HOLLYWOOD, May 8. UP
Fears that Albert De Winton, AM

WASHINGTON, May 8.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today stood COM
mitted to invoke the powers of the
initiation bill if necessary to restore
prices to fair level.
He coupled this promise with as
surance that he would seek to pre-
vent speculative boom that will
lead us into another tailspin."
In a public review of his policies
last night, Mr.. Roosevelt also pro-
missed that the government would
assist industry in cooperative sup
ervision designed Ito give the in
dustrial workers of the country q
more fair wage return, prevent cut
throat competition and unduly long
hours of labor, and at the same
time to encourage each industry to
prevent overproduction."
Answering the question as to whe-
Their he would use the great pow
ers being granted by congress to
expand credit and currency and
cheaper the dollar, the President
defined his policy as follows:
THE administration has the def
mite objective of raising commo-
dity prices to such an extent that
those who have borrowed money
will, ON the average, be able to re-
pay that money in the same kind
of dollar which they borrowed.
I'VE do not seek to let them get
such a cheap dollar that they will
be able to pay back great deal
less than they borrowed. In other
words, we seek to correct wrong
and not to create another wrong
in the opposite direction.
THAT is why powers are being
given to the administration to pro-
vide, if necessary, for an enlarge
ment of credit, in order to correct
the existing wrong. These powers
will be used when, as, and If they
may be necessary to accomplish the
purpose"
| Explains Partnership
Mr.. Roosevelt objected to the
term government control as a
description of the plan he is de-
veloping for cooperative supervision
of industry. He had it was rather
partnership in planning and part
nership to see that plans are car
ried out"
Government, he said, Ought
TO have the right and will have the
right after surveying and planning
for an industry to prevent, with the
assistance of the overwhelming ma
jority of that industry, unfair prac-
tice and to enforce this agreement
by the authority of the government.

we're intended to prevent the crea-
ton of monopolies. That purpose

United Press Staff Correspondent

PEIPING, May 8.-Japanese en-
trenched in the Miyunhsien sector,
below the Great Wall about 35 miles
north of Peiping, began an intense
artillery bombardment OF the Chi
nese positions today.
The fighting was taken to presagc
a major japanese thrust southwaIds
which would be most likely TO end
in the occupation of this key city in
the event of determined Chinese re-
sistance and major japanese casual
ties. Huge American and British
interests center in Peiping and
Tientsin.
Chinese. Japanese and American
communicates confirmed the Japan
csc reoccupation OF the Luanho tr.-
angle, formed by the Luan river, the
Great Wall and the sea, with heavy
loss of Chinese life and many jap
anese casualties.
The fighting in the Luanho tri-
angle included battles at Peitaiho
and Changli. The Chinese forces
under Gen Ho Chu-Kuo fell back
on their main defenses at Luan-
chow
japanese troops advancing down
the railway proceeded cautiously,
expecting a major action at Luan-
chow.
Additional Japanese units began
an advance towards Peiping along
the Mandarin highway, and reached
Yungping, where the highway
crosses the Luanho.
WASHINGTON, May 8. UH -
The state department relied today
on the effectiveness of a long stand
ing defense plan to protect Ameri-
can and other nationals in the Pei
ping -Tientsin area if they were
endangered by fighting between
Japanese and Chinese.
This plan calls for cooperation
among American, British, French
and other troops in defending the
legation quarter of Peiping, which
is neutralized area. America has
100 soldiers at Tientsin and nearly
500 marines in Peiping.

CHAPTER XLVI

The poker game in the flat
that night lasted until IL
o'clock, and the rooms were
blue with tobacco smoke before
it was over. Edna went to bed
at 10 o'clock but Sharlie stayed
in the living room, stretched
out on the sofa with a maya
zine, listening to the slip and
click of the chips on the ma
hogany tabletop, the rustic of
cards, the sound Of voices cay
ing "I'll call you" or Let's
make this seven card peek"
1t was the first time in her
memory that she had sat UP
until the end of one of the
family's poker games, and she
was yawning and bored by the
time she heard Mr.. Collins re-
mark that it was time he was
thinking about leaving and
going home to get some beauty
sleep.
He came into the living room
with his coat over one arm, his
tie a little to one side, and his
face looking pale and puffy
from over-eating and hours of
smoking. Dodie, close behind
him, said good night to Maud
and Carl Hanaberry and then
held out her hand to him.
Eldon Dunn had vanished at
the end of the game.
"I'm going to leave you peo-
pie and clear away the debris

