DAVIS IS READY TO STEP DOWN AS LABOR HEAD Finishes 9-fear Service March 4 as Secretary Three Terms. Bw Seripps-Haward Newspaper .Winner WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—The second change in President Hoover's cabinet will occur March 4, when Labor Secretary James J Davis retires after nine years of continuous service in the same post under three Presidents. President Hoover has reached no decision on Davis’ successor, al-

though William N. Doak. vicepresident. of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, has been strongly recommended. Doak was mentioned a year ago, but because union labor leaders were unable to agree, President Hoover took no action at that time.

J, J, Davis

The decision to retain Secretary Davis, who was chosen originally by the late President Harding, was reached by President Hoover just a few days before his inauguration last. March 4. When newspaper men were told of the Presidentelect’s decision, his spokesmen said •’this appointment is for one year, and one year only.” A few days later when official announcement of the cabinet was made, an asterisk appeared opposite Davis' name, and there was a footnote which read: “This appointment is for one year from March 4." In administration circles today, It was learned that the President’s decision of a year ago has not been changed. Secretary Davis, In anticipation of his retirement from the cabinet, now is launching a campaign for nomination as Governor of Pennsylvania. Thus far he has failed to obtain the support of any of the big-time Pennsylvania political leaders, while W. L. Mellon, Senators Reed and Grundy and Governor Fisher, who will dictate the nomination, appear to be definitely opposed to Davis’ candidacy. Davis is reported to have reached an agreement with former Senatorelect William S. Vare, who was refused admission to the senate, whereby the two will run on a joint ticket. Vare would conduct a “vindication” campaign to get back in the senate. City Goes in for Milk MEMPHIS.

BEGIN HrRE TODAY JUDITH CAMERON, typist In a New York publishing office, attracts the ln- ! terest of ARTHUR KNIGHT, her em- ! pioyer. Knight is a reserved widower, lonely since his daughter. TONY. 18. and ■on. JUNIOR. 18. spend most of their tune wav from home. Judith fascinates Knight. He takes her to dinners and concerts. At the end of a whirlwind courtship Knight asks Judith to marrv him and she accepts. The next evening she is nervous and distracted and tells him she has something to conHe laughs and refuses to listen. Th*v pian a six weeks' honeymoon in Beri muda. . , , , _ ' The ocean voyage and arrival in Hami llton harbor arc glamorous events for the young bride. She and Arthur swim and golf and enjoy all the islands' outdoor sports. Arthur tells Judith he is going to make her care for him as he cares for her. , . One evening during the dancing Judith pleads a headache and goes to her room. Knight, stirred by a wave of Jealousy, follows. He has Just arrived when there .s a knock at the door. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER EIGHT \ BELLBOY in blue uniform and /\ bra.s,s buttons stood in the enunce way as Knight pulled the door back. "A message for you, sir,” he said. Knight frowned, took the yellow envelope which che youth held forward and handed him a coin. Judith had arisen and came forty ard anxiously. She was looking | very lovely In her rose and pink j draperies. She did not speak, but ; stood waiting, concern written plainly on face, as her husband tore open the envelope and studied the cabelgram. He must have read it through twice. “Judith,” he said then., glancing ! up quickly, “I’ve got to get back to New York!” His words clicked with decision. “Business?” Knight shook his head. -No—it’s Tony. Read it.” He thrust the yellow sheet of paper toward her and Judith’s fingers closed over it. Something had caught at her heart—it seemed as though the heart, had stopped beating—at mention of Tony’s name. The jumble of words was meaningless, but finally they straightened out into sentences. Then Judith understood. The message had been sent to Knight’s business address in New York and there forwarded. It read: “Sailing tonight on Paris. Meet me in New York Tuesday. Helena tried to boss me too much. Your loving daughter prefers you to Europe. Much, much love. TONY.” “Oh!” said Judith. It was the only thing she seemed able to say. Arthur crumpled the envelope ' which he was still holding, and shot J t h<* ball of paper into a basket. He shook his head draearily. “Tony’s been up to mischief!” he sighed. “Helena’s my sister. She was supposed to chaperon Tony during a year on the continent. Lord knows what they’ve rowed about! “Well, it never would do to leave Tony Knight to her own devices in j a mood like this! Judith—much as 11 hate to give this all up—we’ve got 1 to go back.”

