CATTON'S COMMENT
BY BRUCE GATTON‘_,W___W“ .
—A-———’——"""—"“—"——%"‘“‘""‘"“"""W“ Sm————
It begins to look as if the American oh-(-tur;u.”:
were about to treat itself to the spectacle of a
presidential campaign in which the principal isfiue|
is ignored by the common consent of everyone in-l
volved.
To get a parallel, you would have to imagine the I
campaign of 1860 fought out without a single men
tion of the issue of chattel slavery.
Today's principal issue, of course, is unemploy~
ment. 4
You hear precious little about it in the prelimi
nary ‘skirmishing. Instead, you get fine words about
a more abundant life, a balanced budget, inflation,
security, the road to Moscow and a tolerably well
rounded whole. And while these things are inter
esting they do no go to the root of nation’s most
tremndous problem. e
No one knowg exactly how many unemployed peo
ple there are in America today. The best esti
mates seem to agree that the total is at least 10,-‘
000,000, This, it is true, is a drop of some four or
five milliens from the depression’s worst; neverthe
less, it represents a continuing, unsolved problem
which is nothing less than appalling. I
Here is why it is appalling. Not only does our
country contain more people than live in Greater
New York who are unable to support themselves;
there is every reason to believe that when our in
dustrial machine gets back to normal, the vast ma
jority of these people still will be without work. ‘
We have reduced the depression’s peak in unem
ployment only by about one-third; but we have
gone probably three-quarters of the way in over-{
coming the slump in production.' And, unless our
progress through the remaining quarter cuts down
unemployment at an infinitely greater rate thanl
did the progress through the first three-quarters,
it is as certain as anything can be that even whon‘
we are producing on the old pre-depression scale
again, our unemployed will still number well in ex
cess of 5,000,000,
In the face of this problem, all other problems
of the day look small. We simply cannot go on
indefinitely with that load of jobless men on our
backs. We can’t balance our budget until we can
cut relief expenditures until the people who are on
relief go back to work. Unemploymnt ig the key
log in the whole jam.
But would you realize it to listen lo the cam
paign talk? You would hardly know that we had
any unemployment any more, From neither side
has there come any sign that our dominant politi
cians are disposed to tackle the issue fearlessly, Wt
get fine word about every other conceivable issue,
but next to none about unemploymnt,
That, perhaps, is the most encouraging sign of
the day. This problem won't be solved unless wea
give it our best thought. And how are we to do
that, if in the presidential campaign it is ignorved
entirely ?

Intelligent railroad traffic men understand that
the best way to attack the problem of lost business
is te render such good service that the business
couldn’'t afford to stay lost.
The Illinois Central system recently announced
free pick-up and delivery freight service; and a
whole group of Mississippi valley and southwestern
lines is preparing to follow suit.
: The Chicago Belt Railway also has gone in for
this form of service, with the result that Chicago
industry now has virtually free trucking service
to and from outgoing freight stations on all traffic.
Steps such as these can be counted on to restore
to the railroads much of the business thev have

of muonizing the outfits that give them the |.,,;L
service.
The English speaking world hag long known ths
Frince of Wales as a likeable young man who had
an old-fashioned princely fondness for having a

his good times from interfering with the perfor

A REMINDER OF THE WEATHER
There is a very old saying that “It’s
an ill wind that blows nobody any good”,
but with rivers overflowing, streets flood
ed, houses leaking, pipes bursting, base
ments filled with water, the coal giving
out and the many other hardships that
people zll over the country are experies.
cing, it makes one peer hard and long to
see how old mother nature will even up
things. The spring and summer will bring
garden problems of insects in the homes,
ents, roaches, flies, mosquitoes and other
pests, but with a richer soil from go much
snow, sleet and freezes, perhaps there
will, =t lerst, be something to be thankful
for ~nd thet brings to mind that we can

