EDGE PROPOSES
ANTI-ROOSEvELT
RALLY IN SPRING
Would Invite All Foes
of New Deal

INSD. A national "anti.
Roosevelt" convention to be held
next spring composed Of elements
that oppose the New Deal-with'
out regard to party-was proposed
today by former Senator Walter
E. Edge, of New Jersey, a one-time
influential figure in Republican
quarters,
Edge advanced his idea as a
substitute for the purely RepubIl-
can convention, which former
President Hoover has been advo-
eating, and which is opposed by
Governor ALI M. Landon, the 1886
standard bearer, Senator Borah
of Idaho, and other Republican
elements.
EXPLAINS PLAN
In a letter to Daniel E. Pome-
roy, national committeeman for
New Jersey, Edge declared he felt
the projected conference was a
worthwhile undertaking, but ex-
pressed the belief it should not be
confined to Republicans. Let all
those who are opposed to the New
Deal and Roosevelt dictatorship"
he said, be assembled under the
same tent.
He suggested that from so to rs
anti-New Dealers among the Demo
Gratis also be invited. He suggested
no names, but obviously his plan
would include outstanding Demo
Gratis who bolted President Roose.
welt in 1886, such as AL Smith,
John W. Davis, former Senator
James A. Reed of Missouri, and
others.
PRINCIPLES LISTED
The Republican National Com.
mittee, Edge proposed, should
prepare the call for the conven-
tion and added:
In my judgment it should
recite only two or three funda-
mental principles as inspiring
the calling of the convention.
These principles should be as
non-controversial as possible
and could safely include a de-
mand for a revised financial
and spending policy; a demand

Senator William E. Borah (R) OF
Idaho today mildly criticized the
proposed G. o. P. meeting pro-
posed by former President Herbert

Referring to Mr.. Hoover and

opposite the window heavy cur

was Colonel Lutman. Irstinctive-

CHAPTER SO

JACQUELINE turned again to-
ward Lutman's desk, laid a hand
against the drawer, and was about
to close it when she paused and
stopped, peering at the typewriter
words on the long, folded paper
that had caught her eye. Copy
of the last will and testament of
Alan Redfern," she read; and the
next moment she had whipped the
document out of the drawer and
was staring at it with a puzzled
frown.
Locked in the bathroom Lutman
raped on the door again, and his
voice called her name. But she
took no notice; she was thinking
furiously, trying to understand the
exact significance of her discovery.
If this was a copy Of her uncle
Alan Redfern's will, did that mean
that he was dead? If so. how was
it that neither she nor her mother
had heard of it? That, at any
rate, would explain why his usual
monthly allowance to her mother
had not arrived last month. And
if he were dead, what on earth was
this copy Of his will doing in the
drawer of Colonel Lutman'S desk?
Where did Colonel Lutnan come
into it? AS far as she was aware,
he had never heard Of her Uncle
Alan.
She unfolded the document and
began to read, glimpsing here and
there a clear-cut idea in the fog of
legal phraseology:
Allan Redeem :. New York
80. last will and testament -.
to my niece Jacqueline Mary
Smith. In the event -.
being herself deceased the
whole of my estate =. Millicent
Agnes Maud Smith. -"
Jacqueline read on, but the
words swan before her eyes and
carried no clear message to her
brain. One million and five hun
Idred thousand dollars-hers! And
suddenly understanding swooped
into her mind. The deed that she
had signed, the scheme to marry
her to Jim Asson, Colonel Lut-
lman's anxiety that the marriage
should take place, his attempt,
when she had refused to marry
Jim, to marry her himself, his
Willingness to cash that check for
her mother, Miss Harringay's
revelations about Jin's past
every incident fitted in perfectly
and convinced her that at last, in
this document that she had found
in Colonel Lutman's desk, she had
discovered the key to the whole
mystery. And the very fact that
the Colonel was in possession Of a
copy of the will added the last
overwhelming proof. A million and
a half dollars she had signed
that deed which, if she had gone
Through with the marriage, would
have handed over every penny of
it to Jim Asson! No wonder he
had been willing to make her
mother an allowance

once again, my dear, wouldn't be

The Colonel gave a shrug.
"You may have to revise your
opinion, Jacqueline," he said. I'm
sorry, my dear, to shatter your
illusion, but if Charles is the hon.
orable man you believe him to be,
why didn't he tell you about your
uncle, Alan Redfern? Why did he
induce you to sign that deed which
would have handed your entire for
tune over to young Jim Asson?
Why?"
"I don't know" interrupted the
girl. II don't pretend to know.
Charles, perhaps, knew nothing
about the will"

Root pruning of roses

Root pruning of roses
THE ROOTS, as well as the tops
of rose bushes, require pruning at
planting time. After pruning the
tops of a rose bush before planting,
check the roots. It is much better
to trim off extra long roots than
to coil them around in the planting
hole.
This Graph shows how to
trim the roots Of rose bush. Make
the cut with a sharp knife, as
shears tend to crush the roots.
One of the objects of root prun-

 Groups Here Cut
 Announcement of the proposed cut was made in Waterbury today by William E. Kennedy, regional en- gineer. He said the cut would affect ali groups of the 727 WPA workers here, white collar, women and con- struction personnel.
 The list of those to be dropped will originate at the New Haven of- flee. however, and MT. Kennedy said he has no part in determining the dismisSals.
 The cut will be in addition to the recent dropping of scores of mrisi- clans from the recreation depart ment's personnel which has resulted in the dismissal of 24 members of the 34 membership of the Water bury WPA band.
 The band will continue to func- ton as such through Monday, how ever, and will play tonight at Mil Plain near Frost road. The final concert, so far as now is known, will be at Town Plot Monday night.
