Her strong lovely fingers grasped
his hand, squeezing slightly, slightly
cool.
Then he rose, without breaking the
grasp and leaned over and kissed
her. 1t was brief, honest kiss, that
held much in meaning and no desire.
kissing her like that, he felt he had
drawn through his lips her fame and
her bright, dazzling sureness; that he
had made her armor his own. Vague
ly, too, it occurred to him how far
away Richmond was, and the nights
in cars, troubled and passionate, with
bugs hurting straight like bullets
through the lowered windshield on
the sharp, green aromatic air-and
the night, above all, when Mary-Lou

her eyes, and when they stopped and
she sat up again he glimpsed on the

Mary Lou well enough but the quiet

INSURED CREDIT
MAY: Be ASKED:
BY PEEK

NEW YORK, Nov. 2 U.NS0.-
Four schools of thought, persistent
and refusing to unite, are holding
up decision on the type Of Gov
eminent credit to be given Amer.
lean exporters. George N. Peek.
special adviser to the President on
foreign trade, told the National
Foreign Trade Convention today.
One suggestion. which calls for
Government credit insurance, will
be proposed TO the next Congress
by Mr.. Peek if he finds such
action generally favored. The
present export-import banks have
no authority to insure credit.
He enumerated the four schools
as follows:
Those who believe the exchange
problem is the principal handicap
to foreign trade, those who feel
governmental assistance in in
termediate and long-term finan-
cling is the chief requirement,
those who favor credit insurance
and those, particularly smaller
exporters, who want govern
mental assistance in short-term
financing.
He said the central problem in
foreign trade is that of credits,
but on the solution there is q
wide difference of opinion.
He suggested if Government
credit insurance is agreed upon,
it be patterned after the British
system, but not go as far.
He urged the convention to
name a committee to advise with
him and with a committee of
the American Bankers ASsocia-
ton on the question of govern
mental assistance on short-term
financing.

LOW IN TEREST
DEMANDED BY
PRESIDENT

President Roosevelt is deter
mined that usurious rates for
mortgages shall not continue and
that the construction Of new
homes throughout the country
shall henceforward be on a less
expensive basis.
This fact came to light whcr
James A. Moffett. Federal Housing
Administrator, made public cor.
respondence between himself and
the President in connection with
issuance of the long-awaited rules
for the mutual mortgage plan"
contained in the national housing
act.
These regulations, to be pub
liShed in a series Of bulletins, bear
out exclusive advance information
carried by The Washington Times
in its series of articles on the
Federal Housing Administration.
Flags Practices
The new mortgages, to be in
sured by the housing agency. but
made available by private finan-
cial institutions, can be used to
refinance existing trusts on a
home or assist in the purchase
Of a new home.
In setting the rate for new
construction at per cent. and
the rate for refinancing at 5l2
per cent, President Roosevelt
took occasion to lambast current
mortgage practices. He said, in
o letter to Mr.. Moffett:
"We all know that even In
those sections where first mort
gage money has been available
at reasonable costs, home
ownership has had to struggle
under the handicap Of ex-
Orbitant second mortgage in
terest rates. Almost everybody
knows of practices far too
widespread where lenders have
demanded and received 8 per
cent, 10 per cent and IL per
cent on first mortgage and
much higher rates ON second
mortgages.
ASKE LOW INTEREST
."TheSe methods and practices
IN the field of home financing
have been the opposite Of CON-
mendable.
II think, therefore, that you
should announce the program
for the whole country on the
basis Of basic maximum Of
per cent interest"

COURT DELAYS
SENTENCING OF
OIL SWINDLER
La Shar Gets Until Dec. |
to Settle Affairs in
Denver.

John E. La Shar, a small, bald
headed man of so, who a jury found
guilty last night Of using the mails
to defraud, will not be sentenced
until Dec. l.
Today, when he appeared before
Federal Judge Robert G. Baltzell, he
pleaded successfully for postpone
ment of sentence until that time so
that he could go to his home in
Denver to settle his financial affairs
before beginning his penitentiary
sentence.
Though he had testified that he
once was a millionaire, La Shar
told Judge Baltzen today that he
was "penniless," and that he wanted
to sell "a very little real estate
which he owned in Denver so that
he could provide for his wife.
District Attorney Val Nolan, ar
guing for immediate sentencing Of
La Shar, referred to his $1,000 bail,
set by United States commissioner
in Denver, as straw bond"
Faces 40 Year Term
Judge Baltzell, who has it in his
power to send lie Shar to Jail for
forty years, five for each of the
eight counts in the indictment, said
he had received from a resident of
South Bend, Ind, postcard stating
that he believed La Shar was the
man who had sold him fraudulent
stock in the Giltin- Hurricane Min
ing Company twenty years ago.
Here, La Shar was accused of SELL
ing fraudulent oil stock to several
indianapolis residents, including
two Roman Catholic priSest.
In his brief speech to the court,
La Shar admitted that he had been
under indictment for fraudulent
stock sales in Denver, but added that
nothing ever had come of it.
BootIegger Amazes Court
Alvah Reynolds, Vallonia, pleaded
not guilty to charges of bootlegging.
He amazed the court with an eX-
PLANTATION that, while he had bought
whisky from a still and had sold it,
he was not a bootlegger because he
had sold it in bulk rather than in
small amounts.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IT, The
Republican platform on which
Michigan candidates rode through
the election Endorsed today as the
basis of national platform for
1896 by Senator Arthur H. Vanden-
berg (Rep., Mich), whose victory
elevated him to a position Of party
leadership and presidential timber
That platform, succinctly de-
scribed by Senator Vandenberg is:
81 stand for social responsibility
without Socialism"
Legislative examples of this prin-
ciple, in Senator Vandenberg' S
mind, are the deposit insurance law,
which he helped formulate, and the
railroad retirement pension law.
That" he said, referring to the
platform, lis the correct Republican
attitude if we are to claim any kim
ship with Abraham Lincoln and
Theodore Roosevelt"
1t is this attitude, he believes,
which will permit the Republicans
in congress to go along with Presi-
dent Roosevelt on all reforms which
coform to their ideas of social
responsibility" and still leave them
free to oppose those they consider
tending toward state socialism.
Despite the fact that under his
leadership Republicans won five
new congressional seats and the
state slate in Michigan, Senator
Vandehberg is reluctant to discuss
party politics.
He has refused to join in the urge
for reformation of the party al
though this has been asked by
other and less successful members
Of the party.
In the senate itself he findr SEN