than man.
SAFETY METHODS TAUGHT
IN SCHOOLS
| In many of the schools of the country,
safety conrses have been adopted and the
children tought the importance of avoid
ing accidents when on the streets and
highways. The results from such courses
in the schools have proved successful.in
the way of reducing casualties and fatali
tics. The minds of the young boys and
girls are receptive to such teachings and
the impression made upon their minds is
lasting. Boys and girls of the elementary
‘school age are eager to learn of the
danger of automobiles, especially autos
‘I driven by drunken or careless drivers. The
Educational Division of the National Saf
ety Council, have achieved much notoriety
in its work of compiling the number of
accidents, the causes and preventatives.
In endorsing the methods of safety, now
being taught in many of the schools of
the nation, the National Safety Council
has the following to say of the advance
ment of this all important study: ‘
“First, the teaching of safety in actual
situations where the need for it is appar
ent, Second, the injection of the subject
matter of safety into the regular subjects
of the curriculum. This provides oppor
tunity for children to follow interests
which lead into the more general aspects
of safety, thereby greatly adding to their
fund of information. Third, the organi
zation of extra-curricular activities such
as junior safety councils, schoolboy patrols‘
and the safety clubs. These activities pre-I
sent an opportunity for the child to apply
his knowledge to the benefit of others,
thus assuring definite civie responsibili
ties.”
1f all the public schools systems of the
country would install a course’ for teach
ing safety, the number of accidents would
soon be reduced to a minimum. It is esti
mated that since 1922 accidental deaths
of children have decreased in every way
except in traffic. With a thorough sys
tem of safety education taught in all the
schools, it is believed that thousands of
lives of children could be saved from traf
fie accidents,
The suggestion as offered by the Na
tional Safety Council is worthy of the con
sideration and adoption by the school
boards throughout the nation,
A SPLENDID PLATFORM
When the Progressive Farmer and
Southern Ruralist consolidated in 1930, a
platform which the Progressive Farmer
wes to stend on and advocate contained
ten planks, every one of them sound, con
servative and safe. The platform has
been followed religiously and today the‘
Progressive Farmer is one of the leading
and ranking agriculture magazines of this
country. It is filled with not only sound’
advice, in ably written feature articles,
but its editorials contain much informa
tion of potential value to the farmers of
this country .
The platform as adopted reads:
“1. Richer lands for every farm.
“9 A home of beauty, comfort and
convenience for every family.
3 A “Blue Ribbon Farm Family” in
every home,
“4. Modern equipment for every work-
er,
«5. Club work and vocational training
for every child.
“g. Fvery crop from purebred seed;
every animal from a purebred sire.
“7. Support of farm organizations, farm
and home agents, and cooperative market
ing by every family.
“g " “RKquality for Agriculture” in every
form of legislation, taxation, and educa
tion,
«g “Full gardens, corncribs, smoke
houses, and feed barns. to insure .a good
living at home plus at least two money
crops and an important cash income from
cows, hogs, or hens” as the business policy
of every farmer. |
“10. A love of the country community,
of church and school and Sunday school.
of country things and country sports and
recreations, of books and music and art,
to enrich and ennoble life for every indi
vidual.”
Every feature of modern living condi
tions is contained in the foregoing. The
agricultural interests is the backbone of
the nation and the producer of prosperity.
The platform of the Progressive Farmer,
if followed by the farmers, will bring to
them settled conditions and permanent
independence—their homes free from
mortgages; their land fertile and ter
raced, protecting it from the flow of
water, and settling the erosion. In fact,
it is a perfect program that will bring
happiness and prosperity to every farmer.

