tlie government influence it has wielded heretofore, ; On top of these, Mr. Roosevelt has asked the congress to appropriate al­ most $5,000,000,000 for his use in 'the general recovery program and has vir­ tually demanded that this fund be made available to him w ithout strings attached. In ,other words, the Presi- /dent desires to expend this money as he sees A t w hether it m eets w ith con­ gressional approval or not. We hear also much discussion o f ad­ ministration policies and legislative proposals providing penalties of a seri­ ous character as punishm ent for those who dare to go contrary to the general recovery laws as advanced by the Pres­ ident These penalties, fines for the most, p a rt are being described In some quarters as a form of H itler terrorism . The , administration stands on the ground that it m ust have complete dominance if its schemes are to be successful, but the fact rem ains that it is prepared by virtue of the punish­ m ent available for its use to take away vast sums of money from the industry or individual which objects to govern­ m ent methods. There Is arising more and more criticism of the extrem e pun­ ishment employed In the New Deal leg­ islation and unless I miss my guess badly this feature of the New Deal will flare back upon its sponsors in a m anner most unwelcome to the brain trusters. • * * In connection with the President’s plan to have congress provide him ' with the $5,000,000,-- New OQO fljjyj „se |n Arguments his discretion, op­ position has arisen W th some new arguments. W hile the President constantly is repeating his assertion th at the adm inistrative branches of the government can ac­ complish more with a free hand than by having the money ear-m arked by congress for specific use, critics are charging th at the President’s proposal means putting the government further Into business. For example, the sen­ ate appropriations committee uncovered Information the other day while con­ sidering the $5,000,000,000 bill th at In­ dicated the existence of a plant by which the federal government would engage in the distribution and sale of gasoline. It take no stretch of the Imagination to see how this move links with' the previous efforts of Secretary Ickes, as oil adm inistrator, to control the whole on Industry. By the distribution and sale o f gasoline, the government can enforce regulations by competition which the Supreme court said were un­ constitutional. Its control would be exercised through damming np the stocks of gasoline, and oil companies, privately owned, would find themselves Ut the mercy of government bureau­crats. . . Th?ie„„are ®any other features of the- $5,000,000,000 bill against which Bre of the opposition has been dlrect- «d, but It seems safe to say that con­ gress will yield to the Presidential d * mand. and pass the appropriations K18T r^ tJ1I r near the for® desired by the Chief Executive. With respect to the operation of !!r6W the S°vernm ent as charged by Mr. Fish, W ashington long has been deluged with rum ors of radical activi­ ties. Except for the charges'by D r -Wil­ liam W irt, the Gary, Ind., school super­ intendent, Mr. F ishV accusations, are the first to place the finger on nam es. The New TorKer charged on the floor of the house th at Robert M arshall, field director for the bureau of Indian af­ fairs and G ardner Jackson, deputy ad­ m inistrative counsel of the.consum ers division In the A grlcultnral A djust­ ment adm inistration, among others, had made cash contributions to the veterans rank and file committee. H e asserted th at these contributions w ere made “for the purpose of instigating a bonus march of communists on W ashington,” and It is to be rememr bered th at the great bonus march of three years ago was headed by the veterans rank and file committee. Mr. Fish described Mr. M arshall as one of the younger members of the brain tru st and asserted th a t “most of the .members” of the brain tru st are or have been active in the American civil liberties union. The representative cited am ong those in the brain tru st who, he said were active in the civil liberties union the following: Prof. R esford Guy Tug- well, undersecretary of agriculture; Donald R. RIchberg, ..director of the National Em ergency council and the so-called No. 2 m an In the adm inistra­ tion ; Robert Fechner. Dirfector of the Civilian Conservation corps; Prof. Paul H. Douglas, of the N ational Recovery adm inistration; Dr. Frederic C. Howe, consumers counsel of the A gricultural Adjustm ent adm inistration; N athan R. Margold, of the Interior depart­ m ent; Jam es M. Landis, a m ember of th e Federal Securities and Exchange commission and a form er member o f the federal trade commission; and John A. Lapp, described as an im­ partial Presidential representative in the National Recovery adm inistration. * * * ■ A fter some 12 years of consideration, the penate has refused to approve American member-First Big ship in the W orld Setback C ourt In rejecting the ' President’s re­ quest for ratification of American ad­ herence to th at court the npper house of congress gave the adm inistration Its first Im portant setback. And it w as an im portant defeat for M r. Roosevelt because no one can tell now w hether the President Is going to m aintain the firm grip hitherto held on the senate. Four Presidents—H arding. Coolldge. and Hoover, Republicans, and Roose­ velt—have requested senate ratifica­ tion and four Presidents have had the thing tossed back to them a fter bitter battles. This time, as heretofore, the senate rejected the proposal on the ground that the U nited States w as be­ ing led. into the back door of the League of N ations and all will rem em ­ ber how stubbornly the senate resisted entry into the League of N ations when W oodrow W ilson w as President. The same argum ents were used as have been used before, namely, th at if the United States adhered to the per­ m anent court of international justice (the form al title of the court) the country would be catapulted Into th e m idst of all of Europe’s entanglem ents, jealousies and diplomatic chicanery. Senator Borah of Idaho, one of the leading opponents of court entry, con­ cluded his argum ent in the senate with the assertion th at the W orld C ourt w as a court of w ar and not of peace. Proponents of the court have m ain­ tained , constantly th at the United States could accomplish much tow ard world peace by participating in court adjudication of controversies. Oppo­ nents insisted we should let well enough alone and m aintain our isola­ tion. Only through th at manner, they argued, can the United States avoid loss of Its sovereignty through the dic­ tates of the court decision. * * • Joseph B. Eastm an, federal co-ordina­ tor of railroads, has proposed to eon- r . , gress a new planLastman s for control of the Plan whole structure of transportation In this country. W ith the approval of the P resident Mr. Eastm an has offered bills for federal regulation of motor busses and trucks, for the reorganiza­ tion of the Interstate Commerce com­ mission and establishm ent of a fed­ eral co-ordinator of transportation as a perm anent office, compensation for dismissed railroad employees * dis­ placed through co-ordination of opera­ tion, a revision of the bankruptcy act relating to railroads, provision for die commission to prescribe minimum as well as maximum joint rail and w ater rates, provision for elimination of al­ leged benefits or prejudice as to ports and gatew ays and to Umlt the right to reparation for damage due to violations of the interstate commerce laws. The co-ordinator’s proposals resulted from a comprehensive study of the general problems relating to 'transport tation. It was probably the most ei- tensive report on these questions that congress ever has received. Certainly there can be no lack of Information available for use by congress If it de­ termines to enact railroad legislation at this session. Whether, such legisla­ tion will get through Is yet prob­ lematical. The consensus seems to be that there will be regulation of the motor\frucks and busses, biir how far beyond that the congress will go im- PMrs to depend upon the President’s ability to gain a rubber stamp on his program. “ siss M i l l Western Newspaper 'Union: T he “blood count” for engines, the Work of a woman scientist, and some­ thing new In antomobile tests, has been perfected in Pennsylvania.’ The new treatm ent examines engine oil m uch,as a physician studies human blood.

New York.—Every Pne of the one bunured and twenty-five millions of people in these United States pays or­ ganized and unorganized crim e th e ' sum of 30 cents each an.d every day of the year. Thirty cents from the new-born babe, or the oldest inhabitant, means thirty- seven millions, five hundred thousand dollars each day or a grand total of thirteen billions, six hundred and eighty-seven millions five hundred thousand dollars a year—three times the cost bf the United States govern­ ment and one and a third times more than the foreign nations owe us in w ar debts, w rites Phelps Phelps in the Chicago Herald Examiner.

