prefer"
No, this wasn't said by some il
literate during the era of our war
hysteria. It's merely part of a ra-
dio speech delivered by Frederick
Schortemeier, former secretary of
state, candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor in 1928,
and candidate for the. Republican
nomination for Lieutenant-G Gov
ernor in 1882.
In both races Schortemeier was
defeated and if the above quotation
is a sample Of his political and
economic thought, then both the
Republican party and the people of
Indiana are fortunate that his cam
paigns for nomination were I'M
successful.
It's been years since the 100 per
centers have heard the crack about
the dissatisfied leaving for some
other country and it generally was
thought that this phrase had died
with the Khan, but Schortemeier
evidently is out doing some mission
airy work.
It wouldn't be bad idea for the
Republican county committee heads
to censor the radio speeches made
under then auspices.

Another gem of political thought
which exhibited close acquaintance
with present conditions was enun-
ciated by Raymond S. Springer, G..
o. P. Governor nominee, at the
Brazil rally the other night.
Disdaining the lesson learned by
the two cars in every garage and
a chicken in every pot" speech by
President Hoover, Springer said:
Republican success in Indiana and
the nation in November is destined
to bring job for every man and
more dollars in circulation"
That would sound all right if adj
dressed to a state where there was
no unemployment and restitution;
or to men and women who have
not had their earnings slashed to
the bone. But it has the ring of a
CHASTITY joke when uttered during a
time like this.

denied that the nation is passing
through panic. 1t has been called
"deflation' or at the worst de
preston" but for a man seeking
the governorship to promise pros
perity through four more years of
Republican rule, is the height of
some sort or other of ignorance.
1t is certain that none of the pub
licity men at Republican state or
county headquarters wrote either of
the above quoted state documents.
Nor did they read the addresses be-
fore delivery.
That is why the speeches are so
interesting. They give an excellent
insight into the mental processes of
the speakers.

CHAPTER TWENTY
ON % oN ILL IL sroRY

DONA sat with her father for an
~ hour. He plainly was agitated
by Swergins report, but making an
effort to conceal his feelings. She
tried to keep from thinking Of the
ride she had promised TO take that
afternoon.
She thought Of Ball and wondered
II Swergin and his men ever would
be successful.
Thinking Of Ball kept Dona from
surrendering to the panicky fear
that tugged at her heart whenever
she let her mind return to the pro-
posed ride that afternoon.
Ball evidently was a hard-riding,
fast-shooting type, utterly fearless
and a dead shot with a gun. He
would be as much at home in the
rough country as a wolf and twice
rs dangerous.
She knew that Swergin and his
crew of loggers were no match for
such a man

The doctor went inside and closed

Dona wandered down to the cor
rails and watched Malloy rope and
ride a wild horse. She waved her
hat when he finally forced the
snoring pitching brute to give in
to his will
.Malloy grinned at her and turned
the saddle horse over to one of the
other men.
Take him out and ride him He's
tame now, the corral boss ordered.
I suppose you'd saddle the roam
for me this morning. Dona asked
the question with a sparkle in her
eyes
Malloy nodded.
DOna looked at her wrist watch.
1t was IL o'clock. She would have
time for a gallop down the canyon
before Dudley returned. All right

Malloy slipped a saddle on the
roam and brought him to the gate.
Better watch him, Ma-am. He's

nONA smiled disdainfully and
II leaped into the saddle. The
roam shook his head and went off as
though he had not had several days
in which to get back his temper.
They headed down the canyon at
n brisk gallop.
She had gone perhaps half
mile when she discovered a rider
trailing her and halted to wait for
the man. He came up with her
and pulled his horse to a walk

SEA GULLS EXPERT
in AERIAL CRAFT
Could Give Pointers to
Army Aviators.

