 Flique smiled indulgently. Mon sieur does not understand. Le Balafre and Ciceron Bee are not given the sentence of death.T h. stead they are to go to lille du Diable until life is finished. Per- haps they will escape. And if they do their fingers will itch for what is left of those million francs, and they will burn like ten suns for the throat of Jules Lacote. Messieurs," Flique's voice became a whisper, mot for all the francs on earth would I be the betrayer of le Bala- ire and Ciceron Bee now they have escaped! And now, M le Deputy, do you perceive why these little ones did not describe to me that infamous Lacote?"
 I was glad I was not Jules La cote.

SYNOPSIS: Who murdered Dan Parados? His symbol of luck, a jade phoenix, disappear ed shortly before his death. Everyone on his lonely island estate is questioned. Motives are plentiful, for Parados was hated by all, but fruitful clews are few. Allan Hunt seeks some evidence on his own account. He finds newspaper with oil stains on it-perhaps from . gun. Claude Annersley had been seen with a similar paper, yet his alibi is good. AnatOle Flique, a French detective, and Sam uels deputy attorney, are baf- fled. On a rose Flique finds blood stains which are traced by a handkerchief to Grainger, a hired man. The detectives wonder if Grainger is shielding Annersley.

real estate holdings have increased marketing is sometimes difficult. It is during just such periods that agriculture is in the greatest need of reservoir of credit at reason able rates"
 Other propose amendments would make it possible for expenses of the federal farm loan board to be met in the same manner as those of the federal reserve board are met, define more clearly what constitutes farm unit and permit greater spread than one per cent on certain classes of loans, the excess to go to reserve fund for the purpose of stabilizing interest rates.
 The first of these latter propo- sals, the farm groups say, would relieve the banks of considerable expense and enable them to in- crease their service to farmers.
 The second, they say, would be of benefit to the operators of small farms in poultry and truck territory

Urges Judicious Use
of Air Mail Service

Washington. = Judicious use
of the ir nil service is urged
by Postmaster General Walter
Il. Brown, who does not approve
, the "bally-hoo campaign de-
signed to influence the public
to make all mailing by air."
"Our reasons are two," Brown
said. First, nromiscueus use
, of the air mail service is not
good business for the mailer;
) and second, it is not good busI-
ness for the department"
) He estimated that So per cent
of the mail carried does not re-
quire extraordinary speed, and
pointed out that in many cases
a letter sent by air mail be-
J, tween nearby points, or be-
tween many points not on an
air mail line, will go just as
quickly by train.
The advantage of sending bust
ness mail between distant points
by air was emphasized by the
postmaster general, who said
that interest on millions of dol
lars was being saved by banks
and other institutions In clear
ing their items by air mail.
ut costs the department 1881
a pound to transport air mail
from Boston to Los Angeles"
Mr.. Brown said. "If each air
mail letter weighed full ounce
our gross revenue for the trans
portation of a pound Of mail
would be 16 times 5 cents, or
so cents.
THUS on the transportation of
pound of mail from Boston to
Los Angeles the government
would lose $S.0i. lot taking into
consideration the cost of collect
Ing the mail at the points of
origin and the cost Of distrib-
uting it at the points of de-
livery"
ANY increase In the volume of
air mail, Brown pointed cut. In
creases the governments loss
proportionately.
