State u. G.. G..
Moves To New
Building

Raleigh, Feb 6-The North Car
DINA Unemployment Compensation
Commissions two divisions last week
moved into their new five-story and
basement building on CaswGs Square
at Jones and Mcdowell streets.
Several delays held up moving, but
finally, in the worst snow and cold
of the year, the Unemployment Com
pensation Division moved from the
building in which there were sew
eral heat prostrations last summer.
The Commission officials and exc
cutives, the directors of both divisions
and the Employment Service Di-
vision are located on the first floor.
Various other operations are on the
second and third floors and in the
basement.
The WPA moved last week into
the top floor and a part of the floor
below.
The building was erected at cost
of about S235,000 exceeding the ORR
ginal estimate Of S20u,000 because of
additions and changes. Under the
original plan the PWA supplied IS
per cent OF the money and the State
So per cent. The States cost is to
be repaid by the Social Security
Board in rentals at the rate OF a little
more than $4,000 year for 10
years. Then the building will be COM
pletely paid for, the State having the
building permanently. and the U. c.
c. a home as long as it lasts. Rent
for the two divisions was more than
twice the amount that the Social Sc
curity Board will pay the State for
the next 10 years, or until the State
cost has been liquidated.

Cholly. Don't you think you could
love him"
"And what" Cholly said impa.
tiently, eff 1 did fall in love with
Dover Hayworth? Don't you think
I'd have too much sense to ever let
him know it? I tell you no one has
ever found happiness marrying out
of lis own class"
Romany sighed:
Have you been reading dime
novels again? Well, go ahead and
spoil your life if you want to. But
if you ask me, Dove HayWorth is
one of the incest men I've ever met
in my life. approve of him in
every way"
"Thanks!" Cholly smiled uncer-
tainly. "You don't always approve
of my boy friends"
"You could mean Terry" ROM
any studied her face. Tell me,
Cholly, you've gotten over all your
foolishness about him, haven't
you? You-don't love him any
more?"
Cholly turned away.
THAT" she said very low, us a
closed chapter in my life. let's
not talk about it. I've never heard
from him since the afternoon he
came into the store. I-guess he's
through, too"
Dover seemed to bow to almost
everyone in Landau's where the
foursome danced later. Cholly felt
uncomfortable because they seemed
to be the center of attention. Brent
and Romany were partly response
BILE for the interest, of course. But
Cholly knew Dover's friends who
hadn't met her on the boat were
wondering who she might be. He
was so obviously attentive so de-
termined that they should know
where he stood in case they did
know she was the girl from the
music store, that Cholly felt doubly
conspicuous.
Fortunately, Pee Wee Tyler did
not put in an appearance. At least
that was great consolation to
Cholly.
But they were leaving Landaus
at one o'clock, walking through the
foyer, when Cholly looked up and
straight into the eyes Of Terry
O'Rourke. At his side, sophisticat-
ed and dazzling in black tulle, was
Myra Noyes. Romany glanced side
wise at Cholly quickly and saw her
face whiten.
Cholly could never quite know
how her weak knees carried her out
the door of Landau's and to Dovers
waiting car. 1t was the first time
she had ever seen Teri, with an
other woman. And lie didn't look a.
all down and out or heart broken.
He looked gay-and Indifferent
Her Terry!
