The Yanks and French are now teaming in a two-column advance to lank the Germans facing the British in the Medjez el Bab, regita. fr By JAMES MARLOW and GEORGE ZIELKE WASHINGTON, May 5 (ifj Under the steady pounding of this war's developments on the borne front, American's can't help knowing perhaps better than ever in their history that: The things which once may have seemed to them remote and unrelated in the national life are tied in with their own dally lives and always have been. The days events race along the American nervous ysstem as sharply I a pinc-brlck on the foot or a punch on the jaw that aeta the brain dizzy and loosens the legs like a sawdust doll's. Before the war It may have happened that A housewife wondered vaguely about the rising price of butter, a cab driver skipped the story of a coal strike because the miners were far off, a coal miner turned the page to get away from the fasts and figures on a new oil pipe-hne. But everywhere now Americans know that whatever happens In just those three items Out of thousands will affect them eventually In what they do, buy, earn: The pipeline gets through to the east coast, Increasing oil supplies there.

It might mean more gasoline for civilians. Including miners In the Appalachians, and more fuel for homes that were oold last winter. If the miners got a wage Increase. some say It might mean a general wage Increase all over the country. If butter goes up, and with1 it other foods, then Sooner or! later, some economists say, wage Increases would have to follow.

I But look at these words and phrases which stream across the fac of tha dally newspapers, a picture in language of the seesaw, struggle for bread and stability: Roll back prices; inflation; war bonds absorb excess purchasing power; the general cost of living Is up 22 per cent. All the words are at least cousins, some are blood brothers. Reading them dav after day, Americans now I I I pup" -1 Land mint txploalon irnda geyser of dirt Into the air near a barrage balloon aa column ot troop approach at left on training aneuvera at Camp Tyson, Tenn.

i -t i A I see the family ties. Like this: I Prentiss Brown, pnee administrator, savs he will roll ba ck the price of I certain foods. That would mean lower prices. Buy why? to prevent I inflation. Inflaon means money has lost some of its value, can no longer buy what it used to buy Example; if a pound of butter cost 25 cents a pound before the war.

eo6U 50 cento now. War bonds absorb excess purchasing power means: because so much more now is being made for war, so much les for civilian use, civilians will have more to spend than there wil be goods to buy. If they all staged bidding against one another for what can be bought, up would go prices. Then their money would lose value, there would be greater inflation. In war bonds the money would be out of circulation Brown says the general cost of living has risen 22 per cent since August, 1939.

so that an American now would have to be making 22 per cent more than he did then if he wished to live on the same scale now as then. There has been that much inflation. This is nationwide warning being published in the interest of protecting public health.

If Renaldo got him aboard that email boat, thia would be his last dawn in a friendly country his last sight of Allison. She. looked very email and very dear, crouched beside him on the log, her pointed chin sunk Into her hand, her eyes brooding ovei the shoreline, where a score of Indians rushed to Renaidos orders.

Her cropped hair was a bright, tousled halo, Barry felt suddenly, for no reason, reckless and happy. Allison, he grinned down at her. Do you mind a personal Why ask now? she retorted morosely. Youve been shooting them et me for years. Are were you in love with Renaldo? 1 She frowned.

The beast," she eried viciously. Then she considered the question fairly. No, she reported, turning to smile at Barry. "Thank goodness I wasn't. But I did think he was romantic and handsome and very nie.

I was a moron. Barry felt happier and more reckless. You wouldn't fall in love with me, would you? he hazarded. I certainly would not, she snapped. Not if I had the choice.

Youre too stubborn." She kicked her boot into the sand at her feet angrily. Of course I didnt have the choice, she added under her breath. I was in love with you one deep breath after I met you as any fool could plainly see. I couldnt, said Barry. But, she flared, I'm not without a certain code of honor even in the jungle.

As soon as-1 get you out of this going-away-on-that-boat business, Im sending you back to Lila." Thats big of you, Barry grinned, but itll be hard. Lila started for Puerto Barrios this morning. rpHE Quiche guards stolid gaze faltered as he watched his prisoners kiss. Re had thought the white woman belonged to the Spaniard. With a sigh of relief, he noted that Renaldo himself was striding towards than from the beach.

The quicksilver Is aboard, he said shortly. The boat will leeve shortly after sunset. There is no point in our staying here longer." He looked at Allison. She said quickly, I wont go back with you. The Spaniards face was set, but the cords in his neck swelled.

You wont go with him, he retorted. Then his voice grew coolly formal. You have everything to lose and nothing to gam by resisting, Miss Topping. I drew up your fathers will. In case of vour death, I inherit the plantation.

Boy, what you couldn't have done in Barry murmured sarcastically. Some day," Renaldo! voice softened as his dark gaze fixed on Allison, we will be rulera of this country, you and I. Then you will thank me. He ordered the Indian to slash the rope that tied Allison's and Barry'i wrists together. Allison glowered at him through clenched teeth.

I can see myself thanking you, she said. As the Indians knife severed the rope, with an expert flick, Barrys memory flashed backward. He turned to Renaldo, his eyes gleaming with suspicion. You said you hadnt seen Hall, he said. But you had.

