Brix Has Answer.

HERMAN BRIX, American record
i l. holder in the shotput, has an
answer for this burst of record
breaking.
You just raise the standard in your
own mind, go after it and find you can
do it," he said
When the mile record was AIS, that
was the mark every one was running
for, BriX said. When it went down
to Alp, every one was trying for that
and, as a consequence, many were run
ming under the old mark Now, with
the record at 4:10, the boys are shad-
ing 4:l2 every time they go on the
track
Brix said that theory has always
worked out in his own case. His first
goal, when he started putting the shot,
was to beat an older brother. He knew
he had to do As feet to do that, and
did. Then he wanted to win the West
Coast title. He knew he would have to
do around AZ to win. He did 48 feet
and a little over.
All of which is interesting, but still
doesn't explain away the fact that
Nurni and Rays 4:12 mile indoors
stood for seven years before Venzke
came along to break it twice in week.

at once, and have the rest of the summer somewhere together"
 She shook her head, signing and smiling, not as yet taking him ser iously.
 'uf only could If only I had t had my fortnight's holiday! But there's no earthly hope of my wheeling another out of the Old Man-his temper these last days has really been worth preserving as museum piece, too utterly aw- ful for words. AS things are, I've got to go gingerly with him."
 ''As things are? What does that mean, as things are?"
 Well, dear boy"-She broke off, her perplexity growing. Then, as she saw that he was scowling, her uncertain mood changed also. Well, dear boy-someone has got to keep the pot boiling and q seem to recollect that we agreed it should be me?"
 Then we can change our minds" snapped Eddie. My wife doesn't pay for a lot of new fur niture at the expense of her health and don't you reckon otherwise!

Ed, what do you think of all this?"
 All what?"
 Well, the apartment, darling, and all the new furniture.
 The light in Eddie's eyes had dimmed.
 Isn't it perfect?" she urged. q wanted it to be so perfect for us to come back to and it was such a shame you had to see it when l wasn't here to lead you home and that we couldn't have the trimphal arches and all the illuminated ad- dresses as I'd planned! Every thing went all wrong, didn't it?- but it's Ill right now. It is per- feet 6. d we are in it together. !"
 He nodded and sat down on the satin- covered stool before the long mirror. She could not see wheth- CT in the mirror he was watching her or himself and she went on chattering to hide her thoughts.
 Tt was better that I shouldn't see you just for those few min utes that I had before I went away. lit would have upset us both and you aren't feeling any too lively anyway, and of course, I have to keep my head clear for my job. Besides, I knew it was only for day or two. You you don't mind?"
 He was staring down at her hands which were dangling between his knees. Georgie bit her lip, per- plexed and embarrassed. She had been apologizing to him and she had no more meant to do that than she had meant to pick a quarrel with Jenny or sit moping on the stairs! What in the world was happening to her?
 I'm tired out" she muttered- and at that he jumped to his feet.
 No wonder! Only Old Match ing would work woman as though she were a machine! You need a holiday just as badly as I do, girl -sweetheart-let's come away now,

going to be 50 happy!' she said aloud But she had no more time for sorrow. She went firmly back to the apartment.
 She sang persistently and cheer fully as she burst into her bedroom and threw her hat on the bed. She had left all doors open behind her and she could hear Eddie"s hes itating return.
 That you, dear boy. Come on and welcome me home?"
 "Girl!"
 He came crashing across the room, big, eager man, and swept her up and into his arms. She shut her eyes as they kissed and all was forgotten save the ectasy of this homecoming.
 "Oh, girl, my girl. Jenny said you wouldn't be here till the end of the week."
 She freed herself, breathless, ra- diant. &
 '1 didn't think I should be, but at the last moment the Old Man called the deal off and we came back. He has kept me slaving all day or I'd have been here befores

Submarine Radium.
(New York Herald Tribune.)

