It is wholly needless to recount here the virtues of tho American Red CrosH, It Is the out Btandlng organization of mercy In the entire world. Tho lied Cross Is on the Jnb day and night every day of every your. It is supported by voluntary membership and tho annual Hull Call is its principal means of financial support. One comment must be mmlo whether we like the thought or not. Tho need for Ited Ciohs funds this year is greater than before greater than Mince 11)18, In fact. The Red Cross must bo ready for any emergency. It is ready for any peace time emergency but it is not adequately fluunced to meet tho emergency of war. Wo can prepare our armed defenses by collecting taxes but our humanitar ian defense tho Red Cross is supported by contributions may they bo ndoquatu! ' v A belter peace for the wond (moaning mostly, of course, the Kuropcau portion of the world) til tho hope of President Uoosovolt tu ox p res tied In his Armistice day statement. The peace following the world war was not a genuine peace. People in Europe knew that nothing hud been settled per manentlythat sometime the busb uess of making war and then of making another peace would be done again. Power used with restraint can keep peace. In Europe before, the present outbreak, the ruler or Ger many had the power to enforce peaeo in Europe. He failed to use his power to that end. There Ih peace on our continent. We do not even have border for tlfiealtous here. Yet there Is en ormous power In our own country. Nor can It be said that wo enforce this situation with our might. There Is a feeling of mutual trust and respect between us and Can ada. Wo get along preity well, shifting governments considered, with Mexico, our southern neigh bor. But wu deal with Canada as an equal and we ileal as best we can wait Mexico. At-least it Is not our policy to dictate to Mexico according to our strength. Before Europeans can develop a better pencu they will havu lo learn to use the power of their great masses first to obtain bet ter government lenders and then to control with moderation and with peace and tranquility as the major demand.

SERIAL STORY JOAN OF ARKANSAS BY JERRY BRONDFIELD copyr.ght. im. kEA SERVICE. INC. CAST OK CHARACTERS JOAN JOHNSON a myaterioua coed, glamor girl of the Tech campus. KFITH RHODhiS Tech's Btar fullback, headed for All-American honors. DAN WEBBER the blocking back who clears Keith's way; a steady. Industrious student. YESTERDAY: Joan and Dan are kiduuped, driven to a country hideout. Joan is ordered to write her father, giving instructions for payment of $50,000 ransom. "And tell him," the gangster snarls, "that if that dough ain t picked ui hv Haturday, they'll find you floattag In the river." Joan knows he means what he says. CHAPTER XXIII Joan's feeling of terror grad ually left her as she thought of her father. He,'d know how to handle this. Nothing bad ever stopped him. 'That's an awful lot of money. she said. "He he doesn't have that much," she added almost des perately. Big Ed h in I 1 e d crookodly. "What're you try in' to hand us, sister? The old guy can raise four times that much in an hour and you know iU He knows who he's dealin' with." Dan looked at her curiously. What did ho mean by that? Ed grinned vith satisfaction. "We got quite a reputation. Guys who knows us never doubt our In tegrity, as they say in the papers, hey Rocco?" Big Ed spread his hands. "Now that everybody understands every body else, we're guma get along, hey?" . And then, more curtly: "Rocco, you go back into town. Keep Ioa but keep your eyes and ears open. I got a hunch her old man will come bustin' In." He turned to Joan. "It ain't gonna do him u damn hit of good, though. , "Ham, see what that other kid has in his pockets thai he shouldn't. Incidentally, what'u your name, kid?" he asked Dan alter Rocco had left. Dan told him. Sam tossed his wallet to Eil who looked through it hastily and tossed It back. "Here . . . you can keep it." "Thanks." Dun said sarcastically. Ed looked at hitu bleakly. "Don't be a fresh punk, now. You ain't supposed to be In this party, you know." His face grew hard. "Mebhe we shoulda dumped you out somewhere, at that. You'll