- Much speculation has centered
around this volume and the motive
of the man who, by his writings,
has made of Arabia a wonder

It Is the famous 300,000-word

admit, however, that there moy be
some difference in its prefatory
matter and in a few other details.
The. 300,000-word edition (if
"Revolt In the .Desert," so far ns
is known, never came to1 the
United Stales. One' story has It
that the orililnnl manuscript was

station, .nnd that the short popu

There is no lepal tie that com
pels Putnam to keep this edition
secret, but lJtwrence s request will
be respei-ted. The author stated
when he forwarded the book to
the library of congress that the
British museum already had ex
tended him such a courtesy.
Ot the edition deposited In
Washington, only sufficient copies
have been printed to warrant is
suance of a copyrlKht.
There Is another treasure In the
library that will not be available
to the puhllc for many years. Five
or more strong boxes, containing
what Is expected to add the last
strokes to a futl length portrait
of the great Abraham Lincoln, are
guarded with the greatest care.
It will be In the year 1947 before
the seals that bind theso port
able vaults may be clipped and
their contents examined.
Request of JjIiicoIu's Sop
Hoberl Todd Lincoln, the non of
the emancipator, willed thene
boxes to the library under the
condition that:
Kor 21 years after my death,
these boxes shall' not be oponed."
More than , 10.000 pieces ore
believed stored ' Ip theso boxes.
Their contents and significance
never have been Vevealed.
Home' Idea, however, as to how
Important they are may he had in
the care and precautions taken
by the son before his death. No
stone was left unturned by him
to make sure that the terms of
his will would be carried out to
the letter.
They are letters and papers
handed down from father to son.
The son conferred with Putnam
many times before his death, nnd
received the assurance from the
librarian that the utmost nccrecy
wmld be observed.
Historians Impatiently await the
day when the seals will be broken.
confident that the many obscure
facta now surrounding the mar
tyred president will be clarified.

KEW YOKK. Harlem has be
come accustomed to . entertaining
diversion seekers In Its night
clubs, but the
real revels of
the ixiBfoeR
the rent parties
are barred to
whites.
The rent
party is an or
giastic develop
ment of recent
years. Little
has been known
about It out
side of Harlem
except by wcl-
n chard a. mas sock S a, r o workers
who have noted Its effects on
family life. It Is unlikely thut
any person has ever witnessed
one as ft' white man. Wallace
Thurman, negro writer, says In n
novel, "The Blacker the Berry,"
that white people must pose us
negroes to gain admittance.
Outsiders,, however, will .see a
Ktage version In a, pluy written
by Thurman and Jourdun Happ,
and tilled after the section known
as the m.'o's haven.
Itltous Pastimes
This reporter first heard of rent
parties three years ago from a
Quakeress, a gentle woman- whoso
dlsiigrcoable duty it is to help
untangle domestic difficulties re
sulting from them. Their pur
pose, as the name implies. Is to
ralso money when the visit of
the landlord Is Imminent. Living
quarters are converted Into Im
promptu pluces of pleasure for n
night and tickets ore sold on the
street. The usual price Is tit
cents.
The fun, the Informant unlit, Is
neither good nor clean. It Is nl
ways a Itacchanallan spree, In
which usually a half hundred men
and women, mostly strangers, en
gage in promiscuous drinking and
dancing.
Because It Is suh-rosa, the rent
party presents n dlfflruit prob
lem to the authorities. They are
handicapped, too, by tho conges
tion of 250.000 negroes In nn
area about tt hair mue .wiuo ut
Its base and extending for a mile
nort hof 12&th street.
Congestion Kffects
On the surface Harlem Is all
gaiety. The streets swarm with
singing, chattering, lounging folk.
Stores are filled with shoppers,
some of whom are buying "goofer
dust" and other charms consid
ered potent In personol affairs.
At night Jazr. blares forth from
clubs" where the Jaded rlci from
outside find a new thrill.
But underneath this surface of
merriment, social service organi
zations have found conditions not
so- carefree nnd gny. Referring
to tho migration of negroes here
from southern slates and tho
West Indies, a negro child study
committee reports:
Families whose background
hod been a simple, rural plan or
work and life were suddenly In
troduced to the rigorous northern
llmoto and the exigencies of a
metropolitan community . . . The
areas of residence have expano-
id, but not rapidly .enough In
accommodate the Increase. Tho
results have been severe over
crowding, rent exploitation, and
serious disorganization of family
life."
To maintain a Blender
figure, no one can deny
the truth of the advice:
"REACH FOR A LUCKY
INSTEAD OF A SWEET."
