Eric laughed easily. When there

NO, only young" Win said. He
turned to Eric, What are you do
ing these days?"
Radio" Eric told him. IT'S the
thing now. Pays good money
Halle thought of the 50-cent piece
in her purse-"and it's steady"
You're doing well them"
Halle wished that Eric wouldn't
lie to Win, wished that he wasn't
so easily able to look like the cat
that swallowed the canary. 1t was
carrying the act too far to look sc
proud and self-satisfied.
Fairly" Eric said at last
Signed nice little contract to-
day"
Halle tried not to give herself
away, but she gave little start.
Now, Eric had done 1t! She'd been
thinking she would ask Win to
come back to the country with
them, but she couldn't show him
their poverty in the face of Eric S
lie.
That's great" Win said heart
lily.
yeah. I'm going to do some an
nouncing for Consolidated Broad
casting"
Louise said, NO"
Got the contract somewhere
here in my pocket" Eric tried hard
to be casual about It. pretending to
search his pockets when he knew
exactly which one It was in He
found it at last, and showed them
the folded sheet. He didn't open it
before tossing it to Halle.
Halle opened II with a prayer on
her lips She went through the
legal phraseology hastily. picking
out the two ineligible things that
told her Eric was engaged for six
months at a salary Of S45 week
Eric's glance caught hers before
she could speak. She said, That's
splendid, dear"
Eric retrieved the contract and
put it back in his pocket.
1T doesn't pay a fortune-yet,"
he said. But it's more than I'd
make as bank clerk"
He shot a glance that was pure
defiance at Win.
Halle, following the glance,
thought; How much they are alike,
yet not alike There was the same
bone structure Of their tall, loosely
knit bodies, the same broad facial
bones, the same hair line that Hal
lie loved But the eyes and the
mouths were different. 1t wasn't
only that Wins face was older;
there were qualities in his generous
mouth, his steady eyes that Eric
did not have Halle found herself

 The action appeared imminent and was hastened by two refusals of industry to curb price increases. Henderson announced the Chrysler Corporation refused to rescind re- cent price increases for it's new models.
 And last night several New York furniture manufacturers announced price boosts of about five per cent despite the administrators request that such increases be first. sub mitted to his office.

WASHINGTON-In the summer of 1899, shortly before the war started, Germany was trying to WOO Russia one way while France and Britain were trying to woo her the other. Russia, everyone knew, could tip the balance for peace or war.
 So the British had a military trade mission in Moscow, the French sent some minor diplomats there-and the Germans sent q group of their most important statesmen, including Foreign Min ister von Ribbentrop.
 It never leaked out. but during that summer, President Lebrun of France proposed to Premier Dala- dier that Edouard Herriot. the Mayor of Lyons, go to Moscow as special envoy. Herriot had been Premier of France, was one of the outstanding figures of the nation, and long a great friend of Russia. Lebrun argued that if anyone could WOO Russia to the French side, Herriot could do it.
 But Daladier refused. He did not want to focus too much public att tention upon a political rival. Her riot, he feared, might crowd him for the limelight.
 The events which followed are well known. Germany brought Rus sia into an alliance. And (although Russia has come to regret that all liance), it was this deal between Stalin and Hitler which precipitat- ed the invasion of Poland and the war.
 Perhaps Herriot might have failed in Moscow. But perhaps he could have delayed the Russo Ger man alliance one month-by which time the rainy season would have started in Poland. No one will ever know-because personal jealousies and politics counted in France more than public security.

ROME. June 26-- Admiral Dunci, of the Italian Navy to- day said Japan will probably join the Axis in the war against Russia and will occupy certain bases in Siberia as a move against the United States.
 Admiral Dmnci said Japan may occupy all of Sakhalin Is- land, the Soviet base at Petro- pavlosk, also Siberian bases which may be used against Japan if the Nippon Nation does enter the war with Ger many and Italy against Russia.
 These occupations will also prevent commercial aid to the United States, says Admiral Dunci and thus will require and Dunci and thus will require and force Japan to further reex- amino her defense problem to- ward the west and north."
 Admiral Dunci makes the statement in the II Gironale di Italia, the newspaper edited by Gayda, the official mouthpiece of Premier Mnssolini.
 The Admiral further said that "Japan's complete occupa- ton of Sakhalin Island and the base at Pctropavlosk will complete Japanese security to- ward the north and occupation of Siberian bases against pos sible war initiative of the United States"
