scious as modern America. The American woman, you might say, struggled for generations to win recognition of her right to wear silk hose day in and day out, re- gardless of her station in life. Anyone who imagines that she is readily going to surrender that right, even for a noble and altru- istic ause, may well have another guess coming.
 All of which compels one to wonder just how effective these international boycotts-talked of so freely these days-are ever go- ing to be.
 There seems to be a school of thought which would substitute the boycott for war, which would make of it padded club by whi- oh an erring nation may be club bed bloodlessly back into good behavior. On paper it is all very simple. In actual practice il may be quite different.
 For we buy goods in interna- tional trade, not because we ad- mire the people who make them, but because We like to have the goods. It is going to take deep and strong emotion to make such boycotts successful. Is our desire to see Japan restrained, for in- stance, quite as sincere and uni versal as our wish to have the American woman continue to wear silk hose?
 Maybe it is. If so-watch out, Japan. But then again, maybe it isn't.-Exchange.
The Nome daily nugget., 1937-12-01
OBSTACLES IN THE WAY OF BOYCOTT PLAN

One of the most entertaining bits of business this winter ought to be the attempt to persuade the American woman to stop wearing silk stockings in order that the villainous Japanese may be foiled of their designs on China.
 From the shapely legs of Am erican womanhood to the muddy battlefields of Shanghai may seem like long jump. But there is a connection, spelled simply in the one word: boycott.
 The argument runs something like this.
 Japan is making war on China in plain violation of all existing treaties. If one nation can treat another nation so, no nation is safe from the threat of force; America, accordingly, must do her part to restrain the Japanese.
 But the Japanese don't restrain easily. They have, in fact, shrug- ged off all protests. And no Am erican cares to see his country go to war to make the protests effective. There remains, then, only the boycott. If all lovers of peace and goodwill will stop buy ing Japanese goods, the Japanese will see the error of their ways and the dove of peace will flutter once more over war-racked Chi na.
 Which brings us back to silk stockings.
 Japan's principal export to this country is silk. If we are going to boycott Japan, we have got to stop buying silk. And if we are going to stop buying silk,we have somehow go to persuade the Am erican woman to encaSe her neth- CT limbs in something besides silk stockings-in lisle, in rayon, or perhaps in the plain old-time cotton article.
 And that, when you stop to think about it, is going to be something of a job. Never has there been a country as leg-con-

jed, he gets an exemption of $25C0 a year outright. Then the governmen. allows him a furth- CT deduction of 10 pelcent of his net earned income which would be $ao). A1dei to the S250O ex- emption this leaves him subjel. to a tax on only 5000, at the rate of four per cent. The tax is $8. If the man has child he pays no tax at all,, since child brings $400 additional exemption.
 Yet along comes social security grants no exemptions, and takes $30. This is no argument against the social security tax, because its use for old age and unemploy ment protection has stood up un- der a heap of attack. But the talk ing of this $50 does figure in when the treasury or other tax minded parties begin calculating just how much additional taxes can be extracted wisely from the How income brackets"
 For long time it has been es- timated by skilled tax authori- ties that fat lot of revenue could be extracted from the in come brackets ranging from $2.- 900 to S5O,OOO now only paftially extracted.
 Since certain administration of ficials are known to be thinking seriously of reducing some of the taxes in the higher brackets, both on individual and corporate incomes, the next place to look for tax revanue to replace that temporarily lost in the highe brackets is in this S2,0O0 to $5O,- 900 group.
 Vein Now Tapped
 In pre-social security days, this flower bracket" was looked up on as only partially developed as a tax-mine. It had vast possibil- ities. But now the social secur- ity taxes have taken at least part of the good ore out of that vein.
 AS a partial measure of the ex- tent to which social security tax es have broadened the tax base, consider that year after year the number of individuals submitting 2 income tax returns stays at about 100000. In 1928 it was 4,O70,851. Of these, only 2,523, ,O63 actually paid taxes.
 On the other hand it is esti- mated that as many as 26,00O, 900 individuals are paying social se- curity taxes. And for all practi- cal purposes the money is going into the same treasury pot as the regular income taxes.

