CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE
WRITTEN FOR AND RELEASED ~
CENTRAL PRESS ASSOCIATION

"YOU WONDER sometimes what
people would think Of you if they
knew what you were really like
wonder if they'd find you worth
knowing if you weren't celebrity
I do"
"When you take a couple OF
drinks sometimes they make you
feel like something you aren't"
The words Vance had spoken in
her apartment came back to Kit
He had said then there were things
she wouldn't understand. They
were clear to her now.
II only told you this, Kit, be-
cause I want you to know that you
can't let your chance go until you've
proved to yourself and the world
what you can do"
Kit clasped her hands around her
knees and looked up at him.
Thanks, Vance-thanks for tell
ing me and coming up here to try
to help me. I had to run away to
think. And thinking, I can't see
any way to go back and take Sem
bler's money when 1 give nothing
in return"
you're going to give plenty in
return. You've got a throat, a voice,
a heart and mind.
Did you ever hear a canary
burst into song when lis night
cover is taken off He doesn't sing
because he has q contract that
calls for a trill at nine O'Clock IN
the morning. He sings because he's
part of the sunshine he sees"
II suppose you thin; singing IL
as easy as that"
ppm no Webster, but L can tell
you that song is more THAI q mel
ody. It's something that comes cut
OF your mind and your heart ana
your memory as we'll as youf
throat"
"Oh, Vance, if you'd seen what
the critics said!"
They're right. You haven't get
anything but a good ti?roat aid
good notes. You haven't cone any
thing but READ words and music
something that passed between
your eyes and your throat without
getting anywhere near your emo
lions or your understanding. That's
not your fault. It's because you
don't know people"
Don't know people? Why Vance,
the Sembler audience numbers
did you ever see 'em? Look
into their faces? Hecr the MUIR
muir of their voices? The clap Of
of their hands? Or the silence that
can follow a song? No! And until
you see audiences and FEEL them
you won't know how = sing. You
aren't going to sing for YOUR
pleasure; you're going to sing for
them. You're going to put some
thing into a song, THEIR song as
they feel it. Did you ever sing for
an audience? ?"

at least 10 big fires in the Pulitz-
strasse and the Lehrter freight yards.
"One of the fires burned so fierce
ly that aircraft flying high above
were illuminated by the flames" it
said.
Another formation bombed the rail
yards between Berlin's Potsdamer
and Anhalter stations with 1000 in
cendiaries and numerous explosives,
it related. One pilot said one direct
hit was scored on the Potsdamer
station, causing fires followed by
three explosions.
1.-THE interior of my bombers was
lit up as though we had an electric
TORCH" said another pilot. "Visibility
was good and we could see Unter
Den Linden and the Tiergarten
easily.
There was an uncanny silence
when we came over Berlin. Then
their ack ack (anti-aircrafD began
firing and German fighters by this
time were about.
while one of our bombers was
held in the searchlights two Messer-
schmitts attacked, firing red and
green tracer bullets. The pilot turn
ed his machine towards them to
avoid their fire and the fighters broke
away"
In the eu,ly evening raid on Essen,
the air ministry related, fierce fires
were started and were visible for 20
miles. one pilot reported one large
fire and two smaller ones set off
in the very center o. the Krupp
works there while another said his
bombs caused tremendous, TO-
second explosion.
At Turin, fires were declared start
ed by incendiaries which guided
bomb laden planes to the targets.

"Vultee strikers" Mortimer told
Jackson, "resent your statement re-

assistant regional director OF the
AAA in the East Central region,
Charles Collins, chairman OF tn
National Vegetable Growers con-
ference, and Congressman j..
Bayard Clark, of Fayetteville.
R. w. Galphin, New Hanover
county farm agent, said last night
that it is also probable that Con-
gressmen Graham A. Barden and
Herbert Bonner will be present for
the meeting.
J. x. Bannerman, president o.
the Farmers Civic Cooperative
Business association, which IS
sponsoring the meeting, will pre-
side.
Lewis and Collins will discuss
the 1941 AAA program as it re-
lates to truck growing in this
region and will also discuss with
the farmers the changes that are
desired.
Besides New Hanover county,
lrQCk growers llOlll II Ioo'SA II
North Carolina counties, including
Craven, Carteret, Wayne, Beau
fort, Tyrell, Washington, Cur
rituck, Pasquotank, ChoWan,
Sampson and Pender, have been
invited to attend.
Galphin said last night that he
is not sure just how many counties
will send representatives but that
he has already been notified that
delegations from Mount Olive and
Pender county will be present.
The changes sought by the truck
growers are concerned with the
amount of vegetables which non
truck growers can produce under
the AAA program. The National
Truck Growers association recon-
mended that certain restrictions be
placed on farmers other than truck
famers in the amount of truck
that can be grown. However, the
truck growers of this section feel
that the restrictions are not rigid
enough and are seeking changes
in this respect.
