, They walked for perhaps half a
civ block before he said anything
Then all he said was, "Why?"
But Fabienne had got herself in
check by then and so she said, BE
cause then I wouldn't have found
you a good walking companion inc
I'd have had another hours Sleep"
1t was pretty weak, but that was
the best she could do.
They were in the Fifties and
nearly to her hotel. The rest OF the
way they walked in silence. Or
talked of things that made no mat
ter.
There was no one in the lobby
when they walked in. Bill took her
to her elevator.
She stood there for a moment look
ing at him. His face looked a lltlle
grim. She had hurt him by what
she said, but she didn't know how
to unsay it.
She said, BILL, I didn't mean
ANYTHING by that silly speech. You
knox the inane things n says at
three o'clock in the morning? I'm
SO tired my tongue doesn't make any
more sense than my mind"
His gaze flashed to her hair, lin
gered there as if pleased. THE
snowdrops have melted. They hang
like diamonds on chains of fine
gold"
She thought it quite the incest
thing she had ever heard. "Really?'
To cover up her pleasure she
drawled. I'll bet you tell that to
all the nurses YOU pretend intim-
date you"
"I'll bet it's nice hair to touch"
he said, crinkling his eyes at her.
Hastily she held out her hand.
Good night, Bill. Thank you for
making this the the most
memorable Christmas V I've eveI
spent"
Good night, Fabienne."
Then quite suddenly he bent and
kissed her on her cool cheek-the
way that he had kissed Ellen.
She was pink and hot and dis
turbed when she got in the elevator
and reminded herself that it was a
bcctherly kiss. She didn't want
any more brotherly kisses and she

Nazis Place Ban
On Finnish Aid
Continued From Page One)

Continued From Page One
Soviet Premier Viacheslav Molotov
would make his long delayed formal
visit to Berlin within the next few
weeks With the intention of tight
ening the Nazi-Soviet alliance and
getting more war materials-pre-
sumably in return for food for Ger
many-for the frustrated Red army
in Finland.
Those developments assumed i'm
portance in relation to the chang
ing diplomatic alignment in Europe
generally because they seemed on
the surface at least to fit into the
picture of events thrusting Germany
and Russia closer and closer to-
gether.
The British government obviously
is considering the possibility OF a
formal break in relations with
Moscow, but seeking to avoid TAX
ing the initiative. 1t was reported
that the forthcoming foreign office
white book, which will contain the
British version of the vain nego-
tiations for a mutual aid pact with
Russia before the war started, viii
say that the Soviets at the last
minute demanded British and
French approval of their plans for
extending their zone of operations
to the Baltic States.
The white paper will be, it was
predicted, moderate In tone but
there were many who believed that
it might lead the Soviets to break
relations. The British. French and
italian ambassadors to Moscow are
returning to their own capitals and
it was considered questionable
whether they will go back to
Moscow.
The European powers watched
the development of American for
eign policy. Britain and France
expressed unofficial satisfaction
with President Roosevelt's message
to congress. which condemned rule
by force and said that the United
States would not be disinterested in
Europe's troubles or resort to ex-
treme isolation The NaziS found
grounds for satisfaction with those
parts of the speech which en-
phasized American opposition to
participation in foreign conflict.
Germany probably would regard
il inconsistent with the neutrality
Of Sweden and Norway if they per-
mitted Great Britain and France
to send Finland military aid through
their territory an authorized Nazi
source.
Such aid to Finland, the infor-
mant said. probably would lead to
an extension" of the European
war. He declined to develop this
hint. 1t did not, he said, constitute
warning to France though France
might think it did.

Net receipts, less than sum, are
expected to aggregate $5,548 GOO, 900,

deficit of S2,176000,0OO
But he avoided an election year
recommendation that the treasury'S
S45 900, 100000 borrowing limit be
increased to finance deficit spend
ing. He estimated that the national
debt on June 30 l941 at the end of
the fiscal year for which this bud
get was drawn, will aggregate only
S44, ,938 000,000-just under the limit
provided:
l. That congress avoids extra
oudgetary appropriations.
2. That congress levies the $780,
C00,00O emergency national defense
taxes.
5. That the business upturn con-
tinues so that deficiency relief ap-
preparations may be avoided.
4 That farm prices improve
somewhat so that parity price SUBJ
5ldy payments may be avoided il
the next fiscal year.
al onrditint,c
Mr.. Roosevelt will avoid exceeding
the borrowing limit in this fashion,
He will use S1,150000,000 of excess
funds now available in the treasury's
working balance to pay some of
this years bills, thereby preventing
the 1892 100000 current deficit
from lifting the national debt II
S44,370, 100000 at the end of this fis-
cal year. The figure, instead, will
be S43 ,222, 100000 on June 80, 1910.
That will leave him a margin OF
approximately sl773, 100000 with
which to work between the actual
debt and the borrowing limit. II
all goes well with business and agri-
culture and congress comes up with
requested tax revenue. the l941 fis-
cal year will end with approximately
S62 100000 Of the treaSury's bor-
rowing power unused.
That is a close haul
This budget puts squarely to con-
gress the question whether the debt
limit shall be increased at this
session. 1t poses the related and
equally difficult question whether
there shall be a new start toward
budget balancing by reducing agri-
culture, relief, highway, reclamation,
rivers, harbors, public buildings and
public grants expenditures. Some
of these are so-called pork barrel
items, dear TO congressman and
their constituents.

However, d couple Of years ago, Il
charge Of using the mails TO dcfraud
was preferred against the concern
and the postoGficc department
promptly denied it the further use
of its facilities to continue in bust
ness. A jury in the federal district
court for Northern California threw
out the case, but postal officials re-
fused to lift their ban against the
concern. The Federal Trade commits

against it. but hasn't seen fit TO bring

Fong VANS spokesman remark
that, less than century ago, there
was almost no such thing as an Oc-
cidcntal dentist. 1t wasn't until 1853
that Britain established supervision
over all physicians and surgeons. II
was about the same time that Amcri-
ca began to build up its present sys-
tenn of checks and balances over the
medical fraternity.
On the other hand, for thousands
of years ordinary herbs. such as Fong
Wan deals with, were the only cura-
tives for human ailments.
Herbal studies and trcatiseS were
the first on record pertaining to
curative influences upon the body
Some of them antcdatc even AcS-
culapius and Hippocratcs.
That's the sort of a background
of research that Fong Wan lays claim
TO-.
Consider. for minute, the soya
bean Since time mmcmorial it's
been an integral part of the vegcta-

Yet ii was unknown to all but few
Americans few years ago. Today
thousands of bushels Of it arc grown
in this country and the product is
used for many purposes. That Just