In the city of New York alone, there is an average of a half a million ar­ rests each year for all classes of crime, but the most painful truth brought forth by police reports Is th a t an av­ erage of forty thousand of those ar­ rested is between the ages of sixteen and tw enty years. More than one hun­ dred thousand of the total are between twenty-one and twenty-five years of age, and in the face of these figures, supplied by form er Police Commission­ er Mulrooney, the present city adminis­ tration has seen fit to abolish the high­ ly necessary and efficiently-conducted crim e prevention bureau of the police departm ent The underlying cause of wholesale crime in this country can be traced to lack of parental training, brought to a disgraceful low during the decade or more of the “noble experim ent” Slums and slum environm ent have a lot to do with starting the youngster on the downward path and latterly the wild teachings of disloyal and nitw it school officials have innoculated the rising generation with contem pt for all law s and all authority w hether official or parental. Blames Politicians.

Years ago, I advocated centralizing the police of this country. Al) police departm ents In cities and towns of over 25.000 cost taxpayers a little over five hundred m illions of dollars each year, but with the multiple form of government in each of the forty- eight states, with politicians, ruling city, county and state police forces, it is a w onder things are not w orse than they are. The bar association should be the first organization in America to w ar upon crim e by purging the ranks of a noble profession of the rats which seem to infest it In many parts of the country. Judges are not Innocent of helping crookdom w ar upon decent society. Many of our bench ornam ents have been chosen for alm ost every quality save brains, and I m ight say the sam e thing of parole boards Police, courts and parole boards m ust be entirely out of politics.

Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for February 24 PETER HEALS A LAME MAN LESSON TEXT—Acts 3:1-10; 4:8-12. GOLDEN TEXT—Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name-of Jesus Christ o f Nazareth rise up and walk.—Acts 3:6. PRIMARY TOPIC—Hon Peter Helped a Lame Man. JUNTOR TOPIC—Peter Carrying on Jesus’ Work. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—A Helping Hand. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—Gifts That Are Better Than Money. In the teaching of this lesson it will be necessary to include all .the m aterial in Acts 3:1 to 4:31. I. Peter Healing the Lame Man (Acta 3:1-10). 1. The place (w . I, 2). It was at the gate called Beautiful, which leads from the outer to the inner court of the temple. 2. The man (v. 2). This beggar was Infirm from his birth. • When he saw Peter and John, he asked alms. 3. The method (vv. 3-8). a. Gaining the man’s attention (v. 4). Peter and John commanded him to look on them, but not because they had any power within themselves. b. Peter commanded him in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth to rise and walk (v. 6 ). He had been unable to do this all his life, but with the com­ mand went the ability to do. c. Peter took him by the right hand (v. 7). This act was meant to give impetus to his faith, not strength to his ankles. 4. The man’s response (v. 8). Strength came Into his feet and ankle bones at once. He stood, he walked, be leaped, and praised God. 5. The effect (vv. 9-11). The people were filled with amazement. a. This helpless beggar had to be carried to the temple gate. Men and women out of C hrist are so helpless that they need to be brought where the life of God can be applied to them. b. Peter, in taking the man by the hand, shows the manner of helping the lo st W hile ministers and Sunday school teachers of themselves have nothing to give to the IosL they have the dispensing of the gospel of ChrisL II. Peter W itnessing Before the Mul­ titude (3:12-26). V He told them it was faith in Jesus ChrisL whom God had glorified and whom they had deliberately betrayed and crucified, that bad healed this man. Despite their awful guilt, be appealed to them to repent (v. 19). God would pardon them if they would repent, and refreshing seasons would come to them when God should send back Jesus Christ to the earth to consummate the work of redemption. III. Peter in Prison for Christ's Sake (4:1-4). I. The leaders in this persecution (vv. I, 2). Both priests and Sadducees joined in this wickedness. The priests were intolerant because these new teachers were encroaching upon their functions. The Sadducees joined the priests because they did not believe In the resurrection, which was a vital part of the apostolic teaching. ,2. The result (vv. 3, 4). Peter and John were arrested and imprisoned. Though the witnesses were held In bondage by chains, Christ was not bound. The number of believers had greatly increased, so that there were now about five thousand. IV. Peter W itnessing Before the Sanhedrin (4:5-22). 1. The inquiry (vv. 5-7). They in­ quired as to by w hat power and name they had w rought this miracle. 2. Peter’s answ er (vv. 8-12). With stinging sarcasm be showed them that they were not on trial as evildoers, bnt for doing good to the helpless and needy man. Since they could not deny the miracle, he boldly declared that it had been done in the name of Christ, and that the only way for them to es­ cape God’s judgm ent was to believe on his name. 3. The impression uponthe San- hedrin (vv. 13-22). a. They marveled (vv. 1-13). Tbey were made conscious that they were on trial Instead of sitting as judges-upon Peter and John. b. They took knowledge that Peter and John had been with Jesus (v. 13). c. They forbade them to speak In C hrist’s name (v. 18). d. Peter and John expressed their determ ination to obey God rather than , mao (vv. 19. 20). , e. Their release (v. 21). Seeing that the people were on the side of the apostles they had no way to pun­ ish them. V. The Church a t Prayer (vv. 23-31). They praised God for deliverance and prayed for boldness to speak the Word of God. Religion* Religion should be to every man not merely a creed, but an experience; not a restrain t but an in sp ira tio n n o t an insurance for the next world; but also a program for the present world.— Stalker. .Peace of God I;; W e need the peace of God In our heart just as really for the doing well of the little things, In our secular life as for the doing of the greatest duties uf Christ’s kingdom.

Judas, the m an w ithout a nam e­ sake, the man whose nam e has black­ ened history, is becoming the pat­ ron saint w ith som e H e found fault w ith the extravagance of love in an act of devotion and then justified his contention in pleading the wel-.. fare of the poor—'th e ointm ent m ight have been sold for much ar.d given to the poor.’ Judas began by a plea for the poor; he ended by sell­ ing his Lord for the cash th a t w ent bis own. his pocket. Money was the first and the last concern w ith the arch-traitor. "M oney is fast becom ing the last word, w ith us in this day when the m oral and spiritual forces th at moulded this nation are given such slight consideration in legislative hails and executive offices. The one consideration is: w hat will bring in money and how best they may. justi­ fy* their course. Shall the brazen m aterialists, the race track gam blers the whiskey fraternity, the desecra- tors of the Sabbath and the expon ents of tax divorce gain control? This course means money; it furnish e ?, they claim , money for the poor, fo r old age, for schools, fo r little children. Yes, enthrone Judas; sell his Lord.’ G et money.

Shall we m ake J udas our pat­ ron saint? Shall we put m aterial aid for the poor above righteousness and justice, godliness aad self-giving love? Shall Judas.or Jesus be on the The One Thing Forgot­ ten. The business of living is a difficult one a t best in this m otorized and mechanized era of airplanes, stream ­ lined cars.

In each township of D avie county, or will be posted a list of 1984 Cot­ ton C ontract S'gnere. This list shows the adjusted base acreage anti adjusted base production per acre. Some 1934 Cotton C ontract Signers nam es are not on these lists because their contracts have not been ap­ proved by the W ashington office. If nam es are left off and producers have received their notices of ac­ ceptance. (the yellow slip attached to their first rental check) the base acreage and production is show n on this notice of acceptance. The 1935 cotton contract will car­ ry's! m axim um of 35 per cent, of the adjusted base acreage which m ay be rented to the Secretary. However we are advised to suggest th a t all w ho sign 1935 contracts - and those who have signed 1934 contracts ren t the m axim um of 35 per cent, of their base acreage and plant for about the sam e poundage" th a t they received certificates for in 1934. The reason fo r not planting m ore is th a t there are several hundri d thousand bales of tax exem ption certificates which w ere not used in 1934 but which will be used in 1935. Also the sm all farm ­ er who has a base of 2 bales o r . less will allowed to sell his base w ithout tax provided he signes the contract. The signing of the 1935 cotton con­ tract will take place in the tow nship centers when the form s com« from the W ashington P rinting Office, and these form s are not' expected until the last of M arch. W hen these form s are received there will be publicity given so th at every interested per­ son may know w hat to do regarding the 1935 program ., The C om m ittee­ m en in the different tow nships will know when form s arrive and can furnish this inform ation a t your re­ quest.

