CHAPTER 30.
Judy sisnaled a page boy who stood
nearby.
How do I reach Mr.. Flavin7"

Judy sisnaled page boy who ssooo
"How do reach Mr.. F1avinr"
~ she asked
Call him on the house phone.
Right there. I'll get him for you"
He rang, waited, rang again. Here
you are, Miss Allison"
''Mr. Flavin?"
"Yes"
This is Judy Allison"
'Oh. Miss Allispn Say, I've been
wanting to tell you. That was smart
piece of work you and Day put over on
jerks the other day. Smart as could
be! That's real salsslnanship. all right.
And you'll earn the money, too. jerks
Is tickled to death with the mail. And
everybody says your voice IS Knockout.
Why, II you weren't under exclusive
contract row could put you ion an
other program today"
'Mr. Flavin. I'm calling about Dick
Mason"
oh" There was q faint change in
But Judy went on.
Dick Mason-he's, he's gone, you
know"
"Yes. I heard about it."
well, Mr. jerks isn't satisfied With
the new announcer. He's in trying to
get Dick Mason back on the program
now. And he says he'll not take any
body else"
"Oh. I'd better see him, then. jerks
Is the kind thatll bust everything wide
open if he thinks he's not getting what
hes paying for. Thanks for the tip
Miss Allison. Ill get after him right
away"
But I wanted to tell you-"
"Yes. Yes. You bet. Thanks, Miss
Allison"
Hs hung up. Calling back would do
no good Judy knew. Flavin would be
on his way already through the various
departments, hunting for jerks, talking
to him, soothing him.
Somewhere in one Of the studios
canary with an amazingly strong voice
was singing, happy, deliriously gay
against the slow music OF a piano.
Somewhere else Paul Whitsman's bands
men rehearsed, rehearsed, going over
and over some new tune.
Judy Allison would have thrilled to
all this a very few days ago. Would
have waited to see Paul Whiteman
emerge from the studio. Would have
wondered about the distinguished, quiet
man somebody said was Lowell Thomas,
Would have wished to meet the ener-
getic young man she knew-from pic
lures she had seen-was Fred Wartng,
hurrying to play somewhere With his
orchestra. Not now.
Dick Mason mattered Nobody else In
the world. She knew that, for sure.
At 7:10 Elton Day telephoned.
"Tell him I'm not in," Judy asked FL
sic. He was told.
At 8 he telephoned again.
Tell him won't be back at all this
evening" He was told.
At $3.50 he appeared ct the house, and
Mrs. Malone, f1uttering, excited, report
ed. Hes very nice young man. And
he's got big box Of flowers. Roses, ]
think. And"
"Tell him I'm not in"
81 did. And he said he'll wait"
"Then-"
might as we'll see him and get 1t
over with" Elsie suggested.
II don't want to see him!"
"'Course not. And I don't want to
see the sun 60 down. But 1t goes just
the same. And that person will be sit
ting there from now on, if you don't
talk to him"
But"
"I could throw him out for you IL
you wanted me to- Elsie suggested,
surveying her strong arms with consid-
erable pride.
mo. That wouldn't do any good"
"Course it wouldn't. Just tell him
to be on his way. You told him plenty
today, anyhow. He ought to know when
he's not wanted"
HE doesn't care if he's wanted OF
not I think he honestly believes no.

Many Neqc Stamps

ONE sentence in the tax bill passed to bring
- the national budget to balance meant a
period of intense concentration of activities in
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.
The sentence in question provided the in
crease in postal charges from to cents ON
letters. The initial order from the Post Office
Department called for 1000, 100000 Scent
stamps One billion 1-cent stamps to be
used with the present 2-cent stamps were re-
quired and several hundred million and 3
cent postage due stamps were ordered
Three hundred million Scent stamped en-
velopes, enough to fill 100 freight cars, were
required.
1t is estimated that the number of Scent
stamps in the initial order would stretch two
and half times around the world.

Alaska Ready for Pioneers

THE pioneer still can find q land Of promise
where he can find excellent farm land at
what seem to be ridiculously low prices In
Alaska!
The associating of Alaska with extremes OF
cold weather is q popular fallacy, for along
the coastal belt the temperatures are mild
enough for many food crops. The Department
of Agriculture estimates that there are $1,000
square miles of land suitable for farming in
territory where the temperature ranges from
above zero in Winter to IS to 80 degrees in
Summer
This land now available can be obtained for
homesteading purposes at a cost of $125 per
acre. Developed farms on a quarter section
Evening star., 1932-06-19

with some buildings can be obtained for as
little as $1,000 to $4,000
The general climate Of the coastal area in
Alaska is about the equivalent of Norway,
Sweden, Finland and the upper third of Rus
sia. The warm currents of the waters from
Japan, conflict with the frigid waters of the
Arctic Ocean and give variety to the weather
conditions.
Among the agricultural products which may
be successfully produced in Alaska are oats,
wheat, barley, potatoes and various garden veg
etables Dairy cows, hogs and chickens are
also raised prof1tably.
The cost of living in Alaska is relatively high,
but the prices paid for farm products are on
level with the costs of living, so that the life
Of the farmer Is fairly attractive in this
section.

Machine Makes Change

Some buses recently put into operation, run.
ming in and out of one of the Midweste-n
cities are equipped with device which makes
change for any amount up to 81. In this way
the driver IS relieved of the necessity Of hans
ding the money. All he has to do is TO drive
the vehicle and see that the passengers pay
their fares. The device presents several slots
for receiving the different coins and the piece
to be changed is placed in the appropriate slot.
Then upon touching a button, the coins are
dropped into a convenient hopper. The pas.
senger then deposits the necessary fare in ans
other slit When it comes to making change
for 81 bill, he hands the note to the driver
and that official causes ST worth of change to
fall into the hopper, but this operation has
charged up dollar against the driver, who
must account for the same when he makes
bis report.

WEEK
FIGHT RESUMED

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. %
G.N.SD.-The American Fedora
ton of Labor today reopened its
campaign for shorter work week.
Three hundred delegates, begin
ming the second week of their ma
tional convention, started a search
for plan by which a six-hour day
and five-day week can be made
popular and enforceable.
Alt h ugh a constitutional
amendment, calling for a 30-hour
week was rejected almost unani-
mously by the convention last
week, President William Green an
nounced that lit is clearly evident"
that a shorter work week must be
adopted to lead America out Of
the depression.
Unemployment insurance is to
be brought to the floor of the con-
vention for approval today or to-
morrow.
Green envisions the 30-hour
week as the only means for "tak-
ing up the slack of unemploy.
ment."

Senator Cohen is vice chairman

Know Your SpinOrs

. BERLIN, Nov. 28,-Have you
a little spinor in your home?
Or perhaps you call it a semi
vector.
Prof. Albert Einstein who
made the world relativity-con-
scious, says the spinor is the
latest thing in higher mathe-
matics.
The history and name Of the
spinor began with the discovery
Of the electron's spin in 1925,
and the mathmatics involved
in that spin was clarified two
years later. Several more
theories were added, and
finally a Dutch mathematician
has now put all the figures and
formulas into one book. The
'relativity" Of the electron's
spin, called the spinor, will help
to estimate the distance be.
