CHAPTEH 14 MARS Tom and the Mars King climbed into the tiny space shop. There was scarcely room for the two of them to sit with their knees hunched up and their arms hug ging their sides. Tom was too excited to care about his uncomfortable position. As for the King, he felt that rid ing in a space ship was much more comfortable than whirling through the sky as a flying saucer. He still wore his space suit and said he would never take it off. Santa showed them how to oper ate the ship. Then he slammed the door. Tom and Majesty looked out through tiny windows and waved to all the Santa Land folks. "Goodbye! Come back soon!" shouted the little people. Then Tom pressed a button and the space ship loomed into the air. In an instant they were far above Santa Land. Tom peered out the window. He could see the whole Atlantic ocean. It looked like a small lake. Next to it was America and on the far side of America was the Pacific ocean. He could see it all quite plainly. Then he was too far away to see clearly and the whole world was just a ball spinning below him. Presently they approached an other ball. It was orange and had eyes and mouth like a man. At first Tom was irigmenea to ee such a face in the sky. But sud denly he knew it was only the moon. r v On end on thev went. They passed many stars glittering in the skies. Before long mey ap proached Mars itself. Look!" cried Tom. "we are going to land!" Sure enough, tne snip guaea gently to the surface of the planet and came to a stop, torn pressea a button and the door of the ship flew open. Tom stepped out lnio a lano stranger than any he ever dreamed of. There was neither tree nor bush nor flower. No grass. Not even a weed. Running through the bar- rent around were streaks of yel low. Tom dropped to his knees and ran his fingers along a yel low streak. When he looked up his eyes were wide with .wonder. 'Gold! ne wnisperea. us goiu dust!" The Mars King nodded sadly. "That's the worst part of our plan et. Wherever we look we find that awful sold dirt." "But," cried Tom, "you are rich bevond compare! Gold is money "Money? There is no such thing on Mars. What we would like is grass and trees and daisies. We hnvA no need for sold!" Tom looked around and saw that in truth it was a drab end lone some land. To make matters worse it was neither dark nor light but a sort of perpetual gloom halfway between night and day. "If nothing grows here how do you get food to eat'' asxeo torn. "We make our food out of chem icals." said Majesty. "We pack vitamins and minerals and other things into capsules and that is what we eat. "Goodness, it must be pretty horine." said Tom. Majesty nodded. "I suppose it is. But we have never had any other way of eating and this seems eood enough to us. "It is very strange," said Tom suddenly. "What is so strange?" "Well, you people have invented such remarkable things line turn intf men into flying saucers and packing meals into capsules. Yet you never invented any toys Doesn't that seem strange to you?" The King nodded. "Yes, it is surprising. But perhaps it's be cause we have never had a Sanla Claus on Mars." He took Tom s hand. "Come now I will show you the kings' palaces. They lie just be yond the golden hill." They climbed the solid gold hill v..,--' l and when they reached the top could see boys and girls standing they saw below row after row of idly in the golden courtyards, splendid palaces. Every palace These children were the rulers was made of solid gold. of Mars. Even from where he stood Tom I (Tomorrow: The Kings of Mars.)

Army Rejects Crane Bids WASHINGTON IP Army Engi neers have rejected all bids for a 30-ton gantry crane for use at The Dalles Dam on the Columbia River, Secretary of the Army Ste vens said Monday. In a letter to Sen. Kuchel (R Calif.) Stevens said the action was taken because specifications "con tained ambiguities and require ments which made full compliance difficult and uneconomic." A German manufacturer, Amer ican Ligarian Co., was low bidder on the crane with an offer of $102,146. Universal Granehoist and Monorail Co. of San Francisco was second at $133,627. Kuchel had requested a review of the bidding after receipt of a protect that American firms could not compete with foreign countries where lower wages are paid. REDS HL'RL ACCUSATIONS . SEOUL If!

The charges were raised at a meeting of the secretaries of the UNC-Red joint military armistice commission at Panmunjom. DO YOUR SHOPPING WHERE i SANTA DOES HIS OWN! By JACK GAVER United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK (UP) Television stays pretty close to the script when it comes to Christmas, but it does make an off-beat gesture occasionally, and one of them seems worthy of comment. For example, who but the TV people would dream of casting so bloodstained a tragedienne as Ju dith Anderson, famed for her fiery Medea and scheming Lady Mac beth, as a reader of fairy tales for the Christmas moppet audience? That is going to happen at 5 p.m. Christmas Day during the sixth an nual "Christmas Hour of Story and Song" program on the CBS net work. The star, who was last seen on TV handing daggers to Macbeth (Maurice Evans) and urging him to have at the king, is going to read Hans ennsuan Anaersen s ine Little Match Gril" and have a fine time doing it. "I've been typed eo long In the theater as a 'heavy dramatic ac tress," she said, "that I look for ward with delight to this new 'role.' Actually, I have had 'ama teur' experience in this line, read ing stories to my children.
