In 1927 McHale was elected Indiana commander of the American Legion without any opposition and the same year managed McNutt's campaign for national president of the Legion, which was successful. In 1932 McHale managed McNutt’s campaigns for the Democratic nomination and election as i governor of Indiana, and from 1833 j to 1937 he directed McNutt s vast legislative reform program through the general assembly. To a lesser extent McHale also advised Governor Townsend in directing his program through the 1937 legislature, and has been one of Townsend's advisors for the past year.

pw HER WINGS "‘y

CHAPTER XXVI Julie wrapped herself in the turkish toweling robe that had been placed on the bath-chair and opened the door.-The maid was gone. And so were all of Julie’s clothes except the white silk pique tennis dress which had been miraculously pressed and was left hanging on a hook on the outside of the bathroom door. Her high-heeled brown and white opera pumps were placed beside the slipper chair. Fresh lingerie and stockings were neatly piled on the chair. They said eloquently, “You are expected to wear us." She would have preferred to make an entrance in her white satin evening dress but she was prepared to do as the Romans. Ivory skin against flat white silk. Burnished gold against ivory. She didn’t need any jewels. She was twenty and nearly poverty-stricken but she looked sixteen and felt like an heiress when at last she opened the door and went downstairs. It was eight o’clock, and indoors she saw only a butler arranging silver on a sideboard in the diningroom. The others were out-of-doors. She followed voices to a side porch, a terrace that led to one of the gardens. She saw that there wtre about ten persons there. Girls in casual clothes like hers, men in flannels wearing striped basque shirts. Saw Paul. Mostly saw Paul. “Hello!" she said experimentally with a glance that was meant to include all of them. She felt self-con-scious. Stanley Lombard appeared at her . side, “Julie . . . don’t try to remem-! ber their names. We’ll have a go at it for politeness sake. . . . Keats Desmond —he’s the one who has been barking like a seal for a fish since he heard we had captured a beauty for the week-end”—Julie smiled at the homely, tall man who did indeed look delighted that she was there. “And the loving pair fighting over a golf score are Isobel and Carl Winters ’■ 'ihe Winters looked up and said, “Hello,” Julie inclined her head. Then there were people named Toddy and Joan Something and two Smiths. “And Paul whom you know,” Stanley concluded. Paul said, “Give the girl a cocktail at onee!” To him, Julie said, “I’m glad you’re here.” “I’m here only because I heard you were coming out." Everything was perfect then. Nancy came down late. “Was everything all right?" she asked Julie. “Perfect,” Julie answered. “It’s exactly the way I pictured it! I’m already having a wonderful time!" “Good!” Nancy replied cordially. “We like having you.” Julie sat between Stanley and Keats at dinner. After dinner, Carl Winters took her for a tour of the garden. When they got back the man named Toddy Something demanded a game of backgammon with her. She wanted to talk to Paul but she played backgammon. Then it was midnight and someone said something about going over to the Sandown club for the tennis matches at ten in the morning and wasn’t it a good idea to go to bed at a reasonable hour? Nancy asked her if she’d like to go with them or did she prefer to sleep. Keats said that she couldn’t sleep, he’d planned to take her for a ride in his speedboat. One of the Smiths jaid he’d hoped she’d go round the golf course with him. She was a success, Julie decided thankfully and said she’d like to do all of those things. Couldn’t she go to the tennis matches and do the other things in the afternoon? While she eet in the stand and

SEEKS (CONTINUED EKOM PAGE HNWI an dull other phases of American I life. . His objective, he said, was to try and view the situation from a national point of view. In this endeavor. he said, great progress is, being made. He emphasized that in the at- ! tempt to bring business and others I to better understanding, an effort is being made to arrive at methods which do not involve legislation. He said he was seeking to bring different groups together to exchange information among themselves. He described as helpful the fact that John L. Lewis, CTO leader, for example, could sit down with jOwen D. Young. General Electric chairman, and Thomas Lamont. Morgan partner, in a broad discusl sion of business conditions. Mr. Roosevelt said it was his opinion that business men were ‘ getting a view of the situation i that they had not had before, par- | ttcularly as to the mechanics of the federal government. MoreI over, he said, they have had an I opportunity to discuss credit facilt- ' ties and investment facilities and

watched the fast tennis, she wished that she were there alone with Paul who sat four seats away from her. Hank Smith shot his ball into a clump of bushes and she followed at i his heels wishing that it was Paul ; with whom she could be alone in all that lovely sunlit green and blue. Later, at the whee 1 of Keat’s speedboat she thought* the same thing and wondered dolefully if she would ever be alone with Paul. She was. If you could call being alone dancing twice with a man at a golf club at three or four o’clock in the morning. She felt like crying when she went to the dressing-room to get her wrap. She’d spent a whole day and two evenings under the same roof with him and he’d treated her just like all the others. She had only one more day. And after that, Fayette. Only halt a day, she discovered on Sunday. It was only the men who rose early to play a foursome at a neighboring golf club. At two o’clock the girls drove over to the club for lunch and already the day was fading for her. About four they decided to swim and Julie found herself alone on a raft with Paul. They dangled their toes in the water and leaned back on the palms of their hands. «“Having a good time?" Paul asked lazily. Julie nodded her head. “As good as you had earlier in the week?” Julie said no and Paul leaned toward her. “Mean it?" She nodded again. “I’ll be darned if I knew it! I thought you’d gone hook, line and sinker for Desmond.” “You shouldn’t have thought that,” she said speaking low. He picked up her hand and turned back her fingers one by one. “Look here, you can't go back to Fayette right away.” “Oh, yes, I must!” “But why? It’s pleasant here, isn’t it?” “Very! Only . . . well, Paul, I’m really a stranger here you know. I think it was sweet of Nancy to ask me for these few “No one is ever asked for ‘a few days’. You come and leave when you are ready. Stay!” She shook her head. “I’m funny that way, Paul. * I’ve got old-fash-ioned ideas about the necessity for invitations. Are you staying on here?” She had a swift thought that she might stay on in New York, i Only she didn’t want Paul to see her ! at the Y.W.C.A. There was nothing . luxurious about her home in Fayette but shabby gentility in a professor’s I house denoted some kind of social background that the Y. did not. She . decided she wouldn’t stay there if Paul did ask her to remain in New | York. [ “Sure, I’m staying here. Nancy’s > sister is occupying my place and so I > have privileges here.” She waited, half expecting that i he would say he could invite her to > remain. He didn’t say anything then, but 5 quite casually after dinner that i night, Nancy said, “Julie, you don’t 9 have to rush off or anything, do 1 you?” t “Why...” Julie hesitated. “We’d like to keep you here for a 3 while if you’ll stay. You can help 3 me entertain Hank and Paul and t Keats.” i Julie allowed a few minutes to e think it over as was proper for such a an unexpected invitation. Then she said, “I’d really like to but I haven’t 1 any clothes.” 3 “Oh, that’s simple enough! I have 3 to take Susan to the dentist tomore row. We can shop then and pick up whatever you need.” 1 That night Julie counted her

