Vivienne was on edge the night Of Aileen's debut. She would have given anything to be in New York, and not for the world would she miss a note when Aileen began to sing. If Aileen could become a favorite of the air, Vivienne's sense of personal blame in a meas ure would be tempered.
 The night before sine had tried the radio she had bought on the installment plan for just one pur- pose She envied Charming and

 He stopped at Vivienne's ges- ture, but he stood there calmly waiting for her to ask him in.
 Perhaps" he suggested mean ingly, as he sensed the situation you'd rather go out and chat with me over bite of supper? If you would, I'd be glad to wait"
 Thank you" she answered cold ly. Won't you sit down mo- ment? I'll be ready right away.
 Don't trouble" he said, as her eyes sought a chair. I'll wait for you in the entry" He made her an ironic bow and started down the stairs.
 With her last hope of hearing Aileen gone, Vivienne went to her room. Bravely she put on her hat and coat, but her fingers trembled as she used her lipstick. Of course she knew why Kronberg had come, but just what was it he wanted? She had no idea what he meant to do. Nevertheless she was cer- tain that he meant to punish her.
 Her thoughts raced back to the night when his touch, and all that he had said. had driven her to fury. It was as though she felt his fingers pressing her flesh again. felt herself striking and clawing at him-and then that woman had come.
 Vivianne was nos exactly afraid, but she was trying her best to de- eide how to handle him. He could not be going to turn her over to the police. He would not have come for that, yet the man was perfectly capable of devising some sure method of exacting his re- venge.
 I'm going out a little while" She paused by the landlady's door.
 Well, I am sure it's no affair of mine!" said Mrs. Perkins. "Of[ course you understand that I never | permit my guests to receive gen. | ,lemen in their rooms"
 Vivienne gave her look of con- 5empt and went on down the hall.
 Whether or not she came back that night, she would leave the place in the morning. The woman was insufferable, had been all the 5vening. This simply capped the climax.
 But the thought that she might not come back that night dis ,urbed her as she closed the door md went slowly down the stairs. If only Jimmy-or Channing-Were here! She knew no one in the ,ity to whom she dared tell her story
 Well, since she'd brought this on herself, there was nothing to do put face it.

STRANGE HEARST TALK

All who read Hearst newspapers know that their edi- toral policy generally quite demagogc In their pro- fessed zeal for the welfare of the dear people they usually advocate soaking the interests and the socaled trusts without mercy.
 But listen to this from an editorial published in Hearst's New York American of October 26:
 One of the most useful contributions Congress such revision system as would do most to hearten business quicken spirit prise.
 Obviously scheme punitive taxation, in- in the already corporation taxes would serve only to deepen the depression
 On the other hand, plan
 ing such rates would the breath spring executives help psychological back ground for trade improvement"
 Now that IS strange talk coming from Hearst but 1t IS just what most fairnded persons have been contend ing all along. If the larger business and industrial enter pses taxed and regulated to the point where reason able profits impossible capital for expansion and i'm provements becomes more difficult to obtain
 There Is doubt that excessive taxation and exces sve regulation are responsible for many of present economic ills It seems that 1t is about time for our legis ators to give business and industry respite from fur ther harassmen and allow them to work out their prob lems with minimum of governmental interference.
 Without great and prosperous business enterprises we can have no great payros and without great payros have satisfactory measure of general prosper 1ty So, for once, we can whole-heartedly endorse Hearst editorial the substance of which is: Give business rest and an opportunity to get it's feet once more 
 The announcement that Hoover and Laval under stand each other indicates that the President has i'm proved his French and Laval talk English with his hands in his pockets
 They might as we'll cease crying for disarmament The Sheiks and Shebas just won't stand for it.

