Both girls colored hotly. They
looked at each other, then at
Edward.

you enjoy it?"
"Oh, Edward, it was awful.
We nearly died."

And so it went on for another
hour. Captain Winslow, weary
ing, was replaced by Detective
Hurley, who went all over the
questions again. But he received
the same answers.
Then Assistant Inspector Nc
Cauley tried, but with no bet
ter success.
Either the truth serum was a
failure or Tim Stokes was in
nocent.
When the examination had
lasted for three hours and forty
five minutes, Inspector Anderson
held up his hand.
II think we've had enough"
he said. "Stokes either can't or
won't tell us anything more.
Doctor, I want to thank you
very much for coming down
here. The experiment has been
most interesting"
Then Anderson signalled to
the Commissioner, and the two
went over to one corner of the
room, where they talked in un-
dertones for a few minutes.
Then Anderson turned to the
reporters who were hanging on
his every word.
"The Commissioner and I
feel" he began, that, although
this has been a most interesting
experiment, it has been, never
theless, nothing more than an
experiment. Scopolamin is still
too much in it's infancy for us
to regard it as an infallible test.
Later it may be better devel-
oped
In spite of Stokes negative
reaction to the test, both the
Commissioner and I think that
the case will have to go to
jury for a final decision. And
so I hereby charge Stokes with
the wilful and Intentional mur-
der Of Sonia Paige!"

occasional kiss, and you know

The door closed. The two
girls confronted each other.
Pippin shrugged:
WE'LL guess that will keep
the old haloes on straight for
a day or two more"
Kathleen gave the lovely
flowers vicious shove. Tears
rushed to her eyes.
II never want to see an
orchid again"
Both were shaken and ner-
vous.
Pippin walked home in a
tumult. At the Presidio wall
she paused and looked down
through wistful trees to the
evening waters They were
quiet with a deep rhythmic
peace. Life should be serene
like that-beautiful. Suddenly
she remembered the night she
stood on this hill and Bill
kissed her good-by; held her
close in his arms while he
kissed her. She loved it! She
wanted it. Her heart famed.
That couldn't be wrong-a

AAA Tackles Dr0uth
Stock Feed Problem

Washington, Oct. l9.-R)-1n an
effort to check forced sales Of cattle
throughout the drouth-hit west, the
farm administration Friday worked
on q feed procurement program which
officials predicted would be complet-
ed by Monday or Tuesday.
Plans under discussion included the
probable heavy purchase Of feed con-
centrates - because officials have
about concluded attempts at move
ment Of large quantities Of loose feeds
into range areas, such as Texas. would
be impracticable- and the possible i'm
portation OF feed.
The administration was known to be
anxious for speedy Inauguration Of the
program because Of shortages Of feed

result, unless action came quickly, In
such heavy forced sales Of livestock as
to leave important areas without sur

At LEADER CHARGE
OF RELIEF WASTE
Says Administrative Cost Is
5.24 Per Cent, Not so Per
Cent Of Total
Approximately 200 persons attended

Approximately 200 persons attended
the Democratic rally at Sterling
Thursday night arranged by Noodle
Club No. l. Speakers were Thomas
Burke, VIM. M. Schantz and James E
Thompson. legislative candidate, and
Sam Clark.
Emphasizing that 1t is not DEM
ocratic issue, Burke said the people
nevertheless should have the truth
about the relief situation. Challeng-
ing statements appearing recently in
The Leader. political newspaper,
Burke said the cost Of administering
cash relief was 5.24 per cent and this
figure also included the cost of distri-
buting free commodities to people on
the relief list. Putting it another
way, he said 94.76 of every 81 sent into
the state for relief went to people on
the relief lists.
From April, 1888. to Sept. I. 1884. he
said, $9.640,047.4 in cash was spent
by the relief administration. OF this
sum $4,994, 1851 O5 went to general re-
lief; 81 ,923,O14.75 to work relief and
1901 $780, to direct relief.
In addition. $3,499 ,589.67 went ia
drouth relief, of which $379, 38l.17 was
for work relief and $3,l20.208.50 was
for direct relief.
Added to these sums, he said, were
transient relief, $98,815.l7: education
al relief $413,033.8l and special pro-
grams, $l28, 487.87. Administrative
expense was sos 1892.
On the administrative payroll, he
said are 524 non-relief employees and
228 relief employees.
Commodities distributed by the re-
lief organization, the cost of distribu-
ton being charged to administrative
expense. were: apples, $4,000 lbs;
beans. 10000 lbs; canned beef, $685.
7l2 lbs: butter, 268,470 lbs: cereals,
120.096 lbs; cheese, 62,860 lbs: cotton

salt pork. 270,00O lbs: cotton blankets,
10000; ticking, 68,400 yards.
In its charges leveled against the

serted that go per cent of the money
sent into the state for relief went to

relief is likely to be one government
answer to so-called permanent un-
employment.
This became clear Friday when
disclosed they are testing
methods of work relief in "a labora-
tory" stretching from one end Of the
country to another A survey showed
that 100000 persons-most Of them
heads Of families-are working for re-
lief payments.
Many experts have warned that
the country must expect to have a
large body Of jobless people for
years to come. A dole Is cheaper
than work relief, but FERA officials
ssy the practice of making jobs for
the unemployed maintains morale
better, besides producing public i'm
provements and goods.
The committee that Is planning q
program Of economic security for
President Roosevelt is watching the
FERA venture closely, hoping to find
err answer to chronic joblessness.
State relief administrators may
boost the 100000 total to 2,15O.000-

who recently reported there were

tons.
Public onstruction-main reliance
OF the CWA, which provided jobs for
more than 100000 at one time last
spring-still is the backbone Of relief
work.
The field of activity Is widening
steadily, however. The survey showed
that relief workers, among other
things, are:
Tearing down slums. building
houses for the destitute. repairing
homes in exchange for their use by

Hauptmanns second major court

Of few hours Friday afternoon due
to other official business. The hear

after 4 p. m.
Defense counsel, through the aid Of
two witnesses produced after Haupt-
mann's writ Of habeas corpus was dis
missed in supreme court In the Bronx,
is attempting to introduce new testi-
mony tending to show that Haupt-

The records produced up here and

"show he started work March 81, 1882.
They show further that he worked
only two days in April, 1882"
Breslin's statement was made after
he questioned Remit G. Greulich Of
Passaic, N. j., formerly an account