only be In the way. "As long as you kids behave yourselves we'll let you be a little1 bit free. One bud move and we'll keep you tied up like a bundle of groceries." "Mind If we look around a bit?" Joan asked. He grinned. "Sure, go ahead. But don't go far." It was a plain, one-story house with an unfinished garret. Appar ently no one had lived there for more than a year. The furnish ings were poor with just bare ne cessities hi evidence. "Von is is the blue room," Big ICd called to Joan. "Right over thero." She opened the door across from the small bathroom and grimaced at the sight of the rickety bed and straight, hard chair. The single window was liourded up securely on the outside. "Hardly the Rltz-Carllon." she murmured. There was a scene of wild com motion at the Alpha Nu house when .loan failed to show up for dinner. Keith's car had been found deserted on the stadium roud. No one could explain It. Bill H locum had raged when Dan failed to report for practice but things took on a serious aspect when both Joan and Dan were still mlssiUK at S o'clock. It took J. (I. Johnson, escorted by a police Inspector, to turn some light on the problem. J. G. burst upon the Alpha Nu house with the full Tury or a northern gale. It had taken hhu just two and a half hours to get from New York in u chartered plane. He was still too breathless to speak comprehensively, ami it was tho inspector who took over and explained what had happened, ". . . Signs and tracks indicate someone was with Miss Johnson when she was picked up. The shoe prints tally with those or Dan Webber. Now, we want you girls lo eooperale It ti us as fully as j-os.-sible . . . think clearly, now . . ." It was a hushed, scared croup which huddled In the Alpha Nu living room biter that night. The Tribune had come out with an extra and Tommy Peters, staring shook bis head. "Boy. am I (he prize dummy. Joan Johnson .... millionaire heiress . . . dummter of J. O. Johnson Id- mvtrn iudusli-hiJist . . ." he muttered, reading snatches of the story. "I wasn't just dumb." he re peated. "I was plain thick. All the time I (houirht she mlnhi hi. elated to old J. t. or his family.; ne got Ins start down Arkansas way and then transkrred his op erations out east." j He slapped the paper. "She told me she had nn relatives in Arkan-1 sas. but that happened to be the, truth . . . and that's what stumped me. I never dreamed she wn the! uaiigmer oi iiir, j. Johnson. Tommy turned to Carol wildly. "Oil . . . steel . . . railroads . . banks. I'm teliin' yon her old man is one nf these behind-the-scenes miys who owns half the country." Kay whistled softly. "And that's w ho Joan Johnson is. tlee, it's one thing to be well-to-do and it's another to be" She paused. "T be .heinjss'j to o.. million UUn.rR ijr3 w." Milanne aduvd - -'BarueyHutjUes'' stopped" iu and "Keith been over?" he wanted to know. Someone replied that he had phoned a short while ago, but had not stopped In. "Doesn't surprise me," said Carol. "What do you mean?" Elaine asked Quickly. "Ob; 1 don't know exactly. Ex cept that--well, I think Joan had been doing a lot of thinking lately." "You mean . . .?" "I mean she was just about ready to pack bhn in." "Then why did she use his car on that field trip?" Carol shrugged. "She asked him for It before she made up her mind about it, I'm sure. And she probubly wanted to end it grad ually, "She had Keith's feelings to comiider too, you know. A lot of us realized it too late, maybe, but she was aces. I hope it isn't too late." she added, as an ugly after thought hit her. Bonnie Harris summed it up perfectly. "It was something we all suspected but wouldn't admit." Suddenly Tommy jumped up with a whoop. "I've got it I've got it," he yellofl. "That guy I saw in the Varsity the other night . . . Rocco Pelrone, that's who it Is? Uocco Petronel "Now I remember why his pic ture wus in that St. Louis paper a couple of years ago. He was being held on kidnaping charges of some sort. Maybe maybe . . . say, I think I've got a clew!" They gaped at him in wonder as dashed from the room. (To he continued') ' ' TVIAI RESCUED FBOM SI FUCISCQ By SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. Ki.
