IN A short time now it would be dusk and
old Pop Hawkins would have to set his red
d lights glowing on the highway. The road
crew had quit work for the day, leaving to
him the task of keeping vigil until dawn over
the excavation, the steam shovel, the tools and
material.
There was furrow in Pops leathery brow
Then he saw car slowly cruising down from
where the highway banked up into the sunset.
Radio police car he knew. Pop stood out
with a red flag in his hand and waved the
car to a stop. Both the officers in the car
were new to this stretch of highway, but Pop
was no man to stand on ceremony.
''Hullo, boys" he said. Here's a nice
kettle of fish. l gone and left my lunch
pail back home, and thought maybe if you
was -"
He broke off abruptly The radio had begun
to chatter.

for dust-oovered car, said the police radio. =.
Watch for dust-covered car -" said the
short wave radio in a machine lurching
through the dusk on the outskirts of Win
tusket
The man behind the wheel, grim-faced,
hat well pulled down, took corner on two
wheels, shot down a narrow alley with a
scream of brakes, and a moment later honked
horn outside small, obscure garage. A man
ran out.
Wash her off," said the man at the wheel.

He nodded. making quick disposition. The
woman in front with the chubby towhead of a
boy. The two little girls in the back.
There, that's fine now" he said. Il feel
quite like family man. All set?"
He sped up the car again, then slowed,
cursing the nervous tension of his foot on
the gas.
Mice night, missus, isn't it? Kind of
pleasant just to amble along"
She didn't answer. He saw the quick look of
terror in her eyes, and cursed himself. He'd
left the gun on the seat. Before he could
shut it off the radio blatted again. Green
sedan, travelling west -"
He snapped it off. The red lights were near
ing rapidly.
Listen" he said, do what l say, and
you'll come to no harm" He glanced ahead
quickly. "All you got to do is to keep your
mouths closed until we get up past the bar
ricade there. Then I'll let you off, Tell the
kids to be quiet, see, and not a peep out of
you - Otherwise ="
He drove quite slowly now, keeping a
steady thirty-fve or forty. 1t was still fairly

There's fve-dollar bill for you if you rush
it. Got an appointment.
20. K, boss"
He called and two men lounging inside
came out and helped In three minutes the car
was sluioed down; in two more it shone with
cleanliness
Thanks, boys"
He tossed a bill over. The car rocketed into
the gloomy canyon of the street, turned left
and zoomed towards the open highway.
Twenty minutes later the radio spoke again:
Calling Car twenty-eight. Car twenty
eight. Wintusket bandit believed heading west
on Wintusket Highway. Believe car has been
washed. Look for green sedan, lone driver,
travelling fast. Stop all suspicious cars .."
The man at the wheel relaxed speed. A
corner of his mouth sagged into grin. They'd
not get him that way. Take it quiet - that
was the thing.
0TRAICHr ahead the road ran towards the
sunset. Far along he fancied he saw the gleam
of red lights. Police barricade or what?
Men at work, perhaps. Likely place for trap
Lone driver, travelling fast" e. . huh? Well,
he'd slowed down; now - his grin spread to
include his whole mouth - what he needed
was window dressing.
The brakes screamed on, eased, came on
again. Just ahead, hudging towards the SUM-
set "a woman and three kids. They'd do.
He leaned out
Going far. missus?"

ahead.
When the last red lantern was in place,
Pop Hawkins came back to where the police
car was drawn up behind the steam shovel
'Fishin' amt been too good, has it," he
quizzed them, and glanced at the road barrier
with its dependent lantern which was swung
out across the right of way. well, here's
another customer for you" He strained his
eyes to appraise the onooming car and
chuclled. That's the third green sedan but
they all seem to run to families. Looks to me
like another of the same Kidney
One of the officers nodded.
Looks like a woman and three kids
Huh" snorted Pop. Il wish -"
But the car was almost up now; it slowed,
then braked to stop.
One of the officers leaned in the window.
Got your license there?"
The driver Tipped open his case.
There you are"
~. K. It's all right, lady, we're not going
to give your husband ticket" Funny how
scared some women got about having their
car stopped by the police. "All right" he sig
nailed, let them by
Pop Hawkins took his hands off the end Of
the road barrier, and walked over to the
drivers window.
Excuse me, mister" he said, but was
wondering would you do me a favor. You
see left my lunch pail back home and ="
1t was then the woman screamed. Because,
with sudden quick motion, Pop Hawkins
had pulled the drivers hat way down over
his eyes.
Get him" sfrilled Pop He's your man."
At the same moment his sinewy old hand
reached for the fellows wrist. A gun fell to the
floor.
Pop Hawkins let the police handle their
man.
He was helping the woman and the three
children out When the handouts were
snapped into place, a slightly breathless
officer of the law confronted the old man.
well, we've got to hand it to you," he
admitted. lust what's the answer"
Pop Hawkins cracked wide and toothless
grin.
His hand rested gently on towheaded
little girl.
Il guess ought to know my own grand

ence, self-indulgence and sheer hail
ness. The virtues which dominated the
fathers of our country, who through
great sacrifice won for us the freedom
and liberty, which we still enjoy, have
been replaced by sophistication and
wise cracking, and we are permitting
crackpots and irresponsible agitators
to insult our constitution and ridicule
our form of government.
We have viewed with indulgence
leaders of movements who frankly de-
clared that they are trying To create
class hatred and race prejudice IN our
midst. and condoned politicians who
are too spineless to protest against
those who are boldly laying the found
atibns for our destruction. The same
tactics INDUCED in in the countries
which they hold up as idealistic would
send them to a concentration camp or
q firing squad.
When such enemies of our country
flaunt their contempt in u faces, the
time has come for every loyal Americ-
an to stand up in his wrath and speak
out as a loyal citizen, particularly as
we are now confronting forces which
threaten our future as a Republic OF
Tree men and women.
Every true American should Wig
orously oppose those whose sole pur-
pose is our destruction and humiliat-
ion, lest we be subjected to the rule of
those who are opposed to the principl-
es of freedom and liberty which were
bought at SO G reat a price, and which
have made America the haven for the
oppressed of all nations.

Patrick Henry's declaration Give
me liberty or give me death" finds an
echo in every true mans heart, no
matter what may be his race, his color
or his creed. This desire for liberty
was planted by the Creator. There

accomplishment and it's fulfillment are
fighting against Gods decree.
To most of us it is a priceless her

our freedom, some of us have forgot
ten the price with which u freedom
was purchased. We have enjoyed lib

carried with it no obligation, and we
have been reckless spendthrifts of u

While we have been enjoying lib
