the ,Jegal battle Is being watched with Interest. This idea of trying to cure the depression, unemployment and what not with a five billion dollar bond issue and building new postoffice buildings is the hunk. The government can't afford it anymore than the individual and right now Is not the time to create more debts, which result In increased Interest payments, higher budgets and taxes. Everett Sanders, new generalissimo of the administration forces has let it be known that he and the Republican committee are managing President Hoover's campaign The president seems too busy to monkey with politics, but if he has to O. K. every speech to be made on the liquor question he'll have some job between now and November. Indiana Democrats today adopt a platform and nominate candidates for state offices from governor down to clerk of the supreme court. The gathering of delegates end party members was large and enthusiasm ran high. The national convention is next week and following the vacation period the campaign will begin in earnest and continue until November 8. With Governor Roosevelt selecting John E. Mack of Poughkeepsie and Al Smith picking Governor Ely of Massachusetts to make their nominating speeches, plans are going forward for the big convention in Chicago. And these two gentlemen are not the only ones who will be nominated, the field including about a dozen men of presidential caliber. The "stop Roosevelt" movement may gain strength, but up to now the New York governor seems to hold the lead. The mayor of Cicero who had the nerve to hire an able police chief a few months ago. saw that official perform the other day when he arrested Al Capone's baby brother and raided the notorious Capone hotel. It seems that if the raids and gang killings keep up Chicago and suburbs will be cleaned up. Gangdom can’t live without police protection and once honest officials start, there should he little trouble to rid communities of the element. .

Military Training In Schools By GEORGE L. BERRY. President of the International Printing Pressmen and Assistants' Union of North America

The term "Military Training in Schools" has developed a state of mind in many quarters that the purpose of using Reserve Officers Training Corps in schools was to militarize the school and the students thereof in America and in consequence of this state of mind considerable opposition presents, itself. Much of the opposition comes from well-meaning patriotic citizens. From other sources criticisms arise that are ulterio - in their classifications. The American Legion’s advocacy | for military training, and let us tall it that, in the schools of our country Is an attitude of frankness that is deserving of the most sympathetic consideration of all. It is proposed that the boys of today, (he citizens of tomorrow, shall have (he benefit of some understanding of the necessity of selfprotection. and with this that they shall profit physically as well as mentally by the training attendant to such public instructions in the schools of our country. The development of a war spirit,

which must not he associated with i the military training in Schools, i comes not in consequence of developing the facilities of self-pro-tection but from political and economic injustices, and if politi-i cal and economic injustices be- • come intolerable, then a man's I ability to defend himself could j not be considered a liability but ■ to the contrary a very definite asset. There ought to be enough social! order, economic justice and re * | ligious influence to control spirit of war without seeking the! establishment of a state ot help-J iessness on the part of the citi-j ' zens of tomorrow. It is my opin-: ion. therefore, that the Reserve' Officers Training Corps in school is an aid not only in the education' of the youth of our land but is a' direct contribution to their physi-1 cal well-being and offers advantages in the furtherance of citizenship service. Tomorrow: F. Trubee Davison, Assistant Secretary of War.

"MURDERtheNIGHTCLUBIwI THE NEW THATCHER COLT DETECTIVE MYSTERY I by ANTHONY ABBOT S Jr tosvwwr.l93lßY COVTCJ-FmSDE BY KINO rtATUfLES SYNDICATE,IfJC V,

