INCREASE BOND OF COLORED BOY HELD FOR TRIAL NORRIS ALLEN WILL ALSO BE ARRAIGNED BEFORE JUS- TICE OF PEACE ON ANOTH- ER CHARGE ENTERED Norris Allen, colored youth, who was being held under bond of $100 for trial at the next term of criminal court had an addition- al bond of $250 imposed yester- day. Allen was arraigned on a charge of stealing one dozen pen- knives from a hardware store on Caroline street, and pleaded not guilty. The evidence was such as to warrant Peace Justice Frank 0, Roberts in stating he found prob- able cause for holding the defend- ant for trial at next term of criminal court. Another charge against the prisoner will be aired in Justice Roberts’ court this afternoon. This ease is thg theft of clocks from another store on Fleming street. Three clocks were stolen but two have been recovered. The evidence in this case is said to be overwhelming and will, in all probability, mean an addi- tional bond of several hundred dollars, it is said. Allen and one of his pardners are to be given a hearing Satur- day before U. S. Commissioner C, Rodney Gwynn on charges of stealing paint from government reservations.

DER NRA DEATH WARRANT OF INDEPENDENCE SIGNED; DANGER IN GREAT POWERS WASHINGTON, March 6. — That the small business man is the conspicuous victim of the NRA is the opinion of Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas. He says: “A month ago I called atten- grave danger in the immense powers given in the NRA codes, if that power were wrongfully or even carelessly used or given to the wrong people to handle. It was pointed out also that the dele- gation of power to code au- thorities giving them power to write codes, to interpret codes and to enforce codes in their own industries could lead to grave} abuses. I pointed out that the code authorities would be com- posed largely of ‘leaders in the industry.’ Now the leaders in al- most all industries are what we have termed big business. And their codes may be written—al- ready in fact some of them seem to have been written—in the in- terest, of big business and against the interest of little business, against the intergst of the smaller units of the industry. At that time I pointed out the danger of this course of action. And my fears are increasing along this line as the situation is developing from day to day. “From a grocer in Newton, Kansas, I received a satement showing that the chain store in his neighborhood, operating under the NRA is selling at retail many articles at the same price or even less than this independent grocer has to pay at wholesale. But he, the independent grocer, is told that under codes the amounts he requires cannot be sold at less, Whether it is in the codes I can- not say, but it looks as if some- one has fixed prices on a sliding scale, allowing huge discounts for quantity production, so that the big business concern can under- sell the little fellow and drive him out of business. Now, you who buy groceries may think this is a good thing for you, but I tell you that it is signing the death war- rant of the independent business man; and when that warrant is executed it will mean the death warrant for business and employ- ment in your community.” Frank Staton, salesman for dre |’ of the large paper manufacturing companies, who was in Key West yesterday for a visit to local business places, left yesterday in the afternoon for Miami. Norman Lowe left over the highway this morning for Miami, where he will remain for a few days on a business and pleasure trip. Mrs. Dumas, wife of J. W. Dumas, who operates the Caribee Colony at Upper Matecumbe Key, and a guest, were visitors in Key West_ yesterday and reported en- joying a delightful visit. They departed on the afternoon train. A. J. Angle, collector of cus- toms for Florida and Arthur G. Watson, assistant, from Tampa, were arrivals on the Havana Spe- cial yesterday. Henry C. Goodwin, who had been on duty in Key West with the government forces for the past seven months, left yesterday afternoon over the East Coast Railway enroute to Fort McClel- lan, Ala., having recently receiv- ed orders transferring him to that point.

