CABINET APPOINTMENTS
On May 22 an editorial "short" appeared in this column in
which we said :
To meet the preaent emergency President Roosevelt it said to
have invited the 1936 Republican candidates, Landon and Knox to
enter his cabinet as secretaries ol war and the navy, respectively.
Naturally, in a jam such as the present Mr. Roosevelt would torn to a
couple of good Republicans.
For some reason the plan hung fire at the time but yester
day it became a reality with the name of Henry .L. Stimson
substituted for that of Mr. Landon.
Politically this action by the president has interesting im
plications. It must mean, for one thing, that Mr. Roosevelt
does not intend to run for a third term for, as Mr. Landon has
pointed out, these two Republicans would hardly ally them
selves with an administration seeking to perpetuate itself in
power in opposition to a fundamental belief of the party to
which they belong. Each has been an outspoken critic of the
New deal. Each, as with all of us, is ready to join fellow
Americans in defense of the country. Neither can feel that
coalition for defense requires the continued presence of
Franklin D. Roosevelt in the president's office.
Considered in connection with the recent appointment of
the seven-member defense council the naming of these two
sound Republicans is almost amusing. For years President
Roosevelt castigated, criticized, condemned business but when
the war emergency developed he called in leaders from some
of the most important businesses in the country. Now, with
the situation becoming more critical as each day passes, he
turns to the opposition party for leadership in the army and
the navy.
The Stimson appointment is especially fitting. Mr. Stim
son has had experience in both the state and the war depart
ments. His ability is great, his record distinguished. Mr.
Knox has never had cabinet position but his experience as a
newspaper publisher has qualified him for this new service.
Mr. Roosevelt is fortunate in having been able to persuade
these men to join his cabinet. The country is fortunate in
their willingness to serve.
COMPULSORY TRAINING
This newspaper stands with President Roosevelt in the
plan for compulsory, universal government service. The crises
of the future that this country faces will demand knowledge,
training, discipline, organization, cooperation. The training
of our youth that is proposed is essential to meet those crises.
Opponents of the plan will argue that it is undemocratic,
that it savors of Hitlerism and means another step toward the
toss of our American liberties. Instead of being undemocratic
fcuch universal service would be the essence of democracy. All
eligible would be associated in a common cause without re-'
gard to background, environment or standing. Under the plan
we would be following the example of those European states
that are even better democracies than our;. We approached
It in trie world war draft but there we selected fighting men
only. The president's outline of the prospective program
shows it to cover a much wider field.
With the experience of the selective draft and all the plan
ning that we have been led to believe has been done one might
suppose that all that was now necessary would be to turn to
drawer A in cabinet one and pull out the plan. Mr. Roosevelt
indicates otherwise. So be it But now the business is started
let's get it going. Time is important.

Yesterday: After her auarrel with
Gusty, Francie assumes a languid ! swept out of the door and was set

Weston finally agrees to drive to
Hollywood. First night out, Francie
is surprised when a roadster drives
up. And waving to her is Gusty!
CHAPTER V
Was Gusty really going to Holly
wood? This Question crashed throush
i Francies slumbers and sent her out
mto the pink, clear morning before
Aunt Hat was awake.
She strolled along the boardwalk
that led to the small restaurant can-
nectrd with the cabin camp. Her ;

simultaneously, enormously.
As she entered the restaurant i
familiar voice smote her ears. "Glu
He stared at her. Francie,
slim in j
blue slacks, with a cherrv-red scarf
over her amber hair, stared back.
Color swept into her cheeks and her
brown eyes flashed.
"Well, well, so you're still follow
ing me? Gusty said knidly.
Tie? Following you?" Francie bit
her lip. "I'd say it was just the other
way around.''
Gusty winked at the waitress. "She
loves me," he said, jerking his head
toward Francie.
The proper thing, Francie felt,
would be to freeze him with a glance
and depart But she couldn't do that.
Not with simply dozens of questions
buzzing through her head. She
choked down her pride and icated
herself at the counter.
Gusty meanwhile was attacking a
'pair of enormous fried cakes. Fran
cie, her appetite gone, made listless
passes at her waffle.
Gusty finally spoke: "Gonna listen
to me broadcast Francie? Maybe I
can get tickets so you can be in the
audience."
"1 happen to have some plans of
mv own," Francies retorted.
"Okay, don't be nasty about it"
Francie put down her fork. "You're
really going to try to get to Holly
wood?" "Dam right," he declared. "You
know, Saturday night after you tried
to chisel "
"I 1 didn't!"
"All right you didn't. Anyhow, I
got to thinking. 'Gusty,' I said to my
self, 'you won't get another chance
like this. What's a measly 15-a-weck
job compared with the big time?"
"Gusty! You you didn't quit your
job?"
"flight, Sugar. Just like that"
"But you haven't enough money
n . ." Frencie eyed Gusty's wrinkled
slacks and polo shirt. "I'll bet you
slept in the car."
Sure, why not? Maybe I am a
little light on the old do-re-mi, but
I'll make it" Gusty slid off the stool
and stood by Francie. "Come on.
Sugar, don't be a sorehead. You tried
to get the ticket. I was too smart for
you. Let's forget about it and be
friends. I got a forgiving nature."
Francie gasped, but before she
could retort her father and Aunt Hat
entered. Aunt Hat ignored Gusty.
Mr. Wcslon gave him a friendly clap
on the shoulders.
"Glad to see you, son. 1 suppose
you'H be leaving us today?"
"No, sir," Gusty grinned. "I'm not
pouring the coal to the old bus. 1
kinda figure I'll stick close to you
folks just in case you huve trouble
or something.
"Well, now, that's kind of you,
Gusty," Mr. Weston said.
"You see. I thought mayhe, if you
don't need Francie to drive, she could
ride with me today. We can meet
you wherever you're going to stop."
"It's agreeable with me," Mr. Wes
ton said, "but at the moment the lady
seem disinclined."