Hic next move was to strap blankets BDd saddles on the two gentlest horses. Tho-e he led back to the cave, where he packed them. A fter th at he had onlv to saddle Bay and the gray horse Bclcn had ridden there. Suddenly he thought of Smoky. If he had been alone, or w ith another man even a helpless one, he would have taken time to find th at strange and faithful robber and have given him decent burial. B ut he would not leave the girl Wliile he stood there, trying to think what else to do, he remembered a sack of grain that Hays had packed from Star ranch, lie found It half full and tied it on the lighter pack. Fe hurried back to the girl, calling: “Are von ready?" "I've been waiting,” she said, and came swiftly o u t The rider's costume brought out the rounded grace of her form She had braided her hair. The sombrero he remembered shaded her face. "Where are your veil and long coat:" asked Jim, seeing her as on that unforgettable day. "He burned them,” she answered In a stifled voice. “Get Into this.” And he held his slicker for her. It enveloped her, dragged on the ground. “We're in for storm. Balny season due. You must keep dry.” Turning to the gray horse, she mounted. “Hide close beside me w here there’s room. Just ahead where there’s not,” he directed her. Jim tied the halters of the two pack animals to their packs, and started them off. Then he vaulted upon Bay —the first time for many weeks. The horse pranced, but steadied down un­ der an iron hand and heel. Helen looked back as one fascinated, but Jim bent stern gaze ahead. "I would destroy this canyon If that were in my power. Come,” he said. They rode up out of the oval, driv­ ing rue pack horses ahead. The rain was now falling heavily. On the gravel ridge to the w est Jlm saw a dead man lying prone. Soon they entered the wide, shallow wash, in the sand of which Jim espied footprints filling with w ater. They rode out of the tail of the storm and Into a widening of the wash, where It reached proportions of a small val­ ley. Scrab cedar and brush and cac­ tus began to show, and patches of sun­ flowers on low, sandy knolls. Thqy passed the cove w here the riders’ horses had been le ft Broad and deep was the trail to the south. "Are you all right?” Jim queried. “Oh, I did not know I could feel rap­ ture again. Yes, I am.” "You’re dizzy. Just the same. You sway in the saddle. Ride closer to me, while you can. . . . Give me your hand. Don't talk. B ut look—look! Yon might see w hat I do not see.” They rode at length to a canyon head, down which the hoof tracks turned. “h e came this way by night, but I rememher,’’ she said. “Do you dare to follow them?” "'Ve must not.” "But that is the way to S tar ranch I” “Yes, on the trail of desperate men, and across that D irty Devil river.

And It seemed that this point of sev­ erance had an Inscrutable parallel In the tum ult w ithin his heart. The sun set In an overshadowed fu an^ st°rm threatened all around the horizon. F ar north the thunder rolled, and to the south faint mutter- Ings arose. Jim could not hold to a straight course. He wandered where th e lay of the land perm itted. Rising w hite and red ground, with the mounds of rock falling, and green swales be­ tween, appeared endless and forlorn, H e began to look for a place to camp. At last, as tw ilight darkened the distant w ashes and appeared creeping up out of them, Jim came to another little valley where scant grass grew and dead cedars stood up, spectral ghosts of drought, and on the west side a low cavem ed ridge offered shel­ ter. H e led over to this and, dismount­ ing, said they would camp there. H er reply w as a stifled gasp, and essaying to get out of her saddle she fell into his arms. C H A P T E R X II To Jim W all It seemed a miracle th at he did not snatch Helen to his breast. Like a wind-driven prairie fire his blood raced. He set her up­ right on the ground. “Can you stand?” he Inquired. She essayed to, and, letting go of him, plainly betrayed her spent condi- H er Reply W as a Stifled Gasp. tlon. Jim helped her into the shallow hollow under the rock. In the quarter-hour before dusk he had unpacked, hobbled and fed the horses, built a fire and put w ater on to boil. H e carried his bed under the shelf and unrolled it, changed and doubled the blankets and folded the tarpaulin so th at it could be pulled up in case rain beat in. The fire sent a ruddy light Into the cavern, and all a t once Jim discovered th a t the girl w as w atching him. “Are we safe here?” she asked. "God only know s! I think so—I hope so. It’s a lonely desert Our enemies have gone the other way. They know they nearly wiped out Hays, and they’ll try again with rein­ forcem ents. They knew H ays had a fortune In cash—and you.” To his concern and discomfiture, she ate very little. She tried, only to fail. B ut she did drink her coffee. “You’ll pick up,” he said hopefully. “Sleep, though, Is more necessary than food.” “Jim , I can’t pull off my boots,” she said later. "Please help me.” She was sitting on the bed when Jim took hold of the boot she ele­ vated. “Look to see if you have any blis­ ters,” he said. *T11 bathe your feet In a little cold w ater and salt.” B ringing a pan of w ater, he knelt before her. “Don’t stand on ceremony, Helen. Stick out your fo o t . . ." She put out her sm all feet. -Jlm lost no Ume in pressing them down Into the cold salt w ater. Then he rubbed her feet until they w ere red. “P u t your stockings back on ana sleep: In your clothes,” he said. “Be­ fore you craw l in, I’ll br.’ug a hot stone.” “Ooooo!” She stretched out w ith a slow, final movement and pulled the blankets up under her chin. Almost InstanUy she fell asleep with the flickering firelight upon her face. Jim w alked out, to find the horses close to cam p and making out fairly well on Jhe grass. H e patrolled his beat betw een the flickering fire and the sleeping girl, heedless of the rain, sleepless for hours, on guard. And after th a t w hen he slept it w as with one eye open. Tow ard dawn he got up and rolled his bed. The air w as raw and cold, blowing a fine rain In his face. By tha tim e breakfast w as cooking daylight had broken. Finding a thin, flat rock Jim placed Helen’s break­ fast upon it and carried It to her bed­ side. Then he called her. “I’ve brought some food and strong coffee,” he said. , __ . Jlm repaired to his own breakfast, after which he wrapped op biscuits and m eat to take on the day’s ride. She pulled on her boots, and crawl­ ing out and straightening up w ith slow, painful effort she asked for a little hot water. Jim fetched i t Free then to pack, Jlm applied him­ self w ith swift, methodical hands. She mounted unassisted. Jlm helped her into the long slicker. “It’ll be a tough day,” he went on. “B ut we’re starting dry. H ang on as long as you can. We absolutely m ust get out of these brakes.” W ith th at he lined up the pack ani­ mals, and they were off. Jim traveled as best he could, keep­ ing to no single direction, though the trend w as northerly and following ground that appeared passable. The pack horses led. H e followed them, and Helen brought up the rear. •The rain fell all morning and let up a t Intervals. Then black clouds gathered, and a storm, with thunder and lightning, burst upon them. W ater ran in shoots off the rocks. A t length the fugitives cam e to a veritable river a t which the lead horse balked. Bay, however, did not show any qualms. So he put Bay to the task. The big horse made it easily, with w ater coming up to his flanks. W hereupon Jim rode him back, after which the pack horses, intelligent and sensible, essayed the ford. Then Jim returned for Helen. “I’ll carry you while you hang on to your bridle,” said Jim , riding close to the gray. He had to lift her sheer off her horse and around In front of him,- where he upheld her with his left arm. They made it, with the splendid horse staggering out under his double burden Just In the nick of time. “You are doing fine. We have come eighteen or tw enty miles. But I don’t like the look' ahead.” When once more they were on the way Jlm gave her a biscuit and a strip of m eat. “Eat. The rain will be on us soon.” Late in the afternoon there was a momentary brightening of massed clouds in the west. They rode down out of these low gravel hills that had limited their sight, Into a long, green, winding val­ ley. A red river, surely the D irty Devil, ran, ridged and frothy, under a steep wall of earth. “I can’t hang on—longer,” faltered Helen, faintly. "I'll carry you. W hy didn't you tell me sooner?” reproved Jim . He knotted her reins and dropped the loop ovet the pommel of her saddle. Then ha lifted her off her horse onto his. So Jim rode on, aware, that _her .cpfc lapse and the terrible nature of the desert and another storm a t hand were w earing away even his indom­ itable sp irit Ragged, red bluff stood up all along his right, w ith acres of loose rock ready to slide. They swung In behind the bluff, and then out again to the higher and nar­ row er bank upon which the old trail passed around the corner. "W hoa, Bay,” called Jlm hauling up to w ait for the gray. “I don’t like this place. Don’t look, Helen.” As she made no reply Jim leaned back to get a glimpse of her face, Asleep I "Come on, Gray,” he called to the horse behind, and to B ay: "Steady, old fellow. If that narrow s round there you w ant to step sure.” It did narrow. Eight feet, six feet —less! B its of the steep bank were crumbling away. B ut the pack horses bad gone round. It would not be safe to try to turn now. Suddenly Jim encountered a still narrow er point, scarcely five feet wide. The edge had freshly crumbled. It w as crumbling now. Bay stepped carefully, confidently. He knew horses with wide packs had safely passed there. He went on Jim felt him sink. One hind foot had crushed out a section of earth, letting him down. B ut with a snort he plunged ahead to w ider trail- Jim ’s heart had leaped to his throat. H e heard thud of hoofs behind, a heavy, siiddery rumble. Looking back he saw the gray horse leap from a sec­ tion of wall, beginning to gap out­ w ards to solid ground ahead. Next in­ stant six feet of the trail, close up to the bluff, slid down In an avalanche. “Close shave for us all!” cried Jim, huskily. Right a t his feet a red torrent rushed with a wrestling, clashing sound from out a deep-walled gorge of splintered, rocking walls. This w as a tributary, a vicious child of the hideous D irty Devil. Il barred Jim ’s progress. T hirty paces to the fore, on the widest part of the bank, stood the pack horses. Jlm forced his startled gaze to the rear. No rider would ever come or go that way again. Jim dismounted carefully with Helen and, stooping as he moved under the leaning rock, he set her down on dry d u st “Is it the end for us?” H e did not answer. Folding the slicker into a pillow he laid her head •back upon It. Scrambling up, he re moved the saddle from Bay and dropped it under the shelter. Then, leading the horse, he stepped forward to where the gray and the pack ani­ mals had baited. TO BE CONTINUED.

