CATTON'S COMMENT
gY BRUCE CATTON
per——
The House Apnmprianons Committee has approv= |
ed a hill by which Uncle Sam would spend some j
$416,000,000 on his army during the coming year.
1t accompanied this approval by asserting that the|
nation’s defenses today are “unprepared to offer re- |
sistance to any force equipped with modern offensive ‘
Technically, this may be true enough. If some
magician put the entire United States army down
at Colambus, Ohio, and the entire ¥French army
down P{ Indianapolis, Ind., the Americans probably
wouldr’j;e quite powerless to keep the French from
moving on to Columbus, The f'rench have more
men, more planes, more tanks and more guns. The
equation can give but one answer.
But practically the committee's statement is widely
misleading. For it leaves entirely out of considera
tion the most important factor of all.
Whenever we start figuring out our national de
fensa program, we ought to start by asking just
who is going to come over here and assail this un
,G!»r-e;quipped army of ours, and how they are BO
ing to get heve.
~ If the lessons of the World War mean anything
at all, they prove that there is not a nation on earth
tmy that could land and ma,mmin on our shores
_an expeditionary force capable of defeating our
army.
For we have, after all, a navy—and a pretty fair
one, as navies 80. To make invasion of America
possible, our nameless foe would first have to beat
that navy—and not only beat it, but practically an
nihilate it. There does not exist today any fleet
whose command would dream of trying to come over
to our waters and do that. The thing simply isn’t
in the book.
_ AsSume, though, that it has been done. The next
step is to establish a secure base on our coast—a
base with a big harbor and ample dock space, which
means one of our pirncipal seaport cities. Audl
while our army may not be very big, the experience
of the British at Gallipoli ought to be enough to
show that in such a venture the cards would be
stacked in our favor. ‘
Suppose the base Is geized, however; what next?
Our invader must now get his army over here.
‘Where does he get hig ships? Transporting half a
million men and all their supplies and equipment
across 8000 miles of ocean is no overnight job.
‘ransporting two or three times that number, and
‘keeping them fed, clothed and fully equipped is
next door to impossible, unless you have practically
_all of the word’'s shipping at your disposal.
It just doesn’t add up. Our army may be iy dire
straits—although considering the money we have
_gpent on it in the last decade, it ought to be fairly
pespectable—but you have to do some involved,
ifitfity, and opium-scented dreaming to figure that
_we are in any real danger of being overrun by de
signing men from beyond the seas.
"he administration seems to have swung com
mi&y around the circle in its attitude toward
polies. The President's current insistence that
the anti-trust laws be overhauled and strengthened,
hig véfusal to approve the Tydings bill to legalize
contracts to maintain prices, and the suit against
the ajluminum combine—all these things offer a sharp
contrast to the early history of the administration.

