THE STOLEN GOD
By Edison Marshall
SYNOPSIS
When Ned Holden stepped from
the train at Bangkok, Siam. he
looked the typical American tour
ist on his first trip to the Orient.
Yet : Holden, son of a devoted
Yankee mother . and a sealous
American missionary, had gr.wn
op la Asia. Officially an ethnolo
giit be is actually a secret service
man who helps "maintaia the white
man's peace" over a million square
miles of savage country. Back from
a dangerous search for an Anna
mite revolutionary, Holden plana a
three months holiday. At a tea
dance, he meets Virginia Griffin,
attractive American girl from St.
Louis, Missouri, and tells her about
the famous Emerald Buddha with a
sacred diamond in its forehead.
Daniel Griffin, noted Oriental art
collector, and his secretary and
Virginia's nance. Andre Chambon,
join the party. Holden is sum
moned to the palace council cham
ber where he learns that the Emer
ald; Buddha has been stolen from
the temple. Revolution may result
If it cannot be recovertd before the
Siamese winter festival six weeks
hence.
daughter and secretary, lie might
be going to some lonely rendezvous,
wnere Hired bandits will deliver
something of great value into his
hands." !
"I met Griffin and, his dari-tit-
and the daughter's fianc, Vicomte
Chambon. I heard nothing of any
secretary in the party."
"The vicomte and the secretary
are one and the same. 'The impover
ished young nobleman went to work
I or Griffin four years ago, when he
nd his daughter; were visiting
fan's. It .was the vicomte who
changed the money and applied for
the passports." )
Ned muttered a bitter Malay
kingdom and crown. Thou art of an
other blood, but thou wert born
within our borders, and we think of
thee as our own."
-Until J return to my father!
land, thoa art my king."
"Thou hast already done us much
good service. Now I ask the great
est service of thy life, and give the
six weeks in which to accomplish it.
Bring back the Emerald Buddha TED
desecrated to his temple 1"
Not because he must, but because
he wished .to, Ned touched his finger-ends
to his forehead between
the eyes. -
"Thy servant hears thy com
mand." i (

Emerald Buddha t"
"Of course he's still In Bangkok;
lie cant be drried in a man's
pocketbook. You're searching every
box and trunk leaving the city?"
Yes. Ostensibly for opium."
' "Four men with guns. Have you
considered the possibility it may not
be a political crime at all 7 It would
be a rich prize for a gang of inter
national thieves."
Ralston sat up straight. "We
Aat considered that possibility. As
you say, a rich prize. But not only
for a gang or thieves."
- A tiny cold spot began to spread
In Ned. heart. "What do you
mean 7" -
"Only the Buddha, with his
sacred diamond, and three golden
suit weoe can en. not the Jeweled
trees. That looks as though he was
not stolen for his pecuniary value.
And if not for political or religious
reasons, what does that leave? His
tremendous Importance as a work
of Orient art! The curio of a life
time for an unscrupulous million
aire's collection t"
Ned leaped from his chair. "Good
Lord, you dont think"
Ralston was instantly sp beside
him. "The most famous the most
unscrupulous collector of Oriental
art is now in the city of Bangkok.
The American millionaire, Daniel
7riffln.- . ' '
Ned knew that he must fight this
Idea to the last ditch. His fingers
were perfectly steady as he filled
and lighted his pipe. "Coincidence,"
be said shortly, at last.
"Perhaps."
"Na collector would upset ' the
peace of the Far East for the sake
f a curio, no matter how rare it la."
Ralston looked up quickly. "You
know better than that. Ned. It's the
first time I've ever. heard yon say
something yon know lint true Most
great collectors are egotists. Many
of ther lose their sense of values.
On the subject of their special fe-ti-h,
many of them are insane.
But suppose Griffin has the Em
erald Buddha, and could somehow
smuggle it into America. He could
never exhibit it, except possibly to
his most intimate friends."
He could gloat over it in secret."
"I've met Griffin. He didn't im-
Eress me as the gloating kind. Off
and. I'd 'say he doesnt know the
d -Terence between a Ming vase and
Cham water Jug."
That most be his pose. His deeds
peak for themselves. Remember
the incident of Kublai Khan's seal,
in Peiping."
But in this ease yen have no
grounds for the suspicion, other than
that he happens to be in Bangkok."
He has just changed fifty thou
sand American dollars Into Siamese
tlcsls and Indo-Chinese piasters.
That looks as though he intends to
do some mighty expensive collecting-
.
"What does be want of piasters?"
Ned asked curiously.
He has applied for passports to