JUDITH came nearer, brushing her fingers softly through the hair above his temple. "Yes. of course, ’’ she said simply. “I’ll—l’ll be glad to meet Tony.” “Oh. you’ll love her. Everybody loves Tony. Never been able to rei fuse her anything in the world myself,” he mused. “I know I’ve 'spoiled her—but I couldn't help it! “Well—let’s see, if we take the boat here Saturday we’ll be home Monday morning. >Guess that’ll g.ve us time to get scrubbed up and meet the Paris when it docks.’ He was smiling brightly. Judith felt that not for the world could she let him know the trepidation and despair which had settled over her. She went back to the dressing table and sat with her back toward him. Five short days and she was to stand face to face with Tony Knight! Two days more and they would turn their backs on this paradise, these islands of turquoise and gold. The honeymoon—their beautiful, utterly utterly perfect honeymoon—would be ended. Ahead would be New York. Judith closed her eyes and caught her hands together as though in agonized, silent prayer, A minute later she turned about gaily to say to her husband: “Arent you going to send a reply?” Knight shook his head negatively. “No,” he said. “Let her worry a bit. It’ll be good for her. Don’t you see I can’t give in? Helena must have been right, of course. The only time in the world I can discipline Tony is when she’s away from me. No—l won’t answer her!” Again apprehensions—chill and forbidding—sw'ept over Judith. She crept closer to her husband. “Arthur,” she said softly. “Say you love me—” Knight’s arm slipped about his ' lovely young wife. Warm, lingering 1 kisses touched her forehead, her j golden hair and then swiftly, hotly, Ihe found her lips. Each of them—iin that long, long caress—forgot i about Tony. MORNING brought the same bright sunshine, the same zestI ful breezes and beckoning sports of • preceding days, but somehow every- ! thing seemed changed. I Judith and Arthur had breakfast in their rooms, Judith locking rather j like a huge chrysanthemum in her dainty ruffled bed jacket. Arthur i lolled indolently in a striped dressI ing gown. i Neither spoke of Tony’s message. Both were thinking of it. Finally Arthur suggested he should be dressing and getting over to Hamilton. “Two or three little errands I 1 want to take care of, dear. Anything I can do for you?” She told him there was nothing. Judith was quite willing to remain inside while he was absent. She knew steamer arrangements for their return were the “two or three little errands.” After he had gone she dressed leisurely, taking particular care with every detail of her toilet. Judith had scorned the attentions of a perI sonal maid. She had no intention of subjectI ing herself to such a servant’s disj dain. But she had found it was ! possible to stretch the process of ; dressing from half an hour (at the same time watching toaster and coffee pot) to three times that long. Results easily justified the longer process. When Knight returned he found ! her in a short white linen frock, white shoes’ and hose, a colorful silk scarf about her shoulders. He told her they would take the boat sailing next, morning. “It’s our last day, Judith.” he added, trying to be casually cheerful. "It ought to be the best yet! What’s .the program?’ ’ j She decided on a long drive along one of the interior roads. It brought them back to the hotel late for lunch, but with good appetites. After that they changed and went to the beach for their daily swim. In the evening instead of dancing they took one of the white-w r inged sailboats and floated far down the > harbor. Lights from the town and i remote cottages played about like j fireflies. j “Arthur,” Judith spoke softly, ! “it’s been heavenly!”

He brushed her hair with a kiss without replying. The moon, high overhead, rode in clouds—a pale, still lady revealing only a portion of her charms. The water, lapping in constant monotony, seemed very deep and black. ft was good to feel Arthur’s arm, so close and protecting, Judith thought. ' When at last they decided to go to their rooms she told herself the day had been as perfect, certainly, as any last day can ever be. nett THERE was bustie and stir next morning, getting the luggage off to the boat, saying farewells and listening to them, trying to remember where this was and what had become of that, finally stepping into the quaint carriage for the last slow ride to the docks, trying to drink in all the riotous, luxuriance of blossoms and trees and shrubbery and to paint them in memory against a background of sky and sea. Judith Knight felt that she must remember every blessed detail of that picturesque landscape. She must, she must! And though there were wrenchings at heart to leave it all behind a.nd walk up the gangplank, still the good ship was familiar, too,, and seemed to offer friendly greeting. There were men and women about with whom they had become acquainted at the hotel.

MENTAL TWIST MARITAL BLOCK Neucotics Show Tendency Toward Few Children. It if Science Servile WASHINGTON, Jan 10.—The encouraging report that men and women suffering from serious mental maladies are not as likely to raise families as normal persons, has been brought to the American Statistical Association by Dr. Neil A. Dayton, director research of the Massachusetts state department of mental diseases. Dr. Dayton has made the first comprehensive survey of the marriages, divorces and size of families produced by patients suffering from psychoses, that is, such diseases as dementia praecox, manic depressive psychosis, general paralysis of the insane, and alcoholic psychosis. Twelve thousand families of patients discharged from Massachusetts state hospitals during the past twelve years were studied. Something in the biological makeup of the individual with mental disease interferes with his marrying, Dr. Dayton explained. Among those who do establish homes, the same mental twists interfere with the maintenance of a permanent household. The divorce rate is five times as high among the individuals studied as it is among the normal population. Those psychotic Individuals who do reproduce tend to have smaller families than are found In the normal population. Sterility is 3 per cent higher among the psychotic patients who marry than among normal individuals. The figures on two generations obtained by Dr. Dayton indicate in that mental disease does not tend to stimulate a desire to marry and rear children, but on the contrary. it blocks those desires.

