I nap before dinner. Mr. Sembler Is
coming to see US tonight and we
don't want to be all tired out"
Kit slept easily, falling of into
the light sleep of convalescence.
She woke suddenly some time later
and found that she was trembling.
She wasn't quite awake as the
awareness Of her trembling fright
ened her; she remembered her
dream. She felt the weight Of her
subconscious depression. She had
dreamed that she was alone in her
apartment and she couldn't get out,
none could get in to her.
The summer twilight came into
the room through the windows and
the girl fastened her gaze on the
reassuring view, clinging to the
movement Of her present security.
Someone moved in the doorway.
She turned and saw that it was
Jerry.
Jerry" she cried out to him.
He came to her swiftly, putting
his arms around her. She trembled
in his arms. He smoothed her hair
tenderly. ITS all right, darling.
Whatever is the matter. I'll make
1t right"
1t seemed to her then, with her
head against his strong young
shoulder, that Jerry could make
anything right. She chung to him.
The nurse ratified the china on
the tray in her hand. $50, we have
company" she said cheerily, pre-
tending not to see them draw apart
from each other. She arranged the
tray on a bed table and tucked a
napkin under Kits chin. Can you
imagine what our patient said to-
day, Mr.. Sembler? She says she
doesn't want to go home"
That's because I'll miss the
view," Kit told him. I've grown to
love the country"
Later, when the nurse had left
them, Jerry said humbly, Kit, you
can always have the country. I'll
build you a house wherever you
want it If you'll marry me-"
Jerry"
II didn't think 1t would be this
way when we first knew each
other. 1 never really wanted to get
married. But now l do. You're in
love with me. but you haven't found
it out yet. You'll discover 1t when
we're married. l want you to
marry me right away"
She shook her head. I'm not In
love with you, Jerry"
We've always lot along to-
gether. You won't have to work
any more, Kitty. We can play for
the rest Of our lives. If we 20 on
as we have, I'll be satisfied with it
that way"

WobbIy Economic Structure
May Decide Jopon's Future
Drastic Steps Forecast in Effort to
Ease Pressure on Trade Position

The dual strain of war and dis
located trade, diplomatic sources
said today, may become so intense
on Japan's economic structure that
realization of Japanese dreams of
"a new order" in the Far East must
be indefinitely postponed.
Because of the increasingly crit
ical state of affairs, it was said,
Japan may feel compelled to take
drastic steps" in an effort to remedy
the countrys economic position. The
diplomatic sources based their opin-
ions on authoritative information
recently received.
AS examples of what to expect in
event of a drastic steps, decision,
these sources cited Japan'S armed
intervention in French Indo-China,
the strong pressure on the Neither
lands East Indies for extensive
economic concessions, and the dip
lomatic push to establish Japa-
nese- dominated East Asia economic
sphere"
American officials are interested in
the effect that decreasing trade and
increasing economic stress may
have on Japan's policies and actions
in view of possible repercussions on
American-Japanese relations.
Foreign trade statistics reveal, Of
flcialS here reported, that, despite
frantic efforts to turn the tide,
Japanese exports to gold-paying
countries have been steadily de-
creasing to an extent that greatly
diminishes Japans ability to pur-
chase essential raw materials in
many countries.

Japan's serious need Of oil, cotton
and other commodities for indus
trial as well as wartime production
In the face of its drastically re-
duced purchasing power, it was re-
ported. consequently may become
the paramount consideration in
Japan's future policy toward the
South Sea areas which possess such
a store Of strategic and raw ma
terialS.
Toxic has sought to prevent dis
closure of unfavorable economic in
formation by discontinuing publica-
tion of tables on Japan's import and
export trade with geographical areas
and specific countries.
From figures available for the
first eight months of 1910, however,
trade analysists have found that
while exports to China, Manchukuo
and other yen-bloc countries have
increased, there has been steady
decline in sales to nations where
the japanese are paid in gold, dol
lars or other vitality needed foreign
exchange.
Imports from gold-paying coun-
tries (chief1y raw materials needed
for industry and war supplies) ex-
ceeded exports during the first eight
months by 825,000,000 yen, the fig
ures show, reversing the favorable
trade balance Japan enjoyed in
normal years.
THE yen is officially valued at
2344 cents. but can be bought for
to cents in some Far Eastern
