REORGANIZATION
OF State, PLAN
Governor Would Call Special Session
Next Fall After Survey

OLYMPIA Jan. 2l.-Gov Hartley asked the legislature
" today to declare legislative holiday and adjourn
February H. TO give him chance make horo business
survey OF every state department.
This date is month prior to the date which the
legislature is scheduled to conclude its 1925 session.
He promised joint session of the senate and house
they would do this and that he would take government
out of business and call special session in November to
completely reorganze state government.
Hartley. in message to both houses, said in part
and too much governed by surplus of law while labor and
private activities of all classes of citizens sufficiently
regulated and protected by existing statutes
People insstent for little legislation possible
propose to make business survey Of every department OF
state government to effect economies and tax reduction
Such survey cannot be completed while you in session
Il recommend therefore, that you proceed with such
necessary for the operation of state depart
ments for year only carry all road construction thru
the biennium, and have the administrative building
ready for the 1927 session.
II recommend that you consider economy to
geher the proposed child labor amendment and let
other legislation be considered That you adjourn not later
than February II.
IF this recommendation meets with your approval
promise you viii call the Legislature in special session early
November this year. and at that time will present to you
the results of my survey together with program that will
effect substantial saving to the taxpayers and include
plan of business operation for the departments of govern
ment.
Harey's message took legislators and tax galleries
petey by surprise. The general reaction favorable,
but whether the legislature be coerced into foregoing its
usual orgy Of legislation said to be doubtful

May Seymour. whose husband killed himself because of her love affair with another man, returns to her home town after years ab- sence. She sells her property, and with her whole tiny fortune in cash, sets out 10 find and marry n man with money,
 At Atlantic City she meets Her bert Waterbury and Dan Sprague through a divorcee, Mrs. Carlotta Frolking. Both men pay suit to May, greatly to the distress of Car lotta, who has long been in love with Dan. She and May become great friends. however, and Carlotta asks May to winter with her in her California bungalow.
 May sets her cap for Waterbury, who she believes to be rich. He finally proposes and May accepts him. Later she turns all her money over to him 10 invest for Her and he disappears
 Penniless May sells her furs and diamonds to buy ticket to Los Altos, California, where Carlotta | has her home. On the way, she stops in her own town 10 see her | old friends, the Dick Gregorys, and meets wealthy widower, Ulysses | Forgan. He falls in love with her | and asks her 10 marry him. But she refuses him, telling him that she 1 likes him too well to marry him without love.
 ! In California she tries 10 break into the movies and fails Then she ! gets job in a real estate office. and leaves because her married em- ployer, Henry Harker, makes love 10 her. She decides then to do noth- l ing for a while but to throw her self upon Carlotta's hospitality.
 One afternoon she and Carlotta ] have a little tiff over Gabriel Gug- liemo, movie idol whom Dan has promised to bring for dinner.

 Why have never seen you be- fore?" Gabriel asked, when they were at the table. '1 have been here for three solid years and . where have they been hiding you from me?"
 May laughed.
 where did you live before you came to this country" she asked, 1 ignoring his questions.
 Dan answered her. Gabriel never lived anywhere until three years ago." he said thickly. May saw then that he was very drunk. His eyeballs were covered with little red veins, and his face wal @arkly flushed. His hands trembleL, as ic held his fork.

 With the sigh Of a martyr, May got up and went to her. I'm so sorry, dear" she said, sympatheti- cally, She really was sorry for Car lotta at that moment, standing flushed and half-tearful beside the hot stove.
 Carlotta grunted. Your being sorry doesn't make me new tureen of soup. Beautiful Dol" she snapped, her eyes travelling up and down May, with anger In their depths. If. you'd been here to stir it while I squeezed the oranges in stead of dolling yourself up like a manikin, it'd have been more to the point"
 With a swift movement of her fat little arm she cmptied the con- tents of the soup kettle down the sink. "Doggone It." she cried wild ly.
 May couldn't help laughing. Never mind," she soothed her "I'll run down 10 the store for some canned peaches and cherries, and we'll have fruit cocktail to start off with. instead of the soup"
 Without word she went into her bedroom for her hand bag, and left the house. Halfway down the street long, yellow car whizzed by her. She caught a glimpse of the two men in it Dan and Cab. ricl Guglicmo, no doubt. She quick, ened her step.
 When she returned the house was brilliantly lighted, and the sound of music came from the oper front door. She stole around to the kitchen and noiselessly. deftly made the fruit cocktail. When sht had piled it into frosted cups ant set them on the dining-room table she drew back the portieres with { flourish.

 If she could have seen herself a that moment she would hay'
