Susan was hardly aware of Edwards
going, so intent was she on Kelly's
gaunt face. She thought wildly, THAT
scar! He can be hurt. He isn't indie

heart threatened to slip. Remember

Nesting in its bed of oiled green

still fresh. Lovely rootless things.

5:45. Edward was holding a match
toward Susan's cigarette when she
saw Kelly enter the lounge. Her hand
trembled. She put down her cigarette
unlighted. Heads turned to look
at the tall man in uniform striding
toward her.
Maybe others could hear the roar
of planes, wheels on rails, ships tur-
bines, just as she could. =-.~=-------
She was shocked by the haggard
leanness of his face, the gray at his
temples, the thin red scar on his FORE
head that had not been there FIVE
months ago.
"You know Edward" she said me-
chanically.
The men shook hands. Quite
surprise" said Edward. Il was tell

There was an awkward pause.
Susan then spoke with a desperate
gaiety:

was telling her what she'd begun to

They stood in the middle Of the floor,
facing each other across the gulf OF
words. The telephones sudden ring
ing was like a fash of lightning
through storm cloud. She stood root
ed to the spot while he answered it,
listening without comprehension to
his monosyllables.
WITHOUT explanation he banged out
of the apartment. Dazedly she went
into her bedroom and set about un-
dressing.
When he returned. his face was

'Hell's about to pop. You're leaving
Moscow. Wives are being sent to

What will yoM do?' Her voice
sounded tinny and far off.

She began throwing things into a
bag without recognition, until on
opening a big carved chest, she saw
neat folds of red and white Bingham.
Kelly, coming from the bathroom with
her toilet articles, saw them too. Their
eyes met and held an instant. She let
the lid fall.
Even the sparrows in her fathers
ivy were eventually discouraged. -.

Tears pressed against her lids. The

to break loose from its moorings. He
did need her! knowing that, woman
could do anything. Through mist
filled eyes she saw men in uniform.
One day they'd be back in business

like Kelly; because of wives such as
she was going to be. The thought
made her humble, yet proud.
She lifted the violets from their box.

and even the still inexplicable arrival
OF Prof. Raymond Moley, hailed at
the time as special presidential
envoy, had not succeeded in messing
1t up.
But then President Roosevelt
stepped in with what Sir Robert Bor-
den Of Canada declared was the
"cruelest message ever sent by
responsible official. Mr.. Roosevelt
said Il would regard it as a catas-
trophe amounting to a world trag-
edy" if the conference permitted it
self "to be diverted by the proposal
of purely artificial and temporary
experiment affecting the monetary
exchange of few nations only"
What the United States wanted,
Mr.. Roosevelt said, was dollar with
"a continuing purchasing power
which does not greatly vary in terms
of the commodities and need of mod
ern civilization" that
meant.
Explanation Of Action.
The generally accepted explana-
ton of this action is that Mr.. Roose-
welt. after his delegates sailed for
London, became enamored of the
currency imitation theories of two
professors, George F.. Warren and
Frank A. Pearson. Also the Presi-
dent may have been Influenced by
sharp drop in American stocks,
caused by premature report from
London that restoration of the gold
standard had been accomplished.
There is no doubt at all that the
President took his cue from Profs.
Warren and Pearson in his subse-
quent effort to boost American
commodity prices by devaluing gold.
Specifically, this led by a series of
jumps to the $35-an-ounce gold
price at which ever since the whole
world, even including Germany,
Japan and Italy until Pearl Harbor,
has fattened its exchequers at Amer
ican expense
The British report gives no ink
ling that our United Nations broth
ers are in mood to reinauish this
soft touch" nor does Mr.. Morgen-
thau's plan reveal how 1t is to be
gotten rid Of.

