With The AEF
Maquis And The Future
BY KENNETH L. DIXON

SOUTHERN FRANCE, Aug. 20
-Delayed)-(R-I spent last night
at a little village high in the heart
OF the Maquis country. Fighting
Frenchmen of the woods came into
town to get food and ammunition.
They stayed long enought to cele-
brate briefly the liberation of
Paris, about which they had just
heard.
There was note of grimness
even to their singing because, for
Instance, out of 80 Maquis who
came from a nearby town, only
four were still alive last night to
sing. There was an eye missing
here, hand off there, and other
countless samples of the gestapo's
persuasion methods.
They tell endless stories, illu-
trated by pictures of bodies hung
by meat hooks, headless corpses
placed on display as warning, or
disembowled bodies. Almost any
veteran Maquis can show you
plenty of whip-scarred back.
Many Lidices
There is hardly an area in this
part of France that doesn't have
its own lidice.
But the men feel the war-weary
world may be both bored by and
skeptical of too many atrocity
stories, so they said it was best
not to talk so much about that
but more of their organization and
their hopes.
Through an evening of listening
to their conversation-partially in
terpreted, partially understandable
in any language things SEEM
ed to stand out:
That had the Germans not start

many the Maquis might never have
been formed.
That despite being busy fighting,
they have been doing plenty of
thinking and planning for the post
war period.
I'VE opposed collaboration from
the start" young Maquis captain
said. But first it was only a sort
of passive opposition. Then when
the Nazis started hauling us off to
Germany we took to the hills and
formed bands"
Although in the cities under
ground members usually only knew
two companions, he said, due to
the fear of being forced by torture
to talk if captured, the hill men
knew scores. of their comrades.
Therefore only the most trusted
ever were sent to town for supplies
and information. Others were for
hidden to visit villages even though
this meant months without seeing
their families.
While the younger men of the
Maquis danced and sang with the
village girls, those in their late
20's and early 30's discussed the
future of France.

New Kind of Face Powder
Makes Her Look Years Younger!

ONCE this lovely girl looked quite
~ bit older. Some people actually
thought she was rapidly approaching

For she was the innocent victim of

such an unkind powder-treacherous

in her face-accented every little skin

But look at her now! Can you guess
her age? Would you say she is 90

THAT is the main hope of the

''Not on your life, Valeral I've got
Taussig's charts and I'm getting

Pete tore loose, leaped to the gal
lery rail and over. Anne moved
slowly forward, all the strength gone
out of her. Miguel caught her in
his arms and held her for a mo-
ment. He kept his arm around her,
steadying her, as they went to the
gallery. The great motors of the
black and yellow plane roared. Di-
ego Gongaro was climbing in. Mr..
Taussig, running doggedly and with
surprising pace, was fifty yards off,
far ahead of Pete Wilcox.
Miguel's arm frightened around her
waist. He was watching silently, his
lips compressed and his face grave.
Then suddenly she felt the violent
forward lurch of his body. Her eyes
flashed open. The field was alive
with soldiers, coming from every

Anne felt her heart had stopped
beating altogether. It leveled off,
dangerously close to the hillside, the
roar of the motors dying out. Anne
closed her eyes as it nosed up for
one last time, and crashed down,

Miguel had not moved or said a
word. He was bent forward rigidly,
waiting. Suddenly he relaxed. She
looked at him.
"Miguel!"
He turned to her, his face haggard
and tired.
''It wasn't supposed to happen
that way, Anne" he said gently.
''It wasn't supposed to get off the
ground at ALL"
Anne started unzipping Sues frilly
blue dress as soon as she closed
the door of her room in the Ora
NADIA and got one of her own out of
the closet. She came back into the
room and looked around. It seemed
ages since she and Sue and Mr..
Taussig had been there. A note
was propped up in the middle of the
bed. She picked it up.
"Anne-I've decided to try to save
the pieces like you said. Call me

face out so she wouldn't see what
was really in it.