(New York Herald Trbune)
 Not often is there interesting scientific news as that of the discovery by Dr. Charles s. Piggott, of the Carnegie Institution of Washington of un- usually large amounts of radium in rock specimens dredged from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean Not that any hopes to extract this radium, for the percentage in the rocks is so small that were these strata exposed on the land extraction would be unthinkable. The significance of the discovery is the light that it sheds the theory of heat sources underneath the earth's crust and the sus- picion held by many geologists of the profound effects of these hidden heat on the past and future history of the planet.
 One of the things that radium does is to emit energy, which is converted ultimately into heat For bits of radium exposed in laboratories or for radium contained in surface rocks this matters little. Such exposed specimens do keep their tenn peratures a tiny fraction of a degree higher than that of their surroundings but the difference too small to be important It is different when the radium stove so to speak, is wrapped in a blanket forty or fifty miles thick which is precisely the cumstances of any rocks containing radium and buried that deep in the crust of the earth. If radium is present in these deeper rocks the planet is like steam boiler heated continually and from which neither steam any other form of heat is being removed. Sooner later such boiler will explode; and that, scientists believe is what must happen also to the earth.
 One distinguished geologst, Professor John Joly of the University of Dublin believes that this is what does happen, every 100000 years or so that the earhs crust does blow up periodically and that these geologic revolutions explain some of the vicis- situdes of earth history of which the rocks bear record Another idea is that the periodic explosion of the radium heat pent underneath the upper crust is avoided by slow sliding movement of the continents, so that the overloaded rocks come, before it is too late, to be exposed at the bottom of the ocean where the circulation of the cold ocean water coos them. The whole theory has rested, however on inadequate facts since no one was really certain that any radium exists in the deeper rocks of the crust in those exposed at the bottom of the sea. That, doubtless, is why Dr. Pggott selected these Pacific samples for his tests and it is for these theories of crustal explosion past or future that the data will be chiefly significant

EQUALIZATION OF DUTY URGED
 BY DR. CLARK
Salmon Packers Declared Affected by Deprecia-
 ton of Japanese Yen
Especial Correspondencel

k WASHINGTON, D. C., May i8-- DE. E. w. Clark, Secretary of the Association of Pacific Fisheries that is larS Sely operating in Alaska wa ters, Nas in Washington May 21 and appeared before the House Committee on Ways and Means. He advocated support of H. R. 6688. which seeks to equalize tariff duties by compensating for deprec- dation in foreign currencies. He was particularly interest in the competition which the canners of Alaska salmon have to meet in connection with the products of Japan, Siberia and Canada
 The great complaint is that the yen has dropped in value 32 per cent, and the ad valorem duty on fish products from the East is 25 per cent, which leave the fish canners of Alaska and the United states without any actual protec- tion. Dr. Clark stated that Japan is particularly dangerous as a fish competitor because that country has the same kind of raw mater ials and machinery, together with lower costs of production and trans portation, than we do in the Unit

CHAPTER 28. GEORGIE'S CHOICE

At first Georgie thought that Eddie was looking for her but he hurried straight down-down and down, stumbling and sliding-and the next moment she heard Gilrs slow voice.
 Hello, Ed"
 "Oh, hello, Gill" Eddie's voice was slow too, in spite of the fran tic hurrying of his feet. "I-got bit tired of my own company :. Say, it'll be a long time before Miss Jenny is back, won't it?''
 Only just gone,' remarked Gill after long thought.
 "Spose so" Eddie sighed and shuffled q got-lonesome Want match, too. Couldn't find any matches"
 Georgie leaned over the bannis- ters and peered down. At the bottom of the well, in the hall of the building, Eddie was lighting a cigarette while Gill stood silent ly by. AS though the first few whiffs steadied him, he presently turned and ascended the stairs again.
 There's a chair for you in the office," Gill called after him, in burst of garrulity; but Eddie plodded on and up. Exactly, thought Georgie, as she, herself had plodded, every step an effort. We're both frightened, frightened at everything-and, oh, it's such a heartbreaking pity when we were

