FEW BILLS BECOME LAW.
Only One in Thirty Enacted. Says
Volume on Government.

Probably less than one-thirtieth of
the bills introduced in Congress ever
reach the stage of enactment nto law
according to the estimate made by
Frederic J. Haskin in the new and en-
larged edition of The American
Government" A larger proportion of
bills for the relief of individuals are
passed than those of public nature.
Only a few hundred general laws are
passed by a single Congress.
If every amendment to the Consti-
tuition which has been proposed in
the last twenty years had been APP
proved b" Congress, and ratified by
the states few important provisions of
that ancient document would now be
effective. When the Sixty-seventh
Congress adjourned, for instance,
there were pending approximately 100
proposed amendments to the Consti-
tuition.
"The American Government" will
be furnished to readers Of this paper
at a nominal expense, as explained in
coupon published elsewhere in this

Honorable Jim"

Baroness OrcZy is a period writer
along the lines Of Sabatini. While
1 was reading her latest, THE Hon
orable jim" published by George II.
DOran Company, 1 had the thought
that she was attempting to be an
other Sabatini.
There is plenty Of room in the
field of historical romantic writing.
Sabatini is the popular favorite Of
the day, but there is room for others.
The background of this novel Is
seventeenth century. England. the
days when King Charles was having
more than domestic trouble in his
palace. but a real fight with his
people
You are interested in a woman
and TWO men as the central char
,acters in this drama of England.
Here is an entertaining story, crude
at times, but a dramatic situation
covers up the slight defect of tech
nique. There are several well-drawn
characters and one or two you will
admire.
Baroness Orczy sticks rather close
to certain facts, but her strength
lies in holding suspense until her
characters arrive at a climax. 1t
seems to me that she builds her
story for one powerful effect-the
big event near the end of the book
Those who enjoy historical novels
will do we'll to meet James Finnes,
the honorable JIM" and his wife,
for whole love he had to fgnt for,
even after he had married her.
