"PLAyGIRLS IN LOVE"

She had had a grudge
against Genevieve for some
time.
"You shut up and leave me
alone! I'll talk to whom I
darn well please! Mind your
own bus4neSs!"
No response could have been
more unfortunate.
Genevieve was half crazy. =.
the long-drawn strain and sus-
pense of loving Cliss, who would
alternately blow hot, blow
cold" combined with the fact
that she had given way to NOR
bid broodings, and jealous
hatred of Loranda (whom she
blamed for coming between
them) that, and wild parties
trying to forget" had shattered
her nerves completely.
"You dare to talk to me that
way you ---I" she cried at
the top of her voice in the
speakeasy. why, you're moth
ing but a -! Everyone knows
what you are! There isn't a de-
cent man in New York would
marry you!"
Crazy With Rage
This was too much. Loranda
herself was no mean opponent
in verbiage when she had been
drinking.
She inflamed Genevieve be-
yond all bounds by her reply.

She wasn't so pretty now,
with the scar running from

up to her jawbone.
This was a life memento she
had garnered from her scene

BOTANICAL GARDEN
HURT BY FUND CUT
Efficient Workers to Go
Under Reduction.
By Science Serrice


NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-Lack OF
funds for continued emergency en-
ployment has brought double
misfortune to the New York bo-
tanical garden. twenty-five wom-
en-. who have had temporary jobs
there must be let out and the gar
den loses a group of its most eff
Gent workers.
About two years ago DR.. Elmer
D. Merrill, director, asked the
women's work bureau of the emer-
gency unemployment relief commit
tee for half dozen women workers,
experience not necessary. The bu-
reau sent them up and kept them
paid and the garden furnished work
for them to do The force was in
creased, until at one time 1872 wom-
en- were at work.
They did all kinds of things;
mounted and labeled more than
100000 plant specimens, made out
card catalogs, translated from
several languages, including the
Latvian; housecleaned public eXhi-
bition cases that had been gather
ing dust for years. The depression
was boost for the New York bo-
tanical garden.
But now funds have failed and
the last group of women left on the
job have to be dismissed.

VOTE SYSTEM
CHANGES SEEM
IN AMENDMENT
Proposed Law Would Alter
Electoral College
Counting.

BIZ rippS-HoCdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-With the
country in a house cleaning mood.
a group of persistent congressman
are determined to secure adoption
of another amendment to the Con-
Stitution.
Like the lame duck amendment.
which becomes part of the law of
the land on Oct. Is. this other is
designed to improve the machinery
of democracy rather than the pres
ent economic condition of the coun~
try. 1t is a remedy which looks to
prevention of future crises.
This proposed amendment would
abolish the electoral college system
of choosing a President and Vice
President and substitute instead
method of counting which definite
ly reflects the wishes Of the voters.
1t has been urged for years by Sena-
tor George w. Norris (Rep., Neb)
and Representative Clarence Lea
Dem, Call.
Present Tally Inaccurate
The present electoral college &C
tually diSenfranchiseS a large pro-
portion of the popular vote by
counting all of a states electoral
votes for the man receiving a ma.
jority, these two liberals say.
For instance, when New York'S
popular vote was closely divided be-
tween Herbert Hoover and Alfred
E. Smith its As electoral votes were
all counted for Hoover and votes
cast for Smith actually we're used to
swell Hoover's total in the electoral
college.
The Norris-Lea amendment pro-
poses that each state shall retain
electoral votes but that they shall
be divided among the candidates
according to the proportion of the
popular vote they receive.
Reports FavOrably on Bill
In the Hoover-Smith election, for
instance, Hoover would have been
ElNCll 20 VI 1NCW L VI > ~ NOICS dIlNl
Smith %. Using this same system
throughout the country the final re-
suits would have reflected a much
closer race between these two candi-.
dates than did totals of the cleo
toral college. But Hoover would
still have won the national election.
The house committee on elections,
which has reported the amendment
favorably, finds that LAS measured
by our history the electoral college,
system fails g.. to provide that cer~
tainty of election and that aSsur-
ance that the election, when &C
complished, accurately reflects the
popular will that are essentials of
any satisfactory system of electing
the head of our nation"

FLORIDA TARPON MAY
BE 100 PER CENT NATIVE
Two Women Naturalists Discover
Evidence of Spawning.

Evidence of Spawning.
By Science Service
NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-F1orida's
famous game fish, the tarpon, may
be a 100 per cent native Floridian,
and not an immigrant from West
Indian waters, as commonly sup
posed. Evidence for the existence
of a tarpon spawning ground in
certain brackish water areas around
Sanibel island, Lee county, on the
gulf coast of Florida, has been sent
to the journal Science, published
here, by two Florida women natu-
raliSts, Margaret Storey and Louise
M. Perry.
They have found young tarpon
in the Sanibel island waters, and
they add that fishermen of the To-
cality can net tarpon in early stages
of development in certain brack-
ish water pool on the island. They
tried seining this pool and captured
infant fish whose scales indicated
an age of about one year.
Miss Storey and Miss Perry are
now trying to find tarpon in still
earlier stages of development in the
same locality.

