One day when I was a small

have been some note of especial
need in the cry, for she came
hurrying and wide-eyed from the
house. l only wanted herr to see
and admire the doll house had
just finished, but my method of
calling had undoubtedly indicated
that I was in dire distress.
The fact that that particular
cry got immediate attention did
not escape my notice. 50 the next
day tried 1t again. Several times

finally my mother, who had re-
quested me not to call her unless
/ really needed her for something,
took me on her lap and said she
had story she wanted to tell
me.
Then she related the tale of the
little boy who saw wolf. He
cried, Wolf! Wolf" and everyone
came running to his aid. The
wolf, frightened by his cries, ran
away, but the little boy next day
thought he'd have good joke on
his parents and neighbors; so he
loudly called. "Wolf! Wolff" again,
whereupon they all came running
again, and he laughed at them.
Two or three times he did this.
The fourth time his mother was
busy baking and his father was
busy ploughing the field, and the
neighbors were busy doing various
kinds of work. They heard the

SURPRISING
COATS

The new coats are ravishing-
not only in the attractive way they
have of showing the exact lines of
the figure but also in their decora-
tions. The latter will not be as
large as heretofore - but very
small; they win take the form of
small bars, circles, triangles. and
half moons, reduced to the small
est Imaginable proportions. They
will be placed on the garment like
a let of water-but so happily that
the whole will tend to form an
even design, which will gradually
diminish in size toward the hem of
the garment. - Therese Clemen-

On a Vital
Topic
By Beatrice Fairfax

WHILE jealously is destructive
w and useless, yet this does not
mean that man should, without
protesting, let his wife drift away
from him and neglect her duty to
himself and her home. Marriage,
like any other partnership, brings
definite responsibilities, which
neither partner has the right to
shirk.
Dear Miss Fairfax" writes
"a Reader" on this theme. II
often wonder whether it is ieal-
Ousy that prevents my wife and
myself from getting along hap.
PLY together for any length of
time.
Her parents and 1 never have
been on good terms and when
she tells me she is going there
just rage until things turn black.
I have tried hard to overcome this
but in vain.
when she goes there they
persuade her to stay two or three
months at time and If call her
on the phone some one of the fam
fly always answers and hangs up
the receiver. This time she has
been away four months, and not a
word! I am beginning to think
there may be some other attrac-
ton.
"I would give her up for her
own happiness, although 1 love
her sincerely. When she is gone
all / do is pace the floor. When
we go out together or have com.
pany at home, am never jealous.
"She says / am jealous of her
people. Is this true? Or am 1
just a fool to keep on standing
for it,"
Well, that depends, dear Reader.

parents. But if she insists on do
ing this do not know what you
can do about it, except leave her.
AS it is, you are miserable most
Of the time and your worry un-

you can decide whether 1T is more
worth your while TO put up with
your wife's dereliction or take
legal steps to give her up.
An occasional day or so with
her parents-even a week or two
as an annual holiday-would seem
justifiable. But four months at
a time, provided she goes often,
amounts practically to deserting
her own home and husband.
Possibly if you and she have a
serious talk on the subject, and
you keep your head and your tenn

frequency of her visits to her

OF course the Iayette contains
one of several fluffy little down
pillows with exquisite embroid-
cred cases. But don't let the
baby sleep on them. Until the
child is several years old he will
sleep with no pillow at all in
warm weather, and with only
the thinnest little down or cotton
pillow in cold weather, mere
pad. really. not more than two
or three inches thick, just to
keep his neck warm. Keep the
pretty pillows with embroidered
cases to trim up his bed when
he is out of it, and later to
prop him up in his carriage
when he first begins to sit up.
And don't use feather pillow as
q mattress in his coach; it's far
too soft and warm and will over
heat the child's body.-Phoebe

THE MODERN
RAKE

Rakes of two kinds should be
on hand; one of steel for the
surface of cultivated earth and
for certain uses on the lawn,
and one of wire with many teeth,
for leaf-raking in the fall. A
wide rake saves time and labor
and these wire rakes are very
light. The Japanese bamboo rake
now commonly used is treasure
for cleaning up the grass or for
improving the surface of a gravel
walk by taking from it every
thing that does not belong there,
never a pebble of the material
that does.-Mrs. Francis King in

