CHAPTER 16. SUSPICIOUS HOSPITALITY

Somehow, to Nancy's relieved amazement, another breathleSs day had dragged through the haggard hours without bloodshed.
 Mallory, bandaged and looking very sick, had remained indoors, glowering over one highball after another. Hamilton had been en- grossed, as usual, in his intermin- able Garfield. Martin and Will Hams, vague, inoffensive figures, drifted like restless wraiths in and out of the rooms. Nancy's scalp frightened and pricked whenever she looked into their eyes, such depths of misery and madness were reflected there. Lucci and Ashwood had discussed business intermittently without, apparently, reaching an entente cordiale.
 A faint whisper of cool wind rattled the dry palm leaves as the livid sun dived unceremoniously beneath the hard line of the hor : izon.
 Ashwood, lounging indolently a dozen feet away, was watching the kaleidoscopic play of colors with an appreciative eye. Suddenly, how ever, he sat bolt upright, gazing fixedly across the mile-wide stretch

twice many as were cast for Smith four years ago and Smiths vote was the largest every boiled by any Democrat in that State up to this year.
 His strength is not confined to any single dis trict. This amply proved by the wide dfssemina- tion of votes cast for him in convention. On the first ballot he received the undivided vote from 40, a majority in two others and plurality in another out of total of 55 delegations present. In only 12 was he a minority candidate, and most of these were represented by favorite sons Seldom has any candidate where there nine active contenders, made such an impressive showing of basic strength.
 There be no doubt on the strength of that showing that Gov Roosevelt is the choice of great majority of the Democratic Party That he will make a real candidate in every sense of the word cannot be gansaid. And, if successful he will give to the country in of it's trying periods, a quality of leadership that it sorely needs. The convention faithfully carried out the wishes of the party in nominating him.

 I'm not sure that I like your tone" observed Jerry, deliberately. But since I'm already indebted to you, I'll explain. I was pad ding my boat along the inner passage behind the chain of islands over there when she sprunk leak. She was loaded pretty heavily and sank like a stone. I managed to swim ashore, but couldn't save a thing except the clothes was in"
 How unfortunate, murmered the cripple sympathetically.

He clapped his hands, after the eastern custom, and servant appeared. This is new guest Alfred" explained Ashwood, easily Find him a room and some dry clothes. By the way, it might be well if we learned your name We are, as you will presently observe very informal in our dealings with one another, but we do not go about calling each other Hay and l You"
 Permit me, then to introduce myself as Walter Peabody, of New York" bowed Jerry.
 "A delightful name, I'm sure, smiled Ashwood affably. May ] introduce you to our guests? You will know them, I trust, quite well before you depart. This beautiful young lady you may recognize Miss Nancy Wentworth"

But his tanned face-a little i'm pudent, perhaps-had carefree reskless something in it which gave him a distinction not to be gained by mere good looks.
 The girls heart gave sudden bound She knew she had seen that careless grin before. The twinkling gray eyes, as they swept over the row of people lining the rail, hesitated briefly as they met her gaze, then passed on. She knew now. The boy who had asked for lift on the Merrick road. Her lflash of intuition had, then, been right; he was in the vanguard of the rescuing party. It could hard ly be that he had failed to rec ognize her. So she gazed straight at him with an unmoved express sion, betraying not the slightest sign that she had ever seen him before
 Greetings, greetings, my friend same AShwood's lazy voice. What is responsible for this delightful visit?"
 Jerry gazed at him with aston ishment Surely this harmless looking cripple could not be leader of a band of Kidnapping despera- doesl It would be that battered, saturnine person on the right of the powerful built bandaged fellow on the other side of the girl. Yet as soon as the old-young man had spoken the guards fell back to a discreet distance, where they re- mained, watchful, awaiting further instructions.
 Sorry to have butted in like this,' replied the flier, dolefully, My boat sank and left me all wet, so to speak"
 ''Indeed?" Ashwood's voice was mildly satirical. "A boat, eh? had expected to hear you had come here in search of a telephone to

ROOSEVELT WINS EASILY.

