"You?" The agent appraised him from head to foot and laughed de- risively. Listen, buddy, who're
 you trying to kid? You look more like a stumble bum."
 Boyd was taken aback. Looking down, he saw that the man was right. Funny that he had never noticed it before. Expensive suit, but it was stained and needed
 pressing. Shoes scuffed and worn at the heels, but they could be shined, A two days growth of beard, but that could be shaved off. All he lacked was 8 few cents but it might as well have been a fortune.
 "But--" Boyd started to pro- test, then he saw the futility of
 argument, and sudden hot tears burned his cheeks. Turning on his heels, he walked out. The fruits of victory snatched from beneath
 his very nose, and by the lack of
 a pitifully small amount of money. AS he was about to retrace his
 way outside, the agent called, Lis- ten, mister. If you can get cleaned
 up and get back here before we
 can get some one else, I'll send you.
 But not otherwise. Heaven knows, consulting engineers don't grow
 on bushes"
 Boyd's eyes, now lacklustre. evinced no hope at this gesture in tended to soften the blow. Where in the world would he be able to get enough money to make himself presentable in that short time, when for days he hadn't been able to find enough to stay his hunger. No, he would have to carry out
 his plans as if he had never heard of a job. Death would just be a bit more bitter, if it could be, at | this last jibe of fate. Dejectedly, { his footsteps took the familiar route to the park, a route they I would never again be forced to 1 follow.
 Boyd sank wearily into the lank | tembrace of 8 park bench and gripped the iron hand rests. Fac ing west, he could see the shadows | lengthening on the grass. He de- termined that when the shadow of
 a tall poplar finally touched the
 border of the sidewalk he would arise, walk to the boulevard and
 deliberately step in front of one of the heavy busses. That would
 make it accidental death. which his insurance policy required.
 Inch by inch the shadow came
 nearer the walk. It was within .
 hands breadth when Boyd could
 stand it no longer. Rising to stride
 to the boulevard, he suddenly
 paused at reflected glint on the
 ground. The peaked tip of the
 poplar's shadow, outlined by Boyd's
 ill-omened sun, was pointing like Q
 finger to something on the ground
 beside the walk - a brilliant,
 gleaming object. Curiously he stopped and picked it up.
 UnSelieving, a strange expression
 crossed his face as he looked at 1t.
 He ran back to the main street,
 stormed into a barber shop, sat down, and shouted: "Quicki A shave, a shoe shine, send for the tailor to press this suit. And hurry before 1t gets dark!"
 The barber gaped in amusement
 as Boyd continued gleefully. 'The sun has brought me luck.
 See ?" F Holding out his hand, he display ed a shiny silver dollar.

By GLENN REILLY

The bright rays of the western sun shone friendly down upon all men alike that fall afternoon. Perhaps alone out of Heveral mill lion people in the city Roderick Boyd repudiated it's genial radi- ance and mentally cursed it.
 To Boyd it was not bringer of happiness, but a harbinger of his own approaching dissolution. For Boyd had determined to die when that same sun had flickered it's last gleam over the western sky line.
 He smiled wry smile at the irony of it. How symbolic, that sun. It was just like his life had been-weak and of little import in the beginning, rapidly waxing bril- liant, but destined to ultimate ig- nominy.
 'Is it possible" he asked him. self, that a university man, an able consulting engineer, a fairly wealthy man as I once was, not so long ago, could have gone so far down the scale in so short a time ? Penniless, friendless, jobless and with a wife i'll and requiring ex- pensive treatment?"
 It had been a fast path down. First he had sold his furniture, then his home, then even their per- sonal belongings-Mary's jewelry, his own collection of rare coins.
 He didn't mind for himself. It was Mary that he worried about. Soon she must have that operation or know that forever after it would be too late to be cured. So he had planned to die.
 An insurance policy on which he had kept up payments was still in force, and his demise would insure that Mary was cured at least. She would get a thousand dollars, and he knew that the operation would cost $4OO. That left $500 till she was able to get work.
 Yes, that beau geste was all that he had left to offer her, the only way in which he could thank her for her loyalty through the hard times, the months of actual pow erty.
 He walked over to the main the last time at the bulletin board outside the employment agency. As usual. nothing, just as he had dis covered countless times before. He rubbed his hand over the sprout- ing bristles on his chin and moved slowly on.
 He had taken but a few steps when he heard the door of the agency open and the scratching of chalk on the board. From force of long habit he turned and scanned the notice over the heads of the usual agency hangers-on.

DAILY SHORT STORY
 FINGER OF LUCK Broken in Spirit, Boyd Resolved to Die at Sun down, but Sudden Shadow Brought Him Fortune.

His heart missed several beats and he blinked his yes to see if they were deceiving him. Outlined whitely against the black of the board he read: 'Wanted--Ca Capable engineer; $20O a month" With an incredulous cry he forced himself through the ring of men outside the door and strode up to the desk of the personnel man.
 ''That-that job as engineer. Where is 1t? I'm a consulting en- gineer. Will you give me a chance?"

Needs Popping Up.

