Two SchOOlmates Meet.

Mr.. and Mrs. L. H. Andersen of En-
porium, Kas., were here last Thurs
day and Friday for visit at the
Fred johnson home. Mr.. Andersen
and Mr.. johnson are of the same age,
from the same place in Denmark,
started school together and sat size
by side in the school for seven years
and were confirmed together. In 1885
Mr.. johnson came to the United States
and had not seen or heard from Mr..
Andersen since-a span of 81 years.
Mr.. Andersen came to the United
States a few years later and finally
located in Kansas. He has served AZ
years with the Santa Fe railroad and
is now retired on a pension for serv-
ices we'll rendered. Only recently he
learned of his school mate being 10
Gated here, and when he read about
Minnesota's new Danish governor, in
the Kansas City Journal Post being
from Askov he decided to come here
for a visit. Needless to mention that
it was a very enjoyable visit the two
''old timers" had.

no maximum.
These stock issues, which the
bill says are to be issued in such

travelling companion. The two are
to take an airplane today from
Chicago and go directly to the
West Coast home of the legislator.
Just before leaving last night,
Zioncheck telephoned his mother
in Seattle and was told that she
is in a hospital. He asserted:
They're not only trying to
kill me; they're trying to kill
her, too"
The mystery Of how he reached
his office here after his escape
from the Maryland hospital Sun
day also was revealed before Zion
check left. He explained he fled
through the underbrush and by
dark reached the Baltimore-Wash-
ington Boulevard at the Mont
gomery-Ward plant. There he OBJ
tanned a ride on a truck driven by
a farmer who did not recognize
him, and arrived at his Capitol
office about 1870 a. m. Monday.
Finding his office door open, he
Slumped into a chair and slept
until charwomen woke him up. He
ordered them out and then locked
his door and continued his barri-
cade until influenced by Romney
to leave for Seattle.
Expressing himself forcefully
about the attempt to incarcerate
him in the Towson hospital, Zion
check said in the only statement
he issued during his self-impriSon-
ment in his Capitol office:
Had 1 not escaped from the
laSt-named place sheppard
Pratt HOSpitaD, I am certain
that I would have qualified for
an insane asylum in the near
future. 1 hate to infer that I
have been perSecuted: neverthe-
less, / have been unable to have
even a suspicion Of fair play"
When he boarded the train last
night looking Spic and span in a
linen suit, he yelled at those at
the station:
'T'm going away-but I'll be
back"

the way for Zioncheck's exit from
the District, where police were
awaiting a chance to rearrest him
and put him back in Gallinger
Hospital.
Meanwhile, police also we're

1t was thought Mrs. Zioncheck
might show up at Union Station
last night when ncheck
boarded the Chicago-bound train
and police were on hand to ap
prehend her. But she failed to
appear and did not bid her huS
band good-by. Although the
Washington State Representative
said he was worried about hel
absence, he also remarked:
81 wanted to tell her what 1
thought about her actions in
agreeing to my transfer to
Sheppard-Pratt."
1t was understood he had
talked to her on the phone yeSter
day, and might meet her en- route
to Chicago.
Romney and Representative
Tom Blanton CD of Texas ar
ranged for zioncheck's departure
last night by persuading District
Attorney Leslie c. Garrett to per.
NIT the legislator to post collateral
in connection with the assault
warrant against him and then
not appear and forfeit it.
Throughout yesterday Romney
had determinedly refused to let
Maryland or Washington police
see the Congressman as long as
he remained on Capitol grounds.
Romney told police:
you can't get ZiOncheck
without licking $50 of my men,"
When Zioncheck departed last
night he was accompanied to the
station by four Capitol policemen
and Representative Wallgren CD

testing whether the French econ
omy is able to support the extra
ordinary strain Of the increase Of
onethird in labor costs.
Labor Jubilant
This figure, cited as a fair COM
putation of the wage increase, is
arrived at as follows:
Direct wage raises ran from 10
to Is per cent, averaging IL.
The 40-hour week, at the same
weekly wages as the previous 49,
hour week, increased the hourly
wage by 20 per cent.
The two-week paid vacation
added another four per cent to
the hourly labor income, making
the total increase in hourly wages
SO per cent.
This winning Of labor's maxi
mum demands naturally cheered
the workers, but it has badly de-
pressed the employers.
Price Boost Looms
Many French businesses reco-
gnized that workers in this
country were underpaid and were
glad to an opportunity for wage
increase extending through the
whole of French industry without
disadvantage to any individual en-
ployer. But few, if any, employers
anticipated being forced to grant
an increase so large, and today
expectations are general that
French industry will be unable to
make ends meet without sharp
increase in prices.
This, in turn, by upping the cost
of living, would wipe out labor'S
recently-Won advantage, and then,
it is feared, there may come a
fresh and more menacing wave
of strikes.
This development is expected to
make itself felt about autumn.
Just now it is only getting under
way, and the opinion is that the
country at the moment is SubSid-
ing after one storm only to pre-
pare for another and possibly
greater one, when the workers,
their appetiteS whetted by victory,
may advance far more radical de-
mandS.
Candidates for the leadership of
such a movement are multiplying,
but none occupies more promi-
nent position at the moment than

born anti-Moscow Nationalist Boil