be the yardstick. = = = Currencies OF
all countries would be valued In
terms of gold"
The British plan, released here
yesterday, declares just as bluntly
that "the purpose of the clearing
union is to supplant gold as a gov
erning factor. but not to dispense
with it. = = No member state would
be entitled to demand gold"
At another point the British re-
port declares that "the United States
might redistribute its gold" and
suggests that our great international
fault is that we keep our gold buried
rather than spending or loaning it.
Declaring the purpose OF its plan is
to put some part of the responsible
ity for adjustment on the creditor
country, as well as on the debtor" ~
the British report continues:
This is an attempt to recover one
Of the advantages which were en-
joyed in the 10Th century, when a
flow OF gold, due to favorable bal
ance In favor of London and Paris,
which were then the main creditor
centers, Immediately produced an
expansionist pressure and increased
foreign lending in those markets, but
which has been lost since New York
succeeded to the position of main
creditor, as result of gold move
ments failing in their effect"
Gold movement" of course, has
been all one way, to the tune of some
SIG, 1000, 100000, since the United
States Treasury in 1884 began buy
ing it from all comers at the fancy
price of s35 an ounce.
British Attitude Disturbing.
The British position now is doubly
disturbing because of all countries
other than the United States she is
the one that should be most friendly
to the gold standard. The British
monetary gold stock not only is sec
ond to ours-about 81, 500 100000 as
against s22,5OO 100000 - but the
British in South Africa have access
to the most productive gold mines
in the world.
If Britain now is cold toward gold,
what of the other 30 United Nations
whose last reported gold stocks range
downward from Russia S 1899 900 900
to Peru's s2O,OOOOOO and Colombia's s
S17000,000. On a test in the United
Nations Council as to whether gold
is to run the show the vote is likely
to be 30 to1
1t is possible also that the British
financiers are chuckling over the
opportunity now offered them to get
back At President Roosevelt for what
he did to the British -French-Dutch
effort to stabilize currencies on a
gold basis during the London eco
nomic conference of 1893.

The title-"One World'-gives
the key. Mr.. Willkie uses his
globe -encircling trip last summer
and first-hand information he
obtained in many lands to boil
ster the doctrine of friendly

is the doctrine which he has

the b lok is another important
link IL the chain of argument
which Mr.. Willkie has developed.
But aside from that, the vol
ume is fascinating story. 1t
contains "news"-back- of the
stage items of happenings that
were important in the world
picture. For example, it is re-
vealed for the first time that Mr..
Wilkes statement to the press
at Ell Alamein, "Rommel is stop
ped and a beginning has been
made ~ me task of throwing the
..hls out Of Africa" was made
at the request of Gen. Bernard
l.. Montgomery, commander of
the British 9th Army.
Had Visited Front.
Mr.. Willkie had been to the
front and had seen for himself
that the British had stopped"
Rommel completely. The British
general did not wish to give the
impression to Rommel that he
was about to start aggressive
action until some 300 American
Gen. Sherman tanks, Just landed
at Port Said, could get into
action. At the same time. he
wished to buck up the morale of
the British in Egypt. So he got
Mr.. Willkie to give this encourap-
Ing picture.
Also, it was Mr.. Willkie who
made the suggestion while he
was in China that Nine. Chang
kal-shek should make tour Of
the United States to stir up the
American people to the needs of
China.
Mr.. Wilkes trip around the
world, in which he crossed the
equator twice, was made in 40

port use. He landed in the coun-
tries of the Near East, in Russia

on the important parts which
these peoples must play in any
postwar world.

Axis. Only after this Job has
been completed can the Amer
lean fighting forces turn the
whole weight Of their power
against Japan.
Offensive Possible Next Fall.
From the practical point Of
view, Nine. Chang is said to
have understood that only
local actions will be fought
against Japan. Operations
against Burma-the former life
line of China-will have to be
postponed until the monsoon
rains are over.
Then, next fall, 1t is possible
that parts OF the British and
American navies will be free to
concentrate in the Indian Ocean
and permit the forces under
Marshal Archibald Wavell-
numbering more than 1000 900
men-to begin an offensive across
the Bay OF Bengal.
AS far as assistance in war
material is concerned, the gen.
eralissimo's wife has been told
that China must be satisfied with
whatever stuff transport planes
can convey from India to Chung
king.
The Chinese desperately need
the assistance OF the United
States and Great Britain to con-
tlnue the work started by Gen.
Chang Kai-shek. But the gener-
allssimo also realizes that the
United States, in particular.
needs China in the war If Japan
Is to be smashed.
Airf1elds Are Valuable.
1t is from Chinese airfelds
that our bombers could best plas-
ter Japan and her possessions
from the air. 1t Is from China
that ground which, &C
cording to our best military
experts, will be responsible for
final victory-can start their ac-
ton to put an end to Japanese
domination. And unless we have
China on our side, the operations
against the island empire will
be difficult and long drawn out.
The question in the minds of
many of our military observers
is how long will the generalissimo
be willing or able to resist the
Japanese? Also, how long will
his generals be willing to fight
Japans military machine with a
few airplanes, practically no
mechanical forces and with a
sad lack of modern ordnance?
There can be do doubt that
Nine. Chang will report faith
fully that those American lead
ers with whom she spoke for
hours while In Washington have
not been particularly encourage
Ing about the prospects of rushing
any real assistance to China until
the war in Europe is over.
And the generahssimo, who
besides being f1rst-class military
strategist. also has one of the
best intelligence services in the
world, will have to decide for
himself how long it will be before
the Allies are able to shift their
forces to the Pacific.
