Delicious cake" said Judith, new
note of confidence in her voice, then
looked up. Delphy's back had
Strengthened like a ramrod.
"He'ah comes them white trash
now" she said and Judith. leaning
forward, saw the Scoggins family ap-
preaching.
Judith left the table, told Delphy
to clear it quickly and met the trio
at the front door. She glanced in
astonishment at the shimm.r of
sequins as Mrs. Scoggins removed a
rain-sodden coat, and noticed in a
second glance that her pretty, vapid,
face had been. thickly coated with
powder to hide tear stains.
Tommy, in long trousers and his
first white collar. was very serious.
Judith couldn't tell whether it was
an expression worn for the solemnity
of the occasion or the dignity of his
new clothes.
And then she turned to Scoggins,
senior. He wore the shabby town suit
he had probably bought for his big
adventure when he left Arkansas
years before, and had saved for mo-
mentous occasions. From his inner
pocket he was drawing his copy Of
the contract she had made with him
three months before.
Judith WINGED. He had come, as
ella would have said. ITO put the

was going to prove that she had

She realized he was using his ora
torical voice reserved for important
occasions-"we have gathered here
this evening to tell you-"
please sit down." Judith inter-
rupted. She felt her knees were going
to buckle under her.
Mrs. Dale" Scoggins repeated the
opening salutation of the speech he
was intent upon making. He alone
of the trio had remained standing,
I'VE have gathered here this evening
to tell you that we have seen a great
light.
I'm deepest hum-hum-hum-"
Humiliation, prompted Tommy in
stage whisper
Humiliation We have come to tell
you that the sword of the Lord has

Judith had interrupted one of Mr.
Scoggins' declamationS, she didn't
intend to interrupt another, but she
did wish he would get to the point.

tones from his tongue. Occasionally

the other, he said-'Srhe sword of the
Lord bnrned the a.ar Of Mammon.
So will I burn this sontract."
There was a flash of fire, and
Scoggins, suddenly shuman, dropped
the burning contrast on the floor
while Delphy shufnef away for pan
of water,
Judith was hyst4rical An over
whelming desire to, laugh. an over
whelming desire 10 cry and an
overwhelming sense of relief each
fought for supremacy. Scoggins saw
the tears in her Eyes and nodded
with satisfaction, then lapsing into
his natural tone of: voice, said:
Land sakes, Miss Judy, didn't you
think the Mexicand had crossed the
border with big guns when them there
drums started explpdin'?"
Judith was relieved at his normal
tone and started talking with anima.
tion. She could see Delphy standing
by the kitchen table. eyeing the re-
mains of her upside down cake as
if trying to decide whether or not
the Scoggins family were worthy of it.

whole sentences would remain in
Judith's mind, such as

banks of the Rio Diablo, destitute,
beggars, starving. He shared his food
with us and then he lifted us up
and gave us a chance to be human
beings again."
There was more of this extolling
Big Tom and Big Toms unselflsh
generosity.
"And what did I do for him?"
barked the little man suddenly. It
listened to the serpent's voice. The
woman tempted me with riches and

Bill at Ickes Request on
P. W. A. Projects.

Penalties would be imposed on con-
tractors constructing projects with
public works funds who employed the
so-called kick back" system with
their workers, under a bill now being
drafted by the Justice Department at
Secretary Ickes' request.
The "kick-back" system is one
whereby pay rolls are padded by list
ing workers at higher wages than they
actually receive in their pay envelopes.
or forcing them to refund part of
their wages to retain their positions.
The division of investigation Of the
public works is investigating numer-
Gus complaints that this system Is be-
ing employed and inspectors have
been assigned to several projects to
prevent its use.
The Secretary, who is public works
administrator, singled out the kick
back" system as highly undesirable
practice in his recent sharply-worded
speech before a meeting of the Asso-
ciated General Contractors.
He has announced several times
that every effort will be made by the
division Of investigation and the pub
Lie works inspection department 10
Sorestau the use Of the practice.
