WAGE SYSTEM IS ALL

LUBBOCK, Texas-Dr. Paul Po- pence, Los Angeles oseiologist, re- gently criticised the existing system of paying bachelors and married men the same wage scale.
 Dr. Popencs proposed basic wage for all jobs with an additional allow ance of "ssy 20 per cent if he IS married, and 15 per cent for each dependent child. Such a selective family wage would provide equal standards of living for equal work and tLae IS what counts.

UNICAMERAL PROPOSAL
DEFEATED IN ARKANSAS
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. January 21.-
The Arkansas House of Representa-
tives late yesterday rejected a proposal
calling for creation of a unicameral
legislative system in this State.
Vote on the plan in the 100-mem-
ber House was Is ayes, 73 nays. A
similar proposal. rejected in 1888, drew
IS favorable votes.
Gov. Carl E. Bailey had urged that
the electorate be given the opportunity
to vote on the proposal.
The resolution, which proposed a
constitutional amendment be submit
ted in the 1888 elections to abolish
the 135-member General Assembly in
favor of a one-house body OF so law

HOUSE Committee
ON AVIATION URGED
Moves for Group to Have Charge
of Military, Naval and Com
mercial Clying,

Creation of a new standing COM
nittee of the House to have complete
Jurisdiction over all aviation-mili-
tary, naval and commercials sought
under a resolution introduced by Rep
resentative Mas. Republican. OF Min
nesotta. a World War aviator. The
proposed committee would be in the
interest of air-travel safety, and
would be composed of Is members,
the same as :he Military and Naval
Affairs Committees.
Representative Mas argues that
no committee in Congress now has
broad enough jurisdiction of aeronau-
tics properly to understand the COM
plete picture-"we must have inde-
pendent expert legislative considera-
tion of the air problm as whole,
he emphasized. 1T Is no wonder that
our legislation, civilian and military,
is haphazard, -ordinated and re-
suits in dangerous practices. Let us
recognize that aviation has grown up
and is entitled to full legislative con-
sideration."
Explaining the need for such legis-
lative action. Mas said:
The present wave OF commercial
aviation accidents is evidence of grow
ing pains in the development OF avia-
ton.
What aviation needs is govern
mental guidance and assistance, not
strangulation.
The governmental regulatory body
should be an independent commits
sion of aviation experts. This impor-
tant development should not be in
any routine department. There should
be an independent Federal Air Com
merce Commission to be to the air
transportation what the Interstate
Commerce Commission Is to rail
transportation"

Her eyes accused him as he enterea
the dining room and seated himself.
.sI should think that 1t would have
been finished twice over after f1Ve
years or So"
Prof. Bernard merely shrugged non
committally and began eating. They
had been over the question many
times before, and he knew too well
the futility of defending himself
against this very brusquely maternal
landlady of his. How could he eX-
plain to her the joy of an artist in his
work, the exquisite pleasure OF doing
in ones own time exactly what one
wished to do?
THE exactions of the class room
= duties were necessary. but in free
hours there was the time when
one could really live! Prof. Bernard
was poor. A heart ailment had neces-
STATED the doing out OF his slender
savings to physicians in recent years,
and now the only relaxation and
amusement he could afford was the
scholarly compilation Of his beloved
book.
BE sure to put on your raincoat
and overshoes," Mrs. Daniels admon-
ished. There is chill rain, and you
must walk nearly q mile to the coll
lege." The professor nodded absently,
busy with his own thoughts. When
the kindly landlady, some time later,
went into the reception hall to dust
she found the raincoat and over
shoes.
That afternoon the professor came
back to the lodging house with Pc
culiarly uncomfortable feeling In the
region Of his chest. AS usual, he went
slowly up the stairs to his lonely room
without bothering Mrs. Daniels, to
remain there engrossed in his solitary
work until the next morning.
The negligible supper he was in the
habit of preparing over the small elec-
trio burner was on his work table.
But somehow, this evening he felt no
appreciable hunger. Once he had
thumbed the latest pages of his man
uscript lovingly, revised them and
placed them carefully away with the
ever-growing pile of pages written
painstakingly in his scholarly script,
he forgot to eat.
X X X
A ND in the morning he passed his
meager breakfast with a disin-
terested notice. Mrs. Daniels noticed
his lack Of appetite, but made no COM
Nf n
age knew what he wanted.
When the professor returned from
his last class of the day, he sat down
at his table and stared worriedly out
the window at the pleasant suburban
street winding past the front Of the
house. For once, his work was for
gotten as he sat and wrestled with
twofold problem.

nate about to occur. And it had.
cat the meeting Of our directors
and trustees yesterday it was decided
to replace our instructors over go years
of age with younger men. If I'm not
mistaken, you are S." He remem-
bered how he had gotten up, scarce
needing the apologies Of his old friend.
The thought had struck him that
there was no pension provided.
TO TOP it all, his chest had been
persistently bothering him all day,
and he SUSPECTED that he would need
medical attention before long With
this and his monthly bill to be paid
to Mrs. Daniels. how was he to do it?
There was one solution.
The day he was dismissed he no
titled his landlady that henceforth
he would prepare his own meals and
was not to be disturbed. Then he
set to work, and the stock of finished
and revised manuscript grew hourly
as he steadily wrote, the scratch of
his much-nibbled pen the only sound
in his room. Two weeks later, with
almost his last dollar, he sent the COM
pleted result of his labors off to a pub
Usher who had several times before
printed his monographs on various
subjects. He breathed a silent prayer
and sat down to await the result in
grim silence.
Day by day his little store of money
dwindled, even though he subsisted by
the nsrrowest margin on raisins, rice,
anything nutritious and cheap. Mrs.
Daniels had finally pried the secret
of his difficulties out Of him and gen.
erously refused to think of his paying
for any rent until he had sold his
book. The postman came to recognize
the shrunken figure Of the old profess
sor while he was still q block away.
But still no answer came.
THEN one day . messenger arrived
with telegram, and Mrs. Daniels
hurried upstairs, certain that It con-
tanned good news for the professor.
It did, for . certainty, as she could
tell by the rapt expression on the pro-
fessor's face. Suddenly she was hor-
rified to see him start, slump Imply
to the floor. Terrified, she called q
physician who lived two doors away.
cts all over, Mrs. Daniels" the
doctor bluntly stated. "The poor fell
low died Of overexcitement of some
sort, and from malnutrition." Not
until then did she understand the pro-
fessor's excess of privation. She lifted
the telegram from the limp fingers.
It read: "Will you accept $500 and
royalties for your book, One Thousand
and One Ways to Make Money Wire
reply" A happy smile still fingered
upon the old mans face.

twizzler about Little Willie today.
That name reminds the 'ol professor
about a little poem which he learned
in high school chemistry class years
ago:
Little Willie was a soda clerk
But a soda clerk he is no more,
Cause what he thought was H20
Was H2S04."
Just skip by that-here's the twiz-
zler:
Little Willie had a savings bank
which held nickels. dimes and quar-
ters. He didn't know exactly how
many of each he had. but he knew
that he had $1,000, and there were
five more nickels than dimes and twice
as many quarters as nickels and dimes
together. How many Of each did he
have?