GALLSTONES FROM CATTLE
A new discovery has been announced]
from the stockyards in Chicago of the
value of gallstones found in cattle. Every
beef slaughtered in that great center is
closely scrutinized for gallstones in the
interior. For years, no attention was paid
to such things, nor did the butchers know
of the value of such stones. However, it
is different now—gallstones from beeves
sell for not less than one hundred dollars
the pound and in some instances, these
precious stones have sold as high as $375
the pound,.
The Wall Street Journal in commenting
on the new industry, has the following to
say:
“Demand from China and Japan for\
gailstones from American cattle has
reached a point where workers in slaugh-l
ter houses now are continuvously on the|
lookout for these ‘‘precious stones”. In;
Chicago’s packing house distriet, such'
stones bring approximately SIOO a pound.l
The top price received so far was $375 a
peund. These stones are highly prized byi
superstitious Orientals, who use them as
charm pieces. They fashion them into ex
pensive lockets and amulets which are
worn next to their bodies to ward off evil
spirits. It is szid that nearly every Chi
nese soldier wears a gallstone charm to
protect hiruself from the enemy. They are
also said to be uvsed for medicinal pur
poses to cure come of the many plagues
rand ailments that afflict the Orient.”
Operators of the abattoir here will, no
doubt, be on the lookout for gallstones in
all cattle that they slaughter hereafter.
These stones are worth looking for in ev
ery beef that is butchered. A few pounds
of these stones would be of more value
than a herd of cattle.
SPINACH DECLARED WORTHLESS
For years the medical fraternity has ad
vocated the eating of spinach by patients
suffering from diabetes and other troubles
where carbohydrates and meats werei
detrimental to treatment. We haven’t heen |
able to eat the popular vegetable known
as spinach, though it was contrary to the|
doctor’s advice. Now it has come to pass
that the best medical authorities advise
against the use of spinach as a vegetable
beneficial to patients afflicted with any
kind of kidney disease.
At a meeting of the Fifth District Med
ical Society, in Atlanta last wek, Dr. Bret
Ra‘ner, of the medical department of New
York University, in addressing the phy
sicians said in part: “Doctors may soon
come to giving fried chicken, French fried
potatoes and hamburger steaks to conval
escents instead of the present vogue of
broiled chicken, boiled potatoes and
broth.
“Look what happened to spinach. A
few years ago it was looked upon by the
medical world as a wonderful food, while
}:oda_v it is regarded as practically worth
ess,”
We are glad that it has been discovered
that spinach is not what it is cracked up
to be. To our way of thinking, spinach
is bad enough for well people to eat to
say nothing of those who are on a diet and
barred from all the good things that make
up a tempting menu.
WHEN BEARDS COME BACK
When men go back to the old style of
wearing whiskers on their faces, drinking
coffe from mustach-cups and keeping
mugs in barber shops, for their personal
use time will have changed and the good
old days will have returned.
Tt is predicted that within the next
decade, this condition will exist and be in
style again. Prof. Paul Nystrom, a learn
ed professor and a member of the faculty
of Columbia University, makes the follow
ing prediction:
“American men will blossom out .in
clouds of beards in a decade or two. Men's
mass tastes change more slowly than wom
en’s, but they change, nevertheless. A
new hearded age is on the way., Your
sons will be wearing heavy beards.”
| The new bearded age may be near at
|hand—nearer than the time that has been
‘predicted by the college prognosticator,
but in our belief, it will be generations be-
Ifore that custom or style comes back in
.general use, to say the least.
SOUTH INCREASES IN POPULATION
From a report recently issued by the|
federal bureau of agriculture economics,
it is stated that a third of the children
born in the United States are in the South
—that is in the thirteen original southern
states. In these states, there is one-fourth !
of the population of this country which is
proof of the growing conditions and in
creases not only in population, but in de
velopmet,
~ Since the clesing of hostilities between
the states, the South has undergone an
era of development and prosperity un
‘equalled by any other section or nation of
the world. Three score years and ten, |
lthis section of the nation was left devas
tated from the ravages of war, but our
people, in a masterful manner, commen
ced to rehabilitate that which was lost,
and to build anew an empire that bids fair!
lto become the riches in agriculture, indus
trial, commercial and educational of all
the states in the nation. So far, it has
made a good start and with tis develop
ments, increase in population, it will soon
be recognized as the most fertile field for
home-seekers and investors,

DID IT EVER
OCCUR TO ‘U’
The number of automobiles
in all towns and cities in the
United States has outgrown
free parking spaces and pro
vision sufficient to accommo
cdate motorists has become a
problem. ”:
Down in Albany the problem has{
caused the city officials much con-|
cern. They have tried every con
ceivable system of parking in or
der to provide conveniences for the
‘motorists, but to no avail. Ivery
plan that has been tried has proved
to be unsuccessful, .so now they
are trying a new scheme or plan
for parking. On certain streets, in
the business district, spaces have
been marked off with every other
space for unlimited parking and
the other spaces good for one hour
only—then the parker will be re
quired to move his ecar to some
;other place. Just how this plan
| will work out remains to be seen,
[but it may be depended that many
[ot the citizens of that place will
,rise earlier in the mornings in or
{der to be among the first to park,
Athens motorists have the
same perplexing problem to
deal with. Whether or not
they will be able to solve it,
is something to be reckoned
with,
One of the greatest troubles with
the parking space here is the in
convenienc, caused to out-of-town
shoppers. Often it is practically
impossible for them to find space
on the streets, in the husiness dis
trict, on which to park their cars,
The city officials have trieq to
find parking room on thg streets,
but the number of automobiles ap
pears to increase beyond the lim
its of available space. From pres
ent indications, it appears that the
only solution for the vexed prob
lem is the establishment of a num
ber of parking lots, convenient to
business, bug that is another prob-
Jlem—tinding the lots,