Bill, the shorter of the two, asked, "How’s the world treating you these days?” "Rotten," w as the reply. “People are becoming too distrustful. I have not had a penny In my pocket for a week. I go up to a fellow who looks likely, and ask him if he could give me the price of a meal. AYhat does he do? Instead of slipping a coin into me hand, he takes me .round to a cafe and watches me eat the meal.” “AVhat are you growling about, then?” asked Bill.

They take one or two tab­lets the first night and repeat the third or fifth night if needed.How do CaIotabs help Nature throw off a cold? First, Calotabs are one of the most thorough and de­ pendable of all intestinal eliminants, thus cleansing the intestinal tract of the germ-laden mucus and toxines. Second, Calotabs are diuretic to the kidneys, promoting the elimination of cold poisons from the blood. Thus CaIotabs serve the double purpose of a purgative and diuretic, both of which are needed in the treatment of colds. Calotabs are. quite economical; only twenty-five cents for the family package, ten cents for the trim package. (Adv.) " S im o n iz M a k e s th e F in ish L a s t L o n g e r” Play safe!

This, too, is being done without any thought of these nags graduating into a circus from the everyday canters of life. In brief, 16 horses of the mounted patrol will do a “soft-shoe” dance for the edification of the police commis­ sioner. The term is easily explained. These horses have been prancing and keeping time to music a t the head of parades for years. “W hy not teach then some regular w altzes?” asked SergL Edward B.

