i CATTON’S COMMENT
BY BRUCE CATTON
While ccngressmen. I¢ bbyigts and innocent by
standers continue to wrangle over the way in which
Congress was or was not persuaded to knock out the
“death sentence” in the utility holding companies
bill, the rest of us are apt to overlook the fact that‘
whether we use private or public capital lwe ax'ev gO~ ‘
ing to have to build some new power generating
plants in the near future, ;
Harold Ward outlines the potential power shortag: |
in ari articig appearing in a recent issue of the Ne
‘Republic. ie reports that a federal power survey
showed the following facts:
“Any resumption of normal economic activity would
find bur exisilng generating plant 4,000,000 Kkilowatts
ghort of adequute capacity . . . we would Jack the
power equivalent to 50 large generating stations, each
of which would require from two to seven years to
put into operation - . . Furthermore. 68 per cent of
existing plants are from 10 to 30 years old; an ap
palling degree of obsoléscence . . . The report esti
mates that 1937 power consumption will increase by
about 26 per cent compared to 1929.”
St mgkes an odd picture, somehow—industry and
l". governnient wrangling oper the financial set-up of
" the power combine, while all the while an enormous
untouched power market is awaiting exploitation.
And it is more or less typical of the attitude we have
adopted in regard to many other phraseg of our tco
nomic life.
To hear the talk that has been going the rounds
during the last two or three years one would suppose
that the entire production machinery of the United
Btates would have to put on a leash for the next gen
_eration. * Cut farm production, slow down the mills,
restrain the markets don't let anyone produce any
more than tomorrow’y orders will take care of—that
seems to be the sentiment,
And yet all the while the greatest market in the
world’s history lies all about us fairly begging to be
supplied!
It is of course a great deal easier to talk about the
existence of this market than it ig to equip it with
the necessary purchasing power. And yet there is
“ nothing more certain than full buying power will
eventually return—and when it does all of these re
strictive devices we have been talking about will
Jook like the Ift-overs of some bad dreams.
Our mental attitude right now is important, If we
stop looking back at the restricted markets of the last
tew years and look ahead to the opportunitied which
await us, that “loss of confidence” about which peo
ple talk so much will disappear overnight.
The annual grand maneuvers of the Japanese navy
are under way now, and the fieet is going through
strategic exercises somewhere in the northwest Pa
cific in the vicinity of the Kurile islands.
A few weeks ago the United States performed its
exercises in the Pacific, and, the pacfists screamed
to high heaven about it. Now the Japanese fleet is
doing just what‘our own fleet did—and just as no one
in the United Stateg is in the least worried by this
Japanese action, it seems fair to assume that the
action of our own fleet caused no worry on'the other
side if the Pacific.
As a matter of fact, a good deal of fuss was made
over u:.bthlng. Our fleet practiced the maneuvers it
-\\would Aise in case of war with Japan; now the 'Japa
nese fleet is practicing the maneuvers it would "use in
case ofsa war with us—and who, on either side'of the
water, has been harmed?

