While the Democratic conven.

delphia today, the youngest mem.
Der Of the Senate, and the
latest to break from Administra-
tion ranks, sits in his office and
ponders his political future.
He is Rush D. Holt CD of
West Virginia, who came to the
Senate a year ago full Of enthu-
siasm for the New Deal" but
now, he said, he is quite diSillu-
stoned and wonders what to do.
Holt broke with the Admins
tration over the Works Progress
Administration. He carried his
fight against the relief agency
to the Senate floor. His cam
paign to rid that organization
of politics" attracted a bipar-
tisan group and led to a resolu-
tion calling for a sweeping inves-
tigation of the entire setup. It
was blocked by committee head
ed by Administration men,"
So Holt has launched a stay

ment. He said he has not yet
made up his mind actually to
oppose President RooSevelt's re-
election, but he does intend to
"think things over"
He will spend part of the sum-
mer writing a book. It's tempo
rary title is zone Year in the
Senate" Holt said he will tell Of
"alI the political intrigue of that
great deliberative body" and will
also reveal the workings of the
political dictators in the Senate, !"
which, he added, will never be
able to take me under their wing"

CHANGE DUE,
HOWEVER, AT
CONVENTION
Democratic Nominees
Slated to Be Picked
ByMajorityVote
By WILLIAM s. NEAL


PHILADELPHIA, June 2:
G.N.SJ-A last-ditch battle tc
maintain the famous Democratic
two-thirds rule was opened today
by the solid South" as the party
convention prepared to make the
historic change.
In the face of overwhelming
sentiment among party leaders fol
nomination Of presidential candi
dates by a majority vote, SpokeS
men for Southern States threat
ened to carry their fight to the
convention floor.
AS delegates saw the powerful
veto power of the South slipping
away they hoped to make such
vigorous fight that party leaders
will decree a complete change in
convention rules which will, at
least, recognize the regularity Of
the Southern States.
Bonus" Plan Favored
Adoption of the Republican
plan Of selecting delegates. on
the basis Of the last national
election, with States that vote
Democratic being given a dele
gate bonus was suggested by
many Southern leaders.
Under the present rule North.
ern States are given the same
relative representation as the
South even though they fail to
give their electoral votes to the
party nominee. The number OF
delegates is based on congress
sional districts.
After the Georgia delegation
voted five to one to oppose abro.
cation, Representative E. E. Cox
Of Georgia said:
"We will carry our fight to
the convention floor II neceS-
sary. Abrogation of the rule
would tend to destroy the in.
fIuence Of the smaller States
in national affairs"
But Senator Bennett Champ
Clark of Missouri, who will be
chairman of the rules committee,
was certain that the convention
will vote overwhelmingly for re-
peal. He said confidently:
1--WE will get 700 to 800 votes
out of the 1,1OO in the COnven-
ton for repeal"
DANIELS OPPOSES
Scattering sentiment for repeal
was found in many Southern
States. Ambassador to Mexico
JoSephus Daniels, one of tn {
party elders, declared for major
ity rule and said that the South
has no right to the veto power
given by the rule. Senator Byrnes
Of South Carolina said:
South Carolina will oppose
abrOgation, but it seems to be q
foregOne conclusion that the
rule will be changed"
Senator McKellar Of Tennessee
said:
'T imagine our folks will Op-
pose the move"
The first break in a threatened
coalition of small States against
the change came when Arizone
decided to go along with the party
leadership. The big Pennsylvania
delegation voted unanimously fol
abrogation.
Rumors that repeal of the two
thirds rule is planned so thai
President Roosevelt can breal
another precedent and accept 6
third term were started by op
ponents Of the change. The rum
ors were scoffed at by party lead
erS.

.Debat ers Prepare
For South Atlantic
Tournament
(From The Pioneer)

Catawba's debating teams, both
affirmative and negative, are work
ing in preparation for the South
Atlantic Forensic Tournament at
Winthrop College, Rock He'll, S. c.,
on March $, &, and 7.
Having gained valuable training
and experience from the dual de-
bate here with Erskine College last
Friday, and strengthened by other
clashes, all the debaters are amend
ing their arguments to present the
strongest strategy. In the tourna-
ment each team will probably have
six rounds of debating against var
ious out-of-state colleges and I'M
iversities. Six states were represent
ed at the S. A. F. 7. last year.
Nicely cCubbins, Luther Hopes,
Edward Stull, and Harold VOL
finger will be accompanied by Prof.
Lane to the tournament, where Ca
tawba debating teams have made
good records for the past two
years.

