CATTON'S COMMENT
8Y BRUCE CATTON =———mesm==
Imposing stiff sentences on the three men con
victéd of criminal negligence in the disastrous Morro‘
Castle fire will probably satisfy the American public’'s
desire to “get even” with somebody for that tragedy,
even though it won't do very much in the way of
bringing the dead back to life.
Whether it will meet the demands of justice, in
an abstract sense, is another question,
she men convicted of criminal negligence are Act
ing Captain Willlam F. Warms; Chief Engneer Eben
S. Abbott, and Henry E. Cabaud, vice president of the
company which operated the Morro Castle. And al
though the evidence in the case seems ample to jus
tify sucr verdict, there is plenty of reason to believe
that the real culprit got off unscathed.
'£l3e culprit of course, was the system under which
the: Morro Castle was operated; the system that
jits fire traps to put to sea, that perfits owners
to man their ships with untrained ctews, that forces
a per to delay until the very last minute the
sending of an SOS in case emergency arises,
Cifnted that there was a tragic failure of the
human element in this disaster—that officers and
men alike acted in such way as to disgrace the tra
ditipns of the American merchany marine. That tact‘
does not tell the whole story. |
. These three men whom a federal court jury con-‘
wvicted of mnegligence did not design and build the
Morro Castle, and equip her with all manner of
flimsy and inflammable fittings that were bound to
go_up like tinder, once a blaze started. They didn’t
invent the high-pressure competition which sends
ships to sea manned by crews whom there has been
no time to drill and discipline properly.
Most important of all, they weren't responsible
for the change in merchant marine practices which
has reduced the captain us a ship to a mere figure
head, unable to do anything of importance without
a duly radioed authorization from his home office,
Those are the factors which made a wholesale
tragedy out of a little blaze that should have caused
no more than passing inconvenience, -
Many things are responsible for them-—business
depression, natural greed for profit, slipshod laws
governing the construction and inspection of passen
ger ships, and so on. Finding hte remedies will be @
slow, difficult job,
But until we do find them, the way will be open
dfor disasters like this of the Morro Castle to occur
again. Sending three scapegoats to prison will pro
vide no protection at all.
John Barrymore, nearing his 658 rd birthday, gives
the world a good bit of philosophy. And John's
words should be worth studying—he has lived a lot.
Says the noted actor: ;
“Every split second of my life has been worth it,
and T'll tell you why. An event in your life is like
a gold coin with two sides. On the other side of a
failure there's success, To be hit and knocked down
flat by a great tragedy gives me the capacity to be
lifted to the skies by a great happiness.”
It's a philosophy that applies all the way down the
human scale. A lot of u® acquired a bit of the out
look. during the last five years, when men and events
generally were skidding off the easy roads. And we
¢an use a lot more.
~The world is still crowded with folks working over
timeé at the failure side of their gold coin.

IT WAS JUST ANOIHER ORDER
An unusual incident in army life is re
ported from the military post near Hono
lulu. The occasion was a dance partici
pated in by the officers and their wives
and possibly a few guests of the officers.
While the dance was proceeding some of
the dancers were smoking and others
were chewing gum. Brigadier General
James B. Gowen saw them and immedi
ately repaired to his quarters and issued
an order banning smoking and chewing
gum on such occasions. Net satisfied with
these drastic restrictions, \he issued an
other order making it compulsory for the
officers to wear ton cocks with tan shoes;
white hock: with white shoe€s; black socks
with black shoes.
General Gowen, no doubt, belongs to
the old school type of army officers or is
it the type of recent years? Even in the
Revolutionary war, the soldiers were per
mitted to enjoy many pleasures to say
nothing of the privileges extended to the
officers and men in the World War. Such
orders may be in line with present customs
of army life; if it is, we would be in favor
of breaking over the regulations and de
mand freedom as relates to smokes, chew
ing gum and refreshments, '
COMMENCING THE YEAR RIGHT
The officers and directors of the Cham
ber of Commerce have laid out a pro
gram for the ensuing year that contains
many constructive features calculated to
advance the growth and development of
this city. One of the most important
movements is that of planning a program
for the encouragement of the trade at
home spirit. While the matter has not
been given serious consideration by many
local citizens who have made a practice
of shopping in other cities, it is believed
that when they understand the im
portance of home folk spending their
money with Athens merchants, the prac
tice of trading in other places will be dis
continued. If the Chamber of Commerce
succeeds in building up a home pride
spirit, it will centribute more for the bene
fit of the community than any accomplish
men* that has yet been brought about.
