What is more important is the fact

usually made of a metal-composition

 Janet said swiftly, T don't think she's coming to breakfast, Aunt Mary. Hadn't you better butter your roll while it's hot?"
 It sounded parrot-like and re- hearsed-as it was.
 Aunt Mary set down the silver pot from which she had been about to pour her niece's coffee, and folded her hands before her.
 Janet Dwight" she said, you're the most transparent equivocator I've ever had the privilege of listen- ing to-"
 "All right" Janet said desper- ately, it was Cynthia who called me last night and untitled the telephone bells. I did 1t because we didn't want the newspapers to bo- ther you"
 "The newspapers?" If Aunt Mary turned a little white, her voice was not less steady. My dear child, if this is your idea of breaking some thing to me gently, you might as well give warwhoop and fire off the gun. Anyhow, I've had so many unpleasant things broken to me in my day that I'm practically shock proof"
 So Janet told her what had hap pened between Cynthia and her self.
 When she had finished, the old lady nodded her head slowly and murmured, Timothy Benton, hm? Well, I can't pretend to be sur prised,"

 Janet set her coffee cup down very carefully.
 When she had talked with Lance awhile ago, she had not mentioned Cynthia's marriage for fear Aunt Mary would hear. Now she won- dered a little blankly what he would think. She had so often had the feeling that Lance did not ap- prove of Cynthia.
 Before she could answer, the knocker on the hall door sounded sharply.

Gen. Juan Ya<ue. quent arrest, to-
gether with that OF another deposed
general, Gonzalo Queipo de Llano.
He and Vague have been associated
in a movement to oust the blue
shirted Falangista Espanol (Spanisl1
Fascists) and have Gen. Franco
form a military directorate to rule
Spain, leading eventually to . return
to monarchy.
II Gen. Vague Is not now In jail,
he may well be headed in that d.
rection. Yet, in view Of the past, not
necessarily. In truth, one hesitates
to credit any report of present or
prospective punishment of one Of
Spain's outstanding military heroes.
After an address to his soldiers at
Burgos in May of last year, dis
patches had him imprisoned, solitary
confinement; subsequently, word
came of his suicide by revolver shot
in his cell.
Next heard Of him, however, he
was fighting with customary ardor
before Lerida, taking time between
barrages to scoff at reports Of his
incarceration and of his death by his
own hand. He was a general never
defeated throughout the war, his list
of signal victories including Almen-
dralejo, Merida, Badajos, Oropesa,
Talavera, Maqueda, Toledo and
finally Lerida. In other words, he
was too valuable a leader to receive
condign punishment for talking out
of turn-in wartime, at any rate.
Undoubtedly, however, Gen. Fran
co would, had it been expedient,
have delighted to go to extreme
lengths in dealing with his out
spoken general. The issue Of rivalry,
breeding personal dislike, between
the two casts back to the time when
Gen. Vague succeeded Gen. Franco
as commander Of the Spanish For
eign Legion. Very often the Moroc-
can commander spoke in criticism
of his chief, but never so forth
rightly as at Burgos, when he scored
him for bombing open cities-"his
officers have relatives living in them,
even though Franco may not"-and
for belittling the enemy, who are
Spaniards like ourselves" and finally
for extolling the service of Italian
and German elements IN his COM
mand, who, said Gen. Vague, be
have like beasts Of prey"
But with war over and Gen.
Franco free to act without endan-
gering the cause for which he had
been fighting, he is in position to
deal more firmly with his subordi-
nate: hence, no doubt, Gen. Yague's
unexplained military demotion last
week. The whole matter is very
confusing, but out of it all one
| gathers that long-delayed show
down has come about between two
! forces that have continued since
1887 for control of the Nationalist
movement in Spain.

