"A man’s home is .his castle,” said the jurist, “and the practice Os entering it in the course of prohibition enforcement without. legal procedure should be abolished.” , ?' ■ The national commission, the'judge said, already has determined that two major problems ■ require immediate settlement: one l|t the solution ftf prohibition enforcement, and the other is the. removal of “governmental lawlessness” and restoration of constitutional rights to citizens. - iu individual.” Judge M<<orm!< k prono jnced fanat-icisra one of the most serious enemies <T'i f>». hlbltlon.

Hanis of Georgia, one of , . the leading drvs. in the seriate,, was roused to imniet iate action and de- ’ mamled that the President remove the ! I.os Angeles jurist from the commls- , •ion. ■ "Judge McCormic k’s . Statement shows that Just I what 1 f'Jired* was being done is.being done,” said Senator Harris. “It really is an encouragement to vlo.ltstors of the law and it Shows Judge McCorniick to be such a partisan against the prohibition enforeeiuent law that, no matter how honest he may be. he is unfitted to hold office on. the commission. I’nlesa/Ahe com’nU'fsion stops its secret sessions and retoes out tn the open, its usefulness to such an extent that its report will be given no weight. The prohibition forces of the country will btj greatly disappointed if the President! does not remove this Dian, uho has encouraged antf-prohlbl.-tionlsU us well as violators of the law.” I Harris was joined by other senate drys urging that Mr. Hoover.ask the-, commission to make an early rejvort on the, liquor question. Senator Glass of Virginia w ants to.bear from the. commission soon,-but he does not tlilnk Judge McCormick should be removed from that body, “I do riot participate in* Senator Harris' view of the matter at all.” •aid Senator Glass. “U Is npt my Idea that the commission was appointed, to find out something that would please any particular .group in congress, but was appointed to ascertain the facts, regardless of what conclusion the facta might signify. “If Judge McCormick or any other member of the commission or the commission as a whole has found out what Judge McCormick seems to Imply. it is the business of such Individual members of the comthlssion •nd of the commission as a whole to report th* result of his or its investigation without respect to whom It would please or displease. Jhat was the purpose of the Investigation and I am not going to Jpln with anybody In calling for the resignation of any member of the commission merely because he may fail to find what I could have wished him to find.” Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, another dry leader, expressed the •pinion that a report from the crime cominlsaion would be »of little value In obtaining better dry law enforcement conditions. What is needed, he •aid, is an improvement in the personnel of enforcement officers. "If the commission report,” Borah ■aid. “they will not tell us anything wa do not kriow,. either as to the law •r as to the facts. We still will be back to the proposition that with the present personnel nothing will be accomplished." This brought' a sharp retort from Prohibition Commissioner James M. Doran, who declared that such a “sweeping condemnation” of the prohibition unit "is most unfortunate arid bound to have a disheartening effect upon the morale of the service.” “To say that prohibition cannot be enforced with the present personnel.” the prohibition director added, “comes
perilously near to saying that it cannot be enforced at all.” ONE more killinc by prohibition enforcement agents marked Christmas day.

Semyon Shestakov, national air hero of Soviet Russia since his flight from Moscow to New York, was selected to head the rescue expedition. Three powerful cabin pldnesi and five experienced Canadian aviators were conveyed to from Seattle on a coast guard cutter to help In the search. GENERAL RICO, military commander at Nogales, says, in a report to the Mexican government on the recent execution of Gen.

GERMAN Nationalists made a dismal failure of their latest attempt to prevent adoption of the Young reparations plan. In a public . referendum their bill “against the enslavement of the German people,” which would have the Young plan rejected, .failed to obtain more than one- ‘ fourth of the vote required to give it effect. The relc-hstag last November defeated a similar measure- by an overwhelming majority. - "■—: Consolidation of trie railroads ' of the country into 5 21 systems, two of them Canadian owned, is the tentative plan announivd by the Interstate Commerce commissloh. , The roads around which trie differ- , ent groupings are made are the following: New England—Boston arid Maine and New Haven. • . East—New York Central, Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio, Chesapeake and Ohio-Nickel Plate, and Wabash. • South—Atlantic Coast Line. Southern. and Illinois Central. West and Northwest—Chlcagg and North’Western. Great Northern-North-ern Pacific, Milwaukee, Burlington, and Union West and Southwest —Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, Missouri Pacific, and Rock Island-Frlsco. The two Canadian owned systems are designated as the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific. In Washington it was said that the fact that President Hoover favored legislation to promote railroad consolidation was enough to ensure the opposition of the radical senators and that they probably would be able to block the legislation even if it got through the house* Railroad officials and experts have criticized the commission’s plan rather severely. Furthermore, congressmen feel there is no loriger a railroad emergency such aS existed at the time the transportation act was passed, in 1920. directing the Interstate Commerce commission to prepare a consolidation plan. The theory of the radicals Is that railroad consolidations will be chiefly beneficial to financial Interests of the country and that there is no assurance of lower rates for either agriculture or industry.