FORM new Steel
TRUST TO FIGHT
WORKERS union
To Be One of Biggest
Corporations

CLEVELAND, Ohio, April 49,
A $30,000,C00 syndicate, believed the
first step of a plan to organize the
country's third great steel corpora
ton, was under development here
today.
Organized to acquire steel stocks,
the syndicate was reported to be
part of plan to strengthen the
holdings of its sponsors preliminary
to an attempt to merge the Youngs-
town Sheet and Tube Co. of Youngs-
town; the Inland Steel Co. of Chi
cago, and Republic Iron and Steel
Company of Youngstown and Mas
sillion, Ohio.
One of the main objects of the
steel trust will be to combat the eff
forts of the workers in the mills to
organize their union. Only recently
the workers at the Massillion mill,
of the Republic Iron and Steel Co.,
one of the firms involved in the
merger, struck. Workers in one of
the plants of the Central Alloy
Steel Corporation, also involved in
the trust, struck a short time ago.
The dominating figure in the move
was said to be Cyrus S. Eaton,
Cleveland investment broker and
partner of Otis and Co. reports said.
The new corporation would become
one of the three Creates steel cor
porations, surpassed in size only by
the United States Steel and Bethle-
hem Steel.
The ultimate consolidation may
strive to include Central Alloy Steel
Corporation, adding upwards of $685.

AIME:E'S Mother
BETRAYS CRAFT
Says Judge Got Check
for legal Service"

SACRAMENTO, April 16. -
Preachers in California are begin
ming to see new meaning in the
tactics aseribed to Jesus by the bible,
where it says he eschewed family re-
lationships. Mrs. Kennedy, the
mother of Rev. Aimee Semple Nc
Pherson, has an affidavit before the
Senate, which is trying Judge Car
los Harvey for taking graft in the
kidnapping case" of her preacher
daughter, which badly Injuries the
judges, and the lady preachers de-
tense.
Mrs. Kennedy quarreled with
Aimee over the division of the
profits from their Four Square Cos
pei Tabernacle at Los Angeles, and
now the mother swears the $1,000
check given the judge by her daugh-
ter was "for legal services"
Suborned Perjury.
The prosecution says this illegal
service" could have been nothing
else than the corrupting of justice
while the female preacher was
charged with claiming to be kid
mapped in Mexico when she was
really enjoying the society of a man
named Ormiston in a beach bunga-
low at Carmel, Calf. The defense
of Aimee and Judge Hardy is that
the $1,000 was merely little token
of friendship.
Mrs. Wiseman- Sielaff continued
her testimony against Hardy today,
and said that he conspired with her
to produce perjured affidavit
which would declare that "Miss x"
was Omissions companion in the
beach bungalow and not Rev. Aimee
Mcpherson. The woman who posed
as Miss X" the witness said, was
a certain Rachel Wells of San Fran
cisco. Mrs. Wiseman-Seiliff stated
to the senate that both the judge
and the Rev. Aimee admitted that
Orrniston had Aimee with him.

Steel Trust Sells New
Stock; Dodges Tax; See
S1,500,000, 900 in Sales

The United States Steel Corpora
ton will sell additional stock to
holders of record May 1 at $140 per
share in the ratio of one new share
for each seven held, directors de-
cided at their meeting here yester-
day.
Directors simultaneously called
the 50-year bond issue of the cor
poration for payment September l.
No action has yet been taken on
calling the 10 to 60 year issue. The
50-year debt amounts to $134,830,.
600.
The new common stock to be is
sued will amount to 1,016,605 shares.
President Farrell told the stockhold-
ers' meeting the plants were operat-
ing at So per cent capacity and sales
in 1929 would probably amount to
S1,500,O00,000. In 1928 they were
S1,374,000,000.
This bond redemption program is
the largest the corporation has ever
undertaken, but is largely a paper
transaction, as the inner ring con-
trolling the steel trust, mainly the
group around j. Pierpont Morgan,
owns most of the bonds too. The
purchase of the bonds out of profits
of the company is one way to avoid
paying income tax and to avoid the
appearance of granting big divi-
dends.

LETTERS FROM TENANTS
Landlord Tries to Evict JobLess Worker

The campaign exposing the hous-
ing conditions in Harlem now being
carried on by the Daily Worker has
awakened great interest among the
Negro workers, who, as they are
invited to do, are sending in letters
on housing conditions to the Daily
Worker. The following is letter
received from Lula Grant, a tenant
in Harlem:
500 Lenox Ave.
Dear Editor:
l am constant reader Of your Won
derful paper and am very glad to
read of your campaign in the
Negro district" My sister lives at
the above address and l can assure
you she would be pleased to have
you go through her apartment and
see the deplorable state of same.
Refuses Toilet Seat.
She lived there a number of years
and the landlord refused even to
give her a toilet seat regardless of
the old enc falling apart. Her dumb
waiter is in the apartment and they
refuse to call for garbage. So you
can imagine the smell and noise
that comes from it.
He wants her to vacate so he can
raise the rent. She cannot leave
just now for she is without work
and can only afford to pay for the
present apartment.

you won't overlook and that is Sc
