H. P. Blandy, chief of the ordinance Bureau of the United State Navy, who broadcast an address over an NBC network from “somewhere in the Pacific theater of operations. Industrial workers and the armed forces are “one great team,” Admiral Blandy said. He assured workers they would be gratified if they could see how smoothly the weapons they create function in Naval warfare. Fighting men, the Admiral con tinued, do not understand why the haggling of a contractor over prices or a jurisdictional dispute between unions 'Should be allowed to hold up the production of the weapons they need. “We are up against the toughest enemies in the world,” he said, “amid this war is going to re quire everything we can put on the ball.” -V TUNG OIL SUBSTITUTE Castor oil is used extensively in various parts of the European con tinent as a substitute for tung oil. SYNOPSIS BARBARA WISTER, former ac tress, finds herself a widow at 27, .when her husband dies. Her only friend in the small town of South Wintridge, where she lives, is DR. TONY BRADSHAW, a young pysician. Owner of the town’s only big business is TOM KILCRAN, whose daughter, PAMELA, and wife, CLAIRE, are haughty, cold and selfish. * * * YESTERDAY: Barbara declares that she is making her own des tiny now. CHAPTER SEVENTEEN Young Dr. Bradshaw wore his dinner clothes with the ease and grace that comes from a complete lack of self-consciousness. But when he had given his battered hat and old coat to the Kilcran butler and was left alone in the great hall that divided Stormwold. he was conscious of a sense of nervous anticipation that was un familiar to him. It was the com ing meeting with Tom Kilcran that induced it. He was not at all sure that the social approach to the mill owner was a wise one. He stood a trifle uncertainly be ior the bright fire that crackled in the hearth. Should he, he won dered, follow the butler or wait to be retrieved? He looked in the mirror above the hearth and pass ed the palm of his hand over his hair, pulled down his dinner jack et and added another eighth of an inch to the display of his pocket handkerchief wit frowning concen tration. “You'll more than do. Doctor!” Pamela’s throaty voice was be nign and slightly amused. She spoke from the stairs where she stood midway. Tony looked up quickly and said, “Thanks.” He gave her a half-embarrassed grin, looking up at her and running his quick glance from the top of her head, where her haii was drawn, into a black snood, and dowa*. the slim length of her encased in lusterless black. She looked inches taller and at least five years older than when he had seen her in the book shop. She stood motionless, prettily posed against the background of the wide, maroon-carpeted stairs, completely aware of what he saw and was thinking. “Well,” he said, “do you come down or do we sit on the stairs?” She pouted. “You were supp osed to say, ‘Very nice picture you make, Pamela’.” He did his best to look crushed. 'I was afraid to say anything. You’ve looked in your mirror and it must have told you more than anything I could say.” “You’re doing better. Come up. Tony. Father’s busy in the library and Mother isn’t dressed yet. Be sides, I want to have you alone for a little while. We’re going to have cocktails in my sitting room.” They went up the stairs together and into a small pine paneled room. There was a great deal of cream leather and gleaming chro mium and a pair, neige rug four inches thick on the floor. Tony cast an uncomfortable eye on the modern furniture that first appall ed and then surprised him by be ing extraordinarily comfortable. He tried a chair gingerly, then got up and wandered around the room looking at the strange and interesting prints with frank curi osiyt and stopped in front of some thing that he thought might be a pink seal balancing a red ball on its nose. “It’s Picasso’s ‘Woman in an Armchair’,” Pamela told him, seating herself before a glass ta ble with chromium legs. Reynolds had brought in a tray with two glasses and a glass shaker filled with amber fluid. This Pamela stirred slowly. “Must have done it under anaes thesia,” Tony said. “Want any help with that?” She shook her head and poured the liquid into the two glasses with swift gestures, filling each to the brim without spilling a drop. Tony’s admiration was pro found. “Quite an expert, aren’t you?” She gave him a glass. “Ought to be. I learned that trick from Harry, chief bartender at the Ritz bar in Paris, a long time ago, when I was 14.” “If I’d been bringing you up, you wouldn’t have known what a chief bartender was at that age.” “In a minute, you’ll be stroking the long beard you haven’t got, Tony. Don’t treat me like a child, please. After all, it’s a short life and you have to crowd it, you know.” She lifted her glass and touched it to his. “Here’s