CHAPTER "A
Tess wanted the four of them
to go to Spain-.jaunt around in
jolly little French car!
IF he goes" thought Jerry,
feeling very pale and wild, IF
he goes"
She didn't finish the threat.
She began visualizing them flying
about romantic valleys of Spain,
coming upon old Moorish castles,
wandering here through long. red
gold autumn days, soft, intoxicat-
ing nights
If Saxon Rhodes went on this
trip with Tess Will it would, of
course, be the end of things for
her. She wondered how he dared
write of it. Mustn't he know
how the mere suggestion would
inflame her?
She grew weak with her fury
as she contemplated this brazen
plan. Tess would, of course, con-
slider herself very Bohemian, one
OF the intelligentsia, one of the
enlightened experimenters in love
and life. All the while she would
be counting on making her ex.
pertinent permanent. Enmeshing
Saxon. and for life!
The curse of it that Tess Will
had the money to live this golden
adventure-but she. Jerry. must
remain helpless. 5000 miles re.
moved from him.
She went walking about the
reservoir, white despair in her
heart.
At the bench where they had
sat that last night. their hands
tucked 80 tremblingly together,
she paused. HE won't go-of
course he won't. Don't be silly"
But why shouldn't he? It's
just a sketching tour. He can
easily excuse it on that ground.
Do you want him to be lonely?
Do you begrudge him a little
fun just because you can't share
it,"
She gripped the bench. shook

he walked.
Beautiful-oh, infinitely beauti-
full that he should come to her
like this. So natural it seemed
the pause at the gate, the quick
step on the walk. His nearness,
his DEAFNESS beside her there.

On the very heels of this came
the news of Tess arrival. Arriv-
ing just when he was sunk IN
utter loneliness.
Jerry reading his letter and ex-
aggerating each phrase could have
torn the paper to pieces. she
laughed at herself and thought
mockingly: 'I'm jealous. didn't

tempered it. Here it was
confronting her in black and

Jerry, reading that last tactless
line, could have flown to Paris.
She fancied herself blazing into
that little cafe in the Quarter,
etorming up to their table, wildly
boxing Tess ears.

lines, Inc, the state railroad board
was told here today by Mark M.
Hurd of Minneapolis.
Hurd was the only witness at the
hearing by the railroad board on the
application Of the Mid-Plane Sales
and Transit company of Minneapolis
for permission to operate an air
service from Fargo to Beach with
stops at Valley City, jamestown,
Bismarck, and other points. The
Mid-Plane company also has made
application for permission to oper-
ate an air service from Wahpeton
to the Canadian border and hearing
on that matter was held this morn
ing.
Application for permission to
operate an airline from Fargo to
Beach also has been made by the
North Dakota Midwest Airplane
company, headed by Adam Lefor of
Dickinson and evidence bearing on
this application was to have been
presented today. Illness, however,
kept Lefor from attending and his
company will be given an emporium
lty to present its data on Novem-
Der 8.
Hurd told the commission that
consolidation and mergers are be-
Ing made so fast among airplane
operators that the average air
transport pilot hardly knows the
name Of the company for whom he
is working and predicted that only
two major companies will be in the
field within q short time, the prac-
fice being to absorb the smaller
companies which are pioneering in
dependent airlines. The reason for
this, he said, is greater efficiency
and economy of operation and the
fact that small airlines have
trouble in paying their way.
The intention of the Universal
company, which controls the Mid
Plane company and other subsidi-
aries, is to organize network of
hirlines covering the country, he
said. with a northern transconti-

continent trip from Seattle would
be made in So hours, he said, by
plane and rail, passengers arriving
in Cleveland by train in time to take
the night train from Cleveland to
New York. The trip from North
Dakota to New York would take
about Is hours, Hurd said. The
initial rates, he said, would be about
tO cents a mile, but reductions
would be made when the volume of
business warrants.

bid on airmail contracts when the

BOSTO, May 22-The most re-

Blackstone was the first resi-

WASHINGTON, May 22-Heed-
ing the RECOMMENDATION of President
Coolidge and fearful of new
food disaster being laid at its door,
the house today took up the Swing
Johnson bill for the building of
the Boulder Canyon dam on the
Colorado river.
With the threat of filibuStering
tactics met by a firm decision OF
leaders to bring the bill to a vote
all indications pointed towards its
passage within three days.
In an effort to relieve the feder-
al government of the cost of food
protection. sponsors of the bill
evolved the scheme of building
$50 foot dam on the river be-
tween Nevada and Arizona, gener.
ating electricity and selling water
both for irrigation proposes and
domestic use in southern Calf
Ornia cities.
This scheme wOulu make 1t pos
sible for the repayment of the
SIPS, 100000 cost of the project to
the federal government within 20
years, hackers of the measure
claimed.
The only stumbling blocks in the
path of the measure appeared to
be the opposition of the power in
terests to a government dam on
the Colorado, where power sites
are already being eagerly sought
and the refusal of Arizona to join
with six other states in = compact
for the project.
Unable to meet all of Ari-
ZOna's objections. the house
irrigation committee recon-
mended that congress recOg-
nize the Boulder dam as emer-
gency legislation of national
scope and to pass the bill.
Representative Smith, republ-
can of Idaho. chairman of the ir-
rigation Sommittee and Represen-
tative Swing, republican of Califor
MIA, co-author oil the bill led the
fight for the bill with Represen-
tative Douglas democrat of Ari-
IONA and Representative Leather
wood republican of Utah opposing
the measure.
To meet the objections oil many
anti-government ownership MEM
berS Of the committee it was pro-
vided that the secretary of the in
terror could sell the power from
the Boulder dam to private COM
panies which WCul1 distribute it.
Powerful sup1Ort is expect
ed for the bill both from the
Republican AMI Democratic
sides. Representative TilsOn,
Connecticut. republican leader,
was expected to back the prin-
cipleS of the bill with Repre-
sentative Garner. democrat of
Texas, heading a strong demo-
cratic group.
So great was the interest in the
measure that Smith was unable
to meet all requests of the mem
bers for time to participate in the
debate.
