Miss Camp, can you identify this man

crashed the party"
But is this the man."

night?"

Thank you, Miss Camp"
Pain as sudden as the reaction to a stab
in the back twitched the young mans face.
Surprise was there, and hurt and horror.
Involuntarily he reached for something to
hold onto as if afraid of physical collapse.
Then his hands dropped. You could sense the
bracing of his shoulders under the well-cut
dress suit, his determination to take it without
a tremor. Obviously he knew as well as the
detectives who filled the place that the nomi-
nal charge of beating hotel bill was camou-
flage. He was being held for completely in a
jewel robbery.

The American Way of Life

Is another phrase which has been
stolen by profiteers-
To represent Yankee success in
methods of exploitation
But this nation has now set it's hand
to the plow--
Turning a furrow all round the
whole earth
Encompassing at least u. S. A.,
John Bull, Greece, China
And now, perhaps, Halle Selassie,
bless his whiskers-
And if France starts to come back
In name of Liberty, Equality, Fra
ternity, again
Who knows but old Marshal Petain
may also be in our midst
This American Way of Life
Is, after all, something quite COM
posite-
We owe something to Lafayette,
and much to Burke

Paul Albert, village engineer.
According to Albert, new WPA reg
ulations will permit grant of ap-
proximately $4,000 for labor and ma
terials. This leaves $4,000 which the
village must guarantee.
Based on the amount of water used
by Miami University, the university's
share will amount at $1,000, leaving
s11, 900 for the village to pay.
The village probably will issue
bonds for that amount.

O'MAHONEY WARNS
OF UNEMPLOYMENT

Washington, d. C. (ILNS).-Amer-
lea faces the appalling alternative
Of solving the unemployment problem
and preserving the present economic
system or else submitting to die
tatorship of "big business" Senator
Joseph C. O'Mahoney, chairman of the
Temporary National Economic Com
mittee, said at committee meeting
called to consider the final report Of
it's studies on monopoly.
O'Mahoney attributed the present
world crisis to the failure of the demo-
cratic world to provide adequate OPP
portunity and employment for all.
"It is precisely because the economic
machine has not successfully func1
toned for the benefit of all men in the
democracies that the leaders Of the
new totalitarian world frankly declare
that the democratic system should bd
destroyed" he said.
Failure to solve the problem OF uni
employment has been accompanied by
failure to employ capital as we'll
O'Mahoney asserted.
In reviewing the work of The COM
mittee, which began it's investigation
in the latter part Of 1888, O'Mahoney
said:
"We were asked to study the conf
centration of economic power and I'd
find out, if we could, why with all thu
unlimited resources nature affords
money, machines, and men have beef
idle, with a consequent hardship and
suffering for millions"
