ren's shouts were lost in the dis
tance.
Ma, seemingly exhausted with her
attempt to understand it all, lean
ed back against the soft cushions
of the motor and closed her eyes.
She was so quiet that sudden fear
clutched Starmount' g heart. Was
she dead3
Mary relieved his mind Of this
idea as she asked: 'Oh, Ma, isn't
it lovely9 He is taking us just be-
cause l tainted down at Cohen's
and he felt sorry for me. When /
told him 1 couldn't go and take a
rest and love his dog without you
he said that he would take you,
too"
The woman opened her eyes wear
lily and with sudden surprise Star
mount realized that those eyes, al
though faded and worn and utterly
sad, were the same warm, brown
color as those of the girl leaning
against his shoulder.
He found himself still holding the
little, convulsive hand Of Mary as
he pointed out the interesting places
along the way. Suddenly he be
came aware that neither of his
guests was listening. The mother,
lulled by the cooling air, had gone
to sleep and Mary was looking at
him as though a question on her
lips must be voiced Immediately.
"What is it7 What is it, dear
child9"
"Where's your Ma, my LordR l bet
she is just waiting for you to come
and we've made you late"
81 never knew my mother, Mary.
She died when l was born"
"Any brothers and sistersF'
81 never had any
Haven't you got anyone to love

81 haven't anyone-Not even a
wife"
I'm glad of that, cause I'm al
most sure that a wife wouldn't like
so many dropping in to supper un-
expected-like."
Starmount laughed so loudly that
he woke up Mary's mother. She
smiled as she caught glimpse of
the sea through the trees.
AS they turned into the extern
sive grounds Starmount noted with
surprise a number of automobiles
lining the driveway And he swore
under his breath, as he caught a
view of the broad terrace on which
an animated, laughing group of men
and women in fantastic dress had
gathered to greet him.

The girls personality pleased him
immensely. He was growing eager

started upon.
There was shuffffng step OF

out of the darkened doorway, {

eyes alight.

Eddie drew away from Malcolm

hand into his and whispered: :"

Officer Mulcahy brought out tn

In the appropriations estimates being
prepared by the Budget Bureau the pro-
hibition enforcement service is to re-
ceive s1O,OOO,OOO the same as for the
current year. OF this S750,0oo is ror
enforcement of the Harrison narcotics
law.
The economy program is not to apply
to prohibition enforcement, although the
total saving for the Government must
be about S6OO,OOOOOO. No other service
Is likely to escape the cut necessary
under President Harding's policy of
keeping the expenditures estimates
within the revenues estimates Of $685.

Prohibition Commissioner Haynes has
informed Gen. Lord, director of the
budget. that his service cannot get along
without $40, 100000 and the dry strength
in Congress is so strong that budget
officials accept this as correct.
Indications are that the submission
of this estimate will be the signal in
Congress for a renewed fight on the
prohibition service in line with that
waged from time to time by Reprosen-
tative Hill (Md.), and other vets who
want Mr.. Haynes ousted
The vets will try TO have the S10,-
600, 900 stricken from the appropriation
bill and while there is no chance of
winning the proposal will serve as an
70 att n w
be the opening gun in what the vets
hope will lead 10 modification of the
Volstead law to allow the sale OF light
wines and beer.
Representative Hill believes the vets
will be I'm a better position after cleo
ton, because he thinks they will have
demonstrated where prohibition Is an
issue that people are opposed to the
law and the enforcement methods.
While the wet members who will be
elected in November--and it is taken
for granted the vets will make gains
will not take their seats until next
March. the results will be offered as an
indication of public sentiment on which
drive against the appropriation may
be directed.
The vets will demand that the prohi-
bition enforcement service should come
under the economy program as well as
other branches Of the Government. They
will charge II is ridiculous TO suppose
that the prohibition service is effectively
enforcing the law and they will insist
that the country would be as well off Il
II did not exist.
An effort also will be made again to
have tho service transferred to the De-
partment of Justice. This transfer is
provided for in the reorganization pro-
gram which President Harding will pre-
sent to Congress at the short session.
This move is contemplated for economy
Is we'll as more effective administration
1t is opposed by the drys, who see in the
transfer of the service from the Treas
ury the loss of influence they now exert.

row by Col. A. A. Sprague, head OF the

criticizes the Government In caustic
language.
The story of hospital construction by
the Government declares the report,
Judging by actual results. is a tragedy

nounces individual Representatives and
Senators for what it terms "their en-
deavors to locate hospitals where they
cannot be used, and to keep hospitals
where tflty are not needed, ana TO secure
employment for their friends"
Col. G. K. Forbes. head of the Vet
Grams Bureau, is here, and his presence
has brought the charge from William

vention delegation and "a candidate for
national commander to succeed Hanford
MacNider that Col. Forbes was here
TO influence the convention at the in
stance of the Republican Administration
in Washington. This was sharply denied
by Col. Forbes. who said he was here
with staff of specialists to cooperate
with the legion on problems of disabled
men.
Committee meetings are being held
while the rank and file of the veterans
pour in from all parts of the country.
There are many less men wearing their
uniforms than at previous conventions.
Another noticeable feature is the
