; 'TWERE was" much to do those
first few days following Caro-
' lyn'a arrival in Arizona.
Bob bought a station-waeon,
and together he and Carolyn
" drove the boxed X-999 through
the canyons to Blair, thence
branched onto the rougher trail
that led to the abandoned Copper
King mine in Tonto Mountain.
. There they were met by Bob's
workmen, who alreudy had re
conditioned the narrow gauge ore
track into the mine shaft.
When the X-999 had at last
' ' been deposited nearly three-quarters
of a mile inside the mountain
Itself, Bob showed visiblo relief.
"Now, for the first lime, I can
breathe easily," said he.
Caroly telephoned her mother,
and Mrs. Tyler had packed their
''.trunks and per3onal cllects to fol
low west.
- When she arrived, they decided
" to take her into partial conlldence,
explaining that the "chemical sub
stance" was hidden in the oban-
doncd Copper King Mine shaft
only because It was valuable und
.,' "dangerous to persons who
wouldn't handle It properly."
They did nU tell her just how
" terrifically great it was in cx
' plosive power, lost she bo uneasy.
' , "It is a mighty big mountain for
" a laboratory." Mrs. Tyler ga.ed
at Tonto Peak In awe.
Dr. Hale nodded. "About HOOO
feet Odd formation, really. Note
the bald, perpendicular spot on
. top that's a granito face. Left
half the mountain, seen from here,
is nlmost solid rock. Other half,
, you'll note, had up-ended strata,
loose shale and all manner of
stuff. There arc several beautiful
l: old trails, Mrs. Tyler. I shall
order a very gentle horse for you."

of Dr. Robert Hale, the better
she liked him. She couldn't blame
her impressionable daughter for
being a little bit "fooush" about
such a man. -

largely through intuition, but it

Lcana's eye3 had revealed It.
Lea nil's way of looking at Bob.
The little things Leana hail lei
slip back home. The peculiar cir
cumstance of that first explosion,
the hint contained in the telegram
to Leana, and the fact that a train
was robbed! They all added up
too much to be mere coincidence.
'I've been terrifically lucky,"
Carolyn whispered to herself, in
apprehension again. fane s not.
likely to miss any bets next time!"
Leanu had been brought to tne
mountain retreat, Carolyn knew,
because there was a great work
facing her and Bob harnessing
X-DDB, adapting its unprecedented
power to engines, inviting omer
distinguished scientists hero for
consultation, remaking the whole
world of engineering!
But Carolyn knew that some
where in this rush Leana Sormi
would strike again. And soon!
A WHOLE new settlement had
been constructed half a mile
from the granite side of Tonto
Peak and partly screened from
Tonto by a lesser hill, which Caro
lyn named Tonto, Jr. An electric
power line from Boulder Dam had
been tapped to supply the Im
promptu village, and telephone
lines had been extended from
Blatr.
Even comfortable guest cabins
had been built and were put to
use when Dr. Merrlvale and Dr.

Despite Carol's one-lime link
with the iion guard in fascist llu
m a n i a, the Soviets apparently
think he will play their game.
Just as he was about to leave
Hiti, however, the British pounc
ed on t h i! Pnrlugue.sc govern
ment unci got Hum to withdraw
Carol's visa. Without a Portu
guese visa, he can't get back to
Europe.
Tip-off on the nature nf the
Rumanian government: Carol's
fascist former p r I in e minister,
George' Taliuescu. who was on
tlti! Humaniaii war criminals list,
is now foreign minister with sov
iet blessing. 1
Tip-off on the close relations
between King Carol and Moscow:
Cigarets containing pictures of
Carol have been distributed to
lUtinanian soldiers in Russia.
WOULDN'T MISS WHEAT
Wheat, vitally important to us,
me.'m.s nothing to most of Ihc

Amei lean group, of the

one to utilize wheal fur food, and

never even heard of it.

Technology; Dr. O'Mara from the
university of Minnesota, engi
neers Harding and Treat, and
Capitalist Devereaux from great
industrial corporations in Detroit.
Still others would soon be ar
riving, Carolyn knew, for Bob and
Leana were gathering here the
best technical brains in America.
Moreover, the experimenters
actually had assembled and de
veloped one engine that functioned
with a minute speck of the X-
for power source, less than two
months after the arrival of the
crew in Arizona. . .
"It is unbelievablel" old Dr.
O'Mara cried.
'But it works!" shot back prac
tical Devereaux, an automobile
and airplane manufacturer. "I
don't need to tell you people that
this - will revolutionize all the
world's engineering."
THAT was true, too true for

in piecemeal. As for Carolyn, she
lived in a constant state of sus
pense and restrained excitement
a condition most pleasant for any
vivacious person. She acquired it
through her employment, - which
was a steady (hence delightful)
intimacy with Bob Hale.. Through
her he recorded every move tho
experimenters made.
That very intimacy with- Bob,
however, was observed day by
day by Leana Sormi. And Carolyn
knew it. Realization of Leanas
jealousy kept alive the only flaw
in an otherwise perfect existence
here.
She felt that Leana Sormi was
secretly raging. As indeed sho
was.
But It was not until an evening;
when most of the new village per
sonnel had mot for dinner together
in the largest house, and Bob and
Carolyn had relaxed so as to laugh
heartily like the young people
they were and had even danced
twice to radio music, that Leana
felt her restraint again give away.
That night she sat until well
past 1 o clock, crystallizing a
brand-new plan. It was auda
cious, yet so perfect she could see
no possibility of failure. It could
give her everything she wanted
and it could be effected at once.
