she was not helping him to run away;
he was no longer hunted-at least he
was not only hunted; he was hunting
others too. AS the car rolled down
upon the open gates and he strained
forward in the seat beside her, she
knew that what he was feeling was
wild eagerness in this pursuit.

they?" she rejoined The speed at
which they were going did not permit
her to look about: she had to keep
her eyes on the road at that moment

 Each nation with economic and po- litlcal interests in the east will sure- iy use it's broadcasting stations to explain its good intentions and to penetrate ethereally spheres of in fluence that it cannot enter physical iy except at Its peril. It will become more important, than ever to win sympathies rather than territories.

Door For American Aid to Eu- rope Closed, Senator elect FeSS Tells New York
 Republicans

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-President Harding is deeply concerned over the grave turn of events in Europe re- sulting from the collapse of the con ference of premiers in Paris, Senator elect Simeon D. Fess of Ohio told the National Republican club today at a discussion of present foreign policy
 His address was interpreted by many as an intimate revelation of the administrations position in the criti- cal period. particularly an assertion that we should not foster the calling of an economic conference"
 "We thought a commisso of ex- perts to pass on the facts in rela- ton to separations might be wei comed," he said, but the suggestion was not welcome and it seems to me the door is now closed. Therefore, what we may now do is not very en- couraging."
 Senator elect Fess drew the fire of Henry Moreenthau former ambassa- dor to Turkey, when he said:
 I've believe that the financing Of Europe should not be done by any action of the government, but by American business.
 Speaking as a democrat. MT. Nor genthau termed the proposed non official reparations commission, "a deliberate attempt by the republican administration to pass the buck at this critical period in the worlds 8 af- fairs to the business men of Amer ica.'
 MT. Morgenthau spoke frankly to the republicans in defense of former President Wilson's policy. He pre- dfcted hls party would return to power in two years and would find a way to participate actively in Euro pean affairs.
 "The republican party" he said, "is attempting to poison the minds of the American people against the League of Nations and the peace treaty in 1918, until both have be- come the football of politics to an extent that has tied the hands and feet of the nation so that it is power less now to act, though it's own safety and the fate of civilization are at stake in the present through which western Europe is passing"
 Albert w. Krech, president of~the Equitable Trust company, another speaker, held the view that perma- nent peace in Europe could be estab- lshed only by putting the currencies of all European nations on gold basis in dfrecL rhtlo lo tHe present purchasing power of their existing currencies.
 Apparently interpreting change in the administration policy, he said:
 "It seems tG me the voice of Hughes in the New Haven speech IS to be regarded as a voice from the wilderness proclaiming, Prepare ye the way.'
 The American people, he declared, ahad a model responsibility in the
