ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE DOLLARS WANTED

Dear friends of the Star and the
Ocala Industrial School, we want one
hundred and twenty-five dollars for
the schools Christmas tree. This is
a little more than we asked for a
year ago, but the school now has
nearly twice as many scholars as 1t
had then, and S125 won't be anywhere
near 81 for each girl. The school had
a wonderful Christmas tree last year,
and if we could take the sunshine it
brought to the faces of the girls and
coin it into golden ten dollar pieces
it would pay for all the streets we
need in this town and eliminate for
ever one of the things we squabble
about.
The school has done well since last
Christmas. A considerable number OF
the girls have graduated and gone
back to their homes or out in the
world to fill responsible places and
live happy, useful lives. Several dis
tinguished people have been here and
inspected it and been both pleased and
surprised by it's efficiency and we
have been able to say to them proud
fully and truthfully that one reason
why the school does good work is that
when girl has been here awhile she
feels. that she is at home and when
she looks around at the Marion hills
and over toward Ocala she knows that
she is among friends, and that the
great state of Florida has a personal
interest in her welfare. It will soon
be six years since the school was
founded, and the good it has done can
be written only in the worldwide
ledger of the recording angel. How
different the history of that school
from that of many others! Ocala has
helped make it different and should
keep it that way.
We have already collected $14 OF
the $125, and hope you will chip in
rapidly with the other Sill. The
quicker the money is raised, the easier
it will be on your venerable Uncle Ben
whose number ten hoofs are easily
biistered walking around under his
unwieldy carcass.

MAY ELIMINATE
CASH FEATURES
IN BONUS BILL
[RepubIIean a. 2. Lsassd WHO

WASHINGTON, March 1-Elimi :
nation OF the cash feature'of the SOL
dierS bonus bill but under a plan
which would enable former service
men to obtain funds from banks on
adjusted service certificates imme-
diately after they were issued Is un-
der consideration by majority mem
bers of the house ways and means
committee as a possible solution of
the bonus problem.
This would make unnecessary any
heavy drain on the federal treasury
during the next two years while the
refunding OF the $500, ,000.00 short
dated debt is in progress and 1t was
said would remove the fundamental
cause of difference in congress and
between the administration and con-
gress over the bonus question.
The task Of working out the plan
was assigned today to special sub
committee which was appointed by
what was described as unanimous
consent after the majority members
had failed TO agree on any method of
financing the cash payments which
it had been planned should be spread
over a period of two and one-haf
years from next Oct. /. The sub
committee had its first meeting late
today and it is understood plans to
cali in Secretary Mellon and pos
sibly members OF the federal reserve
board for a discussion OF the whole
proposal.
Emphasizing that the suggested
plan was only in the incubation stage
Representative Longworth OF Ohio. a.
member Of the subcommittee, said II
probably would be a week or more
before the subcommittee had COM
pleted its work. Whatever program
is agreed upon must be submitted
to the other majority members for
a decision and it appeared probable
that 1T would be at least a month be-
fore whatever bill was agreed upon
would be ready for the house.
Committee members said It was not
proposed to change the vocational
training. farm and home aid and
land settlement features of the Ford
ney bill. Some of them thought.
however, that the certificate feature
would be so attractive that a great
majority of the men would elect
that option OF the bill.
Give Vets $1.25 a Day
Under the plan now contemplated,
the face value of the adjusted serv-
ice certificate would be equal to the
sum of the adjusted service pay of
the veteran Zone dollar q day for
domestic service and S1.25 a day for
foreign service, less the $50 bonus
paid at the time of discharge) in
creased by 40 per cent, plus interest
thereon for twenty years at the rate
of four and one-half per cent year,
compounded annually.
The total face value thus would
be approximately 3.3S times the
amount of cash that a veteran would
have received under the cash fea-
ture.
Immediately after the certificate
was received, the service man could
obtain from bank an amount equal
to so per cent OF the total of the
adjusted service pay. If. at the ex-
piration of three years the sum thus
plus interest had not been !
paid by the service men, the bank
could make demand on the federal |
trea asury for the amount. The gov
ernment thus would take over and
carry the loan.

JUDGE SAYS EITHER
MARY OR PLAINTIFF
DELIBERATELY LIED

NEW YORK, March i.--Federal
Judge Mack reached the conclusion
today that either Mary Pickford OF
| Mrs. Cora w. Wilkenning. who sued
| the cinema actress for $108,000. had
deliberately lied. and he left II TO
| Jury to decide which one was guilty
The Jury returned it's decision this
afternoon, but, as Judge Mack had
gone home, the verdict was sealed
and the question of veracity will not
be publicly settled until tomorrow
The lie. according to the judge
rested in the conflicting stories OF
the methods Mary used back in 1916
10 get Adolph Zukor to raise her
salary from $4,000 a week TO sl0.OV0 .
Mrs. Wrilkenning, whose business is
that OF locating jobs and better sal
aries for people who live by musing
others. claimed that it was she who
persuaded Mr.. Zukor TO fatten Mary s
income. She said the screen star
came to her and told about hearing
that Charlie Chaplin was making
81, 900 900 a year, and she thought her
curls and her pout were worth Just
as much as the comedians derby ana
shuttle or words to that effect.
According to Mrs. Wilkenning' S
story, 1t was agreed that she would
sally forth and get other producers
to bid for Mary's services which
would force Zukor to raise the ante.
and then she would get 10 per cent
commission on the new contract.
Thus she claimed s10S,000 as her
commission and extra charges, be-
cause Mary got $4,000 week
contract running for two years.
Mary, who was in the court room
today with her husband. Douglas
Fairbanks, and her mother, fatty de-
MED Mrs. Wilkenning's story her
lawyers told the jury that Mary was
such good actress that producers
came around to her with tempting
contracts and that il waS downright
silly to think she would have to run
around looking for job.
Alary's mother testified Yesterday
that Mrs. Wilkenning didn't have
thing TO do with the contract, but
wanted il signed in her office be-
cause it would lend her prestige. To-
day Mrs Wilkennings lawyer told
what he thought, abCAt Marys moth
or. and Mrs. Pickford almost cried.
But she smiled again when Mary
kissed her and told her to brace up
and show her Irish sense OF humor.'
This interview, between the plain
tiff and the OeIenudnt, SlJuNT tOOh
place or it did not take place" said
Judge Mack, addressing the jury.
"One or the other has deliberately
lied. II cannot be a mere figmept
OF the imagination.
Then he told the jury that il they
found Mary had been the one who
slipped from the path of truth. they
could award Mrs. Wilkenning any
sum up to $10S,000.
A crowd loafed all day In the cor
ridor outside the court room to catch
a glimpse of Mary and Douglas.
When the screen star departed after
the judge had charged the Jury, the
movie fans formed an unsolicited es-
cort down the stars TO the waiting
automobile. Douglas was so busy
slipping on a great coat that he al
most lost Mary in the mob of auto
graph hounds, stenoerapherS, clerks,
star gazers and unclassified mortals
who surrounded her.
wait 4 minute, dear she said.
That seemed to tickle the crowd
just as if they had been wondering
all Slong what Mary called her hus-
band.
