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

"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

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.

burn said. "Just put them on that
stand.
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."
