A SHORT STORY

CALLY and Joe had been
- sweeties for a year or
more. During all that fan
tastic length Of time, the girl
had remained faithful and
true.
Even while Joe was gone
for two months, which was
all it took the army TO deter
mine he should have been AZ
in the first place, Sally had
done no two-timing whatso-
ever. As a matter of fact,
she hadn't so much as gone
out with another man.
The reason was simple. No
other man had asked her :.
Once or twice, Sally had
thought about leaving Joe. But
that was as far as she ever
went. For there were certain
things to be considered-things
like clothes and the apartment
and the unpleasant fact that
she would have nowhere to go

Joe was waiting when Sally

nasty mood.

he demanded. Il been hanging

At any other time, Sally might
have been a trifle apologize. But
now that she was assured ot
the protecting devotion OF the
wealthy Gerald Diggs, she could
afford 10 feel independent.

Keeps Eye Open

So Sally stayed on. And all
the while. she had a watchful
eye peeled in case something
better turned up.
She wasn't especially inter-
ested in manly charms or heavy
romance. Where Sally was con-
cerned, there was something
much more important than
those small details. IL can be
described in one word. Money.
Joe was inclined 10 be a bit
too careful about spending his
dough. At least, he lavished
little OF II on the love OF his
life. And the girl had a banker
ing for cars and jewels--and
perhaps a few good. substantial
bonds on the side.

that occasion, things got a bit
more chummy.

World War II began.
Stating that food costs which
increased 80 per cent during
World War / have increased by
AZ per cent since the beginning
of the war. Mr.. Bogart said that
the increase during the present
war occurred prior to the "hold
the line" order. Food costs have
been held down since 1943 and
in some instances have actually
decreased.
In concluding his talk, the
OPA head said that rationing
and price control were part of
the price that we must pay to
win the war. He said that price
control was an emergency meas
ure and expressed the belief that
it should be terminated with the
end Of the war. He said, how
ever, that unless price control
and rationing were continued for
the duration of the war that an
initiation would occur which
would affect the country for
many years.

MIR. Bogart presented figures
showing the comparison between
the last war and the present con-
flict. Cost of all commodities ex-
panded greatly during the last
war, according to the OPA head,
who pointed out that a much
larger proportion of the national
production output went to the
civilian population than in the
present war. Despite the fact
that nearly half our production
is going to the armed forces, our
cost of living has been kept
down, because of the Price Con-
troll Act, he said.
Citing the figures in compar-
ing the cost of commodities dur
ing the last war and World War
II Mr. .Bogart stated that furni-
ture prices rose 95 per cent dur
ing World War /, and have in
creased but "a per cent during
the present war. Clothing in

AUSTIN, Tex, May 20
(FP)-When the union man
of today is a gray-bearded
grandfather and his sons sons
ask for a story, could be he'll
tell them about the good people
of Texas, how they organized,
got moving and gave the ak to
political badmen like Martin
Dies.
Maybe he'll tell them this one
about the convention meeting of
Ward &c Democrats of Austin,
held at Windsor Road fire hall
and the resolution they passed
'regretting the existence of w.
Lee O'Daniel in American pub
lie life"
The resolution was introduced
by man named Herman Jones.
He wanted the meeting to go on
record simply ''regretting the
existence" of O'Daniel. At first
the 43 Democrats present just
laughed-almost split their sides
laughing. Whoever heard of re-
GREETING the existence of a sem
ator? But Jones insisted he real
ly meant it. He amended the res
olution, adding the words lin
American public life"
I'm serious about this thing, "
Jones said. So far as I'm con-
cerned he represents all that's
evil" His listeners thought about
it, looked at one another, slowly
nodded their heads-and the
resolution carried over only a
few scattered votes of dissent.
Right after that the delegates
passed another resolution. This
one contained nothing but words
Of praise. 1t asked President
Roosevelt to accept the nomina-
ton for fourth term.
