Everything he has-donen the year he-sat in his great, walnut-panelled, air-conditioned office has been dominated by sad quirk of fate, and his ceaseless strug- gle against it. One consuming urge has controlled him, to give a core of reality to hjs mantle of eminence. To date the results have been negligible. But not because of lack of effort or desire.

Immediately Uncle BJJlie was taken to the Shelbyville jail and he and bis brpther had a most affectionate greeting, both weeping for joy on each other's shoulders.

The Bedford sheriff, Thomas Gant, immediately released Felix Martin and the two negroes Ea Blanche and Sam Mayes, who were charged with the supposed killing and ((isposing of the body of Billie Martin, this release being made without waiting for a formal court order. The negro woman, Nina Fieemarv Sophia Johnson Mary Anfl. Blanche the wife of Ed Blanche, were held for further investigation. When questioned about his wanderings since New Year's Day, BiUie Martin 'said he left home that night after turning his team in the stable, anJ walked all the way to Columbia befonj daylight, then spent som time in Obion, Union City, and Hohenwald, then crossed into Alabama and visijbed Florence4, Sheffield, Decatur, Athens, Birmingham and Mobile, Then, having seen enough of the world outside turned his steps homeward, being recognized and picked up yesterday afternoon and brought here yesterday mornjng.

He told. Roper to keep hands off, threatened to move his quarters 4to the old Patents, office.

Roper ceased his frontal attack, but organized an Industrial Advisory Council, made up of potent big business to propound suggestions for economic recovery. At its first conference Gerard Swope-, wily head of General Electric, tincork-ed a scheme to turn the NRA' over entirely to the tender mercies of industry. Roper smiled. But' the President did not. The idea was brushed aside.

And so it has gone. Roper has had to stand by, hands folded, while the hectic, historic New Deal marched by. It has been tragic; all the' more so because Roper is an excellent orgapizer, ne of the best executives in the Ad' ministration. ---1 Ha has many excellent qualities. Ope of them rare in the Roosevelt Cabinet -is his ability to "take itt He can fctan up under criticism with a smile, In reply to General Johnson's savage statement that he would not work under Roper, the latter put his arm around the irate cavalry officer, and before a public press conference announced: "General Hugh Johnson, National Recovery Administrator, under Th President." 1 Roper has a sense of humor and his stories about the difficulties of get ting along with General Johnson at tjmes have convulsed the Cabinet.
