" CATTON’S COMMENT |
/The man who said that there are lies, dam’ lies,
and{ statistics touched a popular- chord. Most of us
learniéd to dislike figures while -we were studying
arithmetic in grade school and never got over %
U):foktunately, however, about the only way we
can guage the progress of our business recovery is|
by statistics. Still more’ unfortunately, -the statistics
that afte now at hand are not entirely comforting.
']’hey’ show progress, to be sure—but progress of
a kind which creates new problems to replace the
old -ones.
John T. Flynn summed it up very concisely in
his recent newspaper articles.
Cpmparing our industrial output today with that
of 1929, Mr. Flynn demonstrated that we have
traveled G 4 percent of the way back—a pretty fair
record, as far as production is concerned. \
But in the matter of re-employment, we have
covered only 28 percent of the distance. In wage
Jevels, the gain from the 1932 low point is only 18
pergent. In payrolls, we have gained but. 21 per
cent.
Mr. Flynn draws this inescapable deduction
from these figures:
“It is perfectly plain that employers ave spending
an ‘even smaller fraction of the cost of producing
goods upon their workers.” 4 i
. This does not mean that employers are @ mean
and conniving set of chiselers. It simply indicates
shat our recovery efforts are bumping up against
the knottiest problem of the modern age—the dis
maying fact that modern industry is progressively
able to produce more and more goods with the ex
penditure of less and less human effort.
In the long run, any society which hopes to find
its way back to a condition of peaceful plenty must
find some way of answering that challenge.
Tbe Marxist says that there is no answer—that
under capitalism it is utterly impossible to have
both plenty and profits.
" The ordinary American won't accept that state
meni, But for that very reason his obligation is so
muclh-the greater to find out how, under the exist
ing social framework, the puzzle can be solved.
. No recovery can be on a sound basis until em
ployment, wage, and payroll levels rise at some
thifipg approaching the rate of production levels.
; TOLL OF DISEASE ‘
By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN
Editor, Journa! of the American Medical Associa
: &tion, and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine.
hile people talk in large figures about national
budgeté and the cost of relief, they fail to realize
that some diseases take a terrible toll of dollars
each yvear from the American people. é
Wjgures just made available indicate that the
vearly cost {o the 650,000 Americans who suffer
with tuberculcsis is $350,000,000.
The average duration of the disease is five years.
That means a total cost for that period of nearly
$2,000,000,000.
. One reason why tuberculosis is such an expeny
sive disease for the state is the fact'that: it Kills
mof‘ people in early adult and middle age than
doés apy Other disease. Tuberculosis warrants far
more :&tention than has been given to it, notwith
slfms the fact that the campaign is extensive.
ath rates during the last 50 years have been
cut. fram 275 to 300 a thousand to as low as 76 to
100 a thousand. However, it should be Ppossible to
réduce the number of deaths even more.
i l{ow'adays the great campaign on tuberculosis
takes gognizance of the fact that early ' attention
and particularly early discovery of the disease, are
the mest significant factors in its control. Seen
earlr, cure is frequent; seen late, cure is difficult,
if not jmpossible. A
Figures show that the right kind of treatment
given within six months of the time when the
symptoms first appear reduces the average expense
of handling the disease about $250 a patient. On
the other hand, if there is a <delay of one year in
finding out about the disease, the average cost of
handling is more than $3,900 a patient, or S9OO
above the average cost of treatment.
Of course, the best way to take care of tubercu
losis. particularly that which is rather advanced,
is t, have the patient in a properly conducted sana
torium or similar institution. Cost in such - insti
tutions approxmates $3.50 a day.
If a patient is seen early, he may be brought un
der control in about five months. If, however, he
first begins tc get institutional care when he is in
the third stage of the disease, nine months may be
required.
© The saving of four months to the patient and to
the public meuns a great deal toward lowering the
cost of caring for the tuberculous. It also means
more beds are available in sanatoriums for
fl:}he who require samatorium attention.
