NORWAY'S COURAGE

Washington, ID. c. ULNS).-In n
letter to Wilhelm Munthe de MOrgen-
tsierne, the Minister of Free Norway
to Washington, President William
Green of the American Federation of
Labor said:
'On this day, two years after the
treacherous invasion of Norway by the
NaZis, | hail the courage of the people
of your country. Both in Norway and
ut the side of the forces of the United
Nations, they have fought increasingly
for the restoration of the rights and
liberties of their democratic country

ton of the whole world"

n week while our boys at the front
will be compelled To fight on Sundays
and holidays at their regular scale of
compensation and if battle is raging
would be compelled To be on duty Till
either death or victory is their por-
tion."
Unions Stand Firm
White collar organizations and news
papers have taken up the cry like Il
pack of hounds after their quarry, but
the unions are standing firm and en-
joying the fruits of their organization
efforts. The anli-rnioniSts want hours
heightened on the plea that war pro-
duction can be doubled.
The writer of this article remem-
berS many years ago when the Typo
graphical Union launched Il 0-hour
drive against the prevailing 1O-hour
day. 1t was Il bitter and hardfought
battle and the union finally convinced
the employers and demonstrated the
fact that II man could do as much work
in . hours as hc did in 10. The EN-
ploycrs liked the idea once it was put
in practice.
After "a lapse of time the S-hour day
was broached. Horrible, the bosses
said, claiming they would be obliged
To close their doors. The union won
again and showed by production sheets
that their forces turned out more work
in S hours than they did in 8. The
men We're frcShcr and the overhead
such as power, light and heat was
considerably lower
Even Shorter Day Now
The newspapers picked up their ears
and today many publications are op-
Grating under II 6 and 7-hour day. In
stead of abolShing the iU-h"ur week
they could put ON two or three extra
shifts, thus employing additional men.
This would put more money in circu-
latiOn and at the same improve the
living conditions of thousands of cti-
ZenS. The writer believes in increased
war production and all wheels should
turn. but with forces fresh with ample
recreation.

having Just inherited from his Australian
father a huge industrial fortune, derived
largely from milking machines
For ten years the combination worked
perfectly, and then began TO show signs Of
coming apart Theory was pulling one way;
practice another. And in between. unfor-
tunately, was their daughter. Juliette Mary,
now II years old whose custody was one OF
the issues at the recent trial.
In 1885, Bartram was in England on bust
ness. There he made the acquaintance of
17-year-old Sheila Sutton. described as "a
child Of mystery" and promptly engaged her
as his secretary
Then followed two-year period OF ex-
tensive travel. which took the couple around
the world to Paris. Germany. Australia and
Japan, before they returned to the Bartram
home in Hollywood Bartram and Miss SUIT

their relationship.

testified in response to questions about their
living accommodations at the various hotels
at which they stopped.
Just what were you doing all the time
you were with Bartram ?" she was asked

Numerous letters were introduced by Miss
that there was more to the relationship than
just tipping.
II learned that while Mr.. Bartram was
in Paris with Miss Sutton he took her to see
risque sights and announced he intended to
do the same thing to educate our daughter"
Miss Compton told the court.
He said he was tired of good women"
In one of his letters home relating that he
had taken flat in Paris with Miss Sutton
Bartram wrote that his secretary was a
dear child, she has been life-saver TO me-"
Another from Antwerp. Belgium. related
that "Sheila leads me about like little child
and I just could not do without her She
dries my razor blades. cuts my hair, and
finds my specs for me.
"In my old age l intend to try the pre-
scription of love and affection, two extrava-
gances, If you like. get both from Miss
Sutton in exchange for taking her to the
movies, her one passion"
In still another letter written TO his wife
from Europe, Bartram related:
"All I want Is a room for myself and
can't share this with Sheila-even TO save ex-
penses as this is one of the things Mrs. SUIT

and he thereupon produced several revealing
photographs of his wife. taken during her
earlier years as an actress and Follies girl.
Miss Compton admitted that she had posed
for them, adding:
1T was for the sake of art at time when
I had my career before me-"
If Bartram was an enfant terrible at home,
he was no less a one abroad the testimony
indicated. There was not only the Chatterton
episode, but also one involving Estelle Taylor,
former wife of Jack Dempsey.
She was the lady who had the misfortune
to sit on the aunt-hill while picncking
Bartram testified that he alone of the men
on the party had had presence of mind enough
to rescue her He mentioned the incident to
show the sort of chores that were required
Of the husband Of a movie star. The audience,
picturing TO itself the essential steps in rid
ding lady's clothing of ants-Bartram had
left these details vague-found it hard to
conceive Of the job as a chore.

