Hoover great concern XJ was manifested about the deficit "Balance the budget was the cry over the country; and the president and congress ' made a gallant effort to increase taxes and. hold down expen ses, still the deficit continued. Under Pres. Roosevelt progress was made toward bal ancing the budget for operating costs of the government by means of cuts in veterans grants and in wages of civil em- proves. The budget does not balance yet, though the deficien cy bits been reduced. -V In a separate bookkeeping system however are compiled the costs of the "new deaF in which the .government becomes almoner for the population. Public works, farm grants and credits, emergency relief have all made and are continuing to make great drains on the treasury which are being met by emission of government bills and bonds. The. National In dustrial Conference board computes the total. cost of the new deal at over eleven billion dollars, and this figure excludes the loans made by RFC. If RFC loans are includsd the esti mate of government liability is raised to over fifteen billions. Not all of this will be a direct charge to the taxpayers by any means. Some of it is in the form of loans as on farms and homes which may be repaid. The writeoffs however are bound to be huge over the course, of years. The following is the table of liabilities vnder the new deal: IVuIaM 1 rm avawmw A4mlnls4inlAi s. Dt1fj.

Last summer the backstairs artists had Mr. Woodin leaving by ev ery bus, but he continued in office. Now when he does go the keyholers were fooled. The departure of Woodin on leave and of Under-Secretary Acheson by resignation will eliminate the "sound money" advocates from the council table. The treasury the first of the week declared its support of the gold-upping pol icy of the administration, but the statement must have been issued when Woodin and Acheson were on the way out. Undoubtedly with such an odd assortment of policies therff will be men who just "can't take it" under the new deal and will have to be shown the gate, or else will fumble for the latch voluntarily. -While Woodin does have the excuse of a throat affliction, neither he nor Acheson has been advising the president on his new monetary policy. That is a product of the brain trust and particularly of Prof. Warren's imag ination. Thus far the gold policy has not been. succeeding; prices both of commodities and securities have not risen com mensurate to the injection of artificial stimulus in the gold price, while bond prices, especially government issues, have been weak.

Jnlian Haver fcolt, aoted bridge expert, is laad natad by Patricia and impressed by her gas. He esTcrs her a poartioo. CHAPTER TWO Ia the aaldst of her youthful en thnsiasm Patricia again was coa scions of Haverholt's warm and tn timsta gaxe. All at once she was checked a Httle, vaguely distnrbed. A trace of her earlier doubt return ed. Patricia Warren was young bat she had learned many hard lessons in hex eighteen years. Among other things the had learned to doubt the essential kindness of men.' She knew something; of JoHaa Haver holt's reputation with women. It was not a good reputation. Feeling suddenly let dowa and dispirited, she watched him a he scribbled a check and handed it to Mrs. Syeott. He rose then and said, "Where is your coat, Miss Warren? HI take yon home If I may." Patricia flushed uncomfortably. 1 didnt wear a coat," she said. "I hate to bother too. It's only a step." "Rot X want to take yon home." It was the twenty-seventh of De cember. Outside the night was raw and blustering". Patricia did not wear a wrap because she owned none. The two of them, the SBaa la his heavy coat and the girl in her thin shabby silk dress, made a good looking pair as they stepped into the elevator. Patricia, head high, appeared untroubled by this. In the brilliantly lighted lobby they passed to wait for a eab. It was then that Haverholt touched on the subject which the girl knew Inevitably would come up. He look ed at'her and said: "Was James Randolph Warren a relative of yours I" "He was my father," she replied, unconsciously adopting an attitude of defiance. She ended, "He taught me everything I know about cards." "I guessed that" Haverholt said nothing more. Pa tricia wondered how much more he knew, how much more Eileen Sy ' cott had told him. James Randolph Warren had been a professional gambler, a brilliant card player in the days of -whist and early auction bridge, a shabby, familiar figure often to be seen in the various dubs that were wOling te carry him along when h lost. To ids credit it might be said that he usually won. Often he won thousands of dollars in a single evening. Patricia could remember the times when her father would rush home, his ordi narily pale face Unshed and hectic, his gray eyes burning .as if with fever, his pockets full of money. "The. cards were running," he would announce to the jubilant household and for a while his family would live a luxurious existence. But there- were other times the times when he lost. During one of these latter periods, he had died beneath the wheels of a speeding taxdcab. He had left his family destitute. Pa tricia could sever forget the agon izing humiliation of - those frantic days when charity officials had come and gone, those days when she first begaa to hate her stepmother. Looking o at Haverholt the girl said bravely, "My father was a great bridge player." "I know he was though I never saw' him play," agreed Haverholt, as sober as the girL ' Patricia scarcely heard him. Her eyes were dark with memory. As dearly' as If he stood before her the saw her father, saw the charm ing, erratie southerner who had come north to make his fortune and who had, instead, thrown away his life in drink and gambling. Ha death had -occurred when Patricia was-twelve. Even before the sud den, shocking terminatioa of her