Another feature of potential bearing on
the future of this city is the proposal for‘
a state wide publicity campaign. While
Athens and its resources and advantages‘
are known far and near, yet it is timely
to offer a reminder of its educational in
stitutions, its public schools system, Uni
versity of Georgia, and other institutions
coordinated with the mother institution,
which hold unusual attractive news for
home-seekers and investors. Hotel facili
ties here are superior and more adequate
than can be found in any city of similar
population in the country. In fact, every
attraction for tourists and visitors is lo
}cated here. The golf course, one of the
'most complete in the United States, is at
the disposal of visitors. Historic spots of
note are here in great numbers, besides
being a commercial and industrial center
the equal of any in the country. In the
surrounding sections, tributary to Athens,‘
the agricultural interests cannot be sur
passed in the state. Above all places, it
is a good place in which to live and spend
one’s life, o 4 |
With President Tate Wright and Secre
tary Joel Wier, actively supported by the‘
directors, a board made up of men who
hold a deep interest in the welfare of this‘
city and section, the new year is bound to
show a marked increase in its growth andJ
development, |
\
THE CHURCH TAKES A HAND 1
; The members of the South Carolina leg
islature- have brushed aside Governor
:lohnston and his highway fight and gone
into a wrangle over an amendment to the
Constitution of that state permitting
granting of divorces by the courts. South
Carolina “occupies an unique position
among her sister states. There is no pro
vision in the Constitution of that state per
mitting legal separation, and never has
been since the state was founded. The
early settlers did not believe in divorces
and for that reason, when the Constitution
and laws of South Carolina were adopted,
the divorce evil was eliminated entirely
from its code. Now, however, members
of the present general assembly have in
troduced an amendment to the Constitu
tion providing for granting divorces under
certain restrictions. The bill has brought
on a bitter fight. Not only among the
members of the legislature, but the people
and the various Episcopal churches in the
diocese of South Carolina, under the lead
ership of Rt. Rev. A. S. Thomas, bishop.
He has come out strong against the pro
posed measure, appearing before the com
‘wmittee to which the bill was referred. The
committee members made a divided re
port, a majority of the members, how
ever, favoring the measure. The news
papers of that state have taken up the
fight along with the churches. The Beau
fort Gazette is very strongly opposed to
the bill. In commenting editorially on the
proposed divorce bill, the editor, in part,
said:
“When a man and woman are married
they are supposed to have settled them
selves for good or bad, and if they both
work and pull together, and are true to
each other, there will be no need for di
vorce laws. This grand old state has been
free from this stigma for years, and let it
stay that way.” ’
When the bill reaches the floor of the
Jegislature, it will meet with strong op
lposition. With an aroused people against
legalizing divorces, it is believed that the
bill will fail to pass. .

JULIA CRAIG, pretty young
secretary to GEORGE WOOD
FORD, 'awyer, is ambitious to
become a night club singer.
Julia shares an apartment
with AMY SANDERS.
PETER KEMP, young law
yer, is in love with Julia but
they quarrel and Julia declares
she never wants to see him
again.
Woodford qives ™a party
aboard his yacht and asks
Julia to come to sing for his
guests, including C I N T R A
LEE, dancer; MRS. JOSEPH,
widow; HUGO NASH, and
ROYAL NESBITT. Julia-goes,
later regrets it when she learns
the cruise is to be much long
er than a week-end.
The yacht lands at Ever
green llsand where Woodford
has a lodge. There Julia meets
TOM PAYSON who offers to
help her get away, but Payson
is discovered on the yacht and
forced to leave-
Nesbitt iis injured while the
men are hunting. Woodford’s
leaves at once to get Nesbitt
to a doctor. -
Julia arrives home. Cintra
Lee telephones and tells her
she can have a job singing on
TONY LATTA'S gambling
ship. /
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XIV
Next day, a little after five,
Julia found herself in a taxi bound
for one of the municipal wharves.