You kept him from getting to the Moncha Suma and this private graft of yours. And you sent Indians up the coast to stop any more Intruders bound for Quiche country, didnt you? That Indian who attacked you on the boat at Santiago! cried Allison, aghast. The thin smile that played over Renaidos thin lips was cralty. He shrugged. I am resourcelul when my interests are jeopardized, he murmured.

He nodded to the Indian beside them. Take the prisoner to the boat. No! Allisons cry rang out furious and desperate. But before the Indian had reached Barry, Renaidos voice cracked out again. Its swaggering smoothness wai abruptly gone.

There was a sharp note of anxiety in it. You found Hall at the hidden shack? Where is he now? Barry grinned mockingly. Wouldnt you like to know? he taunted. A dark shadow of fear crossed Renaidos face. He went to Moncha Suma!" Turning with nervous haste, he gave an Indian call.

1 1 'HE Quiche Indians at die beach started toward them at a trot The jutting promontory cut them from view Whan they did not come around It Renaldo called again. His voice echoed back from the cliff. After several minutes, he slid his. gun from his holster and waved Barry and Allison before him. The four of them walked along the shoreline through the brilliant mist of the sunrise air.

rounded the promontory with breathless curiosity. Before them in the narrow ravine that wound down to the sea I was a weird tableau! A hundred feet in front of a huddled group of mules, Moncha Suma stood tall and thunderous! Only Hall and Tony were beside him. But before, him flat on their faces in the damp sand were Renaldo' Quiche workers! Get up! Renaldo's command brought the dazed Quiches automatically to their feet. Fifty silver pesos for bringing the Moncha Suma to me! he cried. Allison moaned.

Hall was glowering but weaponless. Tonys hand was on his knife but he looked hopelessly outnumbered by the score of Quiche. There was only on weapon among the three. That weapon was Moncha Sumas black eyes. They bored Into the oncoming line of rebel Quiches like fiery, flashing arrows.

The line faltered. Go on! Renaldo shouted. He'll kill you if you dont! The relentless Are of the chiefs eye blazed more hypnotically. His voice rang out in the strained silence in a mesmeric icy monotone. You are dead men now.

You have broken the oath of Chichicastenango. Thats rubbish," Renaldo shouted. Go on! Go on!" The Quiche rebels staggered on for several paces, like men be- witched. Then, despite Renaldos angry commands, they stumbled one by one, and dropped into the sand, bodies twitching, lips moving. Renelde eursed them bitterly, then lapsed into silence.

Barry glanced back in quick apprehension. He saw the Spaniards gun turning slowly from him toward Moncha Suma. There wax no time for warning. Ha leaped back! Allison's scream rang above the gun's report. PJ ALL and Barry were kneeling, tying the last knot in the rope -binding Renaidos wrists when Allisons tear-stained cheek pressed for moment against Barry's.

Hurry, she whispered. Tony and I think Moncha Suma la half inclined to slip you a few quicksilver mines for saving his life. Barry gave her a quick kiss. Youre trembling," he grinned. In fact, youre beginning to cry! The deal must be set Ax the tropic sun broke over the horizon, they wait beck together to Moncha Suma.

THE END THE MANUFACTURERS OF FLETCHERS CASTORIA rrinMin 1 a SIGHTS SOUNDS BY BOBBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD Jennifer Jones is a Hollywood paradox, and tiats putting it mildly. Tha charming, dear-eyed young actress reversed the usual procedure, of climbing up the ladder of screen success by starting out at the top, and she knows all the determination and ability to stay there. Unheralded and entirely devoid of the usual Hollywood publicity-bathing suit buildup, Jennifer is traveling rapidly the road to fame and acclaim by playing the coveted title role in The Song of Bernadette, Prana Werfels touching story of the little French girt whose vision created the miraculous shrine of Lourdes and who was canonized by the Catholic Church. Many of Hollywoods top actresses would have turned in their last years husbands for a shot at the role of Bemadete. Hie quiet, unassuming Jennifer qualified to play Bernadette when her reaction to a simulated vision during her screen test so impressed the producers that she was signed on the dotted line before she could catch her breath.

She won out over a myriad of candidates for the role. Before getting her big chance, Jennifer had a previous attempt at Hollywood fame at a small studio when she was 19. After giving a couple of horse operas a whirl, she returned to New York where she maried and found time In between stage roles to have two lovely children. Two years ago she was tested for the title of the play Claudia for the Chicago company. In her own words, the test was a fizzle and she returned to her modest home In Garden City.

N. somewhat alarmed few the future of her career The next day the telephone buzzed and she was told to meet David O. Selznlck's representative in New York. 8he didnt the role, but she did receive a contract from Selz-niclc, and she now is one of his most valuable properties. Her background for the role of Bernadette borders on the perfect.

She was educated at a convent conducted by the Benedictine Sisters in Tulsa. and during summers she played In stock companies touring Oklahoma. Kansas and Texas. Her lifolong ambition has been acting. and the Bernadette role gives her all the leeway necessary to fulfil that ambition.

So watch this little Jones girl who figures there is onlv one rung on the ladder of success the top one.
