and little haggard. She looked at
Gregg obliquely, resenting his COM
placency, his fresh shave, his alert
appearance.
Their quarrel had started over some
forgotten triviality. Kathie had made
an issue of it. They had been mar
ried nearly two years now, and Gregg
had been neglecting her.
Kathie was blond, young and pretty.
She knew she was pretty and she
wanted some one to tell her so once
in a while.
Kathie placed his toast before him
and returned to the kitchen.

HIS eggs were less than three-min-
ute eggs, but he ate them greedily.
The toast was cold and trifle black
at the edges, but he didn't complain.
Il see wheat has dropped cents a
bushel," he said, staring at his news
paper. He was as exasperating as
that every morning.
Kathie moved the percolator away
from the cup, toward Gregg's hand.
Two or three drops splashed upon his
fingers. He jerked his hand away,
wiped it with napkin. "Kathie.

I'm sorry" Her first words this
morning.
He made a deprecatory gesture with
his napkin. "oh, that's quite all
right"
She glanced at the china clock.
You'd better hurry. You'll be late. /"
Gregg said, "Yes. DEAR" and folded
his newspaper. He arose, humming
o snappy tune.
He went upstairs and hadn't come
down yet when Kathie removed his
breakfast things. Finally she heard
his unhurried step upon the stairs.
He came back to the kitchen.
"Oh. Kathie, got you the ticket
you asked me to-" He was searching
in his pockets. "One-way ticket was
what you wanted, wasn't it?"
Kathie swayed o little. 'Ticket?"
she asked hoarsely. Then, remem-
bering that in her anger yesterday she
had told him to buy her ticket for
Detroit, that she would go home, she
said, "Oh, yes. The ticket"
She wiped her hands on her apron
and waited. Her eyes were moist and
she had to blink rapidly to keep back
the tears.
That he should have thought she
meant that!
He dragged an envelope from his
pocket, handed it to her. He turned
away, humming that silly little tune
again.
"Gregg!"
He halted, turned with haste. eyes,

Kathie was fiustered.
"You didn't get in very early last

REVOLUTION HAS
BROKEN OUT in
GREECE TODAY
Rebels Seize Public Build

DestrOyers Rushed

Athens, Aug. 5-(UP)-A revo-
luton broke out today in Gambia,
on Crete Island, center Of the re-
volt of Eleutherios venizelos, anti
monarchist leader.
The rebelts occupied public build
ings of Gambia. The government
dispatched two destroyers and SOL
diers to put down the uprising.
Ever since the Venizelist revolt,
Greek public opinion has been ex-
cited over the monarchical prob
lem. The government has promised
a plebiscite on the question wheth-
err former King George should be
returned to the throne.
Disagree ON Issue
Because of disagreement on this
issue, Gen. George Condyllis, min
lister of war who put down the
Venizelists, resigned from the cab
met July 10. He came out then for
a monarchy. 1t was reported then
that Condylis planned revolt.
However, the cabinet was revised
and Premier Panagiotis Tsaldaris
retained him.
There have peen some strikes by
union men who want the republic
to remain.
Saldaris sent Mayor 4.otzias Of
Athens to London to see former
King George, and George told Kot-
zias he would not return to the
throne except as the result Of u
popular vote in his favor.

Providence, r. l., Aug. 5.-(UP)
Rhode Island voters prepared to
go to the polls tomorrow in an
election that will provide the first
strength since invalidation of the
test of President Roosevelt's
MIRA.
Interest conferred on the contest
for congressman in the first dis
to fill the vacancy caused by the

EXPENDITURE OF
FERA FUND HAS
HEIGHTENED UP
Balance Left Over Every
Week Cannot Be Applied
to Following Week

Continuing to tighten regula-
tions governing the expenditure of
FERA funds the state administra-
ton has issued instructions to the
effect that balances left over from
the weekly allotments will no long
er be applied on the grant for the
following week, 1t was annonced
today.
The ruling means, in effect, that
payroll requirements must be esti-
mated to fit the allotments as they
are made each week and that the
number Of hours worked will vary
considerably week by week, de-
pending on the size of the grant,
according to William M. Harris,
FERA administrator.
No Reserve Fund
Under the regulation 1t will no
longer be possible for administra-
tors to build reserve funds" from
balances unusued on previous
>payrolls as was the case in the
past. On several occasions the
reserve accumulated by Mr.. Harris
here enabled the local admins
tration to continue work on regu-
lar schedule although the appro-
priations were reduced.
Uncertainty in regard to the
amount of the grants to be made
in the future by the federal gov
eminent and the consequent neces-
sity for appropriating the fund as
carefully as possible is believed to
be the reason for the introduction
of the new policy.
The state commission, which Is
given the appropriation semi
monthly, cannot supply any def.
mite information to the cities until
the size of the appropriation IL
made known by national authori-
ties. Each community therefore
will have to make its payroll esti-
mates immediately after receiving
natice of the ALLEGATION for the
week.
