Noel pleaded, hating herself for.
the abjectness of her voice. But
if Julian went off like this, so cold;
and angry, she would probably
never see him again. Listen.

This was the last straw. A sud-

her. why do you have to be SOL

make me hate you?" she cried.
Perhaps that would be best"
Julian said coolly. eff we could

he stopped, as if unable to say
more.
Noel stood there, her head
dropping against the pillar. The
anger NE had aroused in her had
turned to- one vast agonizing pain. .
No matter what he might say. or
how he hurt her, her love for him
rose up and triumphed over everyi
other feeling.
And then Julian delivered the;
last crushing blow. "You may not /
know it, but I was actually begin.

into the hard, workaday world was
taking on the nature Of a noble

bitter laugh. cit only goes to;

With that he walked to the car
and drove off.
Somehow, Noel stumbled into,
her room, undressed as if in. a:

her slender body was shaken with

reached the car after Noel had
called to him. Then unexpectedly
he turned, and came back to her
where she stood on the porch.
"All right" Julian's voice came
!coolly, what is it you want to
say?" .
Noel drew quick breath. Now
that she had been given another
chance to convince him, she must
not fail. IT know it probably does
look as if have-just considered
this whole thing as lark" she
began hurriedly, with feeling all
the time that she wasn't really
going to get anywhere with her
explanation, "but I haven't really,
Julian. I'm serious about this
lthing-have been from the first.

He looked at her for a moment

1T isn't really as-awful as it

see, I had to have q job, and that
was the only one could find. Of

"You didn't have to do that kind
of work. There was no reason for
it except that-well. 1t appealed to
your love Of novelty. When you
get bored, you'll quit. And prob

was still uncompromising.
OF course he didn't couldn't I'M

quite still, one arm encircling a
porch pillar. trying to think of
some way to convince him of her
sincerity without divulging the
fact that she had started on the
adventure with only a little more
than a hundred dollars, most of
(which had been stolen from her.
If Julian knew that, she hadn't
ANY doubt whatever of what he
would do-insist on financing her

For Noel was still firm in her in

GERMAN LOTTERY
 BANNED IN MAILS

Washington, May l2--(UP)-Post- master General James A. Farley to- day issued fraud order denying use of the mails to 8 lottery allegdly sponsored by the German govern ment. The order specifically barred the Saxon State Lottery (Saech- sische Landeslotterie) and August Streit. Leipsig, Germany from use of the mails. Acting Post Office Solicitor Walter Kelly said the de- partment has no definite informa- tiOn that the lottery is sponsored by the German government. He said, however, that circulars received in his office advertising the lottery said 1t was Supervised and guar anteed by the government of the Third Reich, and it's leader Adolph Hitler"
 The circulars, mailed by Streit, April 28, said that Streit was acting as collector and agent" of the government. Postal officials said they had no way of knowing how many of the circulars have entered this country. The fraud order pre- vents transmission through the mails of any letter addressed to the lottery or to Streit and prevents is- suance Of any money order in the name of either.

Volume Drops Though Experts Felt No Fear
IrreguIarity Was Considered to Be Normal - There
 Was Lack of News to Stimulate Any Activity
By ELMER C. WALZER Limited Press Financial Editor

NOuAbCu ECbb bu6AHChskh
 New York, May l2- (UP) --The stock market hestitated today in it's upward movement and volume shrank substantially.
 Irregularity was considered nor nal in present circumstances. Chart experts said the line of the least resistance continued upward and anticipated an early attempt of the list to penetrate the 121 level in the industrial average, which was hit in mid-April.
 News to stimulate market activity was lacking. Some favorable items were gleaned from corporation re- ports. Notably Standard oil of New Jersey, whose net income for 1887 broke all previous records.
 Engineering construction awards for the past week rose to $70,520, 900, up 94 per cent over the previous week and 12 per cent over the cor responding week of 1887.
 New York Central provided the principal adverse report. In the first quarter it had a net loss of $l0,- 196,338, against a net income of $5, ,295, ,094 in the first quarter of 1937.
 More stability in retail prices had 8 favorable influence on store stocks. Krcsge and Woolworth made new highs.
 Oils were barely steady on un- certainty over the price situation Railroad issues held well as roads gave notice Of IS per cent wage reduction effective July 1. Union Pacific gained a point. Moderate

5000 To 12,OOO Loyalists
 Trapped By Nationalists

20 days enabled Nationalist air planes to bomb Loyalist lines heav- fly. Today, the Nationalists were re- ported ready to force the entrapped Loyalists to surrender or be destroy ed. As a result of the advance by Valino's Navaresse forces, his lines were separated only 30 miles from the Nationalist columns of Gen. Miguel Aranda, fighting their way down the coast from Alcala De Chi vert.
 With the return of good weather a major offensive against Castellon De La Plan was to be opened mo- mentarily. the Nationalists reported. Meanwhile, Generalissimo Francisco Francos airplanes were reported to have attacked Loyalist military ob- jectives along the coast and the Loy- alist Island of Minorca. the only part of the Balearics not in Nation slist hands. One of the chief attacks was on the Cartbagena naval base where large Loyalist arsenal is lo- cated.

Market Hesitated Slightly in Upward Climb Today
Snow! Short-Lived Furry Sufficient to Create Item for Record
 B O o k.

