GOVERNMENT TO • BUY SILVER TO RAISE PRICES I ’ (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) is oue-half the statutory price of $1.29 an ounce. It was established I by the President's requirement that I miners must consent to give the i government half of their silver when offering it for coinage. This -'surrender” was provided I tor by directing the mint to "de- | duct" 50 per cent ot the silver as "seigniorage” which is theoretically the difference between the cost ’ ot a mass ot bullion and the value as money of the pieces coined from ' it. The half surrendered to the government will be put in the treasury. The President’s action did not I

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE Clark came up to Patricia at >nce, explained that Julian had telephoned. Something had held him up in town. He would be late. Patricia had longed for Julian earlier. Now, with Clark, at her side, his absence seemed less important. She glanced at Marthe. Marthe glanced reflectively at her. “Have you been having a good time?” asked Clark at her elbow. “Miss March has been giving me a very good time,” said Patricia clearly. “I’ve loved every minute of it.” Her eyes and Marthe’s eyes held. | The gauntlet had been flung. It; was to be war to the knife. Julian arrived with dessert andcoffee. He did not bother to change. I Still in his dusty clothes from the city, he came to the table while his bags went upstairs. Patricia regarded him anxiously. No plate had been laid for him. That made no difference to Julian. After greeting them all, after pausing for a special word with Mrs. Tracy—he was a favorite of hers—he admitted.unashamed and unapologetically, , that he had not dined. “I should have dined in town. Somehow, I didn’t get around to it. I know I'm scandalously late but even if I'm late I’m hungry.” “Will you start with soup?” asked Mrs. Tracy, smiling, arranging that a plate be brought for him. “Is it cold?” “It’s cold.” “Then, I’ll start with soup,” he announced, dropping to his chair and adding, “Gosh, I’m hot.” After a survey of the table where conversation had necessarily been halted by his arrival, he said, “Women have all the best of it in weather like this. You girls look cool enough.” “Would you like to take off your coat?” inquired Marthe sweetly, “I might do that,” he said thoughtfully. A flash of appreciation lighted the table. Julian Haverholt kept on his coat. But, had he really desired to dine in his shirtsleeves, everyone knew that he would have done so. Patricia, puxzled, saw that they liked him for that. She envied him his courage and his conceit. Julian believed that under any circumstances he would be a welcome addition to any party. The girl saw that he was welcome. He became instantly the center of the group, as he was the center of every group to which he lent his presence. Everyone seemed willing to have it so. Everyone perhaps, except Clark. Clark finished his coffee, shoved back his chair, said rather brusquely, “It’s cooler on the verandah, I think. We might adjourn there.” His mother sent him a reproachful glance. “Mr. Haverholt isn’t ready, son.” "Don’t bother about me,” said Haverholt, generously. “I'll be all right. That is, if you, Mrs. Tracy will stay to keep me company.” She would. The others drifted away and left those two talking and laughing at the long, empty, candle - lighted table. Someone turned on the radio. Others rolled back the rugs. Instantly, the group on the verandah was dancing. Patricia was in Clark Tracy’s arms. Bending his handsome, fair head he said in a low deliberate voice: “I have been waiting for this all day.” Patricia glanced up. The light,

tie the value of silver definitely to gold. Neither did it close the door to I a larger use ot silver either as I coinage or as bullion backing for [currency if Mr. Roosevelt finds I larger use is desirable. The effect of the plan will be to pump approximately $15,500,000 of new silver coins into circulation I yearly to aid the administration in j reaching its objective of lifting I commodity prices to their 1926 ratio to buying power. In addition to its currency ex- | pansion effect, the plan is expected ■ to be a boom to western mining [ and stimulate the United States' : trade with foreign silver using and producing countries, principally : China.

' flippant retort died on her lips. She ■ said nothing at all. Her slippered i feet moved in unison with his feet, , her heart was pressed close to his i heart, her hair was brushing his : cheek. The sweet smooth' n.asic seemed to have spun a world, of ■ magic, a world where they were quite alone. I “I knew you would dance like ■ this,” he said. “How did you know?” asked Pa- ! tricia. There were a thousand ways in i which to stop him, a thousand rea- ■ sons why she should. Instead she • smiled deliberately into his fascii nated eyes. Deliberately she bor- : rowed a page from Julian HaverI holt’s book. Tonight she would do - as she pleased. Tonight was hers. . Her eyes welled" with mysterious ’ lights, shining and brilliant in her ’ small flushed face. Clark touched i his cheek to her blazing hair. ; “You are lovely,” he whispered. , “Am I?” she murmured. “The most beautiful woman I I have ever seen . . .” They finished the dance in silence. They stood for a moment and then i Patricia dropped her arms. “The music is over,” she said and laughed. She was intoxicated with her own ' triumph. It was as if Clark’s eyes had made her conscious of her beauty and her power. She was a thousand miles removed from the wretched girl of the afternoon. The others did not matter now. This moment mattered. Whatever happened, for this moment all of Clark's thoughts were for her. The . others, let them watch, let them speculate, let them make such inferences as they ch r .-,e, Patricia did not care. “More music,” called Clark to the group which had gathered at the radio. “Patricia and I want to : dance.” There was more music. They , danced again. Clark should be danc-

ing with Marthe. That only made Patricia's triumph sweeter. Let Marthe suffer as she had suffered. Let Marthe March learn that sometimes all girls were equal. “Break,” said Philip Gove, popping up at Clark’s elbow, a glint of determination in his eye. “No,” said Clark. “Yes,” said Phil. “Let Patricia decide,” they both said simultaneously. “I think,” hesitated Patricia, “I think I had better dance with PJiil.” Clark surrendered reluctantly. Patricia saw his reluctance, thrilled to it Phil saw too. As he whirled off with the girl, he muttered something beneath his breath. “I didn’t hear you, Phil,” said Patricia sweetly. “Maybe, you weren’t meant to hear.” “Go on, what did you say?” “Nothing only—” He looked at her with much embarrassment. He said, "It’s none of my business, really, but they're all talking.” “About what?” she queried. Her red lips curved. Her eyes were wide and innocent. Phil had been a willing victim to her spell from the moment he first had glimpsed her. Nothing could make him criticize this bewitching girl. “About what, Phil?” “If you don’t know, Patricia, 1 won’t tell you,” he replied stubbornly. Still he could not resist adding, “It's all Clark’s fault anyhow.” “What is Clark’s fault?” How she loved to say that name. How she loved to discuss this situation. Phil did not like it. He looked really unhappy. He muttered, “It isn't very pleasant for Marthe.” “No?” said Patricia. She continued serenely, “I guess Marthe can lake care of herself.” (To Be Continued) C 1932, by K«nn Feature* Syndicate. Inc.
