Washington ticker reports indicating
loan cotton would be released shortly

AT these levels trade buying covering

drawing a pen and pad from her
purse she wrote:
Dear Dix-.-I do not feel the need
Of any explanation here and I am
sure you do not require it. We do
not love each other any more. More
than that, there is nothing to say.
Lets forget yesterday with our
plans for tomorrow to be spent to-
gether. I am happy for both Of us
that we have learned now. Do not
feel that you have failed me or that
I have failed you.
Lets only remember that once we
were happy and that sincerely
hope that the tomorrows will not

make you happy. This is my fare
well. Sincerely, LINDA"
She read and folded it, slipped 1t
in an envelope and sealed it.
CHE waved gaily to some people
- she knew, joined two Of them
for a few moments and then left
in the twilight wondering if all her
life she was to walk into twilights
as lonely as this one. She hated
beauty because it hurt. Ard she
hated being hurt because she knew
that she alone had hurt herself.
She walked aimlessly along Vine
st and turned into Hollywood
blvd. Her unseeing eyes strayed
from shop window to shop window.
There was no place that she wanted
to go, no place that she could find
peace, no place.
Missy, this is the last bunch"
An old woman thrust a bunch of
violets almost into her face. Their
fresh, sweet scent rose to her nos
trils. She took them in both her
hands for minute and gave the
old woman a dollar.
She stood there for a moment
looking at the violets and thinking
of Pete. Pete had loved her! She
had to know if he still did!
y
CHE had less than an hour. But
, if she hurried she could catch
the Chief, the eastbound train. And
she would find Pete Gardiner in
New York. She had to do it!
She pinned the violets to the belt
of her gray gown, pulled her gray
turban on, slipped into velvety
moleskin jacket and picked up the
small bag she had packed. A tele-
gram to Beulah would settle all the
affairs of packing and renting the
apartment.
She wasn't happy, she was ecstatic
with anticipation when, breathless,
she made the railroad station just in
time to catch the train. There was

| the man while Linda was in his
Office. His invitation was COM
mand, Thorne agreed to meet the
lawyer at noon.
And so simply, the episode did
end.
There were other things that
Linda had to do that day toward
setting her world in order. And
putting the one important thing
behind her, she busted herself writ
ing checks to pay her bills. Then
she telephoned Sybil Carlson,
young writer who had come to
Hollywood fortnight before.
"THIS is Linda Bourne, Miss
i Carlson" she said. 81 heard
you we're looking for an apartment
and wondered if you would be in
terested in seeing mine. I'm going
to take a vacation and I'd like to
rent it,"
Sybil came and fell in love with
it. Could she have it quickly?
Feeling utterly mad, Linda told
her she might have it as soon as
she liked and didn't pause to ques-
ton herself or her insane desire to
be out of the place where she had
been both happy and miserable.
She wanted to be away from every
association that would remind her
of herself. She would like to take
a hall-bedroom somewhere and lose
her identity.
Not that she had the faintest
idea of doing anything of the kind.
AS usual, she intended to pursue
the routine TO her life in new
home environment. She went to
her Office that afternoon and found
urgent summons to the office of
Paul Leonhardt.
COMMITTING inside her did an
~ elevator dive from throat to the
pit of her stomach. She didn't really
care what happened that day but
summons to the producers office
brought swift unpleasant thrill.
Was this the way writer was let
out of the company? Why should
she be afraid? Her bills were paid
and she had nothing to fear.
She smiled at some one on her
way to Leonhardts office; she didn't
know whom. She opened the door
softly with cold little hand. And
then she was inside and Leonhardt
was talking to her " F.. three hun

. :" There was more but it was
enough for her to realize that Com
monwealth was renewing her con-
tract for two years.
1t wasn't happiness that she felt,
it was relief. Happiness was some
thing that she never hoped to ex-
perience again. But at least she still
had her chance to go on working
and working, forgetting.
THERE was one last task she had
Il to do that day. She had a note
to write. Deliberately she avoided
her apartment or her office. She
didn't want to write it where she
could let go. She chose no less
bright, popular spot than the Brown
Derby at cocktail time where she
pushed aside the silver teapot and

roses in great quantities every

"Oh, how lovelyw Gay cried,

Mrs. Wilson smiled, and mo-
toned the girl to a low chair be-
side her, and though the black
eyes continued to study her in
their usual critical fashion, Gay
didn't feel confused or discon-
certed. She sensed a curious soft
ening in Marian Wilson's attitude
this morning. A softening not
only toward her, but toward life
as whole.
Mrs. Wilson leaned forward and
remarked abruptly, my husband

minutes, and I would have died.
