After Decision
NEW YORK, July 20 (IP)
Balls playing lor a further rise
in stocks were caught off-center
today by a sudden fall in movie
shares which were hit by the
federal government's court move
to separate the theatre end from
film production but tried - to
keep the market pointed upward
by shifting lntd public utilities.
e The fortunes of speculation
swayed confusingly throughout
another session of fast tradin
At the close gains and losses
were about evenly divided, with
industrial shares mostly lower
and rails and electric power
shares mostly higher.
Efforts to" carry on yesterday's
broad upswing into new high
ground for the mid-year bull
movement met opposition from
the start. A fresh drive toward
noon was stalled by the outburst
of Belling in! the amusement group
on the news the government had
filed anti-trust proceedings
against leading- motion picture
companies, l

"THE STOLEN GOD
: .By Edison Marshall
y CHAPTER XIV
Ned let Kob-Ken sleep an hour
past his time, then called his name.
At once the old man was beside him.
"Keep doss watch . tonight," Ned
ordered.
"Yea, lord. The dead walk tonight,"
It was true. All the dark was
thronged with hosts, but what
were their names, and where were
the lost graves from which they
rose, and what was the portent of
their return, even old; Koh-Ken of
the dark blood did not understand,
let alone this white-skinned alien
clasped merely for one life time in
the arms of Asia.
-Ned went to his blanket and was
soon asleep. It was the black ebb
tide of the night, just before its
turn, that he wakened with a leap
of his eyelids and a strong; surge of
his heart. (
The moon had set. There was a
dim glimmer, hardly more than a
pals mist, over the eastern hills that
promised soon the rush-and splendor
"of .the tropic dawn. The fire had
burned down to a few red sticks
ready to fall to black coals. His old
heart shocked more than he knew by
Fu-Bow violence. Koh-Ken had
fallen to sleep.
Without one movement to show
that he was awake. Ned looked and
listened. In spite of the unbroken
dark and the brooding silence, he
knew now that he had not been sum
moned from sleep in vain. The
camp was full of living things
crawling in the dust.
One of them was only a few feet
from his bed. It was no more than
haze in his eyes, a shadow vaguely
less black than the night that shield
ad it, yet slowly, stealthily be saw it
moving toward the rest-house. And
now when he listened hard, he could
bear it breathe. - -
Ned sprang op with a yell of
alarm. But before be could get to
hts feet, the shadow had leaped for
him and was clutching at him with
little kard hands. Ned snatched at
It once. Identified a small naked
man, and cast it away. Then ka
darted for the rest-house.
The events of the next few sec
ends would always be a tangle in
Ned's brain. Panic broke loose;
fear ran in the dark. The silence
exploded into savage shouts, "yells
of fear, gobblings and monkey-like
chattering. The camp was full of
men who ran and dodged, collided
and felL -
Ned tripped over one man. an
other clutched at his legs only to be
kicked away. Yet he gained the door
of the mess-shack, collided with
some one there, and blind to every
thing but the strong will of his
heart, fought his way to Virginia's
room. Nokka was by the door, strug
gling with something that gobbled
and ran. Virginia was caught in
her mosquito-net like a moth in a
web, but she broke through and
their hands met in the darkness.
"Where's your flashlight?"
"On the floor by my bed." i
Still holding her with one hand he
rroped for the light and presently
clutched it. An instant later its
yellow team filled the room.
But GrLUn's rides were all in his
own room. Ned moved to tha door,
Virginia behind him and protected
by his body, the light flung in front.
As it danced into the middle-room
wLere Chambon slept, it burnished
the naked sides of two men just in
the act of leaping out the main door,
and its furthest beam caught tha
whites of a pair of eyes at the win
dow. . .
Ned sprang to the entrance and
swept the camp with his light, but
all it showed was his own men hud
dled in a group by the fire and some
dim running figures that soon disap
peared. In the meantime, Chambon
was getting op from the floor, dazed
but apparently unhurt. Ned heard
him scratch a match, light 'the oil
lamp, and then snick a shell into the
chamber of - his rifle. And the
shadows leaped and cavorted on the
walls as Virginia seized the lamp
and darted into the further room,
where her father slept.
Through the incredible silence
that followed the raid, her voice rose
in a frantic cry. i
-Father Father t Wher are
you?" . ! . :
Before Ned could cross the room,
the girl reappeared at the door, the
light trembling in her hand.
"Father isn't here," she said
in broken tones. "They've carried
him off." !
Until now Ned had been fighting
in a daze. In the violence and terror
of the night attack, grappling with
invisible, things that clutched and
gobbled and ran, he was only an
other savage in the dark. It was his
heart, not his head,' that had driven
him to Virginia's bedside at all
costs. But this news she cried from
the doorway was a concrete thing, a
hard fact to seize and face. AH at
once be was Ned Hoi den, on the job.
"Stay here with Chambon,". he
told Virginia. "Master," and he
called Chambon so without conscious
effort, so suddenly clear was his
mind and sharp ; his thoughts
"guard her with your rifle."
Flashing his light before him,
Ned entered Griffin's room. There
were his clothes over a chair his
rifle in a corner here was the im
print of his head on his pillow. But
the man himself had vanished with
out trace. ( -;
Had he been knocked, unconscious
while he slept and carried off bod
ily? More likely I he had yielded
quietly to overwhelming numbers.
