he asked.
She, marveling at the beauty Of a
fast-changing chain Of olive trees,
ornamental oranges, tall cotton
woods, tamaracks and palms, said:

"Oh? Your car? ?" The girl turned

II was Tates turn to be offend

choked, then retreated into a furi-
Gus, swollen-necked silence, which
lasted until they passed a party Of
horseback enthusiasts, all girls, all
friends Of Tate's. While he slowed
the car to a crawling motion, to
speak, exchange pleasantries, and
introduce them to his guest, an ap-
preaching machine tipped past
them. A station wagon. Ylena
Jerked her head about and looked
after it.
At that moment Tate glanced
at her, and because her face was
turned from his, decided with de-
light, Shes jealous" That put him
in excellent spirits. He licked on
the radio and began TO sing with
the singer in not bad baritone.
Ylena asked casually, between

at the aghast expression on Ylena's

As Tate ushered Ylena into the
Cromwell living room. she realized

"Of course, Don't you know any,

Ylena smiled, recalling Roses

By the Associated Press.
The Federal Treasury spent q
record-breaking total of 1881. .oOo,-
900 in 1941, and that was before the
formulation of the present war
spending plans involving many more
billions.
This sum has been approached
only once before in the Nations
history. That was In the last year
of tn. first World War, when the
total was q few hundred millions
smaller.
1t represented about 81 per cent
of the estimated 500, 0,000, 600, 900 ma
tional income this calendar year.
What the new plans envisage, as
indicated by President Roosevelt
yesterday, are the spending OF n
per cent of the national income in
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1912,
and so per cent of an estimated

The spending total this year rep
resented nearly twice as much
money as there is in circulation in
the country. 1t was only possible
to spend so much by utilizing the
bank check system.
The spending total also represent
ed the equivalent Of about Sl43 for
every man, woman and child in the
country, of which $94 went for direct
defense costs. Some OF the rest
of the money also contributed to
defense by training defense factory
workers. financing F. B. 1. activities
and similar indirect work. But the
