WORKLESS Washington, D.C., March 27.--A sharp debate arose in the Senate today over the unemployment sit- uation. Some heroic remedies were suggested, including a temporary embargo upon imports and the construction by the Government of a second inter-oceanic canal. The debate was precipitated by Senator Smoot, Republican, Utah, who quoted the recent report of the United States Labor Depart- ment in support of his statement that only 1,800,000 were out of employment. Some of this unem- ployment was voluntary and part of it seasonal, and the balance was due to ever-increasing use of la- bor-saving devices. The dial, he sald, had been so perfected that 20,000 telephone girls would he out of jobs in New York City alone. He had recently seen a newly in- stalled machine whick could be op- erated by two women, and it sup- planted a machine that a year ago had (required twelve men to oper- ate. 8 economic evolution, he sald, 90 4 of be checked hy legis- lation, but other 1hdusi¥les would e to give employment. TS Wagner (Democrat, New York), who recently declared that 4.000,000 peonle wera ont of wok, challenged 'the accuracy of the La- bor Department's report and insist- ed that 4,000,000 was a conserva- tive estimate. He was supported by Senator Simmons (Democrat North Carolina), who sald 75,000 people were unemplaved « in his State. If the same proportion of unemployment prevailed throuch- out the country it would bring tha total above 4,000.000. Senator Walsh (Democrat, Massachusetts) observed that any Senator could easily learn the true situation by consulting the retail merchants of his home town. Ship Canal Urged Senator Shortidee (Republican, California) suggested that there would be more employment for American lahor if a temporary em- bargo were placed ugeinst the im- portation of all goods from foreign eountries that conld be manufae- tured in the United States. Senator McKellar (Democrat, Tennessee) urged the speedy construction through Nicaragua of the ship ca- nal already anthorized by treaty, which would conenct the Carribean Sea with the Pacific Ocean.

The tribesmen demand, it is said, that they be ruled according to the new doctrines across the border in the Soviet Republics ot Uzbek and Tadzik. Some time ago the Soviets con- structed aerodromes at Tarmuz and Penjdeh, using native labor, which was infected with Soviet pro- paganda. Last year these tribes revolted in favor of Sovietism, but were sternly repressed by the Af- ghan ruler, Amanullah Khan, whu is now in England, It is believed here the present trouble was fomented by Russia as a warning to Amanullah not to get too friendly with the British. POPE COMPLAINS OF INTERFERENCE Rights of Vatican Secured by Treaty Monopolized By Fascist Gov't Rome, Mar, 28.---Bitter com- plaint of alleged interference hy the Italian Government with the rights of the Vatican, even as guar- anteed after the separation of church and state in 1870, was made by the Pope Sunday in an address to the Rome Diocesene of Laymen, Particular protest was made by the Pope against "the constant monopoly of the education of youth both moral and spiritual," by the state. . "We have kept silent," he said, "in order not to nrake the sitna- tion worse; but our silence has been misinterpeted." Refering to a visit of members of the Catholic political party to Premier Mussolini last week, the Pope said: "These Catholics did not find it, beneficial to pray at the tomb of St. Peter or visit his successor, us the common father of Christen dom (the Pope). Instead, they met in the capitol." The Pope accused the party of using religion for political enus, The Fascist Government, he said, had done much good but also much harm.

There was a touch of frost in the alr, The hillside back of the in- terpreter's hut was brown. But the sun was bright and warm and in every quarter of the city the people were going to their appoint- ed places of worship. The voice of the mill was silenced. Pete wondered if he would find Adam Brown at home, He had not thought about it when he left the cottage--hig mind had been so fill. ed with the object of his visit to the man who had once been his work- ing comrade and friend, But Adam Ward was not at .ehureh, The Mill owner's habits of wor- ship were very simply ragulated. If the minister said things that leased him, and showed a properly umble gratification at Adam's presence in the temple of God, Adam attended divine services, If the reverend teacher in the puiplt so far forgot himself as to say anything that jarred Adam's pecul- far spiritual sensitiveness, or fall- ed to greet this particular mamber of his flock with proper deference, Adam stayed 'at home and stopped hig subscription to the cause. Nor did he ever fall to inform the pastor and the officers of the congregation as to the reason for his nonattendance; always, at the time, assuring them that whenever the minister would preach the truths that he wanted to hear, his weekly offerings to the Lord would be renewed, Thus Adam Ward was Just and honest In his religlous life 8 he was in his business dealings. e was ready always, to pay for hat which he received, but as a iatter of principle, he was care- ful always to receive exactly what Adam he paid for. dis This Sunday morning Ward was at home, When Pete reached the entrance to the estate the heavy gates were losed, As Mary's father stood in oubt before the iron barrier a man appeared on the inside, "Good morning, Uncle Pete," he said, in hearty greeting, when hq saw who 1t wag that sought admit- tance. "Good-morning, Henry -- an what are you doing in there?" re turned the workman, who ha known the man from his boyhood. The other grinned. "Oh. I'm on of the guards at this Institutio now." Peter looked at him - blankly, "Guards? What are you guarding, Henry?" Standing close to the iron bars of the gate, Henry glanced over his shoulder beforo he answered in a low, cautious tone, "Adam." 