CHAPTER xxIII

Knowledge of her power at this moment, and of the vengeance she was about to wreak on the Tyler girl, gave Leana sormis face a wild look of exhilaration. She threw her transmitter switch as If the act were q definite little finale.
 And finale it wasl Not even Leana Sormi, brilliant scientist, had known the extreme potency of x-eeoiil
 Simultaneously with her touch of that switch, all of hellfire itself helched over the universe. The earth shook in & staccato of doom. Tonto Mountain, it ap- peared, was lifted skyward. A great spreading bulk blacked out the light of day, extended east ward over 6 full five miles, then came pelting roaring - crashing down in an all-consuming bom- nardment.
 The top half of Mummy Ridge itself was blown square off and a minute later 1t and all its area there to the east were buried under countless tons of debris. The very physiography of @ mountain range was being altered. And no- body-no living soul-heard Leana Sorml give her long, hysterical ] scream.
 From other points of view Gas told countless times in the months l and even years to follow) the ex- plosion of Tonto Mountain was that of o volcano, no less. Except that this particular volcano spewed fire from only one side of its mouth, after first bursting out an opening
 The actual eruption was not straight up, but angled. The great force of the explosion naturally took the path of least resistance. The west half of Tonto Mountain was a bulwark of granite, virtually solid rock mile thick ct It's base. iA flat white face of that granite Iliad showed at the peak to form Q Landmark for centuries. But in nature's own eruptions cons ago Ishe had loosened and stirred the eastern half of Tonto, upending It's lstrata and piling there loose boul- lders, smaller rocks and soils. It twas this loose deposit which gave tway under the force of x-999s explosion.
 That loose half of Tonto became shrapnel, spreading out fan-wise. The granite half stood firm, mere- hy shaken by the recoil.
 Tho circumstance proved to be extremely fortunate for puny hu- Rnan beings who had dared en- lsconce themselves in natures bosom here. It was as if nature had kept benign hand over them and their little huts. Not that the huts escaped damage every window in the scientists village was broken, and every china dish, every bit Of glass equipment in the laboratory.
 Rock chimneys were toppled over One cabin was moved quite off its foundation. he stables, 4iimsy structures at best, were Siattened and three of the horses Killed. A dozen major or minor ayalanches were started on neigh boring mountains, and their roll- ing, pelting rocks were still an echoing thunder 10 minutes after the actual explosion.

has Hitler already. so has nothing
worse to fear; if he promises to
release the prisoners-which he is
really afraid to do-the French
have no faith that his promises
will be kept. Why should they?
If he gets the Mediterranean ports,
he has no ships with which to use
them. And he negotiates because
he needs France.
For meanwhile Britain. defend
ing her own shores and sighting a
brilliant campaign hundreds of
miles from home, has, with the
aid of Greece, knocked out Italy
in Africa. There are no Germans
or Italians in Africa for Weygand
to surrender to, even if his govern
ment so ordered.
Two armies and two navies
escaped from Hitler as the result
OF his sudden victory over France
and as the result of the third
repetition Of his mistake about
Britain.
Does Colonel Lindbergh think
that this behavior is either politi-
cal or military genius? 1t is Grass
stupidity. 1t is a moral moron
misestimating the strength of
resolution and a word of honor.
DUT Hitler has another card to
- play. He is playing ii. And
his offensive during the last few
weeks has been a political offen-
sive, concentrated in Washington.
There his friends, whatever kind
words they may be saying about
Britain. are playing his game as
vigorously as they can. Stop aid

in by reversing the American for
eign policy! Save Germany the
awful task of having to defeat a
Britain supplied by the United
States
This is Hitler's fourth attempt
since the war began to defeat
Churchill without having really 10
fight him. For Hitler knows that
even if he should win, it would
be world catastrophe He would
have situation on his hands with
which he knows he is unable to
cope.
IF COLONEL LINDBERGEI
Il loves peace so much. why is he
not advising a defeated Italy 10
make peace with a victorious
Britain? Why is he advising a
completely indicated Britain 10
make peace with Hitler instead?
Since che colonel again has
elected TO court the publicity that
he pretends TO loathe by playing
high politics. it is the right Of the
American people TO ask him few
straightforward questions.

