 the complaint that the plant was sold in January, 1885 when the Sperry Corporation bought 27,OO9 shares of stock for $450, ,00O. Among those of stock are said to be several owned by the plaintiff, and it is alleged that the directors had no right to sell them.
 It is further alleged that Moore received nothing from the sale of his stock, which were then at par value of $25 each. Moore claims to have owned 3,l66 shares of the stock on May II, 1881 and at that time to have borrowed $15,000 from the Waterbury Tool ompany, giving 1,978 shares as collateral. All the balance of the shares of stock were said to have been owned at that time by the Clergue family.
 Sold But Got Nothing
 The l,978 shares of stock are said to have been sold, and Moore claims to have received nothing for them, although they were worth far more than the amount he owed the com. pany 6n the 4l5,OO0 notes. Moore further alleges that he lent the company 479,O0O which has never been repaid.
 According to the complaint. Moore had an oral agreement with Cler-

ter than they look If you remem-
 Der that the wholesale price level
 was 95 in 1929 and is Oniy about
 S7 now. But they're much worse
 than they look if you take into
 account the population growth
 since 1929 and figure it out per
 capita.)
 Specific examples given of the way things have been popped up are in the big boost the increase in farm purchasing power gave the automobile industry and in the high production schedules of the cotton textile industry whose big market is among the lower income groups.
 Just Wait, You'll See It
 So what? Well, the administra- ton idea is that you must have more of the same. You get a wage and hour bill which spreads employment to millions and increases the wages of mill lions, you try to break up monop- oly price fixing, you maintain WPA, you lash out at the wealthy men who the Treasury thinks are evading taxes, you try to work out a selective tax scheme which will go after "excess profits," you boost the inter-cor- porate dividend tax again be- cause you think holding com- panies are non productive devices for draining off wealth, you won- der how soon you uoght to hike up income taxes again and then you see what else you can think of.
 The beauty or the hell of this program-according to the point of view - is that, unlike the Huey Long or Townsend schemes, you're likely to see how it works out.

 If we get tot he point where we can settle it, we expect to holc joint conferences.
 Our job now is to try to keer things moving and continue the progress we feel we made yestar- day."
 He said the board would concen. trate today upon making satisfac- tory appointments for company representatives to appear tomorrow for renewed conference. The strike front meanwhile was less tense than at any tune in the last few weeks.
 Martial rule prevailed in the JohnStoWn, Pa, and Youngstown. O.. areas as a result of proclamations by Gov. George H. Earle and Gov Martin L. Davey.
 Picket Lines Thin Out
 Picket lines thinned around the Youngstown, Warren and Niles plants during the morning as mi litia officers toured the area and directed county peace officers in turning back non-strikers who sought to return to work.
 In the Canton strike zone, picket lines were heavier against the poS- sibility of a back-to-Work move. Colonel E. P. Lawlor, national guard observer there, reported the situa- ton under control despite two re- ports of minor violence.
 The home of Mrs. Grace Ronde was reported dynamited during the night.
 John Grady, 25, union welder at Union Metal Products Co., was reported beaten as he returned home from work.
 With approval of President Roose- welt and upon the urgent appeal of both c. l. O. Chairman John L. Lewis and Board Chairman Charles P. Taft, the state militia was dis patched to the violence threatened Youngstown and Warren areas to maintain the status quo and pre- vent disorders. New peace con- ferenceS may start Wednesday. Governor Acted Swiftly
 Governor Martin L. Davey acted swiftly upon being advised of col- lapse of the boards efforst to bring union leaders and steel ompany executives together in a joint con- ference to end the strike in time to prevent danger of rioting at the schedulued reopening of the Ma honing Valley mills. He ordered the mills to remain closed and sent 4,800 troops to enforce the order.
 Davey said he had consulted by telephone with the President, who he said, considered the proclamation of military rule-a modified form of martial lava "very fair and proper procedure"
 The President simultaneously dis patched telegrams to Chairman Tom M. Griddler of Republic Steel cor poration and President Frank Pu:. nell of the YoungstWon Sheet ane Tube Co, asking them to agree t1 the mediation board request that their plans to reopen the plants be cancelled until the board had acted
 Both had previously rejected s;;cil suggestions and early today company officials indicated that 1t was "tOC late" to cancel the plans.