There, Cintra Lee " had told her
over the telephone the night' be
fore, she would find Tony Latta
ready to take her to his gambling
ship for her first professional en
gagement, -
All day long her better judg
ment had warred against the idea
—but already she had given Cin
tra her word. And.there remain
ed the fact that she was ouf of a
job amd must do something. But,
despite all this, she might still
have sent her excuses had it not
been for Amy Sander§-
“I'a .do- it Ax'ny"“(o}fl, her. “You
can take care of yourself, Julia.
It's not where a girl is, “biis._.what
she is. If you're sold on this €in
tra Lee, and she says that Latta
is all right, what more do you
want ?"” : i
So, bolstered with Amy's aa
vice, Julia kept her promise to
Cintra - Lee. All .day long she
had occupied. herself furiously with
small tasks around the apartment,
trying not to think of her event
val appointment with Latta. When
the time came, she ordered a cab
almost automatically — and now
here she was, headed straight for
Latta's gambling ship.
It seemed only a few minutes
before the taxi had stopped before
the wide gates -of the municipal
wharf. Trembling a little, Julia
got out and paid the driver. In
her excitement she almost forgot
her bag and he had to call after
her. - But when Julia reached out
a hand for it a low, strange voice
said, -“I'll take it, .please.” She
turned swiftly to look into dark
brown eyes—enigmatic eyes that
told nothing.
“T am Tony. And you are Miss
Craig?™
“Yes . . »" Julia faltered.
“1* recognized you from what
Cintra told me. You are ready to
come aboard .now?”
In thosé few seconds before she
found her voice to answer, Julia
examined Tony Latta. He was
rather short, and a little heavy—
a man somewhere beyond forty.
His eyes were the ‘eyes of his race,
deep and dark and beautiful. They
were his most—perhaps his only
—attractive ‘feature. - But his
smile .:--Mndtr!m S
- get G&U‘W&‘P’m
Thunder on the Other Side!
again. “You want to sing for my
customers?” He nodded quickly to
his own questions. “And about
the salary, 1 cannot pay : very
much, even though Cintra tells me
you are very good. Suppose we
start at S4O a week?”
Julia. started. Her salary at
Woodford and Brooks had been
$27.50 a week.
' Mistaking her hesitation, Latta
added, “That includes your meals
aboard the ship; if you want them.
And: alsp you can have a room-—
or you can come in with the last
taxi boat.”
“I—l think I'd rather stay in
town,” Julia said.
' Latta shrugged. “Even if you
do, S4O is all 1 can afford to pay.”
“That will be . . . quite satis
factory, Mr. Latta.”
His' wide smile flashed . again.
“Good! . . . And one other thing.
Everybody calls me Tony. No
body calls me ' Mr. Latta unless
they do not like me much. I think
right from the start-you should
call me Tony, and I should call
vou Julia. lls it a go?”
Julia laughed. “It's a go,” she
agreed, wondering what there was
about this short, dark man that
was s 0 likable.
But when he led her to the enda
of the wharf where four sleek
mahogany runabouts were moored
she felt as if she were about to
step into an abyss from which as
return would be difficult. At sight’
of Latta, a man appeared from}
out the sedan-top of the nearest
boat. 1
“Ready to go, Tony?” |
“All ready. Put the light on
the ladder, Pete.”
Below her Julia saw the narrow
rungs which made it possible to
Loard the water taxi, In no time
at al] she and Latta were aboard,
and the boat seemed to literally
lgap away from the dock. Julia
caught her breath at the sudden
speed, and Latta smiled.
“Phese boats are very fast,” he
said. “I have had them a long
time.” He looked at her slyly, like
a small boy confessing a pecadillo.
“1 had them before prohibition
was renealed., Before,” he added
with a smile, “pefore 1 decided
that it was not right to be break
‘ing_ the law.”
4] see,’ said Julia uncertainly.
“Yousknow my ship is perfectly
legal?' he" asked anxiously. “It
does not operate in the state, and
sp it is not subject to state laws.
