When the knock came Hester ad-

went out and closed the door.

The man was furious. Come,

The frightened girl made no move
to go, but Lola backed against the
door and faced her.

was livid.

the girl, wildly.

The mans anger blazed. ITO hell

flung himself out of the room.
Lola gathered the sobbing girl into

before she spoke in her throaty voice,
Hester, you've raised family-dld

"Oh. nom, mine was all born a

Lola's next words were tremulous.
"Mine was born dead-five years ago
but l often see some lovely young
girl such as I hope she might have
become-if she had lived"
A knock at the door interrupted and
Hester answered it.
A slim girl in a green sport outfit

in nervouse haste. Miss Lola. want

Lola met the wide blue eyes re-

responsive, Go ahead"

I'm Betty, your understudy."
Lola impatiently waved Hester into
the background and drawled sarcas-
tically. Well that's the most amazing

up into the eager face beside her.

tween Germany and Great Britain prior to the World War. At that time limitation treaties were in existence but certain stability had been achieved, as far as sea power was concerned, by a more or less general acceptance of the British policy of maintaining a navy as strong as the fleets of any other two countries combined.
 Then in 1908 this arrangement was upset when the German reichstag adopted program providing for the construction of four capital ships each year until 1911. The British were immediately alarmed. The First Lord of the British Admiralty proposed that Great Britain should lay down six dreadnaughts for every four that Germany began. Public opinion. however, was not satisfied. It demanded twice as many new ships as the Germans planned to build every year, and the popular slogan was We want eight and we won't wait" Eventually the Govern rnent had to yield and the ensuing competition did much to embitter Anglo-Cierman relations in preparation for the war. t
 Subsequent events proved that the German naval program adopted on the insstence of Admiral von Tirpitz was a costly mistake. It gave Germany no advantage, since the British were amply able to outbud it, and it helped to create disastrous antagonism. Japan seems to be on | the verge of similar mistake Indeed, the consequences of a great Japanese naval program at this time may be serious, since it would challenge not one but two countries, both immensely wealthier than Japan and both determined to be in position to protect their interests against such threat Chairman Vinsons five for three carries tragic admonition that the Japanese Government cannot afford to ignore.

MAKING CRIME UNPOPULAR.

The seizure of more than .75O criminal suspects throughout the nation by Federal Agents during the past weekend evdentaly timed to synchron- ize with the opening sessions yesterday of the National Crime Confernce, called by Attorney Gen eral Cummings to convene in Washington, D. c.
 Along with several Public Enemies No. 1, many less known vicious criminals have been apprehended through the Department of Justice, and the new cooperation between this department and State and local law enforcement agencies under the new Ad- ministraton
 The beneficial results of this unreenting on crime ncacuable. It is not only important that active criminals be caught and their depredations stopped but the moral effect young potential criminals is even more important During the later hectic twenties the arch criminal actually aggrandized Thousands of American youths secretly or openly admired the criminal aristocracy that Prohibition had knighted and made wealthy and powerful.
 Repeal did much to take the profit out of crime. However the more vicious turned to Kidnapping, dope traffic and other crimes The Administration through Attorney General Cummings has vigorously gone about the business of stamping out crime throughout the nation and making it "unsmart" to be a criminal.
 From the sessions of the National Crime Con- ference in progress much good will come in establishing closer cooperation between the various law enforcement agencies.
 Through widespread pursuit and punishment of criminals and consistent examples of you can't get away with it" many on the borderljne of crime will turn from it and find success and happiness r productive work.

Medicine Sixty Years Ago.
(New York -Telegram.o

Here is a interviewed who varies the pat tern of how he, being 80, is still going strong.
 He dips back sixty years and brings up out of his youth measuring rod of our vast progress, He is Dr. Alfred Meyer, founder of the tuberculosis sanitarium at Montefore Hospital, largest insttu-
 on for chronic diseases, fifty years old December
 He told Lionel Houser, World-Telegram writer: When I was student at the old P. and s. we little children die the most brutally horrible deaths of diphtheria. They were wholly conscious and they died slowly of stranguation We didn't have the anti-toxin then We had no such thing as trained nurses. Who did the nursing? The scrubwomen. It at Heidelberg that pr. Roller discovered local anesthesia about 1884 II remember the great excitement here'
 In this mans life there have been prodiges of medical progress Yet the surface seems only to have been scratched Beyond ant-toxns and an- esthesia lie unexplored continents of research the human body and mind.
 Further progress is bound to be increasingly rapid. But there is urgent demand for flung new liberation of research talent and genius from the daily grist of money making in private prac- tice The great difficulty in raising money just to support the minimum humane necessities of hos pitals shows the necessity of entirely new provision of grandose support of organized medical research correlated a national and even inter- national basis in for bodily well-being and against human misery.

"Five to Three" in Navies.
(Kansas City Starr. |.

The declaraton of Chairman Vinson of the House Naval Affairs Committee that he would insist upon the construction by the United States of five war
 ships for every three undertaken by Japan in case the current naval treaties are scrapped aptly illus trates what is almost certain Ito happen if the limitations upon armaments removed. The whole situation of course, recalls the naval be-
