Work and Boasts.
(NeW York Times.l


 With or without ghostly assistance, Speaker Gar ner has fed to the unsuitable Democratic National Committee which has fed to not highly inter ested country, the accusation that the Republicans trying to hog the glory of all the sound economic and financial measures passed, preparing or pro- posed in Congress. President Hoover won't 'co- operate" He wants to dictate" The Republicans must quit boosting and nagging They have not been loyal to the imposed by necessity and curiously called true" partnership" "coopera- ton" It must be admitted that Republican statesmen have poured out too much of both treacle and vinegar Some of the Lincoln Day orators were lrather comic. But why get excited about it? Why expect intelligence moderation in the crazy months before President is elected?
 Let the Fesses fess and the Watsons watson. Indeed you can't stop them. What could be more absurd than the choice of Henry Allen of Kansas as chief assistant to the head of the Reconstruc- tion Finance Corporation? Henry can be depended upon for breaks" that will entite him to be called la good assistant Democrat. Mir. Hoover was per- haps too eager in recommending to Congress his scheme for the reorganization of the Government. But any plan for that purpose must remain pious hope, unless this Congress has more altruists and saints than its predecessors Mir Garner shoots at la better mark when he derides the unfortunate estimates of the Treasury. He is on impregnable ground when he refers to the conduct and inten- tions of the Democrats in Congress.
 In the House especially, under his guidance, they have begun in good earnest the task of re-estab- fishing the Democratic Party in the confidence of the country. By that work they will be judged. That is what counts All this partisan hullabaloo lis small potatoes. The Democrats have every ad- vantage of position. If they make reasonable use iof the advantage, balance the budget, set the nations finances in order, how can their laurels be prigged by the Republicans? They will have helped to retrieve situation that came under Re- publican administration and falsified Republican prophecy. The prosperity bringers didn't bring. Why mot try Democratic medicine?

the exclusion Of Red and Hubby.
 Now and then Kitty stole a glance at Red Harding. Gar had talked of Red often; he was to Gar in Winton what Phil Corey had been in col lege He seemed older than Gar, of different calibre, sleekly groomed.
 T like Hubby better than Red, 9 Kitty thought impulsively- Hubby, short and plump, as his nickname implied, his slightly vacuous face wreathed in stupid, kindly good humor.
 Gar had directed a waiter to take their orders. This is on me, to- night. We're celebrating"
 Cars face was flushed, glowing. This is the life, Kit, he whispered when he claimed her for a dance. Aren't they good crowdP Happy?"
 And she whispered back that she was happy. But her feet were ach- ing with fatigue and her eyes were growing heavy with the need for sleep.
 When Hubby suggested that they drive out to the Rainbow Gardens to finish the night properly Kitty threw Gar look of agonized en- treaty.
 Leave us out, Tub. Kit isn't used to our pace, yet. We're going home"
 A faint smile, half -pitying, moved Marges lips, not directed at any one in particular for her eyes were carefully lowered. But Kitty saw it and, a little indignantly, read its meaning.
 She forgot it, however, almost at once. The waiter had put check at Cars elbow. Forty-two dollars.

RUSSELL TO
 BE UMPIRE

INDIANAPOLIS, March l9.-Al- bert E. "Reb" Russell is going to have his third fling at baseball.
 At 43, with careers as pitcher and as a hard-hitting out-fielder in the big leagues behind him, he will make his debut this spring as an umpire in the Western league.
 Russell, who broke into baseball in 1909 in the Texas Oklahoma circuit, was leading hurler with the Chicago White Sox from 1913 through the pennant-winning years of l917-19l8.
 Three years in the American As sociation then saw him converted into an outfielder and star hitter, and he was good for two more seasons with Pittsburgh. After that he returned to the assocla- ton, with Indianapolis.

 Gar. wasn't that charge awful?" she asked when they were alone.
 For dinner and the rest? We got off cheap, Kit Tired, sweet? Here. put your head down"
 She put her head on Cars shoul- der but she thought of the forty two dollars
 And when she awakened the next morning, early, she thought of it, half dreading the meeting with Cars father with her conscience so burdened.
 Gar protested at getting up at such a heathenish hour. But she presisted.
 They found Dalton Frew alone at a table in a sunny breakfast room. When they entered he sprang to his feet with an excla- nation of pleasure.
 Hello, Dad" Cars meeting was casual. Wore looking fine.'
 You're looking fine yourself, boy" He dropped Cars hand ot hold his out to Kitty. 50 this is your wife" He scrutinized Kitty in searching, kindly way, his smile indulgent. Gar turned his attention immediately to the break fast table, pulling out a chair for Kitty.
 MT. Frew asked Gar about col lege. Well, you're through, boy" But he did not say anything about Cars job, waiting for him.
 Kitty felt that only part of Dalton Frew's mind was focusing on her and Gar. He was tall built like Gar; in his youth he must have had some of Cars splendid vigor but now his should CTS stopped little, his hair was thing and gray at the temples, his

