CHEATING
BY BRUCE BARTON

foolish ! am to let this thing
worry me. This man has cheated
me out Of a few hundred dollars,
but what q petty thing that is
compared with the way he has
cheated hinnselfI All his life he
has held q nickel so close to his
eyes that he couldn't see a dol
lar. All his life he has lived on
alibis, watching the clock, steal
ing q little here and there from
his employers, and imagins that
he was doing we'll for himself.
"And where is he at 60? Poor
and jobless, and q failure. Reap.
ing what he has sown,"
The old idea of heaven and
hell was very bad because il
made US think that our reward
or punishment 10 coming Is us in
some far.off place hereafter.
In the same way most people
nnisinterpret the verse in TIE
Bible which reads: ~Bs sure
your sin will find you out"
They say: Lots Of people sin
and are never found out. There.
fore the verse 10 untrue"
But the verse does not say
that your sin will be found out.
1t says, "Be sure your sin will
find you out"-he sure that il
will settle down in your heart
and mould you in its own image.
That's a terrifying thought, or
q very encouraging one, accord
ing TO the way you live. Every
thing you do has it's influence
on what you are.
When you cheat you cheat
yourself. And whatever you do
that's decent automatically and
inevitably builds you up.

SEEK COMPROMISE
ON SHIP STRENGTH

By United Press
LONDON, Feb. 14.--Demands of
France and Japan occupied naval
conference delegates today while
they attempted to bring the stated
naval requirements of those coun-
tries toward harmony with the views
of the United States and Britain.
Before the delegates scattered for
the usual weekend rest, the chief
delegates of Britain, America and
France met at st. James palace and
discussed the French demands as
presented Thursday in memoran-
dunn setting forth a formidable
naval program.
While the discussion was in gen.
eral terms on the French program,
it was not revealed whether any
progress was made towards con-
ciliating the high French demands
with the view points OF other
powers.
The conference subcommittee of
experts also met and unanimously
confirmed provisional agreement
reached at Geneva in 1927 concern
ing the exemption of smaller classes
of ships such as the United States
rum chaSerS.
The most important development
in connection with Japan's state
menC of her position was the
revelation that two proposals had
been submitted to the American
delegation regarding limitation Of
auxiliary ships.

Mrs. j. F. Hornaday, chairman of

Communist pamphlets, Socialist

mere liberal idea tracts have been
brought to Ogden's Office and home
and the super-patriots have urged
him to save Hoosierdom.
Remembers Probe
But the encouragement is wary
Last January he listened to similar
Red" reports and conducted a
secret investigation at Bicknell. All
he found was that miners out of
work for months grow disconnected,
that the so-called Red" union had
a small membership among those
who were weary of the leadership Of
President John L. Lewis of the
United Mine Workers of America.
There seemed no immediate
danger of revolution which would
turn Hocsierdom over to the Soviets,
Ogden admitted. He felt the results
discouraging from the standpoint Of
Red baiters, but highly compli-
mentary to the loyalty of American
miners.
To Continue Policy
Thus far his policy is to continue
to acknowledge receipt of the let
tiers from the Daughters of the
American Revolution and others,
and he indicated today that 1t is
likely to continue that policy.
