Same Thing
1t was strange that just a little
later in the shelter of Minnie's
very humble room, Beth said al
most identically that same thing
to Doris.
OF course she said it in a very
lady-like and very gentle way,
because Beth was refined and tru-
ly sincere. She said, Doris, I
want to talk to you"
Doris shoook her head. Better
not tonight, Beth. Well disturb
the others"
I'VE needn't disturb the others.
There's this partition between us
and only Mark and the two old
people out there. II We whisper
they won't hear us. I've got to
talk, Doris"
"All right. then" Doris didn't
welcome the idea of a heart to
heart talk with Beth but she
scarcely knew how to prevent it.
Doris, tell me frankly what
has happened between you and
Steve"
Something Lacking
Nothing has happened" Doris
resented the inference in the other
girls voice. 1--WE were thrown into
this adventure together. Neither
of us wanted it.
I'VE had plenty of hardships.
We came out of it alive. We're
just as glad as we can be to be

Perhaps you dodn't when you

slowly. I'm not so sure that you
don't mean anything to each other
now.
There's something about Steve
that is lacking-a warmth he had
before. Doris, I love Steve. want
him to be happy.
IF he loves me then I want
him. If he doesn't love me I want
him to do whatever he thinks is
best. The thing that is important
to me is that Steve be happy.
Steve's one grand good man,
Doris"
Il know he is" Doris clasped
Beths hand warmly, but believe
me, he doesn't care for me. There
was a time the last few days that
I was wild enough to think he
might.
But when he met you today
and l saw him look at you I knew
then that he didn't"
Doris, You can't be sure" the
other girl said. You've been a
wild, gypsy-like girl all your life.
You've had everything you want.
You are utterly lovable. 1t isn't
conceivable that Steve doesn't care
for you If you care for him.

As Fifth Column Foes

BALTIMORE, June 29.-Gov.
O'Conor told the Maryland Depart
ment Veterans of Foreign Wars
Convention today that the Nation
was fortunate" it had such organ
izations which could help to stop
subversive movements before they
really get under way"
The Governors address followed
an announcement by Department
Comdr. James H. Arthur that a
plan was being considered for estab-
hShment of a home defense group
recruited from ex-service men.
Gov. O'Conor said the v. F. w.
and other veteran organizations "are
of inestimable value to our country,
and are proving their value in many
ways"
He said patriotic organizations
could help prevent fifth column"
movements "by establishing in the
minds of those who might be
tempted to join them the realiza-
ton of the unmatched privileges
they enjoy here in America"
Comdr. Arthur said the home de-
fense corps plan would be submitted
to the convention and that if
adopted it would be offered at the
national convention.

Employment Reported
Payments for 5 Months

Hopkins Reveals
BY the Associated Press.

The Commerce Department re-
ported yesterday that income pay
ments to individuals during the first
five months of this year totaled $29,-
l32000,000, an increase of per cent
over the same period last year.
The index of such payments-us-
ing 1929 figures as 00-increased
three-tenths of a point to 81 from
April to May, Secretary Hopkins
said. This increase, he added, re
flected largely the increase in busi-
ness activity following the slow de-
cline in February, March and April"
At the same time, the Labor De-
partment reported that employment
in nearly every region of the United
States increased between April and
May in nom agricultural establish
ments. There was a net gain of
250,000 in such employment, it said.
Secretary Hopkins said that rise
in pay rolls during May was more
than enough to offset decline in
cash farm income caused by the
sharp drop in Government agricul-
tural benefits. Salaries and wages
for May were estimated at $3,78e,-
100000, an increase of $61,000, 900
over April and $19l 900, 900 over May,
1899.
His report said that the total of
income payment totals during the
first five months of the year was
divided in this way: Salaries and
wages, $18,655, 600 900; dividends and
interest, s3,428,000,000; entrepre-
neural income and net rents and
royalties, $5,828, ,00o, 900; direct relief
and other labor income, $1,212, ,000,-
900.
Qncome payments to individ-
ual differs from national income
in that Government payments
for relief, crop subsidies. ETC., are
included. When national income
is figured, these payments are
excluded, but increases in corp
grafton surpluses are included)
In a report on the current agri-
cultural situation, the United States
Chamber of Commerce said that the
expansion. of industrial activity
should mitigate to some extent the
loss of farm export markets as a
result of the war.
1t added, however, that 'it is
scarcely to be expected that this
expansion will take place rapidly
enough or be adequate to offset the
effects of the diminished foreign
demand"

