j. Haden Alldredge, nominated by
President Roosevelt to the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, con-
tends inland waterway development
would not necessarily injure the
railroads over a long period of time.
Mr.. Alldredge, manager of the
Tennessee Valley Authority's COM
merce department., expressed this
opinion in testimony before Sem
ate Appropriation subcommittee
IF it functions efficiently and
develops the great interior of this
country" he said of T. V. A. and
other navigation programs, cit may
conceivably increase the commerce
sufficiently so as not to injure the
railroads in the long run.
'The interior of the country seems
to need something to stimulate its
development. 1t is confronted with
very long hauls, particularly in re-
spect to any foreign commerce"
In response to questions by Sem
ator Townsend, Republican, of Della
ware, Mr.. Alldredge said he thought
the Tennessee River development
would stimulate much traffic that
the railroads did not now get.

Victory for rebel Generalissimo
Franco and his German and italian
allies in Spain is likely to cause far
reaching changes in Latin America
which may reduce American hege-
mony" there to "a heap of ruins"
the National Zeitung of Essen, organ
of Field Marshal Hermann Goering,
declares in an article which is at
tracing attention in diplomatic
quarters here.
Throughout Latin America there
are already trends toward national
ism, totalitarianism, authoritarian
ism and anti-Semitism. the National
Zeitung declares.
U. S. Hegemony Menaced.
"These natural phenomena" it
goes on, (which Yankee-Jews and
Red Spaniards would like very much
to attribute to an Italian-German
propaganda which has never existed
these springs of national spirit
which are already flowing in part in
considerable strength-can, if the
die is cast in Spain, change into ma
tive dreams which would overflow
and reshape both the internal and
foreign political structure of the
New World.
''The policy of continental hege-
mony of the Yankees would be re-
duced to heap of ruins The pam
tomime of good neighborliness'
would then have been performed in
vain. That is why the Jews in the
White House in Washington have
such burning interest in the Span
ish Civil War"
American Reaction Stressed.
The National Zeitung insists again
and again in it's article on the i'm
portant reverberation which
Franco victory in Spain will have in
the Western Hemisphere:
"The world understands with COM
plete clarity that the Spanish Civil
War is question of the first order
for the Western World" it says.
"The political significance of this
struggle also extends over the ocean,
however, for Spain is for 18 of the q
American nations still the mother
country to which they are indebted
for their language, culture and re-
ligion, and to which they are still
bound by strong ties of blood. A de-
cision in Spain will bring American
decisions in its wake"

Refugees Find Happiness on Oregon Farm

PORTLAND, ORE. = Seventeen
miles from Portland, on Cedarbrook
dairy farm, II refugees from Nazi-
fed Austria are starting life anew
in a land where cattle have no horns
and everyone seems to be free.
The refugees, II Jews and one
Catholic, are mostly members of
the Eisinger and Kubin clans, once
respected citizens in their Austrian
communities. Moritz Eisinger, the
leader, was formerly government
adviser in cattle breeding and dairy
affairs and buyer of cattle for

and made into bread. Destruction
of the chestnut was a calamitous
event to the Indians.
About 1904 an Oriental fungus
known as Endothia Parasitica ap-
peared on the trees, and with ap-
palling speed swept through New
England and entered the South. It
attacked the bark of the American
chestnut, girdled the trunk, and
killed the tree with amazing dis
patch. The fungus was very pro-
life and its seed so light that every
breeze waited it on its lethal Jour
ney.
Now in 1889, great splotches of
gray trunks in the live forests of
the Blue Ridge mountains bear wit
ness to the arboreal tragedy. More
than 95 per cent of North Carolina s
chestnut trees are dead or dying. A
few survive, but rather by chance
than resistance; and they, too, are
doomed.
Every effort to halt the scourge
failing, forestry men at the state
college several years ago trans
planted healthy trees here. 200 miles
from the chestnut belt. After four
years, the young trees are healthy
and thriving, and their guardians
speculate that when the blight has
run its course, their thin little line
of sprouts will be the progenitors
of another mighty chestnut forest
in North Carolina.

