G. Power, conference chairman, told his press confer ence today. The conference closes tomorrow. “The various committees are reporting to the conference com mittee,’’ Power said, “and to judge from the reports we get there is a thorough and mutual under standing among all the people tak ing part and what looks like great unanimity on important phases of the problem under discussion.” WJ1.F.D. 12:15 lo 12:30 ■sums Tin moan CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE Tibby had resolved to be nice to Tommy, even if he would not be nice to her. Now this resolu tion was strengthened. Tibby d i d not realize—or would not have ad mitted it, if she had—that Wayne’s offer of the beautiful silver ship and his proposal of marriage had anything to do with tins strengthen ing. She had to make up her mind what she was going to do about it—the silver ship and Wayne’s proposal. Maybe if she and Tommy still had been friends everything might have been differ ent. Maybe if she made one last effort to go back to that old friend ly basis she might be able to de cide what to do. Of course if Tommy did not care if his old playmate got en gaged to someone else it was fool ish for Tibby even to consider him, or how he would feel about it. She had a sort of hunch, as s h e usually had in connection with Tommy, that even if he did not care—in one way—that he would in several others. For instance, Tommy might think that Tibby was marrying Wayne for his money. She would hate to have him, or anyone, think that, since it most certainly would not be true. Steena had admitted she might have done that very thing when she first had dated Wayne Courtright, but if Tibby decided to accept Wayne, his money would not have anything to do with it. She almost wished that he did not have quite so much money; it was rather frightening. She knew, deep down in her heart, that she was much better suited to be the wife of a doctor, having had that training all her life as the daughter of a country doctor than the wife of a million aire. Steena now would know just how to fill that bill; she would simply gloat in it. But Tibby was afraid she would always feel in adequate. She would feel as if she did not belong in Wayne’s world. It was one thing to visit it for a thrill, for excitement, but to live in it all the time was another. To go back to Tommy, he n o t only would think she was marrying Wayne for his money, but he would think that Wayne was en tirely too old for her, not just in years, but in experience. Tommy practically had said as much that night he had met Wayne and had showed his disapproval of him as a friend for Tibby, let alone a husband, un tne otner nand, Wayne had remarked, when Tibby ha d said she was not engaged to Tom my, that he was glad because Tommy was entirely too young. Wayne had not meant in years al together, either. Tommy was too young because he did not know enough about love. If he had he might have won Tibby, if he had picked a more romantic spot in which to propose, if he had not withdrawn his pro posal, himself, and his friendship so quickly. Wayne was experienced enough when it came to love making. How else could he have chosen such a method of approach, such means for persuasion as a beautiful sil ver ship that could take one away from all earthly things up into the very heavens? By this, too, he had employed the even more subtle measure of making her, therefore, feel obligated, almost trapped. How could she refuse such a royal gift? ] How could she dare refuse the honor bestowed upon her by a pro posal of marriage from a m a n like him? Oh, yes, Wayne knew all there was to know about love and ro mance. He had even assured Tib by that it need not matter whether she was sure or not that she loved him. Since he was so wise in every other way, no doubt he was right in this as well, for Tibby certainly was more confused than ever be fore, more uncertain, more in a muddle. She wished there were someone to advise her. She could have talk ed with Marg, but she knew hr friend was too confused herself these days in trying to come to her own decisions. She could not, of course, discuss such a personal problem, with the many personal complications, with Steena. She had no other close girl friends, ex cept back home. She had no close friend at all, now that she had lost Tommy. If only she could have talked it o,ver with him; but that WAS non sensical. She already had guessed what his reaction would be; he would heartily disapprove of her marrying Wayne, just as he had disapproved of her flying or becom ing an air hostess. Tommy, it seemed, disapproved of most everything she did or thought of doing. That surely showed plainly snough that there never could have oeen anything between her and him Sven had Tommy had all Wayne’s experience in love making. She would just have to decide without any help from anyone. It would have to be a solo decision But she could be nice to Tom my, anyway. She was so nice to him the next time he came to date Steena that rommy wondered what on earth lad happened. She did not try to run away, or act stiff and unnat iral. She seemed glad to see him, pven though she knew he had pome to see Steena, or was sup posed to have, as of course he ladn’t really. She wanted to know low he had been and how his work was progressing, what he had ieard lately from the folks back lome and how he was again. It was as if she really were in vested, almost as if she cared. 5o Tommy confided later in re pounting to Steena how nice Tib oy naci neen to mm. “I don’t see why you wonder what on earth has happened,” Steena replied, her green eyes narrowing shrewdly. “It’s q u i te evident. Our campaign is taking effect. It is working, even much better than either of us could have anticipated,” she added with a note of triumph. It was working for her, too. The last time she had been out with Wayne he had asked her what she would like to have him buy her. He had said he wanted to give her something. He had not said why, but he had been most insistent. Naturally Steena could not know that Wayne felt he owed her some sort of gift. He had taken up quite a lot of her time. Perhaps he thought she ought to have some thing to remember him by. If Tib by accepted the silver ship—and Wayne himself—he would not be dating Steena any more.

Steena had said he might give her anything he chose, because anything he chose would BE what she would want. She could have told him what she would have pre ferred, a lovely solitaire for the RIGHT finger of her left hand, for instance, but her reply, she felt, was much more tactful. Apparently Wayne had been sat isfied; maybe he had been flatter ed, as she had wanted him to be at her leaving the choice and se lection up to him. He had assured her that she would receive the gift the following week as he would at tend to it almost immediately. This certainly looked as if Wayne—as well as Tibby, from what Tommy had just recounted —were waking up to the fact that if he had serious intentions he ought to be getting around to de daring them. Steena had let Wayne know that she had been getting a rush from young Dr. Dare. She had implied that it was a very serious rush that undoubtedly would lead to even more serious complications. “The poor boy,” she had told Wayne, “has lost his head. I don’t know what I am going to do about him.” She had said it lightly, but there had been her dates with Tommy in proof, and the funeral smell in the apartment, and the phone calls each day, which she also had reported. “It seems to me then,” Tommy said, bringing Steena abruptly back to the present and face to face with the future, “that we ought to cut this all hut, this cam paign, as you call it.” The truth was that Tommy was sick of it— having to remember to phone Steena every day, to order flow ers, which she had insisted be charged to her account at the flor ist’s, to pretend to come out to see her when he only came in hopes of getting a glimpse of Tibby. He not only was sick of it, he did not like it, since he did not like deceit in any form or fashion. “That would be the worst thing we could do!” Steena declared with absolute conviction. “You just leave everything to me, as you have, Tommy. I promise you I’ll fix it.” She had a plan that would indeed fix—and settle— everything for each of them, 4 (To Be Continued) Navy Employs 103,909 Civilians In March WASHINGTON, May 21—<M— The War and Navy departments added 103,909 civilian workers to their rolls during March, as the total of civilian employes in the executive branch of the govern ment reached 1,929,074, the Civil Service commission announced to day. The March payroll in the executive branch totaled $309,764, 679. The total increase was 120,888 for March, accounted for princi pally by the 79,116 new positions in the War department and 24,793 in the Navy. Assuming a continuing rate of hiring, the total of executive branch employes today would ex ceed 2,100,000. This does not in clude legislative or judicial em ployes or persons in the armed services.
