The names are not particularly impressive. Not that we worship "big names"; but some of the men appear to be rather third rate. The big man and the big name is Cordell Hull, secretary of state. This is really his party; and to career may stand or fall on his, accomplishments at the conference. Hull is the proponent of reciprocal tariffs and of tariff readjustments in order to thaw out the trade block ades of the world. He has -worked out schemes which he hopes to put over in London that will aid this country and the world to recover prosperity. ; ?:The next big name on the list is that of James Cox, for mer Ohio governor and 1920 democratic candidate for pres ident. He made a big flop as a presidential candidate so that hisiame has been dim ever since. He has had sudden halo lately because he was the only one to turn down the Mor gan bid to buy stocks at bargain prices. Cox is a newspaper publisher. The record does not show whether he turned down the of fer because he was too poor or too conscientious. :Key Pittman, senator from Nevada, is another delegate. Pittman is a bright fellow with one idea, to get silver remon etized so Nevada will have a burst of prosperity. With the country going bust on paper currency even silver would be better, but it seems inappropriate to designate a propagan dist to a job which calls for a very catholic temper on all world problems. : Senator James Couzens of Michigan was named after Hiram Johnson declined. Couzens is neither fish, flesh, nor fowl. He is an honest man who defies classification. He is so erratic that he may be more of a liability than an asset. - iRenresentative Samuel D. McReynolds of Tennessee gets his job because bythe accident of seniority he is chairman of the foreign relations committee of the house. His qualifica tions are considered very limited. 'Besides these members there will be advisors and sec retaries who may do most of the actual work. i Important as the conference is. one's heart sinks as he reads of the numbers who will attend. With so many attend ing the new deal may get bogged in a maze of cloakroom . -, , - in cigarette smoice ana pacKstaira wirepulling. y, , r , 1- " The Crowning Glory YI7TTH a circus midget perched on the lap of "Morgan the Magnificent". ir and photohounds shooting the scene with the aid of electric flashes, the inquisition at Washington attained its crowning glory.

Bill looked at the towering. square old woman, at the spacious book filled room, and the long red velveteen curtains through which the light filtered dimly. Then he looked down at his shapeless old shoes, his rough, scarred hands. He saw Joan again as he had first seen her slender and gold and re mote against the red curtains. "Have I been dreaming?" he thought in a sudden, cold despair. "Did I imarine ererythrnr?" He choked. Air he had to have air! He clutched his cap and brushed roughly past her, for the door.