You know that?”
“Oh, ves,” laughed Julia, “Cintra
told me. I wouldn't have taken
‘the job if she hadn’t assured me
of that.”
" Latta nodded. “I believe you,
Julia. You are a good girl. I can
see that with only one eye. And
that is what I want. Cintra says
you sing like—l think she said it
‘was like nobody’'s business.”
“I hope she didn’t build me up
§0 much that you'll be disappoint
ed.” :
“I ecannot tell a good note from
‘a bad one” Latta confessed. “But
1 take Cintra’s word for anything.
‘And anyhow, my customers will
tell me if they do not jike you.”
He laughed uproariocusly at this
last remark, but somehow Julia
could not find it amusing. “I hope,”
she thought, “that I can last the
week eut”
But when the speedy boat had
left the harbor and encountered
the heavier weather outside she
was not so certain that she would
want to last the week out. The
‘runabout seemed to leap from one
wave crest to the next, and each
wave slapped the bottom like a
‘giant sledge. Lt
. “Does it get rougher than thig?"
‘She asked. - ' 2 o
. “Rough?’ Tony Latta st
m,_._“’l‘his is not rough.
These' boats will take more than
you think—and sometimes it is
pretty bad.” He smiled at her, “I
think sometimes you will change
your x‘xind about wanting to come
back into town.”
Julia’s heart beat faster., Would
this job, too, be virtual imprison
ment—as she had suffered on the
Wood Nymph? Certainly she had
no desire to spend very many days
and nights, friendless, on a lone
ship moored out from shore. Bul
perhaps Latta was h&ving some
mild fun with her.
Fortunately it was not very
many more minutées betore there
loomed ahead of them the outlines
of a ship. It was not now fully
illuminated, except for its regula
tion lights, and to Julia it seemed
a black and forbidding hulk bear
ing down upon them. But Latta’s
man maneuvered the small boat
with the perfect of long experi
ence, and Tony Latta helped Julia
to the landing platform. In anoth
er moment she was on the desk
of his gambling ship. LT
It was not the largest ship out
of the harbor that night, but
neither was it very small. Latta
explained that he had purchased it
from a transportation company
which considered the hoat out of
date. .
“But she’s fine for my purposes,”
he said. “I got her for a. song, and
1 sold the engines for a good price,
too.” He laughed, pleased at his
own astuteness, “She don't need
engines—we tow her when we
want to change her position. But
m.stly she’s just anchored tight
and 1 got plenty of weight in her
hold and she don't roll much.”
The interior was not at all what
Julia had expected. It was more
like the interior of. a fine hotel
than of a smaller passenger vessel.
There were three large gambling
roomg with cream-colored walls
and furniture that just missed be
ing in florid taste. Most of the
chairs and settees were in bright
red leather, which seemed to please
Latta immensely—and the game
tables were all covered with green
felt, and marked for a dozen dif
ferent games .of chance. '
“But here is where you will
sing,” Latta said, and pushed open
a wide white swinging door.
Julia gasped. It was, in truth,
a minjature night club. There
were small tables, each with a blue
cloth. At one end of the room
was a space for a small orchestra,
and along one wall. was a cock
tail bar, respendent in gray wood
and indirect lighting. h
Latta smiled. “A nice setting for
my—my new ilttle jewel, eh?”
“It's- so much nicer than I ex
pected,” she said, without think
ing how her remark might sound.
“But Tony's .boat gets the best
people,” he assured her- “Your
singing will not be wasted . . .
And now I will show you your
room.” A
That, too, was lovely, but there
were some evidences of the former
occupant that Julia found a bit
gaudy.
“Adjoining it,” Latta explained
setting down her bag, “is a little
room with a comfortable cot.
Even if you decide not to stay
ahoard, you may want to rest.” He
look at his watch. “T've asked the
orchestra to come early tonight, in
case you want to run over some
of the songs. with them.”
“7'd like to,” Julia said. .
But as Latta closed the door she
was trembling in every fibre of
her slenider young body. This was
such a strange new world in which
she had chosen to make her way.
Yet there was no turning back
