JOURNALCRTCSH AROUGES FASEST Comment by Vatican Official Newspaper of Government Policy Is Resented. Correspondence of the Associated Press. ROME, September 10. try of the Osservatore Romano, official news- paper of the Vatican, into critical po- lemic With various Fascist - papers on the use by Fascls sonal violence as a political weapon has brought up the interesting ques- tion: “Ha: n government the right to control or to suppress the newspaper of the Holy See for po- ) litical reasons? This unusual development, creating a new aspect of relations between the government and Vatican and tending to imperil the already considerable work of Premier Mussolini in remov- ing causes of friction with the Holy See, has been brought up by the em- barkment of the Osservatore Romano upon a campaign of frank criticism of the use of violence as a political weap- on at any time or for any purpose. Facisti Tactics Criticized. Abandoning its customary die aloofness, the papal newspaper has dafly printed articles in which Fa cist tactics have been criticized freely and Fascist apologists have been an- swered in some detail. The news: paper has gone so far as to engage in spirited polemic with Roberto Fari- nacel, secretary general of the Fascist party, and has not hesitated to tell him boldly. in answer to his repeated demands that it cease interference with purely. political affairs, that it in- tends to stop its comments when it no \longer has anything to say and only then. Yet, while the official press censor has suppressed neutral and opposition newspapers for the slightest breath of criticism of governmental tactis, the Vatican newspaper has never been interfered with. Consequently the question of possible interference has heen brought up by Fascists because of thelr irritation over criticism, and by opposing leaders be- cause of their desire to prove the un fairness of press censorship in gen- eral. Held Subject to Control. One faction maintains that the Osservatore Romano is subject to con- trol. These persons assert that since the papal newspaper is avowedly a fiollucmrellglous publication, it can e regarded as an ordinary newspaper and hence is subject to all regulations and restrictions governing other daily publications. They declare the gov- ernment’s timidity in suppressing this newspaper is unwarranted and that a start should be made quickly. Another faction, however, is equally certain that the Osservatore Romano \Is absolutely immune from govern- mental control, arguing that it par- takes of the immunity from Italian le- gal process given to all instrumentali- ties of the Holy See. Thus, they de- clare, the Vatican newspaper is, le- gally and morally, as safe from inter- ference as though it were printed abroad because of the extraterritorial- ity which the Holy See enjoys. First Trappers of West. The first white men to live with any permanency on what is now the soil \of Ohlo were the traders and trapper: says the Dayton News. The trapper of Ohio avolded the Indian when it seemed wise to do so and made friend with him when he felt that it was safe. The same conditions of wild life led him to adopt much the same dress as the Indians. A coonskin cap took the place of the Indlan’s deerskin shirt. Mocca- sins covered his feet and buckskin breeches protected his nether limbs. It ie singular that the trapper usually lived a solitary life. Protection, it would seem, would have suggested 1iv- ing in groups, but the Ohio trapper was usually the only occupant of the little cabin In the woods that sheltered him from raln and cold. This was \ generally a little lean to, built against a hillside. A bearskin couch, pelts for clothing and a pot for cooking can- stituted his property. His rifie and traps supplied him abundantly with meat, and corn he could secure from the Indians in trade. These members of the outskirts of civilizatlon never turned back to civilization, but as the frontier push ,ed out toward them they retreated farther West and were the link be- tween the savage and the white man, never really becoming a part of Ohio. Heir Must Live in U. §. Andrew J. Onderdonk, a rich Ameri- can youth who has been living 1n Vienna, must come back to the United Btates if he wants his share in his father’s $600,000 estate. His father stipulated in the will that the s must make his home in this countr: if he is to receive his bequest, and added a statement denouncing “the spending in Europe of money made in the United States.” MOVING, PACKING & STORAGE.

You do look rather Italian, I see, now you speak of it! But vou are simply the image of Captain Haste's adopted sister. Have yet?” 3 Dagon answered. By this time he was seated on a chair opposite Mrs. Payntor's sofa, and he realized with a certain brisk enlight- enment how much she had changed since the time when his services had helped to restore her lost pearls. She had been a good-looking, middle- aged woman then. Dagon had taken her for Five years had she was ten years it wasn't her fault if she was not! 1In those days she had been innocent, of make-up, and her neat hair had been frankly fad- ing. Now she had the pink and white complexion of a girl; her eye- brows and lashes were as dark as she had quantities of “mar- alled” golden hair, and her dress was suited to the part of a “siren” on_the stage. She was In love with a man ounger than herself, of course. That was one of the things Dagon had come to find out, and he had found it out almost at first glance. He thought that he had already “spot- ted” the man, too, but he would soon be sure. And he hoped to turn sev- eral other conjectures into certain- ties as well. “So 1 am said. “Oh, astonishingly brother gnd sister.” “Maybe we are laugh as this jest.) a foundling. So was I—a self-made foundling!

