Had the ma- terial which the Senate sought to eliminate stayed out of the bill, H. B. No. 112 would have been, as generally believed, sraight reve- nue measure.
 The House, however, -eiused to concur in the Senate amendment and the bill went into conference; from this conference 1t emerged with the provision, which certain members of the House considered so important, intact. The House conferees who achieved this re- markable result were Davis, Harvey Smith Supposedly an uncompro- missing opponent of fish traps) and Peterson. This material is con- tained in this sentence: And in all cases where two or more applica- tions are received and the issuance of licenses thereon would result in such violation or conflict, the Treasurer shall issue a license to the prior licensee only and return the other applications

THE PENALTY" Edward Arnold, Lionel Barrymore, Mar sha Hunt, Robert Sterling, Gene Reynolds, Veda Ann Borg.

snBandit Arnold's son, reared to the profession, finds regeneration amid the simple joys of country life. Some clever twists and good per- formances, notably one by trained goose, make it good cops -and-rob- bers thriller with tear-jerking extra.
 Fast-moving in the city sequences it bogs down somewhat when it goes bucolic, but picks up again for the sons final character test.

Army Secrets for Spite
BY The Associated Press.

BY The Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April Al. Dutar de
Benque, SIS, admitted World War
French and Italian secret agent
charged with stealing 1,50O blue
prints of military aircraft pumps,
contended today he took the prints
for spite," rather than for any
foreign power.
Detective Arnold Kelly, who
booked De Benque on a grand
larceny charge, said the Frenchman
told him he had retired" from secret
agent activities, and had taken the
prints because Of a grudge against
certain persons in the Pump En-
gineering Service Corp. here.
The prints, which disappeared
March 10, were found in De Benques S
room last night, Detective Kelly said
De Benque, according to the de-

MONTGOMERY
M SIDELICHTS
BY Elsie White Haines


Have you not always thought of
the "juke box" as product Of the
goth century? Raleigh Tavern, in
18th century Williamsburg had a
barrel organ = with various knobs
one might pull out to get a drum,
violin, mandolin, guitar, or cymbals
accompaniment as the mood fan
cied. The only thing missing was
a slot for the nickle!
We recently spent three days in
Tidewater Virginia, visiting Will
liamsburg and Stratford. AS the
former typifes colonial town life,
so Stratford shows country life of
the period. The same people moved
through both scenes, for each mas
ter of Stratford sat at the council
table at Williamsburg, and took
his family there for the season.
First settled in 1888 as Middle
Plantation, the town was named
for William the Bird in 1899 when
it became the capital of Virginia.
For the next 80 years it was the
political and cultural center of the
colony William and Mary College,
second only to Harvard in age, was
established in 1899.
For almost three centuries the
''Duke of Glouchester Street" has
been SO called = refreshing to find
place with the leisure to use so
long a name = up North it would
long ago have become either Duke
or Main Street. 1t stretches thru
the town - the college at one end,
the capital at the other. Each
time the State legislature is in ses-
sion they come from Richmond for
one day, and hold a session in
memory of the old days.
The Governors Palace with it's
rich furnishings, portrays the
gaiety and wealth of the zoos =
world trade had just opened up and
fine china, tapestries and rugs from
China, Persia, and Turkey are seen,
together with the best England had
to offer.
Always interested in food, Raj
eigh Tavern intrigued us more -
the Apollo room, with its traditions
of balls and banquets. The stu
dents of William and Mary found
ed Phi Beta Kappa Society there
in 1776.
Thomas Jefferson while a stu
dent at the college wrote to John
Page: sLaN night, as merry as
agreeable company, and dancing
with Belinda in the Apollo room
could make it, never thought the
succeeding sun would have seen me
so wretched as I now am" Seems
that hang overs are not new either
and we had thought Thomas
always such a staid person!
In the bar, which has real bars
like a Jail, We saw the brass
"honor box, you put in coin -
the box opened and you were in
your honor to take only one pipe
of tobacco! The clay pipes had
great, long stems = it seems they
were public property = you just
broke off the stem bit to be sure
of its freshness.
The men of our party enjoyed
seeing their wives in the stocks at
the gaol, and we think, secretly
wished they might throw a little
mud, as was once the custom. The

Payment For Mother

No one has built BETTER sacrificed more or strug-

If this is indeed just desserts, then what is the
payment due the mothers who have been the power and
strength behind the man. who through sef-sacriice
and devotion have given first taste of gifts and
nsed the idea that for such inspiration and service
there is no need for payment. We have accepted
worldly belongings and felt earned them for the
time and trouble put into the business of living But
what will mother ask in payment?
There has never been period in history when
mothers declared strike against love, war de-
votion where they refused to dedicate their patience
to motherhood, where they aimed only for return
payment from their families For our victories no
mother today demands loyalty. To enter into the
spirit of the day must willingly and under

triumph the world. We wear flower for her.

we have made ourselves worthy of such loyalty and
affection. This is her payment.
