|ALL IN A DAY

He stopped long enough to un.
wrap the paper.
Gazing admiringly at the con.
tents of the box, he attempted
to cross the street. And so en-.
crossed was he that he failed to
notice that the lights were
against him-and what hap
pened after that came within
inches of being a tragedy.
The cab driver shouted, but
it was too late. George went
Sprawling into the gutter. In
the space of a few moments, no
less than two dozen people ap-
peared from nowhere and made
themselves helpful by staring
stupidity at the unfortunate
man. An officer came along a
short time later, and George
was shipped off to a hospital.
There was no actual damage
done. The man was a trifle
shaken up, and there were a few
superficial bruises, none of
which were serious. He was
discharged from the hospital
the very same night.
Thus, at the time when he
would have ordinarily been re-
turning from work, George
dragged himself painfully from
a taxi and hobbled to his door.
After the events of the past few
hours, he unused, home would
seem a very sweet place indeed.
It would seem good to relax in
the comfort and peace of his lit
tie nest. So thought George.
But he had scarcely set foot
within the door before he real
lied that something was very
much amiss. The bureau draw.
ers were tossed about, and there
was every evidence that the
place had undergone a thorough
ransacking.
The little woman came out to
greet him, red-eyed and nervous.
Thieves!
"Oh, George" she burst out,
''the most terrible thing hap
pened! I went to the movies
this afternoon and, when l re-
turned, 1 found that thieves had
broken in. Broad daylight or
not, they got away with every
single thing of any value"
Her husband made an at
tempt to comfort ner.
There, Mollie," he soothed.
Don't take on so. Of course,
it is mighty unfortunate, right
at this time at any rate"
He hesitated. This wasn't ex-
actly the spot to impart the sad
information that he had lost his
job. But it had to be done some
time, and there was no use put
ting it off. So he plunged into
the story. He told her of being
fired, and of the accident that
had almost completed his Ca
reer.
Mollie began to cry once more.
cts terrible, George" she
The Washington times., 1935-01-10

} whimpered. Especially since
those thieves took every cent we
had in the house. We have moth.
ing now, the moneys gone and
there's no more coming in"
She stopped. Her face cleared
as she remembered something.
We'll, at least" she went on,
''you have a few dollars. That
will keep us going for a day or
so until we figure out some way
of getting hold of some money.
You have SIS or so, haven't you,
dear?"
George gazed at her morosely.
He shocked his head.
mot now" he answered. "I
did have it this morning. But
spent it. I was going by one Of
those auction rooms this noon
and just dropped in for a
moment. Well, there was a bar
gain there couldn't let go by.
It was one Of those Chinese
places -"
His wife made an impatient
gesture.
"And you spent our last cent
and lost your job besides! Oh,
The Washington times., 1935-01-10

They send joshing notes to
each other. Lindbergh Stares
steadily ahead. Hauptmann
stares steadily ahead. Judge
Trenchard smiles absently.
Mr.. Pope of the defense is
vitality interested in those lad
ders. He would have them
eliminated as exhibits until
the State definitely proves
they can be linked with De-
fendant Hauptmann. Prosecu-
tor Wilentz assures the judge
and Mr.. Pope that in time he
will prove the link. Step by
step, nail by nail until he
drives that ladder into Haupt-
mann"
Now there is a great to do
about measurements. How far
can a man reach from the top
rung.
Has anybody a tape meas
ure in this room," asks Judge
Trenchard.
This is almost like a Gil
bert and Sullivan play. One
reporter confides to another
that he neglected to bring
tape measure but still has his
tape worm.
A Mr.. Rosenheim who owns a
lunchroom in the Bronx is a
happy witness. He is eager to
please all around and confides
to a query from Mr.. Wilentz that
eventually hopes to have sev-
eral branches to his enterprise.
He serves the best people and
the best food to the best people.
DR.. Condor, he insists, has often
dropped into his place as often
as three times a day-six times
a week.
Oh yes, there are many light
moments and a few happy tit
ters to enliven the dreary day
but the tall, curly-headed Lind
bergh sits stolidly in his seat,
staring ahead and the tall, i'm
passive Hauptmann sits as un-
moved as if he were a critic at
a play which he is attending
against his better judgment and
which already has won his dis
approval.
Noon Recess
At the noon recess, just be-
fore he is led out, however, a
newSpaperman shouts across to
him and he leans forward and
smiles broadly. 1t is the first
time I have seen him smile and
it is surprising what it does to
that inscrutable face. There is
a Softening around the mouth
and gentle lines creep in around
those harsh, cold eyes.
The haggard face of his wife
seems constantly turned in his
direction. It darkens with anger
twice-one when the aged Aman-
dus Hochmuth points his quiv-
ering finger of accusation
again when Cab Driver Perrone
makes his melodramatic gesture.
PugiliSt AL Reich, spade-nosed
and dish-eared, lumbers up to
the stand. He is good-natured
about this business a grin
never deserts his lips. He in
sists he drove Jafsie to the
cemetery rendezvous with John"
and is equally insistent that he
saw John" drop down over the
9-foot gate. Yes, he saw the doc
tor and John" settle themselves
on a green bench near the shack.
How does he know it was
The Washington times., 1935-01-10

