When she came to she was on a
dark couch in brightly lighted

voices somewhere nearby. A thin,
alert man in spcctac!cs came TO
stand over her.

Better take it easy. You're all

shock"
She said faintlT, "Edward?"

She closed her eyes. For the
moment she was too shaken to
question him further. Just what
"knockcd up" might mean, ut
tered in that cheerful tone, she
did not dare to ask. Doctors were
notably optimistic when discussing
such matters with another patient.
She lay back, spent. Edward
was hurt and shc herself badly
shaken, although the doctor as
surcd her there were no bones
broken. Mr.. Van Solver, he had
added, shading his voice to the
proper note Of respect for that
golden name, had thrown himself
in front Of Boots. His hip APP
pcared to have sustained a slight
fracture, although the car had not
passed over him.
Boots shuddered. "My mother
no one has tclephoned her, l
hope?" she begged.
Mr.. Van Solver had been con-
scious, she was told. He had in
sisted that DR.. La Fargo take
charge. Mr.. Van Solver had said
that Mrs. Raeburn was not to be
alarmed and had instructed them
to telephone a friend Of his-a

dun in his hand. Mr.. Fenway
would be here directly.
Denis came in q moment later.
The color came up in Boots face.
"Whcre's Edward?".
"At the New Martin hospital"
she told him simply. "He-he was

ly, in snatches and tormented by
dreams. Presently half-hearteC
sun came through the clouds and
she walked to church beside Miss
Florida, along the frost-rimmed
pavements. The well-worn family
sedan had collapsed in line of duty
some months before. The Rae
burns walked now, whatever THEN
destination.
1t was really the first time since
Boots return that she had ven
tured out into the village commun-
ity life. Several people nodded to
her cordially. After the service
Isabel whispered swiftly, you're
coming to my tea this afternoon,
without fail?"
81 don't know. I'm expecting a
caller from town"
Isabel .dimpled significantly.
Bring him along. I'm dying to
meet him." She squeezed hel
friends arm with the old warm
pressure. GIVE heard about your
young man." she said with arch
ness.
Boots said perhaps she would
come. She didn't know, really
what Edwards plans would be. He
was dining with the family and
would drive out later. Edward was
a solid, satisfying fact to have in
ones life. He was all reliability
and honest worth.
When he did arrive, smiling and
big and hearty, with his resound-
ing kiss and his own particular
scent of Russian leather and
heather-Soaked tweeds, Boots men
toned Isabel's party. Edward was
interested. Yes, he'd like to 90,
he said. Not for long, though, be-
cause he wanted to have his girl
to himself. He had a lot of things
TO talk to her about.
"These are too lovely" she told
him, touching the pearls with a
caressing finger. She had already
thanked him for them. Edward
laugh doomed out reaSsuringly.
She should have finer things than
those and very soon, too, he as
sured her.
"Seen Dennis?" he asked after
a moment. She steadied herself to
reply.
ayes. He dropped in last night. >
CLOVIS the old boy?"
ooh, all right. I guess" Why
must he remind her of Dennis at
this moment? But he was finished
with that topic, for the time, at
least. 1t was Of their plans he
wished to speak. Could she be
ready by January 18th? There was
a ship sailing then-iust the trip
he had planned for her.
Boots laced her slim fingers, I'M
locked them. When she looked up,
she was smiling. This was the best
way out of her difficulties, surely.
And The sooner it was done the
better!
"All right. The seventh"
"You darling" Edward was
rarely demonstrativc but today his
voice trembled. He took her chin
between thumb and forefnger,
fitting it gently.
"You won't be sorry" he told
her. "We'll go places and do
things. I'll be so proud Of you"
Her mother came in and there

LESS SPEED. MORE SAFETY

THE wisecrackers probably will get a good
Il deal of fun cut of the fact that the
Northern Federation of Civic Organizations,
California, has adopted a resolution urging leg
isation forbidding the production of autos
which can exceed a speed of forty-fve miles
an hour.
But when you stop to think about it, this
resolution isn't nearly as ridiculous as it might
seem on first glance.
Excessive speed is a contributing factor in
the majority of fatal auto accidents We pass
elaborate traffic laws and hire whole battalionS
of traffic policemen to see that speed is curbed
but we go right ahead making cars which can
travel at speeds that are genuinely safe no.
where but on regular speedways.
On the whole, we don't seem to have sense
enough to handle these high-speed cars prop
erly: it is not in the least surprising if some
people are beginning to suspect that more rad
ical restrictions are necessary.

