CHICAGO, November 25.—An- ouncement of & forthcoming na- lonal campaign to reduce the num- of automobile accident deaths at st 35 per cent by 1941 stimulated fety efforts in communities of the nited States today. i The drive will open January 1 and 1l centinue for five years, the Na- nal Safety Council stated. Reali- tion of the goal would preserve at 38,000 lives, it was estimated. i The council said it had a large or- @anization ready to join with public officials, safety units, educators and Federal departments. ‘The council’s announcement came but a few days after President Roose- yelt called a conference at Washing- ton within the next two weeks to @chieve greater safety on land and #ea and in the air. . ‘The council said: = “It is planned to co-ordinate much of the existing safety effort, to cen- tralize and standardize the work through application of methods proved By successful experience. i “New ways of appealing to the in- dividual motorist to arouse a sense of responsibility will be sought, “A definite State-wide school pro- gram will be recommended for each State, together with the organiza- tion of State safety councils and lo- ealized safety organizations in towns and cities. “The adoption of uniform laws, in- eluding standard drivers’ license leg- {slation, will be urged, together with adequate administration of traffic Jaws, * ¢ o CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

The regular patrons of the Cafe du Dome were ar- riving slowly; soon the place would be filled. “Shall we go, Tubby, old boy?” He reclined still further in his chair and rattled the ice in his glass re- provingly. “What you need is another drink, Diana,” he advised. “You're developing a complex about being stationary, as though you expected to see a ghost somewhere if you didn't keep moving.” For answer Diana merely sipped her drink. Tubby was nearer to the truth than he knew. For almost six months now she had been aware that Hugh Crandon hadn’t been fooling when he refused to accept her refusal to marry him seriously. His persist- ence had proved no less remarkable than his ingenuity. Traveling to forget him, Shepheard’s in Cairo had failed to hide her. He had tracked her half-way up the Jungfrau. In Seville she had seen him at the bull fights; in Venice she had come upon him, apparently unaware of her, feeding the pigeons on the palazzo of St. Mark’s. Two weeks in Paris, and he had evidently lost track of her. She felt oddly intrigued at his absence; it had almost become & habit to be eluding him. L kR x ,SHE looked up as Tubby suddenly rose from his chair. “Friend of mine,” he explained. “Miss Loring, may I present Mr. Crandon?” Diana’s heart did a flipflop before she turned and coldly acknowledged the intro- duction. Trust Tubby to know every one! There was nothing to be done now but play the little farce out. “Miss Loring?” Crandon grinned imperturbably, “I seem to have heard the name somewhere before.” He seated himself and ordered a drink. “Tell me, do you come here often?” he opened. “I have, but I won't,” she countered pointedly. “I expect to be leaving Paris very shortly.” “I'm really sorry, then, that I didn’t come over from London until yester- day, Miss Loring. I could have shown you the town.” * % k% O THAT explained his strange dis« appearance! Dijans remembered his once having told her of his family in Sussex. He seemed changed, though slightly, from the Hugh of six months ago. More directness, more seriousness in his manner. But his deliberate sang-froid at finally meet- ing her was disconcerting. “Do you suppose Tubby would mind Af-we danced, Miss Loring?" He was daring her, then. “Go right ahead, Diana,” Tubby shrugged, “I'm going to have another drink.” Crandon guided her expertly about the rapidly filling floor. “I've mever met such & charming dance partner,” he complimented as the drummer concluded the dance with & crash of cymbals, “I should like to dance again, if you care t0.” Diana SHORT LOANS INCREASE Production Credit Associations Report 37 Per Cent Gain.