U. S. MAY ACT
TO CONSOLIDATE.
ALL RETAILERS
AAA Economist Advances
Proposal as Aid for
Farmers.

By ScriDpsHoicard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Consoli-
dation of local retail delivery sys-
TENS is being suggested here by
Mordecai Ezeklal, chief economist of
the agricultural adjustment admin
istration, as one way to cut down
costs Of distribution so farmers may
receive more of the price consumers
pay for their products.
Under NRA codes of fair compe-
tition or marketing agreements ap-
proved by AAA, such consultations
would be possible.
Mr.. Ezekial did not cite the ex-
ample, but another man high in the
New Deal councils recently pointed
out to friends that some small re-
tail stores in New York are visited
each day by as many as a dozen
bread statesmen. He has also sug-
geSted the consolidation of these
middlemen delivery systems.
He, like Ezekial, realizes that the
plans they suggest would throw
some men and women out of jobs.
Raises Living Standard
you may feel like saying" Mr..
Ezekial remarked to a group Of re-
tail distributors in Boston, that if
we eliminate some of these services
all the workers formerly engaged in
selling could not be so employed
But is it desirable" he asked, that
consumers support all the workers
in stores as were once engaged in
selling?
Might it not be better for all of
us if some of the energies previously
centered on distribution we're de-
voted instead to production? Might
not standards of living be higher all
the way around if we so reorganize
production and distribution that we
again have large majority of the
persons in the country engaged in
production and oily small proper
ton engaged in transporting and
selling?"
Supply Is Concentrated
The economist at the same time
pushed a little farther along the
idea if Secretary of Agriculture
Henry L. Wallace that eventually,
under the new deal, milk might be
regarded as a public utility and
regulated as such.
"As Secretary Wallace already has
suggested" Mr. Ezekial said, cit
may be that economic and effective
retail distribution of milk can be
secured only by making milk pub
lie utility, and then controlling very
closely the methods of its distribu-
ton.
Perhaps eventually we will be
forced to regard milk as a public
necessity, just as we now do water
and gas, and will concentrate its
supply and distribution in the hands
of a single concern, either under
public regulation as utility, or I'M
der direct operation by government
tai agencies"

PAPRIKA ACID FOUND
AS CURE FOR SCURVY
Successful Experiment Reported by
Physician in Europe.

BIZ Science Sorrice
LONDON, Oct. 6.-An acid pre-
pared from paprika cured man Of
scurvy when injected into his veins,
it appears from a report by DR.. Poul
Schultzer, president physician of

liShed here.
The acid is ascorbic acid. 1t for
merly was known as hexuronic acid
and generally is thought to be iden-
teal with vitamin G. This is prob
ably the first time it has been used
to cure the disease, which results
from lack of vitamin c in the diet.

A JAfLBIRD HERO

Jack Smith of Salinas is in jail, and if
reports of the reason he is there are COR
rect, he ought to be given his liberty very
shortly, handsome apology and medal
to boot.
Smih was arrested by police when he
hoped off freight train at Salinas and
was held on a vagrancy charge At his
trial it developed that he is an unem-
ployed barber, who owns five houses in
Salinas.
The people who occupy his houses are
unable to pay their rent through inability
to get work, and Smith said he guessed
he'd have to plead guilty to the vagrancy
charge as he would not put his tenants
out in the street
His plea was accepted by the court
and he was sent to jail. The story does
not say how long he will have to serve.
If there is anything like the spirit of JUS
tice up around Salinas it should not have
to be for long.
And while we can think up plenty of
reasons for apologies and medals for
Smith we can think of quite few things
entirely different which we could wish
for the judge who sent him to jail.

and help you pick apples
That will be kind of you," spoke

"Oh, joy!" grunted the pig, and
away he waddled to the store to
get some sour milk for a potato
pudding while Uncle Wiggily hop
ped on to find the apple tree.
There it was in the field, tree
with many red apples hanging on
the branches.
But how aSn ! going to get the
apples down off the tree?" thought
| Mr.. Longears "They aren't ripe
enought to fall off by themselves.
If they were, I could easily pick
them off the ground. I'm not strong
! enough to shake the tree and Jiggle
some apples down. And this tree
is not low enough for me to climb.
I wonder how I am going to get
some apples for Nurse James pie?''
Uncle Wiggily hoped around the
tree trying to think of a way to
get the aples down. Then he hop
ped off little way to the top of
hill thinking he might see some
/ friends who would pick apples for
him. But he saw no one.
Dear mel How am I going TO
get some apples?" thought the rab-
bit gentleman. "I'll go back under
the tree again. Perhaps some may
have fallen by this time. If only
the wind would blow"
But no wind was blowing as Mr..
Longears hoped back toward the
tree. Then, all of a sudden, behind
some bushes close to the tree, Mr.
Longears heard voices talking. He
stopped quickly. Now who was talk
ing and what happened I'll tell you