You've all heard about June in January but few in Waterbury have seen snow in May. That's about what the story would have been around 9 o'clock today.
 Sure enough! The drizzle of early morning yielded about ten minutes of snow. But not a smidgin remained at a few min- utes after 9 o'clock to answer the question of Francois Villon: Where are the snows of yester- year?"
 In the matetr of figures, rather than figures of speech, the tenn perature reached low Of 40 de- grees during the night, cold enough for some winter evenings. It rose to about 47 degrees at around 9 today, and the 24-hour high yes- terday was GA degrees.
 Plumbing Inspector James R. Walker, official tabulator of precipitation, had not completed figures on how much rain fell, as of this morning. sBut he failed to recall another instance of snow in May in Waterbury during the past 40 years.
 Which is something of a record, If you sec what is meant.

SUMMER COMING TEN DAYS AHEAD
That Is Prediction Made For New England By
 Boston Weather Man

Boston, May 12-(UP)- Summer will arrive 10 days ahead of sched- ule in New England this year, me- teorologist, E. B. Rideout of radio station WEEI predicted today.
 Though the official first day of summer is June 2l, he said, heat wave probably will start between June Il and l5 From then to mid- August, he believed New England CTS will swelter through a hot, dry summer, broken intermittently as usual by cooling cast winds.
 Central and Southern New Eng land may experience a sample of summer next week, Rideout said. He predicted that from Monday to Thursday the temperature will reach 80 degres or over for two days at least and possibly the entire pe- riod of four days"
 Speaking Of Spring
 we expect too much of April and May. Some people think this has been cold spring, but the records show that the temperature was an average of 2 degrees above the 65- year average for April. So far in May we have an average of plus 2.5 degrees.
 This April was the Warmest since 1921 when April's average was 5l.8 degrees. This year the April average was about 485 degrees. This, of course, takes in April 28 when the all- time April high-tem- perature of 89 degres was equalled. The low this April was "A degrees on April 6. The record low for the month vas II degrees above zero on April 5, 1874
 He pointed out that tulips in the public garden were week ahead of schedule and added that his home truck garden was fully two weeks ahead of last year"

He also recom- mended that attorneys for the resi- dents of Wcstport, Weston and Red ding draw briefs claiming the con- pany violated it's charter in going beyond reason" in clearing the val- ley of trees.
 Mrs. Everett Boughton, Westport, declared "the women are going to save that valley for the state of Connecticut" and pleaded with the governor to do something, If even to show sympathetic interest"
 Others in the delegation included Mrs. Nicolai Sokoloff, Weston, di- yorced wife of the former Cleveland Symphony orchestra conductor; Mrs. John Clark, Mrs. William L. Nichols and Mrs. Edward w. Ro- botham, all of Westport; Mrs. H. F.. Brinkerhoff and Mrs. l.. B. Gold horn, Bedding, and Mrs. William Gillies and Mrs. William T. Wish ner. Weston.
 Mrs. Boughton, in inviting the governor to inspect the valley, told him it will make your heart sick to see the ruin of our state"
 Mrs. Dorr added None of us is going to let up on this thing, if it's the last thing we do They are ruining the valley"
 Mrs. Goldhorn, chairman of the Bedding Women's Civic club, offered a statement which declared the future of Bedding is at stake. Many restored and beautiful old homes dating back to l700, of which Red ding is so proud, will lose value and share the fate of other reservoir sections around us.

ITALY CONQUEST
 IS RECOGNIZED

Geneva, May 12-CUP)-The Lea que of Nations council, ignoring q last despairing plea of Halle Selas- sic, tacitly recognized the Italian conquest og Ethiopia today.
 Without adopting a formal resolu- ton or announcing any definite de- cision, the council turned a deaf ear to the final effort of the Negus to prevent world recognition of the conquest.
 Ignoring the futile plea of the de- posed emperor, who appeared in person, weak and shaking from a recent illness, the council adjourned after Foreign Minister Vilhclms Hunters of Latvia, presiding, an- nounced that the debate was closed.

 AREIN QUANDARY

Maiden, Mass, May 12-UP-A five months old boys life hung in the balance today as his parents prayed for guidance in a decision whether to permit amputation of his left leg.
 Mrs. John J. Donahuc already has given q pint Of blood in a transfu- sion to save her son Paul's life. Now she must decide whether to permit an operation, with its one chance in a thousand to bring him health, ac- cording to surgeons.
 The baby, under treatment at Massachusetts Memorial hospital, has a malignant tumor on his left foot. Unless the leg is removed, doctors believe, the child will die, while even an amputatiOn cannot certainly save Paul's life.

WOOL MARKET

Boston, May 12--CUP)-Busines was very restricted in the Boston wool market, the U. s. agriculture department reported today.
 Few mills were showing any in- terest in wools. The reason for their lack of interest in all Wools was stated by mill-buyers to be the ab- sence of a sizable new business in worsted and woolen goods.
 Raw wool prices in Boston were showing little change. The principal holders of sizable quantities of domestic wools were refusing to consider offers below prices realized on recent sales. Limited quantities were offered occasionally at prices below recent nominal quota tions especially on territory wools coarser than half blood.