This tiny bit of evidence started the investigators on the trail th a t finally led to H auptm ann’s a rrest and conviction, and th at finally brought him to the electric chair. F Prisoner’s Calm Breaks; He Weeps in Cell After Hearing Sentence. By W. C. W EBBER F LEMINGTON, N. j . — K ichard Bruno H auptm ann m ust die in the electric chair. A jury of his peers has found him guilty of m urder in the first degree w ithout recommen­ dation of mercy, thus ending the m ost sensational trial of modern history, and the cold, stolid Germ an carpenter m ust forfeit his life for th a t of the golden­ haired Lindbergh baby he is convicted of having m urdered after kidnaping the child on the night of M arch I, 1932. A lthough Justice Thom as W. Trench- ard imm ediately sentenced the defend­ ant to die during the week of M arch IS, it is possible th a t this m ay be de­ layed. A ttorney Edw ard J. Eeilly for the defense announced th a t an appeal would be taken and it is alm ost certain th a t this w ill stay the execution until late in May. The four women and eight men mak­ ing up the ju ry left the courtroom at 11:14 o’clock In th e morning. H our after hour passed w ith rum ors flying everywhere—“eleven to one for' convic­ tion”—“a deadlocked jury”—“holding out for acquittal.” A t 10:25 in the eve­ ning the bell on the H unterdon county courthouse begins tolling, the sound carrying fa r out over the Jersey hills. T he mob m assed in front of the court­ house starts yelling. H auptm ann is led in. H e talks to one of his law yers for a few minutes. Evidently the strain of w aiting for the verdict is beginning to tell on him as his face is dam p w ith perspiration. H is wife, the faithful Ann, whose belief in her husband’s innocence has never w avered, comes in and takes a seat near him. They exchange no words. H auptm ann sits staring straight ahead. Then the jury enters through the li­ brary door and takes its place in the ju ry box. The verdict is evident from the expressions on the jurors’ faces. T he women are all red-eyed w ith weep­ ing. They sit and w ait. Edw ard Kell- Iy stands nervously smoothing his hair Tyith his hand—his opponent, A ttorney G eneral W ilentz, whose vigorous pros­ ecution of this trial, has aroused the adm iration of veteran crim inal law yers everyw here, paces up and down as they w ait for the judge. Then the room becomes curiously still. The clerk calls the roll of the jury and the jurors stand in the box, and H auptm ann is ordered to stand also The clerk asks: “M r. Forem an, have you agreed upon a verdict?”C harles W alton, the forem an, a for­ m er baseball player, now a machinist, forty-four years old, answ ers: “W e have.”Walton reads the verdict: “W e, the jury, find the defendant, B runo 1K ichard H auptm ann, guilty of m urder in the first degree* Then he hands a little slip of paper to the c le rt who* reads it again, and “So say you all?” . (. ~ T here is a m urm ured chorus of Tes from the elgrht men and four women, but then the clerk calls the roll and each juro r replies th at his or her ver­ dict is "guilty of m urder in the first degree.” Bruno Hauptm ann H auptm ann resum es his seat. Then W ilentz briefly moves for immediate sentence of the defendant Justice T renchard orders H auptm ann to stand again, and in a m atter of fact tone of voice says: “The court will now proceed to im­ pose sentence. “It Is, therefore, the sentence of this court th a t the defendant shall be put to death during the week beginning M arch 18, 1935, in the m anner and place indicated by law. Xou are r» manded to the custody of the sheriff.” I t is all over. Nervy to the last, H auptm ann re­ ceives his death sentence w ithout out­ w ard demonstration. His guards begin mov­ ing tow ard the door. H auptm ann's eyesseek those of his w ife sit­ ting a t the counsel table trying to fight back her tears. H e says nothing, ju st looks a t her, and then dis­ appears through the door. It was not until he w as In his cell th at the man, whom Wil- entz said had “ice w ater in his veins,” cracked. Faced w ith the grim reality of the death penalty, he sat on the edge of his hard iron cot and wept. H is iron will had stood the strain as long as it could. Even the mob howling its approval of the death sentence would have felt sym pathy for Anni H auptm ann the plain, haggard woman, as she sat there m otionless while the jurors intoned: “Guilty of m urder In the first de­ gree.” The woman who clung to her hus­ band when all the world seemed to accuse him of this most horrible of crimes, the woman who had w orked in a bakery even after her husband had thousands of dollars of ransom money in his possession, who knew nothing of his ill-gotten hoard, kept her eyes straight ahead as the verdict w as an­ nounced. H er eyes were fixed only on her husband as he went through the door on the journey th at will finally lead to the grim death cham ber of Trenton prison. Then only did the tears of relief come. N either Colonel Lindbergh nor the members of his family were in the courtroom as the death sentence was passed. A close friend of the family explained that after the judge had read his charge to the jury, Lindbergh felt th at he had done everything possible, and th at there w as nothing to be gained by his presence. The family aw aited the verdict at the home of M rs. Lindbergh’s mother, and news was phoned them direct from Flemington. L ittle hope was felt for H aupt­ m ann’s acquittal after Justice Tren- chard’s charge to the jury w as read. The justice told the jurors they could return three possible verdicts—m urder in the first degree, the sam e w ith rec­ ommendation of life im prisonm ent or acquittal. B rief and to the point, the final charge paid particular attention to the disputed reliability of the im portant state witnesses, Dr. John F. “Jafsie” Condon and Amandus Hochmuth, and to the defense theories th at a gang per­ petrated the kidriaping and th at the dead Isidor Fisch gave H auptm ann the ransom money. On the state’s im portant ladder evi­ dence, the court asked the jurors: “Does not the evidence satisfy you th a t a t least a p art of the wood from which the ladder w as built came out of the flooring of the attic of the de­ fendant?” "If you find th at the m urder was David T. W ilentz committed by the defendant in perpe­ trating a burglary it is m urder in the first degree, even though the killing was unintentional.’* The court added: “If there is a reasonable doubt that the m urder w as committed by the de­ fendant in perpetrating a burglary, he m ust be acquitted. “H you find the defendant guilty of m urder in the first degree you may, if you see fit, by your verdict and as a part thereof, recommend imprisonment a t hard labor for life.” An Important point brought up In the charge w as the place of murder, 'the court charged the jury that it m ight conclude the baby’s sleeping gar­ m ent was strip p e d from it at the point where the nurse, Betty Gow1 said she found its thumbguard. This w as im portant to the s ta te b ecau se the baby’s body was found in Mercer county, and H au p tm a n n was charged with murder in Hunterdon county. In reviewing t h e ransom negotiations, and Doctor Condon’s part, Justice Treneliard said: “Of course, if there is in the minds of the jury a reasonable doubt as to the truth of any testimony, such testi­ mony should be rejected, but, upon the whole, is there any doubt in your mind as to the reliability of Doctor Condon’s, testimony?” Trenchard said: “It is argued that Colonel Lindbergh could not have identified that voice and that it is unlikely that the defendant would have talked with Condon. Well, those questions are for the determ ina­ tion of this jury.” x As to the gang theory, the court said: “It is argued by defendant’s counsel that the kidnaping and m urder was done by a gang w ith the help or con­ nivance of some one or more servants of the Lindbergh or Morrow house­ holds. “Now, do you believe that? Is there any evidence in this case whatsoever to support any such conclusion? “Does it not appear that many thou­ sands of dollars of ransom bills were found in his garage, hidden in the walls or under the floor, that others were found on his person when he was arrested and others passed by bin: from tim e to time. “The defendant says that these ran­ som bills, moneys, were left w ith him by one Isidor Flsch1 a man now dead. Do you believe that?” H e told the jury it might also con­ sider the evidence that shortly after the delivery of the ransom Hauptmann began to purchase stock and spend more freely. Then he asked: “Do you believe bis testimony that the money was left with him in a shoe box, and that it rested on the top shelf In his closet for several months? “H is wife, as I recall it, said she never saw the box and I do not recall that any witness, excepting the de­ fendant testified that they ever saw the shoe box there.” The judge first told the jury it must be guided by the principles of law, which he would set forth. He added th at they were the sole judges of evi­ dence. Hauptm ann w ill aw ait his execution date in the Trenton death house. Elaborate precautions have been taken to prevent suicide or jail break at­ tem pt on the part of the prisoner. Asked w hether H auptm ann would be perm itted to mingle with others in death row, the w arden declared that other prisoners would “tear him to pieces.” Hauptm ann’s cell is only a few steps from the gray door that leads to the death chamber, a barren room containing the electric chair. The walls of the cham ber are a glar­ ing white, the concrete floor a battle­ ship gray. The chair stands in the rear of the room, under two flood lights. Unless efforts of his attorneys to obtain a retrial are successful, it is in this room that Hauptm ann will end the long tra il.th a t began on M arch I, 1932, when the Lindbergh baby was stolen as it lay sleeping in its crib in the Hopewell home. On A pril 2, Dr. John F. Condon established contact with the kidnaper and paid the 550,- 000 ransom to “John” in St. Ray­ mond’s cemetery, the Bronx. The search for the child was resum ed when the kidnaper failed to keep his part of the pact, and the baby w as found, slain, in a thicket grave five miles from the Lindbergh estate. D uring the year of 1933, the search continued with apparent failure to find any trace of the criminal, and it was not until September 19, 1932, that Bruno Eichard H auptm ann was ar­ rested in New York’s B ronx; within a week $14,600 in ransom bills were found hidden in his garage. The Bronx county grand jury indicted H auptm ann for extortion on Septem­ ber 26. H auptm ann’s fight to escape extradition to New Jersey to answ er a charge of m urder w as unsuccessful and on October 19, he was taken to ■Flemington. The trial began'on January 2, 1935, and ' on February 13, he was found guilty and sentenced to the electrlt chair. Some believe H auptm ann will talk now that he has been convicted. Many have felt that he had accomplices in the crime and th at only the fact that his story would implicate him has sealed his lips. W hether this will hap­ pen, and w hat the results' of such testimony would be, can only be con­ jectured. No one knows. Perhaps he will g o .to his death, his Hpa sealed, still a man “with ice w ater in his veins.”O, Western Newspaper Union.

