miles and all or parts of at least six
towns and villages, many farms and

The commission, at work since
early May, picked these places in
mid-August from a tentative list of
IS. climaxing year or so of
wrangling inside and outside the
o. N.
First of all. the member nations
couldn't agree.
Geneva, old League OF Nations
capital, was rejected early. Some
delegates feared psychological
will-to-fail hangover. The Swiss,
not in the U. NJ. were afraid of
losing their neutrality.
The choice then lay between Eu-
rope and the United States. Britain
and France backed Europe; France
said United States location would
upset the Big Five balance of power
Australia, China and much of
Latin America were for the United
States, and Russia swung in line.
A Filipino said an American u. N.
capital would help keep the United
States from backsliding into isola-
tionism. The United States was
neutral.
When the U. N Preparatory Com
mission in London picked the United
States last December, Britain
charged race prejudice in the South
and isolationism in the Midwest;
so the field was narrowed to 10
Atlantic Seaboard States.

feecy clouds. She removed her hat and Jacket,
and opened the envelope with fingers that
trembled just little.
That was when Sue found what it was like
to be hit with baseball bat.
For several seconds she stared uncompre-
hendingly at the check-a check for $l32. so.
Onbelieving, she read the letter typed on
Mark Kings business stationery:
Dear Miss Rogers: 1t gives me pleasure to
enclose my check for ten per cent of the net
proceeds on the sale of machinery to ]. M.
Mllliken & Co. Trusting the amount is salts
factory for your assistance in this matter.

"Oh-h-h-h!' Sue gasped "Oh, the great,
dull oafr'
1t was perfectly clear why he'd sent the
check by hand. He couldn't even wait for the
ordinary mail delivery to let her know that

a slim figure were no rare combination. But
there it was. He'd kept thinking about her all
day - and getting goose pimples when he
did. So he'd sent the check. To guarantee
that nothing personal could be assumed from
last night. To protect himself from another
hurt like the one he'd had so long ago.
OrlLY he found himself wishing he hadn't
done it. That he wanted to sit across table
from her and look at her, dance with her and
hear her laugh as he'd never wanted these
things with even that other girl, was some
thing he'd come to realize increasingly from
the moment his Office boy had returned to
say that the letter was irretrievably in the
letter box at Sues apartment How had she
taken the letter? And the check?
Finally he reached for the phone directory:
Hello? Miss Ro -. uh .. Sue? This is
Mark King. Did you get my letter."
There was brief silence while Sue placed
her hand over the transmitter so Mark
wouldn't hear the deep breath she took to

The woman scorned let down her hair. She
bawled and beloved. Evaporation, humilia-
ton and fury mingled in her crying. She said
some unladyIke things.
At that precise moment Mark King was
sitting in brooding discomfort in his office.
For the fiftieth time he reviewed the situa-
ton. found no satisfaction in it. There was
no accounting for the way Sue had crept into
his thoughts all day. Red hair, blue eyes and

cover her surprise and steady her voice.
"Yes, Mark. Sweet of you. I mean - so
prompt"
Mark breathed vast sigh of relief. She
wasn't angry after all. By the same token,
however, and in spite of the way she'd tried
to tease him last night, he evidently hadn't
made much of an impression on her. She'd
gone along more to please Mrs. Mike than
anything else. : But at least he didn't have
any lost ground to recover.

Huh! But
IF you should have another customer to

same terms as last night, of course"
oh"
I'm glad you understand, Mark. Good-by
now - and thanks so much"
A smile of vindictive satisfaction curled
Sues nice lips when she hung up. So he wasn't
entirely Indifferent Wanted to play little,
did he? Cautiously, of course, and ready to
take cover behind his little check until he
found out she wasn't like that other girl who
had burned him. Well. that was just too bad.
Also, it was fine The brush off she d Just given

She was glad he'd called and given her the

much better than sending the check back
with poisonous note - to say nothing of

just that much nearer Montana and away
from people from Vermont who were afraid
to take girl at her face value.
In HIS Office. Mark King unaware of having
been brushed off, thoughtfully considered the
problem of developing more customers to be
entertained. The trouble was - all his cur
rent prospects were cold turkey people inter-
ested only in facts. Mr.. Milliken had been al,
exception; and even he had, in the last analy-
sis, bought on the basis of cost and value.
Mark heaved his body erect by sections and
went into the washroom, where he consid-
cred his features disconsolately in the mirror.
1t wasn't. he felt. an outstanding face. A girl
could take it or leave it, apparently. He re-
turned moodily to his chair. Establishing
himself with Sue was going to come high.
He scowled thouehtfully and once more
reached for the phone.

Sue laughed. When did you see your psy-
chiatrist last? You ought to do something
about that fxation Look at me, for instance:
don't have any concealed husbands"
''You actually work for living?"
''I'm a stenographer."
Speaking of cogs."
Just means to an end, though" Sue said
cheerfully. II came to New York because I
thought had voice that radio was waiting
for. But they wouldn't even pay me in break
fast cereals; so did the best could to eat.

looked up at Mark and added, with that imp-
ish impulse common to females, and not un-
related to the devilishness that makes small
boys pull wings off flies, Except that now
may stay to finish my mission of making you
human again"
MARKS startled look pleased the mink in

danced and rested her cheek on his chest.
She felt quiver 60 through the frame of the
man from Vermont, and he missed a step.
This is all business" he said stiffly.
Strictly business. And tomorrow is another
business day. Time you were home. Let's CO."
1t was quite while after she was back in
her two-room apartment before Sue went to
sleep. She stretched her slim body luxuri-
ously on her bed, and wriggled her small toes
in deep content She was like lovely kitten
with mouse. -.
The next afternoon Mr. Howe. her firms
credit manager, called Sue into his office.
He wasn't an unkindly man, and he looked at
her with more curiosity than ire when she
came in. He picked up one of several letters
she'd typed for his signature during the
morning: Miss Rogers, do you know our
client, MIR. Ginzler? Personally, mean?"
mo, Mr.. Howe
"H'mmmm. The name itself maybe appeals
to you, eh2"
What do you mean, Mr.. Hover"
We'll, I'm trying to find out why instead
of addressing him as Dear Mr.. Ginzler' in
accordance with our usual policy - which l
think is friendly enough to people who do not

address him as Dearest Mr.. Ginzler'?"
'Oh no, Mr.. Howell didn't!''
Oh yes, Miss Rogers! You did!'
She blushed scarlet, took the letter from
him without word and started for the door,
He called her back and handed her another
letter: Take care of Dearest MIR. Slotnick
too, Miss Rogers, if you'll be so kind
An incident like that can be quite shock
to girl. and Sue sat in a sort of daze at her
desk, making no effort to retype the letters.
1t was the first time she'd realized that she'd
been thinking almost without interruption
about Mark King 1t gave her feeling of
gelatinous instability A sort of warm, gooey

Budenz Loshes Soviet Deceit

Harrisburg, Pa, Nov 26. (UP)- Russia is using deceit and will con tinue to use deceit in the United Nations" as part of a war of nerves, according to Louis F. Budenz, form CT Communist leader.
 Budenz told a local forum last night that the great war danger is that the Soviet Union will fashion Poland, Bulgaria, Romania and Yugoslavia into a gigantic war machine unfriendly to the United States.
 The peace can be won but only if America asserts her leadership on the side of freedom and justice, no matter who violates it," he said
 Budenz cited Russian policy to- ward Argentina and Germany as examples of Soviet deceit. He said the Spanish question was being used by Russia to divert United Nations attention from the bloody terror going on in Cental Europe.
