THE
TIDE RETURNS
BY VILLA Mae bradford

1 At dusk that evening. Dave VIII
bert found himself in Burnell. q
fairly-large town, thirty-five miles
from Vernon. He made a neat APP
lpearance in his clean blue-striped
trousers and pale green shirt
which a kind stranger had given
him. He sauntered about the post
office. artfully listening to the va
rious conN ersations.
"yeah," a tall, slim fellow was
saying: II hear that Hornsby
guys got lot OF dough. He'll be
apt to put out fat reward for the
capture OF this Wilbert Negro.
Wish | could lay eyes on him..
Meantime, Or. vanZyle lowered
over the slowly wasting body OF
lovely Shirley Hornsby.
Doctor, what can we do?' Mrs.
Hornsby gasped. shes worse, is

said. doubtfully. I'm expecting

"All right, dear" the mother
said; You may see Bruce. but
you are going to be all right. You
can't go away"
In an instant. Bruce was kneel-
ing at the bedside OF the girl he /
adored. He saw her slowly slipping
away from him. Why had this
happened. he thought.
Bruce. Bruce" she whispered,
Il do love you 50 much, and

President Spoke To
 Veterans To-day
tContinued from Page D

You have heard it said that we must restore prosperity. You have heard some kind people say that the country is distinctly better off from material point of view than it was last year. I am inclined to agree with them. Other people, who fail to think things through, forget that one cause of the de- pression which we are beginning to leave behind, was the very exist ence of hundreds of thousands Of men, women and children who have been and continue to be a definite drag against the return of prosperity.
 It must remain our constant ob- jective to eliminate the causes of depression and the drags on pros- perity. It will cost money to do this. In the spending of this money we must have due regard for the good credit of the gov- ernment of the United States That means that we cannot spend at once or in any given year all that We could usefully spend.
 Care for Needy Comes First
 I mentioned once upon a time that we must do first things first; the care of the disabled, the sick, the destitute and the starving . is the first thing. To this the veterans of American wars give their ap- proval in agreement with the over whelming majority of our other citizens.
 I make this statement in regard to the veterans of America not only because I am confident of their patriotism and their under standing of our national needs, but also for two other reasons. The first is that our federal govern ment and our state governments have given to them many priv i1eges not accorded to other citi- zens, and the other reason is that it has been amply demonstrated that the veterans of the World war, to-day in the prime of life, are better off; from the point of view of employment and of annual in- come than the average of any other great group of our citizens.
 Let these facts, let this great monument-this veterans hospital and the other institutions of their kind throughout the country serve as a symbolic and bold de- nial of any careless statement that the United States does not take care of those who have served it in war-and as a symbolic af- firmance of our belief in the un- deriving patriotic willingness of our veterans to put first things first.

Scathing Replies Are Made TO Alcorn- Walcott Charges

Walcott. one of five senators op- posed for reflection by the Ameri- can Federation of Labor, in an ad- dress at Winsted. termed the New Deal lis creating a vicious circle with the result that we are getting nowhere"
 The increase in taxation essen- tial to support the program of the present administration" he said, necessarily offsets any benefits that might be derived from the ef- forts of the government to restore purchasing power. It is im- perative that the democratic ma. jorities in the senate and house of representative be reduced in order to return to those bodies their leg islative prerogatives and to insure the serious and thoughtful con- sideration of the measures that will be presented to the congress which meets in January"
 Maloney. addressing a home- town gathering at Meriden. called upon Walcott to explain his refer ence to the recovery program as "a grab bag"
 T am hopeful" he said. "that within the next few days he may give some indication of what he means by 'grab-bag.'
 "To me it recalls the great na- tional grab bag of tho closing years of the administration of Sen, Waicott's close friend. President Hoover. Of course the plans were made in secret. as most of the loans were later made In secret. and Senator Walcott of his own accord or by presidential di. rcction. introduced the reconstruc. ton finance corporation bill.
 "It proved to be a grab.bag 70 the extent of nearly billion and a half dollars. and one of the first hands to set Into tho grab. bag, rather secretly. was that Of Vice. President Dawes. The purpose ef the Erab-bag was Co preserve the l|nanclal ln1titutions to which ths |.*I=. ||.HH t..XR"