GOLDEN TEXT—Wherefore putting; Iway lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor: for we are members 9ne of another. Ephesians 4:25. PHIMART TOPIC — Peter’s Friend Helps People. JUNIOR TOPIC—Peter Stands for Truth and Honesty. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP­ IC—The Sin of Lying. TOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP­ IC—Modern Forms of Hypocrisy. I. Ananias and Sap|>hira (Acts 5:1-11). The new community formed after Pentecost is now for the Ilrst time called the Church. Since the Chris­ tians have now broken with Judaism the success of the new community de­ pends upon its gaining recognition. The Church is now superseding the Mosaic economy. It was now to be God’s dwelling place, as hitherto it had been in the Tabernacle and Temple. Their sanctity was now heing trans­ ferred to the Church. This fact the Church itself m ust learn as well as the Jew ish people who surrounded it. 1. Their sin (vv. I, 2). It was a hypocritical imitation of the generous act of Barnabas (4:36, 37). Because of the particular distress of the early Church following its open rupture with Judaism, Its members for a time had a “community of goods.” This was not universal nor permanent. Ananias kept back a part of the proceeds from the sale of his land, while pretending to have brought it all. His wife was a partner in i t They wanted the honor of generosity without paying the price thereof. 2. Their judgm ent (vv. 3-10). Physical death was visited upon An­ anias and Sapphira for their sin. They lied to the Boly Ghost in keeping back a part of the price of their land. Tliey were not obliged to sell their land or, having sold it, to bring any of their money and place It in the common fund. People today are walking in the way of Ananias and Sapphira when they make a profession of Christianity for temporal gain and pleasure. Preaching the sermons of Moody, Spurgeon, etc., without giving credit is another form of this evil. God is passing judgm ent upon many for their sins of this kind (I Cor. U :2?-30). 3. The effect (w . 11-16). a. G reat fear came upon the Church and upon all who heard of these things (v. 11). The Church should be re­ garded as holy because of its being the very dwelling place of the Most High God. Irreverence is an outstanding sin of this age. b. M ultitudes of men and women were added to the Lord (w . 14, 15). The fame of Peter was spread far and wide, so that the people were anxious to come under his shadow. The proper recognition of the holiness of the Church, the body of Christ, w ill bring many to C hrist for salvation. c. Hypocrites did not dare to join (v 13). The vindication ot the holi­ ness'of the Church deterred none but hypocrites from joining. Na unre- generate person and nothing unhal­ lowed has any place in the Church. II. Simon the Sorcerer (Acts 8:18- 24). 1. H is wicked request (vv. 18, 19). W hen Simon saw that Peter’s power to work wonders exceeded his own and that this power was received through the laying on of hands, be offered money for the gift. This act revealed bis hypocrisy. He professed faith In C hrist and was baptized, and even followed the apostles for a selfish end. Traffic In sacred tblng3 Is called “Simony,’’ from the name of this sor­ cerer. Making merchandise of Chris­ tianity Is committing the sam e sin. Using the name of C hrist for the pur­ pose of gain Is to be guilty of this sin. 2. Peter’s severe rebuke (w . 20-22). a. “Thy money perish with thee.” This Implies that Peter’s judgment was that Simon was unregenerate and that he himself was in the way of perish­ ing. b. “Thy heart Is not right In the sight of God.” One whose inner Ufe delights In God could not seek the Spirit’s power for selfish reasons. C. “Repent of thy wickedness and pray to God for forgiveness.” While Peter recognized that this man was unsaved, he did not regard him as be­ yond the hope of salvation, but urged him to turn from his sin and ask for forgiveness. d. “Thou art In the gall of bitter­ ness and In the bond of Iniqulty." The one and only thing for this man to do was to repent and sue for forgiveness. Simon requested Peter’s prayer to the end that he might escape divine judg­ ment.

P I C K A R D ©, Western Newspaper Union. S. Clay PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT extended no olive branches toward the Amer­ ican Federation of Labor when he signed the cigarette industry code, which labor leaders had declared was “un- s a t i s f a ctory.” The breach between the ad­ ministration and labor is daily growibg wider. The code, finally signed after months of argument between the tobacco industry and labor, calls for a forty- hour week and mini­ mum wages from 25 to 40 cents an hour. La­ bor leaders also ob­ jected to the presence of S. Clay Wil­ liams, administration board chairman, who they declare is not in sympathy with labor. The President issued a curt statem ent informing the federation council that W illiams' services had been satisfactory and that he had no intention of removing him without cause. The executive council of the federa­ tion, composed of William Green and presidents of the federation of seven­ teen international unions, states that some present administration labor poli­ cies are bringing increased unrest among workers which may reach the danger point of widespread strikes un­ less corrected. Thus far, the President seems to have had the best of the argum ent Labor leaders, however, are expected to push the fight for a “prevailing wage” clause In work relief legislation, thus endangering the administration program. JNQUIRIES into the causes of the T "quiver" which ripped away the two gas cells and caused the giant dirigible “Macon” to plunge into the Pacific has Leen started. Even the surviving 81 officers and men of the “Sky Queen” are not certain just what caused the catastrophe, although L ieut Com. H. V. Wiley, survivor of the Akron dis­ aster and master, of the Macon, was said to have "some ideas” about it. His ,findings will be placed before the board of inquiry. Some hints were made about struc­ tural weakness of the $2,450,000 craft, but naval officers refused to discuss the subject In W ashington President Roosevelt said there would be no im­ m ediate move to replace the ship. Survivors of the crash told a dra­ m atic story of heroism. Cruising along a t a speed of 63 knots, the ship twice lowered its elevation to avoid rain squalls. A short ja r was fe lt the ship began to take a bow-up position, and Commander Wiley received a re­ port that one of the 12 helium gas cells w as gone. The Macon then rose rapidly to 4,600 feet, its nose stick­ ing up at a sharp angle and then slow­ ly sank toward the ocean as the crew made frantic efforts to right the lurch­ ing c ra ft As it h it the ocean the crew slid down ropes or dived into the heavy swells. Men swam through flame where flares had tgnfted oil and gaso­ line, others rescued companions whose lifebelts were lost or broken in long leaps into the sea. The sailors watched the ship crumble under the waves and a t last disappear. Only two men were lo st Cruisers rushed to the scene and picked up the survivors. D R U N O HAUPTMANN will die In the electric chair a t Trenton, N. J., during the week of March 18, unless attorneys secure a stay of execution by filing an appeal. The prisoner showed no trace of emotion as the jurors announced their verdict and did not break under the strain until after Justice Trenchard had pronounced sen­ tence, and he was returned to the celL There, his iron will gave way and he sobbed as he sat on his hard iron cot. The jurors required more than 12 hours to reach their verdict Two of the women were said to have held out for a recommendation of mercy which would have resulted in a life sentence for the man accused of the murder of the Lindbergh baby, but there was no mention of mercy when the verdict was read. P R E SID E N T ROOSEVELT eked out a close victory, in the senate appro­ priations committee, when the amend­ ment to cut $2,000,060,000 off the ad­ m inistration’s $4,880,000,000 work re­ lief bill was defeated by the close vote of 12 to 11. Administration forces scored another victory by the adoption of a compromise amendment to the proposal of Senator Pat M cCarran for the payment of prevailing wages on all federal projects. W itnesses testified th a t McCarran’s amendment would have increased the cost of putting 3,500,000 men to work by more than $2,000,000,000 and would have defeat­ ed the purpose of the bill. M cCarran did not press his amend­ ment in committee when a substitute was offered, but insists that he will do so on the senate floor. The fight the American Federation of .Labor is mak­ ing on this point Is expected to have considerable influence with a number of senators, who fear the w rath of their labor constituents. The substitute, proposed by Senator Richard B. Russell, and adopted by a vote of 14 to 9, provides that the President shall establish the prevailing rates of pay whenever an investigation discloses that the federal wages of $50 a month are affecting adversely the rates on work of a sim ilar nature. The m atter is entirely up to the President, however, and he can take any action or withhold any investigation, just as he sees fit, which may mean much or nothing. PR E M IE R MUSSOLINI found Em- P peror Haile Selassie of Ethiopia is a man not easily frightened. Il Duce’s demands for indemnities for Italian colonials killed on the borders of Ital­ ian Somaliland were politely, but firm­ ly, refused. The Ethiopians, undis­ mayed by the vast preparations Italy has been making, declared they would fight to their last drop of blood to pre­ serve their independence, that they would not apologize or make repara­ tions for what they maintain is merely defense of their own country. This puts Mussolini In an em barrassing po­ sition. He must either send an ex­ peditionary force against the Ethio­ pians, or back down after mobilizing troops, and that would be a bitter pill for the Italian dictator to swallow. Chancel or H t er C h a n c e l l o r h it l e r emerged from his hermit-like seclusion with a number of counter-proposals which he offered in reply to the Franco Brit- ish proposals. D e r Fuehrer, a govern- Ti- ment spokesman stat­ ed, would definitely re­ fuse to join any pact guaranteeing Austria's independence unless “the will of the Aus­ trian people is first consulted” by means of a plebiscite to de­ termine w hether that nation desires an “anschluss” (union) with the G erm an reich. H itler will also follow Poland’s stand, and will have nothing to do with the French-sponsored eastern securities agreem ent “if it is to be based on mu­ tual assistance," although he is willing to join an air pact provided it allows Germany an air force equal to Soviet Russia’s. H itler seems particularly anx­ ious to avoid any agreement which would bind Germany to Russia and per­ haps result in aiding Russia in event of w ar between that country and Japan. From the tone of Hitler’s demands, he evidently did not entirely believe that France and G reat Britain were not preparing some trap for him. The H itler reply demands that Germany must be given absolute equality of armaments before anything else can be discussed, and that Germany will ne-, gotiate an air pact if her relations with Soviet Russia are considered, and if England, France, Belgium and Italy agree to consult each other before any action is taken. He also insists that the general question of disarmament is allied with the air pact and must be settled at the same time. When notified that Der Reichfuehrer would make reservations, official B rit­ ish sources indicated that Germany must either accept or reject the agree­ ment in its entirety, and stated partial acceptance would not be agreeable to Great Britain. All of which may be true, or it may be just the old horse- trading spirit which seems to break out in the best diplomatic circles. ISPATCHES from Bolivia, which ^ must be taken with several grains of salt, indicate that the Bolivians are meeting with success in defending Villa Montes, th,eir last im portant stronghold in the disputed Gran Chaco, and that the scissors-like offensive of General Estigarribia, Paraguayan com­ mander iu chief, is seriously menaced. It was reported the Bolivians, strug­ gling desperately to relieve the pres­ sure on Villa Montes, bad defeated the Paraguayans in the Nancorainza sec­ tor “after three days of bitter fighting.” This offensive, it was thought, might force Estigarribia’s northern wing to retreat: IJxRANCIS BIDDLE and his national labor relations board took a hand In the controversy between the admin­ istration and the American Federation of Labor by offering a suggestion that section 7-A of the recovery act “should be clarified.” William Green and his fellow leaders of the federation have long contended that the clause, guar­ anteeing employees rights to bargain collectively, should be enlarged to specify that the majority of employees should have the right to choose the spokesmen for all employees, and that company unions should be barred. The national labor board, which submitted a report of its first six months’ work, defended the majority rule at length. As is well known, the administration desires section 7-A continued un­ changed in the new NRA law which is in the process of making. BRISBANE THIS WEEK M ussolini W arlike Suprem e C ourt Pow er AU H appy T here L earning How to Spend M ussolini has found the opportunity to show the world w hat it means when modern “R o m e” starts moving.

