Lights will be turned up again on
November along the Nation s
coasts as the Army and Navy mark
down a victory over the prowling
enemy submarine.
In a joint announcement, the
War and Navy Departments, the
War Production Board and the
Once of Civilian Defense urged that
the dimout be succeeded by a
"brownout" semidimming to con-
serve critical resources used in gen.
Grating electric power.
The lights were lowered originally
because the glow from cities on the
Atlantic. Pacific and Gulf Coasts
silhouetted ships and set up targets
for night-ranging subs But the
announcement said that the sue
cessful campaign against enemy subs
had made the dimout unnecessary.
Recently the civilian volunteer
airplane spoilers were freed OF their
duties when the Army signified its
ability to watch over the airways.
The move made thousands of men
and women throughout the country
available to other part-time or full
time work
The urging OF voluntary brown

coal, oil, gas and other resources.
carried with it the warning that
unless the public co-operates man.
datory regulation Of night lighting
will be necessary.
The announcement also noted
that despite the end of the lighting
ban. all communities must remain in
readiness to restrict lighting or even
go into total blackouts If the subma-
rlne menace again becomes serious.
The joint order ends all restric-
tions on all types of lighting on the
Atlantic. Gulf and Pacific Coasts.
The WPB said this includes adver-
tising signs, boardwalk lights, auto
mobile headlights and any other
kind of lighting.
The proposed "brownout" is purely
voluntary, the WPB said.

Compulsory Dimout Two COP Legislators
On Coasts Ends Nov. | Charge Lovett Shift
As J.. Boat Peril Eases F|outs Conoress
BY the Associated Press.

os tnS hssOClNted FIeSS.
Two Republica legislators
charged late yesterday that Interior
Secretary Ickes, with the support of
the President, is flouting orders of
Congress by trying to keep DR.. Rob-
ert Morss Lovett on the Government
payroll.
Representative Keefe, Republican.
of Wisconsin told the House that
this shows the development of a
Fascist threat in our own economy. ."
The charges against Secretary
IckeS by Mr.. Keefe and Representa- :
tive Church. Republican. of Illinois
were touched of by disclosure that
Mr.. Lovett, Government secretary of
the Virgin Islands. had been given
a new job as executive secretary or
assistant to Gov. Charles Harwood
of the islands. They contended that
his duties would be the same in the
new post.
Gives Chance for Challenge.
Fowler Harper. Interior Depart
ment solicitor. told newsmen after
House Insular Affairs Committee
hearing on Virgin Islands relief
work, that the job change had been
made to give Mr.. Lovett an oppor-
tunity to challenge in court a con-
eressional rider barring him from
Government employment unless GER
tain requirements were met.
Mr.. Harper said the test probably
would come on December | when
the controller generals Office must
decide whether to give Mr.. Lovett
his monthly pay check. The control
ler's Office, Mr. Harper said, has in
dicated it will hold up Mr.. Lovetts
salary.
Congress. through a rider on an
appropriation bill last June, barred
Mr.. Lovett and two others from
Government employment after No
vember IS. unless appointed by the
President and confirmed by the Sen
ate. An Appropriations Committee
called Mr.. Lovett unfit" to hold his
Job because of alleged political be-
liefs.
Needs No Confirma ton.
This appointment as executive
secretary is just way of getting
around the law, because in such
position Mr. Lovett does not need
Senate confirmation" Mr.. Church
told the Insular Affairs Committee.
Mr.. Keefe declared that Mr.. Ickes,
taking his cue from the President.
has decided to deliberately snap his
fingers at Congress and retain Mr..
Lovett on the payroll"
The President already has served
notice that he will not be bound by
the rider which he called an EN-
croachment' on the judicial and ex-
ecutive branches of the Government.
The two others named in the rider
are William E. Dodd, jr., and Good
win B. Watson of the Federal Com
munications Commission.

Expects Few Refusals.
1T is to be assumed that the in
stances will be few in which con-
tractors will refuse to execute con-
tracts with the Government solely
by reason of the inclusion Of an
antidiscrimination provision.
But, in such instances, no useful
purpose could possibly be served by a
requirement that the Government
agency involved could not consum-
mate a contract with such individ-
uals or firms without the provisions
in question, especially If the desired
services could not be procured from
any other source.
1T seems that the most that can
be accomplished by Government
contracting agencies in carrying out
the national policy Of nondiscrim-
ination in the employment of work.
ers as declared by the President is
to secure the assent of contractors to
such provisions wherever and when
ev, : possible.
otherwise the net effect of the
requirement would be to obstruct
the activities of the several agen-
cies of the Government, with no
apparent compe-' sating benefit"
Accordingly, 1t is concluded that
the paragraph of Executive Order
No. 9346, involving the inclusion in
Government contracts of pro-
vision obhgating the contractor not
to discriminate against any employe
or applicant for employment be-
cause of race, creed, color or ma
tional origin. in requiring him to
include a Nike provision in sub
contracts, was intended only as a
directive to the contracting agencies
OF the Government so that failure
to include such provision will not
render void an otherwise proper
contract"

After some little delay the man
traced her. "That would be the
young lady who's a Waaf, miss?
he asked with a friendly interest
eyes, She's a great friend Of
mine. I'm terribly anxious tt
know how she is and to see her
if it's possible"
She waited while inquiries were
made. 1t was an agonizing few
minutes. Supposing the worst
had happened? A hundred fears
haunted her. The man stuck his
head through the little cubby
hole of his office. "She's on the
third floor, miss. If you will &C
up the nurse will see YOU"
Stella took the elevator. She
emerged into a long wide CORR

