The conductor came through
the train and paused beside her
to say pleasantly Fifteen
minutes more, Lieutenant. Bet
it's going to. seem mighty good
to be home again."
She laughed up at him radi-
antly. ...
"It's the one thing I've
longed for for twenty-slx
MONTHS" she told him joyously.
The conductor was middle
aged, and his face was worn
and tired. But now as he looked
down at the girl he seemed
younger and less tired, as
though there was something re-
juvenating in her frank happi-
ness.
'I'n bet your folks are going
to be mighty glad to see you,"
he said kindly.
There was for a moment a
shadow against her happiness.
II haven't any folks she
said. "Just a friend or two -
but they are very dear to me.
My parents have been dead
since I was E little girl"
"Oh, I'm sorry" said the
conductor. His kind eyes took
in the beauty that was ap-
parent despite her thinness and
her obvious WEAKNESS. "But I'll
bet you there'll be a nice young
man waiting on the station plat
form - or did you leave him
somewhere back in the Pa
cific?"
Cathy's color deepened and
she laughed.
"No. he'll be waiting here"
she answered warmly.
''He's a lucky guy" said the
conductor. "You girls did a
mighty fine job, Lieutenant -
a mighty fine job. Nobody in
this country is ever going to
forget it."
''Thank you," said Cathy
simply. "We were glad to do
whatever we could. 1t was a
privilege"
The man nodded in quiet TN
derstanding.
81 guess you felt that. You'd
have to feel something like that
to go through what you did,
he said. II had couple of
nurses with me on this run
some months ago girls who
had been prisoners Of war at
Cabanatuan. They seemed to
feel as you do"
IT was one Of the lucky
ones" Cathy told him.
He nodded and went On his
way. When the train halted at
the Cypressville station, he
came back to carry her bag to
the station platform and shook
hands with her before he swung
hook aboard the train.
For a moment Cathv looked
about her. quick with delight at
+he loved Familiarity of the old,
d'nev station. Nothing had
chaneed: it was al as she re-
embered it. And then her
hoart did nose dive. for there
was no one to meet her.
Where was Bill? She had
wired him the time Of her ar
rival, taking it for granted ne
would be as eager to see her
as she was to see him-yet he
was not here. A few people
peered at her curiously as they
hurried by, but no one spoke.
After all, she'd been gone three
wears, and the war had struck

Twenty Dead In
 Army CAY Crash

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (P)-An army CAY plane burst into flames with flash seen two miles away and crashed into an open hillside near here shortly after dark last night, killing at least 20 persons and pos sibly 21.
 The big craft slashed through small wooded area within two miles of the Memphis municipal airport, and twisted into a sage field, scattering bodies and wreck age over a quarter-mile path.
 Small trees were torn down. In one, a half-open parachute dan gled. Twisted masses of metal hung on other limbs and dotted the ground.
 Col Donald K. Fargo, com manding officer of the 468th air forces base unit, announced the death toll as 20 with possibly an- other body in the wreckage.
 Names of the dead were with held pending notification of rela- tives. An army spokesman said two were believed to be Negroes.
 Fargo said the plane was based at Aberdeen, Md, and had made its last stop at Fl Paso, Texas, yes terday. It was returning from the west coast.
 c. V. White said he saw the plane explode and burst into flames from his home two miles away.
 "It wasn't more than two sec onds before it hit the ground" he said.
 Robert Hall, who lives about two and a half miles from the scene of the crash, said he heard the plane "laboring real loud'' and saw "a flash in the sky"
 Fargo would not speculate on the cause. The ceiling was report ed at 1,700 feet shortly after the crash, which the army said oc- cured at SOS pm.

MISSIONER FIELD, Mass. (P1 The U. s. air transport com mand announced yesterday there were only six survivors of the 29 American military men aboard the huge transport plane that crash ed in Labrador's icy wilderness Tuesday midnight.
 A doctor who landed at the wreckage eight miles north of Goose Bay reported that g were killed in the crash.
 Names of the survivors and dead are being withheld pending re- ceipt of a complete report.