¥ The modern method of detecting tuberculosis in
its earliest stages involves a careful history of the
‘patient, use of the X-ray, use of the skin tests now
‘geners available, and finally use of the usual
methods of physical examination by thumping the

HOOVER IS MANEUVERING
Former President Herbert Hoover, who
‘spent several days in New York last week,
is evidently feeling out the pulse of Repub
lican leaaers as to his candidacy for the
nomination for the presidency next year.
While Mr. Hoover did not indicate his de
sireg in the matter, there was enough mys
tery surrounding his actions to warrant the
belief that the former leader of his party
might accept the nomination, should it be
offered to him.
It is commonly known that his defeat in
1982 has stunz him deeply, and for re
venge he is anxious to once more oppose
Mr. Roozevelt. Times and conditions have
not changed form trose of 1932 sufficient
to warrant the Republicans to nominate
Hoover as their standard bearer in 1936.
His policies caused the most disastrous de
pression that has ever been visited upon
this nation. Whether the depression was
due to the policies of Mr. Hoover or not,
he received the credit for the conditions
and explanations will not suffice the voters
ol this countyy. = v L
His friends in New York are divided as
to his real purpose and intent as to be
coming a candidate for the nomination.
One group indicates that he will, while the
other gioup states that he will not. That
is about the truth of the matter; the whole
thing waiting on Mr. Hoover to make up
his mind and there will not be any action
until that point is settled. There is no doubt
about Mr. Hoover being anxious to enter
the race, but that desire comes from a dis
appointed ambition, and it makes little dif
ference who the Republicans nominate, the
Democrats will win again.
Hoover will never gain political power,
but he may remain an important factor in
the deliberations of the party’s council.
That, however, will not come in the next
election. If the Republicans expect to
make a showing next year, they will have
to present a sound and substantial plat
form. ;
HONORING MEMORY OF ‘WOME?I
The municipality of Dallas, Texas, has
recently held a celebration, honoring the
memory of twelve outstanding women of
the nation. Among the list of those nom
inated for honoring there appeared the
name of Harriet Beecher Stowe. The man
ner of honoring the memory of these great
women was by the planting of trees. How
ever, it was not thought wise nor was the
suggestion of the name of the author of
“Uncle Tom’s Cabin, relished by the peo
ple in the Texas city. The name was strick
en from the honorary list, and Mrs. Stowe
was not so honored.
Prior to the War Between the States,
Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote the fiction
story of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”, dealing
with times and conditions in the South dur
ing the days of slavery. The book contain
ed many blood curdling misrepresentations
and contributed more to bringing on the
war than any other agency—more than
slavery, itself. It fired the prejudices of
the people of the North and caused thous
ands of them to shoulder arms, who other
wise would not have opposed secession.
While “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” proved a
great seller, it was, indeed, unfortunate for
ever finding its way into print. So little
of it was true, but the colorful outrages
described in its pages caused the blood of
the people of the North to boil. They would
read the book, grab their old muskets and
hie themselves away to join the union
army. There were no ‘“Uncle Tom’s” in
slavery days, but all the slaves received the
best of treatment, and lived a great deal
more comfortably than do the negroes of
the present time. ~
However, the book had much to do with
bringing on the war which was the most
unfortunate differences that have arisen
between the people of this nation.
WHAT WILL GERMANY DO?
The disturbances that have been going
on among the European countries for the
past several months has caused England,’
France and Italy to set up and take notice. i
The repudiations of the Versailles treaty
by Hitler was the starting point for a dis
ruption that may end in more than words.
However, it is quite apparent that France,
especially, is not seeking trouble and that
the officials of that country are willing to
go as near stultification, as possible, in or
der to avoid friction that might lead to an
other war.
' Senator Borah, sound and sane on many
matters, has given out an interview that
may be the answer to the present muddle.
He said: “Germany will do as she pleases
and the allies will submit to it. The Ver
sailles treaty will be scrapped and that
will be a good thing”. |
From past experiences, it is quite evi-l
dent that the people will agree with Sen
ator Borah, insofar as Germany is doing
as ‘“she pleases”. There has never been
the least doubt, but that Germany’s inten
tions, all along have been to build up a
greater army, navy and air service than}
that possessed by other countries. The new
army in Germany, now in process of or
ganizing, proves conclusively that Hitler
has made up his mind to be ready for any
outbreak that might arise from other na
tions.
