D0RE BOASTS
RADICALISM
IN SEATTLE

SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 9
uN.S0.-Openly making a pro-
Roosevelt and pro-radical issue out
OF the violent suppression of the
Seattle PoSt-Intelligencer, Mayor
John F. Dore was on record to-
day as using his power as head
OF the Seattle city government to
compel submission of the mob
barricaded newspaper to a hand
full of striking editorial workers
or abandon publication perma-
nently.
Boosting that he considered
himself radical, the mayor made
another violently partisan address
at q Bellingham (WaSh.) Labor
Day gathering, urging the re-
election in November of President
Roosevelt and the defeat of two
leading conservative candidates
for governor in Washington'S pri-
maries yesterday-Governor Clar-
ence D. Martin, Democrat. and
former Governor Roland H. Hart
ley, Republican.
Strike Lauded
His partisan appeal was linked
with the 0lforced suspension of
the PostEntelligencer, Seattle'S
only morning newspaper. which
he declared ''is the finest thing
that ever happened to the labor
movement of this State"
At the same time, Doce openly
gave credit for his election last
spring to labor organizations, men
tioning specifically the TeamsterS'
Union whose leader is Dave Beck,
Seattle labor cZar. Beck is
charged with having been a NOV
ing influence in events leading to
suspension of the Post-Intelligencer
by a strong-arm mob of terrorists.
League Grows
Meanwhile with the barricade
of the Post-Intelligencer ending
its fourth week with no immediate
prospects that 1t Will resume
publication, voluntary member
ships continued to pour into the
Law and Order League, the spon-
taneous movement to bring lawful
conditions back tC Seattle.
The organization was formed on
the wave of public indignation
over the open alliance between
city authorities and the labor and
radical groups which suppressed
the Post-Intelligencer by strong
arm methods.
F. R. Singleton, executive Secre-
tary, said an executive committee
of citizens representing all law
abiding elements in the city would
be announced within the next few
days to direct the movement.

Question of Sex
Too Silly For
Helen Stephens

NEW YORK, Sept. 8 Q.N.SO.
It's a laugh to Helen Stephens,
Olympic sprint champion: Girls
changing into boys.
She refused today to discuss
the controversy about her sex,
started when Stella Walsh, Polish
Sprinter, whom she defeated in
the Olympics, asked that she be
examined to prove she's a girl.
She said:
"The whole things just silly.
"In the heat of competition
Stella just lost her head a bit.
OF course 1 never had to sub
nit to an examination. Not
that / wouldn't have been glad
to do so If they wanted me to-"
She seemed more interested in
watching the floor show of a
Broadway night club than in dis
cussing her triumphs at Berlin.
Dressed in her white Olympic
sweater, plain blue skirt, and low
heeled shoes, with athletic pins
in the lapels Of her tailored coat,
the broad-shouldered girl seemed
out of place in the smoky night
club.
But she took everything in her
long stride, and soon seemed as
much at home as any of the
platinum blondes half her size.
She asserted:
Right now I'm interested in
a swell shopping tour to get
some clothes, then back to Will
liamS Woods College for me.
From then on I'm looking
to Tokyo and the 1910 OIym-
pics. No professionalism and

well, if prizes were handed out
for nerve" Gay told herself now,
It'd certainly stand a good chance
to win one! And the silliest part
of it all is that I'm no nearer
landing rich society man for q
husband than I was six months
ago. It's not so easy, this getting
married."
At noon, there was little hustle
of activity. Some men came for
lunch, and it made a welcome
change for Gay to have someone
to speak to, though it was only:
"Your check, sir"
Eyes, sir"
'The grill rooms open until two
thirty, sir, for the table d'hote
lunch"
After three o'clock, everything
was quiet again. Gay felt that
the long afternoon would never
end. This was Blue Monday, and
no mistake.
If only there'd been something
to look forward to, in the evening.
But she had no engagement, and
with Mark Vance out Of town
there'd be no posing that week.
Gay frowned in angry discomfort
as she contemplated long, soli-
tary evening in the fiat on Erskine
street. And she couldn't even af-
ford a movie!
I'm getting spoiled" she adj
mitted to herself. II crave fun

