CHAPTER FOURTEEN

MORE SWIFTLY than any ges-
ture given, any word spoken, dur
ing this period in which Jack had
come and gone again, the presence
of the third person in the car
sealed Sarah Anne's fate. It put her
on the outside. It did not matter
that the woman with Jack was his
mother. Or maybe it mattered
more.
She would think of that later. At
the moment it was enough to know
that there was no place in his car,
in his life, for her. She was being
very foolish, standing there in the
moonlight, at the curb, in her silly
blue and gold and white dirndl
dress. She wished someone would
say something. For if no one did,
she would go thinking crazy sem
fences reminding herself that
Jack had come thousands of miles
by air, and then, by taking a few
steps and opening his arms to an
other girl, had gone so far away
she never could reach him again.
Not that she wanted to. No
woman wanted a man who had
smiled his farewell. Not that! But
how could one trust love, count on
life?
and you'll excuse my forget
fulness and go with us another
time, won't you, Sally Anne dear ?"
Judy was saying in low voice,
and Sarah Anne knew that some
explanation of the presence of Mrs.
Courtney must have been given
She had not heard it.
More words were said. She start
ed back to the house. Then Jack
opened his door and followed her.
The walk curved halfway to the
parsonage veranda, and there were
rose bushes in clump there, plant
ed years before by a minister's
wife who loved privacy. Tonight
the firefiies were thick and the
scent of the flowers, dropping with
full blossoms, was heavy and
warm.
At the rose bushes Jack caught
up with Sarah Anne. His hands
were firm on her arm. Sarah
Anne, what's the matter? Tell me-"
There was no denying the worry

in the low voice.

much about Bernice.
"Sure, honey?"
He wanted to believe that. He
didn't want to assume the sense of
responsibility for her unhappiness.
Yet he couldn't shift it to another
If it was rightfully his. All his life
he had been honest. All his life he
would be that way.
very sure" she Led again, so
the blue eyes would clear and the
frown that drew his brows together
would go away.
Good girl! And don't worry
about her. Remember, if you need
help, you'll always have me-" He
patted her hand, grinned, went
around the bend.
Always have me. He was the
one thing she did not have.
A mail plane was passing over
head and she stood on the lawn
watching it. Jack, Bob, Judy could
go in pursuit. But she, who wanted
to escape entanglements more than
any OF them, must walk quietly the
earth paths. She said a prayer,
Wordless one, and went in the side
door, so she would not have to an

= raiding party to destroy the New
foundland air base.
What would be our attitude toward
such . carrying of the war into the
Western Hemisphere? Go q little
further with this line Of thought and
suppose that the Germans, hav'n ng
seized the Newfoundland base,
turned 1t to their own use and car
ried out series Of air raids against
Canadian aircraft factories and mu-
nitions plants, as they would be per-
fectly entitled to do. They could
hardly hope to maintain themselves
in such a position very long, but in
short time they might do q great
deal Of damage-the expectations Of
advantage would be well worth the
risk Of the loss of their small raiding
force. What would be the effect Of
such German conduct on our pres
ent neutral position?
It Is well to review In advance the
possibilities that may arise from the
new orientation given to American
policy by the action of Congress. We
have taken step which may be Of
material assistance to one set Of bel
ligerents and of proportionate mate
rial injury to the other. That the
course We have chosen to follow Is
right or wrong, 1t is not my purpose
here to argue, but rather to point out
certain developments and certain
consequences which may arise there
from, and for which we should be
prepared. -.

effect of the repeal Of the American
arms embargo on states now neutral,
as well as on the British and French
peoples, has certainly been adverse
to German interests, and from their
point of view requires to be Offset by
demonstration of the difficulties
of making deliveries Of American
planes.
Another method of delivery which
has been suggested is that Of flying
the planes directly across the At
lantic Ocean. The British govern
ment has built a huge air base on
the island of Newfoundland, which
can serve admirably as a jump-of
spot for such flights. But such an
attempt would raise new series of
problems. The German air force
would certainly attempt to intercept
such airplanes in fight.
At the moment, Newfoundland is
quite defenseless If the Germans
can send battleship to sea they can
also send fast transport carrying

since their effort is to preserve peace

This is important, because the lnal

does not depend on the munition Tor Is

We, therefore, should respond OBJ

HOLSTEIN BOND

Second And Third

NEW YORK, Sept. 15-Property

The apartments. at present un-
der the management Of Norgen-
stern mortgage company, it is al
legged through a ruling of Supreme
Court Judge Church, is being held
from the bond holders illegally. The
property is bringing in. rental of
several thousands dollars annually
and it is the hope of Attorney Hugo
Rogers who is handling the case to
have the original bondholders col
lect this rent.
Must Pay Interest
In ruling in favor of the bond
holders who stood a chance to lose
their investment Judge Church has
also ordered the Morgenstern insti-
tuition to pay an interest Of $500.
The attorney charged that the mort
gage company has been collecting
the rents from the building for
several years, an amount almost
sufficient TO pay off the mortgages
but still claims default OF the prin-
cipal and interest on the mortgage.
The hope of the bondholders now
is to throw the property in the
hands of a receiver and have the
rents collected and turned over to a
trust in their favor. They are await
ing the ruling of Judge Church on
this latter plan.
