The Full Employment Bill, for which Senators Capehart and Willis voted, was so mangled by republican Senator Taft and other anti-labor senators, that as passed by the Senate it

is no more than a scrap of paper. "It is to be hoped, said Democratic Chairman Fred F. Bays yesterday, "that loyal Democrats of the House will rally behind President Truman to restore the essential provisions of this bill. "The whole significance of the bill lay in its clear statement of the thesis that every able American has the right to work, and that it is the responsibility of the government, should private enterprise fail, to 'assure' America's working

k citizens this right. It never was expected that the bill itself would abolish unemployment; but all of the forward-looking people in the country regarded it a a definite step f orward,

toward building a more prosperous society, m that it would give an opportunity to do something more than just talk about the evils of unemployment." And Mr. Bays quoted Sentator O'Mahoney '(D., Wyo), who said recently:

The war cost us $350 billions. But from the period Irom

1929 to 1941, depression cost business $355 billions in sales;

workers $175 billions in wages; corporations $69 billions in

tprof its ; farmers $25 billions in markets." 1 The Full Employment Bill was designed to head off another even greater depression by encouraging private enterprise to branch out without fear of loss and workers to live and work without fear of joblessness. In other words, it was meant o be a stabilizing influence a safe anchor to windward against recurring depression. The Republican amendments to this Act destroy every

worth-while aspect of the bill. Instead of "guaranteeing the right to work," it now says Americans are "entitled to opportunity" to work. It hamstrings the government's share in providing opportunity, as necessity might arise, by stipulating that the goal of full employment be "consistent with government obligations."- Obligations to whom? not, apparently, to the workers'. Finally, it hitches the whole thing ' to a yearly tax plan1 and a balanced budget, which ; is : the final Republican trade-mark." Balancing the budget is a thing desired by 'everybody. But the short-sighted view is to put it above the general prosperity of the nation; for only a prosperous, nation can balance its budget. : It certainly won't help to accumulate another $600 billion . debt, to add to what we now owe $600 billion beinar as Sen-

ator O'Mahoney in his exhaustive report quoted above, gives as the total cost to the people of the United States, of. the

t Jast depression.

.C CHAPTER :Xmi:.; : " They were up eaTly,. and breakV Mted ;gaily ibeside, a little stream earby. on some afpod they had purchased the night before. .'It was fun i)reakfastinjr together, and comfortablydomestic ;ven' withbut' .jhe added touch of Casanova's presence. They discusSed Desdeniona Lpve and the-' lion-tartier, -gain,1-and 'the Evergreens, : and ? wondered where they were. . But they made no further mention of their own problemi or what the immediate future held 'for either ; of them.-' If '. they could have looked ahead'a bit, they might not have felt so carefree."'- ,.' ' The South Carolina morning was lovely, 'however, .and their spirits gay1 when the'y.-took to the road again. The green doubie-decker bus, heading ior an ostensible "Washington Square,", proceeded south. . Inevitably, ' although more amiably, they took up. their usual quarrel which' both- enjoyed more than either cared to admit, Suddenly Tony jammed on the brakes. . So engrossed had he become in their spirited discussion of sharing the wealth that he had failed to notice man standing in the road; a driver's sixth-sense pulled him up, rather than the hitchhiker's jerking thumb of interrogation. As the bus rumbled to a stop, both Tony and Ginger spoke as one. "Mr. Briggs!""Ah the Admiral's. barge!" exclaimed the nautical Mr.- Briggs. They had not seen' him since the night before last. . . . . ';' His yachting cap was still tilted at a rakish angle, and as he swayed on his land-legs it could be seen that he was as Urtfnk as ever if hot more so. , The. jug which he had been -carrying when they first saw him, was still in his hand, apparently. A "He's still plastered!" said Tony, grinning.. "And hasn't finished his jugyet unless it's re-filled." "That's not a jug!" cried Ginger. "It's ' Gertrude I Opn ; the door, quick!" . ' ; .'... V . Tony !' opend . the door , and, as JBriggs, climbed aboard, he saw that the ;nautical .hitchhiker, In truth; carried' Desdemona Love's portable goldfish, bowl in .his left hand. This. he;Set down on the nearest seat, with great, care, ;'then';found thereat he hadheen; originally occupying, . and fumbled around,' underneath..-' . '"What f aire .'" you looking " for?" asked'Tony.- '' -,..' - -' ' ' v "Where1 did -you get Gertrude?". Giriger dieroanded. ;. .'-'- . ' Mr.' Briggs grinned .owlisKly'i at them ' bothj' as he. drew his brown jugf'fronVtirider the'seat;"ahd pattedft affectionately with relief:'.' -. ;"Here it ish," said Mr. Briggs. "I took the fishbowl. by. mishtake. Imagine .iny . surprise when I almost swallowed the fish." ' '. . '. , "Did you?" asked Ginger, anxiously.rwith a glance at' the bowl. A

