says Van Vaerenewyck. He outlined
the confession of Celestino Madeiros
that he and the Morelli gang COM
mitted the murders. He went into
the criminal record of the Morellis,
their acquaintance with the Slater &
Morell Shoe Co., whose payroll was
robbed in the murder job. One of
the Morellis had worked in the plant;
others had been convicted of stealing
shoes from the factory. They were
desperate for money.

Washington-(FP)-Chinese big

the Chinese social revolution. 1t

will only intensity the class strug-

powers to stay out, and it warns
them that their attempts to stem

by Rep. Theodore Burton of Ohio at

Koo presented his own credentials

WASHINGTON.-If you must have
inspiration with your reading, you
might do worse than to study the au-
topography of the Hon. j. Thomas
Heflin senator from Alabama
For some reason or other, this re-
markable tract has failed to be in
cluded in the list of books which every
boy should read. But every boy who
ever liked Horatio Alger would be en-
thusiastic over it.
The account is published by the
| New Menace and is entitled "Boyhood
Days of j. Thomas Heflin, United
States Senator From Alabama (In His
Own Words" Book reviewers have
paid little attention to it, so the job
seems to be up to your correspondent
Responsibility for the Heflin oratory
apparently may be laid to the schools
which served his birthplace of Louina
Ala, where, at the age Of 10, the fu-
ture statesman was forced to declaim
every Friday afternoon. He got to
like it,
But let us quote an incident of Hef-
Inns early career in his own words:
1--WE had good cook, old Aunt Rose
Dannelly, but she had bad temper
and her bad temper brought me into
serious and difficult situation in a
little while. One afternoon about sun
down I heard my little sister scream

the trouble was and she told me Aunt
Rose had slapped her
"In less time than / can tell it, ]
seized a piece of wood about five feet
long and struck Aunt Rose across the
head, and she danced bee line across
the room and fell TO the floor. For a
moment there was a grim silence and
nothing more. Then I commenced tC
shake Aunt Rose and tell her to get
up, that I didn't intend to kill her.
In a minute or two she opened her
eyes and got up and left with the
supper still on the stove. I was Wor-
ried for a minute. . :"
But not for long. Fourteen-year-
old Thomas realized it was up to him
to complete the supper, and sure
enough he did. 1t was a success
and his father approved his wallop at
Aunt Rose. But Aunt Rose didn't re-
turn that evening and Thomas had to
cook breakfast.
"Well, Aunt Rose never came back .
concludes the senator, land the news
spread all over the community that
the Heflin boy had killed a cook So
for some time we couldn't get a cook
for love or money. BY that time had
become such success as a cook, &C

older brothers. to whom I was giving
such eminent satisfaction by serv-
ing them scrambled eggs and fried
chicken and ham, that they wanted me

More Truth Than Poetry
HIS MAJESTY or RUMANIA
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE

One hundred per cent patriotic,
And possessed of will of my own
I have always been proud that wasn't
endowed
With a scepter, crown and a
throne;
/ envied no ermine robed monarch
In domains that lie over the sea,
And grateful I felt that from birth
had dwelt
In the Land of the Brave and the
Free,
Where it never can be any citizens
fate
To become a poor over-worked slave
of the state.
The kings I had heard of were bur-
dened
With sorrows and troubles untold
They looked far from serene in the
portraits I'd seen
But seemed fretful, and nervous and
old.
I knew I could never endure it
All the morning and afternoon long
To drive up and down through the
streets of the town
And respond to the cheers of the
throng,
To sit all alone in a box at the play
Or put on fresh clothes six or eight
times day.
But king who has never worry,
And regal abundance of toys
Who has merely to sneer to wake
quavers of fear
In the hearts of all bad little boys
Whose teachers don't ever dare scold
him,
And are glad if he gives them a
smile
Though he won't even look at a prob
lem or book
That kind of a king is worth while.
And, although I'm aware that it never
can be
That sort Of kingship would satisfy
me!