her promptly that their interrup- tion was most happy.
 Red Harding and Hubby Wilkins appeare as delighted to see Gar as he had been to greet them. Red slipped into the chair next to Kitty md Hubby took the one on the other side.
 The orchestra had begun to play Marge turned to Gar who was next to her, her lips shaping a mute questioning and at once he was 0 l his feet, his hand reaching for hers.
 Red claimed her at once. Shall we do this, Kitty?"
 But it was not like dancing with Gar. Kitty felt self-conscious. She was glad when the music stopped and they went back to the others.
 Diana Close and Marge and Red regaled Gar with the details of what had happened in their set since he'd been away from Winton, while Hubby, with an air of devotion, talked to Kitty in cautious un- dertone.
 "Y'know, I like you. But take it from me, the girls are nuts on your husband. You've got to watch those two. But you just tell me if they go too far"
 In way Kitty was grateful to him for occupying her attention. She still felt shy with Marge and Diana.
 In her evening dress Margery Crosby looked more beautiful than she had on the train that morning. Her black hair lay smoothly close to her head; from it's even fringe to the low line of her gown her skin, olive dark, was waveless. The artificial scarlet of her lips lent audacity to her expression. Beside Marge, Diana Close was colorless, but she had a vivacity of manner that made up for what she lacked in physical charm. She was cen tering that vivacity now on Gar to

The Peddler Nuisance.
(Miami News.)

The unlicensed peddler nuisance continues in Miami without abatement Appeals to the City Commission by merchants who pay their taxes and their license fees, helping Miami all the year, have brought no relief Certainly there is no need to debate the right of such pedders to operate Tolera ton of such practice is inexcusable at all times, and particularly at a time when our own merchants need all the support that can be given by con- munity reduced in purchasing power.
 There must be vigorous action by our officials not only to enforce the present laws but to take whatever steps are necessary to protect the bus- ness interests that cannot be disassocated from the municipal corporations own welfare.
 More than this can be done, however if the public lonce realizes that the interest of the buyer well las the home merchant is involved. Too often the peddler succeeds in stampeding the buyer into mak ing purchases that would not have been made had the consumer first decided what was needed most what could be afforded and where it could be purchased to the best advantage. He is the ex- ponent of unstudied nasty and thus unthrifty buy ing He counts his ability to persuade the buyer Ito accept his statements without investigation and Ito convince his customers by carefully prepared sales talk, that they need something whether they do not. He is expert at keeping alive the old fallacy that his method of selling is the most nomical and that he gives his customer the benefit of this method. Once he has disposed of his goods, it is too late to discover that your old reliable home merchant offers the article for less and will exchange it if it is not what it is represented to be-
 Every Miamian, for self-protection should first ask to see the pedder's license to do business If he has license, he should be reported at once. If he has, refuse to do business with him until you have investigated what your local stores offer Then remember the value of dealing with those who help pay the tax bills, meet the demands for charity and are always at the same stand, season after season, year after year. because they keep faith with their customers
 If this is done, and our officials accept their responsibility the unlicensed peddler longer will be a nuisance in Miami.

 And presently he left them. He patted Kitty's shoulder as he pass ed her. T hope you'll be happy here with us. dear" he offered in a kindly tone.
 But Kitty knew that directly he had closed the outer door he had put her, and Gar, too, out of his mind.
 It was three o'clock of a night five weeks after their coming to Winton, that Gar turned on Kitty with cold dissatisfaction.
 Kit, I wish you'd warm up to my friends a little more. They've been all pretty darn nice to you, I'll say" Cars voice was. sharply criti- cal. He was standing before his chiffonier, tearing off his tie and collar, his back turned to Kitty, but she saw his heavy frown re- flected in the mirror.
 Gar turns against Kitty with more cutting accusations, Mon
 day. And Kitty decides upon a new plan of action.

POLICE SEEK W0ULD-BE
BOMBER OF NEWSPAPER

BY the Associated Press.
LORAIN, Ohio, November IA well
dressed youth suspected Of having placed
a home maze dynamite bomb in the
doorway of the Lorain Journal Thurs
day night was the object OF police
search last night. q
The youth, who wore long dark
overcoat and light cap, was seen In
the vicinity of the building short time
before the bomb was discovered. He
was carrying a black bag resembling
that in which the bomb YVES placed.
The exp!osive-four sticks of dyna-
mite with cap and fuse-was discov-
cred by John w. Graham, business
manager of the Journal. The fuse had
gone out, but was still warm. Police,
who destroyed the bomb yesterday, said
that had 1t exploded, it would have
badly damaged the newspaper plant and
killed or injured some of the 20 en-
ployes who were at work in the adver-
Using department.
The Lorain Journal is under the same
ownership as the Mansfield Journal,
which was bombed in 1891 with seri-
Gus damage. The Mansfield Journal at
that time was editorially crusading
against crime. but the Lorain Journal
has not been engaged in such crusade
