I felt my pocket, and the room
reeled. The knife was gone. l re-

hand in the rose arbor to cut d
rose.
you forget, Mr.. Strickland, that
you are at a party" Captain NC
Donald said casually. "Of course
YOU wouldn't have your knife IN

THAT will be ALL" said the cor

to another member of the party, pc

Alfred was killed!
The questioning proceeded. II
was a dreary test of nerves, seem
ingly endless. Arrival of the heafse
was a welcome interruption.
1t was not necessary to carry n
sheet-covered corpse back through
the main clubroom in order to
reach the front door, but that was
the way it was done. Perhaps n
coroner wanted to test u a

the sheet. Muriel Benson gave a
choking gasp and tainted again.
Jerry called for water to revive

though r%eassuring the inexperi'

here"
The waitress backed out of the
room with a frightened, Eyes, SIR

ately, dressed in a long dirty once
white apron and wearing a cloth
cap on his head. The two mattresses
looked timidly over his shoulders.

lump in his throat.

Churchill Reported
Seeking Friend|ier
Approach 10 Soviet
Holifox ToIk With Envoy
Nay Pave Way to Renew
Trade Negotiations
~ the Associated Press.

LONDON, May IL. - Winston
Churchill's new win-the war gov
ernment was said by a reliable
source today to oe seeking a new
and more friendly approach" to I'M
provement of relations with Soviet
Russia.
Inclusion Of the Labor and Liberal
parties in the new cabinet was said
to have paved the way for aban-
donment Of the so-called stiff
necked" attitude toward the U. S.
s. r., credited to former Prime
Minister Chamberlain and most Of
his Conservative regime.
A softening of press attacks al
ready has been noted.
Russian Ambassador Ivan Maisky
saw Lord Halifax, foreign secretary,
on Thursday, and 1t is understood
they discussed problems raised by
British contraband control-princi-
pally delays in shipping and how to
shorten them.
It was limited that this discussion
might open the way for trade nego-
tlations on a broader basis, and
ultimately lead to an improvement
in political relations between the
two countries.
A few days before Mr.. Churchill
took over as Prime Minister, May
10, Russian circles here said Brit
aims entire attitude toward reach
ing a trade agreement with the
Soviet was regarded as "unsatisfac-
tory"
Concerning the new governments &
attitude, however, it was recalled
that Mr.. Churchill, in a broadcast
address March 80, declared that
there is no need for Russia to be
drawn into this struggle" unless
she desires it.
Other members of the new gov
eminent have limited at desire
to WOO Russia away from Germany.
The Liberal leader, Sir Archibald
Sinclair, who later became air
minister in the Churchill cabinet,
urged on October 26, 1899, that Brit
ain take vigorous initiative" to
improve trade and political relations
with Russia.
Lord Halifax on that same date
in measure condoned the Russian
move into Poland after the German
invasion by saying that the Soviet
step would never have been taken
If Germany had not acted first.
Clement r. Attlee, Lord Privy
Seal in the new cabinet, said as long
ago as 1887 friendly word for
Russia, asserting that, united,
France, Britain and Russia could
form a force which would make
any would = be aggressor think
twice." He urged such a union.