The music whirred to to slow stop.

Jenny was in a light-hearted
mood when the Marenia anchored
off Paknam in a thick heat haze.
Her mind was no longer locked in
high tension, and she talked with
delicate animation. For three days
Peter had been his old tender self.
So far as she knew, he had seen
nothing Of Clare. Going ashore, she
wore a gay flowered frock of pop
py silk and a wide straw hat.
"Pm happy today, Peter" she
announced.
"Why r you happy, Jenny?'
His gaze was on her suddenly, cool
and searching. He caught her hand,
turned it over and kissed the cup

ped palm. Jenny did not answer
Peter brought out his cigarette
case, a flat gold one, with his in.
itials engraved in the corner. Jenny
had always admired it, and she fell
sure that there was a story con-
nected with it, for he seemed te
prize it more than any other thing
he possessed. He took out a ciga-
@rette, flipped the case over to her
and remarked; "Put it in your bag
Jenny"
"Why?"
Merely because I want you to.
It's something Pm extraordinarily
fond of. Don't forget that"
"You must expect to have your
pockets picked in Bangkok"
"Perhaps I do"
He smiled and she dropped it in
to her bag.
Leaving the train at Bangkok,
they drove past trim white houses
and through immaculate streets.
They boarded a launch and sail
ed up the Menam to the kings
palace, slowly approaching the watts
that cluster around it. The scene
seemed to Jenny to have sprung
full blown from the pages of Hans
Anderson. They walked past the
devas, giant grotesques intended to
brighten away the devils.
II think when we choose our
home in England. I should like a
deva to guard my door," said Jen-
ny, laughing at the spiked mons
tiers.
They wandered through the
courtyards of the compound, Jen-
ny's face alight with interest. Pc
ter was silent. She had rarely seen
him lock so handsome.
"1t's nearly twelve o'clock" he
remarked, twisting his elbow to
look at his wrist watch.
AS if time mattered in the least!
| feel that this is a spot where
hours have no meaning"
They went into the temple that
held the Emerald Buddha. 1t was
like going into a dark cave filled
with green water. For several min
utes they could see nothing but a
filtered jade mist, for the sun was
still in their eyes. Jenny leaned on
her parasol and rested.
Jenny darling!" said Peter, urg-
emily.
"Yes?" She swung around inre-
spouse to something in his voice.
He touched her hand and whis-
pered: "It's nothing. 1t doesn't
matter, but you're very helpless,
aren't you, dear?"
She noticeeshat he looked a lit
tie strained, md that his hands
were SHAKING.

was so unlike Ohonto. Mr.. Charl-
ton roared with laughter every
time she said it. Some nights,
things were rather quiet next door,
with only one man in the room and
nothing much in the way of noise,
except a clinking of glasses and an
occasional burst of laughter. There
must be a party going tonight.
She could hear the voices of at
least four different men, and their
hostess seemed to be feeling gay.
Miss Nudge wondered what it
would be like to be surrounded by
four different men, all of whom
probably wanted to kiss one. The
idea did not appeal to her SO much
as having one man in that mood.
There must surely be very little
point to public lovemaking. Things
were quiet next door for a minute
or two, and her thoughts flowed
back to Mr.. Charlton. She imag-
ined herself in his arms, dancing
with him, while he leaned down to
kiss her cheek.
Miss Nudge sat up straight in
bed as she heard loan Fosters
laughter come splintering through
the partition.
Lets throw him OUT" one Of
the men exclaimed. TITS time to
break up, anyway. One more song
and we'll leave little Joan To her
beauty Sleep"
Miss Nudge was sure that it was
the voice of the man whose wife
was i'll.
They had all gone now, except
the man who usually stayed the
longest. The conversation was
pitched on a lower note, and there
were long pauses when nothing was
said at all.
At last she fell asleep, but not
for long. Weakening with a sense
of disturbance, she switched on the
light over her bed to look at her
watch. Half-past three and a COM
motion next door! Miss Foster and
her friend were singing at the pitch
of their voices. A glass went smash
and the song broke off.
Miss Nudge disappeared beneath
the clothes until only her hairpin-
ned fringe showed. Miss Foster
started the yictrola, choosing the
song, 81 wanna be loved: As soon
as it was finished, she put it on
again. By the tenth time it was
getting a little boring. An hour
later the man stumbled out of the
cabin. Still the victrola went on.
Miss Nudge was desperately
tired. The girl must be mad. Sit
ting up in bed, she knocked hest
family on the wall, but there was
no reply, except the clinking of ice
in a glass. Seven o'clock and the
music still went on, like a t%ireless
hurdy-gurdy.
Worn out, Miss Nudge fell asleep
at last. A noise wakened her at
ten. The victrola was grinding the
same refrain. At last she was

