no occasion for passing these last two
laws if there had been universal rec

Receipt of the full text of the May
Day manifesto of the International
Federation of Trade Unions reveals
world labor as strongly opposed to
war as ever but firmly convinced that
the workers of all democratic ma
tions now have no alternative but to
support the war against Hitler to the
utmost.
sIn no country, either belligerent
or neutral" the manifesto says, "did
the organized workers want war. They
felt no joy when the forces of free
dom finally took up the challenge Of
Hitler and Stain in 1889 and replied
to their aggression by force of arms.
'The workers organizations" the
manifesto adds, shave for long de-
manded that all the democracies
should pursue a more resolute and
courageous policy in the face of the
impudent blackmail and brutal in
timidation of the relationships. They
demanded-while there was still time
to put this policy into effect--the COM
plete union of all the forces which
stood for peace, freedom and the rule
of law. If their voices had been
heard, the war would have been
avoided, and peace could have been
saved on the basis of law and justice.
The I. F. I. u. manifesto goes on to
point out that vacillations and con-
tradictions of divergent interests,
both within the individual nations and
on the international plane, prevented
effective and energetic" action from

DANGER IN DISUNITY

Internal warfare weakens organ
lied labor and tends to arouse public
hostility.
1t makes for state of the public
mind that will approve of repressive
legislation and other anti-union ac-
ton.
In plain words, internal warfare is
playing with fire. Great numbers of
organized workers are realizing this
more and more keenly.

now. Although they couldn't zee
the Nazi planes, they knew they were
there. Tracer bullets streaked like
comets through the air, bracketing
their plane.
Ship Is Badly Hit.
Rene put his ship into dive.
Cameron could tell this by the sing
ing Of the wind against the struts.
Suddenly Bill, who was leaning for
ward against the front Of the pas
senger cockpit, started to unbuckle
his safety belt.
"Rene's hit!" he shouted at Claire.
I'm climbing over and taking con-
troll. When I signal, 60 over the
side. Good luck and God bless
you'll"
Claire reached out her numbed
hands to hold him back, but he al
ready was out Of reach. She FUN
bled with her safety belt and finally
got the snaps open
The plane had been diving out
Of control, but quickly now 1t righted
itself. Leaning forward, Claire saw
by the dim light from the instru-
ment board that Bill had taken the
stick.
Instinctively he ducked as q burst
Of machine gun bullets swept the
ship. He was tugging at Rene and
had him half out of his seat while
his feet braced the stick on an even
keel.
Claire Balls Out.
Claire saw that he had the wound
ed Frenchman in his arms. and then
he sfgnaled her It was unmistak-
able his gesture. His thumb went
up and then over the side, and she
knew the plane must have been
struck In q vital spot.
Taking q deep breath the girl
climbed onto the seat and poised
for a moment on the edge of the
plane. Breathing a prayer she let
60 and automatically began to count
as she hurtled down, down. She had
counted 20 before she realized why
she was counting, and then she
tugged at the ring Of the parachute
which was on her breast.
She knew she was falling. It
was a terrible feeling, like night
mare in which she seemed to be
tumming of the edge of the world.
Then there was a violent wrench,
and she felt as If her shoulders were
pulled out Of joint. But blessed re-
lief! She had stopped falling! She
was floating in the air and dimly
above her she could see the white
inner side OF the parachute billow-
ing out, catching the air!
A vagrant thought flashed through
her mind as she hoated between the