We have just received a
phone call reminding us of the
regular monthly meeting of
the mayor and council Wed

about the paving of an ap

We informed the lady that there
was no need for becoming nervous
over the project, for the reason
that the mayor and members of
the city council were ag deeply in
terested ag were the citizens of
Athens, and that the matter would
be passed up and work ordered
commenced within the nexqy few
days., This assurance brought a
hearty approval from her, just as
it will to thousands of other eciti
zens, who are interested in thia
improvement,
It is amazing the number of
people who have become inter

Yesterday: Joan attends

in honor of (ne of Athens’ pioneer
citizens and builders. The people
of Atheng are acquainted with the
location of the street and now to
tause confusion by renaming it
could not be justifieq any more
than wiping off the pages of the
history of Athens the nameg of
Bloomfield. We might as well
change the name of Athens, if it
is popular to have something new
in the history of this city. This
may be a day of fads and fash
jons, but that does not justify the
‘destructlon of history and the
abolition of markers and memori
'als for those who heiped to build
the Athens of today.
“Wie are in receipt of the fol
lowing communication from
Mr. €. D. Flanigen setting

the proposed change in name of

first came to Athens fifty-eight

day wag Robert L. Bloomfield, then
president and leading official of
the ‘Athens Manufacturing com

Athens in the forties of the last
century and in 1879 po meeting
that was concerned with city or
county affairs was closed without
obtaining his opinion concerning
the proper n=ndling of the matter
under discussion,
“He was not a poritician, never
held any political office but was
strong in his beliefs which were
far in advance of most of his con
temporaries. As an example,
within five years of the invention
by Thomag A. Edison of a practical
eleetric lamp that made electric
lighting possible on streets and in
homes, he predicted tmat in his day
every home in Athens, even the not
too well built cottages to the ne
groes would be illuminated with
the new dison electric lamps while
otherg in high places were pro
claiming the new lamps nothing
but toys without promise of any
possible useful secvice. And this
prediction practically came true.

