Z From Jjlay until that autumn there n'nS a great scurrying to Z pass, appropriations, to let con- tracts, to draw plans; every Z thing .was on paper. It had to m be so. ' Z From last autumn throug'ii " this spring and summer, there m wus a period of "tooling ui" 5 of providing the specialized tools 2 necessary before production could Z bt-'.jin. of building factories from the ground up. 2 Now at last we enter a ihil-J JJ' phnse when production in of a eitlvc volume Is beginning to Z roll. Now wo begin ' to get the n slutf, and from now on the Z stream of that production must continue to rise In heightening 2 crescendo until the world comes .ig.iln, as It will some day, to police. Z Watch the needle flicker across the face of the arms pro Z ductlon gauge! Now It roads "More than 1500 . new-model rifles . and sub pa Z chine guns are coming off' the m production lines every day." ; Z Now "The thousandth Hudson a bomber is already on Its way to Z England." Now "Shells will begin to roll Z off the production lino -of the army's $20,000,000 munitions Z plant at Milan, Tenn., on August J 10. Six months ago- this plant m was a hay field." Z Now "Every naval ship under construction Is far ahead of Z schedule." Now "Three tank plants arc Z simultaneously getting Into ac- tunl production on medium tanks, Z the type the army has needed " most urgently, since light tanks m are already In tin ntlly produc- (Ion, and are good enough to have been most helpful to the Z ilrillsh In Libya." Each ot these Is only a small Z flick Ot ,the needle, hut together o they Show how the defense ef Z fort Is. entering the productive stage. It has been a weary strain lu wait month after 2 month, plugging ever harder at Ihe Job, with so little apparent 2 rosidt. Now the results begin to - come. I Z With, actual 'tangible guns, - tanks; ami pla'nes In sight, It ! should be easier to redouble the -" effort that will keep them com- Z i"g In an Increasing stream. In - that lies the best hope for the American future. War Casualties in the U. S. Z MOIIODY doubts any longer Z that the United Slates is tie- incndously arretted by the war Z In Europe. It now has begun - to touch every phase of dally 1 lire.' 2 fill would you think it was actually causing traffic deaths? 2 Col. John V. Uosworlh, stale po ll lice superintendent of West Vlr- ginia, says It is. Highway acci dents actually increase in West .Virginia with Hitler's move- incuts, llosworth says, and war- fare In Euroe Is spilling he lives of American lhouian(is of miles away from it. People feel uncertain and insecure, he thinks, I and thus they grow careless and reckless. I It seems far-fetched, but there might be something to It, at that. It Is surely tine that the long J months of uncertainly wear i some people's nerves thin. Try ' lug to pass that car ahead on a rising curve, however, will do ' Hitler no harm .whatever; much , more is accomplished by staying behind, arriving two minutes later, and being on the job the next morning Instead of on a slub. . . . .' ''.!. Tuning In on Termites . ' , ME Oon't think we've ever been unduly friendly toward termites, especially the fifth col umn kind. But after all, there was this to be said for termites: They were the last stand of privacy In a goldfish-globe world, Tor- mites worked silently and pri vately; nobody ever bothered a termite, for the simple reason that nobody ever know they were there until It was too late. They were able to enjoy their frugal repast of door-sill salad unmolested. Now a super-microphone has been Invented which makes the mlnlsculc munchings of the ter mites sound loundcr than a man eating celery In a railway station restaurant. The termite's loss will be man's gain, but It is dis concerting to think that no liv ing creature is any longer safe j from the keen ear of the micro phonethat even the termites have been tuned in. Editorials on News (ConUnuod from paf 1.) Jt would have been better to face the truth from the begin ning. A LL lhat, of course, is water " under the bridge. It is true, as the president says today, that 11 we are to have an effective army we must keep men In train ing more than one year. Every lesson of the war In Eu- hope proves that point clearly. THE Germans- assure us today, as they have been assuring us for weeks, that they are a set to win the Russian war In a big way.. Maybe they are. l no Jtusslans assert they are holding the nazls. It Is beginning lo look as If the Russians ARE holding more stubbornly than Hitler expected. THERE are persistent Russian reports of guerrilla fighting behind the German lines. These reports tell of marauding Rus sian bands that cut enemy com munications,, waylay troop col umns and raid supply depots. Russia is a big place, with a lot of room for such activities. VOU'VE read, doubtless, of the "V for victory" movement ih the conquered countries of Eu rope. It is an UNDERGROUND movement. In the darkness of the night, the. letter "V" Is chalked on buildings In Belgium, Holland, Czecho slovakia, etc. The Morse code signal for the letter "V" is lapped out In Innumerable ways so that the Germans can hear but can't tell who is doing It. Sometimes this Morse code sig nal bre.tks in as Interference into German broadcasts. And so on. It Is H war of nerves carried on by the conquered peoples and designed lo show the Germans the depths or hatred that are simmering in the conquered lands. INTERESTING evidence has Just appeared lhat Ibis under ground campaign Is gelling onto German nerves. The modern German word for victory Is "sieg." Hut the na.i propagandists have revived the obsolete word "vlkloria," and ate now pulling out a campaign to Ihe erfeet that "V" stands for GERMAN victory. That Is fairly dependable proof that they are worried. THE British are retorting ral It er cleverly that since the Genua ns themselves a p p rove chalking up "V" signs, nobody needs lo rear any longer to Join Ihe campaign. THERE Is ample historical evi dence lhat In all slaw-hold-lug countries the MASTERS have been subjected to constant worry over Ihe terrible tilings that would happen If the SLAVES SHOULD RISE. Germany has this same worry. Defense Units, Building Trades O. K. Peace Pact WASHINGTON, .Inly 21.

