S., Mar. 14 (iP) -Somewhere on the . Atlantic today there floated a "menace to navlga- tlon." Ashore 28 sailormen who knew that menace as the stout ship Reindeer thanked their lucky stars' for the courage of a sea-going mu sician. s Rising waters were closing over the fires In the Reindeer's boiler room off this coast yesterday when hope appeared on the horizon In the form of a smoke from the funnels of the Canadian Pacific liner Mont calm. Nearer she came and swung a boat down into the path of the marching waves. In it were eight oarsmen and Second Officer H. S. "Bogey" Knight, who, when the sea Is calmer, composes music songs such as "Paean of Empire" which is winning the approval of theatre audiences in Canada. Even in the lee of the big Mont calm, the lifeboat bobbed crazlly, but "Bogey" steered her away, straight to tne stricken vessel's side. He had the 28 off In a twinkling and guided them back to safety aboard the Montcalm. "A stiff bit of work," said Capt. Reginald Featherstone of the Rein deer, a wrecking steamer which was on her way to help other storm-lashed craft when her teak timbers yielded to the waves' pounding. As for "Bogey Knight, he said nothing, but went back to the seri ous business of thinking up tunes. IltlSH PARLIAMENT COSTLY, SAYS UKLFAST MK.UIlDIt BELFAST m That Northern Ire land abandon its own parliamentary system to save money and return to the English parliament is advo cated by Sir; Robert Lynn, member of parliament. (Many people never wanted a par liament in Belfast. Sir Robert says, and would shed no tears If it were abolished. With taxation already oppres sive, how can Northern Ireland, with an area less than that of York shire, and a third Yorkshire's pop ulation, continue to carry on Its back an administrative machine costly enough to govern all Eng land, he asked. HOUSE VOTES 187 TO 227 ON WET PLAN (Continued From Page One) position to the motion to consider the wet blocs' proposal. Republicans favoring bringing up the legislation immediately num bered 97, and the Democrats 90. The resolution In question which now must stay rejected In committee, would in effect put up to the states an amendment for replacing national prohibition with a state control plan. Even if today's- motion had prevailed, it would be necessary for those fa voring the legislation to command a two thirds majority in both con gressional branches before the pro Chapter 1 MARRY IN HASTE "1PT seemed to Kitty L I I Frew that the j I wheels ot the her wero whir ring along her spine. The world outsido the car window ' rushed by In a blur. She felt a little gid dy. She wished Oar would waken to talk to her, to tell her again that his family would adore her. But ier young husband ot a week was deep in sleep, sprawled In the Pullman chair next to her, uncon scious ot her growing panic. He was a good-looking young husband even so sprawled, and under other circumstances only to look at him would hare made Kitty supremely happy and oblivious to everything except her pride and possession. But not now, not with tho train carrying her nearer aul nearer to Winton and Gar's family. They couldn't know much about her. She remembered that Gar had written to them little more than that he was married. "I'm not much on letters, Kit," he had explained to hor, ' "They'll adore you, sweet, How could they help it?" And when he said things like that, with his arms close around her, she could believe him. He'd made her . believe other things too. That they'd been wait ing for one another since the begin ning of time, that It was the simple working of Destiny that had brought him to visit Phil Corey In Bridgewater after graduation, when ho'd stood' the old boy off for so long Destiny had been keeping her thero for him, a precious one-hun-dred-and-ten pound bundle of wo man, with hair that looked like hon ey and a freckled nose and eyes that were bluer than the bluest eyes he'd ovorseen. "Let's drive over to Albany and tie up. Kit." But Kitty wouldn't think she was married if it weren't In church, her own church, beforo old Dr. Har wood, with her father and mother there, with Sally Withers standing up with her. Gar had yielded that much If she'd marry him at once. John Brandon, Kitty's father, had accepted Garfield Frew because tho Coreys sponsored him. His family, Gar had explained, wero on the ocean homeward bound from Eu rope; when they got back to Win ton they'd be frightfully busy with everything and they'd bo glad he hadn't waited. His father'd been counting on his taking a position In his office as soon as hed finished college. And now, of course, bo'd do that. Mary Brandon, Kitty's mother, had seen their love a beautiful thing. Kitty was just the age sho had been when she married John Brandon. Children, she thought ot Oar and Kitty as dear children. During that week of their honey moon, spent In an unfrequented place In the Adlrondacks, Kitty had bad no rcom in