 A space has been cleared within a half mile of the scattered, char red wreckage.
 The huge transport plunged flaming to earth in forested, hilly country that could not be reached by air or ground for nearly "A hours.
 A rugged rescue party travelling overland with dog-sleds reached n Il but first reports of the survivors came only after the landing of a radio-equipped helicopter.
 Stormy weather hampered com munications even though only eight miles separated the scene of the wreck from the Goose Bay air field where the rescue operations are being directed.

Communists Call General Strike In Rome
(By Frank O'Brien)

ROME, (P) - A general strike directed by leftists closed down all but vital public services and railroads in Rome yesterday, but government and labor leaders were reported to have agreed on broad general lines which might end the multiple walkout.
 The chamber of labor, which called the strike in protest against unemployment, estimated 500,00O workers were made idle. It was the first general strike in Rome in a quarter century.
 The government-labor confer ence at the treasury ministry last ed five hours. Later yesterday Giuseppe di Vittorio, secretary of the general Italian confederation of labor, was to report on the meeting to the executive commit tee of the Rome provincial cham Der of labor, which would have to approve any agreement.
 InformantS said an agreement would return strikers in Rome and Rome province to work today, or possibly earlier.
 Many workers reported for duty and stood by hoping the strike would be called off before dark ness. Strong police and military forces were on patrol and at sta tions to prevent disorders.
 The dominantly leftist (mostly Communist chamber of labor of Rome province, which called the strike Wednesday night, said there had been no attempts by workers to violate the strike call and that nothing could end it before mid morning conference yesterday with government representatives at the ministry of labor.

House Includes
 Aid FOrChinaIn In Foreign Aid Bill
tBy Douglas B. Cornell)

WASHINGTON, (P)-The stop gap foreign air program moved into the dickering stage today with a possibility the Senate might okay some help for China if the House would agree to more for Europe.
 Congressional leaders were shooting for a compromise by Monday. Five members from each chamber were assigned to start work on one this morning.
 The Senate passed it's aid bill Dec. l. The House waited until yesterday, then swished its mea- sure throughout without even a nose count.
 The principal idea of both bills is to see to it that France, Italy and Austria get fuel and food this winter. But the House measure differs in major respects from what the administration proposed and the Senate accepted.
 President Truman wanted $597,- 000,000 for the three European countries. The Senate went along. Then the House pared the amount to $590,000,000 and said China should be dealt in for $60, 0,000,000 of the total.
 One clue to a possible line of compromise came from Senator H.. Alexander Smith R.-N. JD, a member of the foreign relations committee. He said the committee had agreed unanimously with sec retsry of state Marshall that some thing should be done for China later, in separate bill, but now:
 "It will be difficult for the Sen ate to knock out the fund for China because any such action would be regarded as slap"

 Terms were not made public of ficially. The Communist neWSpa- per Mlada Fronta said Czechoslo- vakia's trade with the Soviet Union will amount to 16 to Is per cent of this nations total foreign trade next year.
 The newspaper added there would be no obligation upon Czechoslovakia to pay for food or important raw materials in dol lars. It left unanswered the ques- tions of how much Czechoslovakia previously paid or will continue to pay Russia in dollar credits.

Truman Insists Only lO-Point Program Adequate

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman met Republican counter proposals for wage and price leg islation yesterday with the declar- ation that anything less than the administrations 10-point program for curbing living costs will be in- adequate.
 MT. Truman told his news con ference that he will submit to Congress in a couple of days spe- cific legislation covering the wage and price controls which he has requested.
 The President added that he al so expects to submit other propos- als to- cover all the ten points out lined in his first message to the special session.
 In sharp criticism of one fea- ture of the proposed Republican program, MT. Truman said the country's antitrust laws will be enforced to the limit as long as he is President.
 He made this comment on a
