[i— BORAH SEES ACUTE FARM SITUATION Senator Says No Candidate for President Without Relief Proposal Will Be Nominated. By the Associated Press. Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho, declared yesterday upon his return to ‘Washington that, despite good crops and fair prices, the farm situation was still acute in the West and would be a dominating issue in the next presi- dential campaign. “No candidate will be nominated who does not come through with a practical farm relief proposition,” he added. “While the McNary bill will by no means receive universal support, wheat growers are for it and I under- stand it will be re-introduced at the mext session.” “The relief of our farmers will largely be in reducing the cost of getting farm products to the markets. The farmers now get only about 30 cents for every dollar’s worth of prod- uce they raise.” Tobacco with an exceptionally high nicotine content is being grown at the New York agricultural experi- ment station to test its practical use as insecticide.

(Continued from Yesterday's Star.) CHAPTER XVIIL Back to Christopher. HE impact with the water dazed Christopher, and when he arose again to the surface of the Caribbean Sea and looked for the lifeboat containing Anne, he had lost his sense of direc- tion. + A boat lay mnot far off, how- ever, and he struck out for it, aware of the fact that a shark might be lurking near. A few brisk strokes brought him alongside of a lifeboat and a strong arm hoisted him on board. His hand reached for the slipper. It was safe and unbroken. “Anne! Anne!” Christopher called, his_ eyes searching the passengers. “Where's Miss Morris, officer? Didn't she wave to me from this boat?” The official in charge was a stranger to Chris, one he had not seen before, and he shook his head, replying courteously: “If the lady is not in this boat, sir, she is safely in another one. It was a crazy thing to dive over like that. You ran the risk of being swallowed up, like Jonah.” Chris had his foot on the rail pre pared to dive again when the man’s hand grasped him. “You can't go overboard again!” he ordered peremptomily. ‘““We'll be ashore before long, and you can find the lady very easily. Better take an oar and warm up or youwll catch cold.” Chris studied the horizon and found that the fleet of boats was now a long way off. The official was right. It would be madness to attempt to swim to Anne, and he took the oar, bend- ing to it with his full strength. There was no one in the boat that he knew, he reflected presently, and now that he had time to think he began to wonder about Winston and his code message, so unfortunately interrupted by the captain’s ardor. The man had. been trying to tell something of importance, Christopher was certain of that. He had also re- leased Christopher from captivity. What were the words he had shouted as he had dashed off? “Watch _Anne and keep your eves on the Russian!” Something like that. What Russian? To whom did Winston allude? As he plied his oar [Chris put all his wits to work, concluding at length that Winston must have re- ferred to Sonia, for Chris remembered that Fritz had expressed a doubt as to her nationality; sure that she was not a German. Yes, that was it. Sonia was a Russian, and Winston, like himself, had reason to think that she was involved in the disappear- ance of Lady de Vere. The idea was a thrilling one in- deed, but less so than the thought of Winston. The man had undoubtedly been playing a part all through, de- ceiving them all. He was no half- mad youth suffering from a nervous breakdown, but who was he? What lay behind his unusual actions, his courtship of Anne, his friendliness to Christopher, his rival? “Meet me at the Strangers’ Club, Colon, as soon as you get there.” ““Officer,” Chris broke the silence, “what kind of a shore is this? How :re Wwe going to make Colon? Is it ar “The captain saild it was about eight miles,” the officer replied, “and in this sea we can’t attempt to row il jt as THE THRILL THAT COMES ONCE IN ALIFETIME. —By WEBSTER. it. We shall have to land on the shore and wait until the wind calms down. I think that this boat is large enough for us to venture to row to Chagres, a tiny hamlet on the far side of the Chagres River.” “Will the other boats land there?” Chris asked eagerly. “The larger ones will attempt fit, at least, and from there we can send messengers up to river to Gatun Locks and have relief sent to us, We shall get everybody safely into Colon by night, 1 hope. Meantime there is nothing to worry about. This boat could live through a worse sea than (Ms', though it appears to be alarm- ing!” Where would Anne’s boat land was Chris’ next anxiety. If they were separated by miles of coast line it would be difficult to reach her. “Can we walk along the shore?” he inquired. “The captain thought not. The jungle is impenetrable all along here and (he coast line rough and dan- gerous."” Chris stopped talking and put all his strength into his oar. The sooner they reached the shore the sooner_he could go to Anne's assistance. His thoughts went back to Sonia, who was not in the boat. Probably the crew would not be landed at present. Too bad to have to ignore that part of Winston's instructions, no matter what it signified. Anne came first with Christopher Dahlgren. Sonia and all the Russians in existence could wait. It was a long, hard pull to land and Chris was thoroughly tired out when the Chagres River was reached and the hamlet came into sight, but to his dismmay only one other boat had made that shelter, and there was no sign of Anne or Straine, the seaman in charge insisting that no such passengers had been with them. “Mr. Winston and his mother were with us,” the man explained. “They had to get to Gatun on urgent busi- ness and hired a native with a canoe to paddle therf in.” “Mr. Winston and his mother Chris echoed in relief, for at least he could find them. “They canoed up the Chagres