her conscions- 1'tCITTY 1 posed new amendment could be sent to the states. Tho anti-prohlbltlontsts held no hope of getting Buch a vote at pres ent, and if they did it would be necessary for tho proposed amend ment to bo ratified by three fourths of tho states before the change could become effective. Besides Speaker Garner, 18 mem bers of the house's present member ship of 433 did not vote. They included 14 Democrats and 4 Republicans. Garner Knps For Order Speaker Garner presided during the roll call and found it necessary to rap for order only once. . It is not customary for the speak er to vote except In event of a tio, but he has tho privilege of so doing and could have directed the clerk to call his name if he had so chosen. by JANE ABBOTT ness for anyone but Gar, But now, going to them, she saw his family a part ot their future with which to reckon. That she might give them reality she brought her mind, now, to what Gar had told her ot his people. His mother was frightfully busy, run ning committees and things like that, tremendously efficient, that sort. "Stunning looking and looks half hor age." His father, Gar had said, worked like tho devil; he was a diroctor i t almost every concern of any Impor tance in Winton; ha hated the so cial racket . Gar had a sister, two years older than he was. Carol was a good sort when she wasn't running after some queer fad or other. "While I'm laying bare the hard facts of my family, Mrs. Frew, I must tell you that I have a half brother. Back In his obscure youth Dad married unwisely and David Is the hard fruit of that union. I'm not at all hot about him. He doesn't live at homo, prefers a mousy apart niont whore what lie does is no body's business not that we are interested in the least." Kitty hnd not been interested tlicn, mid now sho did not think or David. "What If they didn't adore hor. that mother and rather and sister of Gar's 1 he possibility was so frightening tlut sho felt an impera tive need of Gar's reassurance. She reached out her hand and locked It around his foot where It rested on tho edgo ot her chair. And as she did so sho heard a faint laugh from across the alBlo. She withdrew her hand hastily, flushing, startled, startled bocnuse until that moment she had not been conscloUB of any follow traveler. Turning her confused glance toward tho opposlto chair, she saw another girl's eyes slip away from hers with a llttlo slant-wise lift while hor lips hold their amused smlio. Kitty surveyed tho other girl with an unhappy fascination. "She's lovely," site thought, giving full measure of trlbuto to tho stranger's perfectly molded profilo of nose and chin and slender throat. Sho ap praised tiio other's clothes with n now dismay; in comparison wllh them her own traveling suit, her brimmed hat, her patent Ijal lior pumps, in nil of which uri'tH this momont she had taken rorr.ploto satisfaction, looked chrrip, un stylish. Her touch on his fool had wak ened Gar. Ho roused sleepily. "Gosh, Kit, how long hnvo I been sunk? Whoro are wo?" He straightened and under pretense of looking out of tho window kissed her ear. "Have you been lonely, swoot?" Ho stretched luxuriously, his eyes feasting on Kitty's flushing face. Then he turned slowly to look about him, his glance travel ing gradually to tho opposlto chair, stopping short there, whllo an ex clamation of astonishment and do light escaped his lips. Ho sprang to his feet and held out hlB hands. "Why, Marge Crosby! When did you got on?" Tho girl had put both her hands in Car's. Sho left them there, as sho answered. "At Rochester.

Gar had seen her look nt Kitty. "Marge, I want you to meet my wife." He colored a little, laughed, "It's no joke. I'm married been married a whole week. We're going home now." . The girl gave the slightest nod toward Kitty. She feigned aston ishment and hurt, sinking back In her chair with a deep, reproachful, upward look In her eyes for Gar. "Gar, where, when how?" "Oh, up In Bridgewater ever hear of the place? Phil Morey lives there. You've met him at college. Guess we cheated the society sheet. They'd give a good deal to lay chelr pens to an account of our wedding. Simple stuff, all right, preacher one ot those hick dominies, wheezy or gan, flowers out of my father-in-law's garden, picked by the bride and groom. Won't Red and the rest of tho bunch get a great laugh out ot It? But, believe me, they'll find Kitty's a peach " Gar's tone was warm with feeling, but he was look ing at Margery Crosby, not at Kitty. And Kitty 4iad not heard his trib ute Sho was confused with Bhame for Gar. r How could he spea,; so flippantly of that moment that hnd been sn solemn, so henutlttn for "Marge, I want you to meet my wife," Gar said. both of them just to make this girl laugh? i. But Gar was finishing with fatu ous ardor: "I want you and Kit to bo friends. Marge. You can lino hor' up with tho bunch." "Wo will bo friends, ot course," Margo