lawyer now, one Of the wealthiest
men In the city, and he had long
since ceased to drive himself. The
younger men in the firm did the
actual work, and only occasionally
did Woodford himself appear in
court; and he met only the more
important clients who visited the
Offices.
Sometimes when Woodford was
gone, and tedious stretch Of work
had fatigued her, Julia would step
from her own little Office and try
one Of the afternoon programs.
Usually she searched out record
ing program, one that might in
clude a record by favorite orches-
ira. Then she would stand looking
out Of the window, dreamily hum
ming the tune - or, II she knew
the lyric, singing in a husky half
whisper.
On this particular day she had
read In the newspaper an adver-
tisement of a well-known food COM
pany, stating that at o'clock they
were sponsoring an air program
featuring famous orchestra.
Woodford had been out of the
building all morning; and, remem-
bering the advertisement, Julia
slipped to the radio and turned the
dials.
1t was an orchestra that had
won its reputation deservedly, and
Julia listened entranced. Her gaze
was out the window, but she saw
neither the milling throngs In the
street below, nor the dingy roof
top Of the building next door. It
was an orchestra whose insinuating
rhythm made her want to dance
and sing at once.
Presently they launched into one
Of her favorite modern tunes. Julia
began to sing 1t In a whisper-but
before the chorus was finished she
was singing 1t clearly, oblivious to
the world. ,s.r.ft. ~
The music stopped suddenly on a
low, plaintive note. Then, while
she still stood there, an all-too-fa-
miliar voice said, "very good. Miss
Craig" 1t was George Woodford.
Julia turned, blushing furiously
Tim sorry, Mr.. Woodford."
"Sorry?" he exclaimed, tossing
his hat and overcoat on one of the
big leather chairs. "Why should
anyone be sorry for singing? You
shouldn't apologize for that. Espe-
cially when you sing so beautifully

The Good Neighbor League swung
into an intensive four-week campaign
for President Roosevelt today, carrying
an assertion by Secretary of the In
terror Harold L. Ickes that there was
a community of interest between
Rev. Charles E. Coughlin and the
Republican party.
Opening in Columbus Auditorium
last night the drive of the league
headed by Dr. Stanley High, Secretary
Ickes asserted in a nationally broad
cast speech that Representative Will
liam Lemke, Union party presidential
candidate, supported by Father Cough
lin, was only a Coughlin-Landon
stooge"
Community of Interest.
He interpolated in his prepared
address this statement:
Il do not charge that Father
Coughlin sold out to the Republicans.
but there is a community Of interest
between him and the Republican
party. Coughlin knows that vote
for Lemke is a vote for Landon."
While the first National Good
Neighbor League Conference was
hearing succeeding speakers. another
Democratic voice was lifted in Dayton.

FOUR STATES HIGHWAY ROUTE

In message sent to all commun-
Hays of Ell Centro, secretary of the
International -Four States, Highway,
Hays states that the contract for
surfacing approximately 40 miles of
highway from point south of
Needles to Vidal junction, was let
Wednesday by the California High
way Commission to r. E. Hazard
and Sons of San Diego.
According to the terms of the
conract'', said Hays, the work of
resurfacing must be completed in
100 working days and the job will
start in 10 days from the signing
OF the contract. The road has al
ready been graded and is ready now
for hard surfacing"
This follows closely the decision
to build another 20 miles of road
in Nevada, extending from Boulder
City Junction southwark towards
Searchlight. The letting of these
two contracts provides for construc-
ton of half of the unfinished pave
ment on Highway U. S. SO, or the
Four States Highway. There are
only about so miles, therefore, of
