CHAPTER XIV

CHAPTER AV
To live and move amidst beauty!
To have such a wonderful setting |!
These thoughts came to her as
she walked with Mrs. Vandaveer
into the Louis XVIII drawing room
with its genuine antiques.
The butler had already set out
the tea things and the priceless
old French silver on a spindle
legged table that was close to a
log fire, for the spring day had
turned chilly.
The owner Of the house was
there. Mrs. Vandaveer presented
Luana to her husband.
She thought: what a distin-
guished-looking man! But he
looks terribly tired!" She thought
of the Colonel. The face was
deeply lined and seemed to SAG
just as her Step-father's had
sagged that terrible day in the
prison at San Diego.
Mr.. Vandaveer, however. was
much handSomer than her step
father.
Luana sat on an uncomfortable
chair that she was perfectly sure
had cost at least a thousand dol
lars.
She thought of Yvonne's funny
little French livingroom. What a
contrast this was.
Yvonne would love to hear
about this house, this room.
Yvonne was simply avid for Cos
sip.
Ramon arrived. He kissed the
hand Of his hostess, bowed Ella
gantly from the waistline to Mr..
Vandaveer, gave less unctuous
bow to Luana.
"Horrid little bea ST." she
thought. So obviously out for
what he could get! So evidently a
gigolo!

nervous. Truth to tell, there was q
fair chance of an extremely at
tractive man being at the opening
of the new bridge club this after
noon, since he had a half share
in it, she understood. She wanted
to cultivate this man and gradu-
ally ease Ramon out of the
picture. Since he was much
sought after, it was quite in the
cards that he might not remain
long at the opening. It was al
most five-thirty now. Would Joel
be annoyed were she to depart
with Ramon, leaving Lua n a
Waters to pour tea for him?
Joel was being pleasant to the
girl. Better strike now.
Darling, it's too tiresome. but

glanced shyly at Lorraine's hus-
hand.

mask. Most certainly keep your

Luana thought whimsically:

Ethiopian Guerilla Warfare
Harries Italian C0nquerors

Washington, d. G. (ILNS)- The
expected guerilla warfare in Abys-
sinia was evidently well under way
before the Fascist censorship allowed
any news of it to come out. Marshal
Graziani, viceroy of Ethiopia, under
the Italian regime, had ordered the
demobilizaton of 100000 Black Shirts
to show how complete the conquest
was. Within two days, he had to
countermand this order and put his
forces on war footing again. ,
Twenty Italian aviators were am
bushed and killed at Jimma, and there
have been disturbances along the line
of the lone railroad leading to Adds
Ababa. This much is shown in the
dispatches which the censorship has
passed. But to bring 100000 mer
back under arms is sure sign oil
far more serious troubles than any.

The board paid high tribute to the
president for his efforts to introduce

and give them expression in social and
labor legislation vital to the interest
of the workers. 1t declared that la
Dor owes to President Roosevelt a
debt of gratitude for the hopes and
opportunities his administration has
opened to wage earners.

SUPREME COURT
Will Change Attitude, Wal
lace Thinks

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-Henry
A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture,
is out with a new book called Whose
Constitution ?" with "An Inquiry into
the General Welfare" as subtitle.
Mr.. Wallace would rather see the SUI
preme court change its methods of
interpreting the constitution that go
to the trouble of a constitutional
amendment. He believes that the
court will see the light.
81 hold to this belief for two rea-
sons" he writes. First, because the
court has frequently changed its mind
in the past; second, because there
will be no acceptable alternative be
fore it.
"In at least 60 cases the supreme
court has definitely overruled its own
previous decision or decisions. In
four additional cases the minority
pointed out that the majority opinion
had the effect of overruling previous
decisions.
in IA cases the court, while not
definitely overruling previous de-
cision, so qualified the principle OF
the prior case that it in fact was over.
ruled. And in cases too numerous tc
mention the court has handed dowr
decisions which can be reconciled witt
earlier decisions only by the exercise
of a kind of involved legal reasoning
which to the modern scientific mine
seems an echo from the Middle
! Ages

Clio REFUSES
To Answer Dual Unionism
Charges

Washington, D. C. (ILNS)-The
committee for industrial organization,
composed of twelve unions, has re-
fused to appear before the executive
council Of the American Federation of
Labor to answer charges of dual un-
ionism made by John P. Frey, presi-
dent of the A. F. of l.. metal trades
department. The committee was re-
Gently summoned by the executive
council to appear before it on Au-
gust 8.
!! In letter to President Green, of
the A. F. of L., John L. Lewis, chair
man of the CIO, said that the CIO
declines to submit to the jurisdiction
of the executive council and charged
that the proposed hearing was wholly
unwarranted by the constitution of the
A. F. of L."
| "The A. F. of L. constitution"
Chairman Lewis further said, "pro-
vides that expulsion of an affiliated
national or internationl labor union
l
can only take place at regular A. F.
of L. convention and upon two-thirds
roll call vote of the delegates. Sus-
pension would disqualify the unions
affected from having any delegate
representation in the convention, and
in this case is intended to have the
effect of expulsion. The right to either
!expel or suspend is declared in the
! constitution to be in the American
Federation of Labor, and its action
must be taken in its regular conven-
ton
The trial you threaten is plainly
intended to forestall action of the con-
vention and foreclose its judgment in
a matter over which it alone has juris-
diction."
In reply to the letter, President
Green said the statement was accept
ed as a refusal to meet with the ex-
ecutive council on August and
added:
'"The right and power of the ex-
ecutive council to act in the premises
and to deal with an emergency such as
never before existed with the Fedora
tion of Labor, will be passed upon and
determined by the executive council
before any official decision is rem
dered."