smiled sweetly at Kitty. "I'll do my boat with the others though you must reallzo. Gar, this 1b going to be a blow to them. Naturally wo'vo thought we would havo your undivided attention for a whllo." "What's new In tho crowd, Margo?" "Oh, nothing startling, in tho light of what you've done. Peto Elliot's had his license taken away again; imprisonment for his noxt offense." Kitty was scarcely heeding what they wero saying, but sho was deep ly awaro of a now tone In Oar's voice, a delighted eagerness, as If this encounter with Margery Crosby and the news she could give him of his "crowd" was a big part of hlo homecoming, in which sho,. a strangor, had no share. Tho train lind slowed down. "Wo'ro-ln," Gar exclaimed, ' With Marge on his one sldo and Kitty on tho other ho steered them through tho contusion of tho sta tion. - Ho put Margery Into a big limousine that was waiting for hor. Sho leaned toward the open window ot tho door and lifted her hand in a casual farewell. "Thanks, Gar. Olve mo a ring soon, won't you?" Oar promised. Ho stood for a mo ment surveying tho street. "I don't see the family crato waiting any where! Well, we'll take a taxi. It's homo for us, Mrs. -Frew!" And, though he bent a warm, adoring smile on hor, though ho drew her arm closer In his, Kitty felt cold and frightened. (Copvrtaht, Jane Abbott Kitty's fear grows whin the reaches Oar's home. In the next installment. What will his mother say about the sudden marriage? FREWl n i ur:L t Parents FOBCING HIM TO EAT Dy Alice Judson Peale A boy of 6 ate so little that he notunlly was undernourished. Be was lo per cent underweight and his mother was at her wit's end. 'si She had used every device she , She had cooked tho most tasty dishes. She hod baked special puddings, She had promised rewards. Sho had sung to him and told him stories to make moat time more amusing. Nothing helped. At this point his father stepped In. uXt you don't eat I'll spank you," he said, The boy sat stubborn. Hla fa- tnor picked nlm up, administered the spanking and then set him down walling before him dinner plate. If you don't eat now, I'll spank you again," said the father. The boy ate. i i Now whenever he refuses to eat or! dawdles over his meals his mother has onlv tn niiv. "I'll tflll vmir fnthop when he comes home." ! This sounds as if an old-fashioned remedy still were a good one. It got results. But undoubtedly not all the results are odvIoub ns yot. What effect will such treatment have upon the boy's- feelings toward nls parents? How much good will ho derive from food eaten under the nervous tension of fear, rage and re sentment? 1 r -1 How long will this method of forc ing him to eat be efficacious? Wilt not the painful associations thus es tablished in connection with . meal time cause the child really to dis like food whereas before he was only playing a game with It. Harsh measures frequently bring an lmmedlato compliance which we take for success. But It Is safe to say that especially In connection I with the establishment of good rou tine habits they are bound to bring failure In the long run and to cause problems worse than the one they wero Intended to cure.

GERMANY TO VOTE AGAIN ON APRIL 10 (Continued from Page One) Reichstag probably would have met to extend President Von Hlndenburg's term for tho presidential seven years by act of parliament. The Communist candidate, whom somo expected to make a respectable showing, fell about 100,000 short or 6,000,000 votes. Ho was Ernst Thael mann, whose campaign pledges led tlie way of Soviet Russia.

His lieutenants were confi dent his strength would run irons 16,000.000 to 18.000.000. In addition 'to Hitler, Dr Alfred Hugenberg, leader of the Nationalise party, was disappointed. He had en gineered Lieutenant Colonel Duester berg's candidacy solely for the pur pose of having votes to bargain with in the' event of a second ballot. Hitler Behind In Bavaria . Hitler ran behind Von Hindenburg in all districts where the Nazis were partly or wholly in control, namely Thuringla, Brunswick and Hess. He also fell behind in Bavaria, where his Fascist movement was born. In only three of the nation's 35 districts was Hitler ahead. These were the rural provinces of Pomeranta and Schles-wlg-Holsteln and the Industrial dls trlct of Ohemnltz-Zwickau, Hitler received only slightly less than a million votes more than his party polled In the 1030 Reichstag election. The Communists, with their 4,900,000 votes, made a less noticeable gain over tlietr 1030 figures. In 1930 they polled 4,500,000 votes. . . Fears had been expressed in some quarters that the Socialists might disobey party instructions and vote for the Communist Thaelmann In stead of Von Hindenburg. These fears were shown to be unfounded. Social democracy . gave an excellent example of discipline by voting for a man whose philosophy of life runs counter to theirs but whose honesty and Integrity they respect.