Aerial strategists contend that the
fighting plane will evolve itself into a two
seater monoplane of low-wing construc
tion. The Army Air Service has approved
five types of two-seat fighters, while the
navy has put its approval on two of this
type.

Hotel, at Eureka Springs, Ark., is a

tainside and runways connect the floors

MILLICENT GRAVES, sec
retary to George Drimgold
retary to GEORGE DRIM
GOLD, finds her employer dead
in his office. Millicent has a
notebook in which Drimgold
had begun to dictate a con
fession. In panic she rushes
away, registers at a hotel un
der an assumed name.
JARVIS HAPP, a stranger,
offers to help her. He sends
her to a beauty shop where
she is trassformed into a bru
net, then takes her home, in
troduring her as his 'secretary,
She meets Happ's son, NOR
MAN; his stepson, ROBERT
CAISE; and MRS. HAPP.
That night a note under her
door informs Millicest, “The '
woman in black ermine s
here.” Millicent sees the wo
man in black drive away and
follows in Robert Caise’s
coupe, but runs out of gas.
She walks home, enters the
chauffeur’s quarters and finds
him dead.
Next morning Millicent goes
to her room and finds VERA
DUCHENE, Mrs. Happ’'s maid,
there. Vera threatens to tell
the detective that Millicent
was out of the house the night
before, then leaves.
There is a knock at the
door and a voice says, “It's
Sergeant Mahoney.”
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXIV.
Millicent hesitated only long
enough to -push the pieces of paper
under the corner of the carpet:
Then -she got % her feet and
crossed to the door.
She opened it and said, “Come
in, Sergeant Mahoney.”
A man of perhaps 34 or 35 years
of age, with sympathetic brown
eyes, bushy black ' eyebrows, a
well-formed, smiling mouth, high
cheek-bones, broad shoulders and
slender waist, bowed with just
that degree of politeness which
indicated that his call was offi
cial, that he was aware of ameni
ties of the situation, but that his
primary purpose was to uncover a
murderer.
“You're Millicent Graves?”
SYeR” !
“You knew Harry Felding, the
dead man?” i
“I had seem him, that was all.”
He shot the next question at her
with the impact of a blow. “Whp
Killed him?”
“I'm sure,” she said, “I couldn't
tell you.”
“Know anything about what was
happening here last night?”
“I'm afraid I can't tell you very
much.”
He crossed to a chair, smiled at
her, and said, “Mind if I sijt
down?”
“Not in the least.”
“Care if I smoke ”
“Not at all.”
“Will you join me?”
“No, thank you.”
“Don’t ‘smoke?”
“Sometimes, but not now.” \
He sat, watching her for a few
moments with a quizzical expres
sion on his face. He lit a cigaret
and the blue smoke escaped from
his nostrils, curling upward so
that his eyes seemed to stare in
tently at her from a blue ha%e.
“T can see,” he said, “that you're
all primed to answer the orthodox
type of questions.”
“What do you mean by the or
thodox type of questions?”’ ~
He laughed and said, “The kind
I seldom ask. What do you think
of Vera Duchene?” 1
The question took her by sur- 1
prise. : <
_"She's rather _beautiful” she
He nodded slowly and went on,
“And she’s going somewhat out
of her way to impress Detective
Buchanan with his manly import
ance, don’t you think?” i
_ Surprise showed on Millicent’s
face. “Good heavens!” she said.
“Ilow long have you been here?"”
“About 15 minutes.”
“And you've found that out in
so short a time?”
Qi ves. '
~You've seen Miss Duchene?”
“] saw her a few minutes ago.
She was earrying a dress over her
arm. She tried to conceal the
dress when she saw me. 1 gath
ered there might be some mud
stains on the dress, and I wonder
qd if you knew anything about
%
The brown eyes stared intently
at Millicent and she squared her
shoulders, tilted her chin and
said, “Yes, it was mine.”