SYNOPSIS Lola Carewe, night club habitue, receives a death threat. New Year's Eve. Previously her dog and parrot were mysteriously killed. District Attorney Merle K. Dougherty suspects Lola of being the “brains” of the jewel thief ring that has baffled the police. Although her husband, Gaylord Gifford, died practically penniless, Lola lives in luxury. Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt places a guard in LolX’s penthouse apartment, warning her that she must not be alone in a room at any time. Mrs. Carewe, Lola's mother; Chung the butler, Eunice the maid, and Vincent Rowland, an attorney, are present Tn the living room, the Commissioner finds a bag belonging to Christine Quires, Lola's guest. It evidently had been used that night, yet Lola informs Colt that Christine is at the Lion’s Paw, a roadhouse, where Lola was to have joined her. Colt is surprised to find Mrs. Carewe’s room in strange contrast to the surrounding wealth. Lola’s own boudoir is a gaudy contradiction of the living room's elegance. Lola refuses to reveal the identity of the young man whose photograph adorns her dresser. Against orders, she enters the guest room alone. A scream follows. Rushing in, Colt finds her on the floor, unconscious. Dr. Hugh Baldwin, a friend, diagnoses the case as a heart attack. Lola dies; Colt calls it murder. Unnoticed. he takes something from the doctor's bag. CHAPTER TEN DISTRICT Attorney Dougherty faced Colt in the middle of the room and laid two red hands on the chief's shoulders. “For once you and I agree, Thatcher,” he announced. “This is murder!” Colt nodded sombrely. “Apd I think I’ve got the solution!” added the District Attorney in a husky whisper. “Which is ” “Inside job—those death threats —killing of a dog and parrot—all that stuff—get this room-mate woman and give her the works! “You mean Christine Quires killed Lola?” “Or knows who did!” “Motive, Dougherty?” “The dead girl knew too much—about jewel robberies.” “But how was it done?” “I don't know how it was done! But no matter what kind of hocuspocus they used, we can find it-— give us time,” proclaimed the District Attorney with an oracular wave of his mighty arm. “You’ll see that the jewel ring is at the bottom of this!” There was a telephone beside the bed. Escaping from Dougherty’s grasp, Colt lifted the receiver and called for his private number at Police Headquarters. “Inspector Flynn, please," the Commissioner murmured into the transmitter, and then turning his luminous eyes on me, he added: “Tony, get Lieutenant Fallon. Tell him' what’s happened. Haye him check up on his men, to see if any of them heard Anything unusual. Then report to me here in five minutes. And Tony ” I was at the door. “Find out who is in charge of this apartment house—no employe goes home until released.” “I understand, chief.” As I hurried from the death chamber, I knew full well what was now happening down at Center Street. Once the Commissioner’s message was received, action commenced. Instantly the Bureau of Criminal Information was notified that a woman named Lola Carewe had died suddenly and mysteriously; murder was suspected. All the facts Colt gave over the telephone were transmitted to this centra! bureau and thus made available, if and when necessary, to the entire force. Meanwhile, a corps of specialists was being organized and

dispatched to the scene: detectives from the Borough Homicide Squad, with their official photographers and stenographers. With them would come the Medical Examiner or one of his assistants. Probably the Inspector commanding the particular detective division which included Lola’s apartment house in its boundaries, would also appear, in company with the Captain of the local precinct. Knowing that these troops from the Homicide Squad would soon be in possession of the premises, I was also sure that Thatcher Colt would follow his usual custom of learning as much as possible before his reenforcements arrived. It is sensible police practice in the conflict between authorities and witnesses to strike at the earliest possible moment. In the shock that overcomes all except the most hardened—or the most insane—of criminals, just after a violent death, the barriers of deception are difficult to sustain. A murderer may prepare in advance the most convincing story and yet, immediately following the execution of his dark deed, find himself utterly unable to speak a syllable of his lying tale. I felt positive Colt would begin his inquisition at once. The fact was, as I learned iater, that Colt gave orders to Inspector Flynn to arrive half an hour late, so that he might have time to begin his inquiry. Closing the door behind me, I crossed the wide expanse of the living-room floor. In one of the easy-chairs by the fireplace sat Doctor Hugh Baldwin, smoking a cigarette. His bag lay between his feet. The physician’s alert gaze searched the fire and ashes, in quest of what, only he could have revealed. Standing between the windows, his hands folded at his thighs, was Chung, his great and ugly face a little to one side, the baldness of his enormous crown gleaming under a suspended lamp. Neither man seemed to notice me as I opened the front door and strode to the head of the iron staircase. There I encountered Lieutenant Fallon. “I saw the doctor go in,” was Fallon’s greeting, “but the chief sent word that everything was oke and told me not to stir from here until I was relieved. What the deuce is happening in there?” When I enlightened Fallon, the look of demoralized astonishment on that honest Irish face was beyond all art. “By gosh! It couldn’t have been done by anybody getting into the room,” he blurted. “Nobody could get by me or these boys of mine, and there’s no such thing as secret doorways in this joint. There is something awful funny about all this, Mr. Abbot! Tell the chief I’ll report back to him in five minutes.” Down the iron staircase I raced, and through the dim corridor to the lift, thence down to the deserted lobby, I found that Lowell Courtleigh, which was actually the name of the sleepy elevator operator, was in sole charge of the premises until morning. Here was a chance to do a little sleuthing on my own account. “Did you see Miss Quires go out tonight?” I asked, after relaying Colt’s orders to him. “No, I come on at twelve o’clock —but I seen her come in!” “You saw what?” The shocking impact of the elevator boy’s unexpected announcement nearly made me gasp the words. Christine Quires had come home! When? Where was she now? A hundred questions crowded to my tongue, clamoring for an answer. But I had to pretend only a casual interest th this astounding information. “Yon are positive you saw Miss Quires come in?” I repeated. “Yeah—l saw her come in.” “About what, time?” "Around fifteen minutes after twelve—soon after the New Year whistles blew.”
