And to complicate mnttert Wong flo. captain, plant to eouttlt the Boldero to get the Insurance, Chapter II DANGEROUS PLANS noWERS laid blmself down and wondered If the girl wai already asleep. It seemed to him a matter ot moment; one simply bad to and out. So he lay upon bis back and nlnned upward at the star, and remarked In a cool and -asual voice: "Now I wonder it that Mies Green has gone to sleep." "II you .erlly want to know," said Ivy, "she hasn't. And It people will talk, she Is not apt to." i "The reason I wanted to know," said Bowers, "Is because I bare an apology to make. I bare an electric 'torch (or you, and 1 forgot give It to you. It Is mighty handy on a dark night. Shall I bring It to you now!" ! "Give It to me tomorrow," she said; "and If I should need one to night I'll sing out tor It, and thank jyou for thinking of so many things Ito make me comfortable. My mat stress Isn't nearly as thin and hard as you said It was." ' "Dinner was tun, wasn't It?" said 'Bowers. "I get a great kick out of Wong Bo. What a lot he knows, and .how cool he keeps!" I "Yes," said Ivy. "And what good food he serves at bis table!" 1 "Did you notice the cablr boy who waited on us?" asked Boweis. "He baa a cute face," said she, "but I especially noticed his mauve silk brocade. I wanted It." "Then you didn't notice what I noticed," said Bowers, "and maybe I didn't njtlce it: but If someone came along and wanted to bet a hundred dollars that he wasn't a cabin boy but a cabin girl, I wouldn t take the bet. Ever notice iow many young Chluanien might be the one thing or t. e other?" Ivy bad noticed that And wl o that has lived In the Orient hasn't? Bowers changed the subject. "Did 1 va you tbo feedln; emo- randum?" he asked. "No," she said, "you didn't; but suppose It Is the usual thing. Three o'clock for everything ixcept the birds. Their feed-ltns have to be Oiled all the time." "Don't the tigers get an;, break fast?" he asked. "A dozen raw eggs apiece," said she, "would be gocd for their coats but eggs aims .ilftv., and I doubt If they are On McLeod's menu." "How about the snakes a l those things that look like overgrown lizards?" "Travfl upsets those li'tds ot things," said ivy. "They probably wouldn't eat anything It we offered It to tbem. Most of the snaVes and lizards are good for months without atlng." '1 haven't bad time," said Bowers, "to give the collection the onceover. Are there any poisonous snakes?" "Nc. TO," she i-'td. "There was apnar- ' ently a very bit king cobra, but hs was so angry at being caught and locked up, that he Just simply died of It She made a throaty sound netween a laugh and a chuckle. "You should have seen Helen and the cai full of ber cousins. You never ssw such a show-off. She dared tbem to come out and they dared ber to come In. Then, to show ber contempt for them and her complete freedom ot action, she .limbed to tbe tiptop ot the mast and jittered Insults at them." "Where Is Helen, by the way?" he asked. "Is she with you?" "She will be here when' 1 wake." ssld Ivy, "but she hasn't turned In yet She Is on the prowl somewhere." Gradually the stars nd cenversa tlon ceased to he Interesting to Ivy The day, the early hours of It packed Tlth worries and anxieties, had been a bard one. Her eyelids tell heavy. It was too mui-h ot an effort to beep ber eyes open. She turned on her side, and to Bowers' next luestlon rej'rned no answer. Bowers would have told you that he himself felt unusually wide awake, but a to minutes kter he was sIbo sound asleep. Since earl) In the afternoon Cap tain Won?

"I think," be remarked In a friend ly and casual tone, "you talk too damn much." "Yeah?" said Mr. Flint "How come?" "You tell Mellcan girl Boldero bad filthy ship. Not sate. Maybe sink." Flint could not deny that hu had dona bis best to persuade Miss Green not to sail on tbe doomed ship. He bed not ot course told ber that tbe ship was doomed; but he bad, aa Captain Wong Bo sale talked too much. It be bad not aroused tbe girl's suspicions, It was not through any fault ot his own. He defended him self sulkily. "I don't want to see an American girl," he said, "or any ether girl, mixed up with a shipwreck." Wong Bo chuckled remlulicently. "Mellcan girl, black girl, yellow girl, all same. Heap nice!" "There Is one thing," said Flint, "that's got to be understood bere and now: that girl comes to no harm, not while this ship Boats, or If she goes down. When we make our get away she goes with us." "Bowers man be come along too?" asked Wong Bo with malice. Flint considered this question for some moments. He was Infatuated with Ivy. "We'll cross that bridge when we come to It," he said finally. "You Ilka that Mellcan girl," said tbe Chinaman. "I think she Is wonderful." AFTER the coming ot daylight sleep was no longer possible. Having promised not to come on deck until she was called. Ivy went below to shower and dress. Flint and Bowers, as they had ar ranged, were sluiced down with buckets of sea-water thrown at tbem by bait a dozen seamen wltb play ful violence. Others fished up fresh bucketfuls, and It the water Itself bad been a little cooler. It would have been a splendid way to bathe. While the two young men were dressing that Is to say getting Into shirts and shorts Bowers suggest, ed that It would be a good thing it they bad a medicine ball to throw around. "You're sticky enough when you wake up," he said. "But what a man needs Is i. sweat That woulu make this damned ocean "water feel cooler." There wasn't ot course anything In the nature of a medicine ball on board, but Flint said he would have something ot the kind made tor them with cotton rope. Flint's Incipient Jealousy bad cooled. If tbe truth were told, be bad not slept well during the night, and bad crept forward a number ol times to spy on tlii sleepers in the bow. Once during the night each had found that the other was awake. It Is not known how, and Flint had heard the lnterthar;e of a few dis arming phrases. A more Jealous man than Flint wuuld have learnod from this lntorchsnge that tctwnen tn big-game hunter .nd the tlger-tamei there was only the most casual re lationship. That Flint had played the spy and was ashamed ot himself wa- no proof that he would not play the apy again. At the momtnt, bia Most de- cent traits were to the fore. This fellow Bowers was obviously on the level. The crew on the Boldero werf a bad lot The sleeping arrangements wers such that nobody could molest Ivy without stumbling 'ver Bowers and waking him. Bowera had explained this to Flint on the previous eve ning; but Flint had been skeptical ot the man's good faith. He was no longer skeptical, tie bad a friendly feeling. During that first day Ivy worked out a routine tor the care ot the menagerie. Bowers had had plenty of experience with animals In a state of nature where they took care si themselves. He had also visited most of the great coos, but never when the collections were not on public exhibition. He had never In short been behind the scenes. He had told Iry to tell him what to do, and that he would do It the best he could, and from the Ori she worked him Ilka a day laborer; the work, being more varied than dltch-dlgglng or stone- breaking, was more Interesting. fCf?"f.