INDIAN POW-WOWS
Ia scRIrps- HoMARn NEWsrArERl

A REMARKABLE series Of pow-wows has
n been called by Commissioner John Col
Her of the o. s. Indian Bureau in the north
west west and southwest. The first is now in
session at Rapid City S. D. The tribes gath
cred to hear Commissioner Collier and his staff
explain the details Of the Wheeler Howard
bill
Hearings on this important legislation al
ready have begun before the house committee.
The measure is a radical one. and upsets many
traditional attitudes and relationships between
the 100000 American Indians and their white
guardians. 1t strikes a blow at two evils that
have grown up in century of white admin
istrations. The first is the gradual pauperiza-
ton Of Indians through the allotment system;
the second is the suppression Of Indian tribal,
social and religious institutions under the
guise of characterization"
In former times the hearings on Capitol
Hill would have been sufficient. Il, in his
superior wisdom, the great white father con-
sidered a thing good for his red-skinned chill
dren of the plains it was theirs to accept as
all grateful children should. Mr.. Collier
thinks this is not enough. He wants the In
dams to understand the measure, to criticise it,
TO reject it if they find it not good Mr. Col
ler thinks it is a lifeline for their once-noble
civilization threatened with slow death by
whites. He believes he can convince the chief
tains of the Sioux the Blackfeet. the Navaios.
Pueb.Os. Cherokees. Missions and the rest.
The pow-wows on the plains of the west
viii allow the Indians for the first time really
to talk back to Uncle Sam. They are impor-
tant not only for Indian reforms but add
demonstrations Of free speech and self-de-
termination.

SUGAR IMPORTS

ONE of the administrations jobs, right now
~ is to find workable and equitable way
of dealing with the Cuban sugar producers.
But there is an angle to this problem which
deserves a little more attention than it has
been given.
While we are under a normal obligation to
see that the Cuban sugar industry is not
wrecked, we also have an obligation with
respect to the territory of Hawaii. If the Gu
ban sugar quota we're put at too high figure
a grave injustice could be done to the
Hawaiians.
Hawaii, it is well to remember, is Amer
lean soil, peopled by $4,000 energetic and in
dustrious folk who are looking forward to the
day when they can attain full statehood.
More than three-fourths of the value of
Hawaiian exports is drawn from the sugar
trade. Nearly third of Hawaii's inhabitants
are connected directly with that trade.
1t ought to be possible to arrange things
so that Justice can be done to both Hawaii and
Cuba In any case, the Hawaiian claims can
not be overlooked.

7 sCAPE from good jail is impossible if
H the Jail authorities are both diligent
and honest" J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the
department Of justice investigation bureau,
told The Times in Washington today.
Were the authorities at Crown Point dill
gent? Look at this excerpt from newspaper
reports Of John Dillinger's escape:
'DuIngers apparently harmless pastime Of
whiting was a subject Of much amusement
on the part of guards"
Who permitted this desperate to have knife
or razor while he was imprisoner for murder?
There is not a well-run penal institution in
the world in which a man like Diilinger would
have been allowed to possess even nail fila
much less jack knife. But read further:
Armed with a revolver taken from Bunk
"a deputy warden), he locked up all available
guards, and after disarming them, confiscated
two Thompson machine guns from the ward
ems office"
Why were these machine guns lying care
lessly about the jail office for Dllinger TO pick
up? In properly run jails, machine guns, gas
bombs and riot guns are kept carefully locked
in 4 steel cabinet and the keys hidden where
prisoners can not get access to them.
Armed with revolver taken from Bunk
that phrase alone condemns the authorities
at Crown Point. 1t is an elementary rule OF
prison procedure never to allow an armed Of
fetal to mingle directly with the prisoners and
when there is a Dillinger among the inmates
the reasons for such rule are doubly obvious.
But to go on with this revolving story:
Guard Ernest Baar was asleep on the third
floor of the Jail. . He failed to awaken"
Baar was one of the special guards"
charged with duty OF making sure Dillinger

