Convenient Credit ROXAS FORECASTS BROWN MAN'S RULE Speaker of Philippine House Declares Islands Are “Writhing in Hell.” By the Assoclated Press. MANILA, January 24.—The Philip- pine Herald, Nationalistic newspaper, today quoted Manuel Roxas, Speaker of the House, as saying in a speech yes- terday the Philippines were “writhing in hell,” and as predicting some day the white man would fall and the brown race would rule the world. The newspaper said Roxas threw his audience at Santa Cruz, Lacuna Prov- ince, into commotion when he bitterly declared: “The Philippines are now writhing in the throes of hell, a hell of slavery and forelgn domination. Our coun- try, the greatest mother of us all, be- cause she made us what we are and gave us what we hhve, is weeping, pleading, crying to us, her children, to come to her aid and save her from eternal damnation.” Predicting world supremacy of the brown race, Roxas said: “All things have their rise and fall * * *. The black man had Black generals from FEgypt. Carthage and Babyl-n once swept the plains of Europe and conauered the white peo- ples inhabiting the continent * * * and today he siill rules supreme, he looks down on all other races as in- ferior. But the day will come when the whites will also bite the dust and taste the bitter fruit of tyranny, then will come the brown man’s turn. He will hold the world in his hands and rule subreme over all other races.” PUBLISHER JAILED PUEBLO, Colo., January 24 (®).— Frank S.

NEW YORK, January 2¢ (NAN.A), —Eighteen days of stormy weather had broken the back of the Clintonia, owned and officered by Gustav Borgenmann and wife. She lay in the trough of & heavy sea off the Horn, wallowing and bucking like a horse going up a steep | hill in & snowstorm. “We didn't have a chance” sald | Buter, who up to 13st month was bos'un | on the freighter. “The skipper was help- less with a broken leg and water was pouring into the hcld from a smashed hatch. Why, there were split seams below a man could stick his face through almost.” The last straw was when a comber rampaged into the galley like a bull in a china shop and destroyed in its mad swirl most of the food on board. The men couldn't stand it any more. They had been working the pumps until their backs ached, and now there was hardly any food left. The Clintonla had no radio. Its only refinement was a row of potted plants Mrs. Gus (that's what the men called the skipper’s wife) had set along a shelf in her cabin, The men had burned their clothes as distress signals, but no help | had come. There was nothing for it but to ab-ndon ship. Told He Could Go. J The mate s'dled shamcfacedly toward | the bridge where Mrs. Gus was balanc- ing to the roll of her ship. He said, “I guess we'll have to break out the life- boats.” “You can go,” she said calmly, “we don't want anything yellow around here.” A small, thin, gray-haired woman, she is as cold in the face of danger as death itself. She and her husband scraped and saved since the day of their marriage to buy the Clintonia. The an- clent tramp was for them the monu- ment of thelr lives. She roared an order for all hands on | deck.” ‘The men gathered in a sheepish | huddle. They knew what was coming for they had talked it all over with the | mate. | Mrs. Gus took a cigar from her jacket and stuck it in her teeth. Then in a voice that stung and bit as mercilessly as the raging wind, she said: “The rats sre beginning to desert the ship. Anybody who wants to go is at NACHMAN SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTO!

I'm staying. I think any sai- lor with the guts of a sick butterfly wouldn't want to own up to being licked by the first puff of wind that came along.” It was, said Butler, the best thing she could have said. A straight hit from the shoulder of a square-shooting woman who doesn't know what frills or fancies are. And the men stuck, every one of them, including the mate. Some of them had families to consider, but to leave Mrs. Gus in a hole from which death could be the only escape was more than they couid do. The Clintonia_arrived finally in the shelter of Table Bay. South Africa. One of the men had collapsed from exhaus- tion. Everybody was in the last stages of weariness and starvation. “I had blisters on my hands as big as balloons,” sald Butler, “and my ribs knocked together at every step I took. But we didn't again talk about leaving the ship. None of us, not even the poor fellow who collapsed. Because that's what a sailor’s for, to show & puff of wind what's what.” Snow Terrifies Sailor. “Civilization has done for a lot of things,” said young Neville with all the accumulated wisdom of 26 years, “but it has left enough queer crinks in people to meke the world interesting.” A few nights ago the Ramrod, the freighter on which Neville is second, ran into a mild snowstorm. Large wet flakes dusted down through the cold air and Neville, standing watch, decided on a turn around the deck to keep the blood from freezing solid in his veins. He made his way through the sound- less night, broken only by the soft grumble of the engines and the splash of water against the bows, when sud- denly near the fo'c'sle head he heard a low, broken moan. “A sound fit to lay your heart bare,” Neville de- scribed it. ‘The young officer stopped dead, but only for a minute. Dashing blindly through the thick flakes, he rounded a deck house and suddenly came upon a Tibetan member of the crew squatting naked on his haunches and sobbing and moaning. “Do you remember Queequeeg in ‘Moby Dick'?” asked Neville. “Well, this chap is his living counterpart.

The boy was startled at this appa- rition from another century, another world. “Here,” he said, “what's going on? m,you crazy, sitting out here like Dutch made no answer. He had an u‘ll wooden idol clutched in his hands, and Neville realized that he was per- forming some religious ceremony. Later Neville prodded an explana- tion from the man. It seems he never seen snow before and, when sud- denly confronted with large, mysterious whitenesses dropping from the sky in which his god lived, he was at first fearful of the end of the world. But then he reasoned that this whiteness was part of the furniture of heaven, which, to him, is all white and gold, and that the furniture had been drop- ped for an inscrutable reason, mayhap for the absolution of his sins. So he stripped off all his clothes and prayed in the wash of snow. 1931—PART TWO. “ff it snows while Dutch is walking down Fifth avenue.” Another weird person on the Ramrod was Hymie, the Swede; a middle-aged, supremely good-natured man, who has let the sea wash him into every port| in_the world. | Hymie has only four teeth left in hll“ head.

Coming from school with a terrific toothache, he stopped at the village blacksmith's to watch the sparks fly from the anvil. The smithy noticed Hymie's distress and offered to cure the pain.
