THAN THAT INDUSTRY APPROVES PRESIDENT’'S PLAN details, of President superv The principles, if not the Roosevelt's plan for Government ision of industry to eliminate ruthless competition, stabilize wages and bring about a restoration of the nation’s industrial establishment to the level of the Middle Twenties have already been approved by the country’s industrial captains. This action was taken at the annual meeting in Washington, D. C., early this month of the United States Chamber of Commerce which is generally acknowledged to represent Am- erican industry. Unanimously, that body adopted a resolution specifically endorsing the proposal for a program of supervision of industry by the Gov- ernment, Before it had taken that action, it had heard the President in a brief address outline the aims| of the Admpinistration and ask for the co-operation of industry to end the “unfair methods of competi- tion in many places, methods of cut-throat prices, methods that have led to a large measure of general chaos,” .and to translate solicitude for the welfare of particular units of industry into a solicitude for the welfare of industry as a whole The National Chamber, before concluding its ses- sions adopted the following resolution: Those who are best equipped to solve the problems of industry are those who them- selves are engaged in industry. They can provide measures which are so shaped to the conditions in each of the parts of our highly complex industrial system as to afford results beneficial to the public inter- est and avoid consequences that would follow endeavors from outside to apply arbitrary rules and that would bring widespread detri- ments, public and private. For common action that is timely our industries have trade associations through which they can act quickly, or which they can adapt for action. Each trade asso- ciation representative of its industry or branch, in accordance with its conditions and in conference with the appropriate agency of the Government, should be per- mitted to promulgate fair rules for indus- trial production and distribution, to improve the status of labor, the industries of the nation, and the public welfare. Federal legislation affording opportunity for this form of self-regulation under Gov- ernment supervision would produce condi- tions which would assure fair competitive opportunity to each enterprise and permit immediate increase in employment, raise earnings, and free the public from the burdens and detriments it inevitably suffers from the results of destructive competition on the part of the least responsible industrial elements. All enterprise could pe held to standards of fair competition properly de- termined. This represents a materially changed attitude on the part of industry toward the Government. In the recent past it has been insistent in its demands that there be less government in business. Now it is asking for a more comprehensive regulation of business. The change undoubtedly comes from the logic of the facts of present day economic life. There is nothing essentially radical in the general program thus favored by the National Chamber of Commerce. President Roosevelt has made it very clear that no dictatorship over business is con- templated, but rather a co-operation or partnership between business and the Government to provide an effect method of self-regulation for business. Trade associations, already organized, but prevented from making agreements on wages or prices or production by the anti-trust laws, are to be the means of disciplining industry. Freed from their present inhibitions, the trade associations may prove an effective device to restore business and manufacturng activities. ¥ ST. JOHN HOLDS UNIQUE CELEBRATION. Recently, on May 18 to be exact, St. John, New Brunswick, celebrated a unique event in the history of North America when it observed the 150th an- niversary of the loyalist migration, at the end of the Revolutionary War, from the United States to the more hospitable shores of New Brunswick. Driven from their homes in the revolting colonies because of their allegiance to the crown of Great Britain, these individuals in thousands were trans- ported northward to the land that remained under the British flag. In all between 30,000 and 35000 of these folk— men, women and children, left their original homes in the colonies. They settled in the Maritime Provinces, some 12000 of them in St. John, and| radually scattered through the Canada of that finding homes in Ontario. Through troubled years when the political future of the northern o . of the continent was & matter of some doubt Joyalists constituted a powerful factor in main- - |of the country tives have visited warships or Army posts, they have been entitled to a 17-gun salute. - The Army and Navy have been notified to modify their | regulations to make it a 19-gun salute which prev- iou has been rated only by members of the Cabinet. Letters, notifying the Governors, were