Ford Characterised As Head
 Of Piratical Organization

the report, ''are organizing a wonder ful propaganda in favor of the ac- ceptance of the Ford offer. They have flooded the country with letters and circulars particularly among the farmers in which they falsely repre- sent that Ford has agreed to make fertilizer at One-ilaIf its present cost
 Thousands of farmers have been hoodwinked, it is charged. The re- port states that if Ford gets the Drop- erty and their promises are kept, "a city will spring up which will make New York look like a country vfI- iage.' It looks. it says, like the most wonderful real estate speculation .'since Adam and Eve lost title to the Garden of I5den.''
 Capitol Left Out
 Wonder is expressed why the Capf- tel at Washington was not thrown in,
 Most of the document is devoted to the Ford bid. the only one really given consideration out of the num- Der made the government.
 The Ford bid. the report says, did not agree to sell fertilizer at a fixed price nor at a reduced price; did not agree to turn the property back to the government in the event of war; -ind sought government financial aid In developing practically the entire plant The 100 year lease term is in 'sen sufficient reason for the un- Qualified rejection of the offer, the report asserts.
 Congress owes something to the generations that shall foilow,'' it adds. Ut has no moral right to pro- vide by law for the giving away of rights and privileges that belong to fuAstre generations.
 Ihe power that can be deveIoped from our nayigabIe streams belongs 10 the public. No man or corporation ought to be gwen an unlimited right to the use of such power"
 NuIlifies Water Act
 senator Norris said his associate siSnatories, declare that acceptance of the Ford offer would nuIlify the water PoWer act. The financial schemes of the proposal mean that the govern ment would loan about $65 ,OOO 900 at ESo per cent. interest for 100 years, and never receive one cent of the principal back.'s
 'Ihere are many instances in his tory where kings and monarchs have given away valuable concessions be- longing to the people but there can- not be found anywhere in the history Of civilization where such monarchs have provided that in addition to giv- ing such valcuable concession tho tax payers of the country should be called upon to finance it for the bene- fit of the favored one,'' says the res port.

diamonds are better yet worth safe guardin' than the duty on them.
 They spared no pains. If they could just keep your mind fixed on the notion that you were a bold, venture some consoirator an a self-sacrif1c:n n uplifter of mankind, then you'd never think of diamonds or of smugglin'.
 Nothing like an atm osphere of danger and mystery. Pistols and bowie-knives would contribute to your keeping to the notion they want ed. So, I take it, they treated you to a little harmless hippodromin' - Clumsy or ingenious, as you choose to look at it-just to throw you off the scent
 I sat silent. choking and thinking.
 "Hippodroming? Those kisses of O1ga's hippodroming?
 I could feel the warm pressure of her fingers against my cheeks.
 'Look here." I burst out. ''I don't believe you've an atom of proof that that case contained diamonds
 True for you," he admitted "1 haven't an atom of proof of anythin' at all. What I've guessed at I've come to by a half a dozen miracles all strung on the same string I've lot only no proof, but I haven't the slightest chance now Of getting any
 I'm beat. I'm goin' to give up. If you'd say you'd identify in court any of the three men I asked about, I might have had chance. But, as it is, they have been too smart for us again. You've dealt straight with me, am I deal straight with you.''
 T don't know anythin'.I only sus- picion what I've told you. I believe I'm right, but I can't proove it. For all I can prove perhaps you were actin in a big drama of the maxim of history. Perhaps you were in dan ger. Perhaps you are yet. Perhaps you didn't smugg1e diamonds. I'm lalkin' straight with you because you were straight with me.
 'tAn' I'll be botherin' you no more. You're the first man I ever met I could tell the truth to, an the first whose word I could take as I've taken yours. I'm proud to have met you, MT. Weigh. an I'm hopin' you'll sleep better the night than I'm likely to.
 He shook hands and left me.
 After I was at home in my bed room, I sat long thinking.
 "Hippodromin'? 90