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
RIO DE JANEIRO. June 90
President Getulio Vargas, ap-
parently answering foreign criticism
of his June IL address championing
the ways of vigorous people today
called for American solidarity based
on the mutual respect and freedom
of each country to organize itself
politically according to 'its own
tendencies, interests and necessi-
ties"
"Thus we understand the Monroe
Doctrine and thus we practice it,"
he said.
Vargas, who spoke before the
maritime workers-Brazil's strongest
labor union-has ruled Brazil
through dictatorship for all
except three months of his 10-year
regime.
No Choice of Belligerents.
He disclaimed for Brazil any
choice among the belligerents in
Europe.
Our duty" he said, "is to main
tain strict neutrality. In the
defense of Brazil - = the obligation
of every Brazilian is to conduct him.
self In manner to keep Brazil out
of war"
The President refused to take
back" his June II speech, which at
first was interpreted by some quar-
ters as defending European dicta-
tors and contrasting with President
Roosevelt's message at Charlottes-
vile, Va, on June 10, the day Italy
entered the war against France and
Britain.
Vargas on June II said vigorous
peoples fit for life must follow the
route of their aspirations. n We
are marching toward future differ
ent from all we know in economic,
political and social organization, and
we feel that old systems and anti
quated formulas have entered a de-
cline. Z is the beginning " .
of new era"
Explains June II Speech.
The Brazilian President later in
formed Mr.. Roosevelt that his speech
coNd not be regarded as contradic-
tory. Today he told the maritime
workers that his June II talk was
"a call to attention in view of the
hard lessons the present days i'm

Remarks Misinferprefed,
Barlow Declares

Lester P. Barlow, inventor of an
oxygen-carbon explosive recently
demonstrated before Army officials
said yesterday that some persons
have misinterpreted his remarks
made Wednesday night In Baltimore
before the Americans on Guard in
which he predicted that within the
next year the American people are
going to have a new government
lacking the Constitution, even If
they have to pick up club to do it."
Mr.. Barlow said today, MY ref
erence to a club was nothing more
symbolic than the phrase used by
the late President Theodore Roose-
velt-'Speak softly but carry a big
stick"
The inventor was quoted in an As
sociated Press dispatch from Balti-
more to have asserted:
We'll go from this meeting and
talk to 20 people each. Then we'll
fill this hall and then well
go to the public parks and speak
there. And if they won't let us
speak there we'll fight. Well form
an army of citizens and march to
Washington and throw the Govern
ment out, by force If necessary, with
clubs and set up a new Govern
ment for democracy"
Asserting that some persons in
Washington had misinterpreted his
remarks, Mr.. Barlow declared he
told the Baltimore meeting that
force will not be necessary because
our opponents are yellow. They fear
free speech" He said he was not
urging the overthrow Of the present
Government by unrecognized meth
ods outside the Constitution, but
on the contrary urged the installa-
tion OF a government that lives
within the Constitution.

pre-war friend of Adolf Hitler, wife
of the imprisoned British Fascist
leader and daughter of British
peer.
In doing so, wary and menaced
official Britain not only took cogni-
Zance of the fact that Lady Mosley
shared actively in Sir Oswald Mos
ley's British Union" activities at
home, but it reached back also into
the curious friendship of two pretty,
high-born sisters for the Fuehrer of
NaZi Germany.
Lady Mosley is the third daugh-
ter of Lord Redesdale and the older
sister of the Honorable Unity
Valkyrie Freeman Milford, who now
is in seclusion somewhere in Eng
land after wartime return from
enemy Germany, where she was
shot and seriously wounded last
autumn.
During the years OF appeasement
the two sisters were frequently in
Germany as the personal guests of
Hitler. Lady Mosley became so pro-
NaZi that she trained her two small
sons by a previous marriage to
answer the door of her town house
and greet visitors with appraised
arms and cries of Hell Hitler!"
Her sister was equally fervent.

With the Republican, convention
over, Capital political interest veered
to the forthcoming Democratic con-
vention at Chicago, beginning July

Most Democrats, tSSnfident that
President Roosevelt would accept a
third nomination, appeared to be-
ieve that the only major issue fac
ing their convention would be selec-
ton of vice presidential candidate.
Senator Ellender, Democrat, of
Louisiana, predicted that nomina-
ton of Mr.. Roosevelt for a third

candidates"
The Louisiana Senator said that

harmonious move.

AS a preliminary to the Demo-
cratic convention. it was announced
that subcommittee of the Demo-
cratic National Committee would
meet in Chicago July II to consider
a plan for reapportioning delegates
to future conventions.
Bonus Plan Suggested.
The subcommittee headed BY
Senator Green of Rhode Island. was
created pursuant to instructions OF
the 1886 national convention which
voted out the two-thirds rule.
Southern delegates, in yielding the
rule under which they had been
able to balance the numerical su-
periority of Northern States In
choosing a presidential candidate,
were assured that new system OF
apportioning delegates would be
installed.
The present system is two dele
gates for each Senator and Repre-
sentative in Congress, plus six from
the District of Columbia and each
of the territorial possessions, except
the Virgin Islands, which has two.
Some suggestions have been made
that new plan should be based
on the bonus system, used by
the Republicans, under which States

Dental voting get bigger delegations
in the next party convention.