glimpse' of Gertrude reassured her.1

"Uourse - not,"- saw Jttr. ; Unggs,

severely. 1 "I never' take shea-food .when I'm drinking." ' . , "Where did you disappear to?" asked Tony; " ' " "I've been trying to find my boat. Have you sheen it? Itsh white, with black - funnels named ''the Little Casino." He lovinglv uHcoiked the jiig.'Hava a .libationf' '.. ' Without waiting for'a reply, he tilted the; jug arid ; drank deeply. Then delicately wiped his -lips. ,- ; ; "Perhapsh -I never told you," said Mr. Briggs, pensively. "But I'm an orphan." ' : "So's Gertrude, .now," aid Tony, putting the bus into high again. And grinned at Ginger. "Thash too bad," said Mr. Briggs. And yawned. "If you sight my ship off the starboard bow, wake me up." . He closed his eyes, and gently fell asieep. ... ; Tony and Ginger looked at. each other and laughed. 1 "Do you suppose he really has a yacht?" ' "Planning to marry him when you've divorced me?" chuckled Tony. "That drunk is lucky if he owns a row-boat. I wonder if his sanitarium knows he's gone." "Anyway, I'm glad lie brought Gertrude back," said Ginger. Casanova, watching the tropical fish from his usual seatiacross the aisle, was also glad. Gertrude, uneasily aware of the Thomas-cat's unblinking feline regard, was not so sure. Casanova yawned, displaying his teeth, and Gertrude was suddenly certain. For, through the distortion of her glass-walled home, Casanova suddenly reminded Gertrude Of nothing bo much as a dreaded Belonesox belizdinis, the sharp-toothed, ferocious tropical fish that feeds on live fish the gangster of the aquarium family. Gertrude, suddenly remembering her marital sins, wished she were somewhere else even back on the road with a pie-eyed hitchhiker.' ' They were bowling through Georgia, when the Law overtook the green bus for the third time. As usual,' the Law was on a motorcycle. As usual, too, he waved them to stop.The state trooper he was not a local officer; this time got off his machine and strolled over, to them, - examining . the bus with a curious eye.'1 '-' .".'Tony and. Ginger, looked at each other wonderingly, and with not a little apprehension. Experience had taught them that even a clear conscience was useless on this trip. One never knew what to expect next. "Are you Anthony Taylor, from New. York?"- - "That's - right," , said. Tony resignedly. "And this is my wife we've got a marriage certificate to prove it. And if you're looking for diamonds, you've signalled the wrong bus; you can search it, if you want to. The-only things we're carrying are. a tropical .fish, A cat,- arid a

drunk with delusions of grandeur."

The State trooper looked surprised. ' "I don't know what you're talking about," said he. "I've only got a message to give you." "If it's from the authorities asking us to get out of the state don't worry we're getting out as fast as we can get." . . "A kidder, eh?" said the trooper. "Well, suppose you call up the nearest State Precinct station and kid the Captain. That's my orders." "You want me to telephone your chief? What for?" Tony was astonished. "Search me," said the trooper. "All I know is that there's been a police radio broadcast throughout the state, to try to locate you. You'd better telephone the office, and find out." He gave them the telephone number and his name. "You'll find a phone in the first store you come to, down the road a piece. Tell the Captain I found you. Hope it's not bad news. Good luck." With a half-salute, he remounted his cycle, and was off, in the direction from which he had come. T(!ny and Ginger looked at eaer other. "What now?" "I can't imagine," said he, blankly. "At least, it's not a pinch oi that cop would have taken us in.' "Well, let's go and find out," she suggested. They found the store dc-n th road, and while Ginger waited ir the bus, Tony telephoned the poliq precinct number, and explained his identity. "What's up?" he demanded. "Now Ynvk- wsnt-s in cpt vnn nr

he telephone. Very urgent. Sayj

for' you to reverse the charges. 11 must be important, or they wouldn't have been able to locate you through, us. Want the number?" "Sure," said Tony. He thought instantly of his father, but the cldci Taylor was in Palm Beach. "Thanks very much." The State Police official gave hire the New York number, and Tony immediately afterward put in, the call through long distance. In a surprisingly short time, he was connected."Hello is this Taylor?" "Yes. Who's this?" "This is Ronny Rockaby," came the voice. "Do you know who I am?" Tony gave, a start of surprise, then grinned. "Sorry I never heard of you!" He heard a smothered exclamation. His grin widened." "This is the man you attacked Friday morning in front of Miss Drake's house. You know whom I mean!" "Oh, him! I owe you an apology, Rockaby." "For hitting me?" "No for not knocking your block clean off !" said Tony. (To be continued) Cwvrlcht bv I'olln Bank); Dlitribuled by King Features Sindlcite, Ir.e.

TWO ANGLES of San Francisco s tragic . triangle of a doctor, his wife and a married nurse have been closed by violent death as the prominent Bay area physician, Dr. John F. Mansf cldt, lower photo, missing since his wife, top photo, fired a fatal 'bullet into Mrs. Vana Martin, the nurse, was found, a suicide. Mrs. Mansfeldt is shown with her attorney, James Mclnness, as she heard the suicide news. An autopsy indicated the doctor had been dead since the day his distraught wife, Annie Irene, 45-year-old mother of three 'teen-aged children, drove to a hospital, announcing: "There's a dying woman in my car outside. I shot her." The doctor identified his wife, who had collapsed, and then vanished to be found four days later in his car parked along a lonely cliff road

overlooking sea. (International)
