ITEM copies Of the last book written by Law
Il renee Of Arabia, The Mint" will soon be
available-at $500 900 a copy, the United Press
has learned.
That price-one of the highest ever placed on
a ook-wa fixed by the publishers to protect the
copyright and prohibit sale until, one official is
quoted as saying, the living persons mentioned
in the script are dead"
Lawrence, who lost his life in a motorcycle
accident last May, was understood to have
poured into his book all the bitterness he felt
toward British public officials, who he felt had
double-crossed him in the pledges he had made
to Arabia.
Policies Of the British government are Bit
terly criticised in the manuscript, 1t Is said. Inc
publishers, Doubleday-Doran. also are to publish
soon his 1000, 0O0-word Seven Pillars of Wis
dom" Ten copies Of Seven Pillars of wisdom
were published" for sale at $4,000 a copy-and
the 10 were sold! Lawrence, it is understood,
wanted widespread dissemination withheld I'M
til his death, according to the United Press.
A STUDY of murder-not a mystery or q
N thriller-that is an intense and sympathetic
examination of the things than can drive a hu-
man being to homicide is contained in we the
Accused" by Ernest Raymond (Stokes; $3.50.
1t is the story Of a little English school
teacher, in his ffties, a really pathetic figure
who has a completely uncomfortable wife. The
school teacher falls IN love with an equally
pathetic figure, who requites his love and they
find happiness, for the first time in either Of
their lives.
The author s|killfully shows the little teacher
driven to the point of placing arsenic in his
wife's soup and the flight Of the lovers. The
pair is caught. of course, and the killer goes to
the gallowS after a sensational trial.
I'VE the Accused" is a powerful story because
the author has the knack Of putting his reader
into the soul Of his chief character and you find
yourself understanding every reaction of the
pathetic little teacher, who found both happiness
and death.
1t is a powerful novel and it stamps Mr.. Ray
mond as an extremely capable author.
A N Indiana lawyer, Clarence E. Benadum, has
N written a book concerning Indiana politics.
1t is "Blackshirt" (Dorrance & Co.; Philadel-
phia: So and is centered in a city which could be
either Lafayette or Bloomington.
Mr.. Benadum has welded into his book his
thoughts on the American political scene and his
ideas on the A program are worked in I'M
obtrusively as the thoughts of his characters.
"Blackshirt" is not literature, nor a powerful
novel" it has no plot to speak of, but it may in
terest Indiana readers if only because of its
locale.

THE STATE FAIR

A LTHOUGH battling unpleasant weather,
the Indiana State Fair this year seems
well on its way to another attendance record
That Indiana supports its fair so well, is
cause for praise. Despite heavy rains Sunday
and yesterday. the Playground was packed n
automobiles were parked not only on the prop
erty. but for scores Of blocks surrounding the
exposition site.
One Of the reasons that the fair is so well
followed this year IS because it is probably the
best fair Indiana has ever seen. Each year
state and fair officials have improved the an
nuai exhibition. It's Improvement is worthy of
the support it is given.

RECORD ON TAX-EXEMPTS

lust to keep the record straight, let us re-
- call:
That on June 10. President Roosevelt sent
TO Congress a tax message which. among other
things, recommended a constitutional amend
ment prohibiting the future issue of tax-ex-
empt securities;
That in the following two months up to ad-
%journment. neither House of Congress both
cred to grant a committee hearing to reso-
buttons submitting such an amendment;
That Senator Borah. acting on the belief
that the way to end tax-exempts was to end
them. inserted an amendment to the tax
bill, cancelling the tax-exemption feature
Of future issues of federal securities;
That the Administrative uncontrolled con-
ferees, who perfected the tax bill. erased the
Borah amendment without a bubble;
That the Administration goes merrily
ahead, piling up more tax-exempts at the rate
of about 100000 600 a day.

CRITICISES PRESIDENT ON
NEUTRALITY STAND
By Times Reader

By Times Reader
President Roosevelt gravely dis
appointed his people in his attitude
toward neutrality legislation. Presi-
dent Roosevelt. an advocate of the
World Court and other methods of
involving the United States in
world conflicts, wants the power of
neutrality to remain with him.
1t is too easy to turn back the
pages Of history and see that Wood
row Wilson dragged the United
States into senseless war, because
ne was easy prey to the wal lords
who hid under the sheepskin of
internationalism.
No responsibility so tremendous
must remain within the power Of
one person. President Roosevelt
might be moved to war by Eng
lish Establishments, but it would be
a far more difficult task to con-
vince the entire Congress Of the
United States to withdraw its neu-
trail acts.
Social security, Of course, is Of

Pays Tribute to Mr.. DeZMSe

thirds of the states have such
laws and pensioning of the aged
in a part of the recently enacted
Federal social security program.
He realized that pensions for
the aged under present laws do
not afford adequate relief and al
most to the day OF his death he
was striving for more liberal laws.
Those who came in contact with
Mr.. Deluse during the long i'll
ness which finally claimed his life
will remember always the high
courage and cheerful spirit with
which he carried his burden. His
physicians and nurses, fearful of
the worst. endeavOred to limit his
visitors, but he wished to see
every one who called, and greeted
his visitors Smilingly.
His sickroom, like his home, was
a place where he could meet his
friends and discuss with them
those things near his heart-the
welfare of old men and women
ana the happiness or family life
attainable through social secur-
ity.
His devotion to his family-his
wife, son and daughter, mother and
brother-was evident to even his
casual acquaintance. Although
much of his time and energy were
claimed by his various activities,
his home was the center of his
world.
His brothers in the Fraternal
Order of Eagles have lost a real
friend and able leader. The city
has lost a first citizen in every
sense of that term. To his fam
lily, there remains the consolation
Of beautiful memories.

