toward them.

the old man grumbled. "She may be

Barry rose and the old man
cackled as he extended his hand.

You were never more welcome than
at this moment!"

Barry replied steadily.
All the color vanished from his
companions face and the little car
swerved as she gripped the wheel.
"Irene!" she gasped. "Oh, don't
remind me of her! Do you know the
whole wretched story, Mr.. Barry?"
"All except the details of your
friendship with her and what you

Yes. She was fascinating. I'll

CAUTIOUSLY enough, Irene did. and
that makes what happened all the
worse. She was brilliant and differ

delicate little Irene was like a dull,
gray moth to most people,"
And you never heard that she
had any relatives in Wheatfield or
elsewhere?" Barry asked.

Well, about seven years after

SUBSIDY BILL FACES
DEFEAT !. IN SENATE
Democrats and Insurgents Join
to Beat 1t by Vote or Delay;
Harding Sees Danger.

Washington.-The ship subsidy bill,
President Harding's pet measure, IS
drifting on the rocks in the Senate.
A combination of Democrats and lu-
surgent Republicans is determined to
defeat it either by a roll call or pro-
longed debate. The President thinks
IL the measure can be brought to
roll call it will win, but admits the
rules of the Senate are in the way.
The President denounced "the MI
nority" filibuster. He said it was un-
statesmanlike. The danger in the
inside comes from the insurgent Re-
publicans led by Senator La Toilette
(Wis.), who can prevent a vote.
Tho Democrats are ready to speak
and work against the subsidy bill, but
have said they would not conduct a
fiilibuster. On the other hand, Sena-
tors Borah and La Toilette have
served notice it cannot pass this ses-
sion. --z
Two barriers, apparently insur-
mountable, face supporters of the bill
in the Senate. They admit the in
surgents have power to prevent the
question from coming to vote, and
they make no secret of their intention
to take advantage of the easiest plan
to kill the measure" Opponents OF
this legislation have been much en-
couraged by the success of the filibuS-
ter against the Dyer anti lynching
bill, and all the tricks resorted to by
the Democrats in fighting that meas
ure will be used.
Again since the election Senate
leaders admit that the trend in the
Senate is against the measure. In
many of the states the subsidy was
an issue, and several Senators here
tofore committed in favor of the bill
have withdrawn their support. Sena-
tor France (Md.) is in that class.