As the band struck up its spirited music and the ship eased gradually seaward, Judith and Arthur Knight were both at the railing waving and joining in the cheers of departure. The six weeks’ honeymoon had shrunk to only one. That first afternoon they spent on the sun deck joining in ship tennis and shuttleboard at which Judith made very, very bad scores so that Arthur jeered at her. To make up for this he had to—buy her very special cakes at teatime. Judith seemed overwrought with nervous energy. She wanted to be doing something every minute. Bridge was too quiet for her and so they danced after dinner. She wore her black gown and was easily the most attractive woman present. Partners flocked about her. At 11 o'clock she said she had had enough of dancing. “But it’s a fine night.” Arthur protested. “Too fine to spend inside a stateroom.” They wandered up to the top deck. In a nook sheltered by lifeboats they found deck chairs. Dull and insistent came the ocean’s roar and the sound of churning spray. The moon’s light cast a dripping, golden path across the water. The two sat silent for a time. Judith's heart was beating rapidly. There were things she wanted to

PUPILS GET MORE OUT OF PICTURES

Many Able to Interpret Cartoons in National History Test. Bv Times Special NEW YORK, Jan. 10.—Evidence that the average high school pupil depends more upon news pictures than upon reading for his knowledge of current affairs is contained In the completed tabulation of 3,100 uniform examination papers from schools in all parts of the country. The papers made up the ninth annual current history test conducted by the Review of Reviews magazine with the co-operation of the schools. Many of the pupils who failed to answer written questions on farm relief and other political topics were able to give an approximate interpretation of cartoons bearing on the same subjects. Many who displayed a surprising lack of knowledge of geography where the questions were written were able to identify foreign scenes in photographs. A “group of photographs of ten widely known figures indicated that President Hoover’s is the face best known to the school boy or girl, although an occasional pupil was unable to identify even the chief executive. Thomas Edison and John D. Rockefeller were in second and third places among those most easily identified. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, the only woman in the group, was identified by less than 20 per cent of the students. Frequently, she was mistaken for Helen Wills, and occasionally for Mrs. Gann. The photographic tests also indicate that the city student, who has access to the more profusely illus-

ask Arthur Knight and which she dared not. She wanted to know things of w r hich he had never spoken. She could these confidences. Many times Judith had wondered about that first Mrs. Knight, who was Tony’s mother. Arthur had mentioned her but once, and then in a way to repel questioning. Judith felt a natural rfespect for privacy. There was another, more powerful seal upon her tongue. Judith Knight could not ask questions because she herself refused to answer them. And yet so much that she must know about Tony Knight depended upon the sort of woman the girl’s mother had been. Judith wanted to ask questions. Instead she pressed Arthur’s hard firmly. The man spoke, proving that their minds followed similar channels. “It’s going to be —a trifle awkward,” he said, hesitatingly. “Perhaps after all I should have written Tony and Junior about our m&rriage.” “Perhaps,” Judith echoed. Suddenly she clung to him fiercely. “Arthur,” she cried, “Arthur—you do believe in me, don’t you?” In the dim light the man could read the measureless terror of those olue ?yes. (To Be Continued)

MISSOURIAN, 118, HAS SIMPLE LIFE FORMULA ‘Uncle Tommy’ Kemp Does as He Pleases, But Bothers None. BY WILLIAM L. COLLINS United Press Staff Correspondent POPLAR BLUFF, Mo., Jan. 10.— “Uncle Tommy” Kemp likes to remember when women used “to wear dresses.” “Nowadays they wear handkerchiefs sewed together, or something not much bigger than handkerchiefs.” he said. And Uncle Tommy is rather qualified to reminesce as he is looking forward to celebrating his 119th birthday next September. Uncle Tommy attributes his longevity to his philosophy of life, which he brought to Missouri with him from Tennessee, seventy years, ago —eat what you want, drink what you want, and do as you please so long as it does not intrude on the rights of your fellow men. “I just live a normal life,” Kemp

When I coifid get it I used to drink considerable whisky, too.” Uncle Tommy can’t find any j glasses which improve his vision, and consequently doesn’t wear any. He does use a cane, but not because ! he is feeble. He broke his hip a few years ago, ninety-eight to be exact, when he was traveling by stage coach to see his girl and the coach tipped over, rolling down a Tennessee hill. Uncle. Tommy owns and main- : tains a small farm. “It gives me ! something to do." he said, "and I I would die of lonesomeness if I I should quit work altogether. “You know, there is no telling how long I will live and I am going to keep preparing for the future.