childhood, Patricia had wondered and feared for her father. She could met fall to notice how all life except the-life of the green baise table had seemed te slip away from the 'tan, stooped, gray-eyed mas.' James Randolph Warren had stud ied law but his law books lay dusty and unclaimed in some storage house. Surrounded by his racketing young daughtershe used to ait at home, wearing dressing gown and slippers, a pack of cards spread be fore him. For hours he would shuf fle and deal out the four hands and always he competed chances and he talked of the symmetry and rhythm of cards. Patricia, grays and solemn, would lean against his knees while he explained to her with his own peculiar and burning enthusiasm. that In mathematics and in cards alone was there logic "Not luck, my child, but logic," he would say. "In the final analysis luck has no chance against skilL Stay lathe game long enough and faidr will tnrn. must turn. But stu pidity and Ignorance can never cen- quer skill and Intelligence at bridge whist.". , It was a strange life for a ehOd. It left Patricia with a fear and with a love of cards. She believed that they had destroyed her fatherBut sometimes over a card table she felt as she had felt tonight frightened and yet fascinated by tha beautiful and Implacable logic of the game of bridge. There flowed in her veins the blood of a gambler. She knew it. Instinctively she shivered. "What are you thinking ?" broke in Haverholf s voice at her elbow. "I wasat thinking." the sir! re plied slowly. "I was remembering." Momentarily his glance was ques tioning. When Patricia volunteered no further information, he 'diverted to say, "Can you be ready to move on Saturday?" "To move?" she echoed, startled. "Toull live at my place, of course, . he advised her rightly. "1 have whole house in Murray Hill plenty of room. Tomorrow 111 have my housekeeper clear out-a suite for you." "I'm not sure" began Patricia uncomfortably. "My secretaries hare always lived at the house," he continued serenely. "It's the only possible ar rangement. Ia your case it will be absolutely essential. Toots to be- not only my secretary but my bridge partner as welL The Brown lee Cup tournament takes place in May. Well need every available moment until then for practice, I warn you Fm a slave-driver." Patricia was discomfited by his rather high-handed manner. De cidedly she did not wish to more into his Murray H2! mansion. Hav erbolt's arguments sounded glib and unconvincing'; But at that mo ment the cab arrived. There was no chance for her properly to frame her objections. Patricia's poverty-stricken home was only one block distant, so strange are the caprices of neigh borhood in New Tork City. She had grown up in the shadow of the Sixth Avenue Elevated tracks, had played her childish games in streets whoso sunshine- was 'crisscrossed with the pattern of Its ties. To night the shabby five-story bund ing that housed eight families be side her own seemed more bleak, mors desolate than it had over seemed. A wan street light played across the familiar sign at the basement level, the sign which read. "Mrs. Lmian Warren French Oeaning French Tailoring", r Za silence the two alighted. Pa tricia led the way dowa the three steps to the basement, Haverholt st her elbow. She stepped Into the pitch blackness of a tiny vestibule. Sber was fumbling? tor the- switch Lwhea Julian Haverholt caught her in his arms. For a moment Patricia was horribly frightened. The man's mouth pressed down upon her own. His hot breath, the crushing pres sure- of Wa arms,, the impenetrable darkness filled her heart with panic. She struggled frantically, noise lessly. - "Let me go," she whispered. "Let me go." . For an instant the noiseless struggle continued:, Haverholt, ex ultant in the conflict, rained kisses upon her cheeks and throat. She heard his low, hoarse endearments and fought against him the more savagely. When she went suddenly limp and cold he released her. She flashed on the light. Her hair was disheveled, her eyes dilated, her face stricken. Haverholt stO od blinking ia the sudden lQumina- tion, his expression angry and be wildered. "Too you " Patricia began un steadily. "My dear little girl he com menced in a bored ton and then hesitated, abashed- before her hot scorn. Tm sorry," he offered un certainly after the pause. Patricia made no reply. She only stared at him with aversion and contempt. Haverholt leaned forward to re cover his stick, which had fallen to the floor. Rising, he said irritably, "Stop looking at me like that! Pm not a criminal. I told you I was sorry, didnt I? Well then "Good night," she said formally and turned her back on him. "Wait a minute," he broke in. startled. "We're going to forget this, arent we? We're going to work together, aren't we?" Patricia's breast rose and fell on a long sigh. "No," she said dearly, "we're not!" Before he realized what was hap pening a door banged in his face. Patricia was gone. Alone in the vestibule, the man swore. For once in his life Julian Haverholt was at a loss. Presently he knocked ten tatively. There was no answer. Again he swore. After a moment of deliberation he selected a card from his case. He scribbled upon it. "The job is still opea." Kneehng. he throct the card beneath the locked door. He waited a few minutes longer and then, adjusting his hat at a jaunty angle, he strode off into the night. On the other side of the door, in the shabby living room of her home, Patricia cried and cried. The rise and fall of her hopes in a single evening, the collapse of the briniant, exciting future she had pictured, was too much for her to bear. She hated Julian Haverholt Hew ahe hated him! It did not occur to her that she might still accept the bridge ex pert's glittering offer. His action followed by Ids meaningless, insin cere apology had made acceptance impossible te her.
