mistress-he should be angry or
at least contemptuons. Through
sheer inanitiorl she walked by his
side while he hoped that she had
had a pleasant journey and re-
yealed that he himself had been
on the same train.
He was giving her details OF
how he had managed to follow
her taxi. The details made no
impression. but the tone in which
he recounted them made deep
impression. He had the air OF
waiting for her congratulations
on his cleverness.
Presently they had turned to q
quiet corner of the Square, and
Roger. please stop talking"
she exclaimed. II don't know
whether you have been talking
for mere talking's sake. But I'm
still waiting to know why you
have spoken to me.
He stopped short, and stared at
her.
"Rut my dear girl-surely-it
cannot be that you took my letter
at its face value?"
There was no doubt about the
genuineness of his surprise.
II don't know what you mean.
Your letter seemed perfectly clear.

there was no reason at all why
you should divorce me. :"
But of course believe there's
no reason" he almost shouted at
her.
OH. 1t was a tiny moan and
he had not heard it. 1t was
drawn from her by nothing other
than the sudden dread that the
new life that was opening up be-
fore her should be cut off. At
that momenet of self-revelation
she could admit to herself that
she did not want to be-"for-
given" by Roger. above all, did
not want to resusciate their mar
ried life.
II still don't understand" she
said firmly. If you believe that
there is nothing between Alan and
me that there ought not 10 be-

his forehead--it was his gesture
of evaporation.

in order to give you chance to

SIS 'T've told him to drive to the
FELTON,. he said. II shall be at the
5 cIub-the Luke, you know"
She nodded and a moment later
the taxi had started. She had been
I foolish to think he would come
with her. There would have been
no reason for his presence there.
She had a lot to attend to any,
how-why should he come!
There followed the tiresome bust
ness of engaging her room. To
her surprise the rather Indifferent
young man in the office became
suddenly overpolite when Shirley
eshad signed the register.
s. well now. Mrs. Kelton, you
like to see your room at once,
expect. I'm giving you Number
Eixty-three.'
The room was a good deal better
than Shirley had expeeted-she
had thought of the FELTON, as rep
resenting poverty. She waited
while her trunks were brought in,
then spoke to the porter.
"WHI you send someone to un-
pack my things. plea SCI"
The porter scratched his head.
1t was an unusual req dest at the

Of wondering seemed to lead him

Left alone with her trunks. Shir-
lev discovered that she did not
want to unpack in the very least.
She wanted to- start the new life
and the first step was to call on
the lawyer whose name Alan had
given her, and to arrange for the
removal of her personal property.
Z The FELTON, was in side street
off Washington Square and the
address of the lawyer was In lower
broadway. She was glad OF
chance to stretch her limbs ana
decided to walk.
She turned the corner or the
square and had scarcely gone
dozen PAGES when she heard her
name called.

she turned round and faced her
husband.

House Approves Bill Pro-
viding Trip for Gold
Star Survivors

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 tP)-With-
out protest or debate, the house to-
day approved a bill to enable mothers
and widows of war veterans buried IN
Europe to make a pilgrimage to Amer.
ican cemeteries overseas at govern
ment expense. The widows would
be restricted to those who have not
remarked.
The measure, which now goes to
the senate, would empower the presl-
dent, in cooperation with the Amer
lean Red Cross, to arrange for the
pilgrimages "at any time during the
period of three years from July J,
1928"
The mothers and widows would be
taken to Europe in groups. Each
group would remain abroad approx
mately two weeks and in no case
longer than three weeks unless re-
turn transportation were unavailable.
First class accommodations would be
provided either on government own
ed or chartered ships Passports
would be arranged for by the state
department and immigration laws
would be suspended in the case OF
aliens.
The bill, sponsored by Chairman
Butler of the house naval committee,
would not call for specific appro-
priation, authorizing the expenditure
of "such sum as may be necessary" ="
During consideration of the bill by
the house military committee it was
estimated by Mrs Mathilda A. Bur-
ling, national representative OF the
Gold Star Mothers association OF
America, that not in excess of 5000
mothers would desire to make the
trip. There are approximately 10000
American soldiers, sailors and ma
rines buried in Europe.
Chairman NORM in reporting the
bill, quoted from Mrs. Burling's teS-
timony to the committee as follows:
| "I would like to make a case for an
example. On Feb. Is it will be the
tenth anniversary of my boy. He
was my only child. To me he was only a
child, only II years old when he
went across He was killed at the
time when to me life was the sweet
est, only to be turned to sorrow at
the receipt of the dreadful telegram
announcing his death.