A SPLENDID RECORD
The members of the State Board of Con
trol are to be congratulated on the econo
mic and business like manner in which
they have conducted the affairs of the
State Hospital and the eleemosynary insti
|tutions of the state. All of these institu
tions showed a bal&nce on hand at the
close of business for the first six months of
the year with the exception of the State
Hospital which showed a small deficit on
account of the increased number of pa
tients and the increased cost of food. How
ever, this institution by establishing and
operating an abattoir has reduced the cost
of meats several thousand dollars annual-|
ly. The operation of all the state institu
tions under the management of the Board
of Control have been placed under a busi-]
ness system and each department of the
various institutions is audited semi-annu
ally and every dollar appropriated for the
various purposes are accounted for by
those responsible for the conduct of these
institutions. |
There is need for increased housing!
quarters for the mentally sick and physi
cally disabled. While over seven thousand
of such patients are being cared for, the
number is continually increasing and will
do so in the future. Georgia cannot af
ford to permit her feeble minded, mentally
deranged, temporarily or permanent, to be
without hospital treatment and the best of
nursing. These unfortunate people are a
charge on the state and are an obligation
that the state should assumz and provide
every necessity for their comfort and
health. A report of the various state in
stitutions as given out by W. C. Pitner,
district member of the Board of Control,
was enlightening and informing to the
public. It should be read by everyone in
order that the people may become better
acquainted with their institutions and es
pecially with the management that has so
ably and conscientiously directed the af
fairs of one of the state’s most important
departments.
TOM MOONEY’S CASE REVIVED
Back in 1916, fom Mooney was arrest
ed for throwing a bomb in the crowd at
tending a Preparedness Day parade. Sev
eral were killed and injured; Moon
ey was arrested for the crime, tried
and - convicted. The case was kept
in the courts for years before he was final
ly landed in prison to serve a life sentence.
Since his incarceration, he has succeeded
in securing several new trials on the
grounds of discovery of new evidence. In
each instance, the juries found him guilty
and the courts sustained the findings of‘
;the jury and court of the first trial. Then‘
appeal after appeal has been made to the
governors of California; his pardon has
been made the issue in several guberna
torial campaigns and in each election, the
candidate opposing a pardon for Mooney
has been elected. When Jimmy Walker
was mayor of New York, he undertook to
secure a pardon for Mooney. He went to
California and sought clemency of the
governor, but to no avail. The labor unions
and other organizations have been untir
ing in their efforts to have this man set
free, but the evidence was so convincing,
no governor of that state, since his convic
tion, has felt justified in granting a par
don, consequently, Mooney has remained
in prison. The latest move for a new trial,
based on the discovery of new evidence,!
has been instituted in San Francisco. A
traveling man, a laborer and a man and a
woman have come forward, after a lapse
of nineteen years to offer an alibi astothe
whereabouts of Mooney on that fatal day
in 1916. It may be that he will be given
another trial, but such evidence should
not be considered by any court. With the
nineteen or twenty trials resulting in con
}viction each time, and the number of ap
\peals for pardons refused, for the courts;
to now permit a reopening of the case and!
'the granting of a new trial, would be a
travesty on justice. |
We have no interest in the case other
than that which is right and just. If this
man is given another trial, and by some
technicality perhaps gain his freedom, the
verdict would be a blot on the state and
should be sufficient cause for the impeach
ment of the jury. Tom Mooney was known
to be a red and a Communist. His record
was colored with disloyalty to American
citizenship. He was a member of the I. w.|
W., organization and a well known public|
enemy of the United States. In our belief,l
he was fortunate in escaping a deathk
sentence. If there is any criticism to be
made of the trial and conviction, it should
be the failure of the jury in not finding a
verdict sentencing him to the electric}
chair. %