CHAPTER VII

1t was to be Miss Moss who per-
ceived beyond dispute that. Kitty
Leaford had been murdered. She
had stayed behind, in the car, when
the garage man Thayer, in response
to Tope's inquiry went to point out
the path that led to Jim Glovere's
cabin. Thayer returned, and a girl
came cut of the office of the garage
to join him. Thayer called her Lis
sa; she was. Miss Moss perceived,
his daughter; and Miss Moss had
some casual talk with them.
After time she saw Lissa's eyes
suddenly fix on something toward
the house, in an expression of con-
cern; and Miss Moss looked that
way to see man moving secretly
among the trees. Then LISA with
out word went toward the house
and disappeared indoors. She did

Austria to keep the unwanted fami-
lies from harm.
One by one they left Austria,
forced to "buy' their belongings at
twice their regular price in order
to take them along.
Josef Gross, Hungarian whose
model farm had become widely
known, was chosen to lead the agri-
cultural experiment at Cedarbrook,
a 235-acre development which was
already well known in Portland.
Since the refugees arrived it has
received even more publicity.
None of the group shirks his tasks.
After Cedarbrook's farm home had
been remodeled to accommodate its
strange family, many other i'm
provements were started under Jo-
sef Kubin's direction. Each evening
the refugees study the English lam
guage and the history of their adopt
ed land, for all want to become nat
uralized citizens of the United States
as soon as possible.
Cedarbrook' success goes coun-
ter to popular fallacy, which says

not reappear, but neither did the
secret man. Miss Moss thought she
would know his form again. She
fell to talking with Thayer, and
when by and by the Inspector and
Clint returned, she thought her time
here had not been misspent.
Clint said eagerly: "I've seen her.
Talked with her. She's wonder!"
Miss Moss said: SIS she, Clint?
That's fine." But she looked ex-
pectantly at the older man.
Inspector Tope without word got
into the car, and Clint took the
wheel. They started back toward
Boston.
"Accident?" Miss Moss asked
presently.
Tope answered in an distracted
tone: Doctor Derrie says so! He
will call it accident, yes" He
sighed, as though he were tired.

Texas Offers Garner for President
But Cactus Jack Holds His Tongue
Recuperating Congress
Discovers Leader in
37-Year Veteran
By THOMAS WALKER

They used to tell the story of
woman who had two sons.
One went to sea and the other
became vice president of the
United States. Neither was
heard from again.
But Cactus Jack Garner is
not like Alexander Throttlebot-
tom, the musical comedy vice
presidential candidate who ran
on the ticket with one Mr.. Win
tergreen in "Of Thee l Sing"
For six long years the Sage
of Uvalde has dimmed his
light under ten-gallon Texas
sonbrero, but the sombrero
itself has been known to official
Washington since 1902 SO Jack Gar
ner couldn't retire to the abyssmal
obscurity which traditionally BELTS
a vice president.
Today they're booming this 10
year-old southwest plainsman for
President. It's boom which light
thinkers call a slap at Rooseveltian
spending, but to congress it means
much more. Any member of the
Capitol Hill Garner club will ex-
plain it this way:
Congress Feels Its Oats.
Since 1933-indeed, for a half CEN
tury-congress has slowly surren-
dered its power to the executive
branch of government. Today's
trend demands restoration of that
power and Jack Garner is the logi-
cal veteran to lead the battle.
Down Texas way, where they've
had native son boom of their own
for many years, no less than Son
Elliott Roosevelt recently told his
Texas State Radio network listen
ers: "John Garner is in the drivers
seat right now, well in the lead as
likely Democratic candidate for the
presidency in the 1910 election
The American Institute of Public
Opinion shows Garner stock rising
from 20 per cent (of all Democrats)
last December to AZ per cent in
early April. And Emil Hurja, Jim
Farley's political statistician, be-
Geves that early leaders in popular
polls invariably stay in the lead.
How Texas Judges a Man.
What kind of a President would
Jack Garner make? Folks down
UvaIde way test mans mettle by
the way he behaves on camping
trip, his poker playing and his abil-
ity to judge whisky. They give the
beetle-browed president of the SEN
ate 100 per cent on all three points,
and it therefore stands to reason
he must have a lot of horse sense.
Economy, for instance. Like most
westerners who go to Washington,
he's lawyer and a banker. Jack
Garner is so successful that he owns
a ranch and holds a basketful of
mortgages on Uvalde. He drives a
Chevrolet of 1880 vintage-his only
car-and lives in a plain yellow
brick house. When he goes camping

