NEWBERRY QUITS
AS U. S. SENATOR
Michigan Man Removes Himself
;. -; as Political Issue. &c.,
ANTICIPATES CUSTER MOVE
Gives Defeat of Townsend, His Col
league, at Recent Election as His
Reason-Ciaims He is indicated.

Washington, Nov Ex-senator Tru-
man HI. Newberry, of Michigan, whose
right to a place in the senate has been
subject of long and bitter contrO-
versy, has submitted his resignation,
with a request that it become effec-
tive Immediately.
In letter to Governor Gfoesbeck,
made public here, Newberry said he
had been impelled to retire voluntarily
because of the defeat of his Republi-
can colleague, Senator Townsend, in
the election Of November I.
The turn of events, he said, would
make it futile for hiin to attempt
to continue mis- public service, since
he continually would he "hampered
by partisan political persecution
Reviewing the outstanding features
of the controversy which grew out Of
his election four years ago over Henry
Ford, his Democratic opponent, he
declared his right to a seat in the
senate had been fully confirmed He
added that if in the future there
seemed to be opportunities for public
service he would not hesitate to offer
himself to his state and country.
The resignation brings to an end
fight which already has made politi-
cal history and which, appeared, would
be resumed early in the session OF
congress. Convicted in Michigan of
conspiracy 10 violate election laws,
Newberry appealed to the supreme
court, which declared constitutional
| the statute under which he was &C.
| cused. The senate itself, after long
Investigation. finally confirmed his
title % seat by margin OF tive
| votes. In the campaign just closed the
| case was an issue in many states.
A COPY of the letter of resignation
| was delivered to Vice President Coo
Iidge by Walter Dorsey, NewberrE's
| secretary. Newberry himself is at
his home in Detroit. The letter to
the governor, dated November Is, was
as follows:
81 tender herewith my resignation
as United States senator from Michl-
gan, to take immediate effect.
II am impelled to take this action
because. at the recent election, not
withstanding his long and faithful
public service and his strict adherence
to the basic principles of constructive
Republicanism, which / hold in COM
bmon with him, Senator Townsend was
Pdefeated. While this failure to re-
elect him may have been brought
about, in part, by over four years OF
continuous propaganda IF misrepresen-
tation and untruth, a rair analysis OF
the vote in Michigan and other states,
where friends and political enemies
alike have suffered defeat, will demon
strate that general feeling of unrest
was mainly responsible therefor.
| This situation renders futile fur
lther service by me in the United
States senate, where l have consist
emily supported the progressive poll
cies of President Hardings admins
tration. My work there has been, and
would continue to be, hampered by
partisan political persecution, and l
therefore, cheerfully return by COM
mission to the people from whom
received it.

The eyes Of Robert Fairchild mar

into his heart. But his voice, when he
spoke. was slow and suppressed.

CHAPTER VI,

There was no specific reason why
Robert Fairchild should follow Mau-
rice Rodaine and the young woman
who had been described to him as the
daughter of Judge Richmond, who
ever he might be. Resentment was in
his heart-resentment that the family
of Rodaine should be connected in
some way with the piquant, mysteri-
GUS little person he had helped out of
predicament on the Denver road the
day before. And, to his chagrin, the
very fact that there was connection
added more sinister note to the es-
capade Of the exploded tire and the
pursuing sheriff; as he walked along,
his gaze far ahead, Fairchild found
himself wondering whether there
could be more than mere coincidence
in it all, whether she was part of
the ROdaine schemes and the Rodaine
trickery, whether
But he ceased his wondering to turn
sharply into nearby drug store,
there absently to give an order at the
soda fountain and stand watching the
pair who had stopped just in front
of him on the corner. She was the
same girl; there could be no doubt of
that, and he ragged inwardly as she
chatted and chaffed with the man who
looked down upon her with smiling
air Of proprietorship which instilled
instant rebellion in Fairchild's heart.
Nor did he know the reason for that,
either.
After moment they parted, and
Fairchild gulped at his fountain drink.
She had hesitated, then with a quick
decision turned straight into the drug
store.
"Buy ticket, Mr.. McCauley?" she
asked of the man behind the counter.
"I've sold twenty already, this morn
ing. Only five more, and my works
over. Please take the five, won't you?
Then I'll be through"
'1'll be darned if will, 'Nita!" Nc
Cauley backed against shelf case in
mock self-defense. "Every time you've
got anything you want to get rid Of,
you come in here and shove it off on
me. There's only four in my family
and fours all I'm going to take" He
tossed four silver dollars on the show
case and took the tickets. The girl
demurred.
'But how about the fifth one? I've
got to sell that too"
"Well, sell it to him!" And Fair
child, looking into the soda-fountain
mirror; saw himself indicated as the
druggist started toward the prescrip-
tion case.
There was a moment of awkward ST.
lence as Fairchild gazed intently into
his soda glass. then with feeling of
queer excitement, set it on the marble
counter and turned. Anita Richmond
was approaching-in stranger-like
manner-a ticket of some sort held
before her.
"Pardon me-" she began, 'but would
you care to buy ticket to the Old
Times dance? It's sort of munich
