One of the customers, an habitue

plane somewhere, had been trying
to get some outstanding band singer
to add the song to her repertory.
"It's too smart" some of them
would say. Its too difficult, or too

others did not quite understand
the lyrics, as far removed as Max
well Anderson could make them
from the conventional June-moon
rhymings of the standard lyricist.
A few bands, Sandy Williams and
Johnny Shaws among them, would
play the number and the customers
would like it to the point of asking
If there were not words, and why
not have them sung?
The leader of the movement had
virtually abandoned hope when Miss
Byres launched brightly into the

almost as smart and almost as rare,
Noel Coward's Never Again."
Smart numbers" said Miss Byres
modestly after introducing them.
Smart girl" said the happy man.
If you would like to hum along
with Miss Byres, very softly, of
course, here are the full lyrics Of
Anderson's brilliant ballad:
"It never was you.
1t never was anywhere you.
An occasional sunset reminded me,
Or flower hanging high on a
tulip tree,
Or one red star hung low in the
west,
Or a heartbreak's call from a
meadow lark's nest,
Made me think for a moment
maybe it's true
I've found you in star,
In a call in the blue,
But 1t never was you,
1t never was anywhere YOU"
There will be some changes made
as the result of the new 80 per cent
Federal tax which has added to
night club checks on April /. Some
OF the local places are undecided,
some are retaining the status quo,
but the general consensus is a new
schedule in most after dark clubs.
For instance, the Mayflower will
discontinue its afternoon dancing,
while the Statler has dancing in the
Embassy Room only. The Cartons
Congo Room Is continuing on the
same basis, but the Latin Quarter
Room in the Old New Orleans will
urge down stairs dining from that
time on. The Madrillon will have
dancing from $3.50. Treasure Island
Will feature trio from 6 to 8, Just
as Ell Patio is planning to do. The
Shoreham will continue its present
policy, as will the Anchor Room.
The Club 400 has moved its start
ing time to 9 pm, while the Del
lilo Will continue as usual, with
the Hotel 2400 and the Hotel Roose-
velt. And so on, down the line.
Another week will give a much more
clearcut picture of the situation.

Mr.. Hebert also protested that Mr.

1T is extremely difficult for me

not be entirely willing to allow any

place of having a public agency do
it," he continued.
Mr.. 1hlder contended that private
builders have made it clear they do
not want projects for the lowest in

not make profit.
When Mr. Hebert demanded to
know why with these people max

would take the NCHA into the

contrary ito the policy on public

Mr.. Ihlder contended that it was
up to private builders to erect hous-

NCHA tenants could be graduated.

Ry the Associated Press.
LONDON, Aug. 31.-Prime Minis
ter Mikolajczyk of the Polish gov
ernment in exile announced today
an offer to Russia to form coalition
cabinet with equal representation of
Poland's five parties.
On the eve of the fifth anniversary
of the German attack on Poland
starting this war, the Prime Minister
said his nations fate is q great test
case for the world" He said Warsaw
again had called for help, but that
the Russians had not yet granted
permission for Allied shuttle planes
to land on Soviet soil in order to
support Gen. Bor's still-f fighting
Patriot army in the capital.
I'VE are near the end of this war"
Mr.. Mikolajzyk said. THE ideolog-
ical principles of the war, comprised
in the Atlantic Charter and Four
Freedoms, have somehow depre-
ciated in value in favor of power
politics"
AS a result, he said, such States
as Poland cannot conduct their
policy in the seclusion of diplomatic
conferences, but must conduct it
honestly and openly in the light of
the day before the public opinion of
the great powers"
The exiled governments plan for
accord with the Soviet-sponsored
Polish Committee of National Lib
Grafton has been approved by the
Polish underground and by his cab
met and is en- route to Moscow the
PWme Minister said. Under its
terms:
l. The government will be re-
constructed when Warsaw is lib
Grated.
2. Mr.. Mikolaj jczyk would return
to Warsaw and consult various polit-
ical parties regarding their candi-
dates for government posts.
3. A cabinet would be formed with
equal representation of the popular
Social Democratic, National Demo-
cratic, Christian Labor and Polish
workmans political parties. The
last is Russian-sponsored group
4. The government will include
no person known to be a Fascist.
S. The new government would re-
new diplomatic relations with Rus
sia and agree with Russia on ad-
ministration of civilian affairs be-
hind Red Army lines.
6. Preparations would be insti-
tuted for elections
7. A war cabinet would be created
on the pattern of the British. to
govern military forces, and the post
of commander in chief would be
abolished.
This latter provision was designed
to meet Russian antipathy to Gen.
SosnkowSki.
