you're coming with me; those hombres
are staying right here" He stepped
on the starter, geared the car around
so that it faced back on its tracks.
Then he cut the motor. A voice said:
Johnny on a querulous note mixed
with fear.
Cut it. sister, Pine snapped; and
Johnny made no answer All he could
think of. was that gun in Pino's big
hand. Then from the west came the
beat of motor again, only single
rhythm was lost. Two headlights
appeared, mounting a rise. They
wobbled and drew apart. Cruising
Taking it easy. one on each side of
the road.
"He 'phoned the Arizona station"
the driver whispered. That's both of
them coming back. They can't see US
from the road. He'll get his break -"
Johnny's heart was pounding in his
throat. If he only had the moxie,
the umphah; but that gun had him
absolutely stopped. The irregular
rhythm came nearer. Johnny moist
ened his lips. He knew now what he
was going to do. His fingers were busy
with the case. Sweet Sue came out in
the moonlight. cautiously drawn at his
side.
To his right was a towering saguaro,
though to Johnny it meant only shell
ter. He waited until the lights ducked
out of vision behind the intervening
rise. Then, like pack rat he slittered
away to the other side of the plant.
He heard the driver let out a muff1ed
gasp. and Pine surprised "Hey!'
But Johnny was paying no atten-
ton to that Sweet Sue was up to his
mouth. So that cop wanted Boots and
Saddles. Let him get load of how it
should be done.

as he closed the washroom door,
halfway between the station and the
car. In earshot and sight of every
thing. Well, Pine needn't have wor-
ried about Johnny. Johnny wasn't
making any move.
He thought he wasn't, anyway,
until he got the idea. The moment the
idea hit him, he wished it hadn't.
He stood there staring in the mirror,
drawing a comb through his hair.
Just thinking about it made him ill.,
His spine crawled. Gun blasts. Scream
ing and blood. This was no business
of his. But he thought of Margie,
and how white her face had looked in

on the bottom, stretched like a goat
skin to dry.
But Johnny Barsa hadn't had quite
enough. Turn him loose without his
gum" he begged the Arizona cop.
He nicked my trumpet and he nearly
ruined my lip. Gimme whack at the
big baboon."
Take it easy now, Buster" the
big cop laughed. holding Johnny's
arms.
Johnny wrenched himself free.
Don't call me Busterr he snarled.
"Whewy"' said the big cop with no
derision. Mister, l guess you really
mean it think you'd really take him

said he would, to Lordsburg; but not
to bust any banks.
The driver up front was chattering
away with the garrulousness born of
profound relief: About reward dough,
mostly. and what he'd do with his
third. And what did they think they'd
do with theirs?
"In decide, when and if l get it."
Johnny was cautious. He had given
his address. though, with plenty Of

Then he had added: "The girl? Oh,

to see.

There were some weird side-ef-

years in the depths where all hope

There were great increases in ap-
petite and weight. The patients re-
covered old skills in games which
they had lost. They became inter-

much more practical then they had
been before their madness.

Doctors Diagnose
.Unwarranted Fear
And Find a Clue
Psychiotric Association
Told of Case Solved by
Discovery Of Tumor
BY THOMAS r. HENRY,
Star Staff Correspondent.

RICHMOND, Va. May There
is a paralyzing, overwhelming fear
of nothing.
The first diagnosed cases of this
condition, which may be symptom
of fatal organic disease, were de-
scribed to the American Psychiatric
Association meeting here by DR..
Hospital, San Francisco.
They were due to fear tumors"
of the sympathetic nervous system,
the primitive communications sys-
tenn of the body which controls many
functions of the body.
Any emotion. DR.. Kasanin ex-
planned, is due to this ancient nerve
system, one of whose functions is
to prepare the body for an emer-
gency. One sees something which
threatens existence. Immediately
the heart begins to beat faster, the
breathing becomes more rapid. the
hair stands on end. There is feel
Ing OF extreme terror.
Duplicated by Adrenalin.
All these things may happen DR..
KaSanin explained, without any
thing to be afraid of if the SYM
pathetic system is set into action by
some pathological process. All the
effects of extreme fear, for exam
pie, can be duplicated by heavy in
jections of adrenalin.
Cases such as those described have
been known to psychiatrists for
many years and described as float
ing anxieties." There has been no
previous explanation of them.
Anxiety, DR.. KaSanin explained,
is universal in the human race.
To the mild degree in which it is
experienced by most persons in
everyday life it is stimulating but
when it becomes overwhelming, it
results in complete paralysis of
action. This seems to be the prin-
ciple, he explained, on which Hitler
has proceeded in his conquest of
Europe.
Dr. Kasanin cited the case of
a woman who suddenly began to
display signs of extreme fear in
the presence of men, although she
actually had no fear of them She
would begin to breath deeply, her
heart would palpitate rapidly, and
otherwise she would display all the
symptoms of extreme emotional ex-

1t became so embarrassing and
so subject to misinterpretation that
she stopped going out with men.
X-ray examination revealed a small
tumor of the right adrenal gland.
When this was removed the patient
quickly returned to normal.
Similar manifestations of anxiety
and depression, without any actual
emotional feeling, was described in
a boy suffering from lesion of the
part of the brain known as the
hypothalamus, the higher center of
the autonomic nervous center.
Men and women are being brought