Julia Craig, secretary to
George Woodford, lawyer, 1s
ambitious to become a night
club singer. Because of this
she quarrels with Peter Kemp,
young lawyer who is in love
with her.
Julia shares an apartment
with Amy Sanders.
Woodford gives a Yyacht
party and asks Julia to come
as a singer. Others in the
party include Cintra Lee, dan
cer; Mrs. Joseph, widow;
Hugo Nash and Royal Nesbitt.
They go to Evergreen llsland,
where qudford has a lodge.
There Julia meets Tom Payson,
camping nearby. Woodford,
Nash and Nesbitt go hunting
and Nesbitt is injured. The
party leaves immediately to get
him to a doctor.
Julia gets a job singing on
Tony Latta’s gambling ship.
Later she is hired as the fea
tured singer in Smith Gar
land’s new night club. On
the opening night she learns
Payson is backing the club.
Nesbitt’'s dead body is found.
Police question Juiia and she
is held as a material witness.
Payson secures her release on
bail and Petéer Kemp offers to
defend her.
Peter and Julia go to Wood- I
ford’s home. .Bluffing, Peter
tells Woodford he has been
through his private files, has
secured incriminating evidence
against him. Peter says, “l
want you to stop shielding the
murderer of Nesbitt. Or did
you do it yourseif?” ;
NOW| GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXV
“Those papers,” Woodford fal
tered. “If—if 1 tell you about
Nesbitt will you see that I get
them back?” 4
“Yes,” Kemp answered. “And
if yvou don't I'll see they go to the
prosecuting attorney.”
Woodford sat down weakly in
the hall chair. Perspiration lay
damply in the folds of his face.
“It wasn't that I wanted to shield
a murder. But I tried to keep it
quiet on account of—of ‘Nesbitt's
parents, and—and certain business
connections he had.”
“I don’t care about that” said
Kemp quickly. *I want to hear
what you know about his death.”
Woodford raised his eyes to
meet the grim, determined face of
Kemp. It was .« . & Mrs. Jo
seph,” he said at last. “She was
insanely in love with him, and she
knew he planned to marry Cin
tra Lee.”
“Where is she now? Do you
know ?" .
Woodford nodded. “She's at
the Brookfield under the name of
Leah Sorenson.”
Kemp waited to hear no miore.
Slipping one arm around Julia’s
waist, he hurried her from the
apartment and down to his car at
the curb. Julia saw that he was
trembling violently. She too was
weak from those few nioments in
Woodford's hallway.
“W-when were you in Wood
ford’s office?” she asked, 'as
Kemp shoved the car into gear.
[ wasn't. It was pure bluff--
but it worked. I've always Hus
pected Woodford of those cases 1
mentioned, and a lot more, too.”
“““h.\'?" R
“Because ordinary fees wouldn't
account for the fabulous sums he's
always spent.” He brought the
car to a careening stop before a
drug store. “T'll be right back™
he told Julia, and ran inside the
store. Through the wide doors
she saw him go into the teiephone
booth and guessed that he was
sending the police to Mrs. Jo
‘seph’s apartment.
' “I thought it wouldn't hurt. te
l_hu the police -in on this,”-he
told Julia, resuming his place be
hind the wheel. “We'll go ahead
—there isn't a moment to lose
Woodford may have already tele
phoned her that we're coming. If
we don’t find her—and Woodford
gets to hig office and discovers 1
was bluffing—we’re lost.”
Kemp's car literally hurtled
through the traffic, ignoring stop
lights and miissing disaster by
inches in almost every block. “Of
course no police would stop us,”’
Peter said through clenched teeth,
“when we could use them!” ;
Julia held to the seat with both
hands, too frightened to say any
thing. She was relieved when. she
saw, a few biocks up the avenue,
the tall lighted sign which marked
the Brookfield. Whether eor mnot
Peter saw it, his foot did not re
lease its pressure on the accele
rator: They were almost abreast
of the place before he jammed on
the btrakes.
UPEEat T
‘With Julia’s involuntary scream
the car skidded in a vicious half
circle, came te a sickening stop
against another car parked i 1
front of the Brookfield.
“Are you hurt, Julia?”
She shook her head vaguely.
“J-just scared, I think.”
“Come on then!” He was al
ready out of the car, oblivious of
the quickly gathering crowd and
the shout of the doorman in front
of the Brookfield. Inte the lobby
they both ran, and Peter had
hardly reached the desk when he
cried out to the startled clerk,
“What's the number of Leah Sor
enson’'s room?” There was th
slightest hint of hesitation on the
clerk’'s face, and Peter added,
“I'm from police headquarters
What is it?”
Tt--It's 578.”
Sensing excitement, the elevator
boy was ready and eager, lifting
them to the fifth floor at top
speed, then pointing to a door
almost direetly in front of the ele
vator's entrance.
Kemp knocked loudly. There
wasg no answer—and he tried the
door. It swung open easily to his
touch, revealing a room Wwhich
looked as if it had been visited
by a hurricane. The drawers of
the bureau were open and askew.
A woman's clothing was scattered
over the bed and floor.
Julia’s heart sank as she heard
Peter say, “We're too late!”
From the street below came the
whine of a police car signal.
“Come on,” Peter said.- “You can
give them a description of her and
they can try the railroad station®
and the airport — but I'm afraid
we're sunk, Julia.”
“But Woodford can tell the
police what he told us.”
Peter shook his head. “He can
—but he won't. You can bet he
went to his office right away to
se ejust what I'd found out. By
now he knows I've found out
nothing at all about him.” :
When Julia had described Mrs.
Joseph for the skeptical police,
she and Peter pushed their way
through the crowd and escaped
into a taxicab. They sat wearily
back against the cushions, both
silent until the driver turned in
exasperation and asked, “Where
the
Kemp looked at Julia. “I guess
there's no place to go but home,
is there?” He gave the address
g’s Julia’s apartment to the driver.
Then he said quietly, half to him
self, “I wish it were home.”
«“What do you mean, Peter?”
«] mean I'd like to be able to
think of where you live as—as
home.”
She smiled ruefully. “That
apartment seems less like home
than anything -1 - can think of,
Peter.” -
“I'll get you out of this
some way,” said Kemp suddenly.
“And when I do I—l want you
0 stay out of §t. | megn . ,
He stopped, helpless.
‘1 know what you mean. |
think Amy said it once.”
Peter looked at her oddly.
“What was it she said?”
“She said,” Julia’s voice was
dreamy, “she said some day I'd
fall for a little cottage and—and
Jove.”
“That'ss what' @ mean!” He
looked at -her suddenly, -hys eyes
unbelieving - “Julia, after—after
alf the times I've tried to convince
you of it, have you convinced your
self of it now?”
“I—l don’t know, Peter. I'm
so . . . confused now. Everything
is in a whirl and all I know is
that I want gquiet and—and some
body who wants to look out for
me, always.” :
Whatever Kemp might save said
was interrupted by the taxi driv
er's loud, “Here we are, sir.”
But they did not go up to Julia's
apartment, for the clerk inter
cepted them with an urgent mes
sage from Amy. “Miss Sanders has
telephoned several times,” the
clerk said. “She wants you to
comie to the shop, and she said
to bring Mr. Kemp with you. It
seemed to be urgent.”
“It’s after 6,” Julia told Peter in
surprise. “What can Amy be do
ing at the shop—and what does
she want with us?”
“Let’s find out,” Kemp answer
ed. “Quick! That cab is still out
side.”
When they reached the darken
ed gown shop they found Amy
standing behind the front door,
her face pale with fright. Seeing
Kemp and Julia she quickly un
bolted the door from the inside
and let them ijn.
“I've been trying to reach you
for hours!”
“What's wrong, Amy?"
“I—l don't know whether T've
been a fool or—or not. But it's too
late now.” She looked at Kemp.
“]—l've got a woman locked in
one of the fitting rooms!”
Both were speechless at this
confession, and Amy went nerv
ously on: “She came in just be
fore the shop closed and I tolé
Miss Lamont I'd stay and wait on
her. She—she was nervous andlln
an awful hurry. She wanted a
complete new outfit and she was
going to give the clothes she had
on to me.”
“But who is she, Amy?’ asked
Kemp. :
“I—oh, you're going to think I'm
crazy, and I'm afraid I've got my
self in an awful mess.”
“Amy, will you stop babbling
and tell us?”
“l think she's Mrs. Joseph—the
widow who was on the vacht with
yvou, Julia. Anyway, she dropped
her card case and they were all
Mrs. Joseph’s cards. But she said
her name was Duffield. and ¢he
was in an awful hwry, and I
had a hunch that—"
“And what a hunch, Amy!”
Kemp embraced her so hard that
he left Amy breathless. “Where's
the 'phone?” .
It was at luncheon the next day
that Julia said. “You kissed Amy
last night; Peter.”
“She deserved it,” Peter laughed
“if you could call it a break.”
“I could,” said Julia.
Peter said he would remember
that. And when they had driven
out into the country he did re
member it, too. “I'm going to ask
you again, Julia. tm you marry
me?”
“What about the dark girl I saw
yvou with in the White Club?”
Peter grinned. “She was the
daughter of a client. Will you
marry me, Julia?’ He drew her
closer, “I'm. opening my own of-

