CHAPTER 10

q
Raquel found 1t a relief to
be back in New York.
Jerry's people had received
her cordially. They had ac-
cepted her as one OF their own.
She felt, though, that they re-
sented her difference from
their mold. Even the beauty
they were forced to admit
seemed q matter of suspicion
70 them, of intrusion. Secretly,
she knew, the women among
them envied her this supreme
gift Of the sex. just as she
could see spontaneous admira-
tion Of it. properly cloaked, in
the eyes of the men.
Jerry's mother she adored.
Jerry and his mother had
entered into an open con-
spiracy to confound these stiff
Tipped traditionalists to the
limit Of Raquel's might. They
took delight in seeing eyelids
fly open and mouths form a
quickly-suppressed 20. K"
Il already love you, my
daughter" the fine old lady in
the big white house whispered
to Raquel between her fare
wells. But If you will keep
my boy happy. If you will make
him a good wife,. I shall come
as near adoring you as it is
allowed humans to adore one
another"
Raquel was glad Jerry's
mother had not imposed love
into her bargain. AS it was,
she could promise truly that
she would fulfill the trust this
mother gave into her keeping.
But lovel That she could not
promise. She did not have it
to give--had never had it. The
Potter had left Love out of the
alchemy of her making.
Pancho was as when they
left him. Environment-what
it could do to people-for OF
against them!
Raquel brushed Pancho's
brow with the first kiss she
could ever remember ever to
have passed between them
when she found him alert ano
full of graceful speeches upon
their return.
Pancho hid it very skillfully
but Raquel knew he was as
startled, as embarrassed, over
the impulsive kiss as was she.

CHAPTER /

During Robin Dale's stay. in
California, as correspondent for
the Daily Journal reporting the
famous Donahue Case, two mys-
terious murders took place. De
scriptions Of them appeared on
the front page of practically
every newspaper in this coun-
try as well as abroad, because
of the international regulations
of the victims and Of those who
became enmeShed in the cases
during the Investigations.
Robin Dale's association with
these Investigations and the
unique methods through which
he arrived at the solutions of
the mystery surrounding both
affairs following Immediately
upon his sensational expose in
the Donahue affair added an
international flavor to a repu-
tation of crime-detection al

The first of the two mys-
teriouS murders was that which
became known as the GLADDEN.

Dale had been making his
home with Rex Forsythe in
Beverly Hills, and was launch
ing preparations for his return
to the East, when he received
word of the GLADDEN. tragedy.
Dale and the famous author
were having breakfast. From
the little room in the west wing
of the beautiful Riviera-type
home, set on a hillside in the
north portion of Beverly, Dale
gazed out over Hollywood bask-
ing like a huge toy-town in the
morning sunlight. The stately
Sierra Madras Mountains in
the distance added to the magic
of the scene. To the west the
blue Pacific cleaned from be,
hind the housetops of Santa

The reporter had scarcely fin
ished expressing regret at be-
ing obliged to leave such a
vacation paradise when the
telephone summoned him. It
was Capt. Eugene Sommers,
chief of detective. of the Los
Angeles police department, with
whom Dale had struck up a
sincere and lasting friendship
during a brief but thoroughly
exciting association.

STATE FARMERS
'HO-HUM' LECCE
MEETING HERE
Apathy, Reaction to U. S.,
Chiefs Plea for Less
Wheat Production.

Unconcern as to whether they will
raise more or less wheat is appar-
ent among Indiana farmers as fed
eral agriculture leaders plan a CON-
ference here Friday to discuss re-
duction in acreage.
From opinions of Indiana farm
leaders it appeared today that
Chairman Alexander Legge of the
federal farm board, and lis pro-
posal of a reduced wheat acreage as
the sole means of salvation for the
grain farmer, will not be taken
seriously IN this state this year.
Legge and Arthur M. Hyde, Sec
rotary of agriculture, are scheduled
to meet with extension directors, re-
search men and county agents at
the Claypool here Friday to discuss
the problems.
Many Unconcerned
although the question is being
discussed pro and con, many Indi-
ana farmers will not give the queS-
ton of reduced acreage a thought"
B. B. Benner, secretary-treaSurer of
the Indiana Farm Bureau wheat
pool, declared today.
Legge, however, believes farmers
all over the country r doing a lot
of thinking these days and are
aware their present unhappy con-
dition is a result Of unregulated
production, according to informa-
ton from Washington.
President William H. Settle, In
diana Farm Bureau, said: II don't
think the conference will have much
effect on Indiana farmers"
Wheat All They Have
About all southern Indiana farm
ers will have this year is their
wheat. This is expected to keep
grain growers Of that section from
welcoming any reduction proposal.
With the whole state now har-
vesting its largest wheat crop in
years, it is likely Legge's proposal
will meet apathetic reactions in all
farm sections.
Farm bureau officials report the
largest %deliverage in proportion to
acreage in many years, and state
that Indiana wheat this year is
practically all first class.
The meeting Friday was called by
G. Warburton, head of extension
bureau, United States department of
agriculture, and will bring extension
directors, economists and editors
from several midWestern states here.
