81 say hitherto mean .hither-
to- This time, lacking coercive guild
ance, he has fallen into error both
egregious and irreparable. The Sem

American activities. Orally, yes, he
has denounced them. And in all
fairness, my friends, believe the
Senator at heart is opposed to such
activities. But, my friends, is the
good Senator-and I believe him to
be a good, if not particularly in
telligent, man-is the good Senator
smart enough to recognize subvers-

When he encounters them in the
luxurious drawing rooms, at the Law
ish banquet tables, of Washington?
When he entertains them in his own
home, introduces them to his own
friends?
at is this point on which we chal-
lenge the Senator! Who, during the
last session of Congress, was one Of
the most constant and familiar visi-

danced with the women of his house.

ION this point I challenge the
Senator! Last week three handsome,
ingratiating, polished young foreign
ers were arrested in Washington as
spies for foreign governments. They
were educated men, Of cultured
tastes and training; they were well
supplied with money; they wore cor
rect clothes, did correct things,
were gracious, suave and accepta-

men was Gabriel d'Allotti. Today,
Gabriel d'Allotti languishes in jail
as a spy, while the Senator dimes on
SQUAD and rich aspics in his stately
mansion at Maysville, while cam
paigning for reelection to his high
Office.
''In Washington, this Gabriel DIAL

CHAPTER TX

On Wednesday morning, after the
Governors speech, they had hardly
started their breakfast when sudden
ly Aunt Olympia bounded onto the
porch. She was in her dressing
gown, very red of face, and had
not taken time to remove the net
from her permanent wave; nor to
powder, although usually most pune
tilious about her appearance before
the girls. The Senator, his bath
robe draped not too neatly about
him, his thin hair standing up un-
brushed on a very pink head. was
close at her heels.
Helen" she said abruptly, what
in the world did you tell that mann"
"What man, Aunt Olympia?"
asked Helen.
THAT dastardly varmint. Gabriel
d'Allotti."
Gabriel d'Allotti!" repeated Hell
en-. "Why, I didn't tell him any,
thing! He knew lots more than I
did. l couldn't tell him, anything.
l don't know anything"
There you see, my dear! Just as
said. She doesn't know anything, &"
said the Senator triumphantly.
Aunt Olympia looked up from the
papers. Her eyes went first to Linn
py, then to Adele and then to Helen,
The three of them sat like one piece
of sculpture, white of face, wide
eyed, motionless. Tears came to
Olympia's eyes. Better betray the
nation (and let the army save il.
she thought treacherously) than lose
these girls.
II didn't mean to startle you,
Helen" she said cheerfully. "Del,
ring for hot coffee It's nothing
to worry about, girls. Limpy, you'd
better eat your breakfast; your toast
is getting cold. There's nothing to
it, of course, Helen; we know that. /"
"What is it?" Helen asked, with
white lips. what has happened?"
"Oh, you know how those foreign
ers are! They love the limelight,
even when they're in Jail. Not like
us Americans who commit our
crimes confidentially Fill their
cups, Hilda! Del's, too You
see, Helen, it seems he told the
press that he got his information
from you"
"From mel" .
"He did not!" cried Limpy pas
sionately.
"Of course not. darling. But nat
urally the papers are making quite
a splurge Of it. They have your pic
lures and-quite lot of dope about
you, and about US, too, for that
matter. They've even got some pic
lures Of him juxtaposed among you;
fakes, of course, but it gives the
effect. He told the press it was
you who told him about our nation
al defenses."
"But I don't know q thing about
our national defenses," cried Helen.
Except what / asked Uncle Ian.

