What about increased health facilities and federal aid to education, which Taft also favors? Or a rise in minimum wage standards, which Mr. Truman mentions from time to time! If these are ignored, the suspicion will be difficult to overcome that the Republicans, and their allies among the southern conservatives, never had serious intention of pushing such legislation.

This Morning's Headlines PRESIDENT TRUMAN, back from a reunion with World War I buddies, has given no hint of what he intends to do about the two controversial bills that are on his desk awaiting his action. The bills are the labor bill and the tax reduction bill. It appeared unlikely that Mr. Truman would act oit" either measure before his return from a three-day official visit to Canada, which he sUirts tomorrow night. He is to address the Canadian Parliament on Wednesday.

REPRESENTATIVE HALLECK of Indjana has urged that President Truman prove his "co-operation"' by signing both bills. The Indiana Republican said that the President should sign them to "keep his pledge to co-operate," Halicck went on to say, "The Republican Congress has been doing its part toward enacting into law legislation that we believe the people want. It remains to be i seen whether President Truman will go along."
THE HOUSE FOREIGN affairs committee has called up for action a resolution that 'will, demand that Russia keep its wartime pledges and insist on a "firm American policy." The resolution has laid dormant since Representative Colmer, D., Miss., introduced it earlier. However, on the heels of the Communist coup in Hungary, committee members announced to reporters that it had been set for public hearings.

THE FIRST ELECTION that hinged on a choice of Mr. Truman's foreign policy, or the policy followed by Henry Wallace, resulted in a victory for the facts as seen by the President. In Olmypia, Wash., a Republican newspaper publiyher who upheld the Truman doctrine, defeated a "progressive Democrat" backed by Wallace in the battle for a seat in the House. The Republican had a margin of slightly more than 1,500 votes. - PRIME MINISTER TITO of Yugoslavia, and Premier Petru Groza, of Romania, have agreed on the necessity for "deeper co-operation" between their two countries, it was reported. This agree ment was voiced yesterday during a luncheon at which the Yugoslav minister welcomed the Romanian premicr-and his entourage cf four cabinet ministers making a three day "visit of friendship" to Belgrade.

"Open up," Jerome cried. "I'm Mr. Lindsey." JEROME LINDSEY began beating upon the great arched door with his fists. He shouted and cursed, the while Charlie, from the shelter of one of Jerome's large pockets,
i set up a thin and furious barking. Jim, his manservant, ! stood back a pace and dropped the bags into the snow. I Both men were numb with cold and exhaustion after their
long ride, in an open farm wagon, from the Riverivnd station, and their climb up through the drifts to Hilltop. A light twinkled behind the little, window in the door. The door opened cautiously and a young woman's face appeared, frightened and wary. Jerome raised iiis voice above the gale: "Open up! I'm Mr. Lindsey. Open up, I say!".He pushed the doer rudely and brushed by the servant girl and strode toward the fireplace at the end of the great hall where the logs glowed invitingly. "Where is Mr.
His face softened. "That s my mother," he said. . Lindsey, my father?" he demanded; The girl fled silently. Jerome glanced about him with open satisfaction: "Always the same. It never changes. God, I'm glad to be here!" The thought struck him as odd, for it was something new. For most of his thirty-four years he had sought any excuse to get away, particularly from the confines of this little up-state New York town. His face softened as h looked up at the portrait of a young and pretty woman who was smiling down from over the fireplace. "That's my mother, Jim," he said turning toward the little man. Jim moved closer and looked up at the portrait courteously. 1 . . A door to the right. .opened and Jerome, wearing his charming smile, turned to it, thinking to greet h:5 father. But a young woman stepped into the hall. She stopped. "Yes?" she murmured. Then, "Oh, you must be Jerome.

"I hope you like what you see," Amalie said. We expected you tomorrow. I'm Amalie Maxwell." " ;. Jerome bowed ironically. He stared at her full and derisively. So, this is the woman of whom his sister Dorothea wrote. This is the upstart who would become mistress of f Hilltop. We'll see, he thought. Excerpts from Dorothea's letter, which had dragged him from his comfortable New ',. York City apartment, flashed through his mind. "She will be Cousin Alfred's wife, the mother of his children, who ' will then inherit the bank . . . You have long assured Papa that you wanted no active part in the bank, that nothing would induce you to live in Riyersend . . . But I beg of you (. to think of this woman,' and her heirs; as inheritors of the : bank founded so long ago by Great-grandpapa ..." "I hope you like what you see Jerome," Amalie said tartly.