Maybe he is, but he will encounter a problem that King Solomon’s wisdom could not solve for him when he meets M ussolini’s airplanes. If wise, Selassie will pay the indem­ nity that Mussolini demands. As a practical business man, Mussolini al­ ways asks a little soothing cash. He got some from Greece. Also, Selassie m ust salute the Italian flag, which costs nothing. Mexico would not do that. Arthur Brisbane One question may surprise you con­ cerning Supreme court decisions set­ ting aside laws passed by the congress and signed by the President, on the ground that congress, in passing the law, had exceeded its constitutional authority. This is the question: Are those Supreme court decisions in them­ selves unconstitutional? When the Supreme court, sometimes by a narrow margin of five to four, declares a law unconstitutional and void, is it exceeding its constitutional authority? W here in the Constitution of the U nited States do you find authority for the Supreme court power to overrule congress and the President In the mak­ ing of laws? This absence of authority is no accident. Those that w rote the Constitution, after long arguing, dis­ puting and many concessions, knew, presumably, w hat they wanted the Con­ stitution to say. And they did not w ant it to give the Supreme court the power to veto laws, that it now as­ sumes and exercises. , In London, John Puckering, fifty- eight, apparently dead, was revived after five minutes.

Pickering says heaven is filled with a “happy crowd.” There were no children. “All were dressed as on earth.” No moihs in heaven, of course; no depression either.