The summer gloves are here
1.-The new gloves are here.
I feel almost like singing a song
about it, for we've waited so
long. The fashion magazines
have been talking pique gloTes,
picturing strange and exciting
concoctions Of string and fabric,
Of organdie and mesh, for two
or three months. The stores
could tell you about them, too,
and promise them in a week or
two, but it seemed that they
would never come. But now
nearly every store has d mar
velouS array of the new con-
fections. Sports styles, street
gloves, dainty bits for after
noon. They're all here, and
they're so Summery, so new. so
different that they're worth a
trip downtown to see.
String for Sports
The gloves we've Sketched
speak for themselves. For
sports and country, for driving
your car, and for your tailored
cotton dresses, there are the
string gloves. They're much
smarter than they sound, -..th
their different weave through
the fingers. They come in blue,
green (pastel tones of course),
in yellow, petal pink, white and
eggSheu, and for only 81. Then
if you want a street glove that's
not so Sportslike, we offer two
choices. One is the white fab
ric glove with ratine cuffs, and
a V-Shaped band in color, in
lipstick red or green, a grand
idea to carry out in accessories
for white dresses. There's a
coarse mesh glove, too, with
flared cuff and cording on the
cuff. It comes in white, egg
shell or black, and each OF
these are 81 a pair.

Though perhaps. through weary

Which once touched your hearts

AS s Usually the case with
sG1A rock-crushers, after the
hand had been played North
South were told that each Of
them could have done better
with another declaration. Bid
ding went: South, 2 Diamonds:
North, 2 Hearts; South, 2
Spades; North, 3 Hearts;
South, 4 No Trumps; North, S
Hearts; South. No Trumps;
North, 6 Diamonds, ending
bidding.
The opening lead was the 6
of clubs. The declarer knew
that East must hold one of the
three honors missing or the @
would have been led. He
played low from dummy. East
played the 10, and the K won
the trick.
There are innumerable ways
in which the declarer may play
the hand, but the method Used
offered the best chances to
pick up an extra trick. The
Ace of spades was led. Dummy
ruffed a low spade. The of
diamonds was led. The lone j
covered, and declarer's . lost
to the K.
Thinking that the declarer
might want to cross-ruff, West
led back his 7 of diamonds. De-
clarer's won the trick. He led
his lone Ace of hearts. Then he
led a low trump. Dummy's last
trump won. Upon leads of dunn
my's K and @ of hearts the
declarer discarded his last low
spade and his only losing club.
Of the nine tricks played one
had been lost to the K of dia-
monds. In his hand the declarer
held the good K of spades, the
Ace of clubs and two long
trumps. He spread his hand
after leading the last club from
dummy. He had fulfilled his
small slam contract with ease,
but he could not possibly have
made a grand slam at that
declaration.
The two declarations at
which better scores might have
been made-that is according
to the kibitzers-Were no
trumps and hearts, not because
a grand slam could result, but
because both of those suggested
declarations counted more per
point.
If played at no trumps the
following tricks can be made:
Two spades. three hearts, two
clubs, 4 diamonds, II tricks
total. You may select which
trick you wish opponents to
win in addition to the one dia-
mond that nothing can prevent
them from winning. At hearts
a diamond and a trump trick
must be lost. Six-Diamonds was
the best possible declaration.

Breath of Song
The Grecian Helen, loveliest Of
her land,
Long, long has vanished from
the world she graced,
For any life is but a grain of
sand;
Yet still in song she lives, the

Atlantis lies somewhere beneath
the tide;
When that fair land sank down
beneath the wave,
Who knows what beauty and
what laughter died?
But song has glimpsed them
through their watery
grave.

All women are interested in
beauty. No woman living, no
matter what her age, is dis
dainful of advice which seeks
to keep her beautiful, or which
is designed to make her more
beautiful than she already is.
Apropos Of which, let me
quote from the justly famous
journal of Marie Bashkirtseff,"
a woman who was singularly
clever at nothing as we'll as ap-
praising her own emotions.
Let anyone put me in bad
humor," she writes in her diary
in 1874; "let me be dissatisfied
with anything; let me be tired
and adieu to my beauty! It
is only when I am happy and
tranquil that I am charming"

This bit of self-revelation
can be taken as a beauty re-
cipe-one that every woman
might well paste inside her hat.
It's worth more than carloads
of rouge, lipstick and grease
paint combined.
For what it brings out so
clearly is the emphasis that
should, in all considerations of
beauty, be placed upon the
mind.
Yes, a tranquil mind makes
for beauty. ContrariWise, a
worried mind makes for the
lack of it. And always telltale
in this respect are the eyes!
Worry never leads to any,
thing worthwhile, anyway. All
it does is to interfere with
happiness and peace of mind,
and in the end it causes Sleep

lids and Sagging cheeks.