MANY VERSIONS OF THE BOLERO; I FUR MODES REACH THE HEIGHTS
ONE among many evidences that both daytime and evening modes reflect the Spanish influence, is the* bolero. These cunning little Jacket effects appear in endless versions and if the bolero is not designed as a separate piece then more than likely trimming is arranged to simulate it. If there is one thing more likable about the bolero than another, it is Its youthfulness. In the picture the stylist successfully poses a bolero over a one-piece frock. The thought comes that tills idea might be put into practical working by the woman who has

Speaking of the bolero it is also popularly worn with a matching skirt and a contrast blouse. Fur Modes Intrigue. It does not seem as if one lota more of luxury and beauty and unusualness could be added to furs as stylists exploit them this season. This applies not only to the all-fur coat but to fur in its every conceivable a<japtation to the mode. Time was when fur ..manipulation was supposed to have life limitations. Because fur was fur little was ex-
For Trimming* The fur-trimmed frock has been mentioned previously as the most fashionable. It really is a very interesting fancy. Perhaps the note of fur Is only to be found in a few buttons holding a frill. Or the shoulder flower Is of fur. A very modern touch is a belt of fur rather than ofleather. Satin Linftri* Maize satin fashions a lovely lingerie set for the discriminating sportswoman. The little panties are tai-
pected of it beyond the uniform and the conventional. However, our ideas have been revolutionized. It is very evident that nowadays designers are working along the theory that whatever can be accomplished with fabric can be achieved with fur. And so the artist-furrier is turning out most marvelous style creations which intrigue with their cunning “dressmaker touches” and otherwise elaborate and unique treatments. As* an example of fascinating fur Intricacies consider the charming er-mine-trimmed ensemble to the right in
the picture below. This costume for afternoon wear Js a Worth creation, i The graceful collar, the widened cuffs, I the flare of fur plus a perky bow on i the wee chapeau all bespeak the new trend which demands of fur all those * vagaries and vanities which belong to ■ ; •modern stylizing. The black-and- j | white bag under this fair Parisienrie’s arm is one of those accessory niceties which contribute a final touch of chic to a perfect ensemble. Fur luxury is bespoken In every detail of, the magnificent fox-collared ; caracul coat which lovely Mary Nolan of Screen fame wore when, she posed for the photograph which is reproduced in our illustration. One can readily imagine what oil’s and ah’s and glances of admiration and perhaps of envy Miss Nolan’s appearance in these gorgeous furs must have - called forth from her sister co-stars in filmland. For where is the woman who. does not covet either a caracul, a leopard, perhaps a raccoon coat or

The Crippled Lady of Peribonka
—By— 4 James Oliver Curwood WNU Service (©, 1929, Doubleday Doran A Co., Ine.) STORY FROM THE START Introducing some of the people of the pretty little FrenchCanadian village of Peribonka, particularly the Crippled Lady, idol of the simple inhabitants. Paul Kirke is a-descendant of a sister of Molly Brant, sister of Joseph Brant, great Indian chief. He has inherited many Indian characteristics. His father is a , pow-erful New York financier. ——————————————— CHAPTER ll—Continued He nodded to Paul, dropped off his rubber coat, and began to fill bis pipe as he looked out over the workings. “1 wish all the boys in the world could stand in this window and see what’s going on down there,” he said. “That Idea gets Into my head every time 1 come here. It would fill 'em wit!) ambition, show ’em what can be done, give ’em something to live and work for. Rotten day, Isn’t it?" “Rotten," agreed Paul. "But for a man who’s done that— It ought to be sunshitfe all the time," added Derwent, lighting his pipe and puffing at it with great contentment. “Splendid work, Paul. Something to be proud of all your life. Something-—” , “I hate it,” Interrupted Paul. “I’ve hated it from the beginning. I’ve hated it for three years.” Derwent nddded. “1 know It." Patil turned from the window with a fiercely eloquent gesture. At thirtyeight his lean, lithe figure was more like an Indian's than when he was a boy. There was something in the cut of his chin, his neck, his shoulders, and the look in his eyes which seemed to set him widely apart from the scene he had moodily surveyed a moment before. Shadows were behind them, restless and troubled shadows, which revealed themselves only inow and then like ghosts whose grief/could not always be kept behind walls of flesh. His eyes were a deeper, blue than when his mother had known, him, and they held a chained something which was forever struggling against the powerful will of the man Occasionally the prisoner was released, and when this happened there was a singular, far-seeing, almost poetic beauty in them, and the steel went out of his flesh, so that be seemed all at once to come under the passing warmth of an influence other than that which had become so deeply rooted in his life. Derwent’s analytical mind had arrived at the truth of the matter a long time ago. He nodded again and repeated: “1 know yon .don t like it But it’s a great work, just the same.” Paul looked at Ulin with a grim smile, and DerweriF surrounded himself with a cloud of smoke. “Do you think 1 am quite a tool, Colin? Do you realty believe 1 could .be en a job. of this kind for three iyears without getting a pretty accurate measurement of myself? The fraud of it all makes me Sick I The flattery of my friends—everybody treating me as if 1 were an omnisciently powerful godhead of. some kind! I tell you it’s all a lie, and 1 hate IL I'm glad 1 didn’t build that outrage down there. I’m glad there isn't • a mark of my band upon it Good G—d! 1 would, die by Inches rather than destroy a beautiful river for a thing like that —desecrate a masterpiece for a few dollars’ profit, prostitute a gift whieti God put there when the world was tr ade, that » few worms like you and me may turn it to our selfish ends. If there Is a Power that mounts the storm and walks upon the wind if ought to strike us dead for transforming a paradise into that!” Weeks and months and years of gnawing torment bad at last broken through the dam Paul had built up about his emotions, and he spoke words which yesterday be would have throttled in his breasts “Fifty million dollars In and about that bole before it is finished, Derwent.” he said “My father’s money. That is why 1 am here. A score of engineers are on this job, and every one of them is better fitted to fill my place than L They have done the work, not L Respectfully they submit suggestions when they know they should be commands.

