"That's a very poor Idea. It
would bo better to permit no ono

until tho directive Is found."
Brit narrowed hl eyes. "I think
I know what you'ro hinting at."
"I'm hinting nt nothing apcclfl

"Maybe tho aafe waa left open

whether I auapected anyone par
ticularly, I'd put Into effect that
order I suggested a llttlo whllo

cially that tho Dnnton-Moth plane
should not be allowed to leave."
She swallowed hard.
.TIRIT looked at his watch. Then
1 ha gathered up all tho papers,
Both'i notoa included, and put
them Into tho safe. "Be auro the
doors are closed," he said to her.
She made certain. Ho motioned
her to his side. In a whisper, ho
aid, "I'm changing tho combina

It was difficult te memorize the
new combination. Hero was proof
that he atill trusted her.
