No Apology la Needed
Cabled dispatches from Europe indicate
_ the people overseas are -beginning we
more to. shake their heads sadly over Uncle
Sam’s misguided and deluded refusal to save
the world from disaster.
m For a long time it was Uncle Sara’s refus-
11 a) to cancel the war debts that convicted him
of selfishness, blindness and obstinacy.
■Rf1 Then it was his action in raising the
Hfe.. tariff rate; more recently, it was his decaion
go off the gold standard.
Now, it seems, he is wrecking civilization
Womb by his stand at the London conference. Ho
didn’t stabilize his currency, he wouldn’t
agree to a sudden horizontal tariff slash, he
wouldn’t do this, that and the other thing;
and as a result he is once more the target
for the pitying scorn of the super-civilized
altruists across the Atlantic.
The only way. in which all of this criti-
cism can do any harm is that some Ameri-
cans may begin to take it seriously.
jW:~ What we must realize is that we need
|... not apologize in the least for our country’s
course at London, Our government is look-
ing out first and foremost for the interests
of its own citizens, and it did it in what
seems to l>c hard-boiled and effective man-
ner. In that, there is certainly nothing to
- be ashamed of.
We are going slowly in the matter of
until we can get back bn in our own way and
at our own terms? Surely—and so is Eng-
land, whence a good part of this sorrowful
head-shaking originates.
We are guilty of the crime of debasing
the value of our currency. Well, France did
’ precisely the same thing about a decade ago,
cutting the value of the franc to one-fourth
of its old worth. Isn’t it odd that the French
should be so indignant at us now?

he will prick up his ears like an
horse and Wte in the fray!
By the time the recent session of . the %
legislature ended, Senator Parr had aflgar- |
opi recovered entirely froffe/the illness 1
that led to reports he woufd retire. |j
. He rgtiiement would taeunihe political
passing of a man who for iSttre than a quart-
er of a century has held a tenth of the entire*
state in almost feudal control..____________ __________
He approached more nearly to the “jefe
politico” of Mexico than any other person irt
the state’s political history with the possible
exception of the late Rryafl Callaghan.
Callaghan for years ruled San Antonio and
Bexar county with iron hand. *v
Only twice in his long senatorial' service
has Parr’s rule been seriously threatened.
In 1919, W. D. Glasscock ran against Parr.
The race was so, close that there was a con-
test Parr was declared winner.
In the last election Jim Neal, a six foot
six inch lawyer-ranchman from Webb coun-
ty, made the campaign against Parr.
Development of the country from.its ear-
ly ranching days has gradually weakened tho
hold of the old leaders like Jim Wells, Parr,
and the late A. Y. Baker. A good govern-
ment league carried Hidalgo county in 1932.
Parr is not only the dean of the Texas
senate in point of age and in point of length
of service, hut He is more than twice as old
as several of the senators.
A recognized power in politics in South-
west Texas for more than 30 years and poli-
tical boss of a large part of the border coun-
try for a quarter of a century, he has held
but two political offices hirujjrlf. His first
*‘V office was county commissioner. The rest
of his office holding has been in the Texas
senate of which he became a member in 1915.
Parr then was 54 years old, the Legislative
Manuel of that time shows.
The short, rotound, jolly-faced farmer-
stockman, Is generally known as “Archie.”
'1 he correct name is Archer.

THE NEXT morning was for
Sally a repetition of the one before
and the one before that, of all those
bright, warm Florida mornings-there
by the soa. Up when she f.'.iatly
awoke, wlih no alarm clock to Jengle
her nerves, no roommate to goad her
into getting ready for work no mat-
ter “how late she had toon up, with
ho knowledge of her duties for the
day, with, in fact, no real duties that
she could see. Then down to break-
fast, the typing of a few tetters, the
answering of the Telephone Once or
twice perhaps and that was all.
There was nothing to do then but
go ou} for the morning plunge In the
surf nx long as It was still warm
enough for swimming. Fred Proctor
hiid told her that some people
stopped at the end of November or
early in December and started again
late In March, while many more
swam all winter; It depended oh the
Individual. <*
-I’lcasurl sx ibis life was, It wax
Ircginnlofi lo destroy Sally’s xelf-
cotifldonce. for every day she found
tunc to realise what a complete sham
her position was. and how dangerous
if her real one were to bo discovered.
Yet the case of the life made caution
difficult. «
In Kred Procfor the girl saw a
threat, hut a fascinating threat.
How long, she wondered, would lie
ray her a good salary and treat her
as a member of his family or a
guest? Ho» long would he confine
In* attentions to lunches, breakfasts,
swims, short drives and pleasant
conversation? ' , *
This worry made Sally all the
more alert to discover whatever
'might be discovered of the mystery*
of John Kemble Proctor's deaih
that she could do her part and end