Franklin D. Roosevelt, Governor of New York, is the choice of Democracy for President Of the United States The representatives of that party Tn convention in Chicago last night, gave him an over whelming majority 946 votes out of possible ll54 on the fourth ballot of the convention and the frst of Fridays session. The outcome was not surprise in any sense of the word. He has been the leading candidate for the honor of leading his party in this years national election since late last year. His position was so commanding at the outset of the year that all rivals joined in futile drive to head him off For months now this anti-Roosevelt cam paign has been in progress. Far in the van he was the target for all attacks, is always the case where there is keen competition for political pre- ference He took the drive in good part, maintained his even temper and good nature and at no time lost the dignity that is characteristic of him.
 His attitude under fire from other party leaders was but another evidence of his innate bgness, and his fitness for the office to which his party now seeks to elevate him. There few who question that fitness He has a long and unsurpassed record as a public servant. AS State Senator in New York, then Assistant Secretary of Navy under Josephus Daniels in the administration Of Woodrow Wilson and finally as Governor of New York, his record is unassailable.
 He has shown marked ability to grasp problems and solve them He has proved the high quality Of his leadership on more than occasion. He is
  of the Democratic Party that includes Alfred E. Smith his chief rival for the nomination this year and nominee four years ago; Newton D. Baker, Wilson's great War Secretary; Owen D. Young; Albert c. Ritche, Marylands great Chief Executive; John Nance Garner, Speaker of the House of Rep resentatives; James A. Reed MssouriS favorte son; John w Davis and others almost notable.
 Several of these were rivals for the nomination, and his victory due in some measure to the fact that majority of Democrats in the nation feel that he is available than any of the others mentioned. He has proved beyond any possibility of doubt that he is a vote-getter, demonstrating that capacity when he first entered New York State politics, and proving he still retained it when he was elected Governor in 1928 and in the many Presidential primaries held during the current year He carried New York State in 1928 when Alfred E Smith lost it to Hoover, circumstance that mmed- lately marked him Presidential timber AS an instance of his popularity away from home, in Wis consin few weks ago. he received more than 100000 votes in the preferential primary election

It must have been real disappointment to those political forecasters who had vsioned embattled Democratic Convention in Chicago for many days, rvang possibly the Madison Square Garden affray in 1924 to have Gov. Roosevelt nominated on the fourth ballot without any of the bitter factional strife that had been predicted

FOURTH OF JULY.

Next Monday marks the 156th anniversary Of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This year in most years since that historic occasion, July Fourth will be celebrated with parades, orations athletic contests and more or less restricted ex- posions of fireworks. But at present, to a greater degree than in the past these traditional methods of observance will be subordinated to serious sideraton of economic depression that prevails throughout the nation and of social problems that press for solution in the interest of orderly gov ernment.
 To revive trade restore industry and rehabilitate agriculture, labor in city and country will have employment at remunerative wages perplex the best minds both in and out of legislative halls. To dispose of the intoxicating liquor question crime deprived of it's wealth of illicit returns cannot defy the representatives and the processes of law enforce ment puzzles political leaders, and is certain to be a principal if not the paramount issue of the approaching Presidential campaign.
 The times out of joint compared with the eras of prosperity that have been comprised by most of the years since the Declaration of Inde pendence. Yet conditions now infinitely better than the situation then.
 Laws not imposed and rescinded at the will of distant tryant large bodies of armed troops not quartered among us, not plundered our coasts not ravaged, towns are not burned and the lives of inhabitants not de- stroyed at the dictates of a cruel and powerful ruler. These the evils abuses and outrages that not only impoverished the people but also menaced their existence l56 years ago.
 For demonstrating against such wrongs the sign CTS of the Declaration of Independence and their families were prescribed by royal decree, and re- wards of 800 pounds offered for their appre- hension
 The of living has been greatly changed by discoveries and inventions Now knowledge is more widely diffused than formerly. What are re- garded necessities and comforts today were not even dreamed of as luxuries yesterday. l While life is more complex, still the principles for its guidance as simple, or rather the same as before. Honesty, intelligence and courage are indispensable, always. When they marshaled with such ferven patriotism inspired our fore fathers to risk their lives and fortunes for inde- pendence, problems, however grave can resist solution.
 Fourth of July should serve to recall to us the inestimable benefits of liberty, hard won and to remind that while love of country endures nc i'll can long persist without a remedy