Co-Ed's Letters Keep
Gin Murder Suspect
From Going Bats

By United Press
VALPARAISO, Ind, Jan. 27.-
v Daily letters from a prominent
coed in an Ohio college and visits
from his mother, are all that keep
him from going bats" in his Jail
cell these long winter nights, Virgil
Kirkland, Gary youth charged with
the murder of his girl friend at a
gin party, said today.
Kirkland's correspondence with
the coed, whose identity he shield
ed, was revealed when guards
searched his cell and found the let
tiers, smuggled by friend.
81 met her in Gary last year"
kirkland said, "and we both fell
head over heels in love. Anyway,
I felt that way. And the way she
has stuck by me in this terrible af-
fair shows she must like me pretty
WELL
"She has promised to come and
testify for me when my trial is
called sometime next month. even
though told her not to. Her folks
are very prominent and she is high
in sorority circles, too.
at is this faith and comfort, and
the sight of my mother which keeps
me from going to pieces. The days
aren't so bad-but the terrible, long,
cold nights! They almost drive me
crazy"
U IRELAND clenched his fists and
IN shook his head as he said this.
He reiterated his statement that
he was not guilty of the death of
Arlene braves, 18-year-old high
school girl, with whom he went to
the gin party.
Arlene knew liked her well, but
didn't love her." Kirkland said, "she
knew about my other girl.
"And I say again, that while we
had what some people call wild
time at the party, it was just like
almost every -other party that is
held nowadays.
If Arlene hadn't died there would
be nothing said about it"
Kirkland said that for two months
preceding the fatal gin party, he
had kept company with the Ohio
COED, and never had touched liquor
when with her.
II loved her and didn't drink
when with her, because she didn't
like it. That was enough reason for
me-" he said.
THE state has indicated it will
Il demand the death penalty for
Kirkland, who it accuses beat Miss
braves, attacked her and then
called four of his friends to Join
him. The four now are in jail at
Crown Point awaiting trial on a
similar charge.
Kirkland's attorneys obtained
change of venue to Valparaiso. The
court meets here Feb. 2, when his
trial date will be set. It is ex-
pected to be made for Monday,
Feb. 8.
Barratt O'Hara, former lieuten-
ant Governor of Illinois and chief
counsel for Kirkland, said he would
blame prohibition and it's "conse-
quences" for the gin party and its
fateful sequence.

ACE PENSIONINC
BILL UNSCATHED
!. BY REPUBLICANS
Democratic Platform Meas :
ure Upheld in House by
Vote of II to 20.

Few palefaces captured by the
Indians and forced to run the
gantlet experienced the hacking
which the Republican denizens in
the Cherokee strip of the house Of
representatives attempted to in
fiict on the old age pension bill
Monday.
But safely protected by the Demo-
cratic majority the bill was on its
way to engrossment today, none
the worse for its narrowing ex-
periences.
No sooner was the bill handed
down for second reading than the
Republicans rolled up their sleeves
and started the larruping.
Everything was attempted from
changing the administration of the
pension from county commissioners
to the circuit courts to having the
bill include a section which would
take $6,00O,O 900 from the state treas
ury to carry out the provisions Of
the act.
Although they realized that none
of the amendments would be accept
ed, Republican after Republican
proposed some change which either
was indefinitely postponed or tabled
on voice vote, until Representative
Miles Furnas randolph Repub-
lican caucus chairman, who pro-
posed the appropriation, asked for a
roll call vote on that amendment.
The vote was 70 to 20 to table the
amendment, with Republicans
voting against it. Several members
of both parties did not vote.
The fight on the floor was led
by Representative DELPHI L. AIcKes-
son (MarshalD. Democratic floor
leader.

BILL TO MOVE
WOMAN PRISON
IS SIDETRACKED
Indefinite PoStponement
Report Is Adopted
by House.

Effort on the floor Of the house
today to force removal of the In
diana women's prison from Ran
dolph and New York streets to a
rural site lost by an overwhelming
vote as the ways and means CON-
mittee majority recommendation OF
indefinite postponement was &C
cepted.
Branding the present institution a
fire trap, Representative E. Curtis
White Dem, Marion), had moved
to substitute for the majority report
a minority recommendation signed
by Representatives Albert Walsman
Dem, Marion), Charles Y. Poster
Rep., Hamilton), Martin T.
Kruger (Dem., LaPorte), and John
D. T. Bold Oem., Vanderburgh.
Plan New Battle
With hope gone for Intervention
Of the house, proponents Of the re-
moval bill probably will urge Repre-
sentative Russell Dean (Dem., Mar
ion), It's author, to introduce a new
measure calling for an appropria-
ton of only $4,000.
The measure blocked today carried
an appropriation of 100000 for the
purchase of site and erection of
new buildings.
Though unanimous in executive
session that the 100000 appropria-
ton is far too large, members of the
ways and means committee also
agreed on the necessity of removal
and indicated they would look with
favor on another bill with a small
appropriation as a definite step to-
ward pacifying east side residents
who long have fought for removal
of the institution.
Samuel Harrig, secretary of the
East New York Street Civic League,
pointed out to the committee the
danger of a recurrence here of the
Ohio penitentiary fire disaster. He
declared he has been advised by
the state fire marshal that the
women'S prison is fire trap of the
worst type and that it is likely
in event of fire that all of the in
mates would bun to death.
Prison Is OvercrOwded
He declared the prison always Is
crowded and that while IA is the
theoretical capacity, there are now
1913 prisoners and on some occasions
as many as $50 women quartered
there.
Representative Russell Dean
Oem., Marion appeared before the
committee as author of. the bill
and drew a laugh when questioned
on the $4,000 figure of the original
bill.
Whats the basis for your $780,
900 f1gure?" asked Representative
Albert Walsman Den., Marion).
"I've no idea of the cost of re-
moval-the $4,000 figure just