Mr.. Bartrams seems to sum up his side of
the case even more significantly than his
formal denials of his wife's charges. Written
back in 1895 when the split between theory
and practice first opened up, 1t said in part:
"As between you and myself words have
ceased to have any common meaning, our
values and standards have changed in all d.

ton (Sheila's mother) particularly mentioned
as being contrary to her principles OF
economy"
The world cruise ended at San Francisco
in 1898. Met at the dock by his wife and
daughter, Bartram shocked them both by an
nouncing that henceforth Miss Sutton was To
be considered a member of the family.
Then. before they had a chance to collect
themselves, he waved an airy farewell and set
out to walk from San Francisco 10 Los An
geles
Juliette did not overlook this hike In her
divorce complaint, charging that he had made
1t just to annoy her.
He stopped en- route in hobo camps she
asserted and there picked up lot Of vile
parasites mot the human hoboes but the in
sect ones who camp out on them). To these,
she said, he extended the hospitality Of their
home with no more regard for her than he
later showed in connection with his barroom
companions.
Nor was this all. Not only was he pos
sessed by insects but also. she told the court,
by sex" He even showed her sister Ellen,
a naughty painting by Count lie Senec de
Keroily, and when Ellen showed signs of dis
gust exclaimed:
why do you pretend you don't like it?
You know you love it,
It was a cruel blow to the returned Ulysses
to find his Penelope's bedroom door closed

as saving "Buddha gave up his family for a
more spiritual life and we must likewise live
in purely spiritual union"
And then. he said, she added insult to in
Jury by moving his own bed out of his bed
room and installing In its place desk and
her theosophical books. While he walked the
floor, he went on, she, in the privacy Of her
quarters:
INDUCED in abnormal and religious
practices In which she erected shrine In
closet wherein she enshrined the pictures OF
two Hindu-like gentlemen. She has, in appa-
rent worship OF these gentlemen, placed burn
ing candles and cross at the base OF the
shrine"
Juliette attributed her seclusion in her own
room TO the fact that James insisted keep
ing in his pet bulldog, who was old and
odoriferous AS for the alleged theosophical
canon against physical love:
Il told him that was just Pigment Of
his imagination"
But there was nothing at all imaginary
about Miss Sutton.
He went about purchasing clothes for
her and attending to her dental and medical
needs" the wife related as the secretary sat
listening, interested spectator in the
courtroom.
"one time Mr. Bartram asked me to see
what beautiful dental work had just been
done on Miss Sutton. He tried to make me
look into her mouth but I would not do it,"
Worst Of ALL she added, was the time
he asked her to dress Miss Suttons hair.

brotherhood of man. She refused-definitely.
Dressing something. Sheilas hair, or his
own person seems to have been one Of Mr..
Bartram's favorite, and oldest, pastimes. He

explain it by saying that she had been pho
tographed so much In her screen work that IL
made him feel out OF It.; he wanted to be
photographed In women's clothes, too
However, this was not the explanation he
gave the court. Sitting on the witness stand,
he said he just did 1t In fun as for example,
on the occasion when the governess broke
her leg.
Juliette testified that she had at first
humored him in the fancy, even TO the extent
of making up his face with her cosmetics
Later she had come to think that 1t was
revolving.
One photograph. introduced in evidence
showed Bartram in the maids clothes hold
ing up the skirt to reveal a long stretch
Of leg
After Juliette had identified the picture
her husbands attorney, w. w. Wallace, pro-
duced some photographs of her. taken at
Cannes. France, in 1925. They showed her
wading. skirts lifted.
Who snapped those hot feet pictures?"
Wallace demanded.
Her attorney refused to let her answer.
He went to Hollywood Boulevard and
bought white tule dress and white bridal
veil with orange blossoms and a six-foot
train" Juliette said. He barricaded himself
in his room and photographed himself in
this outfit"
According to Bartram the dress had been
bought 10 wear at costume party and had
contributed end to the gaiety Of the &C.
casion After loading the train with buck
shot, he had gone among the guests, tossing
II over now one, now another like Roman
gladiator's net.
The victims countered with a barrage Of
hors d'oeuvres. sandwiches and cream puffs,
and wonderful time was had by everybody
except the host, who had TO clean up the mess.
Juliette, her husband testified had been
determined TO attend this same party wearing
nothing but top hat and cane.
II told her she had better amplify that
costume a little, unless the first prize was
case of pneumonia"
So he said she finally added trousers,
tail coat, and bull dog on leash
The dog, her husbands alleged bedroom
companion was not success He was old
and wheezy and had, TO an unfortunate de-
gree, lost control over muscular reactions
highly essential to the maintenance Of good
party manners.
But, to return TO Mr.. Bartram's alleged
self-photographs.
Il told him 1t was not healthy and natural
for a man like him, who went to oxford and
had thousands Of pounds spent on his educa-
tion to spend his time in that manner" his
wife told the court.
Perhaps II was this criticism that induced
him, as Mrs Irene WOODROW the Negro cook,
testified to come down to breakfast clad
only in shorts and make habit Of running
around the house In a bathrobe that was
half open"
Bartram, II was testified also extended
his fondness for exposure to his business life.
Us 1t true" his wife's attorney asked his
daughter, that you saw your father dictate
TO Miss Sutton while he was In the bathtub
and she was in the next room and the door
between them remained open?"
