sham in an unreal world of sham
and saw that his midnight blue
suit was too blue and his tails too
long and his studs too large and
saw how he must look to them,
aping their clothes and their arti-

Then, like a mirage, he saw a
dreary rain-swept station plat

him.
He turned his head.
She was standing by herself

She did not look to him as if
she belonged in the Platinum
Room with the Shiny People.
She looked as if she belonged in
a little house in Florida with kids
around her.
He saw the look in her eyes
and through her eyes into her
mind and he knew that she had
cherished a dream - that she
had waited for him.
lMPELLED by a force stronger
than anything he had ever
known. he walked across the
carpet of silence in the room,
stood before her, forgetful now
of the hundreds of staring faces.

Mr.. Hope made his statement to

from the prospects that the Govern

Hodge Admits Korea

HONOLULU, Aug. 30.-Lt. Gen

Gen. Hodge, en- route to Wash

years in Korea and war duty in the

He was informed en- route that his
85-year-old mother, Mrs. Melissa
Hodge, is seriously i'll at Carbondale,

field, Calf, tomorrow in a C-54
that awaited him here.
Gen. Hodge expressed the opinion
that North and South Korea might
eventually be united. 1t depends,
he said. on the success of the new
South Korean government.
Says Russians Helped U. S.
South Koreans, he said, "are
pretty we'll clear of any love for
Communists. They have found for
themselves who they tthe Com
munists) are and for whom they are
working"
The Russians in North Korea, he
continued. helped us a lot" in
strengthening the American posi-
ton. Communist action in cutting
off electric power for South Korea
and in slayings during the United
Nations supervised elections in May
produced great goodwill for Ameri-
cans, he said.
Gen. Hodge said there was evil
dence of growing enthusiasm among
the population in the Russian con-
trolled zone for democratic opera
ton of a provisional government in
South Korea. But he said it would
be wishful thinking to expect that
popular sentiment in North Korea
could achieve union with the South
Korean government under the pres
ent circumstances.
The general observed, however,
there is chance the Russians may
yet agree to a united democratic
Korea.
Russia has demonstrated six po-
litical changes of heart" he said
without further elaboration. Rus
sia might decide to quit pushing so
hard and give a little"