I'm really the nearest person tc

The nurse smiled reassuringly
Briefly she told Stella what had
happened and went on, 'The Of

been quite beside himself with
anxiety. I'm expecting him back
at any moment. Poor man, he's

that evening. cts Jane, Rupert.
There's been an accident. She's
badly hurt"
The quick concern in Rupert's
voice touched her heart. Darling
I'm so sorry. Can do anything?"
Il don't think so. I'll telephone
you this evening, if you're likely
to be at your apartment, and tell
you when I'll be coming back to
town. l just don't know quite
what I shall do until 1 get there.
If it's really serious l shall want
to stay"
1T it's really serious, will you
telephone to me and let me come
down and be with your"
Stella promised she would. She
hung up the receiver and leaned
for a moment against the side Of
the telephone booth, thinking
how grateful she was to be able
to turn to Rupert in her anxiety.
The girl who had telephoned-
Sparks, she'd said was her name
had sounded so dreadfully con-
cerned about what had happened.
She'd heard of Stella from Jane
and when the accident had hap
pened, had guessed that Jane
would want her to be told She'd
called the Duke street apartment
first, that being the telephone
number that she'd found among
James papers-and had then been
given Mrs. Blake's number.
Stella hurried up the steps of
the hospital and found the in
quiry office. She asked for Jane.

yes? This is Miss Carruthers

A pleasant voice explained that

friend of yours"
Jane, Why, yes" Stella's voice
sharpened and her heart beat
more quickly in sudden appre-
hension, is anything wrong?"
Mrs. Blake, standing on the
stairs, listened wide-eyed and
deeply interested to the one-sided
conversation that followed. Miss
Carruthers' friend had had an &C
cident and been taken to the hos
pital. The wing of an airplane
had knocked her down and she
was still unconscious. Mrs. Blake
shook her head.
Stella replaced the receiver.
She told Mrs. Blake that she was
going out again at once. Yes, her
greatest friend had had a serious
accident. She was going to her

Stella could we'll imagine how

to wait just little while. If you
would care to sit in the waiting
room downstairs-no, that's such
cherries place. Come in here
this is my sitting room. Please dc
make yourself at home"
'Thank you. You're very kind. D
The nurse closed the door upon
her. Stella walked to the window
and looked down on the street
below She stood there quite still
praying for James recovery. She
didn't hear the door behind her
open. Only as it closed again
was she aware of any sound. She
turned and her breath caught in
her throat.
'"Tipsn'
"Stella!'
They stared at each other. They
said simultaneously, What are
you doing here?"
Stella said, James my dearest
friend"
Tips looked as if he couldn't
believe it. "Why didn't she tell
me?"
Stella felt the color creep into
her cheeks. "That was my fault
| didn't want her to. II just
sort of thought I'd rather you
didn't know where I was. I had
an idea that if Jane told you she
and l were such friends, you
might feel you ought to do some
thing about me-"
ooh, Stellar There was a
wealth of reproach in his voice
Stella said gently, I'm sorry,
Tips. l wish now that I'd let her
tell you
Tips ran a hand back over his
hair. I'm beginning to see now
what must have happened. That
was why she suddenly changed.
At first she was sweet to me and
it was all plain sailing-or looked
as if it were going to be- Then
one night when I dined with her
she was utterly different. That
must have been when she'd dis
covered that you and I had once
been married." His eyes dark
ened. Il take it you didn't give
me a very good character?"
Stella said desperately, and as
she felt, wholly inadequately,
I'm sorry Tips. Oh, Tips please

Stella looked at him pitingly

nurse came in at last and said
that there were signs of returning
consciousness. She'd tell them

LAP"
"A man called Rupert Grant.
I've known him for some years"
A warm glow ran through her as
she said these words. It was odd
how quite suddenly she knew
that now she had met Tips again
she could marry Rupert. She'd
been in love with a dream and
now she had awakened. "And
you, Tips? What's been happen
ing to your"
Nothing very much. Until I
met Jane.
She went back across the years
and asked a question, bringing
back to their minds a time that
both wanted to forget but know
ing that after once it would new
er be mentioned again. ''What
happened to Fay, Tips?"
A shadow crossed his face.
'She died."
"Oh, Tips"

name wasn't brought in. She was

Stella looked at him, bleakly.
What could she say, she asked
herself? To tell him she was
sorry was so desperately made
quate. "You were wrong about
Fay and me, Stella" he said
quietly. Il told you that once
before and you wouldn't believe
me-"
Il Just don't know what to say,
Tips"
''That's all right"
Il was such little fool in
those days."
1--WE were both rather young.
Maybe that was what was wrong
with US"
She held out her hand to him.
Can we be friends now"
He took the hand and held it
tightly for a moment. "Of course.
my dear"
THANK you, Tips That's very
generous Of you
There was the sound of foot
steps in the corridor and the door
opened. The nurse smiled from
one to the other. She's recovered
consciousness and Doctor David
son is feeling most confident
about her. I wonder which of
you would like to see her first"
Stella hesitated. Tips said, "You
go first, Stella"
Stella followed the nurse
down the long corridor into a
private room where they had put
Jane. She looked as white as
the snowy coverlet, a bandage
around her head, a little stray
dark curl showing. She gave
Stella a faint smile. Darling,

held it. 'I'm going to be all
right. Have you seen Tips, darl-

with him."
Stella felt James fingers tight
en- convulsively in her own.
Whatever happened she mustn't
let Stella see how it affected her.
Besides, she had to be glad for
