Take care of the bill, Jim,"
she said. Jim looked a little
startled as Karen's wet ostrich
trimmed foot came out of the cab.
Eyes, madam"
"Give him a good tip, JIM"
Karen added uncomfortably as
she realized Jim was trying not
to see she was wearing a mans
fur-lined overcoat.
II must be a sight," Karen
thought, as she hurried through
the lobby.
The elevator boy bowed: Good
evening, Miss Mallory"
Karen had the grace to blush
as he pretended he did not note
her startling appearance. They'll
think I just broke jail" Karen
giggled to herself, then cringed as
more people got into the elevator
eyeing her with polite stares. She
held her head high, clutched her
fathers coat about her.
One of the young men made
some comment, but she did not
turn her head nor indicate that
she had heard. But she had to
ride to the top floor to Calls pent-
house. Would the car never get
there? The young man went with
her to the top, watched her leave
with much amusement.
Ritchasan, Calls little maid,
was delighted to see Karen and
bowed very low. "Come!"
"No, Ritchasan, in Miss Calls
dressing room"
They wait long time for you,
Miss Karen"
She tried to take Karen's coat
but the girl held on tight as she
marched helplesSly into the draw
ing room by the determined maid
"Karen!" Everybody rushed for
ward.
Heavens, what a get-up!" Cal
cried. "Are you running away
from jail?"
Ping was there and delighted to
see her. II knew you'd make it!
I was sure when L called and
found you'd flown the coop! So ]
came on here. Thought you'd
make for Gail" He kissed her.
MORE SENSATIONS
Karen's costume was Sensa
tion. Everybody was delighted
with the idea. Ping took off hel
slippers, and Ritchasan brought
her a pair of Calls dry ones.
I'm looking for clothing you car
wear, darling" Gail said, as Rit
chasan brought the shoes
There's one dress that's always
been too tight for me, should be
just about right for you-"
Shall I call your father?" Ping
was a little worried.
"No, Ping, he'd come over here
and make a scene. I want a gcoG
time tonight-I'll make my peace
with him tomorrow"
Just at this moment Mrs. Nal
lory, over on Fifth Avenue, hac
persuaded her husband to go of
to dinner with her.
Get Mr.. Mallory's coat, Fred
I'm ready"
There was a long wait. "It'.
gone, sir" Fred came back, hi
face white. That coat, sable lined
was Mallory's pet.
Then that little wretch wore
that" Mrs. Mallory spoke with
out thinking, relief in her voice
At least, the child would not have
pneumonia by her foolishness!
Mallory, so furious he could not
speak, just stared at his wife
Then suddenly they both smiled.
She's impossible. Jay! But il
is funny!" Mrs. Mallory cried, eE
she wiped tears of laughter from
her eyes.
II give up!" Mallory chuckled
Get me another coat. Fred"
At this same moment, the young
man on the elevator who hac
seemed so interested in Karen was
telephoning a friend. Il just saw
Karen Mallory over on Beekmar
Place in negligee and a mans FUR
lined overcoat." There was 6
pause.

seen her lots of times. I tell yor

GOLD TO BUY
CHINESE SILVER
By ERIC FRIEDHEIM

The United States today moved
forward in its drive toward world
wide monetary stability by joining
with China in a new financial
pact and by laying the foundation
for economic agreements with
Latin-America.
Less than a fortnight after an
nouncing it would remain in the
tri-partite sterilization accord
with Great Britain and France,
the Administration formed an
agreement with China by which
the two nations will exchange
gold and silver.
Under the new Sino-American
pact, the United States will sell
China substantial amounts Of gold.
The metal will be drawn from the
Treasury'S inactive gold stock
which now amounts to more than
$1,14O,000, 900.
To pay for the gold, China, in
turn, will sell the United States
substantial quantities of silver.
The Treasury will pay China the
current world silver price which
has been averaging a little less
than Is cents per ounce.
Authority for the exchange Of
metal derives from the silver pur-
chase act under which the Treas
ury is directed to acquire an
amount Of silver that is equal in
value to one.third Of the Govern
ment,s gold.

The stock market slipped irregu-

were limited to two points and
most recessions were only frac-

Grains reacted further, both
here and in Canada, and cotton
lost so cents q bale. Bonds eased
moderately but governments were
relatively firm.
Steels. rails, coppers, and motors
were weak. with utilities, foods,
and q few specialties bucking the
trend. ChrySler was off more than

ped fractionally. U. s. Steel lost
nearly a point, closely followed by

where it is not available for immediate use
Thus the gold imports do not add to bank reserves and the

San Antonio (Tex.) reader asks: wouldn't an open
gold market fix the price of gold and consequently the num-
Der of grains of gold the dollar thus giving standard
of value?'
Answer-No. A so-caed free gold market would mean
that individuals could buy and sell gold and that the number
Of grains of gold dollar would buy could be known at any
time But it would definite standard. In fact
England today has free gold Market but it is not on the
gold standard.
The trouble is that the price of gold might be $35 an
year and $25 the next 1t might vary widely
from day to day Thus gold could not be used standard
for deferred payments instrument Of credit trans
actions
An open gold market does fix the number Of grains
of gold in the dollar. The fact is that the price of gold
varies in free gold markets according to the fluctuations
of Government credit which the purchasing OF
the dollar depends when off the gold standard
Los Angeles reader wants to know, What is the total
amount of gold in the world and how much does each ma
ton have?'
Answer-Tn April 1887 the total gold of the
central banks of 50 nations amounted to
about O5GO0OOOO Ito into ounces divide by $35

valued in terms of gold. Therefore, gold has
poured into the country, increasing bank re-
serves and threatening quick monetary in
flation.
AS one means of offsetting these tendencies,
the sterilization" policy was adopted to pre-
vent gold imports from causing increased
bank reserves.
Formerly, the Government paid for gold by
Treasury checks and issued Gold Certificates
to the Reserve Banks to cover the payments.