Some six or seven years ago the
Vineyard Gazette published its first
story Of the sea gulls, which, having
discovered that the hard-surfaced
roads serve we'll as a substitute for
a rock, shatter scallops and qua
haugs to bits by dropping them
from the air to the surface Of the
highway. Since that time the Ga
zette has carried further stories, de-
failing the uncanny skill of these
birds, who made allowance for wind
velocity with the accuracy of an eN-
pert rifleman or airplane bomber,
never missing the narrow road or
failing to drop the shellfish from
height sufficient to shatter the
shells. All of this may be verified.
Other newspapers have made sim
liar discoveries about gulls in vari-
GUS places, and it has become quite
the seasonable thing for them to
carry an account Of the activities of
these natural sky riders whenever
the shellfish are easily obtainable
and attract the birds. But the Ga
zette now presents new angle on
the Vineyard seagulls, together with
the solution of mystery that has
for long been a puzzle to islanders.
For several years it has been no
ticed by passersby on the Edgar
town-oak Bluffs road that in the
vicinity of Anthiers Bridge there are
apt to be found the mortal remains
of large rats at very frequent inter-
walls. Where they come from, or
what causes their death, has been a
subject for discussion, as in many
cases the carcasses are found where
the wheels of passing cars could not
have struck them, and moreover,
they always bear the appearance of
having been more or less mangled
and torn. 1t has remained for Capt.
Chester Robinson to solve the mys-
terry, which the Gazette now pub
fishes.
According to the captain, who is
we'll versed in natural history, and
has spent much time in observing
the activities Of sea birds, the ordi-
nary sea gull is fond of rats and
mice. The remains Of shellfish, scat
tered along the road in this locality,
act as bait, attracting these rodents
from long distances. They hide in
the beach grass when cars or pedes-
TRANS approach, but when the high
way is clear they will scamper about
the road, eating the fragments of
scallop or quahaug that they find in
the emptied shells.
At this juncture the highly efficient
gulls get in their skilled and deadly
work. Soaring aloft with heavy
quahaug In their beaks, they mount
to an unusual height, and lowering
and shifting their position, gauging
the wind and drift to a nicely, they
drop the shellfish with precision
that almost never fails to connect
with the rodent below, knocking it

WHY HOARD THINGS
THE WORLD NEEDS?
We don't mean gold!


Why not quit boarding sympathy?
Let it flow freely. Why keep your
emotions pent up? Why not give
your nobler feelings chance for
circulation?
Why hoard kindness? 1t doesn't
do you any good, much less your
neighbor. These are the days when
multitudes are down and out. Why
not give those who are hungry for
little attention a handout? Why
not give them the glad hand of ap
plause? 1t will not impoverish you
and it may make them rich.
Why hoard affection? The world
is shriveling up and blowing away
for want Of it. The most pernicious
anemia is that of loveless life. 1t
Is the most fatal of all ailments and
the most prevalent. Why forget any
body else Is on earth? Let the big
bruisers rush in and grab fist full
and run off pellnell to lord 1t over
others. They don't grab the finer
things Of life.
Hoarding gold is apt to result
from boarding the best elements Of
character. And the release of hui
manity among men may have the ef-
feet Of setting the gold stream free.
So why not let up on boarding al

CLEARING HOUSE RULE
AIDS GOTHAM BANKS
Change in Interest Charges on
Deposits Will Be Effective
April %.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 20-New evidence
Of what is hoped by central banking au-
thorities to prove general Spring
thaw made its appearance yesterday In
the credit field.
The New York Clearing House Asso-
citation notified its members, including
virtually all Of the stable banks of the
City of New York, that on April %
certain rules covering interest payments
on deposits would undergo change.
resulting in saving of many millions
OF dollars annually in interest paid by
banks on deposits.
While commercial bankers did not at
tribute the change in rules to the Fed
eral Reserve Banks aggressive drive to
loosen up credit, they said the action
was unquestionably in recognition" of
1t. In other wards, they denied that
the Reserve Banks drive to pile up
cash resources of the banks to such a
height that they would be forced to
look elsewhere than. at Government
bonds for profitable investment, they
admitted that the early trend appeared
already to point to likelihood of Reserve
Bank success in that direction.
AS means of scaling down their in
terest charges on deposits to conform
with the expected easier tone of money
the Clearing House announced it had
ruled that in calculating interest on
deposits from April %, allowance Is to
be made for deductions in the Reserve
covering demand and time deposits
On the demand deposits, the reserve Is
to be 13 per cent and on time deposits
per cent"
Technically, it was explained. this
will get around general reduction in
interest rates on deposits, but the effect
will be the same Under the new rule
the Clearing House member banks will
not pay interest on that portion of their
deposits which, under law, they are
obliged to turn over to the Reserve
Bank as deposit reserve. This reserve,
on which the banks do not receive in
terest, amounts to s13 for every S100 of
demand deposits and SO for every 500
of time deposits.
Since March IL deposits have been
growing, the Clearing House report
