When the smoke and the dust die down, it is very prob- able that the whole fracas will prove to have been a net loss to 4 everyone concerned except Italy. 2 To understand why this is so, one need go back only to the } Italian invasion of Ethiopia. p i At that time the British statesmen beat their breasts and * announced that the empire would never stand for such high- * handed goings-on. A British official at Geneva told the League ‘ of Nations assembly that England was dedicating herself to “steady collective resistance” to all acts of aggression. The fleet went to the Mediterranean, there was much talk “of sanctions—and altogether, if harsh looks could kill, Mus- =solini would have died a thousand deaths, + But Mussolini is a singularly hard man to bluff. He went right ahead and conquered Ethiopia, as he said he was going to. ‘ The British did not try to stop him, but they let it be known | | that they would never recognize his conquest., And then along came the trouble in Spain. Mussolini drew cards in this game at once. Italian planes, ' munitions, and men went to Spain. Good relations with Ger- } many werd cemented by the creation of a common pro-Fascist \ front. It was hinted broadly that Italy would take over the ' Balearic islands from Spain. i So a change came over the face of the waters. The British | stopped talking about the wickedness of the Ethiopian con- { quest. Instead, they got their heads together with Italian statesmen, and presently an Anglo-Italian Mediterranean ac- cord was announced. Under the surface of the involved Janguage of this accord, Mussolini simply agreed that he wouldn’t take those Balearic | | islands, or approve of any territorial changes of which the | | British did not approve. In return, it is commonly understood ’ that he will get British recognition of the conquest of Ethiopia, ' together with British loans for development of the new colony. Now this was just what Mussolini wanted in the first place. school course and then a year in a school of chiropody is quite good enough to take care of my feet any time. I should have no more confidence in a ciliopoa or podiatrist who had spent two or three years in a chiropody school. A nurse who has had two years of training in a good hospital training school, is quite good enough to take care of me when I am ill. I should have no more confidence in a nurse who has been kept another year doing chamber work and the like for the shrewed men who run the hospital. A considerable share of the high cost of medical care must be charged up to hifalutin notions about the training of physicians. The medical schools today turn out, not physicians, but would-be specialists, and the scramble of these mis-cast specialists for a living brings Medicine pretty low. 4—Possible effect of labor warfare in speeding labor legislation by con- gress, 5—Likelihood that the LaFollette labor spy committee will turn loose its evidence by resuming hearings with General Motors witnesses on the stand, (Alleged evidence exists that spies searched clothing of workers for union cards or other “incrimin- ating” documents which, when found, were considered areges dismissal.) * C.LO, Has F.D. Favor Meanwhile, it is important to bear in mind that the automobile industry employes 1,500,000 workers, directly or indirectly; that Roosevelt is sym- | pathetic with the C. I. O. and would prefer a strong labor movement; and that the anticipated General Motors strike and the series of previous automobile supply strikes are not a well-planned, carefully organized movement. f If Lewis and the C. I. O. consciously planned a big auto strike at this time, no outsider in Washington has been able to discover it, Labor leaders say the C. I. O. movement received heavy impetus from the election, in which labor voted almost solidly for, Roosevelt and workers felt a new sense of power. Memory of Roosevelt's strong cam- paign stand for collective bargain- ing stiffened labor demand for it. According to union men, strikes in the industries supplying sutomobile companies broke out in Atlanta, Kansas City, Cleveland, and Flint only after men had been fired or dis- criminated against for union activity or membership, * % % Take Bit in Teeth Sitdown strikes in the supply in- dustries usually began without insti- gation from union leaders. Workers in the flat glass industry, for in- stance, practically ran away with their union chiefs, But the sitdown strikes enormously accelerated union organization, ac- cording to reports in Washington, As QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Strange Notions I have too much phosphate in my system.

It is doubtful whether you can get too much phosphorous. I don’t know how you arrive at the conclusion that your system contains too much phos- phate.

That he wanted to see Germany get a foothold there is even more doubtful—for under the surface Germany and Italy are still bitter rivals in central Europe. That he would let Italy get drawn into a war by way of Spain is most doubtful of all, But he acted as if he wanted all these things. As a result, everyone rallied around to be nice to him. And out of it all he gets—unless all the reports are mistaken—that British ap- proval of his Ethiopian venture which was the one thing he’ really needed. A clever card-player, this man Mussolini. Guarding Their Heritage It is not often that anyone can find any cheer in news from Madrid these days. But the revelation that a group of Spanish government officials has taken steps to protect many throughout the world. Next to its toll in human life, one of the most grievous costs of war lies in the destruction of great masterpieces passed on by a former generation. Ravaged lands and buildings can be restored, but a masterpiece that has been destroyed is gone forever. . Saving these precious heritages for posterity is a splendid work; an achievement that would be excelled only by one which would end the fratricidal war that is leaving a shameful blot on the pages of Spahish history. | . “Unworkables” The jobless men who hung around the outside of his foun- dry always interested Joe Hume Gardner, president of a Buf- falo, N.

Only seven of the group stuck it out, “They’re good work- ers, too,” says Mr. Gardner. “But there were several cases that were just plain ‘unworkables.’ They had one desire; to sit be- bind a desk and look at figures.” If Mr. Gardner’s little test proves anything, it is that, in never be entirely erased from the economic picture. ef Relief Chiseling At a time when thousands of Americans, in real need of “#24, are viewing with concern administration intentions to cut} down ‘on relief appropriations, it is aggray ng to read such Stories as those out of New York City and Sarazoia, Fla, _ Ina safe deposit box rented by a New York relief recipient, | $250,000 in diamonds were found.