And sensibly too; caught in the mos
quito net was a wicked-looking iron
knife with a carved teakwood grip
and a row of uncut topaz where the
blade joined the hilt.
A clean blade. This was good
news. Kha chieftains carried such
knives ; added proof that the raiders
were Kha savages from the hills.
To spare Virginia, he put the
weapon out of sight; then returned
to her and her lover waiting in the
next room.
As he came through the door, he
was arrested by their faces in the
lamplight, so vivid against the
shadowy background. What a
staunch little soldier was standing
there, stark pale, but swallowing
her sobs, her head up, her shoulders
square. The expression on Cham
bon's face he would never forget.
No bewilderment was there, hardly
even curiosity, but a fateful look . . .
Yes, and a look of dignity, hardly
missing grandeur. A great antago
nist was this man Chambon, a
strong souL A Napoleon might look
like that, after a faithful regiment
had been annihilated to gain one lit
tle rise of ground. .
- The night's raid was no mystery
to Chambon. This fact was plain in
his face. But wild horses would
never drag the truth from him, at
this stage of the affair. This too
was certaia aa the now-breaking
dawn. . '.'.';
Virginia san toward Ned with V
little cry. "Yon haven't found
him."
"Not yet, Heaven-Born." So spoke
TFan. But Ned Holden longed to
kiss the tear mist from her eyes.
"Tell me the truth. I can stand
it. Do you think he's still alive?"
"If they had meant to kill him.
they would have stabbed him while
he slept
"Perhaps they were bandits, tak
ing him for ransom. Doesn't that
seem likely?" s
Her hand went to her heart, aa
she waited his answer. To her this
would .be the least terrible solution
of the mystery. Kidnaping for gain
she could understand ; any other ex- i
planation would be too strange and
sinister to contemplate. But she had
asked for the truth, and Ned knew
he must not deny her. - '
"No, Heaven-Born. The Khas are
not bandits. They have done this
through fear."
He saw her wide eyes sink and
narrow. "Fear of what?"
"I do not know, yet They are a
race of children, given to sudden
panics over nothing. Perhaps Tuan
could tell you."
?"I, TFan?" Chambon demanded.
"I have never seen a Kha before this
trip. Now call up your drivers, and
we'll start at once for' Chieng
khuang to get help from the French. ;
They'll scour these- hills with
troops."
"And what will they find, lord?" ;
Ned's tone was so grave that Cham- :
bon stopped and stared. -
"What do yon mean, T'Fan?"
Virginia broke in.
"The Khas. are a wild, strange
people. If we drive them to panie
with soldiers searching their vil-"
lages, we will never see Griffin Tuan
again. But if let alone, they will :
keep him unharmed until their end
is gained. We must wait till they '
make terms." f
The light was clearing now so
Ned went out to look for tracks in
the dust of the road. At least fifty :
Khas had taken part in the raid, and i
about eight of them had led Griffin
bare-footed, probably at the point
of a knife, across the road and into
the thickets. There the trail was
lost.'. - : .
As he searched, Pn-Bow watched u
with a wooden face. Here was an-
other who knew more than he cared '
to telL
"It was yon who talked to the,
Khas on the road," Ned snapped.!
"Perhaps you can throw some light
on last night's shame."
"The shame was yours alone,",
waa-the bold reply. "You are head
man and protector of the camp. I
have already told my masters the
Khas words." . -
Yes, I am headman." Ned closed
his fist and examined the skin over
the knuckles. "Perhaps you found
it so last night"
A Laotian baron, even though
dressed as a coolie, does not care to
be reminded of a blow in the face.
His dark eyes caught fire and his
hand dived under his jacket. But at
Ned'i wicked little smile, the hand
came out empty. f
"Have mercy, lord," be mur
mured, lowering his head. .
"For the faithful dog, good bones
and a soft hand," Ned quoted from
the old Laotian philosophers. "For
the jackal poisoned meat, lest he
steal the slippers from the door. It
may be, Pu-Bow. that you will soon
be called again to interpret between
the white man and the ivhas.

Grover Giesys Moving '
AMITY The Grover Giesy fam
ily Is moving next week from the
Florence Blair property on Trade
street to near Woodburn.
- - Local prognosticators who have
fairly well hit Jhe Oregon bop pro
duction year In and year out,
opine that the 1938 hop crop in
this state will, run 90.000 bales,
on basis of the present outlook.
This in ' spite of the government
statisticians' prediction that the
Oregon harvest will run 102,175
bales. ", -(.'.;
Although the intense heat and
unusually long drouth show up
some slight damage on the Ore
gon fuggle crop, the early and late
clusters look fine. Late hops,
however, are Just blooming now
and there is possibility if the ex
treme beat continues that it may
cook the blossoms.
' Spots' hop sales In Oregon have'
been nil so far this week, with
only about 350 bales moving last
week at from 10 to 11 cents per
pound. i . -
Chief interest the past week
has centered in new one-year con
tracts under which 500 to 600
pounds of 1938 clusters have been
written up at 18 cents a pound.
At the present time, the Oregon
holdover situation on 1937 hops
runs about ,16,000 bales, while for
the entire coast, about 26.000
bales of 193 7's and about 20.000
bales oM936's and older hops are
held by growers.