CHAPTER K


 Two million dollars worth of dia- monds?" I babbled.
 Maybe two an half!" he hissed fiercely. An perhaps, even three millions, out an out! The purest stones ever mined in South Africa. The finest brilliants ever cut in Am sterdaml The biggest gems ever smuggled into the United StatesI The heaviest haul of smugglin' ever done across our frontier since the Stars an Stripes first flewI
 'Amsterdam?' I repeated. why, the tale is absurd: If they had want ed to smuggle diamonds from Am sterdam, they'd have smuggled them direct"
 ''Smugglin' direct" he put in, ''is the way to get caught"
 Get caught?" I cried. Where's an easier place to get caught than the German frontier?''
 Don't you fool yourself he ex- pounded. You never get caught when nobody's lookin' No demand, no importation. no special watch. See 9"
 "I don't see," I said hotly. "If I wsa really unwittingly the mere tool of ordinary criminals. and not mixed up in a political venture, I don't see why a bowie-knife. sailing point first through the air out of the dark, just missed my windp:pe on the pier in New York-why I had to slug a ruff fan on the steamer going, and another on the steam coming lck; Tuffians with loaded revolvers I barely wrenched from them-to say nothing of being accused of theft on my way over''

 'I should figure it out somethin' like this.'' he said: They chose you steal the packet; they could trust you not to open it.
 An, let me tell you, it's a lot harder to find a man who can be de- pended on to resist curiosity, when he's alone by himself, than it is to md a real honest man; an they found one that-was both at once.

Drew's Hotel Closed
 Since November 1921

In a statement issued today, Tax Collector Edward A. Drew corrected an erroneous impression that has been created concerning the raid on ''DrewS' hotel. The prevailing inn precision is, he said, that the hotel formerly run by himself and his fa- ther, at the corner of Noble and Cres- cent avenues, was raided. This is not so, he states, because the hotel has been closed since November l, last, and has not been leased to anyone.
 The cafe, formerly run by his uncle, Dennis J. Drew, in East Main street has been closed since last January. A raid was made a week ago on "Drews'' hotel run by Clifford Drew who was arranged in the City court on charges of violation of the liquor laws

Hint at
 a Discrimination

Refusal of a request for a permit of the Twelfth District Democratic club to hold a carnival, by the Board of Police Commissioners, is causing much criticism by members of the club. Discrimination is hinted at by members who say that last year the board gave permits right and left to Republican orga ganizationS for carni- vals. Discuscsion of the refusal will probably come before the meeting of the club to be held tonight.
 At a recent meeting of the Police board it was voted to issue no furth CT permits or allow any carnivals or trav- cling shows within the limits of the city. The Twelfth District club want ed to bring a carnival here for the purpose of increasing it's financial standing.

 Cincinnati, or maybe in Chicago or in
 Washington. Could you identity him
 n court? ?"
 No" declared. "It was at night, -oo, and I looked away from him as
 the other man. 'I see,'' he sighed again. "I see. Well, fourth point: What did you suppose was in that packet you took and gave?"
 That's question I won't answer"
 I vowed.
 ''Then. I'll answer it for you an save you the trouble,'' he said. 'Yo ou thought it contained papers or docu- ments or the like that u'd harm some dlespots or tyrants somewhere, an help some noble conspirators or such in some down-trodden land. That's what you thought it contained. Is that SOP"
 "Yes." I admitted, "that is what I | thought
 Well" he rejoined, ''it contained | no such contents at a1l but something quite different You were no instru-
 meth for the salvation of an oppress- ed race, but a catspaw in the hands of rascals-a dupe." ''I don't relish the idea of being a dupe," I said. "nor of being a catspaw
 for rascals. Rascals, in what sense?"
 'In the plain sense of being crim- inals, like any other thieves-or swindlers, or smugglers.'' ''Smugglers I cried. What was in that cigar case?'' Before I answer that for you," he said, answer me one other question
 I know you were perfectly innocent and honest, honest and innocent as h.a Household ard thought you were engaged in nothin' to be ashamed of. but rather in business to be proud of. Now, this is my question: How much did you get out of it?'' i've no objections to telling that I'm sure,'' said. Spit it out, then" he urged. ''To begin with,' said, "I was fed and housed free for nearly three
 months. Then I obtained, cost free
 a full outfit of clothes, of toilet requi-
 sites, of travelling requisites, all of which I have yet. Then I enjoyed an
 unsprpassably delightful summer and | a wetl-arranged tour of the most in-
 teresting parts of Europe. The profit of that will be part of me for life.
 Then received two hundred and fifty dollars from the Household InteEli- gencer."
 Ou heeOn reCkOln mat Tn. he interposed. You earned that by your letters"
 'I should never have earned a cent of it." I argued, except for the free tour''
 That's so," he admitted. "If you
 see it that way, count it in, then.''
 And lastly I summed up, "I have as much more left over from what ]
 did not spend of the cash given me
 and from my letter of credit. That comes to five hundred dollars in all.'' That letter of credit" he unused 'I thought I could come at them by
 that. But thought I saw it after you turned it in. an talked with the clerk
 that issued it. there was no clue there."