"That was to bury a member Of

But Dick was going on: Don't
forget that this is a village afloat,
and not nearly 20 peaceful as the
anchored variety. Do you want to
know what's really going on around
you among the passengers? In
one stateroom a husband comes
in late from a poker game each
night and threatens to kill his wife.
They're a lowry pair from Cleve-
land who curse and swear at each
other, and are always drunk. We've
had to go in and still them a few
times. I think he'll murder her
yet, when he gets drunk enough"
continued Dick.
"And there's the little teacher
who has been saving her pennies
for twenty years to go around the
world and now that she's on the
boat, she's afraid she hasn't money
enough to take her safely home.
She daren't go ashore by herself,
because of the constant demand for
tips and fees"
TITS Miss Nudge, isn't it," in
terrupted Patty.
Eyes, since you've guessed it,
and a very good sport, too"
"Then there's the man who's
running away from his wife and
is deluged with frantic radios every
day. And the American whose for
tune has shrunk from seven mill
ions to blue ruin since he sailed.
Haven't you een him hanging
around the stock-board? He faces
bankruptcy and endless troubles
when he gets back. And there's
the spinster who filled her pockets
with pebbles by the Sea of Galilee,
and has fallen madly in love with
the captain, who has never spoken
a wocd to fsE.
"Oh, how thrilling!" cried Pat
ty. II never thought of it in that
light. Do you always have things
like this happen on a cruiser"
"Of course we do. This is a
comparatively dull one SO far. I've
given you only the ketchiest idea
of what takes place on a cruising
boat. I call it ocean madness. Roll
a score of Atlantic crossing into
one; add moonlight on Waikiki
Beach, sunset on the Indian Ocean,
night in Picking, cherry blossoms in
Japan; fling together men and wo-
men away from their homes, their
friends, the forces that impose res
train-and what have you?"

Patty lay awake for hours that
night, thinking of the Marenia as a
vast building with dozens of sepa-
rate apartments, and a little drama
going on in each.
Down in 454 Miss Nudge was
reading Conrad's Typhoon, given
her by the chief officer. She was
elated at the end of another gala
night. He had danced with her
three times and sat out a tango.
Every night was gala night on the
Marenia, particularly since she had
met Mr.. Charlton, the first officer.
She lowered her book and deliv-
cred herself to the full enchant-
ment of her thoughts of MI. Charl-
ton. Heavens! Miss Foster was
making whopee again. She had
learned making whopee" from
some of her gay companions, and
she liked the sound of it row. 1t

Clare was ducking through tn

dark head turned over her shoulder

at her heels. Jenny could see hi
back as he bent his head to g
under the curtain. His hand sho
out and caught at his companion
upper arm as he disappeared from
view. Jenny closed her eyes ans
clutched at her heart. She had no
believed it possible, in spite o.
Peters recent GOODNESS. Her fac
went white as she stood in the cor.
ridor, weakly clutching the hand
rail. The boat urched and her feet
moved mechanically along the limo
leum-covered corridor. She knew
that she must be walking like ar
absurd marionette. Now she had
arrived at her own stateroom'
She walked under the curtain and
hooked the door.
Jenny lay down on her bed and
covered her eyes with fingers that
fluttered nervously. Her throat
was swelling till she thought she
would choke. 1t couldn't be pos
sible-not now, 50 soon. They had
been together only two months.
She had run away fer a lifetime,
Believing that Peter loved her en-
Ugh to spare her all regret, and

a minute. But it isn't his fault. l

Dick was dancing with Patty
under pleated lanterns that swayed
like drunken sailors She looked
like a puff-ball in a cascade of
white chiffon. Hard to believe
that she was the thin young thing
who had slipped through the water

around.

"Why, what's going on?"
"Plenty, Patty. You don't sup

it looks on the promenade deck, do
you? You can't believe that the