- He waited for her to.go on, but
Miilicent stood silent.
After a few mmoents, Sergeant
Mahoney said, “I'm very glad in
deed that you told me that.”
“Why?” she asked.
“Because,” he said, "I knew it
was your dress, but I didn’t think
you'd admit it.”
“Did Vera Duchene tell you?”’
“No, she was trying to keep it
secret.”
. Millicent nodded, and said noth
ing. -
Sergeant Mahoney glanced at
her, smiled, and said, "“And now
you're steeling yourself to give
me answers to the questions that
you think I'm going to ask, ques
tions about how it happened your
dress got muddy, what you were
doing last night, and when you got
back. Isn't that right?”
She couldn’t help but not in in
voluntary acquiescence.
. “I haven't analyzed my feelings
perhaps quite as exactly as you
have, but 1 guess there's some
thing of that kind in my mind, all
right.”
“Thereiore,” he said, "suppose
we try another line of question
ing?’
“What?”’ she inquired.
“Why was Miss Duchene trying
to conceal the garment from me?”
“Did you ask her that?”’
“No, I'm asking you?”
“I would prefer not to tell you."
“Do you know ?”
“Yes, 1 think I do.”
“PThere’'s nothing in common be
tween yol and Miss Duchene, is
there?”
“Nothing whatever.”
“Then, looking al the problem
from an impartial standpoint, it
would appear that either Miss
Duchene was trying to hide the
dress in order to shield you, or be
cause she had discovered some
piece of information which was
damaging and wanted to use it as
a club over you. Naturally, if she
disclosed her information, it ceas
ed to be something she could use
as a. club. How's that for a
guess?”
* ‘She did not answer him, but he
laughed and said, “You really
don’t need to answer. I can read
the answer ‘in your face. Now
then, suppose you tell me what it
was that Vera Duchene was try
ing to force you to do.”
“You're having such success
answering vour own questions,”
Millicent said, smiling, “that 1
don’t see there’s anything for me.
to say." .
“I would prefer to have you te}lJ
me.”
“I would prefer not to.”
“Why?” :
“I don’t know.”
‘“Just & feeling that you don’t
want to snitch on some other per
son?” g
“I can fight my own ba .
He shook his head slowly. “No,”
he*gaid, *‘you can't, 1 think you've
been trying to fight too many of
your own battles already. 1 think
you've tried to Kkeep your own
counsel, and 1 don’t think you've
had enough confidence in the po
lice. Suppose you tell me your
story now from the beginning.”
She clamped her lips and shook
her head.
“You won't?”
Nol: £
“Why not?”
“I think,” she said, “that I would
much prefer to have you talk with
Mr. Happ about me.”
“Yes,” he- said‘ siowly, “I'll do
that. In the meantime, let's get
back to this dress business. Miss
Duchene wants a club over you.
Now why 'would she want a club
over you?”’
. Millicent sat silent.
The brown - eyes narrowed, as
Sergeant Mahoney considered the
problem.
“Miss Duchene,” he said, “ac
cording to her story, couldn’'t have
had anything whatever to do with
the murder. She was home and in
bed, and yet I have reason to
doubt that she was here as early
as she says. Now, if she had been
implicated in the murder, she'd
have wanted to establish an. alibi.
Therefore, 'she would have want
ed to make it appear she was out
of the house and away irom the
premises as late as possible.
“Sha doesn’t want to do that,
but tries to bring herself home
earlier than the time of her ar
rival,. tries to .get a club to use
over you. One would say that
what she particularly wanted was
to have you swear that she spent
the- night with you after she re
turned.” i
Miliicent .gave a visible start of
surprise.
“No, don’'t be surprised,” Ser
geant Mahoney said. “It's simply
plain logic. She wants a club over
you. Therefore she wants you to
do something. That something,
undoubtedly, is to swear to some
thing that isn't so. I have every
reason to believe she lied about
the time she came home. For the
reasons I have mentioned, she
probably isn't implicated in the
anurder,, but she is implicated in
something that would cause her a
1 -of trouble. How about Robert
Caise?”
