B0RAH sASSAuS RID GAL GROUP REGENT SPEECH

WASHINGTON. May I5-Senator Borah. Republican Of Idaho. in 9 Sen- ate speech denouncing Fascist mili- tary tactics in EthioDia and Spain, said Fascism7 xas-a g. more dangerous threat to American democracy than Communism.
 The Idaho Senator. long student of foreign affairs and Senate spokes- man on the subject, attacksd both Fascism and Communism, asserting both were al war with democracy. But as his colleagues delayed their lunches 10 listen. he said:
 "I doubt very much if we are fully aware of the insidious, subtle effort being constantly put forth in this country by the advocates of that theory of government called Fascism.
 II has far more supporters n thls country than Communism and they are much more active and much more aCroit in the manner in which they are accomplishing their end. They work in wholly different ways and by widely different methods from Com munists.'
 h one of the few speeches he ever read to the Senate from manuscript, Borah lashed out al the military tao tics Of Fascism, citing particularly the recent bombing of Guernica in Spain.
 ''No language can describe the scene at Guernica. and Guernica was not a single instance, it was simply cul- rninztion of a long line of unspeak- able atrocities" the Senator asserted.

 "Yes," sine said dc.nurc'y and stepped back for Jenn.fer to get the complete effect.

A heavy belt of gold mesh drew the gown close to her small waist and accentuat- ed the 1.-the lines of her figure. A cape of white foxes rested lightly on her uncovered shoulders.

THE STORY so FAR

DAPHNE BRETT loved LARRY SMITH, architect Larry had rec peatedly asked her tO marry him. @ut Daphne had always refused, moE telling Larry, however, that she first wanted to lay aside suf- @eienE money to launch JENNT- FER, her young sister, on q hareeR.
 yemnifer had proved the selfish D2sEer from the start, defying Daphne at every turn. Finally Sennifer meets GORDON HERZ- BERG. theater producer, and ap- TparentEy finds her work.
 Then Daphne is sent on a two- aaOnths' sales tour across the continent. Before she leaves, Harry again asks her to marry hlIn, and again she refuses. So Harry says goOdby, assuming that Daphne cares more for her career than she does for his love.
 And then to make matters worse, Daphne finds on her re- turn that Larry Is dating Jenni- fer! Hurt, angry, terribly un- happy, Daphne reaches the crisis of her love. What is she to do? Suddenly she decides to contact Herberg.

CHAPTER XXI

The model in the froht of coral tulle parted the curtains and whirled through them with a dash of ecstacy.
 The salesgirl turned to Daphne. ''Vionnet's distinction" Has verve, don't you think?" |. Southern mood" An ephe- neral quality"
 Daphne was trying to picture herself in gown like this. Res olutely she turned about in her chair SO that she could no longer see herself in the long mirror that faced her. Just as long as she was conscious of t he reflection that gave her back a picture of herself in her tailored woolen coat, her sturdy little boots, her soft felt hat and her fact that looked strangely wooden and dead these days, she couldn't somehow see any of these glamorous frocks on herself.
 And she had to have one. Her party was only two days of. It was to be two days before Christ mas.
 After the coral tulle, there was a matter of black taffeta and tor quoise velvet. Then there was a gay tulle and a silver lame. Daphne watched their entrance and exit with much interest but when it was over she was right back where she had begun.
 Look here" she said to the saiesgirl. You've got to help me I simply can't make a selection. Be- sides you know more about these things than I do. What one do you think is best for me?"
 The salesgirl studied Daphne closely. You've a lovely figure and you would wear any one of these. May I ask, what is the occasion? What do you want? I mean what mood do you wish to express2"
 Daphne was fascinated with this last question. What mood, indeed!
 "The occaion is party at The FlGmingo Club she said. And the mood? Well, I should say was striving for the Irresistible Woman effect"
 T see," the girl went on wisely. "And have the dress! The price is $225. Would you care to go as high as that?"
 If I can get the effect" Daphne answered firmly.
 "Claudette,". the girl said to a model of the same size and color ing as Daphne, show Miss Brett the hibiscus gown"
 Daphne forgot he girl in the mirror when the model came back. Would look like that?" she appealed.
 You certainly would! Suppose you try 1t on?"
 Daphne tried it on and reached for her checkbook.
 She hadn't a qualm when she wrote the newest figure in her bal- ance. Writing checks wasn't new to her this week.
 The agency had given her short holiday after her trip and respite from the amount of work

DRIDE flushed the face of Sultan

DRIDE flushed the face of Sultan 4 Ismail of Kelantan, in the Straits Settlements, in 1911, when he saw the new stamps that his country for the first time could call it's own. Great Britain had taken over administration of this Malay state in 1909, and had is- sued a stamp on which appeared Kelantan's symbols of government.
 Soon, however, pride turned to anger and jealousy, when Sultan Ismail discovered that Trengannu, another non-federated Malay state turned over from Siamese to Britt ish administration, sported the picture of its sultan on it's new stamps. Sultan Ismail wanted to see his own portrait on Kelantan's stamp, as well, and so he offered to buy up the entire issue of the symbolic stamps, provided Great Britain produced new postage bearing the sultan's portrait.
 The new mother country failed to heed his requests, and the stamps of Kelantan continued in

PARAMOUNT FAILS

Management Adjourns Efforts
to Increase Stock After
Brief Meeting.
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 24.-The man.
agement of Paramount Pictures. Inc.
adjourned today its efforts to obtain
authorization to increase the common
stock from 100000 to 5000 900
shares.
The meeting-contrary to the lonp
and bitter session of a week ago-was
brief. Barney Balaban, president, re-
ported the Management Proxy Com
mittee held more than 81 per cent of
the votes in favor of the increase
but lacked the necessary 662a per
cent.
There were less than per cent OF
the votes expressed against the au-
thoriZation.
Balaban explained the manage
ment, although confident the neces-
sary vote could be obtained shortly,
deemed it wiser to defer to the opin
ion OF many stockholders" who have
urged postponement of the plan until
specific purposes for the additional
stock could be determined. The pur-
pose. 1t was pointed out, "has been
merely for future corporate expansion
and a reduction Of debt"
Balaban said the subject probably
would not be brought up until the
next annual meeting.