/ thus was nullified, but the persistent
Marshall was not through.
Two missionaries from New England
refused to obey one of the Indian
statutes and took their case to the
Supreme Court. 1t upheld the mis-
sionaries.
That provoked the fiery Jackson
quip, whose authenticity never has
been proved.
John Marshall has made his
decision, now let him enforce it."
The decision was not enforced, and
jackson won again.
Washington society Of the jack
sonian era continued to flock to the
Supreme Court to observe the brilliant
proceedings.
Fluff and French regalia adorned
the smiling ladies who sat on benches
against the wall, much like row Of
school children.
Courts Prestige Mounts.
They heard Clay and Webster OF
senatorial fame argue the great issues
of the day-for fees running as high
as $4,000. The Supreme Courts i'm
portance was mounting, but still 1t
held forth in the dingy basement room
the Senate had allowed 1t to use from
the beginning.
Marshall continued to preside in
grave silence. but friends and foes
alike saw his rapidly approaching
feebleness.
In 1884 Justice William johnson
died in his $50 year, and Jackson
lost no time in putting one of his
outspoken admirers in the court
James M. Wayne Of Savannah, Ga.
Then the deaf Justice Gabriel Du-
vail resigned at the age of 80.
Jackson Wins.
jackson Immediately sent up the
nomination of his chief adviser, Roger
B. Taney. But Taney had aroused
the ire of the Senate when he wrote
the Jacksonian veto Of the bank act,
and his nomination was laid aside
In 1885 Marshall passed away in
his 80th year, and Jackson sent
Taney's name again to the Senate
for confirmation. Two months Of
bitter debate followed, but the Presi-
dent finally won, and Taney took his
place on the Supreme Court.

right to nominate . Chief Justice.

Hoover asserted
The speaker condemned the Presi-
dents message to Congress as 'in-
genious, but utterly lacking in frank
ness and sincerity"
Recounting the various changes
which have been made IN the set-up
of the Supreme Court since its incep-
tion,. Hoover said none provided .
precedent or justification for the pres.
ent proposed change, which he charac.
terized as contrary to the letter and
spirit Of. fair play in America"
He charged that the President
wants to put these men of the bench
because he doesn't like the way they
decide cases."
Reviewing the history of the pas
sage of the last six amendments,
Hoover concluded that the process Of
amendment is speedy enough for all
practical needs, and ended his lengthy
attack by calling four Witnesses
George Washington, John Marshall,
Alexander Hamilton and Woodrow
Wilson-to protest against changing
the Constitution except by amend
ment.
Leo p. Harlow, q Virginia Demo-
crat, denied that the Supreme Court
docket Is crowded; said that an in.

NOUS liberal of American history,
Haunting his creed in the face OF CHIEF
Justice John Marshall.
The Fight Begins.
Rooseveltian words against the ST.
preme Court never have exceeded -
mysteriously belligerent tone.
Not so in the nineteenth century
when the country was young and lusty.
When Jackson began his political
career the Supreme Court was being
called all sorts Of names.
But Marshall and Jackson entered
upon their struggle with careful spar
ring. Marshall was getting old and
he had painful kidney stone. Doubt
less the mellow evenings and the Ma
deira wine in "the most exclusive club
the world has ever known" had some
thing to do with this.
The club was the Supreme Court
boarding house" - the Washington
home of all the justices. Until 1845
they lived together and discussed their
cases, and on their boarding house
table was particularly fine brand
of Madeira wine.
The State Of Georgia supplied the
first heavy blow at the Marshall court
through its famous Cherokee Indian
statutes, dividing up Indian lands
despite a Federal treaty.
Under them Indian George Tassel
was sentenced to death for a murder.
and Marshall ordered Georgia to de-
fend its laws before the Supreme Court.
Georgia executed Tassel before the
appeal could be heard.

themselves to carry on the work of

fight for humanitarian principles and
equal rights.

II hope We will pledge ourselves to
continue the work she began and
leave no part of it undone," Mrs.
Honeyman declared.
Expressing similar thought, Sena-
tor Pepper said:
The task for which she fought Is
not yet perfectly accomplished. The
cause Of civil rights you will pursue
persistently. But I know you are
conscious. too, of the principles which
inspired Miss Anthony to seek those
rights"
Mrs. Sarah Thompson Pell of New
York, national chairman of the Ma
tional Woman's Party. said in opening
the service which marked the 117th
anniversary of Miss Anthony's birth:
Time already has proved the cor
rectness of her thoughts. Susan B
Anthony is making our history"
The ceremonies were held about the
monument to three women pioneers
Miss Anthony, Elizabeth Cady STAN
ton and Lucretia Mott-the work of
Adelaide johnson.

ticipated in this tribute.
Pointing with pride to her State as
one Of the first to adopt woman suf-
frage, Representative Honeyman called
the laws on the statute books today,
with reference to women's rights, 'the
history of her work there-the stones
to her monument"
"She was not only a worker In the
cause Of women, but humanitarian
for all the oppressed and handi-
capped" Mrs. Honeyman continued.
