ADMIRALUPHAM
 WAS GREETED BY
 JAPAN EMPEROR
Goodwill Visit of American Commander; Police Head
 Taken as Spy

Tokio, May 9.-(UP)-Emperor Hirohito received Admiral Frank B. Upham, commander in chief of the American Asiatic fleet to-day while former Los Angeles police chief revealed his arrest as a spy suspect.
 The humanly contrasting inci- dents were coincident with natural Japanese interest in the impending mass flight of AZ American navy seaplanes from Hawaii to Midway island-1,2O miles out towards Japan.
 Admiral Upham, with his flag ship the cruiser Augusta, arrived at Yokohama May 3 on a goodwill visit particularly significant be- cause of its timing with the Pacific maneuvers of the great United States battle fleet. It has been called a hostage" visit.
 Much Cordiality
 The audience was marked by great cordiality. The emperor ex- pressed his happiness to receive q visitor from friendly nation. Ad- miral Upham expressed his pleas ure at the honor paid him in the emperor's personal reception.
 The latest American to fall an innocent victim to the prevailing vigilance against possible espion- age was M. A. Pierce, former poe lice commissioner of Los Angeles.
 Pierce revealed to-day that he had been arrested at Kobe and kept under police supervision for il days. He was dismissed with Q 30 yen ($S.55) fine for technical violation of the severe laws against photographing fortified areas.
 What Pierce Said
 Pierce said that he was photo- graphing fellow passengers while they played deck games aboard the liner Tatsuta on which he was q passenger. Unknown to him the liner was passing through a forti- fed areas, he said, and he snadver. tentiy snapped a warship.
 There was tactful silence both in official circles and in newspapers regarding the mass seapiane flight to Midway Isiand--perhaps, in the nowspapers' case because of Ads mirai upham's friendly visit.

walked on and did not look back.
When Ann reached the apartment
she threw her coat across q chair
and dropped her hat on top Of it. The
long feather was beginning to look
the worse for wear. I've been talking
with Bill, Mollie."

just called. Wants you to call him
at the once. You must have left
him in an ugly mood"
Ann went to the phone. II told
him he was q crybaby and walked
off before he could slap me-" Her
finger was q little unsteady rs she
dialed the number.
Bills voice was low, tense. I've
got to get this straight" he said.
What are you going to do about
Lee?"
Nothing" Ann said, evenly.
But you've got to do something.
You've got to make q clean break
or give him o chance to straighten
things out"
IT thought had" She paused.
Mollie's portable was clicking away
at something for tomorrow's column.
What do you want me to do, Bill?"
II want you to give him break"
Suppose don't?"
There was a moments silence.
Then: "Well, make up your mind;
will you or won't you?"
Don't shout, Bill :" She pressed
the phone against her mouth. Listen
to me a minute :" Her voice
was low. shaky. Remember the day

there was no answer, and she went

1T hasn't done any good, Bill. -
Only the chatter Of Mollie's type
writer broke the silence. A full minute
she waited, her whole body trembling,
before she heard the wire 60 dead.

you two are concerned that will prob
ably be the end Of It,"
Ann brought the coffee pot from the
kitchen, filled Mollie's cup and set the
pot on the floor. They haven't made
any progress, suppose7"
Hmm" Mollie set her cup down
slowly. AT least they think they
have. Ny opinion wasn't asked and ]
didn't offer it. but they're on the

Ann leaned forward. 'Not-not

mo. Deane."
They stared at each other in silence
until at last Mollie's eyes dropped TO
her plate. They've found Deane had
key to Thurman Wells apartment.
The point is that he could have
planted all the evidence they found
there. including the piece Of wire, the
forged note and the diary" Suddenly
she looked up. Il feel wretched, Ann.
When I started this thing I thought I
was hard enough 10 see 1t through.
Now I've got to 60 on being friendly

You'll have to put my dinner in
the oven, children" Mollie announced.
I'm wanted ut police headquarters"
It was after IL when Mollie re-
turned. Rita was taking q bath. She
was singing and her mufiied voice was
badly OF key, as usual. Ann was cud-
died up in chair reading.
Mollie's "HelloI" was not as CHEEKY
as she meant it to be. She went into
the bed room to take on her hat and
:oat and came back rubbing her hands.
Getting cold" she said.
Ann went into the kitchen and light
ed the oven. Presently she came out
with tray.
Never mind" Mollie said. I'll
take 1t on my lap. :. Come sit down
by me-"
Ann settled on the couch. She knew
what was coming.
You and Rita are in the soup,
Ann, but there's nothing to get up
set about. Selma named the whole
crowd that went to the rejecting
pool"

Mollis looked up. Is he coming out
Of it,"
Il don't know" Ann said. Quietly
she went into the bed room and closed
the door and fell across the bed, face
down in the covers.

Lees wire was delivered ut the Cen
sus once the afternoon of the next
day. He was flying to Boston on the
18th to address q society Of aeronau-
teal engineers and would come on to
Washington the night Of the 18th or
the morning Of the 18th. 1t was i'm
perative that he see her. he said. and
he wondered If 1t would be possible for
her to meet him in Boston.
At supper Ann showed the wire to
Mollie. Mollie threw up her hands
and shouted: Its a pc rty! E. Well

hand and have grand time. You
won't mind, will you. Ann? Well come

She got up quickly and carried the
tray to the kitchen.
Ann delved In her memory for the
still vivid picture Of that group stand

could not be sure as to the relative

Bill paid the bartender and said,
Let's get out Of here"
They were turning into Thirteenth
street when Bill ended the long
silence.
See here, Ann. Have you and
Lee had bust?"
Ann counted her steps +. 10, 10,

California, didn't you?"
Sure, I did. He dropped by the

You didn't" He groaned. You're
