"I’m Darey Sheila nt International Press. We’ve heard that i • eouple of the legislators gut into a fight over you last night.” "How interesting!’’ she said. “Is it true? Wo heard it was Senator Murray and Assemblyman Olmstead.” "Imagine that!" she raid, picked up the letters on her desk, and started to look through them. "I guess you're not going to toll me anything—” "You guessed right." "Perhaps you didn’t understand me when I said 1 represent the press—” "Oh, yes, I heard you," Gale said, and started to siit open the envelopes. “And you won’t make a statement?" "No, I won’t make a statement” “We!!, then, you would let us take your picture, wouldn't you?” Gale looked at him as he stood near her, "Perhaps it's your job,” she said, "but I don't want to have my picture taken.” He started to go, and then pauaed. “You won’t tell any of the other newspaper men anything, will you?" "No. Goodby!” Gale hadn’t finished opening the mail when two other news men came in. They opened with a simultaneous, “Now we understand—" ” —that there was a fight over me. I've heard that story, too. Interesting if true, gentlemen." Gale smiled her sweetest. “Unfortunately, I can't confirm it for you.” “Wil! you deny it then?” "What, and let you print that 'Miss Holoway denied today that there was a fight over her’? Don’t you think I have some pride? Most every woman would like to have men fight over her, and that is not a statement for publication, either." "Can we say,” one of them said, “that you refuse to confirm or deny?" “Listen to me, please," she said. "I’m just a senator's stenographer trying to get along, and a story like this one wouldn’t do me any rod. 1 don't want notoriety, but can’t avoid it if you print the story. However, I’ll have to leave that to your conscience." i “Okeh, Miss Holoway. Thanks,” i they said. And as they went out a cameraman came in. But Gale talked him i out of his picture, although he argued she'd make a lovely subject, i Then she telephoned "Boss" Col- > burn. He eould do so many things, perhaps he could somehow head off this story. Colburn's secretary said he was i in conference, but that if it was urgent, Gale could come over and see him fur a few minutes. So Gale donned her hat and went over to the Hotel Senator. Colburn took her Into a bedroom, which had been made over intu an office. "I'vo been run ragged by newspaper men," she said, ’’and I thought you might be able to head off the story.” "Maybe you’ll learn a lesson—" “I’ve already learned it.” He patted her shoulder. "I don't blame you too much, Gale. And if it will ease your mind any, I've approached the papers indirectly, but they're a touchy crowd and I ean’t tell what they’ll do about it. How ever, I’m glad you came over; I’ve learned something you ought to know.” Colburn went to the door and asked his secretary^to bring him the report that had come in that morning. She handed it to him and he closed the door. AHhounh the bnrkgmund for thi» storu it authentic, the ttory ittell it entirely Hctional and the eharnctrrt are imaginary.

The noon edition cf tho papers didn't have any story nt th* fight, but newsmen were in and out all day, wanting to talk to Senator Murray. When ho came In, she looked hie face over carefully and eould detect only a slight bluishnesa about his jaw. She told him about the newspapers and suggested that he hnve them all up at once, that he sit with his good side toward the window, throwing a shadow on the bruised side. He approved her Idea so she called the press rooms and in a minute reporters arrived in a group to ask questions. "Gentlemen," Murray began, “if you don't mind. I’ll make a short statement and then you can ask any questions you wish. My secretary has informed me of your earlievisit and its purpose.” “Okeh, Senator,” one of the group said, “shoot the works.” "There was a disturbance lart night in tho apartment building where 1 live. As a matter of fact, I believe a couple of the boys had a little too much to drink am* there was some sort of altercation. ’ I heard the noise and went into the hall to investigate. Just at that mo. ment, Miss Holoway, my secretary here, and Assemblyman Olmstesd appeared. A nosey neighbor looked out and seeing the three of us, 1 suppose, naturally took it into his head to make up this fantastic story. That is all there is to it.” The Senator reached Into his , desk, pulled out a box of cigars and passed them around. Then he pulled out a quart of whisky and some pamt cups. ”llt-lp yourselves, boys," , he said, “and if there are any questions, I’ll be glad to answer them." Some of the group poured themselves drinks and one asked: "Then. ; Senator, you and Olmstead didn’t fight?” "My dear fellow,” Murray said, 1 "Tommy Olmstead and I are the , best of friends.” Another asked: “Do you mind il we nsk Miss Holoway a question?* "Not if she doesn’t,” Murrsj said, and glanced back over hi< shoulder at Gale. She had stoed there to keep any of the press from getting too close to the injured jaw. "I don’t mind," she said. “Are you and Assemblyman Olmstead good friends?" "Naturally.” "Did you know he was married?” "Yes." “And still you went out wit'., him?” Gale’s temper was rising but she renumbered the caution of Colburn, so she hedged. “I'm afraid you misunderstand. He merely brought me home." "Oh, I see. I apologize." They thanked the Senator and Gale, and filed out. Gale breathei a sigh and the Senator helped himself to a drink. "My dear,” he said "you handled it just right. I thini that will be the last of that.” But just to be sure. Gale phoned Tommy Olmstead ar.d told him what had happened. It was fortunate she did as the newsmen visited him next and ho verified the story. (To be continued) eavnlski. ••<*. Hhoi l%siiMiua<. tM. I t ouuMwe w sms swuxu sn««M us

Hitler la facing "a catastrophe”,' he said, and tb« Germans may cratk under the strain within a year or even within sig months, whereas the Russians sre stronger now and In a heller strategic position than when they fought military forces of many countries 21 years ago. The position of the Red army-— already receiving American and liiltlah supplies under a II MO.iHm.iam loan arranged by President Roosevelt appeared to be esert- 1 Ing an Increasingly Important tnfluence on the threat of war In < the far eaat. Japanese premier Gen. Hidehi Tojo was understood to have sent a personal message to President Roosevelt saying. In effect, that a settlement of tension In the Pa rifle must be reached quickly or Japan will be forced to "use other means” to break the British and American economic blockade. Presumably the Tojo message was couched In language that avoided any threats or ultimatum, such as have been repeatedly made by the Japanese press.
