BOOK OF THE MOMENT By Jane Archer

patches of the settlers winter
wheat and rye. Judge Chamber
lain said as the rains continued
that God was clearly on the side
of the settlers. The settlers
wheat stood golden in the sun.
The heavy heads of the settlers
rye knocked off mems hats. And
the settlers corn could swallow
up horse and rider. ;.
But all those months he wrote
me firmly that grass was good
and beef high, that my B B mare
had a pinto colt, that the hands
and children sent me their best
and he remained my uncle, Jas.
B., I knew from other sources that
his favorite saddle horse, Pompey,
mad thrown and tangled himself
in hester barbed wire until he had
to be shot; that in sheltered ca
nadas his cowhands were digging
up the telltale buried horns and

beeves; and that a score of nest
ers were suing him in Judge
Chamberlain's court for the de-
struction by his cattle of their
crops and gardens"
And when he describes the
country he loves one can almost
see the vast miles of grass sway
ing in the wind, see the lights
cleaning through the windows of
the huge old ranch house, the
houses and fences of the nesters,
the wooden sidewalks and garish
saloons of that frontier town, see
the herds of fat cattle moving
over the great sea of grass"
And, like Conrad Richter, who
is a little sentimental, who has
taken his place as a writer of
western fiction, who has knowl-
edge of land and of people, who
is a good writer, one must feel a
little sad that that lusty pioneer
blood is quieted now, that from
tier settlements have become
staid towns-that the vast en-
pires of the cattlemen are neatly
quartered and that the great
Sea of Grass" is lost forever
Imperial Valley press., 1937-04-04

The background is more import
ant than the people. Lutte Cam
eron comes from st. Louis to the
ranch in the heart of the vast
Southwestern country to marry
Colonel Brewton, fiery and AFRO
CANT, most important man in the
section. Small, delicate, feminine,
reared in the comfort of the city,
she grows to hate the harsh land
of her husband. She bears him
two children. Her name is linked
with that of one Brice Chamber
lain, lawyer whose way of
thinking and whose purposes the
Colonel despises. When Lutte can
no longer bear living in this hated
but fascinating land, she leaves
her husband and her children.
The life of Brock, her younger
child, around whose paternity
there is centered a mystery, ends
in tragedy.
But this story of Lutte and
Colonel Brewton, of Jimmy and
Brock, the children, and of Brice
Chamberlain, are not so import
ant. The real conflict, the real in
terest, is the story of the land.
The book is the story of time
of change. 1t is a time of struggle
between the old and the new. The
old order changing, Brewton fights
fiercely against that change. Brice
Chamberlain struggles for it
for the nesters who are invading
the land won and enriched by the
strength and passion of men like
Brewton. Fighting the last battle
of his life against hopeless odds.
having no weapons to use, his old
violence of no avail, BreWton
must lose. In the end it Is Lutte
who is strong.
Mr.. Richter is too good a tech
nician to tell his story as one
of violence. He makes it more
powerful by only suggesting vio-
lence. 1t is there, but only threat
ened-a dark brooding shadow
over the vast land.
Conrad Richter knows words
and their power. He uses them
sparingly-but well. He makes
them sing They obey him. In a
short paragraph or two he de-
scribes the struggle in all it's
depth, all its implications, and
in those few sentences he draws
character:
More settlers were landing in
Salt Fork by steam and wagon
train. The settlers were crowd
ing the Las Cruces land office.
The settlers were blowing up the
rich brown prairie loan. The set
tiers were narrowing and plant
ing corn. From the sand hills
above Salt Fork the townspeople
could see the velvety green

and the changes that have taken
place in the country and the
method of life Times change, he
realizes, and ways of living
change, but human nature does
not. That is why, as he says, he
has tried to set down his stories
ION an underlying pattern of
these endless small authenticities
without which life would not be
life either then or today, and in
a style suggestive Of those times
that are gone but not dead in this
year of our Lord 1886"
A tender love story runs
through the little novel, but there
is something more to it than that.

eight bells rang out on the Mis-

smiling sailor ran up the gang

Lieutenant Burns and the Ex-
ecutive Officer looked up. The
smile faded from the bluejacket's

at the youth. Ice and fire were in

morning, however. Only those who
had gone ashore before the storm

What was the reason that

the Executive Officer asked, still
undecided in his own mind
whether or not to believe the
almost unbelievable story.
"Well, sir, you see, I was goin'

"Yes, yes" Commander Teal
prompted.
Suddenly the youth forgot all
discipline and broke into happy
smile.

Hospital at nine o'clock last
night. It's a boy and we, Mrs.
Martin and me, we named him
after you, SIR"
A flush spread over the Execu-

he was speechless. Then sternly:
Martin, you are hereby SEN

being absent without leave and
for disobedience of orders" He

That ten days extra duty won't

remarked.
Commander Teal scowled at the
Lieutenant.
THAT ten days extra duty

and with deep frown furrowed
on his face turned abruptly and
walked away down the deck.
Lieutenant Burns gazed seri-
ously after the Executive Officers

and then broke into a laugh.

INJURED half aloud. He's right!
Certainly not the name for a boy
with a daddy like young Martin.
The Exec. should have given him

played about the corners of his
eyes, as he walked toward the
deck office where his relief was
waiting.

