COMPLETE IN 1900

They'll explain that our eco
non1ic troubles are traeeabie- TO
the early-1eeo's when the devel-
opment Of the United States was
completed" Before that, there
were constant new frontiers 10
conquer. new horizons at which
TO aim. and new geographical
areas in the nation 10 homestead.
But that ended in 1900 Begin
ming then. there were no new
horizons or frontiers
The automobile and oil and
rubber industries helped ease the
pains until 1890; then they be-
came fully developed, and We
hit the doldrums.
The solution thereupon was
deficit spending by the govern
ment 10 make up the shortage
that formerly was filed by eX-
pansion. and over future years
that deficit spending must con-
tinue. II we are 10 maintain our
living standards.
II means. Of course, con-
stantly expanding debt but that
problem is easily disposed Of by
the original proposition. that the
debt does not mean anything.
BURDENS THE POOR
Suggest that the debt he paid
off. and hands 60 up in Mortified
amazement. It's the poor who
pay the taxes, and only taxes can
pay off the debt. and Why should
the burden Of this $50 Billion dol
lars he on the poor?
The fact is that the original
premise. on which the whole
theory is built. is not fact The
horizons and new frontiers didn't
vanish in 1900, and they haven't
vanished yet
They're present today in more
inviting and promising terms than
ever before in world history for
those who are willing 10 work.
No frontiers have ever meant
anything. for those who we ?
NOT willing.
The nennle Mhn conceived the
theory simply lacked the knowl-
edge and experience that they
DO exist.

Literary gents have done pref

The last bizarre touch to the
whole proceedings was given
last night by Ramona, who was
born Peter Maresch in Vienna,
June 9, 1917. He decided 10 tell
his story at a press conference IN
his apartment. The sum and SUD-
stance Of this public gesture was
this:
Il loved Lupe-I knew about
the child-but l didn't know
what TO do"
Ramona said that when Lupe' S
doctor told him she was going
20 have a baby Il called her up
and asked her to marry me-"

she laughed at me and said;

The actor said he had known
Miss Velez for about year and
that they became engaged last
July. Il was very much in love
with her, wanted to marry her, y
said Ramona. Our plans were
made to that end. Circumstances
were such that we had to post

BEV ERLY HILLS, Calf,
Dec. l5-lP)-The lively Lupe
Vclcz, whose gay and eXcitable
spirit made her one of filmdom 5
most ColorfII figures, has passed
from the Hollywood scene.
Her death as a suicide, while
four months pregnant, was as
spectacular as her meteoric rise
from a 15-year-old shopgirl in
Mexico to full-bloWn movie
actress.
The 34-year-old actress was
found dead in her laViShly-fur-
niShcd home yesterday. An over
dose Of a hypnotic drug was as
Clibed by the examining ply
stefan as the probable cause Of
death.
Tucked into the satin pillow
case of Lupe's Silk-sheeted bed
were two notes, in her angular
handwriting, that indicated pre-
meditation and the motive for
her death.
EXPECTED BABY
One, addressed only to Harald
but which police said was for
Harald Ramona MaresCh, French
actor known in Hollywood as
Harold Ramona, said:
May God forgive you and
forgive me, too, but | prefer 70
take my own life away and our
baby's before l bring him with
shame, or killing (siC) him. How
could you, Harald, fake such
great love for me and our baby
when all the time you dldn
Want us? l see no other way out
for me, SO goodbye and good
luck to you. Love, Lupe.'
To Capt w. w. White Of the
Beverly Hills police, Ramona
said:
Il told Lupe l would marry
her if she was expecting an in
FAINT. l told her Of my great
love for her and begged her to
marry me. She laughed and said
She wasn't expecting baby at
all, that the whole thing was
only a joke. -. A terrible,
awful Joke"
1t was only snort time ago
that Lupe gaily told neWsmen
that she was going TO marry
Ramona, formerly in the French
Army, because, when she be-
came obstreperous, He tell me
where to go; he's the only man
who knows how 10 handle
LupC."
Then Lupe and Harald quar-
relied over politics. She an
nounccd they we're through and
brusqueIy added that she pre-
ferrcd her dogs, chips and chops,
anyway, and was going on to
New York and forget about
romance?
Yesterday morning servants
found her snuggled in her bed,
/ her long black hair in disarray
across her pillow. Sleeping pills
were spilled on the silk cover
| let; there were others on the
night stand. Lupe had been dead
about two hours. An inhalator
was Of no avail.
An autopsy showed Lupe
would have become mother in
| five months. DR.. Victor Cefalu,
| the autopsy surgeon, said he

man. either. But he Just had a
small job. He was clerk in the
interior department, He wrote
Leaves of Grass" He was
tossed out on his ear for it,
So. Suspecting that any poet
has three strikes on him in times
when football braWnieS win the
girls and poets disappear in lit
tie magazines, | asked MacLcish:
If you become assistant Sc
cretary of State, would that be
the highest government job
poet ever got in this country"
"Oh, No." MacLeish said,
right off. John Hay who wrote
the Pike County Ballads, you
know, was an assistant secretary
of State and later Secretary OF
State"
And there was James Russell
Lowell. He was poet and Am
crican minister to Spain and
England. Like MacLeish, he
studied law at Harvard, practised
awhile, and quit to write.
And there were Joel Barlow
and Francis Hopkinson, back in
Revolutionary times. The for
mcr negotiated some treaties
with the ALGERIAN Pirates and
the latter was chairman Of the
Navy Board.
SO right about here we run

jobs with Uncle Sam. The other

Tom jefferson was no SLOUGH

hospital.
The next time DR.. Matthew Nor

He had had a very i'll patient; he
had not been able to leave town.

Matthew remarked maliciously,

He was rewarded by the faintest
color rising in her cheeks as she
said, IL don't remember. But then

He rose and went with her 10 the
path and watched her walk up it,
carrying her head high. After a
moment he went back to find Mary
and tell her all that had happened
TO him during the week.
Summer slipped by with sudden
gusts of storm and rain, and Mat
thew spent as much time as he
could in Greenwich. He and Judith
had grown into a close, bantering
sort of friendship, very like that of
many years ago. Ella dotted on him,
and twice he had been called To see
her professionally.
And when autumn came and
Mary, and the family at the villa,
moved back to town, Matthew was
up to his ears in work.
Mary, returning 10 her own
routine, fretted about him. He must
have recreation, she said. She told
Ella 30, during one OF their lunch
con engagements, and Ella said
promptly, "Of course can't you
coax him TO come and dine, and
perhaps 60 TO a theater?"

evaporation at peche Melba,
but that's that. She won't have
such good chance again"
Mary remarked mildly, at isn't
such a good chance, Ella, il she
doesn't love him"
81 suppose not"
Then it was winter again and
Matthew had seen half the plays in
town or at least the first act Of
each. Sam Morley had been ill and
Hilda frantic. Sam wouldn't have
anyone but Matthew and kicked
violently against the consultants.
But he was all right again now.
And Bills wife, Barbara, was go
ing to have n baby.
1t was winter again and Irene
had been dead for a year. He went
with his mother to the cemetery.
Standing with her at his wife's
grave, he asked suddenly, EDO you
believe in God"
Mary looked at him In amaze

long silence, he took his mothers

him. She said, There isn't any,

fallen into q way of calling her