''The trouble with me-" he con-
fessed, "I'm meddling FOOL
"What is it?" she asked. "What
disturbs your"
He wagged his head doubtfully. "I
don't know" he admitted. Here's
a woman dead, and as far as you can
see, there's no mystery about it.
But there are lot of little things,
strange, unusual"
Miss Moss asked: "What are
they? That Miss Leaford should run
for a doctor, without stopping to
dress, for instance?"
The old man made a gesture as
though to brush away an annoying
swarm of mosquitoes. "Why, that,
yes," he agreed. 'Then the tele-
phone was out of order, and the cleo
trio light went out at the wrong
time, and the front door of the house
blew open in spite of the fact it was
always bolted at night. And then
this man that lives up here in the
woods"
Miss Moss broke in with a ques-
ton: "What is he like? What did you
think of him?"
"He's strong man." answered
Tope, "doing nothing. Lives. up
there alone, writes poetry for fun,
tramps around the woods, and looks
at Miss Leaford as though she
meant a. lot to him. He told me
that now that her mother is dead, he
had mind to take June away from
here"
Clint cried angrily: "He did? That
tramp! I'll"
Miss Moss asked acutely: eff he's
so fond of Miss Leaford, what does
he think of the rest of the Kenesaw
connecticut"
Tope chuckled. "He talked quite
a lot about them," he admitted.
''He seemed to know them pretty
well, know a lot about them. He
says old Mrs. Bowdon and her
daughter, Mrs. Taine, have things
their own way up there. He said
they were like people living in the
valley below big dam. Bowdon is
a wealthy man, and Hurder too;
and their money is like the water
behind the dam, waiting to flow
down the valley when they die, flow
into new channels. The others all
sit there waiting for the dam to
break, with their buckets ready to
catch the overflow, afraid they'll let
a few drops get away"
Miss Moss said softly: "That's
why they're afraid"
Tope looked at her in quick atten-
ton. "Eh?" he exclaimed. 'sWhy
should they be afraid? After all,
the money can't get out of the FAM
ily."
Having things makes people
afraid" she reminded him. ga man
with nothing to lose has nothing to
fear"
Tope shook his head. 'I don't
know" he demurred. "It's mighty
easy to be afraid There's one
other thing-probably no connection.
But when Clint and I were on our
way in to Glovere's cabin, we saw
a man in the woods. He was COM
ing down the path toward us; but he
spotted us, about as soon as we
saw him, hundred yards away or
so. And he ducked to one side, out
of the way, and kept out of sight
while we went by"

is good indication of the Garner
philosophy. He's old-fashioned
enough to question some of the more
unusual features of the New Deal.
And he's the classic type politician
who holds party solidarity above
immediate expediency.
Garner independence didn't assert
itself until the winter of 1887 when
the vice president demanded action
to curb sit-down strikes. 1t gained
strength the following spring when
he refused to participate in the Su-
p1eme court enlargement fight.
If John Garner is elected Presi-
dent, December II, 1888, will 60
down in history as the day his boom
started. 1t was then he returned to
Washington and found conservative
Democrats trying to decipher hand
writing on the wall. Did the No
vember election defeats mean a ma
tional trend to Republicanism? Pres
ident Roosevelt thought not, main
tanning local issues alone were in
volved. Jim Farley thought other
wise and it was time for all good
Democrats to come to the aid of
their party.
Mr.. Garner Talks Harmony.
What happened during Jack Gar
ner'S two-hour conference with Mr..
Farley may never be known. Nei-
ther will the 312-hour discussion with
President Roosevelt be divulged, but
when Cactus Jack emerged it was
quite obvious the nations No. / and
No. 2 citizens had been talking party
harmony.
Subsequently the Garner club
grew. Paths were beaten to its door
by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace,
Secretary of Commerce Hopkins,
Treasury Undersecretary Hanes and
many big and little congressman.
Sometimes they came singly, at 9TH
er times in groups.
This leadership is peculiar thing,
almost a negative quantity because
Mr.. Garner doesn't make speeches
against his boss, indeed has never
committed himself in public. Some
arch-New Dealers think he's plotting
craftily to overthrow Mr.. Roosevelt,
but the men who know him UNDER
stand better. It's the magnetic
charm of man who's been mel
lowed and wizened by 81 years in
congress, and who today is more
than just vice president but a
patron saint as well.
His hobby is helping congressional
youngsters get start in the world.
If you've any doubts about this,
count noses among Texas numeri-
cally insignificant representation
and you'll find powerhouse. In the
house, Marvin Jones heads the ag-
riculture committee, Milton West
the elections committee, Hatton
Summers the judiciary committee,
Fritz Lanham public buildings and
grounds, Joseph Mansfield rivers
and harbors and Martin Dies, un-
American activities. Sam Rayburn
is majority floor leader.
In the senate Morris Sheppard
heads both military affairs and cam
paign expenditures committees
while Tom Connally heads public
buildings and grounds. Both make
their voices heard often in other
committees.
The 1910 campaign is still far from
cut and dried, but there is no better
watchword than ex-President Hoov-
er's admonition in 1929 to fiedgling
Washington reporter: There's one
man on Capitol Hill you will always
want to watch. He is that red-faced
bushy-browed man from Texas,
John N. Garner-one of the shrewd-
est and ablest men in American
political life."