WHY does -CeleHel -LiRdbergh
w attempt to mislead America
by implying that France and
Britain were guilty?
Why did Hitler not turn from
the short successful war on Po-
land. directly against France and
Britain? Why did he wait from
Fall until Spring?
He still wanted 10 separate
France from Britain.
Why. having knocked France
down in the space of few weeks,
did he hastily conclude an armi-
stice without demanding the
surrender of the fleet or the ca
pitulation of the colonial army?
Because he thought Britain
would Withdraw.
Mhv-did- he mot push right
through and attack England AT
that moment. when the British
Isles were completely undefended,
and the army, escaped from Dun
kirk. still disorganized for home
defense?
Because he does not want Brit
ain as an enemy. He wants Britain
as an ally. That has been the
basis OF his whole miscalculated
policy,
Ludendorff would not have
waged such war. And Hitler.

It was added that the Elias trial Prague (not at Berlin, as had been reported) and lasted about three hours. Then members of the Ger man court adjourned to consider their verdict and returned in 46 minutes to sentence Elias to death, 1t was said.
 Then, according to the dispatch, Gen. Elias said he had been person. ally convinced that the old Czech- oslovakia could not be restored, and that he always desired to cooper. ate with Germany"

 There is only one voice to be heard from now. There is much po- tential dynamite in the present sit- uation but there is still much con- fidence, too, that moral courage, strength and honesty will rise to meet the Soviet'S unreasonable are rogance. The cornrntsSars must be told, not in words alone, but by deeds, that, freedom in Soviet Rus- sia is as important to civilization as 1t is in England, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Norway, Holland Luxembourg or any other Democ- racy recently assaulted by the Nazi conquerors.
 The Catholic laymen's commit tee for peace made public through its national secretary, William T, Leonard, the text of a telegram 1t has sent to President Roosevelt. It called up him to combine in your crusade against Nazism the equally worthy object, the elimination of Communism"
 Administration Congressional leaders are confident of House and Senate majorities on the lend-lease appropriation but some of them and many of the general member ship believe the president made a tactical error in discussing the question of religious freedom last week. MT. Roosevelt merely said that the Soviet Union and United States constitutional guarantees on that subject were similar.
 One of the most powerful mem bers of the Senate foreign relations committee remarked that few here would have confidence in a Com munist guarantee of that kind and expressed fear that Mir. Roosevelt's remarks would antagonize religious groups in the United States.
 Some others. however, believed he must have had reason to believe the Soviet Union would make at least & gesture toward modifying religious organizations. notably the Catholic Church.

 The dispatch said Elias admitted he had had knowledge of this ac- tivity and had received Information of German troop movements ond the construction of strategic high. ways.
 4 former Socialist deputy named Richter was quoted as testify!ng that he had taken part in a secret military organization, "a kind of new rnafia," of which Eltls was ria- derstood to be the head.
 Helped Czechs Escape
 The dispatch quoted testimony that as one of the activities of this organization, one general Inger di- rected the escape of Czechs abroad and that General Neumann headed Q terrorist group aimed at liquid- ating German sympathizers.
 It was said that Elias pleaded partly" guilty to charges but de. nied that he had taken part in the terrorist-eScape organization.
 Mayor Klapka was said to have testified that he had created from public monies" q big secret fund to support the families of Czech patri. otS who escaped abroad.
 Klapka was quoted that he had attempted to work Loyalty with the Germans but had been induced by Elias to take part in 'llega1" ac. tivities. It was alleged that Klapka said Elias had assured him that German rule in Czechoslovakia was only temporary and independence would be restored soon.
 'Duel" at Trial
 According to the Nazi dispatches, Elias denied this and then he and Klapka engaged in . dramatic duel on the witness stand confronting each other, glaring with hatred as deadly enemies"
