The orders come thicR and fast for the

Of conversation Is punctuated by bursts Of
laughter and by loud, cultural EXPLANATIONS

And every one of these gentlemen. II seems,

indeed. of the whole world
The Baron" stood for a moment at the
threshold Of long. oblong room with tables
running along the walls. to the right and to
the left. This room has long been known az
the Sale Omnibus. and serves a sort of
corridor between the room with the open bar
twhere the less distinguished guests and the
more loudly dressed women are isolatedl and
the room beyond. the Sale de Danse with
an excellent orchestra, and strictly reserved
for clients of sufficient importance and
"smartness"
Although the Baron had never been 10
MaXims before, he had no trouble in recog-
nizing almost everyone in the place German
officers were to be seen at every table almost
without exception.
Immediately, the Baron" was struck by
the dazzling spectacle Of an eXpanse of white
uniform. Respondent with countless medals
and decorations it was Field Marshal Her
mann Goering, in person.
The Marshal seemed to be in excellent
spirits-not quite so obese as recent photo
graphs had pictured him and he was smil-
ing broadly. clearly relishing his cold chicken
and the bottle of vintage Alsatian wine. His
inevitable Marshal's baton was there on the
table. within easy reach
Nothing but German was being spoken
at the Marshals table. Aside from two Of
ficers of his staff. there were two-ladies
from Berlin, who seemed to be greatly thrilled
at being in Paris, in this atmosphere of gaiety
and luxury. The ladies were obviously bent
on impressing the Marshal; they eagerly kept
up lively patter of conversation.
Two tables away. in a mannish tailored
suit there was a thin, rather handsome
woman. whose severe features, however, were
beginning TO show that she was no longer
young. She was sitting there quietly, notion
less staring straight ahead Of her with her
strange notwithstanding eyes.
This was Jeni Riefenstahl the actress and
motion picture directress. She long con-
sidered to be the Fuhrers one true love
until she completely disappeared from the
scene for a while following her colossal flop
in Hollywood.
Beside her. at the table was a very small
man dressed in tight little gray suit; the
only civilian in the room who was not wear
ing tails at least a dinner-jacket. This
little man was lifting a glass of champagne
with one hand, and his other hand was around
the waist of a very pretty brunette with
bobbed hair, strikingly white skin and rather
luscious figure. She was Jenny Jugo another
German movie actress
Across the table from the little man in
gray-whos was Goebbels. of course-there
was another young woman. very charming,
voluptuous looking. who seemed tired, but
who seemed to be trying to keep the CONVEX
sation going.
Tell me-" the Baron" whispered to the
headwaiter who is that woman with His
Excelency Doctor Goebbes?"
"That one She's the movie actress.

is always room for me. Kindly tell
