Jane Weston feels her dreams
have come true when she sets OIL;
on a three weeks ocean cruise,
accepted in payment for the sal.
sry due her when the magazine
for which she worked as typ:sl
suspended publication.
On board the ship she meets
handsome Dirk Strom, expert ski
jumper, as perniless as Jane. Tkc
trip was a gift to him from the
parents of child whose life he
saved.
Dirk introduces Jane 10 his
friend, Snowshoes, detective.
Others on board arc: Nora Lane,
famous actress and owner of the
kokinor diamond; wealthy, &C.
centric Madame Doremus; Dutch
Lenz and Mamie Jackson, black
mailers; Tino Rossi, opera singer;
Ken Martin and Linda Bayes,
floor show entertainers.
Dirk and Jane spend much OF
their time together. Then mis-
understanding comes between
them. Dirk hears Nora Lane COM
planning about noises near her
stateroom and trades staterooms
with her. Later she dances with
him. Mamie jackson tries to take
her picture ard she is terrified.
Dirk strikes Mannie ard smashcs

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XII
Jane did not go directly to the
bar. She went to her statero0m to
repair imaginary ravageS TO her
face and hair, and Tino waited
for her outside in the paSsageway.
She glanced in the mirror, and
stood back in wonder. Her face
had radiance it had never own
ed before.
And how well that one evening
gown had served her on this
cruise She was glad that tomor-
row they'd be on shore, and she
could wear informal clothes. One
didn't like to appear in the same
dress, night after night, and this
cruise had been one gay affair
after another.
For a moment her thoughts
drifted back to the chill Iall
winds in the city, back to her
j0bless state. But she banished
these now, as easily as she pow
dered a shiny spot off her nose.
The Bahamas were right out
there under that gorgeous moon!
She had a romantic figure in tow.
Tino didn't seem impatient
when she came out to join him.
Together they made their way
into the Venetian Room.
Last night she had made a
spectacular entry into this room,
alone, after her quarrel with
Dirk Strom. But tonight she
felt keenly this moment of per-
sonal triumph. The heady wine
OF Tino's flattery and his flowery
words had gone to her head!
They stopped at the bar, and
Jane sat on high stool where
her reddish head glistened under
the lights. At her side Tino made

Foreign observers are agreed

Boy Thought Killing

Once in Kentucky, Elmer re.

an argument over possession of
property. A quarrel ensued, he
said, and one man shot the other
to death. That was five years ago.
A month ago, when the former
Gapville (Ky.) boy decided he
wanted a car he thought he would
have to kill to get it, he said.
Elmer killed Melvin Whaley, SO,
so he could take Whaley's eight
year-old car and drive to Ohio
to see his mother, said to be liv-
ing in Willard.

Didn't you know you could
have stolen Mr.. Whaley's car

to shoot him?"

Latin Republics Fear
European Invasion

Latin America it would offer an
instant challenge to the Monroe
Doctrine and possibly involve the
United States in war.
The United States is deter
mined that, if possible, it shall
not again be drawn into war.
One Of its principal efforts at
Buenos Aires will be directed at
erecting a stronger wall against
penetration of the Americas by
powers of the Eastern Hemi-
sphere.
Rewrite Doctrine
Two proposals are expected to
be made to effect this end:
/. Rewrite the Monroe Doctrine
as a multi-lateral instrument to
embrace all the American re-
publics.
2. Extend the neutrality act to
make for collective action.
AS it exists now, the cele-
brated doctrine is a policy of the
United States alone, putting Eu-
rope and Asia on notice that ag-
gressive acts in the American
sphere of influence will not be
tolerated.
To Have FL Sign
The proposal is to have each Of
the 81 republics embrace the doc
trine to present a united front
against any effort by a non-Ameri'
can State to gain a further toot-
hald in the Western Hemisphere.
Secretary of State Cordell Hull,
head of the United States delega-
tion, also hopes to persuade the
other republics to adopt the neu-
trality act now in. force in this
country.
Under it, an embargo is de-
clared on shipment of arms, am
munition or implements of war,
and loans are barred, to belliger-
ent nations.
