MYRA DEAN, a woman 'o> the world
Myra objects TO figuring In a divorce
case, but Barrett goes ITO
REX WARREN, a lawyer and an old
friend OF Anita and OF himself
The two men quarrel when Barrett
suggests that Warren. because oi
former love for Ansts. should helr
him to secure his freedom.
Anita sank into a chair. slowly
weighed down by increasing COM
plication. How cruel life could be!
It was not bad enough that this
wretched parting must punish the
children, John and herself, but here
was Rex Warren in II too-her girl
hood friend, the old1ine sweotbe cart
who wasn't quite assweetheart be-
cause circumstancesehad separated
them. and now her adviser. her
rock and stay. e..
A tap at the door sstartled her.

'I came back to tell you not to
DO the very thing ind you doing.
Anita-I didn't say what did to
add to your problems, but 10 help
YOU with them. I am your friend.
Perhaps shouldn't have said the
rest of It. Let It be the least of your
considerations. We're confron1ed
with the immediate present and flu

Can't we wait until he-does some
thing-takes some definite step"
you know how he feels, Anita.
Isn't that enough for you? Or shall
he play whatever tune he wants, and
make you dance to it?"
His harsh challenge whipped back
the color into her face.
IF only he and I were concerned
In this thing he'd play no tune. I'm
thinking OF the others, Rex-the
children and you and-and the en-
tire outcome OF things If"
Let's get rid Of the Ifs Have

Anita hesitated, then wearily

Warren presently hung up the re-

He is leaving tomorrow--for Eu-

FLoUNDERING ABOUT.

Just at the present time there are
those in congress who are f1ounderlng
about trying to find some way in which
they can put their hands upon the large
sum of money that is going to be re-
quired to meet the soldier bonus BILL II
it could be pulled out of the thin air
there is no question but what the bill
would go through a humtning, but II
view of the response that has been made
to the nationwide demand for the reduc-
ton of taxation and the practice of econ
omy in order to get back as soon as
possible II normal or stable conditions II
is quite natural that members Of con-
gress should be hearing from home
against any move that would mean the
substituting of mex taxes for those that
have been eliminated.
The idea of using the money received
in payment of interest on the foreign
debts for this purpose brought the rec
IGNITION of the fact that it was decided
ly uncertain and that it didn't mean es-
cane from taxation. What was taken
from such payments for a bonus would
have to be made up some other way.
The idea of providing a number OF
new teLer2l saXeS to furnish most OF th2
needed s42< o0O,Oos yearly for the first
two years has sent home to the taxpay-
ers the part that they must play in t.
The auto taxes alone would mean that
Connecticut owners would be obliged 10
pay something like two million a year
additional in addition to the other tax
increases.
TIE insurance proposition advances
by Secretary Hoover hasn't seemed t.
get warm reception and efforts are
now directed toward the possibility Of 2
bond issue to provide bonus funds. Tint
would of course mean that the country
would not only have to pay the prime
pal but the interest as well and the gov.
eminent depends upon taxation for get.
ting such funds.
The resumption of activity in behalf
of the bonus has served to direct greater
| attention to Just what is being sough
and what. it Is going to mean to tht
country than before, and the thought.
| of having taxation increased just as i
| is being reduced doesn't seem to be max
| ing a powerful appeal. Yet no sugges
! ton has as yet been advanced whicl
| doesn't mean more taxation sooner .,
| later.

STRIKING AT CRIME

We have been told that New York
hasn't had any crime wave. although
there are reports which would seem
10 indicate otherwise. but it is TO be no.
uced that there has been conference
Of the district attorneys of the different
counties of the state for the purpose of
coming 10 an understanding regarding
the best means Of bringing about a re-
suction in crime. Whether there has
been crime wave or not the district at
torneys seem to realize that there is
need for steps being taken throughout
the state for the lessening of such crime
as has been experienced.
District attorneys are in close touch
with conditions and they realize what
conditions lend encouragement TO crime.
Il Is significant therefore when the con-
Terence decided 10 urge legislation before
the legislature that would eliminate tn.
lndeterminate sentences and the commu-
istion OF sentences; TO put additional
restrictions upon the granting of pistol
permits 10 give to prosecutors the same
right Of appeal that defendants now
have and to permit them to take testi.
n1ony out Of the state; to raise the linn
It for petit larceny to 500; to make the
minimum sentence for first degree rob-
berry not less than ten years and to
make the penalty for second degree
murder imprisonment 70 life.
II is evident from this list Of recon-
nendations that the district attorneys
are fully aware Of the fact that under
present conditions too much leniency is
not only obtainable but is being extend
Cd. Instead Of serving as an example to
restrain any who might be criminal1y in

coNGREssMAN CANNON.

Somehow the impression was gained
hat Uncle Joe" Cannon was a ixturt
IN the lower house of congress and that
he would remain there for life. It s
true that he Is already an old man as
ages are figured, but it was believed that
ne discounted that fact and desired to
stick to the task which has occupied his
attention for the greater part of his Sc
years and die in the harness.
It Is a bit difficult to contemplate CON
gress without Representative Cannon as
one Of the striking figures theerin, ana
perhaps more because Il was felt that
ais desires were otherwise 1t comes with
Eurprise that it is now announced that
ne will not seek reelection at the com
pletion Of his present term.
Serving period of so years in the
iouse Of representatives. and continuous
y for all except two years. establishes
a record. and though in his s7th year
ne is by no means an inconspicuous or
Ininfuential legislator. He can be truly
said 70 be a congressman of the old
school but while he has witnessed those
who were in congress with him during
his early years disappear from political
and earthly life. and while he has had
certain fixed ideas in regard to legisla
live matters he has never become back
number
While he was brought to greater at.
iention through his service as speaker
n the house. He came to the hous4
when a different system was in vogu.
han that today and It was under such
a system that he rose to great promi
hence. Cannonism was not his persona
scheme, He grew IN with it and it &C
luired his name through his masterl,
manner Of stepping into the shoes of 9th
FRS. Those were the days when politics
vas played differently than today whar
party responsibility was taken at full
value.
But N the changes that have take;
place Cannon has continued TO play
conspicuous role He was ont Of .nos
Jaw boned Americans whose philosoph,
carried weight and II IS but natural tina
he should be highly regarded in the hall

term he viii have chance to give tn
country the benefit or his "reminiscences
covering his half century IN congress,
