TIMERS was only one thing to do,

his wife. Feeling very much
like . man being led to the gliillotine,
Doug turned his car and started back.
He'd 60 before he lost his nerve
Would Charity forgive him? Would

Doug meant to win her love. For with
out the love and respect Of Charity, Life
could hold no happiness.
Yanner was reading in . hammock
On the Vandersrin lawn when she saw
Doug's roadster rushing up the drive

happily, and ran to meet him. Such q

Unexpectedly In the afternoon. He
hadn't done that for . long time.
He swung out Of the car and crossed
the lawn to meet her. Yanner threw
her arms around his neck and reached
up to kiss him. But her arms dropped
when she saw the coldness Of his eyes,
the set Of his jaw. He almost pushed
her away from him.
"Why-what's wrong-darlin'," YAM
ner began in the sweet, hurt, little
voice that had always bent him to her
will.
Lets go for q drive" Doug said
shortly. II want to talk to you-where
we can be alone"
Yanner felt impending disaster. I'VE

They drove out silently. She glanced
OF her eye and saw no change In the
wooden determination Of his expression.
She cast about desperately for some
thing to say that would soften his look
but decided it was best to remain
silent.
Shed never seen him like that before.
It was situation she had no idea how
to meet. Doug drove as though he were
going to fire, still racing against the
fear that something might cause him
to weaken in his determination to finish
with Yanner. Every minute made the
job a more difficult one.
Suddenly he stopped the car With q
crunching Of brakes. Yanner sat back
and tried to smile. But the smile died
on her lips. For = second Doug sat
looking straight ahead, and when he
spoke she scarcely recognized the cold,
firm voice.
"Yanner," he began with an obvious
effort. II guess you've been suspectinR
for quite while this was coming"
"Wh-what was coming?" She tried
desperately to sound innocent and
bright.
Then Doug turned and looked at her
squarely, his face almost as white as
hers. "I'm-I'm sorry II this will hurt
you. But can't see you any more.
This-is the-end"
Yanner was certain for q second she
was going to scream out a protest But
all her training cried out against 1t.

Trading Near Standstill,
Utilities and Metals Lead

BY G.. A, PHILLIPS,

Associated Press Financial Writer.
NEW YORK, September 29.-The
curb market drifted quietly lower
today in extremely dull trading.
Activity was at minimum in all parts
of the list with the exception of utility
shares, which were offered rather
freely at the start of the session, but
there was sufficient support to limit
losses to around !. point Metals likes
wise were inclined to sag and indus
trials we're generally inactive.
American Gas. Electric Bond y
Share, Cities Service, American Super
power and Niagara Hudson, were the
most active issues and although good
resistance was shown in most cases,
the selling persisted and losses up
to p point were established.
Lake Shore Mines, Wright Har-
greaves, Tech Hughes and other metal
shares sagged slightly right after the
opening. but found better support in
later dealings and reduced the losses
to minor fractions of point.
McWilliams Dredging and Mont
gomery Ward "A" yielded around a
point and Pittsburgh Plate Glass,
Swift Internacionale and American
Cyanamid B" were a trifie lower.
Hiram Walker and other alcohol
shares were inactive and showed little
change. Oils were mixed, with Inter-
national Petroleum gaining fraction
ally, and Creole, Humble and others
either unchanged or slightly lower.
Pan American Airways gained nearly
a point.

New York Cotton

NEW YORK, September 29-Cotton
futures opened steady 3 TO 8 points de-
cline in response to lower Liverpool
cables and under liquidation and
Southern selling. October, 1920; De.
cember, 1894; January, 1886; March,
l247: May, 1855; July, 1888.
There appeared to be an overnight
accumulation of selling orders for exe-
cution on the call, and the market
again sold of into new low ground. A
fair volume of trade buying appeared
in the December position. However,
and after the pressure had abated, the
market recovered to about the previous
closing levels on covering and some
additional buying credited to mill ac-
count.
Reports were received in the trade
from the South indicating that at cur.
rent levels more cotton was being
turned over to the Government under
its 12-cent loan offer. Foreign selling,
both for Liverpool and Continental ac-
count. was in evidence at the opening
and was believed to represent old long
liquidation. December recovered from
1888 to 1898 and May from 1883 Ia
1888 or back to the previous closing
levels by the end of the first half hour.
Liverpool cables attributed selling there
largely to October liquidation which
supplied trade buying.

A furry among traders short of
oats needed to meet month end de-
liveries on September contracts led
at one time to quick jumps of about
IL cent in September oat prices, and
tended to impart some firmness to
other grains. Corn values were also
given relative strength owing to pre-
dictions of possible frost tonight in
Iowa and other corn territory. Upturns
from early bottom prices for wheat,
however, failed to hold well.
Considerable selling of wheat against

vocates of this procedure said corn
husking returns would disclose fur
ther reductions of yield in many

PICKUP GRADUAL
AT TEXTILE MILLS
Chemical, Dye stuff, Fuel
Trades Spurred by Bet
ter Demand.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, September 29.-While
thousands Of textile workers, ending
their strike. staged victorious"
marches back to plants in many
States, the mills. through their agents,
bankers, factors and representatives
here. tried to gauge the probable i'm
mediate and long-term effects of the
strike.
y Chemical, dye-stufY and fuel trades
reported better demand from tex.
tile customers. In chemicals the
price structures of bichromates. alkan
and sodium acetates improved. Dye
stuff sellers we're particularly pleased
that silk dyers had called of their
threatened strike as a result of the
settlement of cotton and woolen labor
troubles.
Fuel production. coal. gas and elec-
trio, may not be stepped up much
Immediately, as textile mills are re-
opening gradually. Bankers and mill
selling agents voiced the hope that
the usual strike aftermath, over
production, caused by the attempt of
mills to run full blast. would be
avoided.
Many Lack Samples.
Many mills lack samples to show
their Spring items to the trade Some
samples received today carried no
price tags. since new costs cannot be
determined until the arbitration board
settles points at dispute. Meanwhile.
some mills, especially northern plants,
have had orders Cancelled or shifted
to southern competitors. Although
most mills have some overdue orders,
shortages, or depleted stocks. few have
any backlog requiring sizable opera
tions for any length of time, despite
the statistical improvement in stocks
as a result of the strike.
Damaged machinery and low sup
plies of raw materials. along with the
lack of pressing demand for imme-
diate deliveries, will make mill re-
sumptions slow and gradual Some
mills are changing location as q result
of strike violence in their communi-
ties
Textile manufacturers with stocks
of goods obtained better prices the
last three weeks than otherwise might
have been realized. Finished goods
stocks were reduced. but retail stores
| reported no unusual buying because
of the strike.
Wage Losses Severe.
Labor lost from two to three weeks
Of wages, which will be difiicult to
make up. In localities from which
mills are moving. workers are faced
with the permanent loss of mill jobs
Settlement of the "stretch-out'
! and establishment Of wage eQualiza-
tions" seem to be the keys to any
permanent solution of textile labor
problems. Il work harder in less time
and earn less than got before" was
the common complaint of textile
strikers to whom this writer talked
in a recent Southern trip.
After adoption of the N. r. A. code
| some of the poorer equipped anc
! poorer-managed mills increased the
stretch out" or work load of EN-.
ployes and failed to maintain differ.
entails in wages between classes Of
work. These were the only method.
| such mills could use to meet the com
petition of stronger units in the
trade. Elimination Of work-load anc
wage inequalities will put inefhcien1
mills out of business.
