twice many pictures.

that Marie Louise was informed
of the tragic battle in which her
husband and her father we're aG

D EVERSES now took the place
An Of victories and followed up
on each other apace. Oudinot,
who was marching on Berlin, was
stopped dead, on the 23rd, at
Buren,, by Bernadotte and
compelled to fall back. Gen. Gil
rard, who had left Magdeburg to
reinforce him, had great difficulty
in returning to that fortress. On
the 26th, Macdonald had a disas-
trOus encounter with Butcher, on
the KatSmach. On the 30th, Van
dammes Army Corps, hemmed in
at Kuhn by Barclay de folly,
Kleist and Schwarzenberg, lost
more than half its force: "Corti-
neau, his second command,
managed to escape with the cav

The allied forces were still at
the gates of Dresden. On Sept.

cupied GroSs-Sedlitz and Donna;

Dresden, Sept. Is (1813).
Mon annie, you will not have
heard from me these last few days
because enemy irregulars and de-
serters have posted themselves in
the rear of the army. They will
shortly be driven off. My health
is good and my affairs are in

'The turncoats" Yes, indeed,
now that the glamor of victory
had received a blow, now that
there was no longer any glory in
claiming to belong to the Grand
Army" OBJECTIONS were multiply
ing.
Desertion played havoc among
the Saxon soldiers, at the insti-
cation of Bernadotte, under whom
they had fought at Wagram, and
who secretly sent them proclama-
tious in which he, Frenchman,
urged them to desert the cause of
France. A Saxon battalion de-
serted to him boldly on Sept. 81.
The Westphalians were shaken.
The Poles alone were impregAably
devoted to Napoleon. But it was
important to fill up the voids.

comeback at Huey Long has part
ly restored his badly plucked
plumage. Jim has kept off the
political firing line as far as pos
sible and is trying to rebuild the

during his peregrinations about

CLAUDE AUGUSTUS SWAN
~ SON is no more Secretary OF
the Navy than Dern is Secretary
of War. Not only is he in the
hands of his admirals, but also he
is in the hands of the President.
Roosevelt, for eight years assist
ant secretary of the Navy, con not
resist poking his fingers continu-
ally into his old department.
Swanson is heart and soul big
Navy man.
HAROLD E. ICKES, Secretary
of the Interior. continues to be
the hardest working and most I'M
compromising member of the
Cabinet. Despite the abuse heaped
upon his head in recent months,
he maintains a gorgeous sense OF
humor and just as much eager
ness for a scrap. His tracks have
been less deviating toward New
Deal goals than that Of any other
Cabinet officer.
DANIEL CALHOUN ROPER is
Secretary of Commerce in name,
and, without John Dickinson, as
sistant secretary, his department
would be completely stymied. An
ardent prohibitionist. Roper now
fumbles at a cocktail, although no
one can be quite sure whether any
of it passes down his gullet.
TTENRY WALLACE, one of the
l. l. most idealistic New Dealers,
is not a happy man. He has
parked some of his ideals on the
shelf and has decided to go along
on a course Of political expedi-
ency. For all practical purposes,
Chester Davis, administrator of
the AAA, is now Secretary Of
Agriculture. Wallace is loved for
his charm, his naivete, his simple
ness of manner. his idealism, but
he has lost some of the respect
he once commanded.

OF Labor, IS one Of the hardest
