will be coming back is not cash payments or loans but jobs and the favored American way of making and paying their way in the world. It might be well at this time to take look into the future and see if figure out who is going to have the problem of supplying jobs in the postwar period
 Certainly the Territory can't do the job a governmental function, at least only temporarily, and it is equally certain that labor unions can't supply the jobs.
 It seems to us that after all of the flag waving and smoke has cleared away the bulk of this employ ment problem will be where it always has been-in the hands of business and industry.
 It would follow, then that the job of the Legisa- ture would be to do everything possible to make this great task little easier.
 But contrary to this, just about everything has been done, or attempted this session to hamstring business and industry to hang mestones around the businessans neck, let alone trying to do some thing to attract new industry and expand present ones.
 Yes, business and industry have certainly been the whipping boys of this session.
 Labor has been speaking in loud and effective voice. Gin spite of the fact that several opportunities have been lost through the wanderngs of several of the laborite members) Educational groups probably will have everything they need; pensioners and other of the recipients of social security minded measures have been we'll taken care of, and if the boys and girls get together we may even have a legazed health department and more money along this line.
 But we hope that the Legislature hasn't been too socially forward in its decisions and too short sighted in the probably effect of their actions upon the economic conditions of the Territory
 It is too easy for the business men, who will have the real job of making go of the postwar world, to take their marbles and play in someone elses yard

POSTWAR CONSCRIPTION

Although no final decision has been made by FDR. personally, Undersecretary of War Bob Pat terson and several other White House advisers are urging him to press for immediate Congressional action on a postwar compulsory military training law covering all men l8 to 26.
 Patterson and some of the Army brass hats want Roosevelt to jam the Conscription Bill through Con- gress before the war is over. They are using the line with F.D.R. that passage of a peacetime Conscription Bill by Congress now will be fur ther evidence to the United Ma tions that this country will main tain a sizeable military force to help keep the peace.
 Congressional leaders so far are against immediate consideration, feel they'll have their hands full in the next few months getting more urgent postwar measures through Capitol Hill, such as jobs, without starting up terrific conl troversy over conscription.

SYNOPSIS


When Drue Cable learned her
former husband. Craig Brent, was
the victim of so-ealled accidental
bullet. she persuaded her friend
and fellow nurse, Sarah Keate. to
answer with her the call made by
DR.. Claud Chivery from a small
New England town. Sarah was I'M
aware of Drue's previous connec-
ton with the Brent family. which
included Craig's father, Conrad;
Alexia, Conrad's glamorous young
wife who, al one time, had hoped
to marry Craig; Nicky Senour,
Alexia's twin brother; and Peter
Huber, a frlend OF Craig. Anna
Haub, maid at the Brent mansion,
told how Craig was found in the
garden the previous night. adding,
"Beevens. the butler. said il was
an accident-Mr. Craig was clean
ing a gun" Alexia ordered Drue
to leave before Conrad Brent dis
covered her presence. Drue told
Sarah the strange story OF her ro-
nance with Craig. They married
more than year ago and Conrad
disapproved. Craig's work in the
diplomatic service summoned him
to Washington, and Drue returned
TO New York. Shortly after, she
received letter from Conrad
(Which he claimed Craig had asked
him to write) stating his son had
resigned to enter aviation training,
only to discover married men we're
ineligible. Conrad said Craig
wished Drue to divorce him, but
promised they could remarry when
the training period was over Drue
got the divorce but never received
any reply to the letters she wrote
Craig. Now, she is determined not
to leave until Craig regains con-
seriousness and can talk with her.
DR.. Chivery told the state trooper
that the bullet he removed from
Craig's shoulder was accidentally
thrown away; the gun, too, is miss
ing. He warned Sarah not to re-
peat anything the patient might
say in delirium. Later, Craig num-
bled something about yellow
gloves" From the window, Sarah
saw Drue disappear behind hedge
and emerge with something hidden
beneath her cape. A few minutes
later Drue entered the sick room,
Just as Craig cried out, But that's
murderl Tell Claud. There1l be
murder done" Sarah is summoned
by Conrad Brent and followed
Beevens into the library, as Maud
Chivery, the doctors wife was
leaving. Conrad insisted Drue
leave at once. When Sarah told
him his son was already aware of
her presence and repeated what
Craig said about murder being
DONE" he sends Beevens for Drue.
Because of Craig's critical condi-
ton, he tells Drue she may remain
until the morning when another
nurse will arrive. Drue fares up
when he denounces her for intrud-
ing and exclaims, II could kill you
for what you've done to mel"
Sarah, narrator of this story, de-
clines Conrad's invitation to tea
with the family.

said.
