CHAPTER SEVEN

MARYS restraining hand was
crushed back against her as
Bruce's arms went around her in
a band of steel. His hand CROPPED
its way to the back Of her head
pressed it forward until her lips
met his in long, hard kiss. There
was no tenderness in the embrace
only conquest and a passion
that was close to antagonism.
For Mary. it was agony. That
strange sweet alchemy of attach
ment she had felt for him in the
past weeks was changing now to
ashes within her. There was nc
mysterious belonging here. This
was stranger cold. brutal
stranger. They were worlds apart
universes apart-and the tighten
ing of his arms around her, the
strong, possessive pressure Of his
lips on hers, were widening that
distance.
He lifted his head abruptly in a
gesture of surprise. Slowly one of
his hands CROPPED for her face, his
fingers touched her cheeks. Puz-
zled. resentful he muttered, For
Gods sake, what are you crying
about -
Mary struggled for control.
"Please-go," she managed at last.
'Please-go away-go away"
He was staring at her in annoyed
bewilderment when the telephone
rang. Mary moved toward it me-
chanically and picked up the re-
ceiver.
Hello she said in a lifeless
voice.
A woman's voice came over the
wire, fiat. clipped, impersonal. rs
this Miss Frances Bonds home ?"
Yes. I'm her roommate"
Il see. Miss Bond was in an ac-
cident tonight on her way home.
She is at the Long Beach hospl-
tai"
Marys cry Of horror echoed
through the dark room. "No-not
Fran No" Her world seemed to
be breaking up around her. every
foundation she had thought under
her, slipping out one after the 9TH
er on this fearful night Of black
ness. And then Bruce Martin was
taking the receiver from her, ask
ing crisp questions Of the woman,
giving her sharp decisions. He put
down the receiver and his hand
found Mary's arm
Come on" he said. They don't
think it's conclusion" He pushed
her toward the door into the hall.
Dazed, Mary asked, where are
we going?"
In a strange, new voice OF calm
purpose, Bruce Martin said, why,
TO the hospital, Of course"
Dawn was just sending pale hn-
gers through the windows OF the
hospital lounge when a nurse came
in to tell them they could see Fran
now.
She's awake and asking for
you
Mary got unsteadily to her feet,
with Bruce Martins help. So used
to his presence had she grown in
these three hours Of anxious vigil
that when he said now, "IIl wait
here" It startled her.
Please come" she begged.
Without further argument he
went along down the long corridor

military police.

Of the camp-largest of the centers

"A small. but well-organized pro-
Axis group took advantage of the
situation to seize control of the
largest of the three Poston units
and create general strike" he said.
The recalcitrants had been bar
ricaded in the community Jail since
Wednesday. They forced their city
council to resign, Mr.. Head said,
and had caused stoppage of all
work in unit No. /.
Mr.. Head said about a third of

| Senate Approves.
Then Rejects
Ad Ban

The Senate this afternoon passed
bill prohibiting liquor advertis-
ing In the District and then with
drew its approval Of the measure.
1t was reached on the call of the
unanimous consent calendar and
when no one objected, the presid-
ing onicer declared 1t passed.
A moment later Senator Guffey,
Democrat, Of Pennsylvania moved
to reconsider the vote, explaining
he had planned to object to its pas
sage, but did not hear it called.
At the suggestion Of Minority
Leader McNary of Oregon, Senator
Gufey's request for reconsideration
was granted by unanimous consent,
which put the bill back on the calen-
dar Of unpassed bills. Even II pas
sage Of the bill had not been
rescinded, Senator Guffey's action
in moving to reconsider would have
prevented it from going to the
House for action on Senate amend
ments.
In addition to banning liquor adj
vertising, the bill would extend the
dry zones around churches, schools
and certain other institutions from
600 to 600 feet.
