The foreman is heading in this direction
'Okay, pal, Carl said Burn it on
As he jumped to help Don with the weld
Carl felt again that mixture of sad envy and
profound delight with which he had always
viewed his American friends ebullent self
confidence. SO they d can Carl, eh? Well, he'd
quit too and they would Just walk over to
Jobs somewhere else. So what Dance, sparks,
Whistle, Dom Laugh. Pauline!
All, yes Pauline. She was an American girl
and had the same lighthearted attitude. If
Carl told her what was coming, she would say:
The dumbies, Pooh III find you another
job" He loved Pauline He had hoped to
marry her. But now, what could he say to
Pauline?
Sherman
Yes sir
IT WAS Mr.. Maxwell, the foreman Already,
it had come. Mr. Maxwell would tell him
But -
Give Dutch hand, will you?'
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir!''
Don looked up, grinning.
Just lend your hand to him. don't let the
cluck burn it off, Don said.
Carl smiled and hurried down the line to a
more nearly finished fuseage, where MIR.
DeGroot, a tough old Hollander, was sweating
over a difficult spot tweld Mr. De Groot, who
always worked in strange. grim haste,
showed a torch at Carl.
Blister her when | say it so!' he ordered.
she shouldt be alretty in the air Efrybotty
talks too tam much, this stupid country"
Carl faithfully followed instructions touched
by the wheeling frenzy with which Mr..
DeGroot attacked the job He felt comrade-
ship with this gnomelike little man which he
could not share with any of the others, not
even Don Only he and Mr. DeGroot seemed
dead in-earnest at their task; the others had
lesurely. good-humored pace, as if there were
no reason to be serious or to hurry. MIR
DeGroots brother and two young nieCes had
been killed when Rotterdam was bombed.
1T is not stupid country, really" Carl
said when Mr.. DeGroot had finished the
weld. You should not say that, Mr.. DeGroot
A lot of men are telling them lies. That is why
they laugh and Joke and take their time"
ia, like Holland they act Und where iss
Holland now? In jail
"Nazis won't put this country in jail.
Shaking his head, Mr. DeGroOt pointed
down the assembly line with the bit of his
stub pipe. Hear them? Talk, talk, talk - too

But Carl spoke out boldly, to conceal his
fear. Not this country he said. They love
freedom too much. But let them realize their

Carl's mind those three words, Born in
Germany, tormented him. Was the rumor
about the Front Office correct How long
would he have this job? What should he tell
Pauline?
That evening, as soon as Pauline got
through work at a Five-and- Ten in Santa
Monica she and Carl drove up the beach in
his old flivver. The girl had brought picnic
supper. She was in high spirits, chattering
about the Air-Nav employees dance to be

/. .. DOWney
~1ARL SHERMAN heard the rumOr on the
assembly line in Department Fourteen
~ morning shift scarcely half an hour
after Miss Minnie Turlock typed Salesmanager
DOwney'S memorandum to President Ouares
A youngster who drove one OF the electric
donkey trucks unoaded a supply of fuselage
struts at Carls station. He grinned at Old
John, the wipe-up, and said: Hey. john
where were YOU born"
Born" Old John said bemuSed by the
idea Il was born Sure mike. | was born
But where"
In old country, | was born"
In Italy"
Listening Carl felt sick in his heart and
got very busy sorting fuselage members so he
could hide his face. But Don, who was Carl's
partner they were an electric welding team
snapped off his splutering torch and de
Tended Old John. What it to you where he
was born Don sald to the kid on the truck
'Nothn'," the kid said. Only the Front
Office is gonna fire all the guys that was born
in Italy. Russia or Germany, The foremen
deny IT, Dut IL true, all TlSht.
Don grunted skeptcally and jerked dirty
thumb toward the stock room.
You better be hustlin us them cockpit
irons, he said. 'or you'll be the one who gets
canned
The boy on the truck was selfrighteous.
Il Just wanted to tip off Old John. SOS he II
know what to say" he declared.
Old John smiled remembering something
Il am born in Bulgaria he announced Il
keep my job. Sure, sure"
Carl put on his dark glass goggles. He was
afraid that Don might see panic in his eyes
He knew why Don had rebuked that gossipy
kid and loved him for it. But Don S loyalty
affirmed and sharpened the truth 1t was
coming - the thing that he had prayed might
not happen. Bonn IN Germany; three words
that had haunted him. And now the old anger
the old bitterness against the men who had
made his native land country feared and
hated welled up in him His hands trembled as
he bent to put cross brace in position for
Don's torch
Not thing in it, Irish" Don said Just
lot of CAB. Hey. now, Irish -"
1T is true Carl said
They can yopo Nuts They got better
sense than that
Il am not Irish. They know that will not
work here long.
IF you quit, SO do |. pal, They fire the
both of us. We won't lose half days pay,
either, All we do is walk over to Douglas or
Nultce or North American
He did not attempt to tell Don that it
would be the same at the other plants. A
nickname like Irish and an official pay
roll name like Carl Sherman were feeble
disguiscs. His naturalization papers would tell
the truth. He was Karl Schurmann from
SturIndorf in Bavaria He had been in the
United States little more than six years
Because he spoke careful English. without
much accent thanks to early schooling in
London, and because he had dark, curly hair
and bright blue eyes, he passed in a crowd as a
foreigner of vague nationality
LION, knowing the facts had quickly dubbed
him Irish. which was a fine compliment
since Don last name was Ryan. But these
things would not matter Nor could he expect
them to take into account the reasons for his
flight from Germany. Were he a great scientist
or writer yes, that would make a difference.
Such men, and he admired them had made
their opposition to the Nazi regime articulate.
