BY this time it was nearly mid-af-
ternoon.
They cruised slowly down as close
in-shore as they dared to go.
And at about this time Jessica start
ed for Jim's camp. She didn't know
about his plans to go to the mainland
this day, and as he had promised her
the sport Of playing big tarpon, she
decided that this was good time for
it.
Sykes and his men put into a small
cove and went ashore. Stealthily they
began to sneak down to the southern
beach, where they believed the pro-
hibition agents were located.
"Think they're clever" Sykes whis-
pered as they peered over a ridge at
the camp. "This bird is pretendin'
to be just campin' out. AS if he could
work that bluff on me. We want to
sneak up and grab 'em. Give 'em such
a beatin' they won't forget it-don't
kill 'em. Beat up the black boy too.
He amt got no right to be workin'
fer them raiders"
Sykes men nodded. This would be
fun for them.
They crept up nearer, getting all
ready to spring.
Jim was at his tent door, brushing
his coat. Nose was putting canvas
over the cooking dishes and camp

stove.
And at this moment Jessica came
into view. She wanted to surprise and
scare Jim.
She saw the men spring up, just
then, and she tried to scream, but she
was too frightened-it made her
speeches..
The two men jumped on Nose and
Jim, hearing the fracas, turned just
as Sykes leaped on him.
They went down together.
Jessica stood there trembling. She
couldn't understand it.
To her great relief Jim managed
to struggle up. Sykes also leaped up
and made for him with club he had
grabbed. Jim lodged the blow and
when he came up he brought an up
per cut along with him that sent Sykes
spinning.
Jim leaped into his tent and appear
ed with a gun just as Sykes was
starting for him again.
Sykes stopped at sight of the gun.
A shout from Jim and the two men
fighting poor Nose, caught sight of
the gun and of Sykes standing there
with his arms in the air.
"Lift 'em," Jim growled. "Mose,
get the axe. If one of those birds
makes move, split him."
"AhIl split him anyways; ah'll split
bofe of 'em!"
"Do as I say Mose!"

Jesisca, crouching at the edge of
the thicket, was grinning happily now.
The fight that Jim put up delighted
her.
"What's the idea?" Jim asked.
"What's the idea of you houndin'
me and my men," Sykes answered.
"Never saw you before. What's

"No prohibition agents is agoin'
to prevent me from earnin' my livin'

"You got me wrong. You can run
in all the stuff you want, only keep
off my island" Jim warned.
"That's hot one-your island!"
Sykes laughed.

Well, Pm J. R. Harper and this is my

"You J. R. Harper?"

Sykes began to laugh.
"Hell, stay here longs you like,
Harper. I won't bother nobody so
longs they don't bother me-"
Jessica heard every word, first with
establishment and then with chagrin
and rage. She turned and ran back
through the thicket.

All Tale Not in Powder;
Other Minerals Are Used

Tale Is mineral which finds
many uses on acc ant Of Its ex-
treme softness and unctiousness. It
Is so soft that it Is readily scratched
by the finger nail and feels as slip
perry as If 1t had been creased.
It's familiar use as talcum toilet
powder depends on these properties
as well as the absence Of grit and
the fact that it does not cake or
become plastic when wet.
Talcum powder is the pure min
eral ground to powder and per-
fumed. Sometimes a little borax
is added as a mild disinfectant.
Other somewhat harder and less
unctuous minerals such as SER
pentine and gypsum are sometimes
substituted for the tale, and chem
ical products are sometimes substi-
tuted for special purposes. In Co
lonial times our grandmothers used
fuller's earth as baby powder.
Talcum powders account for but
a small part Of the tale used, &C
cording to Field Museum News, an
organ Of the Field Museum of Nat
ural History, Chicago. For every
pound Of tale ground for talcum
powder forty pounds are used in
other ways.

Prime Minister Not Elected

The prime minister, or premier,
Of England, is not elected. He is
named by the crown. The nomina-
ton is somewhat restricted, how
ever, since a prime minister could
not carry on the business of gov
eminent without the confidence Of
the house Of commons, and such
a vote Of confidence is essential tot
retention of Office. That is, when
one party loses power the prime
minister resigns, and with his res
ignation his cabinet is dissolved.
There usually is recognized lead
er Of the opposition party, to whom
, the formation Of a new cabinet
can be intrusted.

Proves Our Security

The great ocean flight of those four
dozen navy fighting planes is magnifi-
cent spectacle and a great demonstration
Of the long-range striking power of the
modern air force; yet it would be easy to
20 entirely too far in drawing lessons
from the performance. As proof that
naval warfare has been transformed by
addition of new weapon of vast poten-
tialities, the flight is without parallel. But
it does not yet prove the truth of all those
excited assertions that our secure lsola-
ton is ended and that we are within easy
reach of the aerial fleets of foreign
powers.
A flight of this kind in mid-ocean is
great achievement, to be sure. But great
battle fleet was on duty along the route.
There were no anti-aircraft defenses to
leap over, no squadrons of hostile planes
to brush aside, no obligation on the four
dozen pilots to return to their starting
point without a stop.
In other words, this flight does not
prove that European or Asiatic power
would find it simple to send an air fleet
over to bomb our cities. That may be pos
sible some day, but it certainly is not the
case today. 1t is rather important to
keep that fact in mind. We have pre-
paredness group in this country which is
Just about as militaristic as any similar
group overseas; and this group can be
expected to use this navy flight as the
basis for demand that we increase our
aerial ornaments until they are the
equal of any other such ornaments on
earth - on the ground that we shall not
be secure" until we do so
A recent survey published in the Air
craft Yearbook for 1885, shows that we
rank fifth in battle planes. France, Rus
STA, Great Britain, and Italy are ahead of
u.s. We have 1900 fighting planes, of
which about 1000 are wholly up-to-date;
and the Yearbook remarks that this is less
than half the strength required to put us
ION anything like an equal footing with
other powers.
But the point to remember in all this is
that we don't need to be on an equal foot
ing with these other powers. The Atlantic
and Pacific oceans have not yet shrunk to
the dimensions of the Great Lakes. Our
air fleet may be outclassed by four others,
but It would most certainly be able to
overwhelm any hostile air fleet that could
actually reach our shores.
That is all an advocate of national Sc
curity can ask. We don't contemplate ag-
gressive action overseas We can be sat
isfied with security at home And this
Pacific flight falls far short of proving
a that the airplane has been developed to
the point where it destroys that security.

