' "Proclaim Liberty through all the land" The Liberty Bell Those who are goverued "Tne power to tax tk the After the Build-tJp WilliamAllen White, the sage of Emporia, aptly summed sum-med up the luandon situation when he remarked after the Cleveland convention that "it took Lincoln six years to grow to .the proportions that Alf Landon has assumed in six -months. Of course, Mr. White referred to the meteoric build-up that brought about the Kansan's nomination. The combined forces of the modern newspaper, radio, and telephone made a familiar character out of a man who, nationally, was comparatively com-paratively unknown half a year ago. But now comes the test. The build-up days are over for Governor Landon. Henceforth, he must emerge as the individualjjresenting his own case, standing on his own feet. It's going to be interesting so see how closely "Alf" of the posters stacks up with "Alf" as he really is. Congratulations Well Deserved The essentia industry of the west paper and pulp making all from our timber has brought about orderly agreement with its 11,000 employes. The workers will receive re-ceive raises in pay. How simple this is. Instead of having a strike for weeks or months and then getting around a peace table, the employers em-ployers and the worker's representatives eliminated the strike and met at the table. They were there a week. Plants operated and men and women worked while the working agreement for the current year was made up. Other employers and other workers in other industries will hear of the settlement and agreement. But it won't do any good. Napoleons spring up in every industry, some man sfyf the minute ready to save a cause for his fellows no mat-. mat-. ter how many months of work is sacrificed. The Herald recognizes and applauds the activities of intelligent in-telligent men of the paper making industry and crafts. Action of the two groups is one of the rare triumphs of brain over brawn in labor wrangling.

"I'm going to be all right. I think I feel better already." She didn't, but she wanted to be alone.

She didn't look as though she were feeling fine, by any means, but Harriet was too concerned with her own affairs to notice. "Clyde's coming tonight." she exclaimed jubilantly. "I found a letter from him when I came In. He's going to get in town about 5 o'clock and he's coming to take me to dinner.

Something was the matter with Toby: she hadnt been a bit like herself lately. Harriet suspected sus-pected It had something to do with Tim Jamleson. He'd given Toby such a rush for a while. Now he was gone and Toby dldnt seem to want to talk about where he was or when he'd be back. All she had said was that he was out of town. Harriet was inclined to hope he was, and that he would stay there. Anyone who made Toby look so miserable was good riddance! It was half an hour later that the telephone rang. Harriet answered an-swered and then, lowering the instrument, in-strument, put a hand over the receiver. re-ceiver. "It's for you. Toby." she said. "For me?" The words were the barest echo of the song In Toby's heart. Tim was calling at last! CHE took the telephone and Raid, trying to keep her voice as steady as possible. "Hello " Bat ft was not Tim who answered. an-swered. For an instant Toby didn't understand the voice on the wire. She only knew it wasn't Tim's voice. There was a pause, and then she heard herself speaking. speak-ing. She said, trying to stifle her disappointment. "Oh. Bill how are you ?" It was odd that she hadn't recognized rec-ognized Bill Brandt's voice. Only she had been so sure so very sure it would be Tim. Toby suddenly realized bow long it had been since she had seen Bill. Almost two weeks, except for a brief encounter on the street. Until lately she'd seen Bill two and three times each week. He said. "Oh. I'm getting along all right.

