northwestern provinces of China
Shensi, Kansu, Ningsia and SIN
kiang-are being Sovietized and the
Chinese Communist army now Is
moving into ShenSi, the Japanese

strong and led by Gen. Chu Teh,
the Red Napoleon, is moving into
Shensi from Shansi province where
it has been opposing japanese occu-
patton.
The withdrawal, Domei said, is
due partly to the success OF Japa-
nese military operations but it has
been caused chiefly by the inten-
ton Of the Soviets to Sovietize all
Of northwestern China.
Domei said that Soviet regulars
now stationed in LanchoW, capital
of Kapsu province, total 1000 while
large quantities of arms and am
munition are being transported to

Fred Stewart Says
Hanl-Eggs Scheme
Threatens Future

SACRAMENTO, Oct. &c. CUP)-
Fred f. Stewart, Oakland member
Of the state board of equalization,
declared in a statewide broadcast
last night that the 30-Every-Thurs-
day pension plan is morally un-
sound, financially unsound and
fundamentally un-American."
THE measure is morally un-
sound because it jeopardizes the
present liberal pension plan by
promising pieces of paper as SUBJ
stitute for real American dollars, y
Stewart said.
1T is financially unsound in that
it is based on payments, either
through purchase of two cent
stamps to be put on each warrant,
or the three per cent gross income
tax. far in excess of the ability to
pay.
1T is fundamentally un-Ameri-
can Ill that it provides for a die
tatorship which would be above
the law, thus nullifying the free
dom guaranteed by the constitution
Of the United States"

One day he was accompanying his

his eye, to the prison auditorium to
hear a prison bands concert and left
her to answer the telephone. Six of
the most vicious inmates grabbed the
child, barricaded themselves in a
room and informed the warden that
he must permit them to leave the
penitentiary, provide them with car
and not pursue them for half hour,
otherwise they would kill the child.
Should he comply with their demands

When the vitamins first came out,
they moved on an intellectual plane
which was somewhat removed from
the radio vision, but those who dis
cussed them admittedly found in the
idea of these stimulators and pro-
tectors of the body, an inspirational
idea which led many into prophetic
enthusiasms. There were many who
doubted if they would just COM
pletely reform dropping humanity
as was claimed. And this attitude
has been gaining ground in scientific
circles. But the radio boys have
just got around to whooping up the
vitamins as the things to give you

CHAPTER NINETEEN

FOR LONG time after she had
telephoned Jim's boarding house
and learned that he had received
her message and had not come to
her. Iona paced the floor OF her
hotel room trying to control her
despair. What was she going to 90
now. she asked herself? She was
alone, friendless, without a job
back where she had been the night
when he had rescued her from the
park!
Why hadn't he passed her up,
her heart cried out, now, in mad
dening pain? Why hadn't he al
lowed her to go her own way? It
would have been all over by now.
She would have been at rest, some
how. In the river, probably. In
stead, he had snatched her back,
taught her what friendship meant,
shown her how sweet living could
be, and now.
She couldn't bear it! Sobbing,
suddenly, with the uncomfortable
sobs of utter exhaustion and hope
less despair, she flung herself head
long on the bed and buried her
head in the pillow. It had been only
the thought Of Jim that had sus-
tanned her through this past week.
She knew now. Always he had been
in the back Of her mind. She had
known he would be waiting and
was comforted. It couldn't be true!
Jim couldn't be like all the others.
She couldn't believe -.
The hands on the clock passed
the midnight hour as she lay there
sobbing. She slept, finally, in a fit
full sort of way, troubled sleep
broken by thoughts of Jim. Once,
far into the night, she started to
her feet, certain that she had
heard knocking at her door. She
sGbbed again as she realized it was
only q dream. The cold gray of
dawn found her still dressed, toss
ing on the bed.
"Jimw she called, rousing at the
beat Of the porter's footsteps out
side her door. Then realization pos
sessed her brain. realization that
it was new day and that she must
face it alone. She lay for a long
time staring at the light creeping
so hopefully in through the shaded
windows.
A new day! How would she ever
90 through with it, and with the
endlessy( pointless succession OF
days to come? What use trying to
go through them, something deep
within her cried out and, finding
q little comfort in the very
strength Of her despair, she turned
over on her side and slept again
soundly this time, her breath COM
ing quickly now and then in little
