This Is the story of a rose. A red ra-e and a silver dres.s that altered the destiny of Central Kurope. Simple things, you'll say, to wield such power. How could a fragrant, perishable rose or a bit of cloth do such things? Turn to your history books, gentle reader. Turn back to those halcyon times before that lateful day at Sarajevo. To most of us, the name of Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria . alls up a picture of a benign, portly gentleman with sparse white hair and a flowing, carefully-combed white beard. Surely this is not a romantic figure. But hold. Francis Joseph was not always old; his hair was not alwajs thinning and white. Nor was Austria always a country beset with the strife and woes that are its lot today. There was a day when Austria was a happy land — one of the most powerful nations on the European continent. Those were the days, too, when Francis Joseph was younger, when his hair was brown and his eyes sparkled, when thoughts of romance and high adventure raced through his mind and when the sight of a pretty ankle Bet his pulses thumping. It was in these days that the red rose and the cloth of silver dress were so vll-important. In 1856 Francis Joseph ruled the Austrian Empire under the domineering hand of his mother, the

Leopold remounted and dashed along the road to the castle, whilo ’Cissy continued hastily on her way to her father. "Good morning, Cissy! Where's my breakfast?" Duke Max shouted. “Ill the first place,” said Cissy swiftly, "Mother wants you to have breakfast at home. In the second place, something terrible has happened and you’ve got to do something about it at once.” “Whoa!” said Max. "What’s the excitement?” "In a few minutes the whole Austrian Empire is going to walk right into your house and take Helena off to marry the Emperor.” “What’s so terrible about that'”' asked the Duke. “You sound ns if he’s going lo be married off to a ditch digger." "But what about Poldi?” persis*ed Cissy. "He's been racing Uie messenger from court. lie's waiting for us at home.” "Poldi? Oh, yes. Of course. Poor boy. It's going to be a pretty hard blow for him." Max shook his head. "Father, we can't le' this happen. You're not going to let your daughter marry a man she’s not in love with.” "Why — uh — certainly not,” said Max. "Your aunt Is not going to run my household." said Mux with soma heat, as he and Cissy started hack to the castle. "She can do what she likes with Austria — and she docs! She made her son Emperor - but she’s not going to make your

Dowager Empress Sofia. A stern, lorbidding woman, tin? Empress kept her twenty-six-year-old son well in cheek and jealously guarded him Irom all contact with the world. All important state and domestic decisions were made by Sofia, the king lumsslf being just a handsome figurehead. So it was no surprise to him to learn that Ins mother had just selected the future Empress of Austria and, incidentally, his bride, without consulting him. T he fortunate girl was to be Princess Helena, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Bavaria, Sofia’s bro-ther-in-law and sister respectively. Sofia and the Duke had been at loggerheads for years, and the two families saw little of each o'her. The Dowager Empress and Duchess Ltulse, her social-climbing sister, i ad cooked up the plan between

them.

A messenger, Colonel von Krmpeu of the Kings Dragoons, v.u: oven now en route to Bavaria to bring the official tidings lo Helena. H s trip was being at.ended by ua1*ruinate delayu, however, because Count Palfi, young Captain of Die King's Guards, was beating liv colonel's carriage to every v/uy-sta-tion, and was taking the fr h horseu In an effort to reach Helena bcfoie the colonel arrived v, ith ibi news.

The excellent picture at the left shows the two heads of General Motors corporation, William 8. Knudsen, executive vice president, and Alfred P. Sloan, Jr , president, at a moment when the present automobile labor crisis was far from their minds. Both are in Detroit in an attempt to avoid a general strike, threatened by the United Automobile Workers of America. Donaldson Brown, right, chairman of the G-M finance committee, is reported to be one of the • aggressive advocates of the corporation s anti-union stand.

Labor Crisis Centers Around Two Veterans

Two veteran leaders in the field of union activities are focal points in the impending struggle by organized labor for a greater share in tbe profits of Industry. George Berry, president of the International Union of Printing Pressmen, has held that position for 29 years. He is confidential adviser to the president on labor matters and may be en-

listed as "middleman" if the C. I. O. and A. F. of L. fetid comes to a showdown. John L. Lewis, as president of the United Mine Workers and head of the C. 1. O , Is the "man of tbe hour" whose influence on the fate of labor in congress and in the field is incalculable. First "skirmish’’ in the labor struggle is being waged in the auto Industry, j

Back at the castle Max welcoirw d Poldi warmly and told him he could marry Helena with his blessing a. The Duchess overheard this, and icily invited Max into the next room. "Don’t you thin!;," said Louise sarcastically, "that you ought to consult me before showering your blessings on anyone who happens to be here?" Max nervously filled his pipe. "Now, Louise, Poldi is a splendid young lellow —” "Suppose I tell you,” pointed out Louise, "that I expect Helena to be Empress of Austria?” "1 don’t want to have anything to do with the Austrian Uour-i" exclaimed Mux vehemently.