Japanese Delegate in Ge-
neva Conference Makes
Declaration

GENEVA, Feb. 20 lP-Japan, be-
lieving that lher arbitration treaties
possibly are too far-reaching, may
revise them, Visccunt Saito of that
nation said tonight. These treaties
exclude from arbitration disputes
that affect Japanese territorial and
interests or Japanese honor.
The Viscount's announcement, made
at the preliminary security confer
ence convoked to promote disarma-
ment, created somewhat of sensa-
ton. The delegates are wondering
whether Japan will go step farther
than the United States and France.
when they negotiated the recent pact
of arbitration and outlawry of war,
Viscount Saito declared that world
conditions had changed since the old
treaties we're signed and that the
Japanese government was giving the
treaties close examination from the
standpoint of whether they were too
far reaching, or at least tco indefinite.
It is remarked that the arbitration
treaty between Japan and the United
States will expire soon and must be
renewed, and it is being asked how
far the United States would be
disposed to go to meet any sweeping
Japanese proposal calculated to make
the. new treaty a more effective in

HaUana Conference
Closes; Delegates
.Show Satisfaction

HAVANA, Feb. 20 P-The sixth
international conference Of American
states, known also as the Pan
American congress, adjourned today
and is sending to the governments
of 81 republics of the new world a
heavy batch of resolutions and con-
ventionS for ratifications.
The delegates generally express
satisfaction with the results of their
labors in Havana They point out
that in this most dramatic Pan
American conference ever held the
policies and opinions of all the coun-
tries were stated SO candidly and
forcefully that even if the differences
among the nations were marked more
clerly than the points of contact, still
many illusions and misunderstanding
which are SO harmful to the material
ization of Pan-AmericaniSm were
swept away.
The text OF the final proceedings
of the conference, including all mo-
tions, agreements, resolutions and
conventions concluded here, was
signed this morning by all the dele
cations, excepting Paraguay, whose
representative was absent from the
plenary session at which the ceremony
occurred. The conference officials,
however, do not assign any special
Importance to the failure of Paraguay
to sign, saying that Lisandro Diaz
Leon, the sole Paraguayan delegate,
had expressed willingness to sign and
would have an opportunity to do so
at any time before his departure
from Havana.
Although this mornings signatures
pledge approval of all the delegations
to the agreements concluded, all the
draft conventions will require a sep
arate signature, which is fixed fer
tomorrow.
The ceremony was very simple, all
the farewell exercises and speeches
having been reserved for the after
noon session, where DR.. BuStamente,
president of the conference, in the
name OF the Cuban government, bade
godspeed to the delegates.
Upon Jacobo Varela, of Uruguay,
fell the honor of replying 10 DR..
Bustamente, in the name of the
foreign governments, as the repre-
sentative of the country where the
next Pan american conference VIII
be held. The chief function OF Pan
Annericanism, he said, was Ito recon-
cile the magnificent civilization which
is flourishing under the Stars and
Stripes, and the other civilization so

"To say that everything joins
United States and Latin America and
nothing separates them" said Senior
VareIa, would only create deep mis-
understandings or dangerous preju-
dices. the Americas have much in
common, especially in democratic
principles and commercial and fl

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20 tP =
Compulsory registration of lobby
lists was recommended to the sem
ate today by it's judiciary commit
tee, which approved the Caraway
mill making such provision.
A proposal of the same kind but
reaching its result through amend
ment OF the senate rules and
carving no penalty clause, was
thrown into the hopper during the
recent senate debate on the Walsh
power resolution which was mark
ed by charges Of intensive lobby
activities.
Under the Caraway bill, lobby

not less than S1OO or more than
