War does tilings to people. It leaves them tired and tense. It i lends to rob them of their longrange perspective. It removes them from i-ontoct with the traditions of their past. After the guns have stopped firing a psychological demobilisation is as essential as the d< mobilization of the Armed Forces. Having defeated the foreign I enemy, we how seem to have fallen to ttghiiug am . >.h* r An industrial explcMton is Imminent in I He United mates unless common •ease methods arc- t-tupioyed to stop it. We all want postwar prosperity. We all want speedy recon* version and a return to normal life. But we cannot have those things if the country is to be turned into a bedlam. The growing unrest may hold back recovery for many months. That would hurt everybody. Endless and unreasonable enufiict is itoi going to solve the problems which confront the nation. | It is lime to get the chips off our shoulders ami sit down to intelligent conference. Each ( group needs to understand the r things which are bothering the other. Nothing constructive can lie worked out in an atmosphere of heat and violence. Noise ami • uamcM-aiilng cannot TLke the 1 place of sound thinking. i Reconversion requires co-opera- • tion and that la what we do not ' have enough of today. After all 1 the heat has been spent, it will ’ be necessary to talk things over • in the light ui reason. Why can’t we start there instead of end 1 there? We have hi-ard much talk about f International cooperation as the way to enduring world pence. If that formula Is good for settling i the tflsagroenients of nations, It I is eqsaliy g<Mwl in settling InternI ul or domestic issues. If AmeriI cans cannot apply II in denUßff with each other, how can we expect natious to apply it? lb,fore we travel too far down the mad of confusion and bickerIng let us rewmber that the ■slioto future welfare of Ito.WS,of our people Is at stake.

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN THE NEXT afternoon Terry lay oft the smooth green tiles that made a walk around the swimming pool, and contemplated the universe. Ousters of cottony clouds scudded across a vitreous blue sky. The pampas wind rattled she leaves in the gently swaying rov.' of tcualyptua trees that stood shoulder to shoulder against the onslaught. Far away she could hear the uneven chugging of a power mowing machine. Nothing adds up, she thought Life is so contradictory, so stubbornly perverse. A few short weeks ago she had begun an adventure—the adventure at her lifetime. : Everything was clear-cut, mathe- : maticaliy accurate It had all been K’, impersonal, exciting, and then heart had to get in the way. Inwardly she hated herself for her feeling toward Brooks, and yet It was Inert tat to. As inevitable as . that constant wind that roared Its I power across the pampas Could you stop the wind? Not really. But B could build a barrier—like that of trees and shut your feeli Inga off in another direction. Terry Arnold, oho said half aloud, beginning today you're building a barrier that will stand against that heresy. About four that morning Terry bad been awakened suddenly from a d*sp sleep by the sound of automobile tires crunching through the gravel driveway. Then she’d heard a car door open, hoard Brooks' votes, and ths car had driven away.

they must have sounded. She said, ' Oh. no. I wasn’t asleep. Not this time of day. “Down here it Is the time for i sleep—siesta, you know.” Terry nodded. Then words rushed j out before she could slop them. "1 heard you come In this morning, i It was just four.” “Did I make so much noise T” I Brooks smiled. i In that instant Terry hated her- < self for having gotten involved in i such a conversation. “I’m a light sleeper," she said a little helplessly. Inwardly she gave a sigh of relief when ths talk took an abrupt turn. i ”1 had a wonderful trip,’’ Brooks volunteered. “But it seems so good to be horns. Staying In strange hotels, hurrying to catch planes, over- ; eating at banquets. I guess I’m just not used to my new role yet" "I know," Terry said. "It’s a strain. Generally speaking, it’s ths way most North Americans put In their entire lifetime.” "I thought of that several times on the trip,” Brooks said. "And I don't see how they stand it.” ’They don’t,” Terry said, a tittle fiercely. “It's the explanation of the steady increase in heart disease in the United Steles." Brooks’ eyes had taken on a took of vagueness, pondering and distance. A pampas took. “Problems, proMems,” he said. "Wherever you go among the human race they are inescapable.” “Softie of them, at least, you've solved,” Terry said. "Your radio speech proved that I thought it was marvelous.” “Thanks." Brooks lighted a cigaret and let the smoke trail out slowly. "It was a beginning," he Mid. "A little feeble, I’m afraid, but at least a beginning. It’s like what Ocampo, our beloved writer, said about the pampas, When you stand in pampa, there to no middle ground. Every- ’ thing to close at hand, or on the i horizon.’ With our people it's that way, too. We have too many of the 1 very rich and also the very ppor— I there should be more In the middle ' ground.” T gueae that’s pretty universal,” ’ Terry said. i "Yes. in away, of course, but here it’s in the extreme, because of our Inexorable tie to the pampas. • Our diversification to limited. ’ Eighty per cent of our people de- ■ pens on the fruits of the pampw. Argentina Is the pampas! And the i pampas to Argentina!” Suddenly, as though he wanted to wash off the tribulations of his ’ beloved nation in the coolness of • ths pool.