So when George Ralston returned
to the council room, he found Ned
sprawled in a chair, already plan
ning -his campaign. At once he
leaped np and began to stamp about
the room.' . , : ,
Now I'm In It, I'm going to go
the whole hog," he said. "There
won't be any halfway measures,
and if there's murder and sudden
death it won't be on my head. Tha
first thing is to search their rooms.
The Buddha won't be there, but
something may be found to fit Into
the picture. If Griffin is as cunning
as yon think, he may be too cunning
and plant evidence that will go oft
under him. And since there's no
one else we can trust, IH have to
make the search myself." .
That's the spirit. We're under
everlasting obligations to yon,
Ned."
"Dont praise me. I've been forced
into it. Will yon and your wife ask
Griffin and his daughter and Vi
comte Chambon to tea . tomorrow

That can be arranged.'
"I wish I were going to be there,
a white man and a gentleman, in
stead of playing Paul Pry In their

chance with her, I'd tell the Emerald

Ralston' smiled and shook his
head. "I know yon better than that,
Ned. You'd stick to It, no matter the
cost."
Ned's smile was little and grim.:

"Why do yoo say that, Ned?"
" "I happen to mean it." Ned's
cheek's flushed. "You can count me
out, as far as the Griffin family is
concerned. I like the old man. I

his daughter. Besides, I've earned
a long rest and am going to take it."
You're mistaken, Ned. You're,

Ned's eyes narrowed and his Jaw
set. But before ha could find words

Ralston left the room. Ned wait
ed ozJy a moment, then a dark-eyed
Siamese boy, who looked no more
than ten years old. came through
the door, followed by an aide in mili

feet. -
"Thou hast heard of the great
trouble that has come upon us," the
boy began in classic Siamese.
Aye, lord." i

Stock Rdly Hit
By Sizable Tumble
NEW YORK, July 8 - (JP) -
Stocks required only a compara
tively light push today to suffer
the most size-ble tumble since the
sharpest market advance of the
past several years got under way
on June 20.
At that, the fall was accom
plished on relatively small volume
when matched with the heavy
dealings when prices were mount
ing. Transfers totaled 1.56C.670
shares against 2,775,420 yester
day, which was the largest day
since Oct. 29. Today's aggregate
was the most meager for a 5-thour
session since June 28. ;
Belated . support for selected
aircrafts, oils and rail shelved to
cutearly declines running to 3
or more points, but the Associated
Press average of 60 issues lost .8
of a point at 47.7.
Volume of Wool
Business Slows
But Price Is up
BOSTON, July 8-(ff)-The Com
mercial Bulletin will say tomor
row: ; .
"There has been, a lessening in
the volume of business 'done in
tne wool market this week, al
though there continues to be
fair turnover all along the line
Values harev. shown, little, further
advance but have been generally
consolidated and the market Is
very firm. '
"In the west, the movement has
oeen siauea to a considerable ex
tent by the fact that growers and
country dealers have ..virtually
withdrawn their wools from the
market by marking them up more
or less sharply. Best fine and half-
blood staple clips are quotable at
63 cents, clean basis, at Boston.
There is an average of 15 per cent
advance from the low point.
"Piecegoods markets are a bit
firmer, although lagging behind
the movement in wool.
