WASHINGTON, Jan. II. The
Senate today confirmed the NOM
nation of James H. R. Cromwell,
husband of the former Doris Duke,
to be Minister to Canada.
The Cromwells lately became in
creasingly active in Democratic pol
itics and one report was that Crom-

New Jersey.
Both recently entered the social
whirl in New York City. They gave
a lavish party last month in their

organization.
And another prominent New Deal

ate the corned beef hash and dane
ed to the rhumba music was Frank
Murphy.
To be sure there were Republicans
aplenty at the party, too, including
Gov. William H. Vanderbilt OF Rhode
Island, but the presence of the Far
legs in particular was considered
significant.
The Cromwells' voting residence

new SYSTEM OF
OIL PROSPECTING
LEASES STARTS
Old Permits Expire-Renta|
Must Be Paid Now for
Public Lands

All oil and gas prospecting permits
allowing their holders to develop
public land or let it stand idle, eX-
pired with the coming Of the new
wear and the nations oil ana gas
resources are now being admins
tered on a new basis, according to
an announcement from Washington.
Approximately $3.50 oil and gas
prospecting permits, some of them
covering public domain in Alaska,
expired December 81. Their hold
ers were privileged to exchange them
for new five-year leases. A year
ago when 1850 permits were termin-
ated by operation of the law, the
District Land Offices received $500
applications for exchange leases.
Congress, in the oil and gas pros
pecting law of 1885, provided for pro-
gressive abolition of the old system
under which it was possible to OBJ
tain an oil and gas prospecting per-
nit covering 1850 acres Of public
land by the mere payment of fill
ing fee of 1872. The law extended
the life of some of the outstanding
permits but provided that all should
expire finally on December 81, 1889.
Cents Per Acre
Under the regulations for eX-
change CT the outstanding permits
for the new prospecting leases, APP
plicants will be exempt from the
payment of rental for the land TO
the Government during the first
two years Of the five-year lease per-
iod, after which rental will be charg
ed at the rate of Is cents an acre
Failure to make a valuable discovery
of oil or gas within the fiveyeal
lease period will result in the ter
mination of the lease privilege.
Pending the issuance of the ex-
change lease, where application was
filed prior to December 81, appli
cants are being permitted to con.
tinue drilling operations into thu
new year by filing a $4,000 genera
lease bond.

Tribute by Bishop
Bishop Crimont, who was a life
long friend of the Rev. Monroe,
said of him: Father Monroe's life
was an exceptionally hard one,
filled to the brim with labors and
trials, the one equal to the other.
He was gifted with a most gen.
erous and valiant soul and those
who knew him can never forget
him"
Leaving Wrangell last May. the
Rev Monroe went to Seattle where
he underwent an operation at
Providence Hospital Several weeks
later he went to Spokane, and since
December was confined to his bed
with paralysis His last letter, writ
ten to Bishop Crimont on Decem-
Der 80, expressed his desire to re-
turn to his work in Alaska.
Father Monroe was born in Ly
ons, France, June 2, 1855. He was
a classmate of Marshal Godfrey
Foch, at Jesuit College in Metz,
France. Some time in studies was
spent in Bayonne, and later he
attended the college of La Provi
dence where his friendship with
Bishop Crimont was started.

lowed a year later. After Rev. Mon

Monroe built his church and resi-
dence on the south end of t h {
town and later moved it across
the river. He was instrumental il
building the first hospital in Fair
banks, which at the present time
is a valuable institution in the In
terror.
From Fairbanks, Rev. Monroe was
transferred to Wrangell where hi
was with the Mission for ten years
During this time he also aided II
enlarging the hospital at Ketchi.

Talk about loyalty!" says Jane.
''Why, I'm always going to put my
mother first and Dick Brown may as
well know itl''
But that isn't the answer, and il
James mother is sensible woman
she'll be the first to admit it.
AS for the old school friends, when
with a visible and violent effort,
finding them for a third time en-
joying his home in the late after
noon, Dick makes himself be civil
to them. Jane is amazed to feel her
spirit flaming suddenly into resent
ment. She loves Dick, but it is ut
terly unreasonable of him to dis
like Peggy and Joan. And surely,
just because ones married one
needn't be disloyal to old friends!
Loyalty, Haven in all Tempests.
It does sound irrational. And vet
If Jane wants her marriage to con-
tinue, wants to build a complete
and happy and successful relation
ship between herself and her new
husband, she will often have to be
irrational, and he will, too. They
will often have to forego reason for
that higher attitude in which all
logic disappears in the warmth of
confidence and love. All marriages
have their difficult moments, but
these moments will be safely wealth
cred as long as there is rockbound,
unfailing, instant loyalty between a
man and his wife.
So put that into your spiritual
hope-chest first of all, you brides
of June. Love is beautiful thing,
and while young love and passion
last they fulfill the law; they brim
life with ecstasy.
But when they waver, when they
are overloaded for a time, then
put loyalty in their place. Be digni-
fed, be silent about the trifes in
which your new husband fails you.
Whether he is at a bridge party
and playing pretty poor bridge, or
at golf club and far behind the
others at golf, or floundering in some
conversation that threatens to make
him ridiculous, or i'll at ease in some
group of your old friends, make him
feel that your admiration and under
standing are his as a matter of
course. He won't mind any of the
humiliations or awkwardnesses of
the evening if he knows that you are
right beside him, his wife, and glad
to be his wife, and ready to talk it
all over on the way home.
Devotion Pays.
'sWalter is always reproaching me
that make him feel ashamed" one
of last autumn's brides writes me.

most of the boys are more success
full than Walter, and certainly am
not going to make much of him for
things he hasn't done and pretend
that like being poor better than I
would like being successful!"
No marriage can survive that at
titude. But any wife who is won
dering a little wistfully why Dick is
a little silent these days, why he is
not enthusiastic about the social af-
fairs she plans, why some of the
bloom, some of the radiance has
gone from their marriage, may find
the answer here.