From the Scranton Times.
President Roosevelt is giving serious
thought to how to stimulate the con-
struction industry of the country. It
is in this industry and the industry
that builds machinery and other cap
ital goods that the bulk of the coun-
try's unemployment lies. While the
$4,000, 100000 public works program
is expected to help materially, still
something more has to be done. With
this thought in mind, it is reported
that the President is prepared to ask
Congress to appropriate s250,000,0 900
that can be loaned at low interest
rates for home rebuilding and home
repair. If this amount of money can
be utilized, and the opinion prevails
that it can, a goodly number of
craftsmen should be given employ
ment.
In addition the President wants the
bonds of the Home Owners Loan
Corporation guaranteed and perhaps
the functions Of this corporation ex-
tended so as to provide for the loan
ing Of money for the building of new
homes. Surveys being made through
out the country are expected to give
a fairly accurate idea as to how
really pressing is the question of pro-
viding new homes for working people
with little capital or who own debt
free lots, or the building of residences
for rental at moderate rates.

force-all described by the Naz
authorities as being required and
desired for purely defensive purposes.
The French are resolutely opposed
to the German program.
Obviously If the Anglo-German ne
gotiations, which are thought to be
supported by Italy, are to produce
results, political concessions and COM
promises are inevitable. 1t is precisely
from such "entangling" European un-
derstandings that President Roosevelt
intends to keep this country immune.
When he withdrew our special Geneva
Ambassador, Norman H. Davis, from
further participation in disarmament
discussions several months ago it was
announced that the United States
would stand aside as long as the con-
versations were interlocked with po-
litical considerations. 1t Is the whole
worlds secret that Europe Graves to
persuade us to join in some form OF
guaranteeing peace through security
or consultative pacts or other devices
for involving us in Old World affairs.
From the American standpoint, 1t
boils down to this: When Europe Is
ready to stop talking politics and pre-
pare to concentrate on disarmament,
this Government and people are
willing, as they have always been, to
sit at the conference table.

House despite the fact that Repre-.
sentative Patman, author Of the bill
for the bonus payment, hung back for
q long time, as did other Democrats
favoring bonus payments. This
troublesome piece Of legislation has,
however, again come to the surface.
The petition for the discharge Of the
committee from further consideration
Of the bill so that it may be brought
before the House for a vote was
signed by 81 Democrats, 43 Repub-
licans and Farner-Laborites.
President Roosevelt's influence, as
party leader, with the House DEM
ocrats is very great; it has been
demonstrated again and again. The
President is justified in his stand
against this legislation at this time.
He is right because the Government
credit should not be compelled to meet
this extra burden at this time. He
Is right because it would be wrong
to start the printing presses turning
out greenbacks. Once that process
is begun, there is no telling where
it will end. The one sure thing is
that the end will bring ruin and des-
pair to every working man in the
country. Furthermore, to pay the vet
erans in greenbacks with deprecated
value would be an unfair way Of
dealing with the veterans themselves.
Should the House turn against the
Presidents leadership In this matter
and pass the bill it would still have
to pass the Senate. 1t seems in
creditable that the Senate would mus
ter a majority for its passage. The
Senate decisively defeated a soldiers
bonus bill in 1882, when the bonus
army" was literally clamoring at the
Capitol doors for immediate payment.

"No Enhancing Alliances"

Current disarmament" activities in
Europe make it pertinent to recall on
this two hundred and second ami
versary of Washington's birthday
that the first Presidents creed of
mo entangling alliances" remains, to
the qualification of the American
people, a definite feature of foreign
policy under the Roosevelt admins
tration.
At the present moment the Euro
pean powers, mainly on the initiative
of Great Britain, are going through
the motions of attempting to find
some basis of armaments agreement
mutually acceptable to France and
Germany. Capt. Anthony Eden,
British lord privy seal. is now in
conference at Berlin with Chancellor
Hitler, and later will proceed to Paris
and Rome. The British government
hopes that as result of these various
direct and personal contacts enough
preliminary work can be accomplished
to justify the reconvening of the
Geneva Conference.
The bone of contention is Ger
many's demand for rearmament on
the basis of an army of 100000 effec-
tives, with corresponding equipment,
now denied her by the Versailles
treaty. including a formidable air

The Veterans Bonus.

Members Of the House will have
to choose soon between two strong
political forces, the vociferous soldiers
bonus advocates and President RooSe-
welt. Because 145 House members
have signed petition to discharge
the Ways and Means Committee from
further consideration of the Patman
bill to pay 50, 400, ,0oo, 900 in greenbacks
to retire the adjusted service certifi-
Gates now held by veterans of the
World War, a vote in that body on
the measure seems probable on March
II. Through Speaker Rainey the
President has made it known that
he is against the payment Of the
bonus at this time and will not ap-
prove legislation for that purpose.
This is merely another way Of saying
that he will veto the bill.
With an election in the ofing, and
primaries for their denominations to
begin within a few weeks, q num-
ber of the members of the House do
not look forward with pleasure to
voting on the bonus issue. The issue
has been showed to the fore in the