“What about him?” she asked.
“Do you know whether he was
out with Miss Duchene?”
No,. "
_“I am just wondering,” Sergeant
Mahoney said almest dreamily.
Millicent said nothing.
I Abruptly Sergeant Mahoney got
.- to -his feet. “Well,” he said, ‘l'm
very glad I met you and, by the
way, -has Robert ‘Caise something
that he’s. holding over you?™
Millicent said slowly, “I'm
iarraid 1. won't have any secrets
from you if you keep asking
| questions.”
I “Quite =ll right” he said. “IN
"talk with Robert about it.”
| “Do you think hell tell you?”
“Oh, yes,” ’'Sergeant Mahone}
said, laughing cheerily, “he’ll tell
me. People always tell me things.
Lots of times they tell me more
lt.han they expect to. And now,
good mornisg.”
' He left the room, walking with
i quick, purposeful steps, as though
|he knew exactly - where he was
i going and what he was going te
,do when he got there.
- Millicent found herself trem
| bling like a leaf. Surely this man
was dangerous. She could have no
secrets around him. She thought
of flight. Did she dare to run
away? There seemed no other way
out.
She looked hastily about, won+
dering what she could take with
her, and- then = decided that she
dared not take anything except
the clothes she wore. She slipped
into her fur coat, put on her hat,
gave a final touch to her face and
lips. : [
She gently opened the door inte
the corridor, listened for a mo
ment, then thrust out her head.

NEW YORK-—New, Yorkers have
a lot of peculiar troubles with -do
mestic employes. (“Servants” s
scareely” the, word.)' I've heard of
butlers who wanted access'to the
library or music room, at certain
hours; and maids who demanded
two ' evenings a week out, with
chauffeur and car assigned td take
them on their visits.
A lady recently returned from
Reno ‘is explaining that her un
usually long stay was all the fault
of henr maid. As soon as her di
vorce was granted she gave orders
to pack up for the return to Man
hattan, but the maid said no, they
would, have to remain another two
weeks, It seems the girl had quiet
1y arranged a_ divorce for herself,
but the decree couldn’t be grant
ed for an extra fortnight.
The Martin Greenes had a cook
of such indolence and general
leathargy that they were surprised
one” morning when she announced
that she’'d haye to be leaving
them. Did she have a better place?
Yes, indeed, she assured them
brightly. One:of her cousins had
promised to get her on the city
relief rolls, and after that she
wouldn’t have to ‘work at all.
Cultist-Butler
I.know of a well-educated Gev
man who spends his working
hours in the sember garb of a
butler in one of the avenue man
sions. He's always impatient to get
those clothes off, though, because
he happens to be the leader of one
the largest nudist organizations in
the east. His employers know of
his avocation, and haven't protest
ed. But @ they have mnightmares
about what might happen if he be
came absent-minded. i
Thyra Samter Winslow, the
writer, advertised for a house
man and was called upon by a
tall, handsome young Hindu: IMirst
thing he did was bow and Kkiss
her hand. Then he strolled about
the living room, commenting on
the authenticity of certain bric-a
brac, a rug and a couple of chairs.
If he were employved here, he
asked, would he have to live in
the hoise? She s¢aid yes. And, he
inguired coldly, would he be ex
pected to assist while she was vn
tertaining? She replied, a litile
apologetically, toat he would.
The applicant said he fed§ed
that he would be quite out of the
question, because he was taking
his degree of Doctor of Philosophy
at Columbia, and preferred to
have his evenings to himself.
Servant?—Sßavant!

steps.
Suddenly a door opened.
Cynthia Happ stepped into the
corridor. She saw Millicent stand
ing not more than 12 feet away.
Raising her rigid forefinger, point
ing it at Millicent, she screumcd,‘
“There’'s the woman who threw
the keys into the pond!”
There was a swirl of motion be
hind Mrs. Happ. Millicent’s
startled eyes saw the face of Ser- !
geant Mahoney.: His eyes were no
longer smiling. His face was set
in grim uncompromising lines.
“Arrest that woman!’” ‘Mrs.
Happ screamed.
