ance that DR.. Warren F. Draper. as
sistant surgeon general Of the United
States Public Health Service, will be

After the post was offered DR.. Draper
recently it developed that not only
would DR.. Hugh Cumming, his imne-

being assigned TO the Virginia position,
but the Treasury Department would
have to give its sanction as WELL DR..
Cumming has already signifed that he
is in favor OF the assignment. but the
has yet to be obtained. Delay in this
connection has been due to the fact
that Secretary Mellon is abroad.
Dr. Draper was here yesterday in
conference with Gov. Pollard about the
matter. He is not being asked to sever
his connection with the United States
Public Health Service. If he did that
it would mean sacrifice of his rank as

tirement pay rights.
He is no stranger here, having been
on assignment with the Virginia Health

ately following the World War. Al

SYNOPSIS: The run a way marriage of Sam Sherrill and Freddy MunsCn is abruptly halted when Sam leaving her hcme, finds a note from her half brother Nielsen saying he is marrying their maid, Martha Givers. Sam worries most keen ly about the resultant loss of social standing, because of her ctcpfather, Fourth Aldersca, be- Iioves in strict class distinction. Nelson has taken with him the money that Fourth has borrow cd to pay a mortgage interest. Sam feels responsible for the finances of her family, which is enc reascn why she has previ- ousiy considered marrying Peak Abbott. Abbott, the wealthy owner of the Express, fer which Sam and Freddy work, is will ing to marry Sam without her loving him. Sam is stunned by NClsGn's note, and in a daze she takes off her travelling clothes and starts to get Alder sca's dinner.

wandered over to the other side Of the room and mechanically began Q rearrange magazines on the top of table. She wondered duly what would happen next.
 Fourth laughed, at last, almost naturally. Tt isn't true, of course"
 Sam turned about and shook her lead. Its true"
 No" said Fourth flatly and without emotion. There's some mistake. No son of mine would dis grace himself and me by marry ing-a servant girl'
 T know how you feel" said Sam softly. but the thing is done.'
 Fourth looked at her imperson- ally, as though she were a strang- er.
 How do you know?" he demand d coldly. What proof have you?"
 T have a letter from Nelson that l found when I came home this afternoon. He said"
 Get the letter" Fourth ordered calmly. T want to read it."
 She hesitated. Then she went up to her room and got the letter. She handed it to Fourth without a word and returned once more to the magazines
 Her sense of hearing seemed ab- normally acute She heard the rus .le of paper as Fourth carefully took the letter from it's envelope. She heard the faint ticking of he clock on the mantle and the slow "Trip of water from the tap in the kitchen. She was instantly aware, also of a car that turned off the main road and started up the drive to the stable.
 Someone is coming" she said calmly. Probably to see me. I'll talk to him outside"
 With both hands Fourth was holding Nelson's letter under the reading lamp. He did not answer.
 It was Freddy, as Sam had ex- pected. He swung out of the taxi almost before it had come to a stop. Sam noticed as he came strid- ing toward where She was stand ing on the front step, that he was wearing a new suit. He had a new overcoat, too and new hat.
 Sam said: Well have to talk out here, Freddy. Let's go around the corner of the house where we can be alone.'
 They went around the corner of the house and came to a stop un- der one of the lighted living room windows, Sam could see Freddy's face clearly and could tell that he was angry. He was making an ef- fort to control himself.
 What is Frcddy's accusation,
 tomorrow? Sam makes up her mind about marriage.

MISTAKE OR DISGRACE:

Some time later the telephone began to ring. It rang briefly and authoritatively, but Sam did not even look up from her work. She was vaguely aware that it must be Freddy who was calling and that she probably owned him some sort of explanation, but she felt curi- ously incapable of speech. She felt incapable of every hing except peeling potatoes, which asked no questions and were smooth and cool in her hands.
 Possibly potatoes were numb all over, and very tired, and did not care to be bothered with queS- tions. She could understand that, fThe telephone continued to ring. Its commands were no longer short and confident, but had cnanged to dogged appeals for attention. It seemed possible that they might go on forever, and so, when Sam dropped the last potato in the pct of water boiling on the stove, she carefully dried her hands and walked slowly into the living room.
 The small suburban directory on top of the big blue city one provid- cd just what she needed. Togeth- CT they were thick enough to re- move the weight of the receiver from it's hook and quiet the clam or of the bell. The instrument con- tinued to buzz and mutser angrily for a few moments, but then was still. Sam nodded but returned to the kitchen.
 Fourth banged the front door heavily behind him when he came in. He always banged the front door, just as he always shouted Sam's name immediately after ward. It was a habit, like Nelson's buttoning his vest on the front stairs. This time Sam did not an swer his call. She intended to an

DEBTORS ARE PUT TO WORK
 TO PAY BILLS
Hard Hearted Broadway Hotel Management Has
 Adopted New System
By William Gaines

NEW YORK; hostelry hard by hardhearted Broadway is putting it's guests to work when the bills go too long overdue.
 Since the debtors have nowhere else to go, they don't seem to be moaning much; they will have a roof over their heads until their services as clerks, mechanics or in other lines make up for their in- debtedness.
 The hotel manager happens to have some rooms to spare, and so he figures he is working an econ omy on labor.
 One of the inmates of this place is a Broadway columnist.
 He tottered in at one of the a. ms one week and who should the night clerk be but a guest who had a room near his. This fellow had been busted from another sort of clerical position by one of those employers doing his bit to make the depression a suc- cess.
 Four hours later, when the col- umnist was right in the middle of his sleep, an electrician invaded his room and announced that he was sorry, but certain rewiring must be done immediately.
 The columnist thought he recog- nized another guest.
 He got up and took some fizzy headache stuff, and saw that, sure enough, it was another guest.

 One of the sardonic Simon Le- grees and heartless confederate hied themselves to a shooting gall lery, put coin into one of those ccntraptions, and pushed the neces- sary letter keyes and clutches.
 The result was a half dollar size medal, with the words "Gripe Cham pen" and the spleenish fellows name spelled around a hollowed out star embossed with the American flag.
 The award was made next morn ing with due ceremony and unani- nous approval.