car. She tilted her nose skyward as
Gusty approached.
"Come on. Sugar, get in a good
car."
"No, thank you!"
"But it's no fun riding alone
"Talk to yourself,'- Francie advised
icily. "You seem to enjoy the sound
of your own voice.'
Gusty shrugged, moved reluctant
ly away. "So long."
With a sigh. Francie watched him
go. It was awfully hard to be nasty
witn uusty. the had to keep remmd
ing herself of Ihe selfish wav he had
acted about the ticket. . . .
J With Frnrwa driving lrtv twin
Gusty's old roadster behind. In the
Dae seat Aunt Hat was curious
about Gusty's presence.
"Francie, dear, have you any idea
why that boy should be going to Hol
lywood?" Francie pretended to be occupied
with the road. "It it's rust one of his
crazy ideas, Aunt Hat."
Mr. Weston said, "It's more than
that if you ask me, Francie. The boy
hasn't much money. He must be
pretty sure that ticket's on the level."
"But he hasn't" Aunt Hat drifted
into silence.
Francie could see her aunt's face
in the rear view mirror. It was puck
ered with thought. Tonight, she
promised herself, she would tell Aunt
Hat the truth. But what if there was
still a chance of getting the ticket
from Gusty? It was a wild, impos
sible idea, yet she couldn't rid her
self of it
They saw no more of Gusty until
noon when he pulled alongside of
them at a roadside barbecue. Gusty
was accompanied by a shabby man
whom he proudly introduced as
"Blubber."
Blubber, a smart broad individual
with a buttery complexion, had
marble-round eyes that rolled shift-
ily away from the directness of Mr..
Weston s gaze.
"Glad to meet yousc," Blubber
mumbled.
"He's thumbing to Amarillo," Gus
ty explained with a triumphant look
in Francies direction. "And is he
swell company!"
"I can imagine," Aunt Hat said
dryly.
"He's a musician, too, aren't you.
Blubber?"
"Sure, kid. Let's eat"
. "He's good on the old gHtar, all
right," Gusty went on. "Tonight
we're having a little jam session
How about it, Blubber?"
Blubber's rolling eyes came to res'
on Aunt Hat's two-carat solitaire. H
nodded dreamily. "Sure, kid, a jam
session. Let's out "
Gusty and Blubber moved to Ihe
counter. Mr. Weston bent tows1

Francie, spoke in a whisper "Fran
cie, I want to get Gusty away from
that fellow without arousing his sus
picion. In a few minutes you call him
outside."
"Bui. Pops, I don't"
"Francie!"
When John Weston used a certain
tone, neither Francie nor Aunt Hat
ever anrurd with him. A moment
later Francie obeyed, and Gusty fol
lowed her outside.
"Decide to give yourself a break
and be friends?" he asked.
"I have not!" Francie retorted.
"Pops wants to talk to you."
John Weston stopped ostensibly to
light his pipe. "Gusty. I hate to med
dle, but I'd advise you to get nd of
that fellow."
"Blubber? Why, Mr Weston?"
"I've been looking men over a long
time, son. 1 won't say your friend's a
crook, but he is a bad rbk. It would
seem you're financing him?"
Gasty's donkey iauah a as a trifle
subdued. "I'm just staking him to a
couple of meals. He's got money and
a job waiting at Amarillo. He's gonna
pay me back with 19 bucks to boot.
I can use that dough."
"And he can use yours," John
Weston said. "Well, keen your oves
open. Gusty."
Gusty said, "Don t worry. Blub
ber's okay. Gosh, any guy that can
send a giltar like Re does . . ."
''Sen dm a guitar. 1 fear, is no cri
terion of honesty." Mr. Weston walk
ed away.
Without thinking. Francie said.
"Please take Pops' advice, Gusty."
Ukay, Sugar, 1 II ditch Blubber
, if you Tl ride with me."
1 will not!" Francie flung herself
away from his in a fury.
The tourist cabins where they
stopped that night were set back
among tall trees. At bedtime Mr.
Weston left Francie and Aunt Hat
and retired to his own cabin next
door.
For a long time, Francie lay with
her arms behind her head thinking
of Gusty. She didn't care what hap
pened to him, of course; still, the
memory of Blubbers ugly face gave
her a sinking feeling In her stomach.
And then, as if to reassure her,
there came through the open window
the thin, sweet voice of Gasty's
trumpet Gusty was improvising
weirdly against the rhythm beat of a
guitar. He was camped nearby and
,u w Francie slept with the
music in her ears.
A sound awakened her. At first she
thought it was only the wind rustling
through the trees. And then she
heard it again. Frozen with terror,
she let her eyes roam around the
room, bringing the doorway into
view. Silhouetted aiiainst the moon
light Francie saw the bulky outline
of a man.