Started by Instill, In-still, it was a valuable property but was lef unfinished when In-sull In-sull crashed during the depression. Also, Morrison came out to defeat de-feat Maury Maverick of San Antonio An-tonio for re-election . to congress, threaned to put up $25,000 against him. Maverick had violently violent-ly attacked the big utilities, and Mcrrison, a Texas utility operator, opera-tor, nad made a deal with the Jnsull receivers to take over the Hamilton power project. To this end, Morrison asked the Reconstruction Finance corporation corpora-tion for a loan to complete the project, but R.F.C. Chairman Jesae Jones, also from Texas, turned him down. Then Morrison petitioned Harold Har-old Ickes for a PWA loan. Again ht was turned down. Ickes told him PWA could not lend government govern-ment money to develop a private power site. So Morrison then engineered a bill in the Texas legislature which would create a Lower Colorado River Power Authority to take over the Hamilton project as a public enterprise. This encountered encounter-ed some .opposition, but eventually eventual-ly passed JUST A GIFT - - Meanwhile, Morrison's deal with the Insull receiver was completed and approved by U. S. District Judge James H. Wilkerson. It was a neat piece of legal legerdemain legerde-main and requires a word of explanation. ex-planation. The Hamilton Dam was incorporated incor-porated under Central Texas Hydroelectric, Hy-droelectric, which was part of Middle West Utilities, the parent Insull concern. Receiver for tshis was Van Rensselaer Thayer of Chicago. And Thayer agreed to give C. G. Mallott, agent for Morrison, all She deserves it. And, by the way, how about giving me one? I haven't seen you in a eoon's age. Dont you think it's about time we went down to the old eafeteri where they have the corned beef and erfbbage? Or, if you'd like something fancier, I might even be able to manage that. Not too fancy, of course " Toby's voice was regretful. "I'd like to Bill but I'm afraid I can't tonight." "Some other boy friend ahead of me, huh? You're certainly getting to be a popular girl, Toby." "I really do want to see you. Bill.

There may have been an answer on the tip of Harriet'? tongue, but If there was. she kept it to herself. Clyde Sabin telephoned later and then arrived at. the apartment ' He wasnt at all the sort of person Toby had expected him to be. In the first place, he was older well into the 30's, Surely.

And be certainly tried to be pleasant. Toby thought perhaps he tried a little too hard. Maybe that was the reason she didn't feel at ease with him. She couldn't think of any other reason. Sabin repeated Harriet's invitation invita-tion for Toby to Join them for the evening. "Let me call op Tom Garshle." he said. "I know he'd be glad to come along. Tom's a nice fellow, too. You'll like him " But Toby made it plain that she preferred to stay In. and when the others saw she meant it they gave up their urging. They left finally and Toby went to the ' window and looked out-Dusk out-Dusk had settled over the street; in half an hour it 'would be dafk. Already Manhattan's electrical splendor was in evidence, though Toby could not see it. Nearby buildings, bleak, unligjtited, closed in about her. They assumed grotesque, gro-tesque, menacing outlines. Toby turned her back on them and walked from the window. Downstairs a radio had begun to play 4 tune she had often danced with Tim, The music was being broadcast from some place where there was gaiety and laughter, soft lights, couples dancing as she and Tim had danced. A sudden sen of loneliness swept over her. Why had she insisted in-sisted on remaining at home tonight? to-night? Why hadnt she gone out with Harriet and Clyde Sabin?

All this is a maU'ir of record in ' Equity 11681." District Court of the United States, Northern District of Illinois. Bu'j what is not a matter of record is what argument Morrison Morri-son used on Receiver Thayer to induce him to make Morrison a gift of 51 per cent of the Hamil ton Dam. However, Morrison's political i prestige both in Washington and 1 Texas apparently waj wor.M ! 51 per cent of the power company. JACK GARNER Vice President Garner, inti-, mate of Ralph Morrison, spoke 1 a word for him. So also did Congressman Con-gressman James Buchanan,, chairman chair-man of the powerful Appropriations Appropria-tions committee, in whose district Hamilton Dam Ls localod. Then the president sent a brief memo over to PWA Administrator Administra-tor Ickes asking him to look over the project again. Ickes had turned turn-ed it down before. But now thai Texas had created a state power authority, Ickes put up the money $20,000,000, of which $12,-500.000 $12,-500.000 is a loan and $7,500,000 an outright grant. Under the arrangement Morrison Morri-son made with the Insull receiver, he. was to get a certain specified profit in' case the Hamilton dam was sold. This now happened. The new Lower Colorado River Power Authority, using PWA's $20,000,-000 $20,000,-000 bought the uncompleted dam for $1,650,000. And ou. of this Ralph Morrison got a profit of $800,000 or almost, one half. So far as the records show.
