For to America's language and customs, little Pearl a total stranger.

He father has forgotten his solaunts speak only English, and French, her sten, and Pearl's two English words, "dog" and "kitty," are not much help as mediums for conveying affection. But there have been hundreds of hur's and kisses lavished on the little French stranger in the last few days, and Pearl is convinced that going to be happy in her new world. AWAITING FATHER Through an interpreter furnished by the Interviewer she bravely voiced this conviction' in simple sentences, while she awaited in the home of her aunt, Mrs. Frances Pedretti of San Pablo, for the arrival her father, Valentine Floha, who was coming from San Francisco to claim her. Smiles and alternated as she the told of her sorrotte at leaving kind grandmother in France and her love for the relatives who greeted her here.

She remembers nothing of her previous life in this country, for she left America when she was years old. All her baby English has been forgotten. But she knows that she can learn the language. "I have been in school in Paris dace I was five," she said, "and my teachers said I did well. I can learn in the American school, too." Memories of war romance between Valentine Flohs, soldier in the World War, and Richmond beautiful Renee Blin are revived by the return of the small expatriate to her native Home-sickness proved too strong for the young French mother, after she had lived here for four years, and she returned to her family in Paris, taking 3-year-old Pearl with her, LOSES MOTHER Last July she died, and it became necessary for Pearl cross the ocean again to live with her father.

Two misadventures marred the voyage on the French-American liner Nicaragua. The first day out she broke the doll grandmother had provided for company, and after that she was seasick half a day. But when she was well she found little girl who proved a wonderful playmate, and Mrs. John Perry of San Francisco, in whose charge. she was placed by steamship officers, took fine care of her.

"Madam Perry was so. good," the Interpreter translated, "and everybody was very kind. There were no storms, and I was not afraid a bit. I played all over the boat, and the twenty-eight days on the sea did not seem long. I was sorry 1 broke my.

STRONG TIES SEVERED For, after all; strong ties have been severed for Pearl, and there is a cloud of wistfulness in her eyes, despite her brave protestations.

For several days after her arrival the ringing of the telephone in the Pedretti home brought her running eagerly. Mrs. Pedretti did not understand, but a little probing by.

m. Sunday. The court of appeals of the District of Columbia remained in session long enough to grand the motion of the General Electric company, owner of the station, for a stay to postpone allocation order as it affects the station. Then the court adjourned over the weekend, and thereby gave definite assurance that the changed setup of stations would go into. effect Sunday except as to WGT.

WGY was placed on this wave length to operate until darkness at Oakland. Then it would be required to sign off because of possible heterodyne interference. The net result of the court's order is that the Pacific Coast, for the time being, is deprived of one of the cleared channels to which it 1s entitled under the allocation. RESULTS SOUGHT.