CHAPTER IX.
Back once more in the lonely
confines of her room at the hotel,
Joan faced the end of her dreams.
Hopeless and defeated, she sat on
the narrow bed, and looked out
across the dreary roof-tops. She
could not cry; she could not even‘
rage against fate. Neither would
have helped. Probably before she
was born, it was written in the
stars that she would be condemn
ed to a life like this—barren of
hope and happiness, desolate of
reace. 'There was nothing she
could do about it; there was no
way to escape except by this con
tinual disappearance from one city
to another.
This time, however, it was
more than a disappearance from
New York. It meant a last good
by to Bob, the sacrifice of his
love and protection, the end of
hapriness. She weondered, duily,
why she kept on living at all. No
| matter how far away she traveled,
the nightmare would follow, to
torture and torment her, to terrify
anyone who might love her.
In her ears, Sybil's veice, hon
eved and soothing, still rang, and
| Joan could sense the studied sym
fpathy it would hold as she re
peated the story to Bob. But
Sybil's eyes would remain cold
through the telling of it, and in
her 'heart there would be no com
‘passion for the girl 'who loved
him. i -
Joan did not blame Sybil. Long
ago she had ceased to blame peo
ple for drawing away from her;
it was not their fault that they
could not understand. “Neither
did she feel any anger toward
Dorothy Starke. Dorothy’s only
sin had been her genuine pleasure
in seeing an old friend. She could
not have known what misery her
presence brought to light.
I, as she had noticed Joan’s
confusion, the thought did occur
to her, she had responded splen
ididly‘ 1t was Dorothy who cov
' ered up the matter of the broken
cocktail glass, insisting that she
| herself had knocked it from
}Joan‘s hand. It was Dorothy, too,
who had kept the conversation
!ga‘y and meaningless, until the
|time Joan found courage to tear
| herself away.
Sybil had been delighted tol
learn that Dorothy had known
Joan in the past. There was no'
end to the questions she asked.
They had lived in fieattle?‘
Strange, we thought Joan camef
from Chicago . . « In school tu-‘
gether? Kastman High school?
How very, very interesting , . .|
To think you had to find each
other right here in New York,
after so many years . . . how
many years?
After a while, Dorothy changed
the topic. Perhaps she grew tired
of Sybil's persistent curiosity. But
Sybil could follow a point relent
lessly and cleverly. And for some
unfathomable reason, Joan real
ized now, she was intent on dis
covering every detail in her life.
Perhaps Mr. Hendry had asked
her to do that, although that did
not seem like him. He had taken
her into his offices without even
inquiring about references. He
had never probed into her private
affaire. H®ven if he were more in
terested now that Bob and she
were to be married, Joan did not
believe that he would have taken
this curfous method of learning
more about her. When Mr. Hen
dry wanted to know something,
he inquired directly and frankly.
He did not beat about the bush
:: Sybil's charming, subtle sash-
N ' : S
She recalled Sybil's clever man
euver to detain Dorothy after the
others had left. Dorothy had fol
lowed Joan upstairs, suggesting
that they walk to the station to
gether. But downstairs, Sybil
sought out Dorothy’s cousin.
“Won't you and Dorothy wait just
a. moment, Barbara?’ she heard
her suggest. “I have a little gift
1 want you to enjoy in Florida ...
Just a minute after the others
leave?”
. Joan could picture her, inquir
ing into details, drawing Dorothy
\out delicately, bit by bit, piecing
{facts together, guessing, confirm
ing . . . By this time, she knew
everything —the ‘whole horrible
story.
“My reprieve is up,” Joan
the ‘“set of fast trans-Atlantic
thought. “I’'ve had two years . . .
!Two rerfect years.”
| She got up, walked to the win
ldow, and pulled down the shade.
| perhaps it was better, getting
{it all over quickly like this. At
| least she was spared the suspense
| of wondering, and eventually, the
i agony of a last parting with Bob.
!It was easier now, while he was
far away. o~
She would write him a note andl
exrlain . . . No, she coull not
do that. She ceculd never explain
in a way that he would under-l
stand . .. Let him hear the story{
from Sybil. He would, anyway.
She would merely say goodby. l
She must write to Mr. Hendry, !
too. Somehow, she hated doing’
that more than anything. He|
would think she was a coward for|
not coming and telling him her
self. “I like a person who cun]
stand up and face an issue,” h‘d
always said. “These alibis and |
excuses .~ .. Bah!” }
Yet what good would it do to
stand up and face this issue? Mr.
Hendry would. be kiad, as so
‘many other men had been kind to
her. As Dorothy Starke’s father
‘had been kind. In the end, how
ever, their reaction was the same.
It was all unfortunate, terribly
unfortunate. But what could they
do about it? Her father had mur
dered a man . . . at least, the,
courts had decided -that he had.
The stigma was on her, too. Noth
ing would ‘wash it away. Noth
ing. . |
No matter how straight and
true she lived her life, the world
would say, nevertheless: “Her
father killed a man. It's in her
bloed, too, to kill.”
Bob would love her, despite
| whatever the world said. She
knew that. She knew that, as she
knew the sun would rise again on
the morrow. He would stand by
her side against the world. But
deep within his own heart, the
words would ring: “Her father
killed a man. It's in her bleod,
too, to kill.” If they had children,
he would watch them too, with
suspicion and fear, wondering if
the curse had been handed down
to them.
No, she coud not ask Bobh to
llive through that shadow.
She took her bags from the
closet; and slowly began empty
ing bureau drawers. She did not
have much to pack. Her mother
and she had never acquired the
habit of accumulating things.
‘Where would she go this time?
Boston? Somehow she felt afraid
of Boston. Its people were inter
ested in families and backgrounds;
they would ask questions, tco.
Philadelphia ? Philadelphia 'was
the city of Friends. Surely there
would be a place for her among
them.
With a sudden shrillness, the
telephone on her wall rang, and
its echo jangled through the room,
filling her mind with new dread.
She stood still in the center of
the room, her arms filled with
clothes she had just taken from
the closet. Who? would it be?
Who could it be, but Sybil? And
now she did not want to talk to
Sybil. She did not want to ex
plan, to plead with her for un
derstanding. She could not . feel

impatiently for the call she hyy

Twenty minutes later, her hp.

like to get something definite he

“0. K. How's the old man?”’
“Just fine. I've told him about
your srlendid new position—sell

\‘l know you can talk him up to a
new roadster when you get back.”
Philip chuckled. “Good “work,
Syb. I'll write him a note’ from