Mayor Plans To Greet
 Youngsters At Party
His Honor to Attend Es-D Democrats Christmas Show at LOew-POIi's Saturday Morning; Food Admission

cod loves a cheerful giver and every voting boy or girl who attends the annual Christmas movie party of the Elks, Democrat and L0eWs Poli at Polls theater next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock will be doubly rewarded for his or her kindness for the proceeds will be used to help spread cheer in many unfortunate needy families of the city the day before Christmas. M
 The proceeds will be canned goods and other eatables which will serve as a ticket of admission for each yolingster attending. Every boy or girl in the city will be welcome to attend and all he or she has to do to see the wonderful show arranged will be to bring a can of food, a loaf of bread or some other delicacy which can be used in preparing a Christmas basket.
 As each child enters the tl1eater he will drop his contribution in a pile in the main lobby and enter the theater proper where he will be taken to a seat. After the show the donations will be taken by Exalted Ruler Harry x. Cashin and his Elk aides to the West Main street club. rooms where they will be packed into baskets for distribution to needy families next week.
 Every youngster attending and do- mating will be given show they will long remember. The sponsors of the idea have not let cost inter fere with their program and they have guaranteed a two hour show full of laughs. Mickey Mouse, loved by all children, will appear in per- son as Master of Ceremonies and one of his latest comedies will be shown on the diversified program.
 Doors of the theater will be thrown open to the youngsters at 9:30 o'clock. From then until 10 o'clock well known local orchestra, augmented for this special occasion, will play Christmas songs and every one will be welcome to join in the community sing.

lures in the neighborhood of $40,O00 per year. He further pointed out these savings had been made at the same time that the business of get- ting registration or an operators license had been reduced from a matter of hours to a matter of min utes during the departments rush periods. The Commissioner calls at tention also to the fact that for the ending June 90, 1898, maintenance stores amounted to $67 1872, in 1889, $52,973, and in 1940 the figure was reduced to $37,793. In word, he said, maintenance stores have been reduced in the past two years more than $30,000.
 On the highway safety promotion side, of significance in the Commis- Sioner's report, is the fact that for the calendar year of 1883, 478 per- sons were killed on the highways of the state as against 355 in 1889, a reduction of 123 Or 25.73 per cent. Also during this same period there were 14,122 accidents as against 18,- 525.. However, in these accidents in 1893 12,144 persons were injured whereas despite the increase in the number of accidents only 13,O35 per- sons were injured in 1889.
 The Commissioner in his report to the Governor offers charts indi- eating a 20 per cent reduction in floor space now occupied by the de- partment as compared with the amount held by the department in 1883. The department has released 8282 square feet to the Tax and

 In his report on gasoline taxes the Commissioner stated that there was an increase of $721,907 as of June 30, 1940, over the correspond ing period in 1939 Gasoline taxes amounted to $10,379, ,164 for the fiscal year June 30, 1940, as against $9,- 657, ,257 for the previous year.
 Apropos of permanent plates the Commissioner states, we are happy to report that the plates have been eminently successful. We propose to continue the use of the present plates for many years to come. They have shown little or no deteriora- ton in four years of use.

such as New York, Tennessee, Mary land, Maine and Delaware and oth- CTS have made a study of Connec- ticut's system with the thought of adoption in their own states. Inci- dentally, officials from these other states think that the plates have exceptionally good advertising value for the state because of their at tractiver1ess.
 Permanent
 Adoption of permanent plates ef- fected substantial economies within the department as a perusal of ex- penditures in a previous tabulation will demonstrate. This saving of money was not entirely due to adop- tion of permanent plates. Other fac- tors such as establishment of sub branch offices during rush periods, attaching of renewal application to certificate of registration, reduced

 Alterations
 Commissioner Connor reported that the physical layout of the de- partment was completely changed in 1889. Many partitions were razed and departments having close rela- tions were brought together for the purposes of efficiency. The cost of these structural changes were paid from the appropriation of the De- partment of Motor Vehicles and amounted to $5,380.74.
 The Commissioner in his report also submits a complete analysis of the cost of each section within the department, including the nine branch offices. This shows a reduc- ton of $56,168 in actual operating costs over the previous year. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1939, actual operating costs amounted to