MYSTERY

ID USSIAN explorers away up in the Arctic
IN Ocean claim that they have discovered a
mysterious island which causes all approach
ing ships TO change their course. Some weird
kind of power or influence emanateS from the
island. they report. so that a ship which heads
directly at it will presently find itself. for 10
apparent reason, travelling in the opposite
direction.
Before some other expedition gets up there
and explodes this eerie theory. it ought to be
pointed out that this IS the sort Of thing mod
ern exploration needs TO make it exciting.
There never was a time in world history
when explorers went out so deliberately
equipped, both for discovery and for pub
licizing their discoveries; and there also never
was a time when there was so little left for
them to discover.
Exploration has begun to take on the as
poets Of a routine job. and the glamour has
just about gone out OF it.
But Islands that turn ships of their route
and remain UNEMPLOYED because some mystic
rious, invisible force keeps people from get
ting CT them-that. now. is something like il.

The Message Center
BY His Friend

by MS FElenO
The death of Otto P. Deluse re-
moved from this community a
type CT leadership that is all too
rare.
His character was a splendid
blending of kindness, vision and
courage.
Although he had received many
Well-earned honors, he was not
content to rest upon his laurelS.
He never was too busy to talk with
any man or women, whether Of
high or humble station in life.
He had a warm, sympathetic
understanding of human problems.
His devotion to the cause of old
age pensions and other movements
in the field of social security made
that understanding more than an
abstract thing.
Back in 1921, when the Fraternal
Order Of Eagles he served so ably
and loyalty committed itself to a
campaign for the enactment of
pension laws, he Immediately be-
came an ardent champion of that
form of aid.
During the y years in which
he toiled as chairman of the In
diana pension commission of the
Eagles for enactment of a pen
sion law in this state, he suffered
many bitter disappointments. But
always when a bill was lost, he de-
clared the fight would go on.
When Mr.. DeluSe began his
work in behalf of old-age pen
sions, there was not a pension
law on the statute books of any
state. Today more than two

NEXT WAR
LIKE PRIZE IGH
By Z. w. B.

by N. w. d.
The ink grows blacker, the head
lines larger, and the columns longer
as war clouds gather on the worlds
horizon.
An impending struggle between
two nations appears inevitable, and
the whole of civilization looks on
with mounting fear. War, once
seemingly so distant, now seems
near at hand.
1t was the late Will Rogers who
stood before an indianapolis audi
ence only a few months ago and
said, Nobody wants war-nobody
unless it's the newspaper editors.
They're always startin' a war on
the front page, but that's as far as
it gets"
Mr.. Rogers, who had circled the
globe, visited in many countries and
talked with the leaders of all ma
tons, found his audience in
enthusiastic agreement with the
declaration that there amt gonna
be any fghtin', cause nObody's
mad"
How true it seemed then. How
true to Americans it seems now. And
still a war, planned and promoted
as neatly as a championship prize
fight, is promised for next month.
But though the stage is set, the
costumes ready, and the two prin-
cipal characters announced, the plot
has not been outlined beyond the
opening scene, and the supporting
cast is still unnamed.
Some one is mad, terribly mad. Not
in the sense that MI. Rogers meant,
but mad with power, pride, ambition.
We Americans are still wondering
who the last war. Perhaps be-
fore the answer to that puzzle is
found, we'll be involved in a bigger
one.

and on that Mr.. Roosevelt has made
a good record. However, thousands
Of voters stand today to vote for
any one who pledges himself 20
keep America out of another war.
Mr.. Roosevelt. to speak plainly,
welshed on neutrality legislation.
He did not wish the neutrality laws
too strong. They must be strong
to keep the frightful danger of war
from ever entering the United
States.

HE'LL NOT BE SWAYED
BY ANY LOBBY
BY Parlor Pink

BY Parlor Pink
In 1917 American citizens were
propagandized and lied to until
thousands Of them were buncoed
into a uniform. The purpose was
war-a war to save democracy and
liberty-a war which was later
found to be for the purpose Of saw
ing the bankers dollars. Eighteen
years later we find these same citi-
zens organized into the American
Legion so they can be buncoed COL
lectively.
While protesting to support our
form of government they have been
using subversive tactics to defeat
the equal opportunities which it is
supposed to guarantee to every
citizen. They have forced through
legislation which gives ex~-service
men preference for government po-
sitions and in some states exempts
~ex-service men from paying err
tain licenses. This is contrary to
our theory of government.

legislation which compels teachers to
take the oath of allegiance. This
oath threatens the teachers with the
loss of their positions unless they
advocate that which the Legion or
its p~lutocratic hackers support. This
method of compulsion is a mock
cry under any system Of free gov
eminent and smacks very much Of
Hitler. The above is also true of
the legislation which they have sup
ported to disfranchise any Ameri-
can citizen who believes in Com
mUniSm.
While protesting to have faith in
our form of government they have
shown an utter disregard for the
duties of a citizen in a democracy.
They have used subverSive methods
upon legislators for the purpose of
forcing through legislation which the

The State Agricultural Board is
making a big mistake in not using
city police at the fair. Just because
there has never been any great
amount Of disorder there in the
past is no sign that there won't
be any.
If Sheriff Otto Ray is doing this
to embarass Chief Mike Morrissey,
the situation is that much worse.
Why these two men, each respon-
sible for the public safety, continue
to fight is hard for me to see.
All the feud has accomplished is
to make both of them look silly in
the papers. If they aren't big
