Ethelyn hung up.
A superstitiouS fear that If
she said anything about it, her
luck would change, kept Mary
from taking Margot into her
confidence, as she dressed that
evening.
The more she thought about
It, the more vitally necessary
that job seemed. She just had
to get away. Just worrying
about Holden and his long face
had been enough, but now that
she'd made such a fool of her
self about Bennett, it was too
much. She couldn't stand it.

She decided to wear the tai
lored suit, rather than the more
flattering gray coat and hat.
She looked more business-like in
the suit, and o woman would
rather have q secretary look
competent than pretty.
But she took great pains with
her makeup. Not too much lip
stick but enough to look smart.
Not too !, much powder, but
enough to stick on for the next
hour or two, so that she
wouldn't have to do anything
more to it. It wouldn't be very
wise to be caught adding powder
or lipstick.

was ready. Smart, but not too

off her nose, leaving it shiny.

There wasn't a doubt in her

Feeling like an insignificant
child, Mary trailed after.
Two women, important In
their gardenias and fur, came
forward. One of them held out
her hand.
"Dr. Crawford, this is a very
great pleasure! I'm Mrs"
The rest was lost in a rush Of
eager words that weren't meant
for Mary. But DR.. Crawford
hadn't forgotten her. She

STUART ISSUES
JOB ULTIMATUM

PHOENIX, April 19-"Unless Re-
publicans now holding office in Ari-
zona under the national admins
tration are removed from office and
replaced with Democrats, I am 60
ing to resign as your state chair
man., was the ultimatum laid down
by w. P. Stuart, Prescott, state
chairman of the Democratic party.
His declaration was made at the
annual all-state Democratic BAN
quet in celebration of the 192nd
birth anniversary of Thomas JEFF
ferson, the patron saint Of Demo-
c.acy in the United States. The din
ner was attended by large number
of members of the Democratic par
ty. Governor and Mrs. Moeur were
honored guests, John L. Sullivan,
attorney general, delivered the JEFF
fersonian memorial address.
Mr.. Stuart's declaration followed
his startling announcement that
Andrew Jackson and not Jefferson
founded the Democratic party. HE
was the first to label it the Demo
cratic party, he said, "and the first
to declare that great Democratic
principle, to the victor belong the

ture shows, pool games, races, and
other forms of amusement and at
fractions as well as your bill at dude
ranches, hotels, parking lots and
garages, or any business charging
storage or rental fees.
AS o matter of fact you are 60
ing to have to pay a tax on your
foods and soft drinks. This will be
taxable at the rate Of l per cent
on the gross income for food served
in restaurants, on dining cars or
other eating emporiumS.
Should the restaurant, soda foun-
tain, Or other places where food is
served also engage in the business
of selling tobacco or candy or most
any other thing to eat, then the
tax will be jumped to 2 per cent Of
the gross receipts, according to the
new lew.
When you step to a soda foun-
tain for meal, it will mean the
soda man can charge 2 per cent
tax, unless he keeps separate ac-
counts Of his sales on the fountain
from the rest of the store, should
he be in a drug store where other
sales are made. Then the tax will
be per cent, with the remainder of
the goods being sold in that store
being taxed at per cent.
Credit bureau and collection
agencies are not exempt from the
new law. They will be taxed per
cent on the gross business done
each month.
The law carries stringent penal
ties for failure to pay this tax to
the state tax commission when it
is due. Should you fail to remit in
time, the merchant subjects him.
self to 20 per cent penalty on his
gross sales.
Still another feature Of the new
law is the fact that merchants must
pay $40 fine should they fail to
renew their license before May 10,
as there will be Today period of
grace allowed on the matter of a
license.
A warning also was sounded by A.
L. Frees, director Of the sales tax
division Of the tax commission that
a tax must be paid on business done
in May, under the old law, just the
same as before, even though the
new law becomes effective May 1.
The entire structure of the new
law has not been presented to the
tax commission as yet, but it is ex-
pected that copies of the law with
explanations will be available at the
state tax commission this month.

PHOENIX GETS
STATE OFFICES
OF CCC CAMPS
BY JULIAN A. BEAMAN

(United Press Staff Correspondent
PHOENIX, Ariz., April 10. (UP)-
A reorganization of CCC admlnis-
tration policies of the government
has placed Arizona on the map as
one of the headquarter organiza-
tionS for direction Of activities Of
the 80 camps now in the state en-
ploying more than 5000 men.
The new general headquarters will
be established in Phoenix where a
force of about 10 regular and army
and reserve officers and from 80 to
20 clerks will be employed.
Moving Of the headquarters here
will mean the changing of opera
tions for all CCC camps in the Ari-
zona district from Ell Paso, Tex,
where disbursements and operations
have been handled in the past.
The district office here will have
charge of all purchases of equip
ment, supplies and materials for the
camps in this state.
This will mean an approximate
expenditure Of 100000 each month,
the bulk of the supplies and equip
ment to come from Arizona con-
Germs where possible.
Aside from the general office, that
probably will occupy an entire Of
flee building floor, there will be a
storage depot and warehouse es-
tablisl1ed here where state supplies
will be disbursed.
Plans for the new headquarters
office In Phoenix were first out
lined at a luncheon attended by
civic and business leaders here and
members of the Chamber Of Com
merce. At this meeting Col Gordon
outlined plans of the extensive ex-
pansion of the camps under direct
ton of Washington officials, who
have been assured of continuation
of the work through the $4,000 000,-
900 work relief measure.