’ BEGIN HERE TODAY |
JO DARIEN, finishing her
first year in college, learns
her father is out of work. Jo
hunts a job and secures part
| time work in a marine. supply
store. There she meets weal
thy, handsome DOUGLAS
| MARSH who offers her the job
. of hostess at his inn at Crest
Lake Jo accepts. This
| causesg a quarrel with BRET .
PAUL to whom she is engaged
| and Jo breaks the engage
: ment.
| She goes to Crest Lake.
| Her, duties are pleasant but’
| Marsh's eccentric mother takes
a dislike to the girl. BABS
' MONTGOMERY, a school ac
| quaintance who is jealous of -
| Jo’s popularity, comes to the
‘ Inn. PETER FRAGONET, film =
| actor, and his wife are also
| guests.
Fragonet takes Jo out in a
sailboat. There is an accident
and she narrowly escapes
| drowning. Next day Fragonet
comes to see her. He tells Jo
he loves her, takes her in his’
arms. MRS. FRAGONET and
* MRS. MARSH witness the
scene and accuse Jo of encour
aging Fragonet’s attentions.
Fragonet goes to Hollywood,
promising to return soon. Jo
discovers that Bret Paul is the °
new life guard at Crest Lake.
She and Bret have a talk, but
the rift between them remains.
Jo, on her way to the Inn, ¢
encounters Marsh.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
L s
| CHAPTER XXII.
i “We 11. smiled Marsh, “it's mce‘
to see you able to be about, Jo—
lund you're looking rermakably
| fit, too.”
Jo held out her hand. “You’ve‘
no idea. how nice it is,” she
laughed. “I'm afraid I've been a
great deal more trouble than you
bargained for.” %
“Nonsense! These things wlll‘
happen sometimes.”
T dan't mean . . .« Just the
accident out on ‘the lake,” Jo
said, her voice serious now.
’ He met her eyes squarely for a
{ moment. “Look here, Jo, let's have
i a little talk about things, shall
l\ve?" He rubbed his chin uncom-}
lt’m't:lbly. “I want to rid myself of
this hunting beard, and you'l}
l\\'nnt to change, no luobt. Sup-]‘
pose we meet down by the garage
in half go hour or so?” ;
} Jo nodded, relieved that she
! was to kmow where Marsh stood.
And perhaps he could help her;!
’too. with Fragonet, If she stayed;,
v at Crest Lake until the actor.l
returned *here might be furthen
awkward situations, Jo well
knew ~ ‘
l When she reached her rooms
she telephoned Tubby that the‘
tennis game was off. “The bussl
wants a conference with me,” shei
told Tubby lightly, “so I'll post~|
pone my challenge. until tomor-‘
row—if I'm still here.
“That's all right with me."
Tubby said. “And don't worry.
You'll be here, all right.” -
Marsh was running his cat‘
lfrum the garage just as Jo ap
peared, having changed her swim
auit for a gay cotton print that
revealed her lovely tanned shoul
aers and not a little of her en
viable back. I
' “Sure you weon't need a wrap l
Marsh asked. “It gets rather cool
along these forest roads, and 1
thought we might have dinner at
}the Lone Tree Tavern. It'll be a
welcome change for you, after
being cooped up in your room for
so long."”
Wall .- . " Jo heostiated,
thinking of the thin cotton frock.
““I'l drive by the steps of the
Inn and have Tom bring you
something. I've a leather jacket
that'll be just the thing.”
A toot from Marsh’s horn
brought the smiling. Oriental who
was quickly dispatched for the
leather jacket. and half a minute
later the little green roadster was
climbing valiantly toward the
knoll above the Inn. :
Marsh drove n silence, and Jo
wondered how to begin the ques
tions which were tossing around
in her head. : Finally, to her im
imense relief, Marsh himself asked
~a question which opened the sub
%ject which was worrying her most.
‘ “Did Pete Fragonet bother you
while I was gone?” he asked.
Jo shook her head. “No .:. .
he wrote me a note just before
he left for Hollywood.”
| Marsh chuckled reminiscently.
‘“He prorhised me he wouldn’'t try
to see you .But I had to promise,
too;” He ‘turned to her, smiling,
i“He seems really to be in love
- with you, Jo.”
“He imagjnes that he is,” she
replied, “and for the time being
that makes it just as difficult as
if he were.”
“Then you don’t love him?”
Marsh asked.
DO e Y
, He was silent a moment, and
when .he spoke again ~ his voice
was freighted with relief. ‘“You
don’t know how glad I am to hear
you say that, Jo. FPete Fragonet
is a friend of mine. I've liked him
very much-—but he’s like a great
spoiled child, ard a spoiled child
can hurt.”
“You mean you wouldn't quite
trust him?” » = &
- “Not with a woman's happi
ness,” Marsh said quietly. “And
yet I shouldm’t *say that about a
friend. - Perhaps, this time, Pete
is on the level. Why shouldn’'t
you be the one woman he'd fall
in love with and want to keep for
lever? You're young and beauti
ful, and you—" : . s BNy
Jo interrupted, embarrassed by
Marsh’'s words, “Tdalking of Fra
gonet brings up the whole ques
tion of whether or mnot I should
stay on here,' Mr. Marsh.”
" “Of course you should stay. Why
not?”
“I've caused trouble—und talk.”
. “Let: 'em talk,” Marsh . said.
“And if I head any of it myself
I'll put them right side up in a
‘devil of ‘a hurry.”
“But 1 don't think we've heard
thé end of 'it,” Jo said. ' “Mrs.
Fragonet is likely to make trou
ble, and with Fragonet so well
‘Kknown there are sure to be stories
in the newspapers.” .
“We'll hope for the best, Jo.”
“But . . . it would be awfully
bad for the name of Crest Lake.”
Marsh laughed. “If I were run
ning a strictly commercial enter
prise I might worry about that.
But I'm doing this for fun mainly,
and most of the people who come
here are my 4friends. If they're
real friends it won't matter how
much scandal Fragonet stirs' up.”
“But—" Jo faltered, “there’'s al
ways the chance that—that your
name might get mixed up some
wayv.”
He turned to her with a wide
grin, “I remember one thing my
father told me when I was just a
little kid. He said that if 1 had
any brains and was able to keep
what he left me people would be
sure to talk about me whenever
Mhey got the chance. He said not
to worry . about it, because if I
didn't get into a scandal then
people would eventually manu
facture one about me.”
“I dom’t think your mother be
lieves that,” Jo remarked mis
cnieyously. cis |
~¥ou're right. Mether dtin't Le
lieve very much cf anytkine Ihst
Dad said.”
“Don’ tyou really think it would

We went to owners of average cars—

At the end of the trial, 7 out of 10 voted

THAT GOOD GULF GASOLINE
‘be better for me to leave before
‘Fragonet comes back with the pic
{ ture: company?”’ Jo asked.
I “I do not,” Marsh answered
;quickly. “I'll wire them they can't
lmake scenes on my place before
iT'll see you leave on that ac
l'count. And Il tell you this, Jo.
I’l‘here's no use trying to run away
from Pete Fragonet. You've got
to face him and tell him you don’t
love him: and never could love
him.”
“That's hard to do,” Jo said. “I
l'—somehow I sort of feel sorry for
| him.”
| Marsh nodded. ‘“That's what
\Pete does to women, all right. He
Erings out the mother instinct in
l'em. I suppose that's why he’s so
darned popular on tre screen.”
| “You can make fun of me if you
| want, but that’s the way I feel.”
|
He turned quickly. “I'm not
rmsking fun of you, Jo. I'm just
trying to warn you that Pete
Fragonet has a iot of eharm. And
I don’t want ,to see you hurt,
that's all.” He stopped the car,

relationship which would be cheap
and common and insincere, then—
