! MEXICO CITY, Nov. l6. CUP?
Mexico is suffering severe Dusl-
ness mad industrial pains as Pres
dent Lazar Cardenas seeks to
reconstruct Tile national economy.
The purpose of the president is
simply stated: free and rich
Mexico, if possible, but if that IS
not possible, free and poor Mex
leo. Foreign capital he considers
dangerous. He wants none OF IL.
The factual picture of four
years of Cardenas administration
is not so simply stated. There has
been a series of drastic changes
in ownership and management OF
certain big industries. L n
strength of organized labor mas
increased steadily. . .. -
Foreign capital has ceased TO
come into Mexico; Mexican capl..
tai has fled abroad. Business OF
many foreign firms has diminish
ed greatly or ceased. Government
revenue has dropped. Imports
have been drastically reduced.
Prices have touched new highs.
The prosperity of 1884 has van.
ished into the deep depression of
1888.
MANY FACTORS INVOLVED
Many factors, including eco
nomic conditions in the United
States, combine to influence busi-
ness and industry in Mexico, but
unqueStionably the national econ
omy has felt the effects of Car
denas' program of change.
The high points of this program
so far may be summarized as:
l. Collectivization of the cot
ton industry in the Laguna dis
trict and of the henequent or sis
al hemp industry in Yucatan,
which was given over to the work.

Yesterday: Judy learns that
Jack wants a transfer and the
same day she sees Marvel with a
man friend" from Los Angeles
in A restaurant. She thinks pain
fully of Dwight.
CHAPTER IN
In a moment, Judy had recover
ed her equilibrium. She slipped
her coffee ard said, "Oh, good
ness. even an engaged girl has the
right to lunch with another man.
We're both acting as though we'd
found her in secret love nest.
Come, come, It's probably an old
friend, nothing in it :"
Diane's eyes were twinkhng.
"Of coursew she said. And Mar
vers not flirting with him. Not
her"
She can't help flirting. She
even coquctted a little with my
father. She's the kind who makes
eyes at anything male, from s To
so"
THAT sounds very auspicious
for Dwight" said Diane.
We're couple of cats. Per-
haps we should have ordered a
saucer OF cream apiece"
They laughed together, but
Judy exercises all her self-control
not to look again at the engrossed
two sitting at the other table. At
last they were finished with the
meal, and Diane picked up her
package of diapers, and they went
out. Marvel had not seen them.
Judy was glad of that.
Her interest in shopping for a
hat for Diane had tagged. She
kept seeing Marvels face, hearing
the lightneS sof her laugh. That
mans hand on the table had been
so close to MarvePs rednailed
fingers. There was something be-
tween them-as if they shared a
delightful, forbidden secret.
You're imagining things"
Judy said to herself harshly, and
she picked up a blue straw that
was lying on a table and asked
Diane, "How about this one? It's
cute. ..
1t was cute, but the price tag
said $40. Diane tried it on. 1t was
most becoming, with her dark hair
and rose-olive skin. She took it
off, regretfully. "Not on Bills
pay" she said. That's what you
get when you marry into the
Navy"
Marvel can buy $50 hats if she
wants to-" Judy said unwillingly.
DANES eyes fingered on the
blue hat II told Bill he should

the dickens of love. You forget
about money" She frightened.
"Bill thinks I'm beautiful in
sunbOnnet. Come on. Pm not go
ing to buy hat after all. I've got
last years, and it's good enough
to push a baby carriage in"
They drove back. The sun was
high, now, and the morning that
had been only pleasantly warm
had turned into a day that was
really hot. Diane was fretting
about the baby. "He ought to be
out getting vitamins. Judy drove
at a good speed. She kept think
ing about Marvel and that man.
She dropped Diane off at the
bungalow and went home. To her
amazement, Jack Hanley's car was
parked at the curb in front of
her house. Her heart did funny
little flop. 1t had been so long
since she had seen him!
He was in the living room, talk

current of his love. She touched

to shout that he mustn't 60. But
she couldn't do thai. She stood in
the quiet living room, and now
the tears came. Why hadn't she
been able to love Jack? He was
everything any girl in her right
mind would want. Even Diane
had said he was the best bet on
the lot. But the wayward heart
cried for someone else. Someone
who didn't even know she was
alive - except as a convenience.
She punched the arm of the chair
suddenly with a vicious, angry
fury. Dwight Campbell! Only a