• to wipe away certain false impresi slops. ' In this connection, he noted thut there had been confusion over the acreage curtailment program. Some people, he said, felt that he ' was inconsistent in urging on the one hand that certain acreage be I improved and other acreage be I abandoned. To set them right he ,! outlined what is being done to prevent sidl erosion and pointed out . that the two programs were not Inconsistent. Regarding prices, the president pointed to an editorial that took him to task for having urged in 1933 that the price level be raised and then in 1937 declaring that it was too high. Mr. Roosevelt declared the editorial misunderstood his attitude He asserted that his objective was the same as in 1933 —that is. to bring the price level back to the level of 1926. What he objects to, he said, is rises in commodity prices that threw the general price structure out of balance. He recalled that as early as last April he held up the swiftly advancing copper prices as an example. Those prices, he said, were out of line on the upside just as during the depression they I were out of line on the downside. ! He said some of his conferees ■ lacked information on the crop j control bill and expressed surprise d when they were informed it had ■

treasure carefully ana wondered why she was such a little fool. Not that she had any intention of being anything else. Nevertheless, the cost of her fun was uncomfortably high. There were three letters on Julie’s breakfast tray Monday morning. They had been forwarded to her by Miss Higgonbohm. She slit them eagerly, hungry for news of Fayette. The first one she read was from Althea. It was more likely to contain news than either of the other two from Dick and Priscilla. Althea’s letter rambled. The Brook’s barn had burned town. The Keltons had a new car and a boarder. Percy Hincks wasn't going to teach at Ramsey next term. She’d seen Pete Waddell. He was rushing Dorcas Holt and had a job in Texas, , flying the private plane of an oil millionaire. He was leaving in three or four weeks and Althea thought Dorcas had a crush on him. He told her that Rita Cartright was in Europe. Julie knit her brows thoughtfully when she read the passage about Pete's going away. Pete couldn’t go away until he’d taught her to fly I Only last night Stanley Lombard had talked to her again about the flying tour and visions of wealth danced before her eyes. She couldn’t let it get away from her. Twentyfive hundred dollars looked bigger to her than the war debts when she thought of what she could do with it. It must have, else she would not have considered the further torture of flying lessons. She had no intention of taking her life in her hands and what else would it be if she didn’t continue her course with Pete? If he were leaving in three or four weeks, she would have little enough time.... But if she went back now, sbe would have to leave Paul, be unable to continue this enchanted holiday. If she stayed on for another week or ten days, that would ieave nearly three weeks and she could pay Pete a little more money to give her a lesson a day. Happily she felt she had found the solution. A little more money.... She had but little. She had considerably less when that day’s shopping trip was over. Driving into New York, Nancy said she’d be glad to take Julie to some of her favorite shops where she could ‘pick up some little things.” Hastily, Julie had said she didn’t want her to bother. She’d shop and meet Nancy at tea-time. She had a right idea that Nancy’s little things cost far more than she could afford. Fifty dollars should cover her list of necessities, she thought. She’d buy a couple of linen dresses, a cotton evening dress and perhaps one more sweater. Oh, yes, fifty dollars would be ample. But when she bought the black organdie dress, she had to have colored sandals. The linens cost as much as silk and she had to have a sports pocketbook and white cotton gloves at two dollars a pair. Then she saw a chintz print that she was unable to resist because the purple and reds were dramatic and called i for a huge cartwheel hat of deep, deep purple. Purple gloves and bag to match cost as much as the sweater she had planned to buy. But she did need another sweater to wear with the bright pink tweed skirt. If she were going to play golf every day, she couldn’t wear the same thing. She bought a white cardigan to wear over her tailored blouse. By that time, she had stopped fig. uring how much she could afford. Later ... (To be continued) Copyright by Marl* BUzard Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Jae.

AL D. SCHMITT says: Modesty should forbid mentioning that Ai D. Schmitt Motor Sales has received a prize from the Ford Motor Company —for having sold, over a period of time, more dollars’ worth of used cars than any other Ford dealer,of its size in the Indianapolis branch territory. But more important than the prize, I think, is the reason for the record which won it. I suspect the more personal basis on which I sell cars both new and used — the from-me-to-you relationship — even with ! comparative strangers, had something to to with it. And the fact that I consider aftersales as important as before-the-sale trade-in value.probably had something to do with it too.
