PAGE TWELVE REED PRAISED FDR DEFENDING DF AAA Government’s Brief Admit tedly Much Abler Than That for The NRA. By (HAKIMS I*. STKWAKI Central Press Staff Writer Washington, Dec. 18. —Stanley. Heed formerly general counsel for the FFB (Federal Farm Board), later legal ad viser of the RFC (Reconstruction Fi nance corporation) and now the Jus tice department’s staff.' is getting compliments a-plenty for his able de fense of AAA (Agricultural Adjust ment administration),,on trial for its constitutional life in the United States Supreme Courts •Regardless qf the court's final de rision. hot only New Dealers, but law yers who were on the opposite side of the case, agree that he filed a wonderful brief in AAA's behalf. AAA's opponents were monplused, too. by this formidable showing. At torney General Homer S. Cummings unsuccessful defense of NRA (. a t tonal Recovery administration) knocked into constitutional pi > the Supreme Court justices several months ago. was a weak one. AAA s fl>es had looked for another "walk over.” They admit that they ran into a' jolt in the jaw from Reed. AIDED BY BUST TALENT Not necessarily to discount profes sional praise of Reed, it nevertheless is whispered in official circles tnatl the Kentuckian the hails from MaVs viiic) had all the high-powered help that the New Deal affords, iii the preparation of the brief which has at tracted so much favorable expert at tent ion. The New Deal, say what its do-. tractors will, boasts a deal of forensic I alcn I. Evidently, with the Supreme Court's emasculation of NRA. it be- j gjm to realize that it needed to utilize | it's best legal cerebration-*—or its en tire program was in danger of nulli fiehtiop as .unconstitutional. No more of its set-ups will go by default, as NRA did. BACK OF SCI INKS? iThe administration's n oinin n I spokesman in the federal courts is. Homer S. Cummings. Its act tin! spokesman, it is gossiped in Washington, is. Felix Frankfurter. Well, he is a capable spokesman. To be sun;, lie does not speak, hut those who do speak ‘do so under his tute lage. And it is conceded, by folk on tlje other side, that they speak ef f eet i vi'l.v. The New Deal's legal chief counsel, in short, is recognized to be Professor Frankfurter —of course unofficilly.

Tallahassee, and Rivet Junction; and Jacksonville and Tampa. The trains are rapidly nearing completion in the shops of the American Car and Foundry Com pany, the builders, in Berwick. Pa. Delivery is expected the latter part of December or early in January, it was announced today by W. R. Vau ghan, Scaboatd's agent in Henderson. Prior to going into actual service, the trains are* to be exhibited at all principal points on the routes they will traverse. The “streamliners” are sixty-four feet, one inch long, and have a seat ing capacity for fifty-seven passeng ers. The basic structural materials are steel with aluminum sheathing, and the construction is of full stream lined design. They are powered by huge gasoline engines, operate on standard rails, are nine feet wide, and ten feet. five inches in height from the rail to the top of the roof. The passenger compartment of each "streamliner'’ is divided into two parts one forward of the entrance doors which arc located near the rear, seating thirty-eight white passengers, B : fy" ADAM BUSS 1 D 111 IS I Ills / ; / a l l ■on n I /in/, Larrabcc fs in i < s7 1«/»; 1 1 n ;> II". murder of Andrew Darien, middle xi'/cd bachelor who uiis s'abbed to death with a carving Ifjnir ns he slept in the boarding house ol Mice Penny, a ftcr ques tioning .Dice, the seven remaining hom dns.

