"Without or with offense to friends or foes I sketch your world exactly as it goes." ......... -BYRON "A Public Outrage" Senator Wheeler of Montana declares the nomination of Roy West, of Chicago, attorney for the Insull super-power interests "a public outrage" nd serves nbtice that he will lead a fight to prevent confirmation by the senate. He says: When Fall was appointed, no one suspected his connection with Do- heny and Sinclair, Everybody, however, knows today that Boy west is Sam Insult's attorney, friend and business associate. West himself has . testified that he is large stockholder in the Insull group of companies which are an integral part of the power trust. As ex-offlcio member ot the federal power commission. Secretary west will have a decisive voice m the leasing of federal water power sites conservatively estimated to be worth more than a billion dollars. II . am correctlv informed. Insull comorations have at least half a dozen ap plications for leases pending before the federal power commission and perhaps a considerable number more which have been filed in the names of affiliated companies. . , Though Mr. West has long been pominent as a publi utilities corporation lawyer, his name has been in the news- paper headlines but once before his appointment to the cabi net. This was on July 27, lttze wnen ne appeared peiore tne Seed senate committee investigating the campaign expendi tures of Frank L. Smith in Illinois, Mr. West then testified that he had handled Insult money in the Illinois primary, . that he had been an attorney for the Insull companies since ; 1897 and that he had "always conferred with Mr. Insull as to . his investments, particularly concerning his own companies, and as to politics, during these twenty-live or more years." As Secretary of the Interior, Mr. West is head of the reclamation service. He is head of the geological survey. He , directs the activities of the commissions investigating the construction of a dam at Boulder creek, and the operation of Muscle shoals, both vigorously opposed by the power com panies. He is ex-officio member of the federal power com- ' mission which issues licenses for the development of water power on navigable streams. He is the one official that should be free from connection with the utilities and repre--, sent the public interests against private exploitation. Mr. Hoover has not defined his attitude toward power . development, but pussy-footed with generalities. Yet it is one of the great issues of the campaign. Mr. Hoover has said he stood for the Coolidge policies. Under Coolidge the lederal water power commission bas been so starved for lack . of funds that it had to suspend licensing last May and is five years behind its schedule. Mr. Coolidge gave a pocket veto to the Muscle Shoals bill, following this with -the appoint- v ment ot tne cniei attorney of the power interests to supreme power on the cabinet, thereby aligning the administration ' with the water-power interests. Is Mr. Hoover to carry out ; this same policy of using the agencies of government for tne privileged r "I sot you there." Fannie nulled coolly. -raantt.- "Arent you going to eat your eggs, aearr- rannie asked him la souc Bargain Rates We are in receipt of a circular letter from Los Angeles asking us whether we believe in "the Soirit of 1776. the : cause of the American farmer, in special privileges to jione una prosperity lor ail." n we do, we are invited to join the American party" and safeguard these principles, as we have been recommended for membership.

Fannie was consumed with curio sity as to her husband's whereabouts the night before and she could con tain herself no longer. "Was it the business engagement that wrecked you or-?" Larry had retired behind the merciful front page of the morning newspaper and his words came somewhat Jerkily. "Yes, in a way." "But how?" Fannie nrodded. "Do you know you drank practically, a whole decanter of whiskey after you got home? Goodness. Larry, I hope you're not going to turn out a drunkard!" Larry pushed back bis chair im patiently. 'For heavens sake. Fannie, don't start getting red shawl and doing the drunkard's wife act," he hurled at her. "I met a bunch of fellows at the club fellows I want to do busi ness with and we had some drinks. Had a splitting headache when came home and took a couple more drinks to straighten me out." He looked across at her ' searcnlngly, "And that reminds me. sweet one Where were you last night and what time did you get home? The old man can ask a few questions, too." Fannie reddened under his scrut iny. A feeling ot anger came over er men, and she looked him squarely In the face. "I wondered if you were going to ask me," she said coldly. "You werent very much concerned how I spent my evening, and you didn't even think It important enough to mm to me on tne telephone, did your-. It was Larry who reddened now. "Now that you're finally begun to wonder where I was." continued Fannie. "Ill tell you. I went for a nae witn Mr. Tucker.

'And I'm not going to Quarrel or argue about It" She was close to teats and Larry regarding her trembling chin and mlstv eves leaped up and made his way to her side. 'All right, honey." he said, hold ing her in his arms. "We won't say any more about it. Come on, give us a kiss." He pressed her to him almost fiercely and in his dark eves was a nine or anxiety, rannie melt ed into his arms and raised 'her mouth to his and their first quarrel was averted. 'Say.

"But, why today?" ".Well, to tell the truth," Larry replied, clearing his throat. "I'm thinking of borrowing a little money from Dad. Won't have to do it right away might not have to do it at all, but just the same, I dont want him to think we're neglecting nim." . 'All right," agreed Fannie. "I've a bridge game, but I'll start a little early and drop In at his office.' Fannie genuinely loved Larry's rather. Samuel Holt was a fine- hearted, level-headed tolerant sort of man. He had raised his son In a womanlesa home; Larry's mother! naving aiea wnen the hoy was still In short trousers, and Samuel Holt had kept the house in as near a per- lect state oz comiort and neatness as his wife's capable hands had done. There would be occasional attentions of a temperamental cleaning woman, but Larry's father had kept house for the most part. In addition to the small and moder ately successful real estate business he conducted. Had he been more the go-getter type, he could have made tne large profits his competi tors gained, but he had no desire to attain more than a comfortable liv ing. . Fannie found him at his shabby. disordered desk and she perched on nis knee and Kissed the tin of his nose, to his evident enjoyment. mow are you two young rogues making out over there in millionaire row?" he asked with twinkling eves. "Simply scrumptious. Daddv." Fannie told him. - "You must come in and see us. Please Daddy," she begged, "you never have." The kindly man cromised he would see them soon and planting a butterfly kiss on the weathered cheek, Fannie danced off to her bridge party. . see Dad?" Larry asked her that evening when he, came home with scnooi-boy promptness. "Certainty did," replied Fannie. "Isn t he an old dear, Larry?" "Bet your life he is," answered Larry with enthusiasm. "Oh, by the way, Fannie," he added, "Gong's coming over tonight. Ted's bring ing some people and I have an idea the great lover will be among those present." "Who do you mean?" "You ought to know," Larry told For Freckled Tanned Sun Spoiled Skin To reveal thn rnn '.! tnvjkllniun hidden beneath a freckled or tanned complexion, use pure mercollsed wax.

Panola's Up curled and she threw him a withering look. "Ana Is sinuous Sonla coming also?" she inquired with heavy ear casm. Larry blushed. "Probably." ... It was a gay party. TV: red haired grd did her dance as she invariably did at every party she at tended. The blonde youth with his customary too red expression, played bis toe-tickling tunes on the Holt's miniature grand piano, which they would one day pay for. Fannie, in a name-colored irock that brought a glint to the eyes of Dane Tucker In which there was a tinge of cruelty, danced in his arms and laughed up into his face with conscious coque try. Sonla Redfield, with Larry hovering near more often than not, was beautiful In a gown of clinging black, her petulant mouth redder than ever. The maid had trundled into the room a tea-cart laden with Ice, ginger ale, tall glasses and sev eral bottles with labels that miiht or might not have been authentic. Their arrival, at' any rate brought rousing cheers from the throats of the assembled guests and there had been a grand rush in their direction. Neither Fannie. In the arms of Dane Tucker, nor Larry, bending eagerly over the reclining Sonla, heard the ringing of the doorbell.
