I'm awfu.ly glad Paula has gone

erything good that life might bring 10
her.
| suppose according 10 our grand
mothers l should despise poor little
Paula. but cOntrarily | only despise
myself. Will we ever get this sex
idea. as it should be. on a single
standard?
The only sin that Paula Perier ever
committed was in loving me too much.

prunes might criticize her greatly. |
only feel that l should ask her forgive

Isn't it strange. sgd, that I am
taking in my arms every dav child
Of unknown parentagc and finding
that child is growink very closely
into nv heart. while nv own child !
probably will never look uron.
No. sgd. | do not think | could be
big enough to bring my own child into

When I think of it now. I think
the Fatrs have been pretty good 10
me after all. Leslie trusts and re-

Paula is going 10 be no worse be-

Coolidge Wants
Full Probe of
Veterans Bureau

Washington, Oct. 27-Careful ex-
1 animation by the Senate Investigat-
] ing Committee of all evidence indica-
| ting corruption or wrong doing In
! the Veterans Bureau was recon-
mended today by President Coolidge.
Senator Oddie of Nevada, Republi-
| can member of the committee, called
at the White House and gave the
| first official report on the hearing to
| the President. who heretofore had
known of them only through the
newspapers. He said Mr.. Coolidge
| is anxious to have the charges sifted
to the bottom. He told the Presi-
| dent that only one side of the case
! has been heard, but declared enough
had developed to make a further
probe absolutely essential.
Mr.. Coolidge's view Is in accord
with this wish of the committee,
| which is expected to offer bits of
sensation for Washington until the
| time Congress meets. The White
| House has been careful to explain
| that the President has taken no posi-
ton on the innocence or guilt Of per-
| sons mentioned in the inquiry. The
| Presidents desire for a clean sweep
of the bureau during the investiga-
| ton Is based on the hope that the
Senate will go far enough into the
charges to see whether action by the
Department Of Justice will be neces-
sary.
The military record Of Col.
Charles r. Forbes, ex-director of the
bureau. against whom charges of
graft and corruption have been filed
with the committee, will be inspect
ed by the senator's. 1t was learned
at the War Department today that
the record had been turned over to
Maj. Gen. John F. Organ, counsel
for the committee, the department
meanwhile declining OF make 1t pub
lie. During his service at the Vet
Grams Bureau various stories were
| circulated about Col. Forbes record
in the Army. The obtaining of data
from the War Department indicates
that the committee intends to bring
all the facts to light.
