manded the latest news of the great
events stirring the world.
"Tll tell you all I know" Mattress

censorship is passing every hour. All
government offices are working night
and day. Hellstern's abdication was
received without a single protest and
the public invitation to Count Helm

the title Of King of Germany instead

almost as smoothly, although, at the
last moment, Leader Matorni is re-

Chamber, announced his fathers abb

wishes the engagement announced at
once, again with your gracious con-
sent. My wife must naturally take
a very high place at Court, sir" the
pilot continued with some reluctance,
"but it is not of such things that we
think nowadays. It is towards the
reorganization of German social life
that we shall devote our energies. In
that task I know that I shall receive
invaluable help from your sister,"
Matresser laid his hand kindly up
on the young mans shoulder.

said, "as smoothly and courageous

"Not at all. It is because of that

here. I felt so i'll on that Monday
when the storm came that I asked
Elisabeth to go into Norwich and get
me syringe. The only one I had
was broken. They made her sign for
it and when a broken one was found
near that poor fellow Fergus, the de-
tective began to make inquiries and
he actually discovered that Elisabeth
had bought one Of exactly the same
make at the chemists in Norwich.
I had made her promise not to tell any
one, so she refused to answer any
questions and in the end she went a.
way. Why are you looking so strange

He recovered himself with an eff

as he leaned over.

murmured. "Shows how much cir

doesn't it? I hope the fellow was
not offensive. But he had to ask

acknowledged. 81 could not bear the

completely out Of sight, was the black

marvellous music was flowing.

whispered reverently. els it Eliza

Lady Matresser smiled.
"There is only one person." she said
"who has ever made music like that
in this house."
The melody waned. Matresser al
most fancied that he could see those
exquisite white fingers moving down
the keyboard more and more slowly.
The last note came so family that
they leaned forward to catch it.
There was the sound of the soft clos
ing of the piano, the rustic of move
ment. Then suddenly it was Elisa
beth, glowing and triumphant, who ap-
peared. She came up the few yards
of space toward them, her right hand
extended towards Lady Matresser but
her left hand outstretched toward
him in a frank gesture of surrender.
He drew her into his arms. Elisa

happily.

said.

of the Great House and received his
first shock. There in a corner of the
Park, amply protected by every de-
scription of improvised shelter, stood
the aluminium airplane in which he
had made his two famous cruises a.
cross Europe. He stopped for a mo-
ment, staring at it.
"How long has the plane been
there?" he asked the lodgekeeper.
"About ten days, your lordship,"
the man replied. "The same pilot
who took you off brought her lady
ship back and they have been out on
several flights. The pilot has engag-
a mechanic from Norwich. We under
stand that he was waiting for your
lordship's return
Matresser nodded and drove slowly
through the inner gates and round
the great circular sweep to the front
doors. Henry Yates, his hair more
disheveled than ever and his face one
broad grin, was standing there to
greet him. Matresser descended from
the car, took his hands and wrung
them.
GAIL we'll, Henry?" Matresser in
quired.
"Her ladyship has been very anx-
ious to see you sir" Yates replied.
"She is in her boudoir now"
Matresser nodded. II will come at
once," he said.
Magda approved Of her surround
ings. She followed her master down
the hall, keeping an inch of two from
his heels.
"Cant help it, Yates" Matresser
observed, STOPPING to pat the dogs
head. She was given to me by a
lodgekeeper at the shooting lodge and
she means to stick"
They passed on to the small re-
ception room where the Countess Of
Matresser was awaiting her son. She
was seated in her usual highbacked,
tapestry-covered chair, her eyes as
wonderful as ever, always watching.
Nevertheless, he received a shock as
he drew near to her.
"At last, my dear Ronald" she
sighed. 81 cannot tell you how well
come you are. Why did you not warn
me that I might wake some morn
ing and find myself famous?"
"How did know" he asked. "What
have you done?"
cit is not I, DEAR" she answered.

"You have been reading those news
papers," he remarked.
"After all, I am your mother"
He waved the subject away, his
eyes fixed on her wasted features.
81 want to talk about you," he said.
"This Norfolk winter has been too
much for YOU"
She smiled. You find me
changed?" she asked anxiously.
"You are a little thiner," he ans
wered, "but your eyes are as beauti-
full as ever and your voice is quite
steady"
"How I wanted to see you and to
confess, dear Ronald she said. "Now
that we are here alone, you shall
know the truth. Lately have felt
so tired at times and I have wanted
to be at my best when you came back
that I have taken one or another of

moment everyone is talking about.

be held. 1t named a subcommittee
consisting of Senators Pittman,
Borah, Republican, of Idaho and
George. Democrat, of Georgia, to
Gull the list of proposed witnesses
and expedite the hearings.
Chairman Pittman said his reason
for opposing hearings was his belief
that policy questions involved in
proposed amendments to the act
already were clearly drawn.
Pittman Clings to Views.
There is absolutely nothing any
witness could say that would change
my views on neutrality" he declared.
The chairman predicted the COM
mittee would report to the Senate
some bill involving neutrality law
revision for action before the cash
and-carry" clause of the present act
expires May /.
Il think it is the sentiment of
every member of the committee
that Congress should not be de-
prived of the right to pass on the
question of extending the 'cash-and-
carry provision he said.
Senator Pittman predicted hear
ings would not consume more than
two weeks. but a difference of
opinion on this point was disclosed
by the committees refusal to adopt
suggestion by Senator Green,
Democrat. of Rhode Island to limit
hearings to that time.
The committee also turned down
suggestion by the chairman that
the public be excluded from the
hearings and that stenographic
copies of the testimony be made
available later to the press.
These proposals have been sug-
gested for revising the law:
BY Senator Pittman-To expand
the cash and carry" provision by
placing munitions within its scope.
BY Senators Nye, Republican. of
North Dakota; Bone, Democrat, of
Washington, and Clark. Democrat,
of Missouri-To give Congress, as
we'll as the President, power to in
woke the Neutrality Act and to place
all supplies other than munitions on
cash and carry" basis.
BY Senator Thomas, Democrat. of
Utah-To give the President, in
effect, power to name an aggressor
nation and to place an embargo on
shipments to it.
BY Senator Lewis. Democrat, of
1llinois-To repeal the present act
and permit the President to carry on
foreign affairs through executive
orders.
BY Senator Nye-To ban the ship
ment in time of peace as we'll as war
of all munitions to other nations.
