425,000-MAN NATIONAL GUARD FUTURE ARMY AIM Army plans for a postwar National Guard with initial strength of 425,000 enlisted men were disclosed by House military affairs committee members. The plans were submitted at a secret meeting last week of a subcommittee appointed by Chairman May, Democrat, Kentucky, to draft a new national defense act. While the initial objective of the Guard was set at 425,000 exclusive of officers committee members said the Army hopes eventually to boost the personnel to a total of 750,000.

1,000 FLEE CONGRESS HOTEL FIRES Four fires, possibly touched off by a firebug, broke out in 11 hours Sunday in the historic Congress Hotel on Chicago's Michigan boulevard. In the first fire one man was killed, several other persons injured, and 1,000 guests fled in confusion to the street. The hotel was in an uproar. At mid-afternoon the last fire had been brought under control.

STRICT SECRECY URGED IN TESTS A drive to put a stringent top-secret label on results of the coming atomic tests in the Pacific drew fresh support from Congress. Some members of the House Naval committee said they are dissatisfied with a proviso written by the Navy Department. This leaves it up to the secretaries of War and Navy whether foreign governments should be given any of the data.

Delicious refreshments were

served by the hostesses, Mesdames Walters, Dodds, Patrick and Wan-en.

CLUB OWNER DIES IN FIGHT What police described as .the culmination of night-long drinking ended early Sunday morning in the death of James D. Rees, prominent Indianapolis golf club president and owner, and the arrest of Michael V. McCarthy, 30, of Indianapolis on a charge of murder. McCarthy's wife, Mrs. Marie Goldie McCarthy, 34, said by police to have been with Rees when he was left dying in a pool of blood at 14th and Delaware streets at three o'clock Sunday morning, was charged with vagrancy as a material witness. She was released under $1,000 bond. Detectives said Rees, head of the Willow Brook Golf Club, died after having struck his head against a curbstone at the intersection when he was knocked down by McCarthy during an early-morning brawl. It all happened in a fit of anger, McCarthy, a discharged overseas soldier, told detectives. ' ' -

They emerged from the forest depths after their miraculous escape.

Old Nick had survived, too.

T TTTERLY exhausted, in rags and with their bodies still daubed with red ochre, badge of the Maori untouchables, the Ozannes, William,. Marianne and Veronique, Nat and Tai Haruru, emerged from the forest depths after their miraculous escape from the Maori "pa," and sacri- , fic'ial death. Tai Haruru's "Tapu" ruse had succeeded, and knowing only too well what recapture would mean, he had led them to safety through dense, untraveled ways.' " As they had expected, they found the Settlement completely destroyed. And they found too, that Old Nick, the pai rot, had somehow survived , the Maori raid, , much to Veionique's joy. They continued on to Wellington where they were made comfortable at the Parsonage by. Samuel ' and Susanna Kelly. And while there, recovering from the prdeal, Marianne reached a decision as to their future.

"I've been thinking," she said, one evening after dinner, "about our future. 1 will not take the child into Maori country, again. We will go to South Island and become sheep farmers!" . , William looked up in astonishment. Tai Haruru smiled knowingly and Old Nat grimaced in disapproval. ... . "It's for the child's sake." Marianne played her trump card. "It's for Veronique's sake." And of course, objection ceased.. But there was one discordant note in Marianne's victory Tai Haruru refused, flatly, to go with them. Later that evening, Marianne, desperately unhappy and amazed at her own unhappiness, sought the solitude of the Parsonage porch. Once she had hated Tai Haruru, yet here she was unable to face the thought of life without him.-She had long noted a change in her feelings toward

There came over her a sense of pe,ace. this dynamic man. Ever since, in fact, Veronique's birth, when Tai Haruru had been her doctor. As she sought to analyze her emotions, he suddenly appeared beside her. Quietly he took her into his arms and kissed her and she did not struggle, "You love me, Marianne," he said softly. She leaned against him and there came over her a sense of peace such as she had never before known. "Yes," she whispered, her voice tense. "And yet, though I love you, I am William's. I've always loved him. His love is the only thing I've ever ever wanted. Doa't you believe me when I say that?" . . . "I believe you," he said. And when he withdreV his arms and went away, there fell upon her an awful scbssOI desolation; and pain as though she'd been reft in two. (Continued tomorrow) -

KEEP SAVING USED FATS! Don't fall down on this vital jol now. Even though food fats are point-free, our country's supply of industrial fats is still very low. Every bit of used fat you turn in swells the supply . . . helps make more soap and other peacetime products!

JJJ

HELP PUT MORE SOAPS IN THE STORES! Any drop in your saving of used fats means a further drop in the country's fat supply. Keep turning in your used fats and you'll help prevent worse shortages . . .help put more soaps back in the stores sooner! (You get 4j? for each pound turned in.)
