TAX RISE ASKED
FOR ECONOMY

How o 1O-cent tax rise is to
save Colmar Manor residents
money is the peculiar anomaly
now facing them.
The town fathers, in an elec-
tion year, too, resolutely added
10 cents today to the 15-cent tax
rate for each $100 Of assessed
valuation.
The proceeds, estimated at
$1,175, are to pay for refuse,
ashes and trash collections, re-
placing the private service for
which residents have been paying
as high as SO year.
The average cost Of the new
service is estimated at between
$3.50 and So, in information given
council members.
The town budget otherwise In
cludeS the same expenditures as
for last year, with the largest
item listed as street lighting,
which totals SITS.

NJ CARL WARNS
CONTRACTORS

President Roosevelt's executive
order of March II. requiring NRA
compliance on the part of con-
tractors with the Government, will
be enforced, according to a ruling
by Comptroller General J. r. Nc
Carl, who says that if the NRA
Administrator decides that the
code or PRA has been violated,
the contract shall be Cancelled.
The contracting officer is ex-
pected to accept the lowest respon-
sible bid if it is accompanied by a
certificate of code compliance,
and it is not his job to settle dis
putes later as to whether the code
has been observed.
ANY apparent violation of NRA
principles, it is held, should be
submitted to the Administrator.

his duties in this time of national
emergency, but ! feel that they
would welcome any reasonable
measure Of relief from detail that
Is compatible with their desire to
be Of service and their sense OF re-
sponsibility.
Likes City, But Kansas First
I have lived in Washington for
many years. I like the city, and
have many friends here. But
primarily I am q Kansan, and ]
an here as the representative OF
my fellow Kansans. First OF all,
It Is my duty to serve them. and
the great economic catastrophe
that has shaken agriculture
throughout the nation makes it
imperative that should devote
every possible effort in their be-
half.
Conditions are unquestionably
improving, but it is still necessary
that we should give all the
thought possible toward fastening
the progress of recovery and to
alleviating the stress that still
presses so harshly against many
Of our people.
AS a member Of the Republican
party, I feel that it is ever
more incumbent upon me than
upon my Democratic colleagues
to give thorough study to the
measures included in the recov-
cry program. There is no dis
position on the part of any Re
publican in Congress, I am sure,
to seek any partisan advantage
at the expense Of the recovery
program. In this time of crisis
we are Americans first and party
members last.
Conclusions Of Experience
For these reasons, great as is
my interest in the District and
its affairS-and that interest is
evidenced by my membership and
chairmanship Of the Senate Dis
trlct Committee over a long period
it would be helpful to me if 7
could be relieved Of as much
routine and detail in connection
with District matters as possible.
I have come to certain con.
clusionS along that line, as a re-
suit Of my experience in the COM
mittee and in the Senate, and the
first and most important of these
is that the District can, and
should. be permitted to do q
number of things for itself that
under the present law it Is un-
able to do.

Dr.. Hart Denies
Washington a
Ladies Man.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., April
EHistorians who picture
George Washington as q great
ladies man" have been chal-
lenged by DR.. Albert Bushnell
Hart, professor Of government
emeritus Of Harvard University.
DR.. Hart, past president Of
the American Historical Associa-
ton, told the New Jersey His
torical Congress that Washing
toms diary reveals only a "ten-
der solicitude for his wife and
an interest in the wives and
daughters of his friends"
A letter that Washington
wrote Sally Fairfax was cited
by DR.. Hart as one Of the docu.
mentS which has caused q mis-
conception Of WaShington'S at
titude toward women. The let
ter, written after his return
from the wilderness, implies that
he had been a fool to go away
when he could have married
her."

Those two days were troubled ones for Pat. Days when loneliness ate into his heart. When, at times. he forgot his bitterness. On the morning of the seventeenth Of March, he was still undecided. He wanted to go to Eileen. But some thing kept holding him back THOSE TWO DAYS
 WE'RE TROUBLED ONES
 The. pot of shamrocks that had come that morning mocked him. He stood 1t as long as he could. He stood it until seven o'clock that night. Then he went to the drawer where he had put Eileen's letter and opened 1t. She had sent her address, and q half-ashamed little plea for forgiveness.
 Pat dressed and shaved very carefully. He hoped that Eileen wasn't working. Perhaps they would have their celebration yet, When he went out, he was carry ing the shamrocks. And he was feeling happier than he had in days.
 The rooming house where Eileen
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-03-17

