BEAUMONT, Tex, July 49,
Sheriff Chris P. Fox of Ell Paso
goes before the Dies Committee to-
day to offer it the results of his
long investigation into Communist
activity throughout the Texas
Mexican border country.
The witness is one of the States
most widely known peace officers.
Chairman Martin Dies of the House
Committee investigating un-Amer-
ican activities, said Fox has done
fine work"
The hearing was switched yes
terday to Houston, where Repre-
senta Dies, Democrat, of Texas said
he had received information that
foreign spies had concentrated III
Texas with alarming results.
Looking Into Bunds.
The committee has been centering
upon Communist operations in its
inquiry here. but at Houston
Dies resumed his probe of the
Kyffhaeuser Bund, made up largely
of veterans of the imperial German
Army Of Kaiser Wilhelms day.
Dies did not reveal what he
learned from three bundsmen he
questioned yesterday, but he inter-
rupted the hearing to say he was
"very surprised" at the Texas situa-
ton, and that when he resumes the
case in Houston, he probably will
consume at least a week before he
exhausts his sources.
He has learned, Dies reported,
that foreign agents have operated
in Texas industrial sectors several
years and that maps and photo
graphs of plants are now in poses
sion of those agents governments.
Adds Two Investigators.
So important did Dies consider
the new information that he called
in two additional Investigators to
lay the ground work for the &C
celerated inquiry.
The Beaumont phase OF the in
vestigation will last about a week
and then Dies and his staff will
return to Houston.
The men appearing before Dies
at Houston yesterday were Herman
Koetter, leader of the Houston Bund
who has said the organization was a
social order; Herman Nester, book
keeper who was on the battle lines
throughout the World War, and
Gerhart Stubbe, dapper little sales
man.

Bride In Deep Mourning

Dear Mrs Post. A young friend
has just lost both parents she
would like TO announce her en-
gagement now more than ever. and
be married At Christmas. We can
certainly all understand why she
wants 20 hurry her plans. but We
don't know how much Of an an
nouncement Of the engagement
and what wedding plans may be
made under the circumstances.
and how much Of wedding may
be had.
Answer: According 10 best
taste. announcements are proper
" made by the girl and man both
sending notes 10 intimate friends.
or telling them personally. Under
the circumstances. a public an
nouncement might better be omit

riage could be sent out BY an
aunt IL she has one. or an older
member OF the family. or, falling

brides family-her mothers most
intimate friend, for example. To
have a large announcement party,
or a big wedding. would not do at
all. But this does not mean that
she may not have a lovely we'd
ding and invite all the people she
and the bridegroom care for. But
It should be very simple She can

Fee for SolOist
Dear Mrs. Post: I sang at
wedding several months ago. The
bride-to-be asked me to sing.
am not a personal friend of the
family and was asked as a profess
sional However. since / don't
make a practice of singing at we'd
dings, when she asked my price
had no idea what to charge and
said that l would leave that to her
tation to the reception after the
wedding, and received some
flowers to wear Is there anything
I can do about getting any money
for my services? find it a rather
delicate situation to be in.
Answer: I am sorry, but your
own vagueness was at fault. If
you had stated definite amount,
you could then properly send her
a bill but having told her no
amount, and having perhaps led
her to think that the fee was
therefore trifling. you would prob
ably be much criticized We're you
to do anything about it now. par
ticularly since the bride evidently
thought that the flowers were a
suitable payment The only advice
can give is to be frank and bust
nesslike in the future When you
are asked what your price is,
answer what it is. To a profess
sional. whose price is probably
high, this is hard to believe. but
people who know commercial
values are few compared to those
who don't.

The numbness had departed

pain. What was Terry doing now
Would he find the house lonely
without her. The pink roses on
Blessedests little grave were still
lovely-but who would put fresh
ones there
One dreadful thought lurked
under all the less dreadful
thoughts. Terry had let her go
without a struggle. He hadn't
cared-he hadn't cared at all
She kept showing this thought
back, thinking around it, talking
arount it. Not even to herself
would she admit that tiny hope
had still lived when she went TO
Terry's study. He might not let
her go-he might toss the world
aside to keep her-but he hadn't
cared.
He had said. You're hard. Jan

ne but knew how quiveringlv soft
she was beneath the glittering
shield, how vulnerable she was.
Meanwhile, it was another day
of suffering for Terry. When Jan
left his study he had gone to the
window. Watching her get into
the racy car, he had leaned close
to the pane, hoping for a back
ward glance. the wave of her
hand. Jan had not looked back.
When Terry turned away from
the window deep lines had etched
themselves in his young face. His
shoulders were not quite so
square. His mouth had a hurt
look. The look was repeated in his
eyes.
He called Vera. Mrs. Carlisle
has left me-" he said.
Dreadful Things
Vera began TO cry. "Oh. DR..

sobbed. IT said dreadful things