Judith L ane JEANNE BOWMAN SYNOPSIS: Judith Lane’s, vere, h 8a planned to begin construction on an abandoned dam project in west- ern Texas. through the failure of which many small farmers had deen ruined. Chapter Two NORMAN DALE UDITH’S stenographic training, her practical and technical knowledge of engineering and the trust Tom Bevins was able to place in the daughter of a life-long friend, made her invaluable to him. At first the work seemed to her like a compromise between engi- neering and business domesticity and then gradually she became more the stenographer and less the engineer. And as she caught up the loose ends of daily work and wove them into the pattern of the con- struction company’s business, her respect for the “office wives” of the world deepened until it verged on pride in a profession. The moon-faced clock brought Judith to the realization she was due to. meet Clia in five minutes. how, due to traffic lights, one-way thoroughfares, or perchance the in- clination of the man at the wheel, Judith found them speeding across the arch of the bayou bridge with the queer town of little homes lying beyond in the dusk, On the crest of the arch, traffic caught and held them a fleeting mo- ment. Judith looked down on the roofs of the little town—“always re- minds me of a library,” she confided, “the roofs are like colored bindings of books turned upside down ... think I'd like to live in one.” “No,” countered her companion, meshing gears, “You should live in a house with slim white pillars and @ green roof, green shutters and window boxes with pink gerani- ums.” And then in the sheitered in- timacy of a storm-assailed conpe they talked of homes and houses. “I've never lived in a house,” Ju- dith confided, “it’s always been con struction camp shacks, tents, hotels, apartments and once, while Dad | was building a bridge, | lived in a monastery, deserted of course.” “It would have been deserted once the occupants ha. seen you,” came the chivalrous response and Judith tilting her head forward to laugh, caught a glimpse of the clock on the dash board—“please 1 must go back, I'm meeting Clia Sanford. and Norman called after he She scurried to the locker, pulled the perky delft blue hat to a »mart angle, donned the jacket of her new suit, whisked a powder-puff across her nose, a lip stick across her lips and grabbing letters to be dropped into the mail chute darted out of the office to the elevator. The letters slithered down the glass chute like one-winged pigeons, Judith heard the elevator doors clang. open. She stepped briskly into the car, then—“Oh,” she said breathlessly looking up into laugh- ing dark eyes which seemed amused at her start of surprise. “Working late, aren't you, Miss Lane?” asked Norman Dale, junior partner of the firm to which she had just mailed a letter. “No,” she countered, “just using the office as a waiting room, | had a late appointment.” And under her breath words were singing ... “the perky blue hat... the trim new suit... let the rain ruin them, they've served their purpose. Nor- man Male has seen mc as-something @tber than a cog in the office ma- gbinery.” “My car’s just outsife and it's ining pitch-forks. May I take you wherever you're going?” bra ‘HE elevator had made swift descent to the lobby before Ju- dith had recovered her breath suffi- ciently to respond to Norman's in- while she’s always at least fifteen minutes late, it’s now twenty min- utes after the time I was due to meet her.” RAFFIC was disappointingly light as they returned swiftly to the city, and Norman Dale, as- sisting Judith to alight, asked if they couldn't resume the discussion soon, “1 really don’t know,” Judith an- swered, “We're leaving for the Rio Diablo basin Jun first and Big Tom is quite liable to keep me working evenings to catch up with his other affairs before we go. Suppose you telephone me?” “I will, or else I'll see you at board meeting, or drop down for a chat while Tom’s off on one of his wife's pink teas.” Judith hurried into the hotel lobby, discovered Clia hurrying in behind her, and turned to accspt the red haired girl's apologies. “As if you weren't late, too,” pro- tested Clia preceding her into the main dining room, “and didn't I see you crawling out,of Norman Dale's car?” “ : “Umhum,” admitted Judith as they were seated at a window table, “any objections?” “Plenty,” retorted Clia with the frankness of an old school friend, “don't want you suffering from an- gina pectoris or some other heart vitation. For two years she had been watching him across the width of the board room table; a barrier as definite as the social wall which seemed to rear itself between aspir- ing young stenographers and prom- ising young lawyers. Dale, Lampere and Morrison had been retained by the Bevins Con- struction company to handle {ts le gal affairs since the inception of the company, and Nornian Dale, aseum- ing his father’s place with the law firm, at the elder Dale’s death, had gradually assumed his duties. Now that the toard table and its symbolical barrier had been re moved, Judith found herself re sponding to Norman's !fnvitation with a still breathless—"I'd so ap preciate it.” ‘The car was at the curb. The Rice was four blocks beyond, but some ailment.” “What do you mean? Is there anything wrong with Mr. Dale?” “No. That's the trouble. H o completely all right every woman who ever sees him wants to take him home for keeps.” “Money?” inquired Judith guile lessly. “Not much. Doesn't need ft. Not that he’s so heart breakingly hand- some, but he has got a nice sort of a heman look about him. There’s a lot of millionaire mamas of mar- riageable daughters willing to make ap the deficit if he'll only promise to love, honor and cherish their off- spring. How he's managed to reach the ripe old age of twenty-eight without exchanging his freedom for a franchise is beyond my powers.” | (Copyright, 1984, by Jeanne Bowman) STEAMSHIP Co.
