"It'a frightfully kind of you," I broke In. "You've been an absolute brick all through, and I can never begin to thank you sufficiently for a quarter of what you've done." i paused. "All the lame," I added, "if you won't think me ungrateful I'd rather be alone for the next few houra. I I want to jet things straight in my own mind." "Why, of course." Mr. Cresswell seated himself beside me. "You do vnnllv am vnn nlaaaA. mV bOV. If you feel you would be better by yourself, well and good, voni try to think too much, however. Look on it all as a wretched mlstakelhat's finished and done with, and tomor row or the next day, when you are Quite yodrselt again, you must come along to lunch with me and we'll have a good long talk." t .lured at him for a moment In lllcn'"" "Do you believe that poo- must nare upset mm quite a lot."

There are always a few fools about who like to flatter themselves that they know better than the Jury, but you can take it from me that every sensible man who has followed the case will be absolutely convinced of your In nocence. That reminds me" he put bin hand In his breast pocket "I've got a note for you here from your cousin. "What Seymour?" I inquired. He nodded. "It was sent round to my office this morning with covering letter. He expressed a wish that It should be handed to you be fore you left the court" I SLIT open the envelope with a cer . 1 tain curiosity. Even In the midst of my own troubles I had found time to wonder more than once what - sort of emotions the arrest and trial sf his nearest relative had aroused In the mind of my distinguished kinsman. The note bad been ad Irested from 3, St. James's Mnn- f-one, and was dated the previous ven iv. Xly Dear Nicholas. Since you will receive thle as soon ae you have been cleared of the appalling charge at present banelng over you, 1 hope to be the first to offer you my congratula tion! and to express the profound relief which the nen-e of your ac quittal will bring to your family and frtenria. I am extremely anxious that, be fore you take any atepa at all with regard to your future, you should tle me the opportunity of offering you my advice and assistant:. I ahall be at home tomorrow eve ning from nve to eeven-thlrly, and 1 trust and hope that you will come strnlglit here directly you are at liberty to do so. Your affectionate cousin, Seymour Trench 1 folded up the missive and re placed it In Its envelope. "What has he got to say about it II?" I asked. "H.ive you teen him or talked to lm?" Mr. Cresswell hesitated. "We had an Interview at my office. He wanted lo know whether any money would be required In order to provide for your dotpnee, but I assured him that, as far as that side of the mat ter was concerned, there was no oc casion to worry. I need hardly add that he was extremely agitated and and distressed." Tee." 1 said. "I Imagine that It myself intelligibly Just at present I'll ring you up in the morning and we'll make an appointment " He shook my hand again. "That's the luea," he replied. "You only want a rest as I've alreedy told you. Oo home and take things easy, and In a few hours you will be looking at everything In a fresh light. Remem ber you have nothing to bother your head about now nothing what ever." We walked out together Into the corridor, where we found the warder lounging against the wire netting. I am going to leave my client In your bands now," said Mr. Cross well. "We should like to avoid any unnecessary fuss or publicity, so If you can see blm off quietly as you suggested ..." Quite easy, sir," chimed in the other. "There's a way out at the back what we keep special tor that pur- ose. He gave me a touch on the elbow as though from force of bablL You come along o' me, Mr. Trench, and I'll see that you ain't Interfered with." Putting on my hat and carrying my coat, I accompanied him down the staircase. On the next landing we turned to the right, and nego tiating another passage and a sec ond short flight of steps, arrived al a closed door which was evidently our destination. My companion pro duced a key. Toller the street along when you get outside," be said, "and it'll bring ou straight Into Ludgate 'III." He Jerked back the bolt "Good-bye, sir. and If you II excuse my saying so. trust that there ain't no bad feel ing. Got my Job to do, you see, tha same as everyone else." I offered hi a my hand. "1 think you've been very considerate," I said. "It I'm ever tried for murder again I hope I shall be In your charge." His face expanded In a broad grin. and giving me a friendly grip, he swung open the door. The Or thing I did when I got outside was to search for a clgaret. It was a wonderful feeling to be at liberty again, and for a minute or two 1 stood motionless on the side walk, halt-drugged with the novelty of the situation.

STOCKHOLM. (AP) Sweden has recovered from the depression, on the Biirfacft at leant, and largely through a so-called "replacement" boom that flnda hotels buying chin aware and furniture, farmers purchasing new tractors, and the man In the atreet spending as In days of old. In aom ways, economists and ob servers are agreed, this nation of 6, 000,000 people has passed the high point of 1(?29 prosperity. Psychology Change. Most imijortant, It la pointed out, la that the psychology of the public la approaching that of the boom yeara before the depression set In. Money la being spent. Industry on the whole, la busy. The farmers, with two good crops to their credit, are satisfied. Employers end work men are on good terms. Statistics can be brought to bear from almost every angle In what eco nomists admit la an a I moist freakish situation. t;n employment Down. Only 80,000 persons are without work, or slightly more than one per cent of the entire population. A year ago about 144,000 persons were Job lees. Foreign trade has moved ahead with gigantic strides. The unfavor able balance of trade In 1030 totaled a 76 ,2 5 0.0OO. m 1833 this was reduced to 452.000,000. In 1933 to only 14, 250.000. For the first eight months of this year lmporta have totalled 205,400, 000 and exports 198,500,00. Iron . Consumption t'p. Domestic consumption of Iron, steel and wood has reached a high point, In what economists accept as a most Important indicator of an upward trend. A marked difference of opinion pre vails aa to the extent to which this economic recovery can be credited to government policy, elnce the public works program of the social demo crat government got under way only a year ago. Sweden's Immense nat ural resources and favorable foreign trade factors likewise are given credit. HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Nov. 38. (AP) Hollywood rubbed its eyes, looked again to make sure, but the newspaper headlines told the story: Margaret Sullavan, screen actress, elopea to Yuma, Ariz., and marrlea her director, William Wyler. They met only eight weeks ago. This was Wyler's first marriage. Mlna Sullavan was divorced two yeara ago from Henry Fonda, New York actor. Wyler Is 33 and was born In France. Ml as Sullavan who Is 23, was born In Norfolk, Va. HAS PLAN TO GIVE 10,000,000 WORK MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Not. 37. (AP) Senator Thomas D. Schall, Republican, Minnesota, In a letter today to President Roosevelt offered a program which he said would put 10,000.000 unemployed to work In six months. Half of them would be at work In 90 days and 3.000.000 In 30 days. Schall said, "by the simple process of producing what we consume in the United States." Remove the limitations on produc tion of augar 1n the United States. That will put 2,000.000 men to work and require erection of 300 sugar refineries. Place a duty on blackstrap molasses. That, said the senator, would create a demand for corn, driving Us price to $1 a bushel and employ 2.000.000. Raise duties on textiles, canned fish, gloss, pottery, meat, milk, fresh vegetables, shoes, electric globes. Iron and steel, copper and ccat and va rious other manufactured goods, and 3,000,000 persons will be employed. Employment of these 7,000,000, In turn, will create such demand for (products that it will take 3,000,000 more to produce them. Senator Schall explained thla was offered purely aa a constructive pro posal. He has persistently criticised the new deal. 1- .