'The old workman was shocked. "What! you don't mean it!" He shook his grizzly head sadly. "I hadn't heard that he was that bad." Henry laughed, "We're not keep- in' the old hoy in, Uncle Pete--not yet. So far, our orders are only to keep people out. Dangerous people, I mean--the kind that mignt want to run away with the castle, or steal a look at the foun- tain, or sneak a smell of the flow- ers or something--y' understand." Peter smiled, "How do you like your job, Henry?" "Oh, it's all right just now when the strike {Is on. But was you wantin' to come, Uncle Peter, or just passin' by?" "I wanted to see Adam it I could." The man swung open the gate, "Help yourself, Uncle Pete, just so you don't stick a knife into him or blow him up with a bomb or poison him or something." He ponted toward that part of the grounds where Helen bad watched her father from the arbor, "You'll find him over there somewhere, [I think. I saw him headed that way a few minutes ago. The rost of the family are gone to church." "Is Adam's life really threatened, Henry?" asked Pete, as he step- ped inside and the gates were closed behind him, "Search me," returned the guard indifferently. "I expect 'f the truth were known it ought to be by rights. He sure enough thinks it is, though. Why, Uncle Pete, there can't a butterfly flit over these grounds that Adam ain't a yellin' bow there's an aeroplame a sailin' around lookin' fer a chance to drop a monkey wrench on his head or something." ' "Poor Adam!" murmured the old workman, "What a way to live!" "Live?" echoed the guard. "It ain't livin' at all--it's just bein' in hell before your time. that's what it is--if you ask me." When Peter Martin, making his slow way through the beautiful grounds, first caught sight of his old bench mate, Adam was pacing slowly to and fro across a sunny open space of lawn. As he walk- ed, the Mill owner was talking to himself and moving his arms and hands in those continuous gestures that seemed £0 necessary to any ex- pression of his thoughts. Once Pete heard him laugh. And some- thing in the mirthless sound made the old workman pause. It was then that Adam saw him. There was no mistaking the sud- den fear that for a moment seemed to paralyze the man. His gray face turned a sickly white, his eyes were staring, his jaw dropped, his body shook as with a chill. He looked about as if he would call for help, and started as if to seek safety in fight. "Good morning, Adam Ward," said Pete Martin. And at the gentle kindliness im the workman's voice Adam's man- mer, with a suddenness that was startling, changed. With an elab- orate show of friendliness he came eagerly forward. His gray face, f the Old House PAGE NINE | EE - | | he hurried across the bit of lawn between them, he waved his arms and rubbed his hands together in an apparent ecstacy of gladness at this opportunity to receive such an honored guest. His voice trembled with high-pitched assurance of his happiness in the occasion. He laughed as one who could not con tain himself. "Well, well. well--to think that you have actually come to see me at last." He grasped the work- man's hand in both his own with a grip that was excessive in its hearty energy. With affectionate famil- larity he almost shouted, "You old scoundrel! I can't believe it 1s you, Where have you been keep- ing youreelf? How are Charlie and Mary? Lord, but it's good to see you here in my own home like this." While Pete was trying to make some adequate reply to this effus- ive and startling reception, Adam looked cautiously about to see if there were any chance observers lurking near, Satisfied that no one was watch ing, he said, nervously, "Come on, let's sit over here where we can talk." And with his hand on Pete's arm, he led his caller to lawn chairs that were in tha open, well beyond hearing of any curl. ous ear in the shrubbery, (To be continued.) G1G0LO MAKES 3400 IN A WEEK IN MONTE CARLO Interesting Interview hy London Correspondent With Dancer MOSTLY EX-WAITERS Invite Ladies to Dance in Tea Rooms and Aye Paid by Them Each Time LONDON, Mar, 16--A correspon dent of the London Dally Mall writes: "Yes, sir," sald my walter. "Next summer I shall become a dance pro= fessional--what they call gigolo. [ can dance and they say it is a pay- ing profession, Why not? Most of the glgolos are ex-walters anyway." I was sitting at an expensive teas dance in Monte Carlo, An orci: stra was playing pretty music and c¢.ory now and then elderly women were approached by slim young men in well-walisted suits who danced off with them round the room, The waiter looked curiously these young men whose ranks wished to join, Until two years ago, when an ex» cellent film of that name was shown, the word "gigolo" was looked upon askance by the English public. It was suposed to indicate an unpleas= ant parasite who lounged round hos tels and received favors from wo= men, Nowadays people realize that a gigolo is nothing more or less than a hard-working dance professivnal employed--but without salary--by various hotels on the Riviera to partner unescorted women on the dance floor, How Gigolo Works The etiquette is this. The gigolo, who sits with his colleagues at a separate table, comes up to a likely looking party and asks, often word- less)y, whether one of the women present will dance. If she accepts that dance po obligation is incurred, It she sccepts the mpext time, hows ever, it is etiquette on departure to give the gigolo 100 francs for his services. Through ignorance rather than through stingizess this is pot always done, The *client"---as the gigolo calls her--thinks that he is pald by the management. This is bad luck for the gigolo because be has no redress. There is, as far as I know, only one of these professional dancing partners in Monte Carlo who is Eng- lish, He is a Londoner and a very good dancer, I asked him to join my table and tell me about the life, Of the other five employed by the hotel, he told me two were Russians, one of them' being a baron. The others were Frenchmen, but he did not know their past. He bas been doing this for only six weeks.