of iridescent water toward the sand bordering the nearest island to the east. He rose, shrilled his pecul- jar whistle and pointed across to where etched in black against the tinted background of sand, stood solitary figure, waving a white handkerchief.
 Instantly, it seemed, a swift motorboat, manned by crew of three, dashed out of the camou- flaged dock and headed across the channel. Lucci, Mallory, Wilson and Martin emerged from the house to stand lined up at the porch rail, watching the speeding boat in ex- pectative silence, speculating in- wardly upon the meaning of the stranger in the lives of those on the kidnappers' island The mo- hogany boat coasted up to the op- posite shore, the three men leaped out on the beach and, after a brief barley with the newcomer. took him aboard and returned with him to the boathouSe.
 As the lone man, surrounded by the three guards, walked toward the house, Nancy became aware of an intuitive certainty this was not a casual wayfarer, but a messen- ger from those of the outside world who were interested in the rescue He had been in the water, that much was evident, for his clothes clung wetly to his muscular figure

WOODC0CK FIGHTS
SENATE BEER BILL
Appears Before Committee
to Voice Opposition to
Bingham Measure.
BY the Associated P>sss.

BY the Associated P>sss.
Opposition to proposals to legalize
beer and the belief that prohibition en-
forcement is increasing in efficiency
were expressed today before Senate
Committee by Prohibition Director
Woodcock.
In response to question by Chair
man Metcalf of the committee, Wood
cock said he thought the fight against
liquor-laW violations could be made
more effective than it is now. He add
ed that his bureau was operating with
only half the personnel recommended
by the Wickersham Commission.
Woodcock said he had asked for 500
additional agents for the next fiscal
year, but that his request had been re-
fused because of the condition Of Gov
ernment finances.
Metcalf had asked him if he thought
prohibition could be enforced.
The Rhode Island Senator cited fig
ureS which he said showed that If every
one who drinks a cocktail in this Coun-
try were sent to jail, the average would
be 300 sentences per year for every per-
son in the country.
IF you arrested every one who vio-
lateS a speed law" Woodcock replied
would be larger"
The committee has before it bill by
Senator Bingham. Republican, Connec-
ticut. to legalize 4 per cent beer.
Woodcock expressed the belief that
it would lead to return of the saloon.
DIR. Morgan Testifies.
DR.. Gay Elmer Morgan of the Ma
tional Education Association testified
educational conditions had greatly i'm
proved since prohibition.
Only nine out of 3l2 college presi-
dents to whom he had sent question
naires, he said, had any doubt that
conditions have improved"
He praised enforcement under Di
rector Woodcock.
Four per cent beer. DR.. Morgan said,
affects the central nervous system and
would greatly increase the number of
automobile accidents" adding, more
children today are killed by automobile
accidents than all other causes COM
bined."
College Conditions.
After extensive travels he said he
had reached the conclusion that con-
ditions among the students by and large
are infinitely better than they were
before"
Reports of drinking in schools and
colleges he added have been greatly
magnified"
The witness said 81 900, 900 spent In
educating the public On the value of
law observance would have more value
than Sl0000,000 spent on the police
side"
IF you'll give us 10 years more" he
said, there won't be any question in
any ones mind"