AGAINST HIGH INTEREST Baldwin, N. Dak., Jan. 14, 1937. Eiitor, Tribune: Last month the county commission- ers called in the outstanding county warrants for which they have issued certificates of indebtedness to parties in Minneapolis at 5 per cent. In my opinion the interest thereon is al- together too high. It was true the county paid 6 per cent before, but did the commissioners ever give the peopel of Burleigh county a chance to buy those warrants even at 5 per cent? No, they did not. There al- ways was more demand for unpaid warrants than the treasurer could supply. It only takes $13.750 a year in interest out of “Bismarck and vicinity which the county commis- sioners should be credited with. A TAXPAYER. Swiss cheese wouldn't taste so good without the holes.

Immediately the household came under the juris- diction of the law. Tante Jose- phine’s death was due to apo- plexy, the coroner said, brought on by some unusual excitement— probably her nephew's death. The confessed murderer lay where he himself had fallen, a victim of the sacred knife, and when they went to the Indian’s room to accuse him of the crime, they found that he, too, was dead. Of a heart attack, the coroner decided again. Pearl John said that the reason for the murder of his older brothers had been fobbery, and there had been witnesses present when Ramon had confessed that. After a great deal of interview- ing of everyone in the house, and taking copious notes on the case, the officers departed, giving per- mission for all concerned to leave the mesa if they reported in Santa Fe for the inquest. se 2 AFTER the first shock over Ra- mon’s death, Angelique was able to tell how she had found the secret panel. She did not seem in the least abashed over her rea- scn for making Betty a prisoner. “I thought Ramon loved her,” she said simply, as though that wes explanation enough for any- thing. 4 Betty ran to her and impul- sively grasped her arm. “It came out all right, Angelique,” she said. “I forgive you. I wasn’t hurt.” Angelique shook her head. “It can never be anything but wrong for me to have sinned that way. Yl not know a moment’s peace Angelique,” Bob paused and looked at Betty. knew very well that there could be no one else for him. i been on Christmas Eve. How long ago that gay party seemed now, and what. tremendous changes had taken place since that Christmas NE ed snow storm had held them all prisoners in the hacienda! * Bob was thinking of this as he drew Betty into his arms and said softly, “When and if I can get a job, Betty, will you marry me? Some other fellow is probably nailing that big order of tires I started out to get, but there must be something open for a fellow who's desperately in love with the Prettiest, most wonderful girl in’ the world.” She did not answer for so long that Bob tilted up her face, in sudden panic. Then her smile re- assured him, “I was afraid you'd put it that way,” she said. “Re- member, I haven’t anything either so we might as well join our fabulous fortunes. But why put it on a money basis, Bob? I'd marry you if you never expected to have another penny as long as you live. Sometimes I’ve won- dered if I ever would meet the right man—all girls do wonder that, you know. I dream that Thunder Mesa was going to give me the finest fellow time a man gets the chance to hear someone else say what he’s always thought about himself, and when it comes from you, darling!” 2 see A POLITE cough from the door- way made them both turn. Pearl John came into the room, hesitatingly. “I know three’s a whole mob with you folks just now, but I’ve got to before you leave th has proms set spe take on as a husband if I can manage Ley 2 living for us both.” i 1 close this the rest. weather will soon attend to its finish, Probably the ancient pu- eblo walls will outlast the rest, which is really as it should be.” * Betty looked at them earnestly. “Do you remember what Profes- sor Shaw said when we went to his room? About queer things happening that he couldn’t ex- plain, where old ruins had been disturbed? Maybe that was why all this had to happen here on the mesa.” Neither of them answered, but something in their manner toid that they agreed. Bob expressed it when he said, with an effort to make his voice casual. “I guess Thunder Mesa has got the goat of us all. Maybe it would be best to give it back to the ghosts of those old-time Indians who seem to have staked out the first claim to the place.” see ‘THE crackling of the fire was the only sound in the room for a minute. Then Bob held out his hand. “That was mighty white of you, Pearl John—your offer, I you] Mean. Maybe we can make a go of it together.” “Then you're overlooking past differences, Bob?” Pearl John gripped his hand hard. “Things got pretty thick for me for a while. I guess I went off my bal- ance. But don’t call me Pearl John again—I'm going to drop that silly first name from now on. Never ° eee it, but the rest of the were si for traditi and all that.” ia ey A Mexican servant entered the room and reported that a car was ready to take anyone down from the mesa who wanted to leave. Later, as they drove away to- ward the mesa’s edge, Betty turned again to wave at John de Forest, standing in the gateway of the patio. The rays of the sun gilded the hacienda with an un- earthly radiance, making it more dream-like than ever. Even its young owner seemed the figment of some fanciful tale, wherein love and tragedy and drama were all woven into a fantastic Pate Betty turned and slipped her hand under Bob’s, resting on the steering wheel. He and their love, at least, were real, and the car was carrying them at a rapid pace straight into the greatest happiness she had ever imagined. ee turned as smiled down at 5 spray of h Pinned to her coat, “I'll poet another Christmas present quite like you, sweetheart,” he said.
