her compartment on the train and sat staring into the sky. Four more days of being Judy Allen and nobody else.
 The stars looked brighter as the train rushed west from New York City. She had read somewhere that people had to travel 50 miles or more away from the artificial glow to see the stars in their clarity.
 Maybe Sandy had been resneri- bering the wide spaces of clear blue and dark blue, where there were stars at night, when he talked about his flights to free. dom.
 She recalled that, in 6 recent newsreel, she had seen him alighting from his plane with Margaret Gordan. There had been nothing wistful or sad in his gaze. His mouth smiled and the crinkles stayed around his eyes.
 Stop being a nitwit," she conn manded herself. 'The guy didn't want you. He's proved 1t, SO for get him."
 Whereupon a dozen things that he had done, half 8 dozen attempts to see her, scrambled over the other reasons.
 Maybe he wanted both Peg and me-" she murmured, half asleep. And I do = like - Phil "a lot. I'd trust Phill"

 There was excitement at the low, widespread white house with its many wings when she reached it. Spring, soft and sweet and hyacinth drenched, blew gently through the trees that were coming to flower. Cousins and auntS, already notified, had arrived.
 Mrs. 1rvington Allen, having been deprived of 8 Scalloped awn- ing and red-carpeted steps at her wedding 25 years before, was de- termined that her only child should have every thrill that ac- companies romantic marriage.
 True, Judy had sprung her forthcoming nuptials on the fam- fly rather suddenly, but Mrs. Allen was certain that she would man. age the wedding easily. The old stone church where the family worShiped was two blocks away. An open church wedding would be just the thing, since her hus- band would be up for his fifth reelection as common pleas judge pretty soon.
 His supporters would enjoy the lilies, the slim white candles, the smilax and the pageant of the wedding party.
 At first Judge Allen hesitated because he himself had hied his slim, golden -haired bride to the justice of the peace so many years ago. Judy's wedding might make some lost magic up to her though.
 When Judy wired she didn't mind and the Idea amused Philip, he told his wife to 90 to town - to engage 2 caterer, ice cream wedding bells, small silver boxes for the cake which would bring dreams to every guest.
 The judge was tall, slim, silver haired. Already he had met this future son-in-law on occasional visits to New York and had grown fond of him. Here was the man he himself would have picked for Judy.
 Therefore, when he saw Judy receive another young man In the low-ceiling rose and white drawing room and then promptly order him to leave, the day before the wedding he raised his blue eyes in surprise.

CHAPTER XIII

The telephone bell pursued Judy and Philip down two flights oi stairs, pealing steadily as though whoever. was calling intended to remain at his end of the phone until somebody came home to ans wer.
 Tt may be important" Judy suggested.
 Couldn't be. I'm not on the other end of the line" Phil ans wered. His voice was gay but his eyes were deeper, more seri- ouS than usual Anyway, you've train to catch"
 Noting this, Judy suddenly in- troduced a new note into the con- versation.
 Phil, my darling, you may be the best buy on the market, but there's one word we aren't having said when we stand together be- fore the preacher. The word is obey It's too Victorian. You think so. too, don't you, down under your liver or appendix or somewhere?"
 Phil's laughter was clear and ringing. He reached for her with strong arms, pulled her to him, and kissed her firmly, almost de- n1andinely. For the moment she forgot Sandy. As he released her she smiled more radiantly than she had for days. Phil was sweet. And devoted. And masterful. Maybe being married to him would be more fun than sine had suspected.
 T never knew obey ever was used in marriage ceremonies" Phil said. "You cali your minister and tell him to cross 1t out"
 "He knows better, but I'll warn him. she agreed. Some women tho kind who want to put up good front before agreeing to sharv a mans name and door key--think 1t makes a man happy to have his pet poodle run when. ever he throws a stick. 1T woman doesn't serve tapioca pud- ding because she likes to please her husband, whats the sense in coeroing her into it? He'd get better meals at his club
 Their conversation was gay and happy as they rode to the station. They had the taxicab driver roll his cab onto the ferry which would carry them to the Erie station. Once on board. they left the cab and stood at the boats stern, watching the high lights of Man hattan walk the sky In cyclorama.
 The harbor was strewn with little boats and far out some war; ships rode the waves.
 Judy looked at the high lighted canyon whose walls were lower New York, listened to the three musicians. who had come on board to play old songs and collect pen- nies and nickels. Because she knew she could never return this way with the freedom and gaiety which she was taking with her, she felt lonely and clung more tightly to Philips arm.
 Obey was a word one neither put in a marriage ceremony nor omitted. Obey was a code which a heart held or discarded. Maybe in time she would think of Sandy as little too rough-hewn, re- member that his eyes never quite lost their laughter as surely all mans eyes must do sometimes, not recall that there was special music in the low timber of his voice.

