CHAPTLIt XIX
With u quiver of relief. Cilly
awakened from u dream of horror.
The warm morning buu shone
through her open window. What
u hlesHiug the morning sun wus!
All through the night, she hud
boon in uluelields, w hero every
street wus a. pltch-bluck roof,
bordered by yawning, treacherous
chasms, into which otto pitched ut
tliu first halting misstep. Where
nil these Btreets converged, Jim
hud stood with arms out-stretched
to greet her, though u thousand
shadowy poiicemen struggled to
hold htm back. And along the wuy
drunken Corbetts mocked her,
and purulyed men uroso from
(heir wheul-chuiru to block her
puth.
Sho sat up In bed and rubbed
her eyes. Her heart still ihunipcd
from the excitement of her ud
venture in sleep. Under tho covers
her feet wero cold and dump. Her
eyes traveled from ono to another
of Hie familiar olijeels in tliu room
until she was finally, thoroughly.
awuke.
Today was Wednesday. Only
two days since she hud last heard
trom Jim, but what endless days
they had been ! How many more
would sho have to wait until he
eturued to lilt tho clouds? All
(he world would be right if sho
ould hear his voice again, it she
ould feel tho ulreugth of his huud
on hers. ...
Thoughtfully she rose and
dressed. Thou, hecauso uho was
so miserably ionely and forlorn,
Hlio walked dow n lo the drug ilore
on tho corner for breukfuut. On
tho way. she bought a newspaper.
Die murder ol Amy Kerr. hTto
noticed, wus still front page news.
She read it a a tdio drank her
of foe.
KotJirnliig to her anarlnienl, she
met Detective Matlin In the hall.
"(iood morning, Miss Pierce," he
greeted. "I ve just been through
the house. Dnlan wants everyone
down at police headquarters this
morning at 10:u.
"Very well. I'll bn there," Cilly
assured him. She derided that she
would he thero at lu o'clock to
inform the sergeant of her latest
discovery. He hud ruled Mr.
Hunler out as a possibiltly because
of the mutt's phyhlcal incapacity.
This morning, however. Hunter
loomed in Cilly's mind as u v-ry
imporlaut possibility. Why would
u man deliberately lie liiniHelf to
a wheel-chair when ho was well
ablo to walk? .
I-ator, however, when a burly
poltcvmnu ushered her into a pri
vate rooip at police headuuurlerH,
aim discovered she would have i.o
opportunity to tee the sergeant
alone. . Several of the liayvlew
tenants had arrived before her.
They sat in a setnicirclo uioiuul a
plain flat lop desk, nervously ex
pedant. She recognized tn Dow
ncys; so obviously mother and
daughter. Air. Hunter, looking
feeble and trail In his wheel-chair,
wus there with his wife. A blunk
et covered his supposedly helplrss
lnnhs. Cilly felt an overwhelm
ing urge lo kick him in the shins
as she passed, to Hue it he would
jump. She wondered how the
man had made I lu- journey,
wheel chair mid all. Detective
Martin mhi-i UUl, provided a spe
cial police car.
Mr. Johnson arrived a few min
utes atl.-r she Was HeHted, and he
was followed by a ynilig couple
the Smiihs. Undoubtedly. An et
Iheio was no sign of Mrs. W heeler.
Promptly at u::iu. Sergeant
Dolan entered the room, followed
b Martin. Dc.l.ui seated himself
at the dc.-k. his back to the double
windows. Muniu stood behind
him, leaning uguinst a wludow
SOUfc
r il ll
sill. The tenants sut facing the
windows, where the light shone
on their fuces dourly and relent
lessly. If they lied, Cilly thought,
Uoluii would bo able to read it in
their features,
"Everybody here, Martin?" o
lan asked.
Martin checked with a list in
his hand. "Didn't get lu touch
with the Wheeler woman yet," lie
reported. "Tho three other ten
ants are still out of (own but I
don't see tho Corhetts."
The Corhetts. Cilly looked up
in surprise. Hut, of course, they
would be summoned. .Mrs. Cor
bett's mother was (he only person
who actually saw the murder
committed. Her testimony would
bo more important.
Kven as Martin spoke, the door
opened and they entered. Mr.
Corbett, Cilly noticed, hud sur
vived his drinking very well. He
wus immaculate in u light gray
trupicul worsted, und he curried
himself with un uir of ussuruuee.
Mrs. Corbett, tho sumo meek
and humblo woman Cilly hud first
met, followed her husband hesi
tantly into the room. Shu wore
a nondescript blue voile dross, und
it hung limply on her thin frame.
Her luce wus pule und drawn.
Her mother, in spile of asthmu,
held her head high and entered
lUe room villi a firm alcp. There
was a chullenge in her durk eyes,
and her chin was aggressive.
Small wonder, Cilly thought, lhat
Mrs. Corbett was nervous and
haggard. What u lifo alio must
endure us tho buffer between these
t w o dominant individuals her
husbuud und her mother!
As soon us tiny wero scaled,
Sergeant Dolau uddrcssed the
group:
"You all know," ho began, in
culm, rather friendly voice, "u
young woman was killed in a fall
lrom tho roof of tho Buyvicw
apartments Ht Sunday nlglil or,
to oe more exact, at early
Monday morning. Wo have a wit
ness present who can testify that
tho girl did not fall, but wus de
liherutely thrown from Iho roof.
l lus is a cold-blooded murder,