BY DEAL RELIEF Fourth Report to President By Executive Council Draws Sharp Contrast With Hoover's Regime WASHINGTON, Bpt. 6 (AP) Donald R. Richberg, wcretary to President Rooeevelt's executive coun cil, presented an accounting of tho government's enormous relief program today with a prellx saying that "un der the present admlnlatratlon" the Individual la Retting aid. It was Rlchberg'a fourth report to the president on the progress of the new deal and It drew a sharp con tragi between the Rooseveltlan approach and that of the previous administra tion. "Prior to March. 1933," he wrote, major efforts had been to pro. vide corporate relief. The accounting covered activities of government agencies for "relief of individual financial pressures," such as the home loan system, and those for "relief of corporate financial pres sures," as typified by the reconstruc tion finance corporation. Many Activities No aggregate figure was given, but the spread of activities waa great. "The accumulated effects of a long depression," Rich berg said, "created Intolerable financial strains upon In S 'MATTER POP VlT UpTVoO A.TUEFELU4 iV ( o c"o 11 J ' 'J I IceALPouy ) yT4iws.S,Aw3 IT WAS New TuTJE-rPol? ) "vJtfK. 7--3 " "1 b a) iil gfCTrigbt. 1934,byhBUB ' yjl TAILSPIN TOMMY Fog Doesn't Stop Tommy I tly Hal Forrest iOOClE.

"The financial distress of Individ uals' and the vast reduction In vol ume of business and national Income Impaired the credit and threatened the solvency of corporate enterprises and financial Institutions. The major efforts to meet these needs prior to March. '1933. were di rected to the relief of corporate (or Institutional) difficulties, largely through the creation and operations of the reconstruction finance corpo ration. "Under the present administration measures to relieve financial pres sures have been extended to a va riety of measures for the relief of Individual distress." . Two Measures Stressed In the Individual category, Rlch berg devoted most space to the home I owners' loan and deposit Insurance corporations. He said the horns loan organiza tion reported "Its operations ended panic in the real estate market and brought about some stability while the social consequence of preventing the eviction of several hundred thou sand persons during the period of great tension and unrest can hardly be overestimated." The RFC was credited with $7,208 -000,000 of authorizations since its creation $5,208,000,000 under Mr Roosevelt and 95,853,000,000 In cash disbursements. Richberg told the president that advances under the new "loans and Industry act" will "probably not be large." Activities of other agencies were given as follows: Borrowers Got Relief Federal Home Loan Bank system "with Us 2.698 member Institutions has made It possible for them to be lenient with delinquent borrowers." Federal ' Savings and Loan assocla-4 tions "Orowth Is fast and Increas ing." Federal Savings and Loan Insur ance corporation "Anticipated that examination and Insurance of the fed eral associations will be under way by September 15. Depositors and shareholders of eligible Institutions i are estimated to number between seven and eight million." Depost Insurance corporation "About 60.000.000 counts In 14,084 of the nation's banks were Insured ! as of August 10 the Insurance! liability of the corporation being es timated aa In excess of S12.000.000. 000." Richberg Included In the "individ ual" list, without detained comment, the farm credit administration, com modity credit corporation, federal housing administration and national mortgage associations. 4 AIDES QUIT JO WASH1NOTON, Sept. 6. (AP) Leo T. Crowley, chairman of the Fed eral Deposit Insurance corporation, announced today that E. O. Bennett, member of the FDIC board of direc tors, had submitted his resignation to President Roosevelt and would re turn to his home In Utah before the end of the week. Treasury officials disclosed that W R. Stark, chief of financial and eco nomic research, had submitted hit resignation to Secretary Morgenthau. The resignation follows closely those of Lewis Douglas as budget director and F. W. Lowrey, his assistant. . RUTH LUY DANCING STUDIO, en- roll Saturday, Sept. 8. Sparta Bldg. Phone 1545.