 She said goodby sweetly, told Philip she would meet his train the next Tuesday. Then she found

PHILADELPHIA charge
that the threat of high source in

by Merle d. Vincent, head of the ex-

Vincent spoke before the Both con-

who says that knows nothing of in

dangerous to national unity. He is
not talking within the law" Vincent

GET NO WAGE
DIFFERENCES

WILMINGTON, Del-(FP) "A IS
minute dispute interrupted an other
wise tranquil General Motors Corp.
annual stockholders meeting here
when a motion to pay drafted workers
the difference between wages and
army pay was introduced.
The motion was made by News Edi-
tor Alexander L. Crosby of Federated
Press, bearing the proxy of Managing
Editor Carl Haessler. 1t was defeated
with only Crosby's vote in favor.
Pointing out that G. NJ. was able
to pay four top executives a total of
1864 ,437 in salary, bonus and divid-
ends last year, Crosby argued that the
corporation could well afford to pro-
tect wage earners. He also challenged
Vice Pres. John T. Smith, presiding
in the absence of Pres. Alfred p.
Sloan, on G. MS refusal to grant
wage increases demanded by the
United Automobile Workers (CIO).
Smith said the corporation would
not raise pay because men were al
ready well paid. Actually, the COM
pany's figures show average 1910
earnings fonly $1,S04, which is be-
low the minimum needed for a decent
standard of living.
When reminded Of the increase in
living costs, Smith said it was very
slight. He painted a pessimistic pic

Montana Workers
Get S7,245 Wage
Hour Backpay

Observation-Disclosures adjust
ments effected in Montana by the fed
eral Wage and Hour Division in April
totaled s7,245.71, paid to 142 employees
according to L. A. Hill, regional di-
rector. In North Dakota, $1,443.65
was paid to 80 workers, in South
Dakota 1886 was paid to 65, and in
Minnesota, $1S,S25 to 304.
1.-THE uses to which backwages are
generally put : Mr.. Hill said, "best re-
fleet the benefits of the Wage and
Hour law to the general public and to
employers as we'll as to the workers.
In every case investigated backwages
ately into the hands of businessmen
for the payment of overdue bills and
for the purchase of needed articles.
The results of this increase in con-
sumer purchasing power follow
from the retailer through the
wholesaler to the manufacturer and
producer. There is a resultant gen
eral expansion of business and en-
ployment opportunities, gradual re-
duction of relief load and reduction
in the number of unemployed.
The quickening of the pulse of in
dustry in this region due to the ma
tional defense program is immediate
ly reflected in employment figures be-
cause OF the reluctance of employers
to pay the overtime penalty for long
hours of work. Congress intended,
through the overtime provisions of
the act, to make sure that an increase
in production would result in a CORE
spending increase in employment.
The act appears to be accomplishing
that result. There should be no re-
axing of the overtime provisions, par
-icularly in view of the recent esti-
mates that there are approximately
5000 900 in the United States still I'M
employed.
The majority of resolutions in the
past month were made voluntarily
without the necessity of court action.
