DUT that way. it seemed the most

the world. Susan drew a deep
breath and held up her head again.

grateful for her escape from danger
and she put that gratitude into her

The gray day was brighter be-
cause a young girl smiled at them.

Susan did not try to explain the
glorioug sense Of freedom and re-
l.ase which had come to her that
morning when Waring had brought
her the good news.
It was enough just to be safe and
secure. She no longer seemed i'm
patient for good times.

and said excitedly. Have lunch

Susan began 10 explain that she

was a streak of mascara under one

Ray tossed her head and Susan
could see a tear glistening on her
lashes.
"A person talks" Ray said thickly
and unsteadily. "A person says

Susan hated to look at her. She
did not need to look to know that
Ray was crying openly.

She was shocked beyond words at

Four young men, who attempt- cd to ''crash the gate" at basket ball game in St Joseph's auditor ium last evening. were given a warning in police court this morn ing that Is likely to be passed out to other youngsters In that neigh borhood. The accused quartet, charged with breach of the peace. included Albert Semetas, IS. of SIS Bank street: John Salenus, lS, or % Lawrence street; Ralph Valen. stIvicius, 23, of 19 Charles, street, and Charles Semetas, 23. of slv Bank street.

The chance discovery of a bud ding fire undoubtedly saved the residence of Charles A. Jackson of 25 Hillside avenue from serious damages and the fire department from responding to n call at 1850 this morning. A Christmas candle. which evidently had been permit ted to burn all night had eaten n hole into table placed close to one of the windows of the home. The covering on the table had caught fire and the tiny flames which att. tracted the attention of two policc- men, were menacing curtain when discovered. 1t would only have been a case of few seconds when the curtains and draperies would have caught fire and ob- tained q headway before discov- cred. Members of the family were asleep on the upper floor of the house. but were aroused by the hammering of the policemen upon the front door. The smouldering covering was tossed into the yard and the badly scorched and smok- ing table removed to a safe place on the veranda.
 Patrolmen Joseph Petit of the police motor patrol and Carl Hes- pelt, whose beat includes that sec- tion of Hillside avenue, made the discovery as they met near the in tersection of Hillside avenue and Prospect street.

 The court made 1t very plain that if any of the four or their friends repeat last evenings dis turbing performance they would likely be kept busy working for sometime paying fines.
 Tn contrast to the four who tried to walk in without paying, the case of William Dreskevicus, 32, of Lawrence street. presented the oth- CT side of the picture. He was arr rested for attempting to walk out without paying. He partly suc- cceded in accomplishing the feat in a restaurant, but not in police court. He was fined $5 and costs for intoxication and given sus- pended sentence for attempting to defraud a restaurant. It was his expla nation that he thought he had a quarter when he entered tho restaurant for cup of coffee. He became embarrassed to discov- CT that he had lost the coin and could find no one to believe him or stake him to the price of tife java.

MUSSOLINI TO
 CONSOLIDATE
 INDUSTRIALS
Italian Premier Proposes to Form Into Organiza- tiOns Similar to Ameri- can Trusts
By THOMAS B. MORGAN

United Press Stan COrrespOndent)
 Rome, Dec 3O.-(UP)-Premier Benito Mussolini plans consolida- ton of Italian industry into indus- trial organizations similar to American trusts in m effort to speed up large scale production and eliminate un-economic competition, the United Press was informed to- day.
 The fascist economic scheme thus is in contrast to that of the United States, where the cry always has been against the trust, but there is the important difference that the huge Italian concerns will be partly controlled by the state. Already, government representa- lives from the ministry of corpora tions sit with the board of direc- tors of important firms.
 Mussolini intends to make com mon cause with monopoly as q sound economic principle. Tho fas- cfst regime encourages monopolies with laws favoring continuation of the healthiest concerns.
 Consolidation of the Italian steamship companies furnished an example of what is planned in in- dustrial fields. The three companies which were merged Lloyd Sabaudo, Navigazione Generate, and Cosulich--will be relieved of the heavy overhead of running three separate lines. The three New York offices will be combined under the direction of Joseph Cosu- lich, grandson of Antonio Cosulich, founder of the Cosulich Line. and agent for the line in tho United States.
 Fifty two per cent of the coun- try's industrial workers are em- pioyed in average and Every large" plants, the latter classi1ica- tion given plants employing over 1000 men. Ninety per cent of tex tile workers are employed in large" and "vetry large" plants. It is Mussolini's idea to encourage large scale production instead of the small workshop which cannot compete in the world markets.
 The Fiat Motor company, the largest single establishment in Italy, employs over 30.00O men. The entire plant Is In the city of Turin. Other large establishments are found in the silk industry and textile trades. Employment is at a new high in shipbuilding and marine.

DEFICIT FOUND
 IN FINANCES OF
 CITY OF REVERE
Overdrawn Accounts and UncOIlected Revenues Two Officials Make Good

Boston. Dec 30-CC. P.) - A deficit of more than $1OO.O0O in overdrawn departmental accounts and uncolIected revenues has been uncovered in the finances of the city of Revere through an investi- gation by the state division of ac- counts.
 Report of the audit Of the city's financial affairs, made public last night by Chief Examiner Edward H. Fenton. disclosed q shortage of nearly $4,500 in the accounts of City Treasurer James c. O'Brien. This amour. already has been re- paid by O'Brien. Another shortage of approximately $1,500 was discov- cred in the accounts of City Col iector Ernest Acker. This also Is to be repaid.
 Fenton said the shortages were doubtless due to n general mix-up In the city's financial affairs rather than intentional wrong doing by :he two officials. Other items in- cluded in the deficit were $55. 1858 tied up in the closed Revere Trust Company. uncollected license fees and water bills, and $30,00O in overdrawn accounts. Mayor An- drew A. Casassa. to whom the re- port was submitted. said he re- garded the criticism levelled at the city as constructive.