C. He Seemed Changed, DIANA Coler. looked sharply at him ,and decided that he wasn't be- ing flippant. “Why not?” she challenged. “The night is young, aud Tubby is such an abominable danc- ! er” Her concese sion eased the ten sion of her resist- ance. After all, it was & bit difficult to be rude to a per« fectly decorous gen= “tleman whose only fault lay in the continued single- mindedness of his devotion to one! ‘Tubby proved himself to be an excellent guide to . the sights of the city., As the eve- ning progressed they visited practi- cally every haunt known to their chubby friend. By 1 o'clock in the morning, Diana was ready to admit that perhaps she had been hasty in her decision some months back, as she studied Crandon in this new light of playboy. It would seem that he had developed a sense of balance; instead of being wild, he enjoyed their entertainment maturely. * ok ok x BY 2 o'clock, looking back through the happy haze of several side- cars and some really excellent Chateau Yquem, she was sctually regretful that she had ever made him miserable. Not once during the evening had Crandon varied from his role of studied gallantry. Impersonally, he had chatted, with an undeniable air of cosmopolitanism, of interesting places on the continent. Never once did he call Diana anything but Miss Loring. The situation gradually be- gan to pique her. “I can see through his game,” she said to herself. “He's going to mal me pay for leading him such & chase.” She revolved the thought in her mind as they went from theater to cafe and then to a succession of dinner clubs. “Maybe I deserve it,” she decided at length. “At least, I don't mind it so very much!” Three o'clock found them back of Montmartre, sitting in an alcove at Zelli's. “The old crowd isn't here any more,” apologized Tubby as they stumbled out of the ancient taxi, “but the onion soup is still good.” Tubby wandered away to talk to the bartender. * k% % TANA looked up from the menu. Crandon was watching her quizzi- cally in the half light of the booth. “You're sweet,” he commented. Diana felt the old, familiar happiness at his words. The uncertainty, the angef of the past months fled like shadows be- fore the dawn of a new conception. “Let's drop pretenses, shall we?"” Diana suggested. “You win, and I shall admit that I was wrong. I didn’t realize until tonight that I didn't know the real you.” Crandon considered this with a puz- zled frown. “But, Miss Loring—" he began, “Wait,” pleaded Diana. And then, humbling her pride, she surrendered, “I'm terribly sorry to have caused you 80 much trouble. But, I'll marry you if you still want me, Hugh.” He rose. “You are laboring under an unfortunate misapprehension, Miss Loring. You must confuse we with my twin brother Hugh—for my name happens to be Allan!” (Copyrisht. 1935.)

Deal legislation piling up in the Federal courts, a check-up today showed judges appointed by Re- publican Presidents wil have the dom- Inant voice in passing on its consti- tutionality, Although the Democrats have con- trolled the executive and legislative branches of the Government for al- most three years, the survey disclosed that Republican appointees are in a majority on the Federal bench by a wide margin, Even though political tags are dis- carded by judges when they assume the bench, discussion of their back- grounds has been stirred by the im- portance of pending New Deal tests and by charges and denials that the administration was overriding the Constitution. The check-up showed only two of the nine Supreme Court justices were appointed by Democratic Presidents, while Republican appointees have a wide numerical edge all the way down through the circuit and district judges. Hold Office for Life. Federal judges hold office for life. Twelve years of Republican rule in the White House, from 1921 to 1933, left on the bench few men who were appointed by Democratic Presidents. President Roosevelt has appointed only 8 of the 41 active circuit judges. Seven others are still serving under appointments from President Wilson, so the total appointed by Democrats = Lansbu; DIAMOND JUBILEE YEAR D. C, is 15 against 26 named by Repub- licans. Among the Federal district judges, there are 107 appointed by Republican Presidents, 12 named by President Wilson and 23 by President Roosevelt. In the District of Columbia courts, where many constitutional tests arise, the Republicans also have a wide edge. Four of the five members of the District Court of Appeals were named by Republicans. Of the nine members of the District Supreme Court, one was appointed by President Wilson, one by President Roosevelt and the other seven by Republican Presidents. Supreme Court Justices. President Roosevelt has not named s single Supreme Court justice, though two are hold-overs from the ‘Wilson administration. Out of the total of 196 Federal .

Chief exceptions are on the Supreme Court and lower courts in the South.
