as words could have said it.
Mr.. Collins sat next to Edna,
and toward the end of the meal
when Maude Hanaberry was
telling how she had once won
hundreds Of dollars betting on a
horse at the Kentucky Derby,
Sharlie heard him ask her if she
had made up her mind about
Phoenix.
"Oh, I think could be per-
suaded to go, perhaps" she said
casually, and the look of relief
that leaped into his face was
like a light. He let out short
laugh, and Maud Hanaberry
stopped telling her racetrack
story to Sharlie's father, as if
it had suddenly dawned on her
that she was missing something.
"I knew you'd CO." Mr.. Col

that had settled over the table.

She turned around to her
work again wrung out the dish

the meat pan with it.
"I'll tell you something else,"
she said after a pause, and
Sharlie saw that she was smil-
ing to herself. when I first
went to work for him-the first
week or two-he didn't treat
me like the adding machine I
have since become in his eyes
He made love to me, asked me
to have lunch and dinner with
him, tried to get me to drive
home with him in his car"
Her blue eyes opened, wide.

pretended that it never hap

If he asked me to! I'd scrub

thing that I could do to help
But I wouldn't go if you we're
going to marry him. I couldn't
do it, Sharlie. I worked for him
for years when his wife was
alive, thinking sometimes that
he liked me a little and would
let me know it if it weren't for
her. So, like a lot of other
female office slaves, I kept on
working for him although
sometimes it was all I could do
to keep myself from leaning

and I knew he was crazy about
you whether he knows it or not.
I don't think he does know it,
as a matter of fact-but, any,
how, the interesting part of it
all to me was that I wasn't
the least bit jealous. I didn't
care the least bit when he put
his arm around you and held
your face up to his to talk to
you. And that was before I
knew just how poor he is, Edna.

he was a rich manor at least

At 6 o'clock when Dodie
brought her guests to supper
the two girls were in the kitchen
once more, making the coffee
and talking and laughing to-

and talked in weeks.
The table was set with cold
meat and cheese and baked
beans, and as soon as everyone
was seated Edna came in with

Final Details Undecided, Chief Executive Declares ]. Earlier Reports Anticipated Vote at Regular Ses' |i sion of City Fathers This Evening

Although Governor Wilbur L.

Mayor Frank Hayes, when talked with, stated &hat the matter of offering the Bonds for sale has not yet been finally considered. Executive Sec- xetary Thomas P. Kelly, when in- Reviewed, said that decision has been reached.
 The bill authorizing the city to Issue $500,000 in bonds to fund bonds coming due this year was passed under suspension of the rules. early last week. It went through the house and senate quickly. Mayor Hayes then visited Hartford and obtained the bill, signed by the governor.

10 ACTION ON FUNDING BONDS SALE1
Eventful Day For
 Local Catholics
Missions in Three Churches, Forty Hours Devotion
 National Radio Programs Mark Sabbath

Mission services in three cfurch- es, the opening of the forty hours devotion in the Church of the Im- maculate Conception, the usual Sunday afternoon vesper exercises and two radio programs of out standing interest nationally, com bined to make yesterday an event. full day for thousands of Catholics of Waterbury.
 The radio features Included the impressive inter denominational ceremonies in Radio City music hall during which Cardinal Pat rick Hayes, Rev. s. Parkes Cad- man, former president of the Fed eration Council of Churches, Rab- bi Alexander Lyons, former Gov ernor Alfred E. Smith and other celebrities delivered addresses. Postmaster General James Farley represented President Roosevelt. John Mccormack and Giovanni Martinelli of opera and concert fame sang.
 Thousands of Waterburians lis- tened in late in the afternoon to the weekly address of Rev. Charles E. Coughlin of Detroit. Tn view of events of the past week and the bonn ping of Father Coughlin's resi- dence interest was unusually keen.
 A weeks mission for, women closed yesterday afternoon in the Church of the Sacred Heart. Rev. P. F. Quinn, s. M. delivered a ser- mon on the Blessed Virgin, eulo- gizing her as the ideal of woman- hood. His remarks were a general on the times, the evil of divorce, race suicide, indecent movies, and immortality in general. The seniors of the Sacred Heart high school took part in a process sion and members of the class con- secrated themselves to the Blessed Virgin. The special prayer of con- secration was given by Miss Elean- or Egan.
 The closing exercises included renewal of the baptismal vows and the bestowal of the papal blessing by Rev. Edward McGehee, M. S.. Solemn benediction in which Rev. John J. Fitzgerald, pastor, officia- ted, assisted by Father McGehee and Father Quinn concluded the services.

