PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE.; MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, AUGUST 9, 1942. Chapter 41 , Mining Paper RAEBURN (lanced at Delia Stewart. 1 did get the en velop from her," he said, "but I loct them- a block from Har decker' office." Murdock atared at him; so did Tenner. "Someone hit me over the head, When I came to, they were gone." Raeburn - looked at Johu Nason and his eyes were hard and hot "You wouldn't know about that. would you. Mr. Nason?" "I don't know what you're talk' In about." Naion said evenly. "You have many contacts. Men vhn can do odd fobs for vou. Like following me, for instance. I came down Morton Street with that en velope in my pocket and was knocked out within a block of the building." He turned slightly, bringing the gun to bear on the lawyer. "By one of your thugi?" "Nothing of the kind." Nason's voice was loua. u s aosura, i icu vou " . : "Perhaps Til come back to you. Raeburn's gaze moved to Mur dock. "Your wife and I made a bargain. I don't know whether she tricked me or not I had to take a chance." He looked at Joyce. "You didn't tell me I wouia nave u aeai wiui to many people. "You wouldn't have come." ' ""Perhaps not but we'vewasted snougn tune, niven i wet "I'll keep my promise if you'll keen vours." Jovce said. "Agreed. But I'll have to Insist that you fulfill your part first" . Raeburn swung the automatic back ana waitea. The Cable JOYCE asked for a cigarette and while Kent cave her one and held a light she had time to mini ane naa taxen tne cnance. If he wanted that envelope badly enough he might agree. And he had agreed. "If you'll take me to Ward Al len's apartment" she had said, "I'll see that you get it But not unless you 11 teu m in iruin bout why you came her from Caragua all of It.". . There had been mors to the araument than that but she had kept her nerve, insisting that only by taking her to this apartment could he get the envelope. So tney naa come, one naa warned him that Ward and Delia would be here, and Ward had opened the door and they found Thorn dike and Delia on the love seat They had stayed there too, when Raeburn took the automatic from his pocket and the explanations were still in progress when the others had arrived. ... "All right" she said, and met Raeburn's gaze. "1 told you I'd see that you got the envelope. I can t ao tnat. out i nave some' thin lust as food." She heard someone gasp beside her and then Murdock had snatched the roll of pictures from her hand. "Joyce!" he said. He unrolled mem, looxing only at tne first print -wnere am you get tnemr "I had them taken at home." "You had them all the time.1 Re was inrnr now. "You" "I'll take those, please," Rae- ourn saio. Joyce heard him, but continued to her husband. "It was when Delia came to me and told me about the man who wanted them. It looked as though she'd have to give them up, so I had them photographed. . . , You're always doings things like that so I thought I'd better, too." She saw his anger fade and something else touched his glance that might have been respect or simply resignation. "In any case," Dean Thorndlke aid, "it's lucky for us. Good girl." "Bring them here." Raeburn gestured with th gun. Murdock stood up. "Don't hand them to me." Rae E E Mils Margaret Woodruff, nursing consultant for the Amer ican Red Cross for Oregon, will be in Medford Monday, Tues day and Wednesday. While here Miss Woodruff will consult with the local home nursing commit tee of the Red Cross and an ef fort is to be made to stimulate interest in securing more gradu ate nurses to teach home nurs ing classes. Red Cross officials point out that many more doctors will be railed into the armed service which makes it necessary for people to do as much for them selves as possible. The Red Cross has as its objective the training of at least one person In each home to take care of ill nesses in that home. It la pointed out that any grad uate nurse who has been regis tered In any state Is now eligible to teach home nursing classes.

Murdock tossed the photo graphs on th stand and Raeburn moved sideways, his eyes on Fen ner. He reached for the roll, sepa rated the four prints. With alter nating glances, he found the one he wanted: then, suddenly, some thing happened to his face and there was a new brightness in his eyes. He looked at Hestor and then his glance kept moving until it found the telephone stand, ne backed to it, his gun still leveled. Fumbling for the instrument b put It to his mouth. "I would like to send a cable, he said. "Can you connect m with the proper office?" There was a moment of si lence. "Hello. . . . Will you take a cable, please?" Raeburn was watching Hestor now, as well as Fenner. 'To Vasquezella. San Baria. Caragua." He spelled out the words. "Have documentary proof Hestor never legally mar ried to father. Forwarding pa pers registered airmail. . , . Sign that: Raeburn." He listened, answered the op erator's questions, and hung up. He looked long at Hestor and there was no sound in the room. Finally Hestor looked at. Joyce. Raebara Talks "IT WOULD be you," she said. her eyes hateful and her voice pure venom. "You nosy little idiot" Joyce felt Kent's hand on her shoulder, his quick, reassuring pressure. Then Raeburn spoke again. . 'Thank you. I should not be concerned with Mrs. Clarke's re mark." "Mrs. Clarke?" Hester's eyes blazed. "Yes." Raeburn glanced at her, his smile tipped with scorn. He looked at Joyce. "You have kept your part of our bargain and I will keep mine. It has to do with my estate in San Baria and Mrs. Clarke. We have always hated each other I need not go into that but our trouble hero was political rather than personal. "As in so many South Ameri can countries there has been a steady infiltration of Germans and Italians in the past Ave or six years. They settled, established schools, became important In business and agriculture. Over a period of time they consolidated their gains until at the time of th invasion of Holland, they very nearly controlled the coun try itself." He looked at Ward Allen. "Mr. Allen knows something of that So did Perry Clarke. And by that time we were all aware of our danger. We set out to re-establish ourselves and found that they were more solidly entrenched than we had suspected. There were Nazi sympathizera in the army and police forces; they owned a broadcasting company and a newspaper. When we those of us whose country it was became too aggressive there were economic reprisals and threats. Only very recently have we been able to bring some of th real agitators to trial. How ever" . His glance moved across the room and he shrugged. "The de tails are unimportant and to un derstand the rest of it I mutt tell you something of this estate of ours." H went on to describe the property. "Strategically it ta the most important location within several hundred miles. A few well placed guns and planes the polo Held was made to order and it would become a key point for an Invader. I did not know mv father had left It to Mrs. Clarke until he had died: I did know whv this syndicate of Nazi sympathizers wanted it" His smile was twisted as he stopped speaking for a moment Te be ceaUnaed Anyone Interested Is asked to contact the Red Cross office. Nurses are urged to take this responsibility upon themselves without waiting for the organi zation to make the contact. Ap pointments with Miss Woodruff can be made while she Is in Mcdford. London, Aug. T. 0T) A strong force of RAF bombers last night attacked the big Ger man industrial center of Duls burg, target of repeated raids in July, and other points In the Ruhr valley, the air ministry announced today. Nazi airdromes In the low countries also were attacked by British raiders, six of which failed to return from their night missions, a communique said. The size of the strong force was not disclosed officially but a British source said that in the days before the British hurled more than 1.000 bombers against Germany In a single night, last night's total would have been considered "a whopper."
