If some old fashioned hot weather is wliat Second street needs to iron it out, it ought to be perfect after this week. President Hoover will take a twenty per cent cut in his salary. Fair enough but its not such a . brave act when a fellow is drawing down $75,000 per year. The Indianapolis Star is trying to make a hit by referring to the Democratic vice-presidential candidate as "Squander" Garner. They can probably change that in a few days to “Squander” Hoover. The president now says he will sign the new two billion dollar bill, even if it includes the features he objected to in the Garner bill. Sure he will. Its under a different name. Suppose the president would j stoop to playing polities? They are trying to check the flow ot bills In the legislature but so far all efforts have failed. Each day when the roll is called, the boys poll fresh papers from their pockets, designed to either save the stale. It is c aimed the bread line in America would total 21,000 miles it gathered in one locality. That's something for Mr. Mills and Mr. Hurley to use as p subject in the lectures they are now giving over the country. Now comes word that the "ace in the hole” for those who are seeking to detract attention from the real tax relief measures in the * special session, is a scheme to , Hood the house and senate with so * many petty measures, that the law * makers will get lo3t in the shuffle. We hope the home loan bank bill becomes a law and that it is at good as the advance claims made for" it. Eventually some such method will have to be provided, .-.o why not now? We are surprised that the administration however, can stand for such an unsound measure. Swimming is fine sport these excessive y warm days but remember to be careful.

They would do better !) j staying on the Job and trying to jj! work out of the hole (he adminisI) lUaiou Is in. The Democratic leaders in caucus this week, worked out a plan of proceed ure for special session, which if followed would convince the voting public that they are in earnest in their desire to reduce expenditures and cost of government. Now the plan is fine but it won’t be worth the effort if it isn't * J carried out. Snap it through and , quit and you will have the everlasting thanks of a depressed constituency. * i There is a grave danger of the , special session repeating their ree- , ord of 1931 when they started off well, played horse several weeks and then tried to rush through ; every measure at the close. That’s . not good for the state. We hope Governor Leslie issues notice that he will not receive bills after a certain day and makes it stick. That will produce better consideration and save the wild scenes of the last session. Calvin Coolidge, ex-president of the United States, is out in favor ol a general sales tax. Now lie is talking real sense. By that plan every person pays in proportion to j Iris earning and his spending. It 1 will be felt less than any other form of taxation. In this state right : 1 now we are paying five cents a gallon for gasoline. That's about a twenty-five per cent levy but we don't hear many complaints about it. Think what a five per cent tax would produce, estimated on the total business done in this country in a normal year. It would be far better than a direct federal tax with all its complications and thats about the only source left other than the sales tax. o * RADIO PROGRAM 1 • « Saturday': 5 Best Radio Features Copyright, 1932. by UP.

By HARRISON CARROLL t Coprrtttit. 1932. King Features Syndicate.

For some reason—details are; scarce as yet—Gloria has finally consented to the saU: of this story and David Selz.nck has laid R-K-O’s j money on the line. If you can be-1 lieve reports, however, what Gloria , did not know was that “Rockabye” j would be given to Connie Bennett. Unless some unexpected hitch develops, the picture will go into production immediately. This, of course, means that the Adela Rogers Hyland story for Connie will be postponed. Radio was having a little trouble with the finish of it, and, rather than spend more time in preparation, decided to make the switch. There also is a last minute rush for a new leading man. Joel McCrea, who was to have played opposite Connie, will not fit in the new picture. Attempts were made to borrow George Brent to replace him. but the deal fell through. Director George Fitzmaurice is now scouring the film colony for a suitable leading man. “Rockabye” lest you forget, is an unproduced play by Lucin Bronder. The heroine, as in Connie’s last picture, is an actress. For honest criticism they’ll cite you Groucho Marx’3 reply to a friend, who asked his opinion of a new show. “It’s rotten,” began Groucho. “Well," parried phe friend, ‘‘it really should be seen in a small house.” “Yeah,” flipped Groucho. “well I

He jicmained faithful and true until (death tailed him to his eternal ; home. ; He was unassuming in all his i ways, possessed a cheerful dispoi sit ion, made friends easily and had ; the fine art of holding these friendj ships. We found him the same I every day. Without question he v as a good father and took a great deal of interest in his home and i family.

SYNOPSIS Lota Carewe, “The Night Club ! Lady”, and her guest, Christine Quire*, are mysteriously murdered in the former's apartment. Scorjbobs were the iu * ruments of deat h. The police eunpect Guy Everett, the last person to see Christine alive. Lola had blackmailed Everett. He, however, claims that Christine disj revered a plot to kill Lola and feared for her own life because of her knowledge. Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt learns that a young ; Parts bank clerk, named Basil Boucher, loved Lola. After robbing a hank to bny her a ruby. Basil disappeared. His parents sold medical laboratory specimens. Mrs. Carewe, Lola's mother, became hysterical at the mention of Basil, calling her daughter a beast and saying Lola eerrr loved him. Edgar Quires, Christine's brother, left his Rochester home for New York following the receipt of a telegram the day of the ■ orders. Christine was to have inherited wealth shortly. Suspicion line points to Dr. Hugh Baldwin when it is disclosed that he purchased scorpions. He had stated heart failure caused the deaths. Colt. | calling to question Baldwin, finds him dead — from a scorpion bite! Mrs. Baldwin reveals that she knew her husband was involved with Lola.

CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO A MOMENT later she was gone. Instantly Colt turned to Marshall. "You have been tailing Doctor Baldwin?” “Yes, Mr. Commissioner.” “What have you got to report?” “Very little, sir. Lieutenant Falj lon put me on the job when the doctor left here last night. He got down the elevator in front of me and I was afraid I’d missed him but the elevator operator told me he had got off at the second floor where his office was. So I come back to the second floor and prowled around a bit. There was a light in the office. I could see it through the glass pane, so I pretended to be a drunk and rapped on the door. And I asked the doc if he could give me something to straighten me out before I went home to the wife. When he come to the door, he looked awful mad. He had a wild look in his eyes and his hands were shaking. And he told me to get the hell out of here. So I thought that was all right. “I beat it downstairs with Deems, that’s my partner, and I put him on the sen-ants’ entrance. There is only the two ways you can get out • of this joint, the front door or the sen-ants’ entrance. So then 1 went over and saw the superintendent of the house across the street and he fixed me up with this uniform. So I stands there all morning and about ten o’clock the doc came out. I blew the whistle — Baldwin thought I was calling a cab but my partner knew it was a signal, so Deemß come and he began to tail the doc. Pretty soon I see Deems bringing the doc back, and I asks him where he went. “Well, he has a pretty funny story to tell. The doc went to the corner and got in a cab and Deems! in another cab right after him. I They drove across town, through I the transverse, under Central Park and over to West End Avenue to an apartment house on the comer of Seventy-second Street. But Baldwin didn’t go in. He got out of the cab, and meets a man, a little darkcomplexioned fellow. The man gave I him a box and the doc gave him some money. Then he gets back into the j cab and drives back to the corner of Third Avenue where he gets out o* the cab and walks over here.” , ’•You can get out of that uniform i now, said Colt, whan the detective i came to a full pause. , Marshall clicked hi a heels to- i gether, t

; allV ele* In: ill votes Mr “it has senators and represen aelectoral votes. As the nitional campaign *p» .'poaches, political leaders are sean- | lung the new alignment with anxious eyes. For Ihe firs, tme In I j-. years the shift in the center of l (population from the old states to I me new, from city to farm, will be | fully reflected. 'I rite Pacific coast gains 10 new ' j congressmen and 10 additional pre- . i sidential elect-c under the new lineup The kev state of California, ,! normally Republican, gains nine of these added votes. The state of Washington gains one. A uiigHity political battle is in pr-spect to sej cure the allegiance of the Pacific , coast voters. ■ | other important shifts find Mich- ■! tgan also normally Republican. with four additional congressmen. Democratic Texas gains three. New 1 1 York. New Jersey and Ohio, always ■ i question marks in a presidential .! year, each add two to their already , large electoral vote. . i Loses in representation are pretty 'evenly distributed in a geograph--1 leal and partisan way. , 1 Missouri is tue greatest loser.

I “Don’t you need me any further, 'chief?” “Need you any further? You made a mess of your job, Marshall. If you had stuck with Deems, one 'of "you could have followed the Tittle dark man and the other kept after Baldwin. You both should be demoted to patrolmen and sent to Staten Island for this. Now get out of that uniform and report back at your station house. No wonder the newspapers say the police don’t know their business.” j When the crestfallen Marshall i had left the apartment, Colt went (to the telephone and called Plaza ! 3-73625, the apartment of Lola Cairewe. While he was waiting, he j remarked to me that the small dark man was undoubtedly the Spanish (dealer who had sold Baldwin the (insects. A moment later he was ! talking to Inspector Flynn, who had told Colt he would meet hjm there. In a few brisk sentences, Colt broke the news to the Inspector. Even though 1 was unable to listen in, I could hear the grunt of surprise from the Assistant Chief Inspector when he learned of the 'third tragedy. He promised to put a call through to Headquarters at ! once for Multooler and the other department agencies. But to this Colt demurred. “Get Multooler,” he sanctioned,

“but keep the rest away for a while—until we know what we are looking for.” "Okay, chief. Do you want me down there?” Colt reflected for a moment and then delayed his answer as he asked: “Is Mrs. Carcwe awake?” “Not yet.” “You are sure she is perfectly all right?” “Sleeping sound as a dollar, sir, so are they all, the maid and the butler, each in a separate room, snoring in a different key.” Colt’s brows were still furrowed. “It sounds silly, I suppose,” he reflected aloud, "but I am afraid to let you out of that house, Flynn. We’ve had three sudden deaths since we came into this case—we’ve got to see that Mrs. Carewe is protected.” 111 stick on the job until 1 hear from you.” “All right.” As he hung up the receiver, Colt turned again to the private office ! w ’here lay the body of Doctor BaldI "f* n - Then he began his slow, meI ticulous search. At first glance, he i *°und nothing extraordinary. The i office was like the ordinary conI saltation room of any successful i Physician in a modern building. ! I here was neither taste nor distinction in its equipment. It was all as utilitarian and efficient as any unimaginative office suply firm could make it, with sectional bookcases steel waste basket, and a steel desk. .i Th ,° ,? nly note in all the dull, twentieth-century stream me atmosphere of the place was the distorteu question mark of a b °ww t ?