II was narrow, and winding, and sc required 10 minutes at the best possible speed. He was sobbing in a sort of restrained hysteria. Neither he nor the man with him could speak. Bob hod black vision: of his village completely buried oi at least laid In death and ruin Specifically, he suffered in seeing Carolyn Tyler dead a thousand ways. He swerved around the last curve, then, and Instantly identi fied Carolyn herself. He yelled at her. "CAROLYN! . . . CAROLYN!" It was a wild, frenzied cry which slipped into infinite gladness when he saw that she was actually running. a 'J'HE village seemed intact, and other folk were stirring now, but he recognized Carolyn from afar partly because he so desper ately wanted to and partly because ho couldn't mistake the bright rec shirt she sttll wore, the same ont she had worn during the ride. That shirt had intrigued him foi two hours this afternoon. It had been a gay challenge to Learn Sormi's severe black-and-white riding habit. It had been prccisclj the right complement for Caro lyn's flaxen curls. It had topped just-right her dark blue, form fitting Jodhpurs, to emphasize hei as the slender, lovely girl she was He stopped his car when he hac to, jumped out and started run ning. There was no outpouring o: words between them. All at once he was holding her Jusl clasping her tight, feeling hci try and trembling powerfully wit! her in sheer intensity of emotions It was she who murmured first "Bob! . . . Bob!"

He kissed the to. of her forehead, still squeezing hei close. He shut his eyes tightly There was a strange, sad, and yet sweet ecstacy between them. a a rpHERE was no chance to relax for almost 24 hours, But late on that second day, amid the stir ring and the milling and the ex citement of peoples arriving and going through all the Inevitable, II kindly hullabaloo, Bob said that the time had come to take Carolyn away lest she drop in her tracks. Her mother had already been sen! to Blair, along with most of the remaining personnel here In the mountain village. Officials from the Arizona county seat, 100 miles away, had come to take charge. First thing Bob did was to make Carolyn eat. She had lived only on a sandwich and a few cups of cof fee forced on her since yesterday. "You must eat also," she re minded him, there in the tiny Blah Inn. "Gee, Bob, we do get into the awfullest things!" The meal was a life saver. In both it restored strength, energy, hope. "Mind if we don't go back to night?" he asked wanly, after the twilight meal. "Let's just ride out alone, where we can think." They didn't have to go far. Only a mile or so to escape the flood of newspaper men, photographers, officers, curious folk who had poured in. They left Bob's car and sat on a flat red boulder near the road. " Stars had begun their timeless winking. Later there would even be a moon, but already the world was beautiful with the soft, eva nescent something that is early night. Presently they found themselves talking. Quietly, intimately, dis passionately going over the whole thing, recounting all the weeks since she had first come to work for him, re-living the horror of the explosion itself but in a new feel ing of deep gratitude for escape "I waited for you, Bob, at tht guard shack, when the guards tolc me you had not come by," she repeated for perhaps the tenth time. "I just did! But when if happened, I was afraid you had gone In! The granite cliff saved us even there, but I couldn't know about you," He held her very close. "You waited. For me! It seems lo me that I have wailed for you since time began, Carolyn! Waited and hungered for you. I was so madly in love with you when you dropped from the airplane that if 11 -28-OZ.

"I tried dutifully to force myself on Leans. Thinking, and fearing, she and I might might Remember, I even, appealed to you!" "I remember," Carolyn whis pered. "It is tragic, even so, to know her guilty of this. I had no idea she felt so deeply in a personal way! But Carolyn, may we not promise never to mention that as pect of it again? Anything that would cause unhopplness to linger in you!" "Of course, Bob. Oh Bob, please hold me very close, and. kiss me again!" . - . a . .... THEY talked for more than BJ A hour, quietly, tenderly. It was the best solace they could have arranged. He grew, if possible, more dear to he than ever, more grand. -v.. ... - It was he who suggested giving Ken Palmer a far better Jo in the Schoenfeld Laboratory back home. It was he who swore then to tell the secret of deriving X-999 to a dozen other picked American sci entists, who could form a corporal tion for developing it in the Mfe est, sanest way -, , ' '.' - It was he who, finally, said, "I think I have earned a rest, Caro lyn, and I'd like it to be a year, with you. Summer is near, and the Pacific Northwest is beautiful. Then a lazy sea trip dowi) the coast and across to Mexico City They say it's romance land, sweet heart! Romance land!" He had slipped Into a boyish . sort of enthutiasrt. Her was a Bob Hale she had never known before! She could not answer, in words; there va a tautness in b( throat. But slie could press het head a little closer Into the crook of his shoulder, where -her lips could just touch his chin. Last thing they saw when they arose to go home was a fnint, gray spot high on the hills to the north east. That was the granite half ef Tonto Mountain, its peak holding one last hint of day's sun. "It's still beautiful," Carolyn murmured. "And strong," said he.; "Strong and triumphant. Like" he dropped to a whisper, "like our love, my dear."