| grasped 1t firmly His palm was
warm against the back Of her cold
hand, and a pleasant feeling Of COM
fort went through her.
She looked up at him and smiled,
and her lips formed the words: Il
love you, Bill" He smiled back at
her, suddenly leaned forward and
kissed her lips.
Meanwhile, the plane was streak
ing toward France at better than
200 miles an hour. How Rene had
spotted the enemy planes neither
Cameron nor Claire could imagine.
1t was completely dark now, and the
stars were like a spangled ceiling
above them. High In the air-they
were more than $4,000 fcet-it was
as clear as crystal, and getting
steadily colder.
Pursuers Are Lost.
Claire huddled down in her seat,
hugging herself with her arms, try
ing to keep any warmth there was
left In her body.
Cameron heard Rene's voice sud-
denly through the phone, and there
was note of elation as he told him
he had outdistanced the fleet that
had tried to intercept him.
We're not out of the woods yet,
though" he added. They'll prob
ably have another gang waiting for
us along the line. All we can do is
trust to luck"
Rene dropped the plane down to
about 5000 feet and leveled off. It
was too cold at the higher altitude.
Ice had begun to form on the tips
! of his wings. and he dared take no
chances on slowing his speed.
For an hour they raced along
without incident, Bill and Claire
rejoicing at every mile they put be-
| hind them, for each mile brought
them that much closer to safety.
It was more comfortable at the
lower altitude, but Claire still shiv-
cred.
Were 225 miles toward Paris, !"
Rene called into his mouthpiece, and
Cameron smiled as he answered,
Good work, Rene!"
Pursuit Is Renewed.
For 10 minutes more they shot
through the air. and then Rene
suddenly started into a steep climb.
Just as I expected" he shouted.
They're after us again!"
How do you know" Cameron
shouted back.
Cant you hear them?" Rene
called.
Cameron strained his ears, remov-
ing his earphones, but he could hear
nothing. He decided that Martin
must be possessed of sixth sense,
which he had read somewhere every
good flyer must have.
Even Claire was aware of the dan
ger, however, few minutes later.
Rene had climbed higher and higher
until her ears ached, and then she
heard faint rat-a-tat-tat.
Machine guns!" she screamed at
Cameron, and he leaned toward her
and nodded.
If we have to go overheard. re-
member the count-10 business" he
shouted. BE sure to clear the ship
before you pull your chute cord"
Claire nodded that she understood.
Both of them could hear the omi-
nous rattle Of the machine guns

CHAPTER "a.

Rene Martin, again in his Nazi
flying uniform, tossed down two
parachutes to Claire and Bill and
while they helped each other adjust
the straps snatched the opportunity
for cigarette.
Soon the girl was climbing into
the rear cockpit, Cameron helping
her. and then he crawled up and
took the second seat beside her
During this time Rene was keeping
up a running fire of conversation.
Afraid I wasn't going to make
1t this time" he said. "A plane
picked me up shortly after I passed
the line--I crossed in broad day.
light, but I wanted to get here
before dark if I could. TOO risky
trying to land among all these trees
without some light"
'"You mean you were followed?"
Cameron exclaimed
Eyes. Another Messerschmidt ship
like this one have. Apparently
he'd been hanging around waiting
for me-there must be a leak some
where in Paris. I had a time get
ting away from him and he almost
clipped me before I did lose him
A tracer bullet whizzed past my
ear so closely I could almost feel
it. I finally lost him over the
mountains"
Hope he's not still hanging
around" Claire said nervously as
she adjusted her safety belt.
"All right, folks, here we go!'
Rene cried, and speeded up his
motor for the takeoff. THAT fellow
may still be around somewhere
Anyway, I'm going very high. Better
chance to dodge in the clouds"
Take to the Air.
There was a breath-taking mo-
ment as the ship skinned over the
ground and it appeared that they
surely wouldn't clear the tops of
the trees surrounding the clearing
but at the last second Rene pulled
back sharply on the stick and the
plane scared upward with room to
spare.
1t was cold and Claire huddled
down in the cockpit, protecting her
face as much as possible from the
rush of air as Rene climbed higher
and higher. Then for some time
the movement of the ship was gentle
even. She couldn't hear Rene and
Bill talking because she had no ear
phones, but she knew they were
talking.
Suddenly Rene put the ship
which had been cruising along at
about 5000 feet, into a sharp climb
"Nazis!" he exclaimed. Not one
this time-a dozen. MY pal went
out and got his friends!"
They're after us?" Cameron
asked.
Eyes. Be sure your safety belts
are secure. I may have to do some
acrobatics. If we have to bail out
I'll give the signal"
Cameron couldn't see that any,
thing could be gained by shouting
the information Rene had just given
him into the ear of the girl at his
side, but she sensed something was
wrong when he reached over and
examined the fastenings Of her
safety belt.
Anything wrong?" she screamed
Bill Comforts Claire.
He shook his head, but she knew
he wasn't telling the truth His
face beneath his helmet and goggles
was too grim. Nervously she claspeo
the bag containing the remnants
of the food Frau Weber had given
them and to which she had clune
as she climbed into the plane.
What is it, an enemy plane?'
she shrieked, her lips almost touch.
Ing Bill Cameron's ear.
"Yes!" he shouted back. "But
don't be afraid"
His hand reached for hers and
