The recent national slump in

About 600 AAA workers, half of

“Interviews” Sleep Victim
Ruth Cowan Tells of Wild
Amazement in Eyes of
Patricia Magunrez
By RUTH COWAN -
(Copyright, 1934, by the Assogciated

CHICAGO.~— () —Wild amaze~
ment, almost terror, shows from
the eyes of Patricia Maguire as
she struggles to awaken from her
long “sleep” of two years, hine
months and 22 days. ‘
I saw this girl, whose case ten
tatively identified as lethargic
encephalitis or sleeping sickness
has baffled medical science, a year
ago, and I saw her today.
I saw surprising signs of im
provement apparent even to a lay
man. I saw definite signs that
conaciousness had returned in
part. I witnessed tests. - |
I saw her gurgling, gasping
struggle to break through a terri
ble barrier and speak-—and I have
and deep feeling she will succeed
eventually. |
A yvear ago the pretty 29-year-}
old girl's eyes had the vacant
look of the blind. The pupils were
cloudy. -Today they were clear
eves of hazel and they have vis
ion.
I know she saw me as I stood by
her bed today. I sensed she was
aware of the presence of a stran
ger. She kept her eyes on me as
I backed away. =~
Last year her eyes rotated aim
lessly. Even so I thought she saw
a little for she squinted one eye
the better to clear the vision in
the other. But she did not hold
her eyes steadily.
Today they are steady and even
ly focused. Also there's expres
sion.
Her mother, Mrs. Peter Miley,
who has never left her side since
she lansed into a coma February
13, 1932, picked up a school child’s
slate. She said:
«T will prove to you that Pat
can see and read.”

Japan Given Warning By
Norman H. Davis Today
GOD REVEALED
TO ALL MANKIND
ee I eel e B . OS i e 5 N
The Nineteenth Psalm opens to
us two books, from which man may
read and in which he may find re
velations concerning God. The
Book of Nature gives us a strikin3l
and arresting revelation concem-f
ing God. “The heavens declare the
glory of God; and the tirmament}
sheweth His handywork.” The!
Book ,of Law gives us just as grip
ping a description of the purity a,ndi
perfection of His righteousness—
“The Law of the Lord is perfect,
converting the soul.” |
Christians believe that when Je
sus came into this world He made
a new revelation of God, for He
interpreted God’s life in Human
‘Form, as He moved about in the
midst of men engaged in the or
\dinary pursuits of life, For nearly
,twenty centurles art, in all of its
forms, has labored to perpetuate
the story of His life: Poetry has
lavished all of its epfthets and
' music. has contributed every con
| ccivable note of its scale to repeat
!this the sweetest story that the
iworld has ever heard. Murillo's
picture poem, “The Immaculate
Conception of the Virgin,” which is
one of the master-pieces in the
Louvre at Paris, should rank with
Milton’'s “Paradise Lost” in the
tremendous thrill 1t gives to the
human imagination; and the vivid
portralture of the “Adoration of the
Shepherds” is the master-piece of
Rembrandt, and he has made it
pulsate with life until the very
lieht coming from the Holy Child
dims the shepherme’ lantern; and
Raphael in the “Sistine Madonna'
in surpassing himself, has surpass- |
ed all others, and reached the ult{-
ma thnle of art. This time of the‘
year our minds ang hearts arg
turned to the birth of the Christ,
as the revelation of God to man.

Ambassador Cites Danger
Of Scrapping Wash

LONDON — (#) — Japan was
warned by Norman H. Davis to
day that by scrapping the Wash
ington naval treaty she would en
danger security, create suspicion
and force the world into a costly
naval race. ;
The American ambassador-at
large also announced for the first
time that President Roosevelt has
proposed ‘“a substantial all-round
reduction in naval armaments,”
Since no agreemene vo reduce has

speech before the American Cor
respondents association, the United
States strongly advocates continu
ing the Washington and London
treaties with their assurance of
“equality of security.”
(Japanese spokesmen have ser
ved notice that Japan will denounce
the Washington treaty, which gives
the Far Eastern nation the small
er end of a 5-56-3 ratio.)
The speech was the first co
oprehensive public pronouncement
of the American pusition since the