green-how could he see so far?
Simple. He has seen benches
before-they were always green.
The judge smiles-and Reich
grins up affectionately.
But just then DR.. Condor has
entered and I reserve my in
vestigation for a later date.
A girl reporter edges over
toward Hauptmann and asks a
few questions about the accuS-
ing fingers of Hochmuth and
Perrone.
"Silly," he murmurs. 80 silly
I can't tell you."
A brief outburSt after the cpl
sode with Perrone and he is
calm and unmoved again. He
reminds me, somehow, of those
electric gates at the Pennsyl-
vania station. You simply point
a finger and they sweep wide
open-only to close a second
later. Hauptmann is very much
like that.
The Washington times., 1935-01-10
The Bargain

A man Of the most ex-
emplary habits, George Will
son had one failing. He had
an almost unconquerable
weakness for auction sales.
Whenever an auctioneer barked
cut, "Step right in, gentlemen!
Right in, away from the door!",
George accepted it as personal
invitation. On more than one
occasion, his little failing had
caused him plenty of trouble.
AS our story opens, we find
the man hurrying out OF an
auction room with a small pack.
age clutched tightly in his fist.
George was hurrying for the
simple reason that he had lin
gered we'll past the allotted hour
that his firm allowed it's en-
ployeS for lunch. And he was
worried. For Georges boss was
no tolerant soul who overlooked
little matters like unpunctuality.
George hurried from the ele-
vator, hung up his hat and coat,
and took his accustomed posi-
ton behind his desk. But he
might have saved himself just
that much trouble, for he was
barely seated when the sum-
mons came from the inside
office.
Worried and trembling, the
man approached his employer.
Eyes, Mr.. Pinkle?" he queried
timidly.
Mr.. Pinkle wheeled around on
his swivel chair. He fixed
George with stern glare.
Wilson" he began harshly,
"you were late again this noon
time. I believe I told you not
long ago that the next time
you were late it would mean
your dismissal. Because we
must maintain some sort of dis.
cipline here in the office, and
because your unpunctual habits
are setting bad example to the
others, I am going to do just as
I threatened-discharge you."
George attempted to remon-
Strate.
1T was totally unavoidable,
SIR" he protested. IL stopped
in to do an errand, and l was
detained"
Mr.. Pinkle waved hand.
No Excuses
mo excuses this time" he
cried, I'm tired of listening to
them" He turned away with
an air of finality. you've had
too many chances as it is. Now
please clear out of here-and
don't come back.
George walked glumly away
from the office building. His
hands were thrust deep into his
pockets. When one of them
touched the object he had pur-
chased, his face frightened.

Foggy Days in Pennington

FLEMINGTON, N. j., Jan. 1O-It was too dra-
matte, if anything. The fog curtained the win
loose-necked toy manikin, advanced slowly and
placed trembling gnarled forefinger on the knee
of the thinnish, calm-faced defendant. AS if by
.He-panned stage directions, the lights have gone
out. The thinnish, firm-jawed defendant stares
steadily at his accuser and shrugs his shoulders.

and CWA worker, mounts the

him the cue.
Who is the man that gave

rs he in this room?"
"YeS, sir"
The stout woman juror at the
end, Mrs. Verna Snyder, an apa-
thetic figure who spends most
OF her time studying the cell
ing or the rear walls of the over
crowded courtroom, is suddenly
electrified into attention.
Come down and point him
out, please" purrs the prosecu-
tor.
Cab Driver Perrone straightens
his tie, thrusts out his chin, and
then steps with alacrity toward
Defendant Hauptmann.
He places a hand on his
shoulder.
That" he cries out melodra
matically, sis the man."
The hitherto imperturable
Hauptmann sneers and rasps,
"You're a liar"
o yes, this melodrama moves
swiftly on to its denouement and
its interludes are marked with
lighter touches and levity.
The Judge Surveys
Benignly, Judge Trenchard
surveys the clashing attorneys
Reilly for the defense, Wilentz
for the State. Calmly, he studies
their protests and quietly he
makes decisions. An open win
dow disturbs him.
II am susceptible to
draughts," he acknowledges
freely and unashamedly. The
window is closed.
II am inclined to think" he
repeats again and again, as
slowly, almost heSitantly he
makes a decision in favor of
one or the other. There is little
demurring from either side at
his conclusions. Each seems
eager to ingratiate himself with
the gentle, serene-faced arbiter
on the bench.
Reilly, full-faced, florid, bel
Igerent, bullies the States wit
neSSes. Wilentz, slender, olive
completioned, is quieter and
seems to be sympathetic.
Members of the State police
climb to the stand. There is
much fuss about ladders.
Gentlemen and ladies of the
press shift restlessly in their
seats during this interlude.