The scats are of the de luxe, individual type deeply and soft ly upholstered in genuine leather, arm rests, and individual head rests add to their comfort. The interior color scheme, in three tones of green with a cream ceiling, contributes to a delightful atmos phere of rest and relaxation with bronze chromius plated fittings en hancing its beauty. Dome lights are arranged along the center line of the ceiling and have frosted, diffusing lenses to provide ex cellent illumination v.ell distributed and without glare. Roller bearings. specially rubber insulated springs are employed throughout to insure smooth riding, freedom from vibration, ifrld quiet ness. The latter quality is augment ed by an application of Nicol-felt, a combination of aluminum foil and hair felt, on the inside of the aluminum sheathing. The streamlined design is also car ried out in the exterior painting. Aluminum, cream, green, and black being utilized to produce a pleasing symphony of harmonious colors. The power plant of each “stream liner” is a six cylinder, overhead cam and valve gasoline engine, developing 169 horsepower at 2,200 revolutions “But 1 didn’t think he’d tell—” sec what you ca.it do about, it. She trusts you, and she might tell you things she refuses to tell me. See?” 1 saw, but 1 wasn’t satisfied. “Then what are you going: to do with her?” “I'm going to talk her over with Captain Murray tonight at head quarters and see what lie says. If he says to arrest her, I’ll have to do it, of course.” “Janet never killed Mr. Darien!” He smiled at. me. “And Mrs. Upbam didn’t kill him, either, nor Mrs. Starmont, nor Miss Cambridge, nor Withers, nor Hem ingway. nor Talbot! By the way, Mrs. Penny. Miss Cambridge came to me this morning with an interest ing theory. Seems that the princi pal of her school suggested it.” “1 know,” I interrupted. “.She told me this morning. About Mr. Ander son. Well, George Anderson Js in San lyraucisco, and J have his for warding address if you want it. I’m positive you’ll find him where he’s supposed to be. 11a and Mr. Darien didn’t get along any too well, but George Anderson isn’t a killer. He’s a mild-mannered advertising man, who always wears rubbers when it rains, and keeps bicarbonate of soda in his room. Had a fad for eating only vegetables. Grace was glad when he went because she alwavg had to cook something special for him. - And he never ate any pastry.” “I’ll, have his address in San Francisco, all the same.” I looked It up for him in my book and went into the kitchen. Delia was standing by the knife drawer, a puzzled look on her florid race. “You’ve got the old carving knife, haven t you, Mrs. Penny?” “Me? Why, no! I gave Grace all the knives this morning. I haven’t seen any of them since.” 1 tried to speak caimly but my heart was pounding against my ribs. 1 could "near It as 1 bent, over the knife drawer. “What’s this?” Grace came over, her hands full of flour. “Where did you put the carving Unite, Grace?" I demanded, quickly "The old carving knile, the one you sharpened yesterday!" “Why, in the drawer, of course Mrs. Penny, with the others. It was Ihe ro an nour ago. I looked espe cially, because I look out the veg etable knife.” The knife wasn’t in the drawer, but I searched thoroughly. 1 even look up the oilcloth at the bottom, although I knew it couldn’t be hid den there. , "I've been looking in the dratvei ntt tod offl m! d*j’, fiJU*.

In cold weather the “streamliners” are heated by electric, forced air hot water heaters. The “streamliners” alsQ carry their own mechanical airconditioning units. In warm climates the cooling system will be an appreciated feature—being ever ready to comfortably cool the train when Old Sol’s rays would tend to send the thermometer beyond the comfort point.

Forty-four freshman numerals were also awarded for foot ball and cross country. counting those knives. I tell you it must be there! It was an hour ago!” Grace cried. My knees got weak na 1 ioid Della lo look everywhere in the kitchen for it. Grace joined the search, too, but I couldn’t. I could just sit and look at the open drawer where the knife should have been. ; “When did you see the knife last. Delia?” "A few hours agh, ma'am. It was there in the drawer. When l looked just now. 1 thought you might have taken it away.” "1 didn’t,” I said, wearily. "Did you use the knife today. Grace"'’ “No, Mrs. Penny, but I need it now. A minute before you Cam* In I told Delia to get H for me.” We looked in the pantry, in (he dining room, on the back porch, once more all through the kitchen, but the knife had disappeared. • Grace was wailing that only an hour ago-- at 5 to be exact —she had seen it in the drawer. Delia was getting greener and greener. I knew what she was thinking about- 1 was thinking the same thing myself. That the knife had been stolen. That someone else might die “Who’s been in the kitchen since you saw the knife?” 1 demanded of Grace. “Miss Bell came in a bttje ago for some ice. yh r wanted it to bathe her eyes. I got '* ,or be? ’’ She put up her floury hands, and started counting off on h pr finger “It didn't seem Lo me that she - went near the knife drawer, but 1 had m back turned at the ice box Then. Mrs. Upham was in a little later to show me the pink jacket she i* making. And Miss Cambridge cam* down to ask for an empty bottle for some lotion she was mixing. “I found her one in the cupboard. Doesn't seem to me that either Mm. Upham or Miss Cambridge went near the knife drawer —but t can t be sure ” “Anyone else?" “Mr, Withers. Mr. Hemingway and Mr. Talbot all came in the back door after 5- They were out in the garden playing ball. 1 gave them some cookies and they stayed a few mtn ij j ® -Were any of them near the knifa drawer?’’ Grace thought for a moment. “Mr. Withers was leaning against it, | think.” * “And that is ah? “Yes. ma’am, That s ail Pelin spoke up "Mrs Starmont was down, ma'am f;^e v°rn°J ifQ &Jv COAT?
