Today
Frightened Flies.
The Bonus O. K.
Governor Silzer, Dark
Horse.
The Hop to Asia.
^By ARTHUR BRISBANE^
Yesterday Wall street had its
lowest day in nine months. Gen
tlemen down there are trying to
frighten themselves. French and
Belgian francs dropped rather se
verely, and that disturbed specu
lators.
Two pessimistic Americans talk
in'?; to each othifr remind you of a
couple of flies in the subtreasury
spending their lives where money is
piled up. One buzzes, “I don’t like
the financial outlook.”
“Yes, it’s very serious, and we
are beginning a presidential cam
paign; that’s always very bad for
business.” They may frighten
themselves, but there is nothing to
frighten them.
The president’s veto is overrid
den, and the soldiers will get their
bonus money.
This means a few more millions
every year put into circulation, pro
moting business and prosperity.
Some that hate paying taxes will
grieve. And for the extra dollar
that they may pay in taxes they
will make two extra dollars in the
regular course of business.
The bonus question now out of
the way, will be forgotten by elec
tion day. One that fought with
them and knows American, soldiers
veil,, says “they are good sports,
and don’t bear malice. Having got
what they are after, they will, say
‘perhaps Coolidge will veto some
l^vnintr else that really would be bad
’ for the national pocketbook,’ and
1 then forget all about it.”
Ninety per cent*of the politicians
say McAdoo and A1 Smith will kill
each other off and a dark horse will
get it. Some believe that Ralston
of Indiana will be the man, but
others say “no, he’s older than Gen
eral Pershing, who retires for age,
that would bar him.”
Those seeking the identity of the
probable dark horse should devote
attention to Governor Silzer of New
Jersey. He has back of him, led by
Mayer Hague, one of the most pow
erful political organizations in the
pountry.
And, what is more important, he
lias an excellent official record, hav
ing given his state an administra
tion honest, efficient and construc
tive. Include him in your predic
tions if you want to cover the po
litical probabilities.
American fliers, after a 510-mile
‘‘hop,” land on the Japanese island
rf Yetorofu, politely greeted by the
crews of two warships, one Japan
ese, one American.
It’s now plain that flying ma
chines can be used between Asia
and the United States, as little Tar
tar ponies were used in Asia and
western Europe in the days of
Atilla.
President Coolidge is the man
. most interested in that “hop” from
America to Asia. It is his business
to provide flying machines that will
^prVcvent any hostile hopping from
w Asia to the United States.”
Cyrus IT. K. Curtis, who takes
public affairs seriously, is wrought
up about the McNary-Haugen farm
bill, which would compel the United
States to interest itself in the wel
fare of farmers and finance co
operative bargaining in their behalf.
Mr. Curtis prints a cartoon show
ing the farmer, labeled “farm bloc,”
holding sharp pitthfork against the
stomach of a gentleman labeled
“congress” holding the key to the
treasury in his hand. “Gimmie” is
the word above the cartoon.
Perhaps Mr. Curtis will show now
a picture of another “bloc,” the
railroad-financial bloc from Wall
Street, holding a gun to the head
of Uncle Sam and picking his pock
tts without any “gimmie” or other
paste of words.
It’s the Wall street bloc, not the
farm bloc, that worries the citizens.
The Dutch Reformed Church of
South Africa opposes prohibition,
saying:
“Wine is a gift of God which no
one should desecrate.”
That church takes seriously the
Bible statement that the founder
of Christianity, by a miracle turned
water into Wine, to make a wedding
more cheerful. Somp American
preachers say the wine thus pro
i duced was nonalcoholic. But is it
l likely that wedding guests would
have considered that a miracle
P*H«rth while?
The Mexican government yester
day completed a contract to buy
51 locomotives from the Baldwin
Locomotive works. That’s the way
for neighborly nations to spend
I their money. It’s a comfortable
improvement on borrowing from
I your neighbor and then spending
the borrowed money fdf guns and
noison gas to shoot of choke him
later on.