overestimate their “influence on. national life even down to the present” time. Though they were protected by the treaty which won American independence, they were nevertheless subjected to more or less persecution in many parts Under the conditions of the times, that was inevitable. They were eventually con- gregated in New York and sailed from there under agreement with the British authorities. On May 18, 1783, the “Spring Fleet” from New York anchored in St. John harbor with families seeking new homes under the Union Jack, and during the summer of that year, the little ships ferried back and forth between St. John and New York to complete the migration movement. TWO MORE GUNS FOR GOVERNORS. Governors of the several States, and presum- ably the Territories, have been given two more guns by an Executive Order issued by President Roosevelt which puts them on a parity with members of the Presidtn’s Cabinet. In the past when State Execu- mailed out from Washington early this month. Viscount Ishii, Japan's delegate to Washington to diseuss international economic conditions with President Roosevelt and to London for the Economic Conference, expects success to attend the latter meeting. Apparently he hadn't heard about Presi- dent Roosevelt's plea to all nations to cease ag- gressive warfare and to within their own borders. keep their armed forces Our Navy Replacements. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) The inclusion in the Administration’s Federal public works program of $46,000,000 for construction on thirty war vessels seems to amount to a re- allocation of the naval budget, utilizing the $55,- 000,000 just cut from the fiscal program. This saving is at the expense of the navy's enlisted personnel and officers whose numbers are reduced in line with the retrenchment of the army. Such a step is of interest to inland readers from two points of view. Certainly it may be felt at Gary, Pittsburgh and in Ohio cities in the steel area. But in a larger way, now ‘that the disarma- ment negotiations at' Geenva have taken on new meaning, with guns booming in South America and with the Far East in uproar, and the whole world what goes on in our navy yards is interlocked in puzzling intricacies, affecting every one of us. The action becomes ‘simplier when it is looked | at purely in departmental terms. It is a view| natural to a President, who was a vigorous Assist- ant Secretary of the Navy during the World War. Roosevelts and Adamses may be depended upon to keep in touch with naval needs. They find us in| naval eclipse. The answer of Charles Francis Adams, on re- tiring as Secretary, to Representative Rainey, so long connected with naval affairs in the House, | giving the present status of, the navy in comparison to the strength of the British Empire and Japan, lights up the Roosevelt decision, This surveyed the assumed status in 1986 if nothing were done and provided the ships now authorized by the three | countries were completed. Our inaction and ob-| solescence are criticized by the Adams report. looking hopefully to the London conferences of June, || SYNOPSIS: Sue Tally, an American girl, is the only guest Jim Sundean finds interesting when he {s marooned for a winter week in o summer hotel in Southern France. He distrusts the manager, Lovschiem, and finds the hotel {t- self an eerie place filled with dis- tressing moises — most of them caused by the mistral, blowing relentlessly out of the north. Then Sundean {s wakened from a doze by Sue Tally’s pounding on his door. She has escaped an abduc- tor ; he calms her, and goes to the lobby _for the key she had forgot- ten. The key s gone : returning he stumbles over a bloody corpse. Sue has_disappeared ; Lovschiem ap- pears and 1s reluctant to call the police. Chapter 7 ! S8UNDEAN'S DANGER KNEW Lovschiem lied when he sald he did not know the dead man. “You'd better call the police then,” I said. Lovschiem, satisfled that I had ac- cepted his word, was leaning over the man again. “Ho — look here. Someone's robbed him. Pockets emptied, noth- ing anywhere.” His hands no longer shrank; they were instead ghoulish- ly eager in their search. It was as if Lovschiem expected to find some- thing that had been overlooked. If 80, he failed, for presently he looked at me again. This time his eyes were angry and little and viclous. He said: “Who are you?” Later 1 was to ponder over that crazy inquiry. Then it enraged me; I was angry, shaken, tired, cold, and I was still in the grip of a night- marish experience. “You know very well who 1 am. It you are innocent of this affair, call the police at once. If you don't, I will. Keep your hands off that man!” I had spoken too late. He had dragged out the knife and | was holding it up into the stream of light so we both could see it. It was This disclosed our destroyers outgunned, out-| speeded, little better than “man-traps” in case of war. None could cross the Pacific without refueling | —nor even the Atlantic.