ISLAND of volcanic origin, land of geysers and hot springs, most sparsely populated country In Europe, Iceland is unique among nations.
 Its area is nearly equal to that of Kentucky, yet almost four. fifths of it is uninhabited and al- most uninhabitable. The land is 'reeless, has no railroads, and its 100000 persons reside entirely along the coastline. Despite these bleakest of physical features, how- ever, the chief occupation is farm- ing. Almost half of the people farm. Twenty thousand are oc- cupied in fisheries
 But cheated as it has been of rich, natural resources, Iceland nevertheless is progressive, singu-. larly productive. Its schools are. outstanding, government is strict, efficient. It has no deficit and no unemployment. Its level of good health is high. And Iceland has no navy, no army. nor fortifca-: tions. Its postal connections are maintained with Denmark by steamers which sail from Copen- hagen and call at Leith. Landing of the mail is portrayed on a 1925 issue, which also depicts the rugged character of the island.

answered.
 Ardath took of her small, snow- powdered hat and tossed 1t on a chair.
 "Please help me with, my coat" She moved close to him and Alan slipped the coat from her shoul- ders.
 What an amazing creature she was. Coming to a mans apart ment at this hour of night, and evidently expecting to remain awhile.
 q like this!" Ardath sank into a low chair near the fire. Say 1t really feels grand after that blizzard out there.'
 Stiffness slid from Alan in a swift surge of sympathy. These girls who battled for living had a rough time of it. No doubt of that.
 May I fix you something hotP" he asked.
 Her lips parted in wide, amused smile. T don't mind. I'd like a cocktail, if you have the makingS about"
 Alan had. He went back to hia small kitchen, which was nothing more than an efficiency arrange ment in an alcove, and mixed two drinks.
 This will fix me up," Ardath said, slipping her drink. Her eyes were searching his.
 In her lap was sheet of news- paper, closely folded. After a moment, she unfolded 1t and hand ed 1t to him.
 Alan took the paper. Jill's face smiled at him.
 Did you come here just to show me that?" he asked roughly, pain in his voice.
 No. I came earlier and the place was dark. Then I went to a show. When I came out the newsboys were crying out some thing about her party, and an- nouncing her engagement. I got a paper and brought it along"

 Alan was staring at her strange ly. If he could only transform Ardath with a brush. Paint her with a softness and gentleness she had never revealed. And, para doxically, paint Jill with a cruel deception showing in her smiling eyes.

 It was really all over. His lov' for Jill had changed to hate anc contempt. Tonight, Jill had pre- tended she still loved him in order to bring him to her announcement party. It had amused her to have a plodding painter. witness hel triumph and prestige. A lovely princess surrounded by her court And more than that, she had want ed to humble him fearfully be- cause he had despised her favors.
 Before he had left the Went worth house, he had heard people talking about Jill and the man shc would marry. Even he, compar- ative stranger in the city, knew the name of the society playboy.
 He let himself into his studio with shaking fingers. It was stil cozy and warm here, with emberS from the fire still glowing. Ye; unutterably lonely.
 He stood for a moment gazing down duly at a half-finished DOT trait on the easel. How cold and unappealing the lady on the canvas was, despite the lovely line of hel throat and the graceful curve of her shoulder. A woman of the imagination. What he needed was reality. He had been a victim oi illusions too long. ViSualizing Jill as some sort of lovely, laughing saint. And attributing all sorts oi devilish impulses to Ardath.
 There was no doubt that deer and dangerous fire glowing in Ar dath. But she was a saint com pared with Jill.
 He laughed mirthlesSly. Some day he would paint Ardath in a new light. And then he would dc a companion picture of Jill. as a sort of Delilah. He would like tc do 1t now.
 On an impulse, he crossed tC the desk and ran his hand into ore of the pigeon-holes. He stared down at the card and the tele. phone number. Ardath would come if he called her. Tonight she could lift him to feverish heights as an artist. even though she Jeff him cold as a man. He woulC have to love a woman to be stirred by her. Ana he would never lovt aDy woman again.
 He put the card back. wearily It was ridiculous - indicating thu disorder in his mind-to believ, Ardath could help him now. Tha had been only another illusion. H groaned.
 The doorbell shattered his un happy thoughts.

 A girl stood there, muffleC against the weather. Her turbaI was spattered by snow. The ful collar of her coat was turned uI close tabout her face.
 For a moment, his heart StooC still.
