for him. This was Aline's and Rill's
conception of a Christmas day.
His own was quite different.
Looking down at Olivia, he won-
dered who ahe was. One of Hill's
friends?
As if aware of hts presence,
Olivia opened her eyes.
She fought off lingering drowsi-
ness, murmuring contritely, "J—
I’m sorry if I’m irtruding.”
He pulled a chair for himself
over to the fireplace. "I'm not sure
if I’Ve met you. Rill’s friends come
and go, and one can't remember
all the young faces.”
She said, "Someone introduced
us, but before 1 could say how do
you do, someone else stepped be-
tween us I’m Olivia Wyman. Mrs.

"Failure isn’t necessarily defeat,
Olivia- Sometimes failure proves
that a man has tried to surpass
himself, and that’s gooq. One of
the great poets said once, ‘A man’s
reach must exceed his grasp, or
what’s a heaven for?’ ”
She looked unconvinced. "But if
Pete failed, he’d stop striving for
anything. His world would collapse
about hip ears.. I mustn’t let that
happen to him.”
"Isn’t that up to Pete himself?”
Hughes asked.
“Yes. But it’s my problem, too.
Anything that involves a risk to
the future is as much a wife’s
problem as a husband's—if she is

On the Friday before Christmas,
Olivia hyiched with Bertha Har-
land at the plant cafeteria. Bertha
was wearing her hair in a new
upsweep. --
"A concession to the holiday
spirit,” she told Olivia. "Once a
year I stop being merely useful
and have a fling at being decora-
tive. It's not my type, but my sis-
ter expects me to be a credit to
her when I’m staying at Glengold.”
"Did you say Glengold?” Olivia
asked, surprised.
Bertha nodded. "My sister mar-
ried Reginald Hughes Aline was

capitalized on it. She always in-
vites me to spend Christmas with

indifference." Bertha smiled mirth-
lessly.
She did not add that she herself
had loved Reginald Hughes — and
still did. He did not know it; he
had never given her a second
glance except in casual brotherly
affection-
But once a year Bertha moved
for a few hours in his world. She
knew she would come back to town
miserable and unhappy, envying
Aline, almost hating her. Why did
she go, she wondered, when it was
like prodding a quiescent pain in-
to nagging again? —
Olivia was toying with her salad.
"Pete and I are going to Glengold
for Christmas day. Rill invited us.”
“I didn’t know you knew Rill.
She'g not your type.”
Olivia smiled faintly. "She’s
really Pete’s friend. She takes lec-
tures with him. I don't know her
very well."
"Oh,” said Bertha, wondering at
the cloud of unhappiness behind
Olivia's eyes.
Rill’s party was very much as
Olivia had expected. It began at
noon Christmas day with egg-
nogs. And now, by early evening,
the party showed signs of con-
tinuing unabated until all hours.
People came and went They be-
came, as the evening progressed,
no more than a bewildering blur
of faces to. Olivia.
She hadn’t seen Pete for an
hour. She wondered if he were
with Rill.
She saw a young man coming
toward her with a glass in each
hand, a very persistent young
man^ just a little drunk. She

him, and collided with a well pad-
ded expanse of cerise taffeta. It
was Bertha Harland, with clusters
of jeweled flowers in her hair and
hoops dangling from her ears.
“Aline’s gift to me." Bertha said
deprecatingly, touching the gold
hoops and the flowers, "f feel like
Carmen Miranda, only more buxom
and decidedly less vivacious. Where
is Pete? And for heaven’s sake,
child, you look exhausted.'’ ’
"I'm a little tired,” Olivia con-
fessed.
"I’ll get you out of this mob,"
said Bertha.
She took Olivia to Reginald’s
study. The big book-lined room
was deserted. A coal fire burned
in the grate. Bertha pulled a lea-
ther chair over to the flreplace.
"Sit here, honey Maybe you can
sleep. I’ll find Pete and tell him
you're here." ,
Olivia sighed and leaned bacn
in the chair, smiling gratefully as
the older woman went out and
pulled the door to behihd her. The
room closed off the sounds of
revelry. x
Olivia closed her eyes and slept.
It was thus that Reginald
Hughes found her. He had sought
his own retreat when the noise
and the crowd became too much

NEA Washington Correspondent
VV'ASHINGTON, D. C.—(NEA)—It would take a five-f<W»t shelf
of books to review adequately the past year's record on observ-
ance of the Potsdam provisions relating to Poland, Austria, Hungary,
and the Ptlkan countries. With the exception of Austria, all of
these eastern European states are under complete
\ Russian control.
Western European and American officials must
■ rfdmlt frankly that they have only confused reports
of what goes on in these satellite nations. What's
M more, they are almost powerless to do anything
; ■ but protest when they believe the Potsdam agree-
merit is being violated in content or in spirit.
Take Poland. The Provisional Government of
® ®| National Unity was agreed to in Moscow by U. S.
'■ ‘MWF A'nba'-sad.a- Aveidl Harriman in the spring o( 1945,
® 1,5 I six months before the Potsdam declaration.
Egsan The new Polish government wasn’t new, but it
looked new because it included elements headed
hy SUmslaw Mikolajczyk, leader of the Peasant Party and the refu-
gee government that sat in London during the war. The United
States recognized this new government in July, 1945.
’T’HE Potsdam agreement called for "free and unfettered elections
as soon as possible." The one Polish election held thus far has
Man a referendum. The results of this election were known before
it was held. It was hardly a "free and unfettered" election.
, - The only reference to Austria in the Potsdam agreement was one
short section saying that a Russian proposal for extending the
Austrian provisional government to all of Austria had been received.
In October, this provisional government was recognized. In No-
vember, elections were held, the Catholic Party winning 85 seats, th*
Socialists 76, and the Communists four Since that time there has
been almost continuous strife between the recognized Austrian gov-
ernment and the Russian occupation authorities.
Only a formal peace treaty with Austria can straighten out this
tangle. But when Secretary of State Byrne? proposed drafting an
Austrian peace treaty at the April meeting of the Foreign Ministers
in Paris, the^Aissians refused to discuss the matter.
EQUALLY lo<^e were the Potsdam medium-range provisions for the
,y* government of Hungary, Bulgaria. Romania, Finlarid, and Italy.
,'The first three of these countries have been definitely under ex-
clusive Soviet control. The Red Army liberated them from Axis
domination, and Russian forces have occupied them.
. The United States never declared war on Finland, so it has had no
say in Finnish postwar affairs, although it will sit in on the writing
at the peace treaty with Finland.
One of the biggest, most constructive things to come out of Htf^dam
was the decision to proceed with the writing of peace treaties with
Italy, Finland, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria. These peace con-
ferences have just opened in Paris, one year after the Potsdam com-
ruqique was agreed to.

He leaned forward. "Did you
find the party as boring as I did?”

"Ye-es.” She hesitated, “Yes, it

within himself that might compli-

“Just what complications could

Olivia said slowly. "If Pete fails

"Is there any danger of that?"