River?” “Yes; ought to make the locks in a couple of hours. They'll send re- lief after us, too. Meantime these natives will give us fruit. Wouldn't advise you people to eat anything, though, and don’t drink the water. There is enough in the boats to tide us over for a few hours.” Chris did not waste any time in ex- ploring the little hamlet of Chagres. Interesting as such a place would have been at any other time, he had more important matters on his mind. One glance at the shore line convinced him that he could not hope to make his way to Anne over land. Wouldn't it be best for him to follow Winston's example and reach Gatun Locks, czbling immediately to reassure Prof. Morris, and going then to Colon to await Anne’s arrival? The more he considered this plan tr. more practical it seemed. He could not hope to help Anpe in any other way, and by the time she landed he might have secured a re- t..n cable from her father and be able to relieve her mind on that score. It was not difficult to secure the services of a native and a canoe, and the officer in charge of his lifeboat was soon persuaded to let him go. “I can't see any reason why you should not leave the party in this way, Mr. Dahlgren,” the man said, “Of ‘course, I'm supposed to keep you all together, but under the circum- stances I think I'm justified in com- plying with your request. I'm sure you'll find this native honest and trustworthy; they’re eager to pick up what money they can ‘rom tourists.” Chris thanked him and embarked in the rude canoe, and was soon shoot- ing u) the Chagres River. “Soine adventure this,” he grinned at the thought, his eyes taking in the brown-skinned, half-naked young fel- lo 7 who plied the paddle with such dexterity. “My, but this is a beauti- ful spot; how Anne would love it!" And as his eyes took in the wild tropic vegetation, colored by birds and flow- ers of every hue, he longed for Anne more intensely than at any time. “What a s-~* for a honeymoon,” he mused, *“a cabin and a canoe safely tucked away in the jungle, far from the haunts of human feet! Oh, boy!” he drew a long breath at the very thuught, closing his eyes for a clear picture of his beloved, placed in such a setting! The sun grew hotter, until Chris- topher felt as if he should be roasted alive, and now and again the guide paused beneath overhanging trees and bathed his head, Christopher fol- lowing gratefully. At any other time, he reflected, such an expedition would have been a hardship. Now nothing mattered, he was going to help Anne! Even the grandeur and wonder of the Gatun Locks, when they finally came into sight, did not affect Chris- topher very much. He had the feel- s that he could take in their mas- sive wonder later on, wken Anne had been found and everrthing straight- ened out. Paying off his guide, Chris hurried to the proper authorities, making him- self known and inquirin;; for Winston and his mother. “Yes,” he was reassured by the su- perintendent. of the locks, “Mr. Winston got here nearly an hour ago and went on his way. You know Cristobal and Colon are practically one city. You can go through on the next boat, and you won't have long to wait.” “Of course, you've notified Cris- tobal of the accident to the ship and the refugees waiting up near Chagres?"” “‘Yes, we telephoned at once, and when the sea quiets a little a launch will go around and pick them all up. The whole shipload will be rescued by night, don’t worry. You look pretty well used up; how about some- thing to eat?” Chris was thankful to accept this hospitable offer and was very much restored, mentally and physically, by a good meal and time to rest in the shade before a steamer entered the locks, and through the courtesy of the superintendent he was accepted as a passenger. Great interest was displayed aboard this steamer, a sister ship of the Hope, returning through the canal on her way to New York, and the cap- tain heard his story with eagerness, saying that thev would stop long enough at Cristobal to find out what had been done in the way of rescue. ““We could stop for them ourselves, but in all probability the Hope can be made seaworthy again in a few hours and the passengers be taken aboard to complete their trip to San Francisco!” “‘She seemed to be taking in water,” Chris suggested. “That is not strange, considering that she was listed from being aground and water could penetrate in several ways. It won't take long to haul her off and pump her out, and the shaft can probably be repaired at Cristobal. At any rate, every effort will be made to get her afloat, and Cristobal is a mighty nice place for a short stay, Mr. Dahlgren. I'm quite su.> you'll find your friends before many hours have passed and have a most enjoyable visit to the Zone. I'm wondering about one thing, however; what happened to the wireless? Why didn’t the captain send out an SOS?” Christopher hesitated. “It was out of order all the day of the storm,” he said finally. “Out_of ords You mean beyond hope of repair “Yes. Several unfortunate things occurred during the last 24 hours at sea, captain, but ¥ feel that it is not ATIONAL Tg'“fl"' T8¢, 50e NATIONAL THEATER PLAYERS Direction Clifford Brooke, Offe Bex. ‘Mon.—Farewell Week 7th HEAVEN lm m i BILL Labor Day Outings CHESAPEAKE BEACH Bathing, Boating, Fiahing, Crabbing menta '“'5 Tables Beach: Round Tl Adts Boc. ‘Chitiren,. 250 Sundays and, Hofidays"Adults.

Chris forgot it as he hurried uhore and sought Government headquarters. He must report immediately, find out if reliet had already been sent to the refugees, look up young Wi: ston at the Strangers’ Club. First, however, he must send a cable to Anne's father and to his naper, for Chris had not forgotten his profession_ altogether! What a scoop for Mr. Kean! As he hurried along the fascination of the strange city came over him. What an interesting +* :e, what a wonderful time he and Anne would have here. Perhaps he could talk her into marrying him.