elected in their places. The recruit
ing field for important office, there
fore, has been extremely limited.
The narrowness of the field OF
presidential possibilities on the G.
0. P. side of the fence, however, does
not necessarily mean that quality is
not there. In Vandenberg of Michi-
gan the Republicans have a poten-
tial nominee who has had wide ex-
perience in public affairs and in
dealing with national questions.
Dewey of New York, a tireless prose-
cutting attorney and the nemesis of
Tammany, is the glamour boy of pol
itics today. Taft of Ohio is looked
upon by many Republicans as a
logical candidate against any New
Dealer the Democrats put up-if
they put one in the field
Gov John Bricker Of Ohio appar-
emily has come to the conclusion
that the Buckeye State Republicans
had better not waste their time
shooting at one another. He has
to all intents and purposes elimi-
mated himself as candidate for the
presidential nomination next year
in favor of Senator Robert A. Taft.
That was the burden of his state
ment in Ohio Tuesday. 1t may have
been a trial balloon. to see whether
the Bricker supporters in the State
would attempt to override his sug-
gested withdrawal. But whatever
it was, apparently it was a start
toward settling the question Of who
should be Ohio's favorite son in the
presidential sweepstakes next year.
Taft Silent as Yet.
Senator Taft has not announced
himself presidential candidate. But
every one expects him to do so at
some time in the future. He has
contented himself with saying that
probably next week he would make a
statement "on the Ohio situation. "
That he is ambitious for the presi-
Dental nomination has been common
talk in Washington for months
Furthermore, he has been favorably
discussed far beyond the confines Of
Ohio-and of Washington.
Back in 1920, when the Republican
party wrested control from the Dem
ocrats after eight years of the Will
son administration, the late Gen
Leonard Wood, Senator Hiram
johnson OF California and former
Gov. Lowden of Illinois tied the ma
tional convention into a bowknot
Warren G. Harding emerged as a
compromise candidate. 1t Is pos
sible that such a situation could
arise again in 1910, with Taft, Dewey
and Vandenberg bringing about a
deadlocked convention. But where
the Harding would be found is
something else. Senator Bridges OF
New Hampshire has a campaign
through his friends-under way
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, is
regarded as a coming man in the
Upper House. but still far too young
to be considered for the presidency
Gov. Aiken of Vermont has been
mentioned, and Gov. Baldwin OF
Connecticut. But neither is known

Minority Leader Joe" Martin of the
House is possibility.
Dewey Faces fractional Fight.

Ing district attorney of New York
County, while he has captured the
imagination of lot of the rank and
file of the voters throughout the
country, is not at this time assured
OF the unanimous support of the

New York delegation to the 1910 ma
tional convention. He has his trou-
bles in factionally torn Republican
circles in the Empire State. It
looked for q time as though he had
fallen out forever with Kenneth
Simpson, Republican national COM
mitteeman and New York County
chairman. But Dewey's declaration
In favor of the reelection of Simp-
son as county chairman appears
to have patched up the breach. He
may be able to count on a majority
of the big New York delegation
there may be bloc of the delegates
against him.
The principal criticism of Dewey
Is that he is too young and that he
has little knowledge or experience
in national affairs. There is another
criticism, which comes from some
so-called big businessmen, that he
may be too liberal" too much in
clined to go along with some OF the
things that the Roosevelt New
Dealers have put through. 1t is the
possible opposition OF these conserv-
ative businessmen which may in
jure Dewey's chances more, even,
than the question Of his youth and
inexperience.
Senator Vandenberg has been
urged by some Of his friends not
to step out now as an active candi-
date for the nomination. They
feel he would be in better case Il
he reserves his fire until next winter
or spring. He gives every sign OF
following this advice Nevertheless,
Vandenberg- for President clubs are
forming all over the country and a
good deal of spadework Is being
done for him.
Dewey's Friends at Work.
Dewey is not announcing himself
presidential candidate, either. But
emissaries are travelling through
the country and everything possible
is being done to cash in on his un-
doubted capture Of the imagina-
ton of a large number OF people.
His principal job, naturally, is to
persuade the New York Republi-
cans that he Is their best bet. The
popularity he can develop ana
political strength outside the State
may be important, however, in
winning him the needed support
at home.
One theory here is that Dewey's
glamour will have worn off in another
six months and that the real race
will lie between Vandenberg and
Taft, with the odds decidedly favor
ing the Michigan man.
Former President Herbert Hoover
and former Gov ALI M. Landon of
Kansas. the 1896 standard bearer.
are not considered by the Republi-
can politicians as being included
in the list of potential nominees
for 1910. Mr.. Landon has declared
himself definitely out OF the race,
and Mr.. Hoover has virtually done
the same-although not so ex-
plicitly. That both men will seek
to have influence in the selection
OF the nominee, however, seems
certain, But take it by and large,
the successful candidate for the
G. o. P. nomination must depend
upon himself.