once slangily taxed her with do

luxury and amusement. Restless

something to do, somewhere to go.
Discomfort with all the simpler
things of life
Frankly, she didn't want to read
any more, or ride on top of buses,
or go on picnics to Belle Isle or
River Rouge, as Jean and her boy
friends did, summer venings.
Those outings seemed silly and
cheap, now, in comparison with the
way society people amused them
selves.

windows of her apartment.
Mondays, were always dull, but
this particular Monday, coming
after the excitement of that week
end at Lake Paradise, seemed
almost unendurably tiresome. How
grand life would be, if you didn't
have to go back to work, Gay
thought, punching the time clock
in the basement of the Pontchar-
train club. If you only could have
fun, and dancing, and weekend
parties all the time, forever and
ever!
Outside, the rain fell in a steady
downpour. Several people who
had arranged for luncheons or
afternoon parties, telephoned can
cellatiOns. If she'd even been per-
mitted to read, it wouldn't be so
tedious. But the club management
forbade reading in working hours,
so Gay sat in the courtroom, her
hands in her lap, with no diver
sion but her restless thoughts.

ruefully, as she recalled the Will

had been turned a little by the
fattery and obvious admiration of
all the men.

CHAPTER 81

WAYNES sudden aug h t e r
stopped Gay. "Some house party,
this is! One guest nearly dies of
heart failure; another gets a piece
Of glass in his eye. And you had
a hand in both accidents" he
leased. II think after this I'll
keep away from parties where
you're included!
ITO be perfectly honest with
you," he added, in the same ban
tering tone, I've been off you, very
definitely, all week. 1 didn't like
the way you turned me down, and
chose Tirn's company. after the
housewarming party.
"An day yesterday, even last
night, I felt that I wouldn't care
particularly if I never saw you
again."
"Quite nasty disposition, If you
ask me, Mr.. Adams"
But today" he held out his
hand, and his voice softened, "to-
day is something else again. Let's
agree to bury the Ratchet, and be
friends"
The tenderness in the clasp Of
his hand did something startling to
Gay.
Outside, in the stiffness Of that
summer morning, a blue jay was
calling mp t ently, and all
through her life the harsh note of
blue jay revived that moment of
revelation.
In spite of herself, she had fallen
head over heels in love with
Wayne. There wasn't the slightest
use denying it, or fighting against
1t. She adored him.
But she didn't want to be in
love, she cried out furiously, within
herself. Love upset all your plans;
did things to you; made you blind
to your own best interests.
Great depression, wild exhilara-
ton, filed her.
II love you, love you'll" her heart
was telling him but she gave no
betraying sign as she returned the
pressure of his fingers, and asked:
$50 you'll be an invalid for a few
weeks? Won't you need a nurse ?"
There's been stampede for the
job, all morning." he grinned. 'But
I'd hire you, sight unseen. Sign on
the dotted line, and report for duty
at my apartment tomorrow morn

in mind her schedule at the Pont-

II wasn't really serious. And
Tim will be keeping you busy from

His voice was incre dulous.

mo I'm not. I'll come over, if
you'd like me to-and read, and
light your cisarets- You see,
feel as though it were my fault,
really, that you were hurt last
night. I'm trying to prove I'm
grateful for the way you saved

Grace Larrimore entered.
She was wearing Longing pa

that Gay sighed wordlessly in adj
miration.
II must see for myself how you
look, Wayne dearest. I don't trust
Johnny Wilson's report Of you.
Was I gone too long?"
A murnlur of excuse on her lips,
a sharp physical pang Of jealousy
stabbing her at the picture of
Grace bending over Wayne with
sweet ownership. Gay fled from
the room.