The Eager Question That Leila Asked
My eyes ran quickly, furtively, from
one to the other of our little group,
wondering if they had seen what I
had—the shadow upon Leila Durkee's
face as her mother-in-law planned the
buying of new clothes for her south
ern trip and the elder woman's reali
zation of the younger's reaction to her
projected expenditure.
Dicky and Edith Fairfax had not
noticed anything amiss. Dicky was
gazing out of the window near which
he was seated and Edith was looking
at him. I caught tl\at in my quick
survey of the room, and remembered
that in her half-hysterical expression
of remorse to me for her folly In the
past years, there had been no. assur
ance that her feeling for Dicky was
dead.
I had neither time nor inclination
however, foV conjecture on this point
just now, but woman like, I tucked It
away for safekeeping even as my eyes
came to Katherine's face and read in
it not only a comprehension of the
situation, but real anxiety as she
watched her patient.
For little Mrs. Durkee's reaction to
the knowledge which had descended
so suddenly upon her was pitiful.
One hand went to her throat, as if she
were choking, and the other beat at
the air futilely. Katherine moved to
ward her swiftly, but she waved her
back.
“Oh, oh,” she moaned softly, "What
a selfish old thing I am.”
Leila sprang to her side, alarm and
the real affection, which ly hers for
her mother-in-law, showing in her deli
cate face.
"Mother, dear,” she entreated,
“What is it?”
A little gleam of resentment came
into Mrs. Durkee's eyes. She had
realized her own thoughtless selfish
ness. but she was not yet prepared
to forgive her son's wife for her un
conscious betrayal of the uneasiness
which had enlightened the older wo
man.
"Don’t touch me,” she said sharp
ly. ”1 shall be all right in a minute.
And you needn’t worry, I’ve come to
my senses and realized things, I
shan't spend a cent on new clothes.”
"Oh. Mother,” Leila’s cry betrayed
the astonished hurt which was hers.
“I haven't said-”

The difference in cost
between good vinegar
and ordinary vinegar is
just a few cents.
But this difference
may mean the differ

Refuse imitations of genuine “Phillips”
25-cent bottles, also larger size, contain directions and uses.
‘Tou don't need to say things,"
her mother-in law retorted decidedly,
and I felt my sympathies fast shift
ing from the older woman to the
younger. “Just the look on your face
was enough for me. But I deserve it!
1 never thought of all the expense
Alfred has been put to and will be
later on. There's an easy way out,
however. 1 don't need to go south.
Then I won't need new clothes."
It was plain to all of us this time
tluft "Her Flufflness,'’ usually the
kindest and mildest of women, was
enjoying her own martyrdom and ill
temper Immensely. But it was any
thing but sport for the rest of us
watching Leila's face turn from red to
white, and her futile attempt to keep
the tears hack. I saw Edith Fairfax’s
face harden and knew that only hy
the most heroic restraint was she
keeping from angry speech. Katherine
and I exchanged quick glances and
she spoke decisively.
"All this is beside the point. My
patient is getting disturbed and that
is very had for li*r. Dr. Bralthwaite
would be extremely angry at me if
he knew this. So I am going to clear
all of you out of here for a few min
utes. Pehaps I’ll let you come back
later if you’re good. So-”
She gestured smilingly toward the
door and we all hurried to obey her.
As we went Mrs. Durkee murmured
frettingly:
“Not Madge. I want Madge to
stay.”
“Not even Madge for a few min
utes,” Katherine returned inexorably,
and I rejoiced In her answer as I fol
lowed the rest out of the room. If
any one could reduce the little woman
to reason it was Katherine.
When I reached the library down
stairs I found Leila weeping softly on
Edith's shoulder, while Dicky, with
his back to them, stood looking out of
the window, his hands in ills pockets
and his whole manner expressing
masculine impotence in the face of
problems purely feminine.
Edith was talking softly to her
sister and whatever she said evidently
was efficacious in restoring the other
girl's mental poise, for it was but a
little while before Leila's sobbing
ceased and she began to talk softly In
her turn. And then, as It were some
thing that had long been on her
mind but temporarily forgotten, she
lifted Edith's hand gazing at the ring
finger and asked softly:
“Have you no news for me, Edie?'1
