upstairs, has that first little
chin-chin with his wife, and
leaves her to go back to sleep
and he goes in the spare room
across the hall and waits a little
while. Then he goes and wakes
her up again. pulls that fake
spiel about him thinking he's
just heard a disturbance below,
and goes downstairs.
"Once he's down there, he
has to work fast, because any
second she might take it in her
head to follow him. And he
does work fast. He stands by
the table with his own gun in
his right hand, picks up the
other gun with his left hand,
the handkerchief still around
the handle, puts the muzzle Of
the other gun against his
breast, pulls the trigger and
goes over dead, with one gun
dropping on one side Of him
and the other gun dropping on
the other. That's the way it

way it could be. And I'll show

Snappy, kid"
We walked east through the
cross street to point approx
mately midway of a solid block
Of old-style "walk-up" tene-
ment houses. Leaving me on
the sidewalk, Bray dived down
into the areaway of one of
these houses, and beyond a
shielding breaStwork of laden
garbage-canS encountered a
frowSy individual who plainly
vas the caretaker-j janitor there.
Gray said something in an
undertone to this person, at
the same time giving him
flash at his badge, whereupon
the janitor blinked and pro-
ducing from his overall pocket

handed it over to Bray and
then, obviously obeying instruc-
tions, 5ided where he was
while Bray went inside the
first-fleor entryway. I saw his
broad shape vanish up the
narrow stairs.
He wasn't gone long-not
longer, I should say, than five
minutes altogether. When he
returned, his coat pockets no
longer bulged.

At the next corner he led
the way into a small, smelly

him, it seemed, and did the

back room, brought two bottles
of beer, promised us privacy,
and went out, closing the door

outsiders to thinking, which is
a thing we don't want, espe-
cially now.
Wife Is Asleep
Anyway, he comes home
and first, very quietly, he lets
himself in by the front door
as usual. There's no sign from
above that his wife has heard
him-She must be sound asleep.
So he gets busy. Wearing
gloves, he gathers up the loose
silverWare and ties it up in a
spare tablecloth and he plants
it on the top Of the table.
'TWould take him too long to
wipe off each piece, so it's a
cinch he's wearing gloves. Still
wearing gloves, he goes and un-
locks that window and raises
the sash and he draws the
French doors open and leaves
'em so. Next he gets the extra
gun from where it's been hid
and he lays it on the table
with that red bandanna wrap
ped around the butt of it. Then
he goes clear outside, out on
the grass probably, and puts
the overShoeS on over his shoes
and muddieS the overshoes up
so they'll leave prints and
comes back and makes all
those tracks that Cronin and
his pal showed us. Then he

probably and certainly for days
past, this poor young fellow
had been framing up his own
finish. He buys overshoes one
place. then goes somewhere
else and buys himself an extra
gun-out Of a hock-shop, it's
more than likely. He smuggles
these things home and hides
them away in some convenient
spot-like-possibly in the coal
hole in the cellar, although as
to that I wouldn't be sure.

IF you want good sidelight on
Il some Of the things that are
wrong with American criminal court
procedure you might read Margaret
Seaton Wagner's horrifying book.
The Monster Of Dusseldorf"
This is a biography of Peter Kur-
ten. who threw the city of Dussel-
dorf into a panic few years ago by
committing nine murders. trying to
commit a score more and battling
the police.
Caught at last, and dragged into
court. Kurten proved prize speci-
men for the pSychiatrists His he
redity and his environment had both
been Of the worst.
In his youth he had served many
years in prison. and had been badly
contaminated there. A woman years
his senior had helped to develop his
horrible taste for uncontrolled hon.
icide.
PsychiatriSts found that he dis
played every type of sexual aber-
ration known 10 pathology. Yet he
was not insane in any sense of the
word. He knew right from wrong,
he was fully responsible for his acts,
he could control his frightful i'm
pulses when and if he tried to: so
the Germans, after a relatively short
business-hke trial. cut his head off.
Read all of this and then i'm
agine how it would have been in
an American court. Imagine how
expensive pSychiatrists would have
taken the stand for the defense, how
clever attorneys would have shed
tears. torn their hair and dwelt ten
derry on his unhappy youth, his
prison life and so on.
We would have had a field day of
oratory. and in the end the man
might have gone TO prison for a few
years. The Germans handle those
things differently.

Workers in the American Red

Mr.. Payne urged the city chapter

Il count on your city to do every
thing in its power to increase mem
bership," the telegram read.
Campaign headquarters reported
the first three 100 per cent firms in
the city. They are the Colonial
Furniture Company with fifty en-
ployes; the Service Spring Com
pany, seventy-f1ve memberships,
and the same number of employees

nual drive. Membership is 81 a