persons scream with pain. Early in the New Deal MT. Roosevelt had the idea he could make everybody happy. Now he thinks he can make everybody happy except the rich. His present program is a share e-the-wealth program. But the rich will be told that it means more profits than overnight up to the moment the tax collector comes.
 Money Merry Co., Round
 It's all based on the velocity theory of money, which was fea- ture of the Townsend plan. You put the money in the hands of those who will spend it fastest, meaning those who are shy on the necessities of life. Then the shop keeper or landlord spends it and, eventually, it gets into the hands of Mir. J. P. Morgan or somebody who pays big fat slice to the government, which puts it right back into circulation again, pref erably through those who will spend it fastest.
 Higher wages, shorter hours, lower prices, maximum produc- tion, bigger volume of profits - all this to build up the bigger na- tional income which, Roosevelt said at his press conference the other day, would make it pos eible to balance the budget.
 It has come to be a well-ac-
 cepted New Deal theory that the
 government must redistribute in-
 comes so that high incomes will
 not drain off an undue share of
 buying power into overinvestment
 for a consuming market which
 does not exist.
 You go and ask the economists how they know it will work and they say that's a laugh on you, because the purchasing power theory has had its test and has worked and is working better all the time. Not all economists agree on that, by any means. But the local members of the craft do and they've persuaded Roosevelt.
 Two Ways to Figure
 National income has gone up steadily as a result of more production and that, MT. Roose- welt and the other New Dealers are glad to be able to believe, has been due to higher wages, more money for the lower income group -relief and so on, social security payments and relative absence of proflteering.
 At any rate, national income is estimated at 80 billion dollars in
 1929, 38 billions in 1882, 63 bil-
 lions in 1886 and 70 billions in
 1887. (The figures are really bet

The div- idends on the stock were to be credited against the indebtedness, according to the writ The stocks were taken over by the company at a meeting of the board of directors, and Moore claims to have received nothing from them since.
 The defense denies the stocks were worth $eO,0O0 and claims the directors had the right to sell them.

weeks at the Palm Beach resort Susan
expected most anything OF Jack

she expected.
Contenting herself with the hope
that he would ram his head into the
end of the pool on one of his grand
stand plays, she turned abruptly and
left Jack with his coterie of beautiful
admirers. Upstairs in her room, she
resorted to a pardonable and easing
session of weeping and handkerchief
twisting. And then, being a practical
person. she arose and bathed her eyes
in cold water.

AS USUAL, Jack met her in the
entrance to the dining room and
escorted her in to dinner, practically
the only time that Susan could be
reasonably certain of having him to
herself. In her newest gown, and
having benefited by the skillful ap-
plication of makeup, Susan showed
few indications of the emotional storm
she had been through.
She toyed abstractedly at her food.

to go back to New York soon and get

Jack shot her a quick, surprised
look, then he laughed. why, pet!
We're having a good time down here,
aren't we? And what's the use OF
having money if you don't spend it?'
His hand reached over and rested
lightly on hers for a moment, and
Susan almost believed him.

Il see, Jackl" she said, and then
added slowly: well, I suppose every
thing will turn out all right!" They
got up to dance, and Susan heaved
sigh. She was speculating upon
how long it would be before some
siren would think of a plausible way
to inveigle Jack away from her.

1T WAS two days later that Jack
and Susan were standing upon the
boat landing after a sail, with the
making Susan feel that she was COM
ing off a bad second. Then two dour-
faced gentlemen, looking queerly out
of place in their dark clothes, managed
to push their way through to Jack.
You Jack Randolph?' the tall, thin
one queried. The smiling young man
nodded amiably. You'd better check
out and come with U.s. then, young
fellow. We've got extradition papers
for you from New York;
'Extradition papers? For what?'
Plainly he was nonplused.

short man said tersely The train

assemblage of women on the dock.

the two detectives, but not toe

comment of the female menaces

sordid business like that" she heard

close at that!"
Before they had gone far enough
to attract much attention, Susan

CLASS PLAY A SUCCESS

A capacity crowd witnessed the
enacting of the three-act comedy "It
Happened In Hollywood" by the Sen
ior Class last Friday night. The play
was acclaimed great success by al
who were present. Each character
seemed to fit his part very well and
the result was an excellent production
Walter Price is to be congratulated
on his splendid portrayal of the char
acter Jarvis, the butler in the Penn
broke household. His humorous an.
tics kept the audience in laughter
from the start to finish. Mervin
Disharoon, the messenger boy, also
provoked much laughter each time he
made an appearance. Phoebe Mock
took the part of Doreen Downing, the
movie star, in such a manner as de-
serves much praise. The other char
acters, too numerous to mention here,
were exceptionally good in their parts
and all in all, the production may be
said to have been very successful.
BASEBALL & TRACK RESULTS
The high school athletes met with a
fair measure of success last week.
On Tuesday they defeated the cellar
dwelling Berlin baseball club 14-13.
Two Buckingham pitchers were pound
ed for 10 hits but many glazing err
rors caused the score to be close.
"Pete" Townsend was chased from
the hill in the 9Th inning but Vests
relief pitching was very effective and
the Berliners never were ahead.
At Ocean City Friday the team
were rained out at the end of the
first inning. The resort boys were
leading by score of 81.
The Snow Hill track team captured
fifth place out of field of approx
mately II entries at the Invitation
Track Meet at State Teachers Col
lege Saturday. The results were as
follows: Cambridge, SO points; Pres
ton, 81 points; Crisfield, 16 points;
Salisbury, Is points; Snow Hill, Ia
points.
It is easy to see that only the towns
of larger population surpassed the
Worcester team. 1t is also signifi-
cant that 2 points difference would
have given the local team Bird place
