FCC Is Checking - On Diathermy Sets To Crack Down On Illegal Machines WASHINGTON, UP — The Federal Communications Commission is planning to crack down on Illegal diathermy machines to keep them from interfering with broadcasting stations, police and fire calls and other vital radio services. The FCC said there are “serious potential dangers" in continued use of short-wave medical diathermy equipment that doesn’t

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE SHELLY looked down at the papers in her hand. “Do you care to say in what way you don’t like Dr. Talboy, Mrs. Evans?” “Td not want to say anything to insult you, Mrs. Carr." “Because my name is Carr?" “That's right In this town . . *T understand. But while my married name is Carr, my own name is Shelly Arnold. Couldn’t we talk on that basis?" “No, Mo’m, 1 don’t think so,” said Dorace sharply. “Because you see, all this is tied up to the fact that you are Stephen Carr’s wife. And while he's in uniform, you’re carrying on with the doctor who came to do his work. Though so tar as anyone knows there was no arrangement that Talboy should take over his wife as well as his practice!” Shelly gasped and jumped to her feet. Dorace looked up at her; a cruel smile thinning her lipa “I told you you’d be insulted.” Shelly shivered a little. “But why should you say such a thing to me?” she cried. “You know it’s not true!" “How do I know what’s true about you big-shots 1 1 know what kind of talk there’d be if 1 did any of the things people tell on you and Talboy—and I’ve seen you myself. Bob’s seen you in the office, calling each other by your first names, and all.” On, dear, thought Shelly. Oh, dean “He goes in and out of your house as familiar as anything. I've seen his car parked there many a night. I’ve seen you in that car, too. And then the way he sends you around to tell us women to make our men do what he says at tne plant You tel) me to forget your name is Carr. If it wasn't Jarr you wouldn’t have dared come into our homes this way. But 1 can tell you one thing, you've leaned tod hard on that name. We are decent folks; we don’t have the money the Carrs’ve got, but we’re decent. “ a. She stood up now, leaning over Shelly, and the veins stood out on her neck as she talked. "Bob works for the Carrs, but he earns every dime he makes. And he's not so beholden to them that he—and a lot o’ the other men-—don’t resent a wife carryin’ on with another man while ner husband’s away fightin’ a war—“We don’t like the man who's foulin’ Captain Carr’s nest, and i tor one am not afraid to say so right to your face. You’re rich, and you've had all the breaks tn lite, but J j;ot.something you don’t, Mrs. Carr. I’m honest, and I—” She was still talking when Shelly reached her car, backed it into the rutted new street and drove away. She was both stunned and panicdriven. She wanted to run and run! To drive her car recklessly, wildly —She pulled up, and sat shaking. What was she thinking ot? Had she been guilty, she could not be more resentful of the charges. That weekend Shelly went to the city to see her mother, and to escape any active decision about Her behavior toward, and with, Craig Talboy. Sh? went down about once every aix weeks, usually going on a weekday. But if she went on. Sunday, she could miss a family dinner.

meet its rules. The rules limit both the number of radio Yrequencies that can be used for the heattreating medical equipment and the amouht of radiation they produce. As an example of potential danger, the FCC said diathermy equipment operating outside its assigned frequencies could interfere with flight communications and result in “disastrous airplane accidents.” In case of attack, it said, enemy planes could use signals from "excessively radiating diathermy machines" as a guide to their targets. Court Action Each short-wave diathermy machine is, in effect, a radio transmitter. An illegal machine can cause interference hundreds of miles away, the FCC said.

