BY HELEN DICKSON

Dennis Bradshaw didn't mind selling the old house. He hated the place, and never spent an hour there when he could find another resting place for his golf clubs and portable typewriter, for Dennis was fate's football, c free-lance journal ist. The only aspect of the sale that worried him was the disposal of the old furniture, pictures, and books, not salable, but too good to burn.
 He might never have tackled the job of sorting out the old trunks and boxes if it had not been for a lingering hope that some forgotten valuable might turk in their depths. That hope, standing out brightly against the background of a rainy morning with two rejection slips in the mail, had sent Dennis up to the attic.
 He hauled an old leather trunk into the light of smaller dormer window and unfastened the straps that time had almost welded into the buckles. The odor of the nine- teenth century rose to his nostrils. Gosh, what collection to store away. A pair of faded tapestry cur tains, photographs in red plush frames, a tambourine decorated with pansies painstakingly done in oils, garments lavishly covered with jet, and at the bottom of the trunk a heavy roll of foolscap, tied with faded blue ribbon.
 Sitting on the dusty floor, Dem his united the ribbon, which split with age as his fingers fumbled with the knot. It was manu- script, written on foolscap in his mothers precise, angular hand.
 Now, who?" he asked aloud, would have suspected mother of dabbling in the universal folly?" He cast an indulgent eye over the neatly written paragraphs. His mouth dropped open a little with surprise as ne read
 He sat there, hunched like an Indian, turning page after page. He had stepped back into the gay '90s and was living and loving with people whose blood ran swiftly in spite of the cramping restraints of their voluminous clothing.
 "Gosh," he muttered. "how did she do it? And why in heck did she never publish it? Got cold feet, I'll bet"
 He read on, appraisingly, with a growing purpose in his mind.
 Whats the use of having a pub fisher for an uncle," he reflected, Eff I can't do something with this? ? The old boy thinks I'm just one of those things that happen, but this may jar him awake Now, shall I bring it up to date or type it out as

days to live like Trappist monk. No dates, sister, no dates.
 Actually it was a month before Dennis Bradshaw sat in his uncle's office and waited for the verdict. He was anxious purely from a f- nancial point of view, suffering none of the qualms and sinkings of a parent whose brain child is on the scales.
 The president of the Bradshaw Publishing company tapped the manuscript on his desk with a fate- full finger. 1T have read this story entitled Tides of Life by Dennis Bradshaw, with great interest. It is good. They say every man has one book in him. I am willing to publish this novel on one condi- tion," he paused weightedly. That condition IS that you publish anonymously.
 Dennis jumped up. What the say, uncle, that's a mighty queer stipulation. I can't agree to that. Hang it all, there are other publishers in the world. .'
 Think again." the publisher said, smiling like tired seer. The gaze of his cold gray eyes made his nephew feel like naked bather in an east wind. Are you sure you wish to take this manuscript to some other fim?''
 Dennis collapsed. How much does the old brute know or guess ?'' he wondered.
 "Its a queer stipulation, I re- peat" he said sulkily. But poor devil of free lance has to take whats dished out to him."
 Exactly" The publisher spoke briskly. Just run your eye over this contract and I'll call Moffatt and Miss Sterne to witness your signature"
 When they were alonge again after signing the contract the pub- fisher handed Dennis a cigar.

HALT IN Staying
TRIAL IS REQUESTED
Counsel for Three Boston Men
Petitions U. S. Supreme
Court.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DEDHAM. Mass, Nav 5-The
United States Supreme Court was
asked today to halt the trial Of three
youthful Boston men accused of kill
ing policeman in the hold-up of a
Needham. Mass, bank last February.
In an unusual procedure brought in
behalf of Irving Millen, one of the
trio, the Washington tribunal was
asked whether an appeal now pending
IN habeas corpus proceeding should
not stop the trial, under way for two
weeks in the State court here. Action
by the United States Court would halt
trial of all three.
Accused and on trial with Irving is
his brother, Murton. and their friend,
Abe Faber. university graduate.
The Supreme Court received the pc
tition at its conference today and Is
expected to decide Monday whether
it will take jurisdiction. Representa-
tives of the Attorney General of Mas
sachusetts, whose Office was appealed
to by District Attorney Edmund r.
Dewing, opposed delay
Numerous moves have been made by
the lawyers for the three defendants
to have jurisdiction changed. At the
outset they sought transfer to another
section Of the State. This was denied
and trial without jury was requested
and also denied. They followed with
motion to have the case taken from
the State court and tried before a
Federal judge
When this failed an appeal on the
habaes corpus proceeding was taken
to the Circuit Court of Appeals where
it is now pending and it is on this
proceeding that the petition in be-
half of Irving was presented.

HIGHER D. c. TAXES
FOR RELIEF SEEN

quired Habit of Looking to
Government for Living.

Only the generosity" OF the Federal
Government in handing out relief
money Is saving local taxpayers from
having to carry the burden of sup
porting 10000 or more persons now
on charity lists. according to Rufus
S. Lusk. secretary of the Washington
Taxpayers Protective Association.
In statement issued last night,
LuSk said:
When the Federal Government
stops handing out in such generous
fashion relief money in the National
Capital, either the taxpayers may see
their taxes increase some $4,000. 900
annually. or else the city will have on
Its hands some 10000 to so 900 people
who have acquired the habit of look
ing to the Government for a living
neither prospect is pleasant"
Ihe statement was made .lter an
analysis of the cost of local relief.
Lusk said. He continued:
Relief for May will cost 81. 600 600

totaled s48,5O0.
