back to him. Her dress was
long. It went down to the
ground. It was high in the
front and cut low in the back.
He thought she looked pale
and appealing and that she had
an alluring figure.
She thought: II wonder if
he'll ask me to go out tomor-
row night? I've kept it free"
She was busy with her own
thoughts. The record wore
down. Mechanically Sh e
changed it, bringing out q
record without looking at it. It
was a very old song, Your
Eyes Have Told Me So."
She stood listening to the
words, which were full Of
dreams, and to the haunting
melody.
"You never spoke Of love to
me and still somehow I know,
For love has made me won
drous wise, your eyes have
told me So"
He came and stood at her
side, starting the song anew
and reaching about her to
wind up the photograph. She
felt again that subtle wave Of
fire. She felt so defenseless and
thought wildly: ''Oh why-oh
why don't you leave me alone?"
Appropriate Song
He leaned down and looked
in her face: What did you
say, Pippin?"
II didn't say thing"
eyes you did"
"AI right, answer"
He turned her around and
holding her at arms length,
said: "Pippin, I think you're
beautiful" Then he touched
her face with his hands and
let his fingers loiter over her
hair and along her throat. He
kissed her eyes and laid his
lips with a long tenderness on
her mouth. |'
Afterwards. still holding her.
he said: '.HOw did you happen
to pick out that old number?"
"1t was on top. Dadee, as I
was telling you, is IN love. He
was probably listening to that
and thinking Of Christine"
He made her look at him.
Holding her face in his two
hands gently, he said: TITS an
appropriate song, isn't it?"
Then he walked out to the
hall and took his hat.
She said, shocked: you're
not going? Why you just
camel"
"It'S IL o'clock. I've got to
be in the operating room at
1880 tomorrow morning. It's a
tough case. I've got to be all
there"
She said simply: "Oh," and
walked to the door.
She went up to her room,
pulled a little chair to the win
dow and looked into a stormy
sky where the stars flew about
and great purple clouds wheeled
down the mountains.
She thought: "He won't let
himself love me. He doesn't
want to get in deep. don't
count. Nothing counts. Why
should I care? I DON'T care!"
But she felt his hands on her
face and remembered the look
in his eyes. She felt near to
him: everything about him
seemed beautiful. She loved
him-he was the only man she
would ever love-

CNA WILL END
ACTIVITIES BY
MAY l-HOPKlNS
Suspension To Be Effec-
tive Even If More Funds
Are Appropriated q
HIGH WAGES PAID
MEETING OPPOSITION

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. (UP)
The Civil Works Administrator
will start demobilizing Feb. 10,
even if it gets its requested $780,
100000 additional appropriation
from congress. Relief Administra-
tor Hopkins said Friday.
This is in line with the pm for
tapering off so that by May l the
whole project will be ended, it was
explained.
If the new appropriation is not
granted the CWA's funds will pc
exhausted on February 10. Al
ready all purchases of materials
in the field have been ordered
stopped and maximum work hours
have been shortened. Officially
these steps were taken to conserve
funs, though in each case anotser
factor Influenced the decision, 1T
was learned.
Recovery Administrator john
son and private interests have
complained that CWA employees
were receiving higher pay than
workers in coded industries doing
the same class of work in the
same territory. The CWA could
not well reduce the hourly rate of
pay, so a reduction in hours was
the only way to meet the criti-
cism. Hopkins said yesterday that
the contemplated average CNA
wage was SIP, but that it actual
w had reached $14.37. Hereafter
hours will be "a instead of 80 in
communities above $500 popula
ton and Is hours in the smaller
towns. Later the hours may be
stepped up again. ,
The order stopping CWA pur-
chases. heretofore in the h2ndS of
state agencies, means that here
after purchases will be conferred
in Washington where a closer
check can be kept.
The CWA is costing about $75.-
100000 weekly, Hopkins said;
That is between $8,G00,000 and
S9,OO0,00O above the weekly al
lotment on the planned basis. he
said.
After February 18th. Hopkins
said CWA workers will be drop
ped at the rate of 100000 every
two weeks. and it is hoped that
public works, reviving business,
shortened hours under revised
codes and agriculture will absorb
them. If this rate is kept up. it
will terminate the CWA before
the May 1 date set.

MAY NOT GET
"PROHI" POST
Ed Patton, Of Brevard Is
Opposed. By Byrns, OF
South Carolina ~,~

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-A
monkey wrench has been tossed
into the plan to appoint Ed Pat
ton, of Brevard, as chief of the
department of Justices alcohol
beverage control unit for the
Carolinas, according to special
dispatch to the Asheville Citizen.
Several weeks ago Senator Bal
ley and Senator Reynolds got be-
hind the former Pennsylvania
county sheriff and everything was
set to have him appointed. Sell
ator Bailey went a step further
and had G. T. Gully, who has been
on his secretarial patronage. APP
pointed assistant chief. Gully,
who helped manage Bailey's cam
paign, is already on the job.
When Senator Byrns. of South
Carolina, heard about the two
chief jobs in the alcohol control
unit going to North Carolinians
he set up a howl. When the jun
ior South Carolina senator speaks
in Washington his voice carries
weight because of his closeness to
President Roosevelt. Since Ba.-
ley's man is already on the job
there appears to be but one thing
to do in order to pacify Byrnes
and that is name his man as chief
of the unit. While no definite de-
cision has been made the chances
for appointment of the Western
North Carolina man for this posi-
ton are not bright.