From Ireland comes Jack Doyle, via M ayfair, London, 6 feet 4, handsome face, nice smile, big muscles, telling the truth about himself, whatever the damage to his m odesty: “I am not like the usual lowbrow fighter. I’ll go up and up and up to the very -top.” Mr. Doyle sings “W hen Irish Eyes Are Smiling” very sweetly. Mr. Max Baer, at present prize-fight champion, cannot sing well, but he, too, has self- confidence: “Jack Doyle’s prophecies are all very well. He may go ’up and up and up,’ but sooner or later on the road up he will meet me, and then be will go down and down and down.” Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., head of General Motors, announces that 30,000 employ­ ees, under the company’s saving and investment plan, will have $11 ,000,000 cash divided among them .' The em­ ployee who saves $25 a month, the maximum, $300 a year, gets back his $300, plus $321.52, contributed by the company, including $114 for interest It is rather difficult to persuade men to “arise, ye prisoners of starvation,” and “throw off their chains,” when one of the chains is attached to an “$11,- 000,000 melon. Germany plans an army of 400,000 men, small compared with the kaiser’s army. But the real fighting machine hereafter will be located In the air, and, besides, German recruits for the 400,000 army will serve only one year, instead of four, giving a rapid turn­ over of trained fighters. At the end of five years Germany would- have 2,000,- 000 men trained to fight. It is likely, however, that w hatever is going to hap­ pen will happen long before five years are up. ©l Kins Features Syndicate, Inc,WNU Service. National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart W ashington, D. C.National Press Building W ashington--It begins to appear that the Roosevelt adm inistration has returned from its ex- H o m e A ffa ir s cursion into foreign to th e F o re Ports and ls nc^ , ready to engage In rehabilitation of domestic affairs to the exclusion of international problems, ex­ cept the m atter of reciprocal treaties. It is true that Secretary H ull of the D epartm ent of State, Secretary Roper of the D epartm ent of Commerce, and Senator Borah, In the senate, have talked about foreign affairs in one way or anotner, but none of them occa­ sioned any observation or suggestions from the W hite House by their asser­ tions. Among the occurrences in the re­ cent period th at tend to show how the adm inistration again is putting home affairs to the forefront are the new banking bill, the plans for recovery revival under -the five billion dollar public works bill, and the determ ina­ tion of house and senate lately, under a W hite House spur, to clip the wings of, If not wholly eradicate, the so-called holding companies. Attention might be called also to the uprising in the De­ partm ent of A griculture where Secre­ tary W allace, and A gricultural A djust­ m ent A dm inistrator Chester Davis com­ bined a few days ago to elim inate left- wing members of their respective staffs. They did it summarily, but the end is not yet, either as respects plans of M essrs. W allace and Davis, or the yelps th at may be expected from the rad­ icals who were ousted. The general inform ation is that, In shelving foreign m atters, Mr. Roose­ velt has determined to lay aside the SL Lawrence w aterw ay controversy until “pressing domestic m atters” are dis­ posed of. Almost in the same breath it can be said that new activity has been disclosed on the p art of the New D ealers to spread their doctrine into the states and establish, if possible, uniform laws everywhere concerning privately owned utilities such as elec­ tricity and gas. W hile no one will say so, it is the understanding that consid­ erable pressure Is being placed behind the effort to get state legislatures to pass uniform public utilities bills, meas­ ures which have been drafted In the Public W orks adm inistration here. * • • Probably as im portant as any legis­ lation that has gone to congress in re­ cent m onths is the N e w B a n k in g new banking bill. It B ill w as transm itted to congress .in a most unspectacular manner. There w as no out-and-out endorsem ent by the W hite House, nor was the sponsoring of the draft made clear. The legislation was dropped into the house hopper the day after Representative Steagall, chair­ man of the house committee on bank­ ing and currency, had given out his own summarization. Chairman Fletcher of the senate committee on banking and currency received the bill the same day as Mr. Steagall and immediately w ent into.a huddle with himself behind closed doors to study the d ra ft L ater he announced with apparent pleasure that it was a great piece of legislation. Now that the bill has been printed and is available for public inspection, a perfect furore has been aroused. The conservative critics began to squawk Immediately that the m easure proposes to destroy the Federal Reserve system and concentrate on power of credit and currency expansion or contraction. In the hands of a small group in the Treasury they contend that this am ounts to establishm ent of a central bank and that, under our political sys­ tem, a central bank would mean an un­ stable currency. W hat more could there be then, they ask, to destroy confidence In the currency which we use? New Dealers, In defense of this new banking legislation, have been given to making wise-cracks about the Old Deal­ ers, who, they assert, desire to see con­ ditions of 1928 and 1929 repeated. They cite, with some justification it seems to me, that central banks exist in most of the m ajor countries of the world and th at their service has not been a bad thing at all. Further, the New D ealers argue that the political capital of the United States is in Washington, and the financial capital has been In New York. Why, they ask, should there be such a division? In between these two schools of thought are sound money advocates and courageous conservatives who take the position that the bill has many good qualities and that it likewise has many provisions definitely to be avoid­ ed. You have heard very little expres­ sion of opinion from this type because, It is apparent, they are giving the m easure close study. They will be heard from later when the legislation is taken up by the respective commit­ tees of the house and senate and it Is made to appear that some changes surely will resu lt « * * To summarize the banking legisla­ tion—and I think it is 6f param ount Centralized Ifterest to every onec e n tr a liz e d because it touches the C o n tro l currency and credit end likely to result from fh!elegidatton of contro1 in W ashingtonof the very nerve center of business. X V t f l pw * to establish „ *« called an open m arket eommit- to W ashington and to include as members of this com m ittee three mem­ bers of the Federal R eserve board. The two rem aining m em bers would come from Federal R eserve banks. From this it is seen th a t the R eserve board becomes the dom inant body. It takes no stretch of the im agination to recognize the possibilities. M embers of the R eserve board, while they are ap­ pointed for a term of ten years, some­ tim es resign or- die off. It im m ediately becomes possible, therefore, to m ake the Federal R eserve board a purely political body dom inated by the Presi­ dent of the U nited States. The function of the open m arket committee, as proposed in the bill, is to order the purchase or sale of govern­ m ent securities in the open m arket. If these securities are bought, the Re­ serve banks issue currency for them and they increase the am ount of money in circulation, thereby easing c red it If the banks sell bonds which they have in their portfolios, the currency paid for those bonds obviously is taken out of circulation and th a t action result# in a contraction or reduction of the am ount of credit available. If, for example, the occupant of the W hite House a t any tim e happens to be an out-and-out inflationist, it is easy to see how governm ent bonds can be absorbed by the Reserve banks and new currency put in circulation In w hatever volume the adm inistration policies require. A nother phase of the bill would al­ low national banks and state banks th at are members of the Federal R e­ serve system to m ake loans on real estate for a tw enty-year term . Five years is the present lim itation. One has only to go back for an exam ination of causes of hundreds of bank failures In recent years to discover th a t the five-year lim itation probably increased the m ortality am ong otherw ise sound banks to a greater extent than any other factor. In other words, to grant a bank the privilege of m aking a loan for tw enty years m eans th a t such a bank ties up an equal am ount of depos­ itor's money In a place from which it cannot be suddenly recalled if the de­ positors take a sudden notion to w ith­ draw substantial sum s from th a t bank. * * * T here is another section of the m eas­ ure which I think is w orthy of close F e d e ra l Reserve W o rfA y o f exam ination. It pro- F ra m m a fio o poses to combine the jobs of governor and agent, and th a t the bank policies should be executed’by the governor who Is selected by the bank board of directors. This provided som ething of a dual control, a check and balance on the exercise of power. Now, however, the effort is to be m ade to combine the jobs and m ake the bead of the bank a strictly governm ent representative. T hat course naturally is in line with the Roosevelt program of extending and expanding federal authority. The President has constantly increased the scope of power and influence exercised from W ashington. The current offering is accepted everyw here as bringing under federal domination completely the banking system of this nation. It does so because none can deny that the Federal R eserve banks hold a dub over the heads of private bankers wher­ ever they m ay be. So I believe it Is a fair statem ent to say th at Mr. Roosevelt, or those who are responsible to him, is reaching out to amplify the control of credit from W ashington which w as initiated through the Reconstruction Finance corporation, the Home Owners* Loan corporation, and other leading agen­ cies. The Federal Reserve system w as set up, according to the debate on the m easure in congress a t th at time, to decentralize credit control and break the grip which New York exercised over the volume of c red it Now, appar­ ently, it Is all coming back to W ash­ ington, probably to be exercised by pol­ iticians instead of men w ith banking training. In connection w ith the adm inistra­ tion’s attention to domestic affairs and the consequent legislative changes, at­ tention m ight well be centered on the m eaning of some of the moves. One W ashington observer w rote in bis news­ paper the other day th at the adm inis­ tration w as renewing its notes a t the bank. W hat he referred to w as the ex­ tension of life of the Reconstruction Finance corporation and the pumping of m ore blood into the veins of the Home Owners’ Loan corporation. Something sim ilar has occurred with respect to the Reconstruction Finance corporation which has been given new life and about $350,000,000 in new mon­ ey by an act of congress Then, President Roosevelt has asked for renew al of the life of the N ational Recovery adm inistration aod for re-en­ actm ent of the N ational Industrial Re­ covery act. both of which expire next June 16. ■ As a result of these m aneuvers a good m any observers are of the opin­ ion that the recovery efforts have not been as successful a s their optim istic sponsors had predicted a year ago. Renewal of these stop-gap agencies, ex- power here and there, and the initiation of new experim ents are given as reasons for the belief that uncertainty exists and satisfactory progress tow ard recovery is still mow apparent than IeaL Ik Wtttern Newaoaper Unio^ FE R T IL IZE R HELPS F ish Larger and more fish mav h duced by using farm fertilw L, W(l w ater, it Is reported In <— . w ith tests conducted in u - necuH T he fish do not eat the P h ^ aait and lim e contained in the fe—01*1 T he gain In fish, in size ard i", her, comes by the indirect - first giving U ie fertilizer to a , 01 rine plants and then Ietflrc u.' e at th e plants.—Popular Mech M agazine. c"a“i» A CHILD’S LAXATIVE SHOULD BE U Q II (Ask any doctor) F o r your own comfort, and for I children’s safely and future you should read this: tJ T he bowels cannot be Mped i,I regularity by any laxative that can't be regulated as to dose.

J.. w ho slapped his baby three-and a half m onths old, when it refused to take m ilk from a bottle and the child died. D octors say the child's health was poor, th at it had an ear m alady which infested its brain and probab Iy would have caused its death in a few weeks. S trange as it m ay ap­ pear, there seem s to be no public indignation against V ater. H isw ite says it was an “ accideut” th at he loved the baby and didn’t m ean to h urt it. B ut it is adm itted th at he struck it, and the fact th at the child was sick and likely to die anyw ay but seem s to em phasize the brutali­ ty. H e was under great m ental strain,'it is explained, because of the sick child and he was w ithout em ­ ploym ent. B ut w ith all th at the striking of a sick child, a three- m onths old baby because it didn’t take food as expected, seem s w ith­ out the pale. If som ebody would slap the daddy’s head near.off, say w ith an ax e or som e sim ilar - effec­ tive w eapon, th at m ight not help the situation w hich is beyond help, so tar sis th e dead baby is concern­ ed—better dead w ith a parent like th at— b u t it w ould be com m ensur­ ate w ith th e crim e.—E x .
