1, 151 Charles Sumner took his seat as United States senator from Massachusetts. That was the Iay Ilcr.ry Clay made his last speech in the senate. Greeting Senator. Ecnton of Missouri who had served over a period of years, remarked: "You have come 'upon tie stage too late, sir; Our great men have passed away, the great Issues are settled. One thinks of that greatly mistaken view of the eminent senator from Missouri whenhe studies the issues which confronted, the congress in; the session which has jast closed.

While it might be said again, "Our great men have passed away," the congress did confront issues of variety and importance, equaling in some respects the problems of slavery which Charles Sumner was to devote his great mental powers 1 fV attacking. One thinks of Sen, Benton comment again when he reflects on the importance of the issues which have been raised, insofar as they are not yet fully settled but must now pass lor debate before the general public, either in campaign issuesr in the test of practical application, or in trial of their constitutionality before the supreme court Easily the most far-reaching measure is the social bill which sets up old age pensions and a form of em ployment insurance, to.be financed by levies on payrolls with contributions by employers and employed workers. The na tional government would thus make permanent its extension of financial aid to the impoverished, whether because ef in firmities of age or lack of available work. The action of the congress is by no means final. Aside from the possibility of a court test there is the question of how well the scheme will work.

There came aain from the dense scrub farther back and abreast of thent that sinister inhuman err, with its depsive note. Linda grabbed Jerome by the arm. "This island is inhabited by some tort cf monsters. Calf mas, half beasts." "WeU, come oa he said fmjm-tlently. "We can tell something about them from their tracks." As they hurried on, she said, Tm scared, Jerry.

But you'd hardly expert them tor clear the grapnel and shove the boat off' so that she'd drift away." They came to the spot where the boat had been moored.

What was most slinsr. the firmer sand below water mark was very fine and hard, and while it showed some faint im-; pressions these were of a blurred scraped sort, as if something had been dragged along to obliterate whatever had been left. On a moment's thought Jerome solved this. "Whoever cast off the boat must have swiped the sail.

It was furled and stopped and he took it by the two ends and hauled It op the beach after him." "Then it's a Linda said. "A human. But that horrid cry or Jeer wasnt human. He stared at the jungle. "Somebody lives in i there somewhere.

Her voice was ironic "Back there on the yacht I was swearing because I'd gained seven pounds on the silly based frankly on the principle of soaking the rich. As a revenue producer the measure is not expected to be pro ductive. As a rich-soaker it is merely an extension of a practice already being-carried out in the federal taxing system. For the first time, under the advice of jthe president, the tax bill is openly devised as a tool for wealth-levelling. Here again the test will come on whether it is a wealth distributing or a wealth-destroying agency; whether in its threat to capital it freezes wealth in tax exempt securities, 7anr withdraws it from the financing of enterprise which provides employment and creates new-wealth.
