Police whistles were blowing and the
crowd that had scattered closed in
again to see the fun. A blue-coated
officer grabbed Marty by the arm and

Marty was dressed and out of his
room in something under nothing
fiat. At the entrance to the downtown
subway station, however, he halted
abruptly. Squarely in front of him
stood withered old blind peddler.
Sudden apprehension seized young
Marty Harris. One of the immutable
superstitions of the theater forbade
one to pass blind man without drop
ping a coin into his cup.
Marty hesitated only an instant
With the offer from D. j. Wilmont in
his pocket he didn't dare tempt fate,
and besides it was Friday. So, with a
smile on his face, he dropped his
quarter, the one and only coin he
possessed, into the blind beggar's cup
and headed for downtown on foot.
Promptly on the tick of IL Marty
breezed into Wilmonts office. A tight
Tipped secretary met him, nodding
coolly despite the sitting August heat

Georgia Lawler?" Marty almost
yelped. Georgia Lawler-is she to be
in the show, too?"
Marty left Wilmont's office on the
dead lope. Without subway fare he'd
have to walk.
Around 1880 Marty dragged his
swollen feet down the bank of the
Hudson River and hailed the tender
belonging to Wilmont's yacht.
"You, Mr.. Harris?" a voice called
up from the power tender at the foot
of the land. IF you are, all the

A|RMA|L REVENUE
MAY Be 100000
Gains in Volume Point to
New High for Year, but
Deficit Seen.

Marvellous" increases in airmail
volume during recent months, in
dicating revenues from this source
totaling $6,5O0000 to s7,ooo.000 thi
year, were reported yesterday by Act
ing Postmaster General Harllee
Branch.
For the first time in the history of
the United States airmail, more than
1000, 900 pounds were carried during
March, Branch said. Volume has
exceeded that figure for every sue
ceeding month. except July, for which
figures are not available Branch re-
ported 1,oo2,26s pounds carried in
March, 1,036,7s6 in April. 1,1os,315
In May-the all-time record high
and 1,082,819 In June.
Branch said that as the result OF
the substantial recent increases in
sirmail volume revenues already were
running well ahead of what they were
under the old cents for the first
ounce rate, displaced July l, 1884,
by the present Scent rate
Despite the increase, however, the
cost to the Government of providing
the service is such that deficit of
some S8,O00,000 from airmail opera
ton is in prospect for this year. The
subsidy totals $1o,70O,000 and in
creased rates to contractors, con-
templated in a bill scheduled for
passage at this session of Congress,
add another $1,300,000. Besides. the
actual cost to the Post Office Depart
ment of handling airmail approx
mates $3,000,000. On the black side
Of the ledger, therefore, would be only
the expected 100000 in revenues
contrasted with some $15,000.000 in
expenses.
Branch pointed out, however, that
the cost of maintaining airmail serv-
ice had been slashed about so per
cent below that of two or three years
ago, although the service has been
measurably improved by the addition
Of Is per cent more route miles and
the extension of service to four more
States and 65 more cities.
Branch foresaw drastic reductions
In the cost of maintaining the sub
sidy. Under the present system, he
said. some of the bigger companies
may be cut off the subsidy within q
few years, while others will have their
payments from the Government re-
duced in accordance with increases