impress upon you tho importance
of absolute truth und accuracy in

Shaw, will you pleuso loll us

the roof of the Kavvlew?"
Mrs. Corbet I'd mother cot to her
feet. All eyes were turned upon
her. Dramatically, sho Miuareii

pared an opiate for me, und I did
not awaken until morning."
"Thank you, Mrs. Shaw. May
I ask if the light wus sufficiently
strong for you to recognize this
man in any wuy?"
"It was not." Mrs. Shaw re
sumed her aeut.
Sergeant Dolau scanned . the
faces before him. "Now I am go
ing to ask each of you to remem
ber .very carefully what happened
Sunday night. We'll start with
you, Mr. Hunter, You live on the
top floor, directly under the roof
where the murder was committed.
Did you hour any voices on the
roof, tiny sign of uuarreliug?"
"No, sergeant," Hunter replied.
He spoko in a frail voice, us if to
mutch tho infirmity of his limbs.
"I must have been asleep, it was
Hie scream which woke me up.
My wife run to the window. . .
"Did you get up?"
The mun shook his head sor
rowfully. 'I couldn't do thut, you
see." He made u futile gesture
toward his le;;s. "I haven't walked
in H) years."
'Cilly stood up, her eyes afire.
"Sergeant Dolan," she cried,
"will you ask Mr. Hunter how it
happens, therefore, that last night
from across tho street I saw hint
walking about his bedroom in his
pajamas?"
The man gasped; ho turned to
staro at Cilly, and in his eyes thero
blazed the malevolent fear of a
trapped animal.
"Is that true, Hunter?" Dolan
snapped.
"Tho girl's vrii4y," he choked
through dry lips. 'She's crazy or
drunk. I can't walk ... I have
doctors' statements to prove it."
For a moment, Cilly regretted
her impulsiveness. She should
have told tho sergeunt ubont it
privately, so that ho could check
for himelf. Now it was merely
her word against Hunter's, und be
would take special cure not to bo
discovered again.
"Wliat time was this, Miss
Pierce?" Dolau inquired.
"Eleven o'clock, sergeunt. There
is no mistuko ubout it. I saw
him. . . ."
"Say! Wait a minute!"
Cilly spun uround lo face Mm
man who Buddenly interrupted
her. It was Mr. Corbett. There
was a malicious glint in his eyes.
"In another minute, sergeant,
tho young lady will be telling you
about pink elephants," ho offered
with tolerant umusement. "At il
o'clock last night she was in my
apartment, drinking rye highballs.
And, believe mo, she was In con
dition to see a great many things

RUMBLINGS

WAKI) CUM MINGS was in the j
office Saturday with some cou
pons which the Veterans of For-

prepared for pub
lication, lu Ihe

the country.
These coupons
are to be filled
out by the gener
al public (those
who are interest
ed) and mulled to

that the mem

Introduce a measure in the house
which would properly define a
"slato of wur" when such 'appear
ed to exist between nations.
The veterans (together with the
rest of us) are a bit confused by
ull the fighting going on, when
war never bus been officially de
clured. if Japan and China for
instunoe -were officially at war,
rules of conduct by other nations
would bo so much mure simpli
fied. Many people (some with repub
lican or anti-New Deal leanings)
havo been heard to say thut one
of these duys the U. a. ought to
slup the sox off Jupun, and put
her back in her place.
These sume fellers are also
often heurd expressing their fear
mat President Koosevolt, if he
isn't stopped some wuy, will make
himself dictator in this country.
About the simplest way to bring
this event ubout, would be for the
patriotic hotheuds of this country,
regurdless of party affiliation, to
force tlie nation into a wur.
In time of wur (have you forgot
ten It?) the president sure bosses
tho roost. And how!

REPUBLICANS SEEK
1840 CANDIDATE
Hoover, as Well as Landon,
Counted Out of Picture;
Program Next Job.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. (AP)
Republican leaders counted Alf
M. Landon and Herbert Hoover out
of the 1940 presidential picture to
day.
Although In many quarters Lou
don's emphatic elimination of him
self was regarded as a challeugo
to Hoover to do the same, most re
publican spokesmen did not ex
pect the former presldeut lo re
spond, I .
They were inclined to accopt as
final his recent statement that "I
do not wunt any public ottlce."
Senator McNary of Oregon, re
publican leader ot tho senate, was
among the congressmen who took
this view of the situution.
"Since Mr. Hoover und Mr. Lan
don have taken themselves out of
the race," McNary suid, "we must
look to new leadership."
Many party spokesmen, looking
ahead to 1940, forecast the off-year
elections lu 1938 might push some
successful republican gubernato
rial or senatorial candidate con.
spicuously to the fore.
The party's national executive
committee will meet in SL Louia
Monday to pick a program com
mittee of 10U. Hoover had sug
gested this as a preliminary to a
1938 convention.
Landon visited Ihe white house
yesterday at President Roosevelt's
invitation.
The Kansan said he had a "very
nice visit and was glad to see tho
president looking so good."
