broad hint Polly Chuck gave
him, and moved to his old house,

alone. He saw Polly every day, but
never was he allowed in that new

home when he paid a call. and she
never allowed him to put foot inside.
He didn't like that, but what could he
do about it?
A fairly near neighbor was Jimmy

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla, March
8.-Sir Malcolm Campbell and his
Bluebird never will rocket across
the sands of Daytona Beach at 300
miles an hour.
That's the truth even if the Brit
ish racing king won't admit it. Blue
bird is capable Of 300, yes. And
Campbell is game enough to pilot a
car at that speed, yes. But the
beach, shaped by the elements, is not
good enough for that kind of speed.
At 200, the beach is lovely. SO is
the car. At $50 even, it's still lovely.
But at speeds above that, minor de-
fects are magnified to an extent
that 300 is out OF the question.
Sir Malcolm went after the record
yesterday afternoon. He broke his
mark by setting pace of 276.816
miles an hour on two runs.
Coming north yesterday Campbell
dashed through the measured mile
in 12:s1 seconds, for an average

LOVE BALM BILL

bill to take the "diggers' off the

broken hearts can not &c mended

ana Senate last night, 81 to 10.
Mrs. Nicholson, only woman

The measure now returns TO the

fdently expected.
The bill would prohibit civil
causes of action for alienation OF

speed of 261.03O. Had he been able
to knock off that 81" he would
have had 300. But he couldn't do
it, for coming into the mile his
wheels slipped twice, throwing rub
Der into his face. Had the tires
held, and bit into the sand, his
dream could have been fulfilled.
They'll always slip, for it isn't
natural to expect that nature will
ever provide II miles of billiard
table beach. Somewhere down the
line vagrant wave, a puff of wind,
will leave a ripple. And ripple, at
CampbelPs speed, spells the differ
ence between success and failure.
Campbell won't say whether he's
convinced 300 is impossible. Asked
whether he would make another try
in an effort to fulfill his dream Of
300 miles an hour, he said:
Il have no plans. Right now I
don't know whether I'll go again or
not. I might rest on the 276.6l6 of
yesterday, and then again might

ATTACK VICTIM
FIGHTS FOR LIFE
Girl UndergoeS Operation on
EyebaII, Pierced by
Ice Pick.

The condition of Miss Lavina Rae
Storey, 19-year-old girl who, or
Wednesday night, was hacked with
an ice pick by Carson Noel, 45-year-
old Negro, is still critical today, it
was reported at City Hospital
The Negro, who now is serving a
41-year term in Indiana State Pris-
on at Michigan City for his crime,
drove the pick through the right
eyeball, then into the mouth of the
girl so far that the point pierced
the back of the neck and stuck in
the floor.
An operation was performed on
the eyeball and there is a chance
that the sight will be retained,
although the physicians say it is
too early to tell definitely.
Miss Storey passed fairly quiet
night and some of the pain seems
to have left. Today she took her
first nourishment since the attack.
The attack occurred in the home
of her sister, Mrs. H. w, Afford
which adjoins the Meridian Hills
golf course and is some distance
from neighboring homes.
Noel, who had worked for the
family for two years and was trust
ed, lured the girl there in the alb
sence of any member of the Afford
family.
Noel glibly told detectives after his
arrest that he was paroled after
serving 10 years for numbering his
common law wife in Kentucky, and
that he was a fugitive from another
murder charge.
+, pleaded guilty to three felonies
yesterday, was sentenced by Crimi-
nal Judge Frank P. Baker land was
hurried off to prison.

Testifying for a second day at
Senate Finance Committee hear
ings on NRA legislation. Mr.. Rich
berg said some judges who have
given adverse decisions in NRA
cases needed education in modern
economic conditions" in order TO
understand how local businesses
may affect interstate commerce.
He conceded under questioning
that pressure from big business had
the effect of forcing adoption Of
some codes which we're not entirely
satisfactory from NRA'S standpoint.
Conceding that uncertainty is re-
tsrding recovery. Mr.. Richberg said +:
If restrictions are TO be removed
on present wage levels and present
prices are not TO be sustained. the
inevitable result is a holding of in
the placing OF orders.

When we urged the desirability
of action it is Just a question as to
how this retarding effect shall hold
back business"
The recovery chief, however, gave
few immediate specific suggestions
as to how wide NRA's future scope
should be.

striction of codes to businesses
clearly engaged in interstate COM

nor and United states senator.
McNutt leaders in the House Of
Representative we're beaten de-
cisively on a motion to postpone
the bill indefinitely.
The administration previously had
been unable to beat the Swihart
bill, a similar measure, in the Senate
and the anti-administration group
in the upper house we're awaiting
action on the Dyer-Roush bill to
learn the temper of the lower
house.
Yesterday, Republican leaders
made a motion to call from COM
mittee the Dausman bill repeating
the 1915 primary law and reviving
the 1907 primary act which made
primaries compulsory in counties
having at least one city with 10000
population and optional in the
others.
To their surprise, they found
Democrats joining them in calling
the bill from committee and passing
it to second reading,
Favored by NanNuyS
Political observers saw in uthis
move a strategic blow at the Dyer
bill, which is favored by United
States Senator Frederick VanNuys
and other anti-State administration
groups.
If the DauSman bill we're enacted,
the Dyer bill virtually would be
killed because it merely amends the
1915 primary law and the Dausman
bill repeats it.
There wouldn't be anything to
amend, and the repeal bill is in line
with the platform pledges of both
parties.
The Senate, however, is reported
bound in caucus not to act on pri-
mary repeal, the Democrats at least
having repudiated their platform
pledge in this respect because of
the widespread protest against any
weakening of the primary.
Another Blow at Dyer Bill
Some state administration leaders
insist the effort to help the Repub-
licans pass the Dausman bill is
meant seriously. However. repeal is
regarded as unlikely by political OBJ
servers.
The maneuvering yesterday gen.
orally is believed to be merely an
other blow at the Dyer bill, because
administration leaders do not want
the Governor and United States
Senator nominations transferred
from the convention to the primary.
They control conventions too well
and there is a Governor nomination
to be considered not long hence.