Only ten years ago when
“Double Door” was one of the
most popular plays of the Broad
way season, it was hailed by the
New York press as ‘“‘a melodrama
warranted to excoriate the. nerves
and send agreeable shivers up the
spine.”
Soon after it opened the pub
lic as well as the press sensed
‘the analogy between the play
and the legend surrounding an old
New York family whose fortune
was in litigation and surrounded
with mystery. From the story
of this aristocratic family, Eliza
beth McFadden is supposed to
have woven the melodrama.
For many years the Wendel
mansion, dour retreat of two
aged spinsters and a dog, stood in
all its foreboding majesty on
Fifth avenue. Less than two years
ago the venerable four-story struc
ture was removed for the con
struction of a modern Kress sky
scraper. Amidst the Victorian fur
nishings of the Wendel home!
scenes of “Deuble Door” are rep-f
resentde as having occurred.
Victoria Van Bret well past heriu. o«
fifties struggles intensely to con
trol the every act of her sister and
half-brother, at the same time
wielding dominion over the Van
Bret multi-millions. With every
movement that of a born aristo
crat she commits her numerous
atrocities. in the spirit of a true
Van Bret.
Describing the power which
Elizabeth McFadden holds over
the theater-goer in “Double Door’
the New York HKvening Post de
clared, “It forces an audience to
lose its detachment, to become a
part of it, and, out of sheer ner
vousness, to applaud its hero and
hate its villain. It makes you
writhe and twist in suspense.”
Rehearsals have been underway
now for almost two weeks under
Mr. Crouse’s direction., Members
of the productions and properties
aepartments of the theater are be
ginning work shortly on the set
tings for the play.