vertising of the bonds. The $500. 900 in bonds to be sold this year however, will not now. apparently come up for consideration tonight and special meetings of the finance commissioners and aldermen will possibly be called.
 The bill passed in the legislature provided that the city could sell $500,000 in bonds this year to take care of that portion of the $970,- 900 in bonds falling due this year. The sale of the bonds is necessary in order that the present admin istration may carry on its schedule of reducing the tax rate. The $500,000 will not, in other words, come out of the present income from taxation but will be stretched over q period of 20 years. The same applies for next year.
 This action on the part of the city was necessary so that the tax rate might be reduced in view Of the fact that many property own CTS at the present time and in the few years past have been forced to fall behind in their regular pay ments.
 Several petitions for layouts and grades and lights, as well as for chickens killed by stray dogs, are scheduled to come before to-nights aldermanic meeting.

abuse of the beer selling and con- euming privilege would lead to a reaction against alcoholic drinks, fin borderline states and thus might prevent ratification of the repeal of the eighteenth amend 1nent.
 This situation reached it's acme in New York, where wet Governor Herbert Lehman appealed to the people last night for aid against a Legislature in which heretofore dry republicans sought to block a Theoretically model bill to permit tho drinking of beer without al- lowing return of the saloon and also without enabling political or brewing interests to grab control of licensing of beer emporiums.

 Tn states which have repealed their prohibition laws and which do not pass new laws restricting or prohibiting beer sale before 12:01 Friday, beer will be subject to free sale except under such re- stricuons as municipalities choose to impose.
 States in which beer bills are pending but sale on Friday is prob- able include, in addition to New York. New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut the following: Maryland. Massachusetts, Wiscon- sin, California.
 States with prohibition laws but with bills pending to ,legalize beer are New Hampshire. Tennessee, North Carolina, Iowa, Michigan, Colorado, South Carolina, Alabama and Oklahoma. The beer bills face probable defeat in several of these states. especially in the south.
 Five states have passed beer laws which will not permit sale until some time after April q. These states. with the dates on which sale will become legal, are. Maine, late June; Vermont.

Four Power Peace Pact Is Considered
 By French Cabinet
If Adopted It May Decide the Future of EmOpe-t Is British Plan Revised From Program Presented By MussOlini of Italy

lieved certain, although further re- visions may be specified first to protect the interests of the small European nations, especially those of the Little Entente, with which France has alliances.
 Premier Daladier presided at the cabinet meeting. Foreign Minister Joseph Paul-Boncour presented the British text of the revised pact.
 The French position was outlined as follows:
 1. Italy is regarded as desiring an honest rapproachment with France.
 2. The French cabinet is ex- tremely anxious to prevent the pos- sibility. of an Italo-German rap- proachment which would cut Eu- rope in two from the North Sea to the Mediterranean.
 | 3. The military and political friendship between France on the one hand and Poland and the Little Entente - Rumania, Jugo-Slavia and ho-Slovakia--on the other must be maintained, and the small nations objections to the four power treaty III US OrlBludl AUrh must be satisfied:
 4. Germany must be forbidden to re-arm on any such scale as is permitted other major European powers, although France is willing to concede Berlin equal political rights.
 The rest of the prospective French position deals with inter- pretations of the Versailles treaty and maintenance of frontiers.
 The cabinet had before 1t the in- sistent objections of Nicholas Titel- esou, Rumanian foreign minister, against any agreement in which the Little Entente did not figure. Titelesou is fearful that present borders may be rearranged to Ru- mania's detriment.
 In addition to the objections of the Little Entente, the cabinet list ened to presentation of Italy's claims as outlined by Ambassador Henri de Jouvene1, who returned from Italy to report to Premier Daladier,
 German conditions came under cabinet consideration when de- 'mand for the elimination of "se- cret troops' or "nazi shock troops" outside of the regular army was brought up. The cabinet was in. sistent that all such troops be elim. mated.