| hadn't occurred to him that this quarrel was more serious than any of their others.
 That was early in March, when the air was still cold with Winter sharpness. When two weeks had passed, the first signs of Spring were touching the city. But there was, no softening in Pats heart. He spoke to no one. His face was dour. All during that first week, he waited, without quite realizing
 what it was he was waiting for.
 A letter came a few days after Eileen had left, but Pat thrust Il
 into a drawer without opening it. As though to read it would be a gesture of weakness.
 The evenings were lonely. He
 missed the nightly game Of crib bage, although he would have sur rendered both arms before he would admit it. He missed Eileen's bright voice singing the old songs he loved. But when he thought of her, which was constantly, 1t was to visualize her dancing in the arms of strange man. He was coming home one windy night with his face deep in his coat collar. He was passing the | florist shop on the corner when Steve Glynn, it's proprietor tapped on the window. Pat went ir
 morosely.
 q suppose" said Steve, "that | you'll be wanting some shamrock
 this year, same as ever, for that
 colleen of yours."
 "Shamrocks| Pat repeated. "And you're not forgettin' that | Saturdays the feast of the good
 St Patrick, are you? It's old you
 must be getting, Pat Carney, to l be forgettin' that!
 q ain't forgettin'," Pat grOwled
 You can be savin' the shamrocks
 for me, Steve, like always" There was sharp pain in his heart when he went out. The feast of the good St Patrick was an occasion to celebrate doubly, for i it was Pats own birthday, and | Eileens too. Always 1t had been a grand occasion with Eileen cook | ing the dishes he liked best. Then they had gone to the theater or to an Irish concert which Pat liked
 better. The little pot of shamrocks l had been one of his gifts to his l daughter.
 This year there would be only | the oppressive silence of the fiat | without Eilen's presence. For now
 he knew that Eileen wasn't coming
 home. And there were but two
 days more before St Patrick'i ! Day.

 The hall was on the second floor of an old building. It was decorated with Irish and American flags. But Pat did not notice. 4 man at the door said, "Ticket, pleaseg Pat threw down a bill. Already he was searching in the crowd for Eileen.
 Some one spoke to him. It was Tim O'Leary who used to live in the old neighborhood. He and his wife had been the Carncy's friends during those first bewildering days in the new country. Tim's daughter was with him, and a tall young man.
 well, Pat" Tim's voice was hearty. "The missus I'll be glad to see you, and the kids are here, too.
 Pat muttered. "Later!" The music had stopped and there were little knots of people around the dance floor. A woman waved to him. She was Margaret Kelly. She had been Ellen's chum in their girlhood days. Pat stopped. waver- ing uncertainty.
 These people--Tim and his wife and Margaret-they were good, re- spectable people. And there was tvh ha1H hnnr, Dnf'a boss once. And a man whom he saw every Sunday at church. Pat was hot with confusion. Then he saw Eileen. She was standing with a group of people, laughing until she turned and saw him. She grew pale. and she walked slowly toward him. For an instant they faced each other. two pairs of stormy blu e eyes clashing. two firm chins set stub bornly.
 At that moment the music started up. Pat recognized the old waltz they were playing. It was, My Wild Irish Rose" Eileen had often sung 1t, just as Ellen had sung 1t years ago,
 A tremulous smile wavered on Eileen's lips. She raised her arms, will you dance with me. Pat?" Pats arms went out. He found himself upon the dance floor, and he was filled with sudden panic. Then with the rhythm of the waltz. old forgotten steps came easily. His back grew straighter. His eyes frightened
 "They have these dances every Saturday night, Eileen said against his shoulder. They have Irish jigs, too, and reels, Pa" Pat did not speak for moment. Breaking a habit of long years standing was hard. But at last he said it. Then you got date for next Saturday night, my girl" He smiled now benignantly upon the crowd that thronged about him. The biting loneliness was gone. Here was Eileen in his arms, here | were his friends. Here was the
 bright laughter of happy hearts, the joy of innocent fun, all in the honor of his good Saint Patrick.

Eileen said, "lf you'd only be reasonable, Pa, you might under | stand. l only want you to move so's can get back and forth to work easier. told you that I'll 1 be cashiering in the restaurant till late at night, and you know your self Pa, that this is an awful neighborhood for a girl to be com ing home to night
 "So that's it. Here, where your mother lived all her married life, and her an angel straight from Heaven If ever there was one. It's not good enough for you"
 Ut isn't" Eileen spoke crispIy. And ] guess you wouldn't care much if did go somewhere else to live. Well. that's what I'm go- ing to do."
 There was deep hurt in Pats eyes. For the smallest fraction of second, his face softened. Then the stubborn chin grew more sub born than ever.
 That's what you want. Is it?" he growled. ""TO go away where your father can't sec what you're doing. Yell be chasin' to dances all the :ime then, I suppose. to your hearts content. Well. the minute you go out of this house. there's no coming back!"
 Eileen sighed wearily. She was beginning to realize the futility of Arguments They always reverted t0 that same old unsettled score. Her father always had been one point---dances They were, he ,ut. nF ha no decent and self-respecting girl And Eileen, who had loved to dance as long as she could remcm- Der, had always given in to him.
 She wouldn't give In this time, though. Her face beAame more set. What she had told him was true. Her work would keep her out late at night. And her father couldn't realize that the neighbor- hood had changed since the day he brought his bride to America from the Emerald Isle across the sea.
 Eileen felt far from happy, how ever, when she went to pack her things The bright flame of anger had. died. Only that unbending streak of stubborness that she had inherited from Pat himself re- mained.
 AND HE WAS
 EQUALLY UNHAPPY
 And he was equally unhappy. His Eileen, until these last few swift years his baby - she cared more for her own comfort, her silly pleasures than for. him. His heart was sick and bewildered. He couldn't understand this Eileen of his. She was so unlike her mother. his own gentle Ellen.
 Now Eileen came out of the bedroom. She was carrying q heavy suitcase, and her eyes were sus- piciously red. She glanced toward him, but his eyes were steadfastly on the newspaper that he held high in front of him.
 She said uncertainty, If there's anything Look, I'll send you my address just as soon as I can" Pat did not answer. There was a
