Chief Woman If and placed in
CHARGE of United States Naval Re-
crutinq Station. Thereafter through
out the war and for some time follow
ina the Armistice, many hundreds Of
feminine yeonen served os stenog-
rophers, clerks, tyPists, and in similar
capacities, at Navy Yards, training
stations, and other posts, relieving
men much needed for fleet service and
sea duty.
No Act Of Congress was then nee
essory, as Naval laws permitted such
enrolment. Subsequently however,
an oct passed in 1888 stipulated that
THE Naval Reserve shall be composed
Of male citizens. e." The purpose Of
this oct was to codfy and simplify the
patchwork Of existing laws.
That no objection to women seV-
ing in the Navy in times Of emer-
eency was intended is evidenced by
the foct that Representative Melvin
}. Mas, author of the 1888 bill, is
oIso responsible for the present bill to
allow the enlistment of women. The
Navy hos expressed approval but is
giving consideration to the form the
bill should take
The Mas bill differs from the meas
ure recently posed by the House of
Representatives providing for q Wom-

act would not provide an auxiliary,
but as in World War One, would give
women full mIitory status with COM
plete equality with men in the grades,
ratings, ranks, pay and promotion"

repeat itself with profit.

is the amateur pair event In the
Eastern States Championships,
held recently. The winners were
j. G. Aceves and j. l.. O'Connor,
both of New York.
O'Connor brings out good
point in today's hand. Sitting
South, he won the opening lead
with the ace of clubs and re-
turned the five of clubs. The
king killed the 10 and on third
club lead East was in with the
queen. East led the 10 of hearts,
which South covered and West
won with the ace. West exited
with the nine Of diamonds.
Declarer now inferred from
Vests opening club lead from a
doubleton, and from his diamond
exit, that he was long in both
hearts and spades. Probably the
diamonds would not break 33,
but the uneven spade break gave
a chance for an easy extra trick.
SO O'Connor took the dia-
mond in dummy and led the
three of spades. West won the
10 with the queen, but O'Connor
was not deceived. He later fin
essed the nine of spades TO make
four-odd, one more than anyone
else made at no trump. -

High|ights from
the Latest Books

Two novels with something to
say-one as modern as Mac
Arthur, the other as ancient as
Rome-are offered this week by
two of our most distinguished
writer's. Manuel komroff pre-
sents In the Years of Our Lord"
(Harper: S2.5O, and Granville
Hicks does only One Storm"
Macmillan: S2.75).
Komroff blends the facts of
history and the hopes of faith in
to stirring story of the time of
Christ. The book is wholly in
keeping with the spirit Of the
New Testament, and the lives
and death of the characters be-
come real and contemporary.
Here are the sights and smells
Of Jerusalem, the Wise Men re-
turning from Bethlehem, the
flight into Egypt, the story of
Lazarus, the figures of the apos-
ties, and towering above all of
them, Jesus moving through his
chaotic world.
In "Only One Storm" Hicks
develops the intellectual mud
ding through so many exper-
fences before the axis exploded
and most thinkers, either of the
light or heavy variety, decided
that good old democracy wasn't
so bad after all.
Candy and Christina Kittredge
struggle against the crusty but
not-so-simple people Of a small
New England town in the story
of an honest, good-willed man
and his wife seeking the most di-
rect means of setting the forces
for good against evil.
Violently anti-fascistic, Candy
is driven by news from Europe
to embrace any political faith
that will make him a part of the
front against dictatorship in all
its homegrown and foreign
guises. Communism? He is ready
to Join when the Nazi-Soviet pact
is signed. This compromise sick
ems him but the storm gathers
still more darkly. Candy and
Christina find themselves and
YOU will leave them with envy.

ranch here and ranch in Ok
lahoma, where a town officially
has been renamed for him. He
also controls lot Of local real

publishing company.
For years he wanted a big
rodeo and wild west show, and
he finally organized one against
the pleadings of all his associates

that Gene would lose his shirt,
and maybe his fancy pants along
with it, they pointed to the I'M

He travelled around Arabia q

Soud. TwitcheII began to oct
os an informal adviser TO the
king and in one Of their many
folks they hit the subject OF
what might be done to improve
the Arabian desert and the Be-
douin people. Where in the
history Of the world had there
been q similar civilization in q

been dore to improve il?

TwitchelI had on ideo. He
thought that the work Of i'm

ed TwitchelI to return to the

Of the situation and bring him

The Vermcnter returned 10
the United Stotes in February,
194l. He spent some time in
Washington, stu dying the

New Mexico, studying conser-
votion Of land ond water, irri-
cation and the development
Of Indian orts and crafts as q

HOLLYWOOD, April Dur
ing a chat with one-time
ranch hand and telegraph opera
tor by the name of Gene Autry,
your correspondent has gathered
some facts from the newest
chapter in one of the most amaz-
ing of all American success stor-
les.
The stars overstuffed side
kick, Smiley Burnette, helped
with some of the details. 1t al
so should be recorded that Bur-
nette, during the IL years of
their association, has contribut-
ed quite a lot TO the success
story. ~
Autry's current enthusiasm is

itor. On the radio almost con-
tinuously since 1926, Autry's
records-plus songs he has help
ed to write or has made famous
are being played somewhere
every minute of every day.
He gets more fan mail than
any two or three other stars in
Hollywood. More significant is
the fact that Autry's mail con-
slsts almost entirely of personal
tributes rather than requests for
money. His popularity has
reached the point where whole
schoolrooms of kids write to him
as exercises in composition.
Autry is wary about CONNER

featured under his name. There
