across the desk to her employer.

which whirred Impatiently.
"Bevins Construction Company,

She turned from the telephone.
"Jackson's here with jour car, Mr.

The big head with Its shock of

I've got three hours' work ahead of

Morton: I spoke to you some time
ago about the Rio Diablo project.
"In case you've forgotten (strike
that out). To refresh your memory,
about ten years ago, a fly-by-night
realty company conceived the Idea
ot damming the Rio Diablo, a tem
peramental Ftream In south-west
Texas, north snd east ot the Rio
Grande, a particularly desolate re
gion. "The Idea of the dam was all
right, I have ro doubt but what Irri
gation and controlled water supply
will turn It Into one ot the leading
citrus trult sections ot the world.
However, after they'd talked a lot
ot poor suckers (strike thst out)
homeseekers Into Investing their
money in the land; had built a rail
road spur Into the country to carry
these poor . . . ah, homeseekers.
there, they decamped.
"When the affair (put in another
word for affair. Judy) came to my
notice I made a quick trip down
there. I foum about a hundred ot
these homeseekers still there be
cause they didn't bav any place
else to go. They bad sold their old
homes to Invest In this desert land
