all was still. Snow that had been
falling steadily had settled. a soft

that Steve could no longer see
through his window.
He lifted a tiny mass of yellow
growth from a plate with "A slim

not whistle. 1t was only two dav,

the shadows heightened and dark
ness crcpt into his house, he had
stopped.
He knew then that she was not
coming.
Her presence had been there all
day like the scent of her perfume.

memory, coming and going as rap

laughter. . She was not coming
ana 1t was Just as Wcll. She didn't
belong there in his laboratory, in
his life. 1t wasn't. that she wa in
the way; she moved deity doing
the things he had taught her to do.
She could be useful, not as useful
as young Dawson, but she had APP
tltude that could be trained, yet -.
FROM the very beginning, Steve
had felt that she was dangerous to
HIM, and he had set up barriers.
Then she had revealed their weak
ness, tantalizing woman-with her
hand held out in friendship, her
shoulder to his-lulling him to \
sense of security, to a belief in her
sincerity.
"IW come Th~1usday, nothing

1t was Thursday, and the day

But when she drove home early
from Mates on the Sunday night
before Thanksgiving, she found his
note slipped under her door.

Daphne got that far and was torn
between indignation and tears, and
read on: In the meanwhile, if you
are quite certain that you'd like to

Daphne would like to have asked
hlm If his impressions of her had
not been gathered from some Of the
silly stories he'd probably heard
about her, but she repressed the
desire.
Instead she said. 'I'd like you to

Broughton Advocates
New Medical PROGRAM

England and our less conservative
America there is a deep-seated
and growing human urge and in
sistance for a program Of welfare,
security and health available to all
people, regardless Of financial cir
cumstances.
lone is shocked by the figures
which reveal the scarcity of doc
tors and hospital facilities in the
remote and rural areas of our land.
And the mavailability Of these ser.
vices and facilities to millions OF
people in the low income brack-
ets," he said.
Citing selective service figures
on deferments because OF physical
unfitness as showing a need for
medical care from the cradle to
the grave" Broughton said that:
Substantially over 100000
young men have been rejected for
military service by reasons of ply
steal defects. An analysis of these
figures shows that Is per cent of
these rejections-more than 1,O00,-
900 men-are prevented from mill
tary service because Of remediable
defects. At least another 100000
would have been capable of serv-
ice had they received adequate
treatment and hospital care in their
early years."
An analysis of industrial popula-
tons would present a picture no
doubt equally graphic" he said.
Shortage of manpower, absentee
ism, and other gravely disturbing
problems are in a considerable
measure due to physical defects
Of a presently or earlier remedial
bic character.
Can America continue to be
strong enough for the challenge of
war or robust enough for the op-
portunities of peace upon so large
a percentage Of physical disability,
even among its youngest group of
citizens?"
The complete medical care pro-
gram would offer regular, periodic
and free examination of school chill
dren; hospital and medical care
for rural areas, broad encourage
ment of medical care and hospital
treatment on the basis of regular
state-supported medical schools to
supply doctors and surgeons in
small payments, establishment of
more adequate numbers, and a
program of cooperation with the
federal government.

POLISH LEADER
DELAYS VERDICT

LONDON, Sept. 24.-LRtPresi-
dent Wladyslaw Raczkiewicz Of
the Polish government in exile de-
layed decision today on a de.
mand by the cabinet that Gen.
Kasimierz Sosnkowski be remov-
ed as commander-in-chief of Po-
lish forces and the possibility de-
veloped that unless he acts soon
the entire cabinet, led by Premier
Stanislaw Mikolajczyk will re-
sign in protest.
The cabinet yesterday unani-
mously recommended General
Sosnkowski's ouster-a. step de-
manded by Russia as one of the
prices of accord with the London
government.
The Polish president was believ-
ed to be delaying acquiescence
because he also is On Moscow's
black books, with little to win
personally by the move. while he
is almost sure to lose what stand
ing he has among the military
clique.
Mikolajczky, leader of the Pc
lish peasant party, on the other
hand is anxious to get the matter
settled in order to effect a return
to Poland and reorganization of
the government under a coalition
plan in which the country's five
political parties-including that of
the rival Soviet-supported nation
al liberation committee-will be
represented.
The premier is convinced OF the
growing danger in a longer delay
and may already have threaten
ed to step out leaving Rackie-
wicz to hold the bag with little
chance of solving the long dis
pute with Russia.
If the president does act and
Sosnkowski is removed as com.
mander-in-chief ne will be replac-
ed by a war cabinet, patterned
after the British war cabinet, and
probably Gen. Dor, commander of
Polish forces now fighting in War.
saw, will be made chief of staff.
This possibility was enhanced by
latest reports from the Polish
capital saying that Dor was work.
ing closely with the Russians to
liberate the city.
