D. H. LAWRENCE ON MAN WHO MURDERED
HIMSELF.
FOR PLEASURE.
(Continued" from Page 1)
People, personally, bave nearly always been friendly. Of critics we will not speak, they are different fauna. from people. And I have wanted to feel truly friends with some, at least, of my fellow-men.
Yet I have never quite succeeded. Whether I get on in the world is a qucation; but I certainly don't get on very well with the world. And whether I am a worldly suc- cess or not I really don't know. But I feel, somehow, not much of a human success.
By which I mean that I don't feel there is any very cordial or funda- montal contact between me and society, or me and other people. There is a breach. And my contact is with something that is nou. buman, non-vocal."
I used to think it had something to do with the oldness and the worn-outäess of Europe. Having tried other places, I know that is nos so. Europe is, perhaps, the least worn-out of the continents, be cause it is the most lid in. place that is lived in lives.
My Big Riddle,
POLICE DOUBT STORIES OF ALLEGED CRIMES.
(UNITED PRESS.]
Detroit, February 21-Police to- day began to doubt the truth of James Baker's "pleasure" murders around the world although they still believe in the authenticity of his confession that he poisoned Henry Claw, night watchman in the Guggenheim Laboratories in Now York City.
A strong odour of fish began to surround the "thrill killer's tales when police inquiries at points in the United States failed to coincide with Baker's own recital of how he slew for the fun of it.
Houston, Texas, authorities here failed to find records dealing with the alleged murder by Baker of a man named Honeycutt. In War. ron, Ohio, the police bave similarly been unable to find a record of the killing of Baker's step-father,
H. A Parker. "
crimes.
Baker had "confessed" in detail concerning both these alleged Information concerning other alleged slayings at such re- Amote points at Bombay, Hamburg, Manila, and Iloilo is still lacking.
It is since coming back from America that I ask myself serious- ly Why is there so little contact between myself and the people whom I know! Why has the contact no vita! meaning 1
And if I write the question down, and try to write the answer down, it is because I feel it is a question that troubles many men.
The answer, as far as I can see, had something to do with class. Class makes a gulf, across which all the best human fow is lost. It in not exactly the triumph of the middle-classes that has made the dandress, but the triumph of the middle-class thing.
"As a man from the working-class, I feel that the middle-claas cut off some of my vital vibration when I I admit them am with them. charming and educated and good people often enough. But they just stop some part of me from working. Some part has to be left out.
Life in Italy.
Then why don't I live with my their working people? Because vibration is limited in another direction. They aro.narrow, but still fairly, deep and passionate, whereas the middle-class is broad and shallow and passionless Quite passionless. At the best they sub- stitute affection, which is the great middle class positive emotion.
But the working-class is narrow in outlook, in prejudice, and nar. row in intelligence.. This again makes a prison. One can belong absolutely to ng class.
Yet. I find, here in Italy, for ex ample, that I live in a certain silent contact with the pensanta who work the land of this villa. I am not intimate with them, hardly speak to them save to say good-day. And they are not working for me; I am not their padrone.
"
Yet it is they, really, who form my ambiente, and it is from them that the human flow comes to me. "I don't want to live with them in their cottages; that would be a sort of prison. But I want them to he there," about the place, their lives going on along with mine, and in relation to mine."
Wells and Barrie."
I don't idealise them. Enough of that folly! It is worse than Betting school children to express themselves in self-conscious traddle. I don't expect them to make any millennium here on earth, neither now nor in the future. But I want to live near them, because their life still flowa.
And now I know, more or less, why I cannot follow in the footsteps even of Barrie or of Wells, who both came from the common people also and are both such a success Now I know why I cannot risc in the world and become even a little popular and rich.
I cannot make the transfer from my own clazs into the middle-class.

One reporter who wanted an in- terview was told by Baker- that Ox Fraw From WEDNESDAY, the
6th March, 1930, the latter wanted enough money to educate a Miss Elinor, Roy, a com panion of whom be recounted many adventures. The reporter indicated that he was no "Daddy" Browning, and that his personal resources would not extend to an extensivo education for other people's Indy friends, so Baker finally compro- mised and gave the interview for a cash payment of $1 together with a promise that the reporter would provide him with two 50 cent cigars daily until he is taken away; to New York.