to the success of whatever you want most.” They sipped gravely and Pame la said, "Now give me the set-up so we can plan our campaign.” Tony put down his scarcely touched glass. “There isn’t any set-up. The town needs a hospi tal. The biggest part of the town is made up of mill people and it’s my job to take care of them. I think I can do a better job with a hospital. Therefore, I’ve asked your father to see that we get one. That’s about all there is to it.” And you ve got the whole thing worked out?” “Down to the last swab. It’ll cost S150.000.” He told her every thing and more, without mention ing the cases that made the neces sity urgent. When he stopped, she encouraged him with intelligent and interested questions. They were on their second, neglected cocktail, and Tony was deep in his subject when Reynolds came to the door to say that dinner was served. “We won’t talk about it any more tonight, Tony,” Pamela said as they went downstairs. “I’ll sound out Father to see what hk real reactions are and we’ll plot] from there on. You see, he doesn’t suspect that your presence means anything more than . . . than . . She let her voice trail off and managed a quite convincing show of shyness. “But, look here, if I’m here un der false pretenses . . “Nothing more,” she said a tri fle tartly, “than that I’ve snagged the most attractive bachelor in town for dinner and bridge.” Tony tried — and felt that he failed miserably, unaware of his success—to look like ^a most at tractive bachelor when he was presented to Claire Kilcran. Tom Kilcran offered his hand and said, “Good evening, Bradshaw. “Glad to have you with us.” DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1. Girl's name 5. Chafe 9. Medieval helmet 11. English district 12.

He took Pamela’s mother into dinner and sat at her right. He tried to remember details of the handsome decor of the dining room, the delicious food expertly served, the conversation that float ed easily across the flowers and lace and silver during the leisurely dinner because he knew that * idie would be waiting up with avid cu riosity to hear about it. But these things might have been no more than words printed on a hastily skimmed page, because his mind was at work on the things he meant to say to his host when the cigars and port arrived and they would be alone. It was after nine when Claire and Pamela rose. Claire turned back at the door to say, “Don’t be too long. We’re anxious for some good bridge. Doctor.” ! Tony felt that Pamela’s gaze sought his, and looked at her. “Don’t talk business tonight,” she warned, smiling. There was a slight emphasis on the last word, reminding Tony that he was not to bring up the subject that had brought him to Stormwold. (To Be Continued) -V WAR SHIPPING HEADS FLAYED CIO Union Official Charg es Administration With Dilatory Attitude NEW YORK, Aug. 23—IJFI— Harry A. Morgan, vice-president of the American Communications Association tCIO), today charged the war shipping administration with “dilatory handling” of a wgge dispute between the union and eight major tankship companies. Pointing out the union has adopt ed a “no strike policy,” Morgan in a letter to Admiral Emory S. Land, administrator of the war shipping administration, asked that a conference be called be tween the ship operators con cerned, the union and the WSA at the earliest possible date.” Companies involved are the American Petroleum and Trans port corporation. Gulf Oil corpora tion, National Bulk Carriers in corporated, Pan American Petrol uem and Transport corporation, Phoenix Steamship corporation, Sinclair Refining Company, the Marine Department of Spencer Kellogg and Sons incorporated and Tankers Oceanic Steamship corpo ration. Morgan said the union, on behalf of Marine Radio officers employ ed by these companies, entered into wage negotiations with the employed on December 17, 1941. On June 25, 1942 the employers, Morgan added they were only agents of the war shipping ad-, ministration and that any commit ments would have to come from that agency. Morgan said six weeks after the dispute was submitted to the WSA, that agency announced it had no jurisdiction in the matter. _\r 74 Negroes Arrested For Handling Whiskey CHARLOTTE, Aug. 23—(#1— Po lice here arrested 74 negro men and women yesterday as fast as they stepped from buses. The men and women each had eight pints of whiskey. They had made the twenty-mile trip to Ft. Mill in the oasis of South Carolina via bus. At the police station the 74 made bond of $20 each. It’s perfectly legal to bring eight pints, or one gallon of legally bought wiskey into a dry county of North Carolina provided it is for your own consumption. But the police are going to try to prove that the 592 pints_or most of them—were imported for sale. OUT OUR WAY --- — _______ By J. R.