Flip Flop Goes The Dipper

After reading the Waterbury Republic
cans right-about face editorial last SUM
day in regards the lower court judgeshlps,
especially here in Waterbury, we are
moved to give utterance to more than the
customary three huzzahs at the intlmatlon
lin yesterdays reports from Hartford that
in all probability Judge Edward C. Mas
colo would be retained.
What tickled us most was the last para
graph of the good old die-hard RepuDh-
cans editorial to the effect, mo court ap-
pointment should be put through for this
city without conference with the town
chairman and his committee. Quite
big order we would say, somewhat similar
to that other famous dictum to the mayor
stating that before he named republican
registrar. he likewise would have to con-
suit certain so-called republican leaders.
Well, in the last instance the mayor
failed to obey the command and in the
case of the city court judgeships it looks
as if the legislators in Hartford had fol
lowed suit. For that reason, as we said
above, we are doubly pleased to see, il
there must be deal, that Waterbury has
not been overlooked.
Apparently the proposed sell-out in
our courts, as the Waterbury Democrat
intimated some months ago when the talk
of three prosecutors was rife would not
have such chilling" effect upon the Wa
terbury Republicans confidence had the
selected of the prosecutors and judges,
for that matter, been more to its liking.
The Waterbury Republicans squads
right attitude in the present matter is al
together too apparent It's cordial invita-
tion to meet the town committee chairman
with all due respect to the aspirations OF
that worthy gentleman strikes yet closer
home. Seine one evidently had an ak to
grind, but found the grinding too tough.
Oh, hum!

establishment and maintenance represent
sone of the wisest steps the nation has ever
taken. In it are preserved for the enjoy
ment of all of us plots Of ground Of great
scenic beauty and strong sentimental
charm, where we can 60 and get ourselves
lifted out of the ordinary press Of every
day worries and difficulties.
The chain of parks constitutes one Of
our most precious possessions. It goes
without saying that judicious extension
of the chain from time to time is well
worth the price; and whenever there is q
region like Isle Royale, untouched and
lovely and filled with the mystery and ro-
nance of ancient tradition, all Of us are
served when it is added to the chain.
There is another point to consider, also.
For obvious reasons, most of the great
national parks are in the west. The bulk
of the population lies in the east. The
Lake Superior region may not be exactly
next door to New England and New York,
but it is lot nearer than the Yellowstone.
The whole park chain should be ex-
panded. It is hard to think Of better
place for the expansion to begin than in
this remote and glamorous island in the
worlds greatest lake.

Golden Machinery

Chemical engineers meeting at Whining
ton, Del, seriously discussed the question
of using gold and other precious metals to
make machinery and utensils of various
kinds for use in industry and the arts.
Scientifically, if the cost is disregarded,
there are good arguments for it. Corro-
sion, caused by chemical fumes in many
industrial processes, and great destroyer
of base metals such as iron and copper,
has scarcely any effect on gold and plati-
mum, and not much on silver.
Gold and silver have the disadvantage
of greater softness than iron, but can be
hardened with platinum, nickel and other
alloys. They would be especially useful in
the manufacture of chemicals and Of
foodstuffs and other things which must
be protected from the chemical reactions
often caused by inferior metals. Some
chemical equipment already contains gold
and silver. Silver is especially valuable as
lining for vessels used in food manufac-
ture, because it is not corroded by food
acids.
The rapid extension of the precious
metals for industrial and domestic pur-
poses doesn't seem very likely, when they
are so expensive, and when governments
are boarding the gold and silver. But
there's no telling. If the nations should
ever 60 off the gold basis, adopting COM
modify unit of value or some other nom
metallic unit, golden machinery might be
cheap.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-05-29
Way To Settlement

Senator Willard E. Tydings has pro-
posed an international conference at
Washington to deal with all the postwar
international problems, ranging from the
war debts down to armament reduction
and currency sterilization.
While the present state of public opin-
ion in the nations of the world-in including
our own-may make such proposal pre-
mature, it at least indicates the real ma
ture of the problem that confronts us.
Until there is some sensible settlement
of these pressing issues, there can be no
real return to world prosperity. There
may be whole host of difficulties in the
way of such settlement; there are enough
headaches in the currency question alone,
for instance, to keep statesmen busy for
months.
But sooner or later these things must
be settled, and settled intelligently. It is
encouraging, at least, to see dawning
realization of the fact in the United
States Senate.