Wanderers in the Home park at Hampton court are said to have been startled by hearing the gangs of workmen employed in renovating its ditches and copses break into song. How far have we strayed from Merrie England, when even highwaymen and hangmen sang at their work! We may well pine for a return to the days of Peachum and Macheath. Today errand boys whistle, grooms hiss through their teeth and taxi drivers groan, but only sailors, soldiers on the march and Welsh miners sing at their work. The rest of us confine our singing to the privacy of our baths. Behind locked doors we outsoar Chaliapin, but the presence of one fellow creature is enough to reduce us to dumbness.

My father has never got away from them for a day’s play In his life. And they’ve got me. I hate them, bnt that doesn’t help. No matter where 1 go they follow me. haunt me, tie "-me hand and foot, grimace at me, and mock me. Sometimes I have had a terrible thought. 1 woulh like to see those millions shrivel up and die. 1 would like to feel the necessities of life with my naked hands. 1 would like to feel the joy of knowing that 1 had to work or go hungry. What a thrill that must s»give one!" He turned toward Derwent again, trying to stem the tide of his emotion with a smile. “Pardon me. It’s a gloomy day and I feel like raving. But 1 did love that glorious river before we cut it Into ribbons. If my father would head his millions the other way and save such things Instead of destroying them. I’d be quite happy., As It is. I suppose I must carry on until the d —d thing’s finished.” “You owe yourself an apology,” Derwent remonstrated, pocketing his pipe. “The engineers and your father’s money are making the job r success, of course. But do you ever think ot morale?. That’s a big thing, a mighty big thing. „ And it is what you nave kept alive in the camps up and down • the river for the last three years. You’re too serious, 'you don’t laugh enough, you don’t join much tn our parties and excitements, but people like you. That is wh it pulls the trick. Even the old heads; the engineers who j worked in Egypt and Panama, love to be with you. There isn't a Jealous man in' the workings. To have made that condition possible is an achievement which makes you the mpst valuable human asset*jn the organization." “It is good of you to say that,” acknowledged PauK “Funny why I should feel so strangely out of humor ’ today. 1 think Darla’s mother is getting on my nerves. Have you seen her recently?” . “This morning.” “And you still insist there is no hqpe?” «e . “Positively. 1 had Doctor Thiedmere come up from Quebec, as £ou requested. He gives her even less,time than L Doctor Rollins agrees with him. It can’t be more than three or four months, 1 think. Mrs. Haidan knows she is going to dip and talks to us very calmly about it.' She isn’t afraid. The thought of it doesn’t seem . to cast a shadow over her motherly sweetness. She is keeping herself that way for Carla s sake. If it were not for Carla the thing wouldn’t be such a tragedy?’ “I know. It’s Carla," said • Paul. “Sudden sickness and deaths like my own mother’s isn’t so .terrible. .But seeing it coming, waiting for it, counting the days and weeks'—must be - horrible. Carla is losing everything „ she has when her mother goes. I’m wondering what she will do.” “Go on working among the Children. She told my -,wife that yesterday.

Lucy-Belle says there is a love affair in Carla’s life a broken one, which makes it Impossible for Carla to love any other man or marry. Carla told <her that” Paul looked out of the window again, with his back to Derwent. “What a rotter 1 am to blow np aa 1 did a few minutes ago." he exclaimed. “But 1 was thinking of Carla and the obstinacy of life.
