Introduction in the house of bill

tural products in the United States

IS member of the house committee
on agriculture.

his opinion such measure, if enact
ed into law, would prove boon to
agriculture. 1t would create a great
er demand for crops and help use IN
the surplus, thus assisting in raising
prices of farm products and restoring
the purchasing power of tie farmer,
he said.

THE happiest town that Robert
Il Marshall has found is the tiny
village of WiSeman, an isolated
hamlet away up in the Alaskan will
dernesS north of the Arctic circle.
It is about as lonely a spot as a
man could find; it has no riches, nc
prospects and few modern con-
veniences. but its handful of citizens
get a whole lot of fun out of life.
Marshall tells about it in Arc
tic Village a strangely fascinating
and deeply interesting book.
WiSman is in the upper valley OF
the Koyukuk river. This territory
is as large as Massachusetts and
New Jersey combined, and has a to-
tai of 127 inhabitants.
About seventy of them are whites
and the rest are EsSkimoS. Gold
mining and fur trapping are the
major industries.
The winters are more than seven
months long. There are no roads
no automobiles, no radios and nc
movies.
Marshall spent year in Wise
man, and took notes aSsiduouSly. He
tells how whites and ESkimoS live
on a plane of equality.
Their children attend school to-
gether, the adults dance together at
community festivals. All of them
share in the strange freedom OF
the frontier.
In the Koyukuk a man is, quite
literally, his own boss, and his
neighborS are his friends.
The result is a remarkable high
average of happiness. and it is the
virtue of Marshalls book that he
analyzeS this happiness and shows
just how and why it exists.

CHARLES thick letter awaited
~ Monnie at the hotel in Lon

Curious how her heart leaped at
the sight of it. 1t must be, she told
herself, that she expected from
Charles some news of Dan. Yes,
that was the reason.
The square white envelope, the
bold. irregular black handwriting
were eloquent of Charles person
ality. The letter too, was filled
with characteristic phrases.
Miss AnStice's voice aroused her.
It said, my dear, that if we are
going to make the Cheshire Cheese
for luncheon we'd better hurry.
That must be a very fascinating
letter. You've read it three times,
and I've been speaking to you for

watch. Good Lord, but it's late.
I had no idea"
Sandra had risen, and now she
slipped that cool, long fingered hand
of hers over his big brown one
Her voice broke appealingly on the
words she had to say to him.
Dan, don't be mad at me, dar-
lin" will you? 1 can't bear that
He said, "Of course not. Why
should l be?'
He could see pearls of tears
trembling on her long laShes. Funny
he hadn't thought of Sandra as the
crying kind. She always seemed SO
sure of herself. He was touched
Nice of her to care enough for that
ITS Just that I like you SO
awfully and hate to see you hurt.
Her pale, pointed face had shade
of usefulness upon it.
Sure. I know" Dan was en-
barrasSed.
Il just wanted to tell you this
dear" said Sandra quite simply and
without apparent self consciousness
IF ever you feel you want to talk
things over with any one, why, I'm
always around. Always friends, dc
you see?' She smiled up at him.
"Of course. And thanks lot. -
Dan wanted to get away, and yet
he was held, too, by some perverse
charm in this girl
AS he walked home through the
crisp autumn night he tried to
find his way back through the maze
of words Sandra had used.
Had she said Monies engage
memt to Charles was definite? Dan
wasn't sure. But women always
knew about things like that. 1t
must be so.
And Sandra, disrobing in that
exotic red and white boudoir OF
hers. smiled delightedly at her
self in the mirror, pursuing her lips
in the shape of a kiss. Catching
about her the folds of a creamy
velvet negligee, she eyed her reflec-
ton with satisfaction.
Give me six weeks more" she
promised herself. Give me until
Christmas"
If any one had been watching,
he would have wondered what
Sandra planned to accomplish by
the holiday time. Surely something
splendid. Her color famed and her
eyes Shone like stars.

Husing Barred

Baseball's absolute dictator,

barred Columbia's ace an

to have more than four at the
important battles.

ball this is the most important
decision the good judge has
made. To his manner Of think

rate a pother Is Immediately

may be amplified somewhat.

That was the year John Nc
Graw decided to win the series by
deep thinking. But, as the games
progressed, the Yankees went in
more and more for deep hitting,
so that in the end John was most
mortified. He found that, no
matter how profoundly you medi-
tate, you cannot think your
pitcher into a double play with
the bases filled, nor your center
fielder into Saturday, Sunday
and holiday catch against the
wall with two out in the ninth.
Maybe young Mr.. Cronin ought
to be told about that, if it is really
true that he spends his time plot
ting darkly.
After all, there's nothing intel
lectual about a good, old-fashioned
poke in the center field bleachers.

There's no doubt that pitching

Yankees Consider
Myer Toughest
Griff Hitter

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.
Buddy Myer is the toughest
hitter of the Washington Sen
ators, according to the New
York Yankees, and the Yam
KEGS should know something
about that. Myer, with Manush
and Cronin, will probably star
at the bat for the American
League champions in the world
series, the Yankees believe.
"Myer, Manush and Cronin
are the tough hitters Of the
Senator's" Bill Dickey, Yankee
catcher, said today.
Kuhel is considered danger
BUS, too, by the Yankees, but he
is not rated as consistent as
the other three.
