WHEAT SHOULD

SAYS EXPERT
Grain Corporation Chief
Thinks Domestic Prices
Will Remain Stable.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-The federal
government has taken steps to pre-
vent the present wheat price levels
from dropping lower although a
further decline in domestic prices
appears unwarranted, George S.
Minor, president of the Grain
Sterilization Corporation, said to-
day.
although the stocks Of wheat
shown in the visible supply are
large" Minor said, there is no con-
gestion in any of the terminal mar
kets, and farm stocks Of the grain
are decreasing rapidly owing to
heavy feeding.
Therefore hedging pressure is
negligible and a further decline in
domestic prices seems unwarranted."
With wheat selling at the lowest
price in twenty-five years, flour
prices fully reflecting those of
wheat and with bread lower than
for many years. the consumer is re-
ceiving the full benefits of complete
deflation, he said
The sterilization corporation,
affiliated with the federal farm
board, recently pegged the price of
December wheat on the Chicago
exchange at about IS cents a bushel,
purchasing all grain offered at that
price.

CHAPTER /.

Robin Dale, not long out Of
college, was hardly past his
dub" days when the Weadon
case broke" The first crime
was sensational enough, but
the succeeding startling devel-
opments fed the metropolitan
dailies with headlines and front
page stories for days. The pc
culiar feature of the case was
that the subsequent happenings
had apparently no connection
with the initial crime, and vet
they were all linked in a mys-
terious, almost uncanny, man
ner.
Oliver Weadon was cashier
of the Hancock National Bank,
on upper Broadway. One day
he disappeared with 100000
of the banks money. That
crime, of itself, appeared to be
simple enough. Yet it was
strangely complicated by the
manner in which Oliver Wea-
don was found and a number
of subsequent crimes that had
no apparent connection with
the bank theft. In each of these
cases the leading clue was a
$1,000 bill, five Of which had
been stolen from the bank by
Weadon.
The Hancock National Bank
had a record Of the serial num-
bers on these bills, and, while
it was strange that Weadon
should under such circumstan-
ces have pilfered them, it was
even more myStifying when
they bobbed up in vastly differ
ent locales.
Robin Dale had been as
signed by the city editor to get
the story. There was little to
be learned about Weadon. The
cashier was a bachelor. lived
alone in an apartment near
Central Park and enjoyed a
rather sporty existence.
At the bank Dale interviewed
the manager, Allan Tenant,
and learned that the abscond.
ing cashier had always been an
exemplary employe.
AT that particular period
Robin Dale's regular assign.
ment on the Daily Journal
was to a unique "headquarterS''
on West Seventy-ninth Street.
The place was opposite q police
precinct station and his Job
was to cover police cases.

ing place of the reporters
from the various papers. Du.
rockers establishment was a
small, Seedy-looking shop, the
kind which have long since
been superseded by the modern
"parlorS.
Durocker was not an enter
pr1Slng business man and
practically all his income was
derived from the newspapers
whose reporters used his place
as a hang-out.

Of Uttered desks, on the wall

about were several old battered

Just then the telephone bell
rang. O'Reilly answered.
"It's for you, Dale" Robin
Dale took the receiver and got
the message. He hung up and
turned to the others, his being

wards she told Cathie, That
suit needs pressing. You could
do with another to keep them
both fresh. A rich mans wife
like you'll"
Cathie could have cried. It
wasn't the same any more. She
couldn't explain it, but she felt
it. Ma was as darling as ever,
but she kept reminding her that
she was married-and rich. She
wouldn't even let her wash the
dishes after lunch. "No, Cath.e,
don't be foolish now move
away. What would Mr.. Fans
worth say? Spelling your
handS!"
And before Ruth could be
back from school she shooed
her home. Mr.. Farnsworth
might come home from the
office early and find her gone,
she ought to be there, wait
ing.
Rich But Lonely
So Cathie started back, be.
fore she had said any of the
things she wanted to say, be-
fore she wanted to 60. Mrs.
HenneSSy raped on the win
dow as she passed. and waved
2 gnarled hand, then vanished
behind the lace curtains.
Cathie knew what she was
thinking. =. "Ha, Cathie Paige
may have a wedding license,
but my Lillian has her own
motor car" and she knew that
Ma was sorry that she hadn't
come in the big blue car, with
Everett driving, just to show
old Mrs. HennesSy. "Ill come
in the car next time," she
thought. I'm glad I really
like Mr.. FarnSworth, I mean
Alfred because it isn't such
fun to be rich. It makes you
too lonely. -"
That evening a queer thing
happened. She had gone to
her room to dress. There was
a faint tap at the door, and
then it opened. The woman,
Marguerite, stood there. II
may as well help you, since
he's too tight to get you q
proper maid" she said Sullenly.
When Cathie drew back in.
voluntarily, clutching her dress
ing gown tight about her, the
woman drew nearer and
pressed her into the chair be-
fore the dressing table on which
cleaned the silver and blue bot
ties, and the turquoise backed
brushes and mirrors.
All 'True Blue
"Sit down." she said almost
roughly, Il won't hurt you. I
can do as well as any lady'S
maid. I did it for her
the first lady, and she was no
easy one to please"
While Cathie still heSitated,
startled by her strange look and
the growing certainty that the
woman had been watching her,
not only now, but perhaps
many times before through the
keyhole, she brought her white,
scanned face nearer and touched
Cathie'S bare shoulder with a
strange, careSSing motion. You
needn't be afraid" she said in
a whisper, "the Farnsworth
ladies have all been true blue,
and I see you're another"
She picked up the brush and
began to brush Cathie'S hair
with long, rhythmical strokes.
Something outside herself.
something that she could not
seem to control, put the words
into Cathie's mouth:
"And the FarnsWorth men,
aren't they true blue, too?"
Three generations I've
known" the woman said softly,
"and one no better than the
other"