You'l choose between me and your job. my girl, and you'll choose nowl"
 Georgie was too utterly dismay- 5d to do anything but stare. This, she considered, was the last straw Ito have to fight for her freedom to work, against the prejudices of a man who would, quite likely, be able to work no more! For the vitality and the youth had faded from Eddie's face and he was very clearly a man With frightened eyes and jerky hands-a man no longer fit for his job.
 Go into the living room, old dear" she suggested, and as soon as I'm clean and rested, we can talk"
 T don't see that there's anything to talk about. It's the job-or mel"
 T must rest and change" she insisted and after a moments in- decision he nodded and went into the adjoining room.
 She dropped on the dressing ta- ble bench and passed hand over her face. Oh, but she was tired. body and spirit, and before she could get back her nervous ener- gy she would have to argue and cojole and plead!

ROOSEVELT MIGHT PROFIT.

That Gov Roosevelt's candidacy for Preside would be enhanced by the discovery that May Walker has been guilty of wrong -diong as May S the opinion of many in New York City, accor ng to the independent New York World-Telegra Discussing the situation, the World-Teegram I ,ently said:
 While the possibility of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt removing Mayor James J. Walker is being discussed by Tammany, Ed ward j. Flynn, Bronx Democratic leader is in prospect of becoming the most im- portant of the five New York City leaders. If the Mayor is removed Aldermanic Presi- dent Joseph " Mckee automatically will become Mayor and MT. Flynn is leader of his district.
 Should MT. Mckee become Mayor next January l. it would the return to influence in city matters of Alfred E. Smith. Although MT. Flynn is an ardent advocate of the nomination of Gov. Roosevelt he is classified as a Smith adherent in muni cipal matters
 There would be an election for Mayor in November for the remainder of the term and Tammany could not deny MT. Mckee the nomination it is believed. II elected MT Mckee would want the nom- ination for the four-year term in 1933
 Tammany had thought that action on possible charges by Samuel Seabury against
 
 National Convention, to which Mayor Walker has been elected as delegate at large.
 It had been believed that the Mayor would have thirty days in which to answer any charges, but this was mistake The charter provides that, pending the inves- tigation of charges against the Mayor, the Governor may suspend him for thirty days. The Governor fixes the time for the hearing of the charges.
 In consequence of this it now is believed that if MT. Seabury submitted charges to the Governor within the next few weeks the Governor would act upon them before going to the convention.
 No one has any doubts that if the Gov ernor finds anything lax in MT. Walkers administration of the affairs of this city he will remove him as summariy as he did Thomas M Farley from the office of Sheriff.
 If Mir Walker were no longer Mayor it is thought that Gov. Roosevelts chances of getting Tammany support at the Ma tional Convention would be considerably en- hanced It is believed that but for Mayor Walkers veto Tammany Chieftain John F. Curry would have declared for the nom- ination of the Governor some time ago.

ed States. The prices for fish cannery products in this country are now below the cost of produc- tion, he added. The unforeseen de- preciation of currencies have prac- tically nullified the tariff rates in the present Act.
 The recent Act passed by Con- gresS for the protection of the northern Pacific halibut fishery, provides among other things that the Close season" shall mean from Nov. 1 until Feb. IS; Ter ritorial waters of the United States shall mean the waters con- tinuous to the southern and west ern coast of Alaska and to the western coast of the United States; it shall be unlawful for any per- son to fish for or attempt to catch halibut at any time in the waters designated when closed to fish ing; it shall be unlawful for any vessel having on board any hali- but caught contrary to any pro- visions of the Convention or Act to enter any port in the United States, nor shall any port in the United States be used to prepare a vessel for such illegal halibut fishing. The penalty for violation of the Act is a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $1,000, or imprisonment for not more than one year, or both.

WHY WORRY?

There is not little speculation these days as to whether the troubles of Mayor Walker and a few other New York City officials will react against the Democratic Party in the elections next Novem- Der The troubles of two or three Cabinet officials and numerous others, some of whom sent to the penitentiary, did not hurt the Republicans in the elections that have occurred since President Hardng's day. So why would any worry over the doings of a few municipal officers!