Hence the Roosevelt call for | twenty destroyers, five light cruisers and four sub-| marines. The whole Roosevelt program is, then, not any-| thing but replacement. If we are to have a navy| it is necessary. Otherwise, as Admiral Hugh Rod- man, Kentucky-born, used to “Trying to operate a fleet which we do not keep up to date is about | as useless as entering a jackass in the Kentucky | Derby.” Does Advertising Pay? (Aztec, N. M., Independent Review.) The most common question put to an editor is: | “Do you believe advertising pays?” To answer in the affirmative for any editor. His bread and butter is derived | from the income received for advertising space. But | to enter into detail in an effort to convince the inquirer is an act that is noble in purpose. So many items stand directly in the path of an effort to explain the point to decision that is convineing. Under the circumstances, action, instead of words, must be the factor contributing to the positive proof of the affirmative answer. Advertising is an investment in a business. It is an art that requires considerable thought and study because of the many different forms to which it can be used. The outstanding form of adver- tising is that of using the columns of a newspaper as a medium of reaching into the homes of buyers| and prospective customers. No other form of adver- tising is as sure-shot and permanent as a well written and displayed advertisement on the page of a newspaper. Message in a newspaper is as perma- nent as the home for it lingers in the home long after other forms of conveying the message have been forgotten. Any form of advertising is better than none at all. But, a message on a hand bill is soon destroyed for hand bills are substance of little that mar the appearance of a well kept home. Conse- quently hand bills are soon destroyed. Radio car- ries the message directly into the home but only ears that are attentive receive the message. Cir- culars or form letters reach the home but only the addressee in all probability ‘will read the mes- sage. Stamped messages on gifts, etc, become more a hidden or sceret code than a valuable adver- tising medium. Advertising in a newspaper reaches every mem- ber in a home and every person who visits that home. When one member of a family reads a newspaper he carefully lays it aside for some one else to read. Every newspaper carries a message that is of importance to some one, and this often results in the filing of newspapers for future refer- ence. People do not have a set time to read their newspapers. They can read a small part during a few idle moments, return later and continue is only natural | “"J*HERE'S only one like it in the dark, and a slow drop was forming on it. But it wasn't a knife at all. It was a small dagger like a toy sword. It was a toy sword, and 1 had seen one like it only a little be- fore. Lovschiem recognized it, too. He got heavily to his feet. 1 preceded him, however, into my room, and we both stood at the fireplace star- ing at the bronze clock. The little bronze soldier's gauntleted hand was empty, and the sword was in Lovschiem’s fat hand. Or at least, I thought, a sword just like it. But Lovschiem dispelled my sprouting hope of that at once. He sald with just a gleam of ugly tri- umph: house. No, Mr. Sundean, you killed him yourself. You were very stupid about it. More stupid than I should have believed of you, for you've the face of an intelligent man. But you killed him.” There are things that leave you 80 stunned that for just a moment you feel numb—as if suspended in a void. The thing that was so unreal and made everything else unreal was his accusation. “And you want me to call the po- lice,” he ,added, with what ap- proached a smile. It was still difficult to speak. But all at once things were real enough. A sudden memory had come to me with all the reviving influence ot a stream of icy water. Sue Tally had stood there, almost where Lov- schiem was now standing, holding ‘that sword and running her pink fingers along its sharp edge and say- ing that it was like a dagger. Then I had left her alone in the The White Codkatoo by Mignon G. Eberhart darkness of the corridors. And fm-| mediately afterwards I had found a murdered man beside that very door, and he had been murdered with the dagger I had last seen in Sue Tally’s fingers. But the trouble was I didn’t know | what to do. So I stood there look!n‘i at Lovschiem and sald nothing. | A small satisfaction was that my ook irritated Lovschiem and appn-% ently made him uneasy. He said: | “You Amerjcans, you are all alike. How can anyone tell what you are thinking? Poker faces, that's what you call them. Now then, shall I call the police?” 4 There was only one thing to say. f “Call them at once.” He was visibly disconcerted. He stared at me and then took another step toward me peering into my face. “Who are you?" he sald again. Again, somehow, the question touched off my smouldering fury. I stepped quickly nearer. “QEE here, Lovschiem, 1 told you once who 1 am! And that I didn’t kill this man!” He backed-away a step or two and someone from the corridor gasped | shrilly: “What s it? For the love of God—" “Grethe — hush!” Lovschiem's voice smothered the woman's cry. I whirled. It was a woman, now, kneeling by the murdered man. A woman in a yellow shawl whose fringes dropped from her shoulders. Her red hair was drawn in a great knot at the back of her neck. Lovschiem, the dagger still held carefully between two fat fingers, left me and advanced quickly to- ward her. 1 followed him and saw her turn her horrified face up to- mard him and heard her gasp: “So, you've kill him.” By that time he had bent over her, and I could not see past his bulk. 1 could, however, hear his voice. !‘He was found dead on the land- ing, there. I do not know who he is, Iam justgoing to call the police. This man with me found him.” He turned to me: “My wife can go and telephone for the police, since you insist.” The red-haired woman, then, was Madame Lovschiem. I could see her now as she rose. She clutched the yellow shawl about her, The tight folds hugged her full breast and narrow waist and curving hips; even at the moment I was conscious, asa man is, of a kind of attraction about her. In the very act of rising she had caught sight of the dagger with its ominous wet stain, Her shining eyes fastened on it, and widened, and held their gaze so fixedly that both Lov- schiem and I looked at it, too. But she did not scream. She did not make any motion of fright. She sald finally: “Lovschiem, you're a fool.” room, I had gone through the long corridors to the lobby, and from it | | had seen her figure cross the light ‘, from my door and vanish into the | Established 1898 reading, each time the newspaper agvertisement appears once more before their eyes.