tine didn’t gam a great deal, be- 1 cause on Tuesday afternoon when ; she came in from the office, Agnes said that Mrs. Carr, Senior, had < phoned. She hoped Miss Shelly would come out and eat supper with her at six-thirty. She’d be alone . . . That was an order; Agnes expected Shelly to obey it As she went toward the stairs, Shelly saw that only two places had been act at the dining room table. She smiled, and went on to bathe and change into a full skirt of quilted yellow chintz worn with a sleeveless black jersey blouse. The weather was cool and pleasant, with a hint of rain. Shelly took her white coat with her, and drove out to the Circle, as always, admiring the neat fields and fences, the restful view across the lake. May Anna greeted her affectionately, and commented on the skirt. “It looks so nice on you, dear! You wear clothes so well.” She went on to ask for Shelly’s mother, and Shelly replied. There was no change. . . . “I’m glad you could come this evening,” said Mrs. Carr’s pillowsoft voice as she led the way to the dining room. “Papa’s at a Chamber of Commerce meeting. And we had fresh lobsters for Sunday; there was enough left over to make a nice salad.” They ate at one end of the long mahogany table; the meal was perfectly served on place mats of exquisite lace. May Anna's talk darted like a humming-bird from the latest cleverness of Carr Maupin to Kate's decision never to take a negative position with her children, thence to the price of fresh tomatoes in the stores, and a brief description of the Shepherd cocktail party at the club. This led directly to the subject in hand at the precise minute when she and Shelly were ready to move to the small sitting room. "Oh, dear," mourned May Anna as they went through the wide hall. "It’s beginning to rain. Are your car windows closed ?” “They will be," smiled Shelly. "Don’t such things get done automatically out here?” This pleased May Anna. “Take that chair, dear. How is your new cook working out?” “Agnes is a jewel.” “I'm so glad. Lucie Walsh said she worked for her once, extra, of course, and that she was honest. Eleanor did Iqok lovely at the Shepherd party.” "Doesn’t she always look lovely ? Was she always ao immaculate? 1 mean, as a child?” "Yes, she was. I don’t think Eleanor has given her parents one minute of worry—except perhaps that she hasn't married. But, that, of course—” Shelly was \ expected to understand May Anna's rueful shrug. She did understand it. Shelly txad stepped tn to spoil things between Stephen and Eleanor— Firmly, she held on to her serenity, listening to the whisper of rain against the trees. May Anna shifted a little in her armchair. "I’m glad you do admire Eleanor, ’’ she said sweetly. “I think she makes a perfect example of what a well-bred young woman should be." oth tKou g h t Shelly. She would not get angry, whatever was

Some have disrupted police and fire department radio communications and interfered with reception of radio and TV stations, the commission said. To minimize interference, the FCC issued a regulation that all short-wave diathermy equipment must be of a type approted by the commission or must have an engineer's certificate that it meets FCC rules. The regulation took effect last June, after six years' notice, so doctors, hospitals and other users of diathermy equipment would have time to get approved machines. The FCC said a “considerable number’’ of unapproved machines are still in use, but most of their operators are not aware they are violating the law. The commission

said! She'd be careful about that! She had learned from Craig, from his infallible courtesy, that one lost ground the minute emotion was allowed to show itself. •T’ve never heard one word of adverse criticism spoken about Eleanor," Mrs. Carr was saying. She rolled a white bead bracelet up her forearm, slid it back to her wrist. “That is quite an achievement in a town of this Oort.” Now the faded blue eyes darted a glance at Shelly. “It’s quite an achievement anywhere,” Shelly answered pleasantly. ’• “Yes, but in a city where one may become lost in a crowd, one may risk—shall we say?—the appearance of indiscretion.” Shelly swallowed a brown, sickish taste in her throat *1 understand completely, my dear,” the little velvet-tipped hammers pounded on her nerves, “the difficulty of a girl like you coming here to live. Especially without Stephen here to advise and guide you.’ That’s why I—" She coughed daintily, and continued. “You grew up tn a city. Shelly. There you lived what we would call a gay life," Her worcfchurried a little as if to prevent interruption. “In St Louis, entertaining is done in hotels and at the big clubs. Your circle of friends is constantly changing. You don’t see your friends so often, and they don’t see you . . .” (You know nothing about my St. Louis, thought Shelly resentfully. Its inner core, its inner circle. Just as you know nothing of me. You’ve never known me enough even to ask—and you couldn’t ever know about my city! Hot'els, indeed! Why—) She sighed, and listened again to what Stephen’s mother was saying. Maybe she’d get a chance to say there was no difference—really— “. . . but here our standards are simple and strict. Shelly. Here we know the same people all our lives, and they know us. The least thing we do is significant here in Norfolk." Her mother-in-law’s tone was one of gentle patience. Just so she might have explained to ner little granddaughter that nice little girls did not get their slippen muddy. “We’re very proud of our town,” she said to Shelly. “We like to think it is a small, select community of people who have set themselves a very high standard of behavior. That sometimes is called snobbishness. It isn’t really.* We just want Norfolk to seem better than other places because it «s better. Do you understand, Shelly 7 “I think so." “Well, I wasn’t sure." “Have 1 done something that doesn’t come up to your standards?" She spoke in a voice as soft as the brush of silk , . , "Oh, Tm sure you’ve not!” said May Anna quickly. She laughed in a tinkly social manner, and Shelly pushed her slipper soles hard against the floor to brace herself. “It isn’t always necessary to do much of anything,’’ May Anna continued to instruct her. “But it’s really much, better, don’t you think, to avoid the appearance of doing □tHneuxtiig .
