And yet when my brother, Louis Paul, published an editorial making this same statement and showing that the banks and citi- zens would suffer because of the foOliShneSs of the Senators, Rust gard jumped to the conclusion that Auditor Cole and Louis Paul had violated one of the laws of 1913, and so drew up a criminal com plaint and asked the United States district attorney to arrest them for telling the citizens of Alaska the truth about their government"

cent of the entire appropriation.
 When the Legislature finally concluded its work we found that over $2.583,000 had been appropri- ated. The Treasurer, Walstein G. Smith, submitted a budget and showed that the revenue bill would bring in only $1,890,39O. Adding the supply to this, we would have 9 total of $2486,123.67 to pay our ap- propriations. This amount was short of the facts, for Treasurer Smith has no way of ascertaining the expected income of the Terri tory. He keeps a cash account only. He has no account receiv- able.
 Cash Cole told the Legislature that the surplus and revenue would total only S2,325, ,538.59 and that the Territory would be short $257,- 748.89. The Senate, under the leadership of Hess of Fairbanks, killed the revenue bill.
 COLE'C FORECAST TRUE
 The truth of Coles forecast is now borne upon us. The bank balance when I left Juneau was $311, ,347.58. The Governor was withholding S22OOOO in warrants. On January 1st next, the total am- ount which the Territory shall have to pay will be $4O7,000. There will be deficit of $95,OOO on that day, unless some of the larger can neries again take pity upon the Territory as they did last year.

 Tn the fall of 1881, Rustgard and Smith saw that there would be Q shortage Of money as predicted by Cole, and so they directed MT. Keller, Commissioner of Educa- tiOn, to issue school warrants for Cnly three months. Keller con- piled with the request. But in the meantime the Federal party had withdrawn $198,01491 from the general treasury. That money is gone, so that today there is no money for new school districts.

 But that is not the worst.

'Deranged' Woman.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Sept. T.
Paul Bern, brilliant movie executive,
dead in Hollywood by his own hand,
supported until his death a woman,
with whom he once lived, and who
suffered a arrangement" while she
lived with him, it was revealed here
today.
A younger brother of the dead
man, Henry Bern, told of the secret
in the life of the husband of Jean
Harlow, who shot himself Monday
Miss Harlow, the brother said,
knew of her husbands relationship
with the unnamed woman, and
many of his friends also knew of it.
Paul had no secrets" Bern said,
as he paused here en- route to Holly
wood by air.
1T was long ago. The woman
had nervous breakdown, a
arrangement.
Paul had nothing to do with it..
1t wasn't his fault. But he placed
her in a sanitarium, and cared for her
as he might have had she been his
wife. He has kept her there since
that time.
Paul was not conventional. He
was above the conventional in virtue.
He was a good man."

l. Il nous platinum tresses of Jean
Harlow-the admiration of men and
the envy of women wherever movies
are shown-repose today on a head
bowed with grief for, at an age when
many other girls are leaving college,
tragic romance has crossed her
all-too-eventful young life for the
second time.
The story, briefly, is this:
At Is she was a bride; at II she
was divorce; at 81 she was a
bride again and now, only few
weeks later, she is widow-left
bereft by a brilliant, but moody,
movie-director husband twice her
age, who placed a pistol to his tenn
pie and pulled the trigger after
writing her farewell note in which
he assured her of his great love for
her.
What does the future hold in store
for this most gorgeous of all movie
blends whose private life has been
scarcely less colorful than her swift
rise to Stardom on the silverv
screen? Only the future can answer
that, though the past may give a.
grim hint of star-crossed life
doomed to be darkened by unhappi-
ness and tragedy.
The suicide of Paul Bern, her
director husband in their "honev-
moon nest" in a Hollywood canyon
was only another unhappy chapter
in the life of the celebrated young
actress.
Singularly enough, it had all the
elements of stark drama of the
films which Bern, with his ingenu-
ity as a director, cold have plotted
and in which Jean Harlow, as an
actress, could have played the lead
ing role.
For Bern could have cast himself
in the role (Which was his OWN

A record-breaking protest. vote in
Indiana in the November election
was visualized today by party lead
erS and observers, after 10000 per-
sons damned Cadle tabernacle
Tuesday night to hear Norman
Thomas, Socialist candidate for
President.
This was contrasted today with
the audience of a bare 200 which
heard Thomas here in 1928.
Thomas attacked both Republican
policies and Democratic promises
and held out the Socialist party and
its platform as the only concrete
method of bringing America out Of
the depression.
Hits Capitalistic System
Blaming the ills of the nation on
the present fast-dying capitalistic
system, the crazy tax system and
the lop-sided tariff" Thomas point
ed out the incongruity with the
statement:
You are able in Indiana to send
troops to the coal fields when you
are not able to find money to send
bread"
He referred to the action of the
special legislative session in voting
100000 to send national guardsmen
to the coal regions and failing to
pass any unemployment relief meas
ureS.
Thomas also stressed the point
that many believe the next step for
this nation is dictatorship.
"A cry goes up for a MusSolini-
and that cry may not go unan-
swered," he asserted.
AssaiIS Hoover Relief
Criticising the ineffectuality of
Hoover relief panaceas, he charged
that $780, 100000 in the pockets
of the workers of Chicago would do
more good than the $80,000,000
loaned to Charley Dawes"
With Thomas on the program
were Forrest Wallace of Veeders-
burg, senatorial nominee; Powers
Hapgood, Governor choice; Ed Hen
cry, secretary of state Socialist Or
ganization, and other party leaders.
Thomas paid tribute to the MEM
DRY of a Hoosier, Eugene v. Debs,
who prior to his death was the out
standing Socialist leader of the
country.
Indiana is also, I am we'll aware,
today the state of an assorted lot of

stature of greatness" Thomas said.