Rt ‘On account of her brother?" ‘Well I suppose she wanted to give that impression. She must have known that she showed her feelings toward Eve now and then, so she hoped people would believe it was on account of her brother. My private opinion, however, Mr. Dagon, is that she was dead in love with Rawdon Wells. Very likely he'd have cared for her if he hadn't met e. He'd known Pandora and made a great pet of her since she was a child. Used to give her pres- ents and flowers, take her motoring, and all that, I've been told, especial- ly after he was invalided out of the war in 1915, while her brother was away. But I should say she was—Is, I mean—a proud and honorable little thing. She wouldn't have hurt Eve for the world. How quixotic that she should try to sacrifice herself to save Doh Wells from suspicio: imagine he appreciates it “I think he will, some da Dagon, who ful should do so. that's a good picture of Capt. Haste you have on the piano, and a beautiful one of his wife. May 1 ask who is this very bandsome young man, rather like Sir Rawdon Wells, but better looking ?” “(?h. tha What a wonder you don’t recognize his face, Mr. Dagon." exclaimed Mrs. Payntor, jumping up and flitting—If a plump woman can flit—to the piano. *“He's one of the most popular cinema actors in the world, Paolo Magnani, Rawdon Wells' first cousin.

There couidn't be a finer looking man,” sald Dagon, gazing at the three portraits. rs. Payntor beamed on him. ‘hat’s absolutely true!” she agreed rapturously. “And he's as charming as he iooks. You know there's a great romance about Paolo Magnani. _He might have been in Rawdon Wells' place, with those splendid estates and all that fortune, instead of depending on his own work for money.” “Indeed! I didn't know. Do tell me the story.” Dagon encouraged her. The lady was delighted with the invitation. Evidently it was de- liclous to her to talk of Paolo Ma-~ gnani. “Yes,” she explained. “The sisters were twins. It was Paolo’s mother (of course, she wasn't married, and 80 he was not born then) with whom Sir Rawdon Wells fell in love—in Naples, I think. She was a singer— wonderful _voice. o way, Paolo inherited it—but, lost it after an attack of diphtheria, otherwise he would now perhaps be the lead- Ing tenor of the world instead of a motion picture actor. But we were speaking of the mother. She and Rawdon, sr, were going to be married when the twin sister—a dancer—came home to Naples to dance at San Carlo in the famous ballet they have there. “She was even more beautiful and fascinating than the sister,and either she was very unscrupulous or else she fell madly in love with the Eng- lishman. Anyhow, he lost his head completely. The two ran away to- gether and were married, leaving the other twin plantee la, as you might say. She was so wild with rage and humiliation that she married a tenor in the same opera company who'd been hopelessly in love with her be- fore the Englishman came along. He was a very poor match—shiftless and without much talent. They led a cat and dog life. That was the his- tory of poor Paolo’s childhood. What & sweet nature he must have had not to be embittered and to be as devoted to his English cousin as he s, in- stead of brooding over what might have been.” “Yes, fine of him!" agreed Dagon. “Paolo has often told us about his wretched childhood, poor and neg- lected by his parents. He's quite frank—not a snobbish bone In his body! He {sn't sure that his father wasn’t actually mixed up with the Camorra—that terrible secret soclety in Naples which does every sort of crime and sends the ‘black hand’ to America.” “You are right,” Mrs. Payntor, it's mighty romantic,” said the detective, delighted with the way that things were going. “It would make a scenario plot for one of Mr. Magnanl's screen plays.” “Wouldn't it? And all that came after.” “What did come after?” Dagon asked innocently. T don't quite know “Well, Paolo used to sing in Itallan cafes and weird places like that to get money for his training.

October 1.—The test of a new 1,000-horsepower Diesel oil locomotive on the tracks of the Reading Railway between this city and. Mohrsville was rated a success by the railroad officlals and engineers who witnessed the event. The locomotive, constructed by the Baldwin .Locomotive Co., is capable of carryifff enough ofl to last from Philadelphia to Chicago. This particu- lar type, according to engineers, is ex- pected to save 75 per cent of the fuel cost of a modern steam locomotive. 1,000-Horsepower Qil Locomeotive Considered Success at First Test In appearance it resembles an elec- tric more than a steam locomotive. It has no smoke stack—only a small exhause pipe from which exhudes a thin, white vapor. The locomotive will be on exhibition at the convention of the American Electric Rallway Assoclation at At- lantic City next week. Afterwards it will be glven trials by the Pennsyl- vania Railroad at Philgdelphia and the Long Island Raflroad. Later it will be sent to several Western rail- roads for trial runs. wondering—in my detective metier if Mr. Magnani had been Carroll's admirers be- fore her marriage.

This reply of hers had been a blow to his theory. It was tottering. It might have to fall. That same night Dagon went back to Essex with haste, and was given quarters at the court.

His mission being frank and above board, he could go where he pleased, do what he pleased and_ask what questions he pleased without arous- ing resentment.

Until we produced AMOCO-GAS a mumber of years ago and thereby revolutionized the gaso- line industry, no one had given the motorist a special motor fuel which would eliminate motoring inconveniences, lessen operation costs, and make driving more and more a pleasure.
