(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) i CHICAGO NEW YORK BOS™O: More Relief Urgent It is not too late for the meinbers of the City Commission to give the recommendations of the Tax Com- mittee of the Association of Com- merce additional consideration. Real) relief for the citizens of Bismarck |enforce the laws, strictly but fairly.| are contained in the suggestions of this body and the necessity for action should be apparent to one. The reductions suggested made after due consideration. Presi- dent Forrest Davis, in selecting his committee, membership of which was enlarged to include three of the ¢: heaviest tax payers, sought to have all interests adequately represented. The committee is to be*commended for their fearless and independent action, as are Mayor Lenhart and Commissioner Wachter for support- ing most of the contentions of this committee. : True a cut of slightly more than $5,000 in the budget has been made for which the citizens are thankful, but that is only a beginning and the good work of easing the tax burden of Bismack's citizens should go for- ward. Adoption of the committee's rec- ommendations would have resulted in a saving of approximately $30,000 without injuring materially public service or embarrassing any depart- ments. ‘The fact that this demand comes from all political factions and was a harmonious effort to secure greater economy in the administration of our city affairs is highly significant. It is refreshing to note that the people of Bismarck are taking a deeper in- terest in the manner in which their tax dollars are being spent. They are trimming their own business and household budgets to the very core and many citizens are anxious that their tax bills in these times of stress be reduced accordingly. ‘There is still time to meet the de- mands of a very considerable major- ity of the citizens of Bismarck. y= Safety Suggestions ‘Three elements must be considered ‘n highway accidents—the car, the} road, and the driver. According to Sidney J. Williams of the National Safety Council, each of these ele- ments sometimes predominates, but in general the car is a lot safer than the highway, and the highway is a Jot safer than the driver. © Statistics of past years cast inter- esting light on the accident situa- tion.

During the last three years the number of commercial vehicles involved in fatal accidents has gone down 19 per cent, while the number of private cars so involved has gone up 37 per cent. ‘This reflects the beneficial results of education and supervision of drivers by their employers. Also, statistics show that recent increases have been entirely in the country. In cities the battle is being waged on even Mr. Williams has put forward nine suggestions for reducing accidents.

Mrs. Cleespaugh was still in Italy but she had cabled her son to open the place and recall the servants. Clive had wanted to take Liane south but the doctor had advised against it. He had said she was not strong enough for travel yet. So she returned to the big rose- VAN the ‘the e to much kad happened and how much older and wiser she felt! She tried to talk to Clive one day, to tell him something of what was in her heart, But she was still too weak for this. The tears brimmed over and her voice broke when she tried. Clive had been wrung by her frailty, her humility on this oc- casion. “Please don’t try to talk about our affairs now,” he had pleaded. “Later we can straighten every- thing out. Don’t worry. Think of me as a big brother, a guard- jan, anything you like. Only Dlease don’t fret.” “You're too good to me,” she had managed to say brokenly. She did not see him often these days. He went to the city on an early train and came out on a late one. Usually she dined in her room. During the morning she was wheeled out into the sun and for long hours she sat wrapped in a rug, her hands the merest transparencies against her furs, contemplating the loveliness around her. The lawns were be- ginning to show a hint of the green lJuxusiance which would later overrun them. Nora brought roses from the small conservatory almost daily. Clive’s attitude was perfect. He was all consideration, friendly Kindness. She might have been any girl, consigned to his affec- tiomate care. He might have been an elderly uncle. hunt She could not tell exactly when ‘ow |She began to resent this attitude J of his. The feeling developed so gradually that she did not actual- ly know when it had started. In May, when she was perfectly well again, she began to wonder a lit- tle jealously why he stayed in town so many evenings. Once he spoke, quite casually, of Tressa, “You've seen her?” “Oh, yes. She dropped in one day about a week ago to ask my advice about some of her invest- ments. She has no head for bust- ess, you know.” “I see.” Liane said no more, "5 go- but the tumult of her feeling had astonished and appalled her. juriel he tem- The Clive, round whis- place, here. show He Tell own.” 1 rece could be more natural, she asked herself, than that Clive should admire so warm and glowing, so vibrant a woman as Tressa Lord? A man _ wanted something more of his wife, sure- ly, than a cold handclasp and an impersonal friendship. Clive would be perfectly within his rights if he asked for his freedom. Tressa was of his own world. She had shown, early and often, that she loved him. Fiercely Liane decided she did not wish to let him go. She acknowledged her failure as a wife but shrank from the idea of letting him go so tamely. This stern-lipped young man with the blue eyes, so broadshouldered and well groomed in his English tweeds, so gentle and courteous, caught and held her fancy now. She wondered almost in terror what sort of woman she was to be so fickle, so changeable. Only a few months ago Van Robard bad ensnared her imagination. Now that spell was ended forever. Although she thought sometimes of Van with pain and regret there was no shadow of longing in her heart. “We can’t go on like this,” she thought in pity and terror, “It he wants me to let him go I must be decent enough to do as he asks. He deserves to be happy.” She wondered if Tressa was the one to bring Clive the happiness he deserved. Perhaps she was. Who could say? herself to the ordeal of speaking to Clive about this but always the words died on her lips before she could shape them. “Tomorrow,” she would say. “T'll talk to him about it tomor- row.” Clive had come home to dinner that night. They dined in state at the long table. Liane wore a dress which had been in her trous- seau, @ soft chiffon in tones of faint blues and lilac. The color had come back into her face. Her cheeks were round again and her eyes bright. Ellen, pleased at hav- ing the young pair to wait on once mor, tip-toed softly back and forth, bringing deliclous food on silver dishes.

I've been wanting to talk to you about all this for weeks.” His frown deepened. this?” “About us. Plans.”, Panic droveher on. After all he had ennounced in the begin- ning that their marriage was to be purely a business partnership. He had married her to escape the bondage of his mother domineer- ing. Now that he had come into his own there was no reason they need continue with this empty form of existence. It was @ mockery. “I don’t know what you mean, Liane.” + He said her name so seldom that the sound of it in his deep voice set her heart to pounding. She said, “I think it 1s wicked that you should still be bound to me. We're quits now. You'd be. better off without me.” He stared at her. What he thought was this, “She means she wants to be free.” “You saved my life,” Liane blundered on. “I owe you that. You have a right to whatever you want. If you are tired of this arrangement it’s natural enough. I should be the last one to re- proach you for that.” “She's thought it all out,” he reflected. “She's trying to save my face by putting it this way.” None of this showed in his face he answered in a voice strange- “Just as you like. Per- haps we had better see to the de- tails before mother comes back. We can get it all out of the way without any fuss and flurry.” She turned away to hide her tears. What she had expected of , this interview she did not exactly know.