SWAP THE SURPLUS

THE clear thinking of Henry Wallace, the
4 secretary of agriculture, on the funda-
mental problem of our place in the economic
world has helped to destroy another fallacy
fostered by the depression.
Increase consumption at home it has been
argued and all our troubles will be ended"
Feed all the hungry within our borders,
clothe all the naked, and prosperity will re-
turn again.
Yet. this is not so.
Increased consumption :" Wallace
writes in his recent pamphlet America Must
Choose" does not absorb every surplus. Boom
wages would not melt our total cotton or
wheat supply. Even at 1929 levels, We would
still be in a jam"
Increase consumption at home. Of course;
that means increased purchasing power. 1t
does not mean the end of all our troubles,
though for We can not eat all our wheat nor
wear all our cotton. So. what .
We can swap what We have left over for
something We want" Secretary Wallace an
swers Note he says swap" That means
a trade, taking something and Swing some
thing.

able study. Also there is the same refusal to
fall into easy concentrations.
1t is clear from this survey that foreign
policy does not develop in a vacuum 1t Is not
accidental or the passing whim OF any official
or administration There is a surprising de-
gree of continuity. The interpretations may
and do vary, but the motivating forces remain
fairly constant. Those forces are chiefly eco
nomic-the urge for markets and other outlets.
Although specifically there have been
two conflicting trends down through our his
tory-usually characterized as the Hamiltonian
expansionist policy versus the Jefersonian
isolationist polcy-Beard shows that the two
have been intertwined in one strand.
In our isolationist period we were expand
ing on this continent. And later it was the
Jeffersonian Woodrow Wilson who was so de-
termined to protect our national interest" in
the Caribbean and in Europe. Perhaps this dual
nature of the economic forces which deter
mine so-called national interest never has
been illustrated better than by the present
Roosevelt policy.

REHIND DIPLOMACY

IN the old days when nation laid down
Il diplomatic barrage or started a war. the
excuse usually was national honor" Once
your national honor was involved you Just had
to fight your neighbor, or at least thumb your
nose at him Like the mysterious code over
which individuals once fought duelS, there was
nothing very definite about this matter Of
national honor"-indeed it came to fit almost
any situation a cOcky nation wanted it TO fit.
But more recently that conveniently loose
old phrase has tended to drop out of the diplo-
matte lingo. Another has taken its place Now
nations are more apt to get in trouble over
what is called the national interest What is
that2
DR.. Charles A. Beard is trying to find out.
Together with G. H E. Smith he has written
book about it, The Idea OF National Inter
est. an Analytical Study Of American Foreign
Policy" Macmillan.
DR.. Boards conclusions are reserved for a
second volume. In this first volume he makes
an historical survey. AS one would expect, he

facts. for patient research which long since

ian, makes this book on foreign affairs not

ment decreased. sweatshops and child labor

mitigated. Optimism spread over the nation.
But. Macdonald replies, this situation is
both artificial and dangerous Why? Be
cause:
President Roosevelts aim, now that
the program has been unfolded, is seen to be
the reorganization Of American society on
collectvist lines, with the federal government
as the central source of authority and federal
power the directing and compelling force
The fruits Of the program have been some
artificial stimulation of business and industry.
some artificial relief IOr the farmers. and some
artificial mitigation of unemployment
but in their pursuit the administration has
become a dictatorship. the public debt has
been swollen to unprecedented peacn-time
proportions the gold standard has been aban-
doned, and the dollar has been left to find its
level in the shifting sands of commodity
prices. There is no dictionary that defines
recovery in such terms"
A more sympathetic attitude toward the
administrations plan is expressed IN Per
manent Prosperity and How to Get It," by
John and Nathaniel Gold CHarpers).

we have attempted here to formulate
plan wherein full allowance is made fO- the
exercise of individual initiative which is given

the authors explain. AT the same time We
propose planned governmental action in areas
where it has been operating. in a rlanless
fashion without definite objective. through
