 A pig city is so vast. Saturday night, Roy kissed Barbara good- night, but on Sunday, how could she tell whether on Sunday he hadn't met another much more captivating girl? In the same pew at church, perhaps demufely fas- cinating creature might have shared her prayer book with him After all, Barbara did not know which church Roy attended or whether he ever went at all.
 They always had so much to talk about, the movies they liked or dis liked, Roy's. hobbies, her hobbies, their ages, their past romances and their mutual friends. Barbara had never thought to ask the exact name and address of the engineer ing office where he worked. A red haired typist might have made Barbara's pale brown shair seem in- sipid, hardly worth the nickel 1t took for Roy to phone. Maybe some of his married friends intro- duced him to dazzling, well dressed and rich familied blonde.
 It had been three weeks now since Roy had 'phoned and he hadn't even told her he loved her. Probably he had just grown tired. The foolish games they played to- gether, the Sunday walks in the park, Barbara's meagre wardrobe, dainty with crisply laundered frills. hadn't been sufficiently exciting, His name wasn't in the telephone book. He'd captured her address at one of Harriet's parties, but

 It was like a nightmare suddenly become reality. Barbara wanted to laugh historically. protesting. This, this wasn't the red haired laughing siren or the dazzling, well bred blonde. Barbara clutched her fruit and flowers and presents, her love gifts to Roy, in desperation. Roy. her Roy, was going to get them anyhow. She brushed past the woman to Roy's bedside and almost dropped everything. From the bed a shriveled, sandy haired, blue eyed little man with a droop- ing mustache gazed at her and her presents with meek eagerness.
 Tt was .@. different Roy Smith I wanted" she gasped. Truly"
 "A likely story" the woman sputtered.
 'Honestly!". With a crimson face, Barbara tried to stammer her way out. As she struggled to get the door open and herself out of their lives, she heard the woman fiinging vituperations at the meek little man who was gazing wist- fully after the flowers Barbara had not dared to leave.
 With Roy back, she could have smiled at least to herself at her hospital visit. Without Roy, her hotel room was forlorn. During Rpy's courtship 1t had masquer- aded .bravely as a girls home and background. The electric plate in the bathroom had been a kitchen

 After a lonely Saturday night of waiting. jumping when the phone rang, dancing to her victrola with forced gayety, she went to bed and dreamed that Roy was very i'll and needing her. In the morning the conviction persisted. She began calling up hospitals.
 "Yes. there is a Roy Smith here," the ninth hospital answered.. "Very ill?" she demanded.
 Resting more comfortably" an impersonal voice replied. "Yes, he can receive visitors but only two at time."
 Roy was found! A wave of joy and relief flooded her, but then she must go to him at once. What did it matter if he hadn't said he loved her? What did it matter? After all, she loved him.
 It wasn't from vanity she bought gay new hat to wear. A sick man in d hospital needs cheering Extravagantly, she purchased flow CTS and Q basket of fruit and even necktie.

Now it became merely rooming house bedroom, where she cooked lonely meals for one. There was nothing she could do about it. There was no way she could bring him back.
 The ringing of the telephone no longer thrilled her with anticipa- ton. It was always another girl. Without hope, she picked up the receiver one evening and spoke into it with a dead and despairing voice.

There can be no doubt that the
American people are aroused by the
disclosures made by the Nye commit

that only the surface OF this sinking
