"This proves it!" Her initial flush of regret over having opened a private pcrsonui message, was completely gone. Quiet anger rose within her. Hur riedly she re-sealed the mcsKuge its envelope hud been too loosely glued and took it to Leuna's desk. Leana was across the compound at the laboratory now. Carolyn went there, planning as she walked. She would have to think fasti The guards all knew her because she had hired and paid them. But there was the mut ter of door keys, and physical help. Ken Palmer would do anything she asked. The U-235, Bob had said, would be in four leaden boxes totaling some 150 pounds, perhaps more. "When will you load the boxes on the freight car?" she asked Bob, when he hud a moment to spare. "Bo ready tomorrow morning. Tonight, really. But too much ac tivity again ut night might excite suspicion. Best to move as if it were simple routine, don't you think?" She nodded. She saw the boxes and went gingerly near to them, With Bob. "One man could lift one box, couldn't he?" slio inquired, In cusual tone. "Oh sure. It's safe now, encased In the lead." He smiled tolerantly as if at a child, then showed her how easy it was by moving one of Baptist Church Here Many Years; Plan Building Organised and located in "Old Town" for many yours, the pres ent Baptist church was eiec'rc! in IDOC. The present pastor entered the work in December, 1044, and found a church school with de partments lor all ages. Youth Fellowship has increased. Woman's sucvly Interests ?' tor in foreign and local work, and fosters fellowship among tin' women of the congregation. A children's meeting, named "Tl ' Light (jf the World," mc'ts we. U !y, excepting the summer months and has a program of siui'iug, Hlble and Missionary study. Kim talent among the young folk who co-operate well, provides lead, i :. in various sections of Uk1 church as well us musicians and singers for the services. About 11(1 stars are on the service flag. A fov of the men are back and in the work again. Two chaplains, a former pastor, Hov. (I. II. Marrs, and ltev. K. J. Cain are still ac tive abroad. Through the college year th. church has many students in the congregation. A fellowship for the .students is maintainrd at which many attend. The church has aided in the Do-Nut Hut, Clideons, llihlo so ciety and tin National Associa tion of Kvangelisculs. The church takes part in the union daily vaca- Bible school annually. Ilecently extra property ad joining the church was acipiii. il and is being made icady for a lawn. Later, when it is possible, a Christian education unit is to be erected for which a fond is being made ready. At the pre.-. 'lit time an Kvange listic Cruisadi' is lx ing eondueli'd U. S. Army Man the containers a few feet and that was precisely what Carolyn want ed to know, COME time later a westbound freight train was moving at average speed across a nearby state. It was exactly like hun dreds of other such freight trains, except that in the caboose rode four urmed guards, carefully picked from those who hud stood duty near the Schoenfeld Labora tory. They did not look like guards. They were dressed like railroad brokemen. Dr. Hale had simply explained to the railroad authorities that he was shipping some valuable chem icals and had arranged for those four "caretakers" to go along. They would stay, In shifts, with the specially chartered freight car when it was shunted onto a siding ut the remote village of Blair, Ariz. Bob himself had thought to go along as guard but, as Carolyn pointed out, he could do nothing that trusted hired men couldn't do, and his presence on the train might arouse too much Interest. Then, too, Carolyn suggested, If the shipment went without him, Bob could wind up his business affairs at the laboratory, and fly west with Carolyn nnd her mother, in time to meet the train. Leana Sorml was not present to discuss the matter when the train left. Bob told Carolyn that Leana had been unexpectedly called out of town. Carolyn Bald nothing, but her pulse quickened. The train rolled with routine smoothness for several hours. The four men in its caboose hud been Instructed to sleep only In shifts of two even while moving. There is little to do in u freight caboose. Monotony settled hard and was abruptly broken when the train slowed down In a forest on Church of Cod Flans to Build First Church of CTml, of which Hev. T. M. Mitchell is pastor, has a Sunday school enrollment of 85. The congregation is worship ping at temporary quarters, Lane Chum 1, First and Crook streets.

The conductor looked up first. "Hey!" he called, to no one in particular, "Ain't no stop sched uled here. We ain't at no place, In fact!" "Trouble on the engine, I reck on," a brakeman ventured. He was more right that ha guessed. The long train stopped completely, and at once two muBked men appeared In the ca boose door. "Just ait tight!" one commanded, behind a stubby but fierce looking sub-machine gun. "With your hands high!" TVEWS of the train robbery x " reached Carolyn Tyler at 1:40 o'clock next morning. The tele phone jangled her awake. Bob was calling "Carolyn!" He was liter ally crazed with anxiety. "It has happened again! Our train it was held up! Robbed! The agent just telephoned me, too. They took our stuff! Held up our men! The whole thing all of It all of It took It away, Carolyn I I" He was so nervous as to become inarticulate. And for her part, Carolyn nad a sudden chilling sen sation. For long seconds she stood breathless, staring at the table light by her phone. But In her was no acute fear. She felt oddly enough a peculiar elotlon. "Bobl" she cried. "No! I No Bob! They didn't! I know what I'm talking about! Look, I'll come to you at once and " "But they did, Carolyn! The agent said " "No, no, I tell you! I don't care what the agent said. Get hold of yourself, Bob, and listen to me. It's all right. All right, I tell you. Your X " She remembered not to mention the secret, even In this stress. " Your shipment is safe, I " "They took the entire thing! All four of the boxes! A1H" "No, I tell you, Bobl I listen, they may have stolen the boxes and everything from that freight car, Bob, but I tell you your pre cious stuff wasn't there! I I took it out myself, 'Bob!

Some labor officials believe that management has no right to higher profit or operating reserve. Getting labor's recognition of this right is con siilered necessary to secure im provi il lalior relations balancing this; some recognition may be sought on the idea that labor is entitled to share in the profits and benefits of technilogical ad vances which cause increased l bor productivity. And so on. Agreement on simple princi ples such as those are consider ed necessary before there can lx any progress towards labor peace. ltenclits of the forthcoming con ference are therefore not expect i'il to he immediate, but if top management and top labor can agree on fundamentals, within some week's or months after the eerteii'iici' closes, positive results might reasonable Im expected.
