NEW YORK, March 14.—The busi- ness of serious music, sensitive index to the public purse, shows a vast in- crease for the current season over 1933-34. Some of the most prominent musical managements in the Nation reported yesterday business gains over last year ranging from 33 to 80 per cent. These firms expect a continued and sizable increase for 1935-36. George Engles, managing director of the N. B. C. Artists’ Service, said the gross receipts of his concern for the current season show an increase of 80 per cent over the total for 1933-34. Engles said this was for the | “concert artists’ list” only. “In the bookings which are under way for next season,” Engles said, “we of the National Student League and told the court she accompanied another member of the league, Miss | Joan Walter of Lockport, to the street | meeting. | “I am interested in Communism as & much-discussed topic at the uni-| versity,” Miss Bash said in answer to | a question by the prosecutor. “I am| interested in arguments both for and | egainst it.” A defense objection halted her be- fore she could reply to the question of whether her father was aware of her interest in Communism. Kling was arrested with Herbert Newton, Communist candidate for city | clerk, and colored husband of Jane Emery Newton, daughter of a former national commander of the Ameri- can Legion. | Gen.

The strike follows a long-standing labor dispute at the Colt plant and a recent statement by the National Labor Relations Board which “found that the Colt Co. for more than a year had refused to accept the board's procedure of collective bargaining, in | violation of section 7-A. dnlbaite .

He had staked his eards on his immense surety, and his hreats and his tortures had drawn only one speech from the outlaw. He had called Estrada a dog and a son of a dog. And now he was to die, tri-| umphant. | It was against this triumph in death | that the soul of the general revolted. And then he told himself, in an in- terval of impassioned cursing, that he had been a fool to think that he could | wear down such a spirit as that of Rubriz in a single session. No, little by little the steel of this spirit must be ground away until it was thin and brittle enough to snap under a finger’s weight. And when the general considered how the grind- ing should be performed, he could think of only one safe and perfect place, because there was only one ultimate, man-made hell on earth. That was the Valley of the Dead, from which fools whispered that Miguel Santos had escaped. They were fools, because no man ever escaped from the valley. And that was the perfection of its hell—its hopelessness. Out of its bounds no one was ever pardoned, because the tales which could have been told by the saved would have blackened the face of the entire world. And when the general arrived at this conclusion, he looked suddenly up with an exaltation of his spirit. There is no absolute hate without fear intermingled, and during the long process of the torture he had begun to hate his victim because he could not help being struck through with a cold apprehension now and again—suppose that the man should ROMANCE 8Y EVAN EVA wiry little bushes. And since he did most of his sleeping during the day, he spent the night gazing at the stars and letting whatever thoughts might come roll painlessly into his mind— and out again.

The question would lift him from sleep to wakefulness in the middle of the night, and it rode behind him all day long. That sense of duty unperformed was not a familiar thing to Montana. He had lived as free as the wind; but savage Mateo Rubriz had laid a grip on his mind and his heart. He had to return the treasure that was in his possession; but above all, he had to find out what had become of his com- panion in the robbery. He took two days coming down | from his high place. And once a day, at high noon, he took the golden ornament with the emeralds in the palm of his hand. He turned it so that the jewels flickered and glared at hila like a five-eyed cat, and then he put the thing away again in its chamois wrapping. He wondered how long it would take for the jewels to enter his blood and become a’ necessity to him? As to his strength to resist, he knew that there was a border and a boundary beyond which he could not pass. That was why he was glad to see Duraya, white as snow, with the sunset gold of its river looped around. He left the mare in a hollow at the verge of the town and made her lie down. There she would remain, ac- cording to his teaching, like a young faun left by its mother, until he came again, And he went on into the town in the early night, forgetting all dan- gers, gladdening himself with the sounds of human beings again and the scent of the pungent Mexican cookery. It was a night of festival. The en- tire population had gathered in the street that ran past the fort, past the church, past the bishop’s palace.

At last he came to the bishop’s palace and from the doorway looked back on the scene, the lanterns, the laughter, the faces whose joy could not be masked. He forgot his danger still farther.
