THIS WEEK

John Trench would have brilliant career"
AS Jane was slipping her demi-tosse, a page
boy laid note on the table.
She read when you've finished, will you
come and dance with me? I'm waiting at the
door of the lounge. John Trench"
Jane finished her coffee, managed a few
pleasant words, and wandered out of the room
to discover what an economist knew about
dancing. The first thing she realized was that
John Trench was taller than he looked - al
most as tall as Abraham Lincoln she decided,
and rather like him, too. but handsomer. He
didn't dance bit like an economist.
She looked up at him. Il didn't know YOU
went in for this
Il don't really like to dance" he said, "but
had to lure you out I've big idea to discuss
with you
She sighed "All right - but it seems
pity"
He laughed. well dance together often
enough if my idea clicks"
Where can we TALK" said Jane.
They plowed into the wind, up the narrow
stairway to the top deck and dropped, breath
less, into two waiting chairs. He tucked a
rug around her ''COmfortable1" he asked.
"Divinely." breathed Jane. relaxed, and
glowing.
This idea of mine" he said "It's pretty
cockeyed but you can blame yourself You
said the cure for your state of mind would be
to pull big, fine public jilt of your own. Well,
can make that possible"
"How?" gasped Jane
1--WE could announce our engagement" he
said slowly, land you could chuck me- with
sound and music, after couple of weeks"
There was no word from Jane He spoke
again. II told you it was cockeyed, but you
suggested it - unconsciously, when you asked
me how I'd like to be Tilted"
Jane found her voice, but why y what
makes you want to do this for me? You hardly
know me-"
Evening star., 1936-06-28

Eccentric - I'm that way. | like YOU for
being human. If it's going to help you any,
I'm yours to jilt! At the moment. I'm bask-
ing in popular favor and you can show your
public you have minor celebrity at your
feet It'll make you seem so independent when
you pull your big. fine jilt"
Jane began. Il couldn't " Her voice
broke. Damn, can't find my bag ="
Take this" he said, and thrust a large
handkerchief into her hand. To James horror,
her shoulders began to heave, her breath
came in little catches. and tears kept right
on rolling. She kicked off the steamer rug and
ran over against friendly smokestack. The
tears came faster. She felt an arm around her
shoulders. Her face was turned towards a white
shirt-front, while an awkward hand stroked
her hair
She leaned against the stiff bosom of the
shirt. Its harshness was comforting. The arm
across her shoulders, warm and strong, tight
ened protectively Slowly her sobs trailed off
into silence. She looked up at him. He was
smiling but his eyes were grave.
I'm faker," she said. THAT book of yours
i never read it."
Joih eHuCleu' very feW people did, Well,
let's go down and have another dance. If my
plan is objectionable, forget it."
But it's not - it's too incredibly sweet"
Jane hesitated, then met his eyes squarely.
Mr. Trench, why do you want to do this?
There's nothing in it for you"
There's your friendship. hope - and the
NICE SNUG feeling that I've helped you out of a
tight place."
II couldn't do it, The publicity would
hurt YOU"
1T would roll off me like the proverbial
water. Listen, Jane Bassett, if that's your
only objection. you may consider yourself
engaged
But Mr.. Trench -"
John, to you. And we'll have no more
argument tonight. Jane. I'm going to see

you safely to your room. A good sleep won't
do you any harm"
Next morning. when Jane had passed through
quarantine inspection, she climbed to the
boat deck, opened the wrinkled radiogram she
was clutching and read it for the sixth time.
There was so little there, only: Welcome
home - Alan" He had radioed, although she
had never expected to hear from him again.
1t was his olive branch.
She was thinking of John Trench and his
extravagant suggestion proffered with such
nonchalance when she heard his voice "Jane!'
His head and shoulders appeared at the top
of the companionway. "Tve been combing the
ship for you. Come on down. They're waiting"
Who's waiting1" asked Jane absently,
thinking that he had never looked so vital
Come along" he replied, tucking her arm
in his. They're growing restive.'
'On the deck below. Jane saw a group of
men who had evidently come aboard from the
cutter. who are they?" she asked.
John grasped her arm firmly. They're
reporters waiting to meet the future Mrs.
Trench"
Jane gasped, ''But told you couldn't ="

greeted them with some very fine Scotch.
They were in mood to appreciate anybody's
fiancee and do right by her. They took pictures
of Jane looking up adoringly at John. They
took pictures of John looking adoringly down
at Jane. They took pictures of John and Jane
looking adoringly at each other Then they
departed to drink some more very fine Scotch.
Jane looked at John II think we're both
insane"
Don't think" he said This is my party.
Look! The gangplank's down."
Only sparse crowd had assembled to watch
the docking of the big liner. Jane passed
through the hands of the customs men in
record time. Her bags were tumbled into a
taxicab before John Trench and his numerous
fellows, under the letter T. were half through
their examination.

Street. Jane opened telegram which the
janitor had handed her.

away. Then she stuck

HIGH COURT UPHOLDS
THE AAA INJUNCTIONS
Continued from page one)

Continued from page one)
In this opinion, six of the iurists
held that the Bankhead law was
merely another club which the
government could use to force
cotton farmers to cooperate in its
crop reduction program.
With the Bankhead act, if it is
killed, will go the Warren potato
law, the Kerr-Smith tobacco law
and other measures which author
ize use of the federal taxing pow
er to compel compliance to the
governments will. In this group,
some officials felt today, falls the
Guffey act which creates a little
NRA for the bituminous industry.
An adverse decision on the
Bankhead act would not coEstl-
tute a major New Deal defeat.
The administration reluctantly &C
copied it, the potato and tobacco
laws upon the insistence of farm
leaders in congress.
Decisions in the cases of the
rice millers and the IVA are con-
sidered of equal Importance. The
IVA is the last of the three alpha
betical agencies which formed the
basis of the New Deal, The NRA
was launched to bring stability to
industry, increase production, in
crease employment and raise
wages. II was beheaded bv the
coult.
= The AAA was designed to III
crease far mincome, reduce agri-
cultural SURPRISES and bring to
tillers of the soil the same bene-
fits as NRA would bring to in
dustry. It was felled by the court.
Ostensibly the IVA project
one of the worlds largest develop.
ment experiments-was Initiated
to improve navigation, combat soil
erosion and improve flood control
along the Tennessee river. Ac"
tually, however, critics claim it is
the opening wedge to Nationalist
ton of the power industry, Mr..
Roosevelt repeatedly has said that
one. of the goals of IVA was to
determine a "yardstiek" for the
cost of electrical energy to con-
sumerS. -
The challenge of the act reach
ed the supreme court, through a
suit brought by minority stock
holders of the Alabama Power &
Light company which sought to
set aside a contract whereby the
utility company sold some of its
transmission lines to iva. The
late district Judge William /.
Grubb of Alabama, held the IVA
act unconstitutional. His decision
was reversed by the court of ap-
peals in New Orleans.
Although. the rice millers suit
involves only 100000 directly,
it carries potentialities which may
reach the federal budget. In de-
Gliding the case of the rice millers,
the court is expected to guide fu-
ture attempts to collect more than