He did not attend mess tonight,

about five o'clock by Lieutenant
Burns who was the officer of the
deck on watch at that time. Lieu
tenant Burns stated that Martin
seemed very much concerned
when he was informed that lib

had to get ashore"
Hum, that's odd. There's no
possible way he could have gone
ashore in this storm. No shore

No, sir. The ships boats have

the wind could have swept him
off the deck? What's the velocity
of the wind, Mr.. Tracy"
1T was blowing a fifty-mile
gale between five and six o'clock.
The decks were awash-still are.
1t is quite possible that one of
the big waves that broke over the
after deck just following eight
bells this afternoon swept him
over the side. In fact that's the
only explanation. sir"
We'll, there's nothing we can
do now in this storm. If this wind
doesn't blow itself out soon We'll
probably have to weigh anchor
and proceed out to sea. The an
chor's been dragging for nearly
four hours and we're having a

found, tell Mr.. Burns and some of

Yes, sir" Ensign Tracy sa-
luted and hurried down the COM

LetterWarns That DC.
Workers Must Go

The District Commissioners to.
day sent letters to both the Sen.
ate and House District Commit.
tees urging that all possible legis-
lative steps be instituted to insure
passage Of a joint resolution Of
other measure authorizing them to
borrow funds from the Federal
Treasury of elsewhere.
The letters pointed out that
there is sufficient money belong
ing to the District in the Treas
ury to meet operating expenses
until early August. When these
funds become exhausted, the let
ter stated, "the District will be
placed in the serious predicament
of being unable to meet its obli-
cations and pay the salaries of its
employees.
The letter continued:
at would be bad enough
should contractors and other
creditors of the District, who
have their obligations to meet,
have to be told that their bills
cannot be paid, as the District
has no funds with which to nay
its debts.

lection in September, until Con-

KING HURR|ES
DC. AIRPORT
BILL DRAFT
Utah Senator Says us.
Should Assume All
Building Cost

A bill to construct an airport
for Washington on the site chosen
by the District Airport Commits
sion at Camp Springs, Md, is be-
ing drawn up today in the office
Of Senator William H. King CD .
Utah, chairman of the Senate Dis
trict Committee.
The chairman already has de-
cided upon the most important
term of the measure and that Is
that the Federal Government shall
pay the entire cost of the conStruc'
ton.
Cost Up to the U. S.
Senate members, led by Senator
King, have long argued that the
fact that Washington is the Ma"
tons Capital overshadows the fact
of its existence as mere city and
therefore in large capital improve
mentS designed to enhance the
glory of this municipality as the
Capital of the Nation the cost
should be borne by the Federal
Government.
While the bill is in the process
of being put into legislative Ian
guage, the Utah Senator is not
blind to the deadlock that has oc-
Cured in the Senate as a result
of the debate on the Supreme
Court. Therefore, although he
will have the bill in readiness to
submit this week he has little
nope of being able to take the
floor for this purpose for some
time to come.
Passage in Doubt
In the meantime the talk on
the House side of the Capitol is
not such as would guarantee the
massage of the measure with the
Federal Government bearing all
the burden. In previous debate
on the House side it has often
been said that there is no reason
why the District should not bear
all the burden of the airport. 1t
is therefore evident that a fight
will be made between the two
houses of Congress over the pay
Inent for the project.
There also is an undercurrent
of dissatisfaction with the selec-
ton of the site and Representa-
tive Jack Nichols CD, Oklahoma.
and Senator Royal S. Copeland
CD). New York. may yet decide
to fight the bill on the grounds
that the site chosen is not the
best one that could have been
secured,

HACKERS Rs PRESS
STRIKE MOVE

Although Washington's 1000
cabs were operating as usual to-
day. word was being passed from
taxi to taxi that another effort
will be made to stage a city-wide
strike in protest against the COM
pulsory liability insurance bill now
pending in Congress.
The strike" called for yester-
day, after a spontaneous meeting
of about 500 night drivers early
in the day, failed to become wide
spread because, leaders asserted,
they failed to wait until the move
ment could be properly organized.
At l a. m. today another gather
ing of hackers, comprising indie
pendents as we'll as members of
such associations as the Diamond
and City Cab companies, voted to
run their cabs until a "walkout"
can be made general.
The men complain they cannot
pay 81 day for liability insur-
ance. as provided in a bill passed
by the House on Monday, unless
Congress also approves limitation
of cabs here. They say eventually
the cost of the insurance will fall
on individual "cabbieS," whether
or not independents.

Pilots, Fagg Meet
On Airport UItimatun1

Officials of the Airline Pilots AS.
ISOLATION which last week petit
toned the Bureau of Air Com
merce to restrict landings on
Washington Hoover Airport field,
today were to confer with Fred
Fagg, IT., Air Commerce head, in
an attempt to speed the posting
of the restrictions they asked.
David L. Behncke. president OF
the association, said his delega-
ton would seek permission from
Fagg to land planes temporarily
on Boiling Field. Mai. Gen. Oscar
Westover, chief of the Army Air
Corps, and in charge of Boiling
Field activities, said that he
would not permit commercial use
of the Army field unless ordered
to do so by the War Department.
Behncke, whose organization
gave the Neutrality-suspicious. Air.
port officials a 60-day ultimatum,
declared today:
"The use Of Boiling Field
would go far to ease the stu
alton from the pilots point of
view. A pilot, while he can pass
M washington now, must re-
member that in doing so he is
delaying mail and passengers
from three to four hours. The
pilot, as much as anyone else,
is responsible for the mainte.

MISSING BRIDE
IS SOUGHT

Where is Mrs. Ruth Miller. 49,
year-old bride?
That question was asked of
police today by the girls husband
and mother, who visited head
quarters to make a personal ap-
peal to authorities to search for
her.
Lloyd J. Miller. 10, meat sales
man of 4018 Grant st. N. E., told
detectives he married Ruth Nc

they had lived happily until July

bride disappeared without appar-

should be missing.
