Jim swung his legs off the

Halloran had an automatic pistol

There wasn't a chance of jump

A bottle was held to Jim's
lips. The liquor burned his
throat. He lay awhile, then said
hoarsely, $50 we meet again,
Halloran?"
Right. And under different
circumstances. This time, old
man, l do the talking. My crew
has yours covered with guns that
will shoot. We had to knock
out that black boy and the bald
guy and lock them in the fo'-
castle. The others didn't want
trouble. You're a screwy guy,
Mallory, going after million in
gold unarmed. Did you under
estimate me?"
mot that" Jim said. He sat
up, even though his head spun.
II knew you were tough and
smart. You see, l didn't know
about the gold"
you didn't? Then Forbes was
right. He said you only wanted
to salvage the Sonora's non
existent cargo, but l didn't be-
lieve it. l thought you had the
wind of the gold from the girl"
From what girl?"
"Hammond's secretary. She
had been doing a lot of running
after you back at Miami Beach. {"
Did she know about the
gold?"
Maybe, and maybe not. I
think she suspected something.
You see, after the Sonora was
lost she asked lot of questions
OF the Coast Guard. They could
MT tell her anything, so she
wrote to the couple of white
men among the crew. But they
had been paid a bonus to keep
quiet, and they stuck 70 their
story that the Sonora went down

Halloran picked up his gun
and stood up. well, thanks
for everything, Mallory baby"

man."
Halloran stood there for just a
moment, grinning at Jim Mall
DRY, and Jim wondered II he
should risk jumping the man. 1t
was then that the door to; the ad-
joining cabin opened. Mary
stood there, smiling and lovely
and incredibly calm. She had
Jim's gun in her hand.
She said, Hello, Bert" And
laughed at the way he started.
Put down that gun, darling. ]

Halloran's guard was all the
way down. Jim took advantage
of his brief alarm and jumped,
He struck hard, and struck
again, and Halloran simply fold

the gun the man dropped, He
went to a port and looked out
onto deck. The armed men he

roads will be built or improved by
the District.
The original Terminal Yards Act
of 1906 required the railroads to
build three crossings over the yards,
these being originally planned for
the lines of Ninth, Twelfth and Fiji
teenth streets. The act was amended
by Congress in 1885 to call for two
crossings instead of three. One of
these has been built and is in serv-
ice. 1t is the underpass on the line
of Montana avenue.
Construction Of the Ninth street
viaduct was ordered by the COM
missioners in 1887, but the ques-
ton was taken to Congress and it
extended the time for beginning
construction to late in 1910, the
work to be completed within lS
months. The railroads submitted
drawings for the work recently and
these have been approved by the
city heads. In order to permit de-
velopment of the modified clover
leaf arrangement Of roads on the
New York avenue end Of the via
duct and to provide for desired con-
nections with Sixth street and Mount
Olivet road, as we'll as New York
avenue, transfers of land were ar
ranged between the Highway De-
partment, Brentwood Park and the
Columbia Institute for the Deaf.

Lord Halifax said events had awak-

States, am amazed at the rapidity
with which that awakening has
taken place"
He said axis failures had echoed

While Ricci and the Finance Min
istry crack down in an effort to
stabilize money prices and salaries

Giuseppe Tassinari to serve as food
dictator. Many urban centers feel
shortages of wheat, oil, sugar, rice

needs. Tassinari and the partymen

There is really no reason for food

to provide that organization which
will improve the situation Of the
capitalists and the penniless alike.

II Killed, ID Injured
In Raids, Germans Soy

BERLIN, Jan. 9 CP-Eleven civil
ians were killed and IA injured by
British air raiders who scattered
high explosives and incendiary bombs
over the coastal regions of North
western Germany in the night, the
German high command reported to-
day.
Minor damage to one industrial
plant was acknowledged but most
Of the bombs were said to have
fallen in residential" sections.
(The British reported their
bombers had attacked the Ger
man naval bases at Wilhelms-
haven and Emden, starting many
large fires. Other British raiders
were reported to have attacked
an airdrome on the island of Bor-
KUN, in the FriSian chain)
The German air force carried out
a series of "audacious individual
attacks on England yesterday, the
high command declared, and one
Nazi combat plane scored two di-
rect hits on a motor factory near
Coventry.
Operations of the LuftWaffe were
limited by adverse weather condi-

The attack on the Coventry fac
tory was said to have been made

OF the unions involved, at the
Wabash avenue bridge this morn
ing. They were admitted to the
bridge house but barred from the
control room.
Approximately $500 members of
the unions attended mass meet
ing at which the strike call was
issued. The action was taken after
the City Council Finance Committee
had adopted sliding scale of pay
cuts for employees earning more
than $1,000 annually.
The strike resolution provided
that emergency workers in the fire
alarm, police telephone and traffic
signals departments continue work.
May Face Prosecution.
Mayor Kelly declared last night
that If work stoppage created fire
and health hazards, striking en-
ployes would jeopardize their civil
service standing and possibly face
criminal prosecution.
w. j. Lynch, city harbor master
said bridge supervisor had received
word from Michael j. Umbrella
Nike Boyle, head of the Elec-
tricians' Union, that at least 18 oi
the So bridges would be manned re-
gardlesS of the bridge tenders par
{icipation in the threatened strike.
Mayor Kelly asserted the pro-
posed reductions still left salaries
above the union scale and added
that "the time has passed when
excessive salaries can be paid. The
city has not the money"
Barnet Hodes, corporation coun-
sci, stated he would take such step,
as will protect the public interest.

vantage of the terrain, might be able
to make some sort of stand in the
rugged Jebel Akdar Mountains
which rise to height of 5000 feet
between Tobruk and Bengasi, but
they expect no real opposition.
The area has a considerable white
population, approximately 10000
Italian peasants having been settled
there few years ago in land made
arabic by irrigation. Most Of the
male population is believed to be
serving already with the Italian
North Army, however.
Few Bases Beyond Bengasi.
Beyond Bengasi only few insig-
nifcant coastal settlements and
bases are scattered along the road
to Tripoli, 500 miles away. The
British seem to feel Tripon would
be the neXt-and last-place at
which the Italians could make real
stand in Libya if Bengasi goes.
Actually, they say, the elaborate
transport system built by the late
Marshal Italo Balbo for Premier
Mussolinis Libyan empire is prov
ing the Italians undoing, for it is
providing means for the Army of
the Nile to traverse the desert
wastes.
The British forces at Tobruk now
are 200 miles from their nearest
railhead at Matruh, Egypt, and
transportation difficulties have taken
any of the punch out of their
offensive.

White Urges Rival
Defense Groups 10
Stop Name Calling
Any Blow to Hitler
Must Be Knockout,
He Tells Gen. Wood
By the Associated Press.

EMPORIA, Kans., Jan. 9-Wil-
liam Allen White appealed last night
for an end to name calling" among
rival citizen defense committees and
asked all such groups to unite in
urging Congress to speed up pre-
parednesS.
Replying to an invitation to join
the America First Committee, the
Emporia editor who last week re-
signed as active chairman of the
committee to Defend America by
Aiding the Allies asserted:
"' = Our emotional friends who
jibe one another as war mongers
and appeasers are good folk who
let their emotions overcome their
common sense. Can't we serve our
country best from now on by asking
people to respect one another's
opinions, not to call names, to
realize that this is an honest diff
ference between good citizens and
not a time for the billingsgate of
bigotry? ="
Mr.. White, who remained as
honorary chairman OF tne group ne
organized and formerly headed, ad-
dressed the reply to Gen. Robert E.
Wood, national chairman of the
America First Committee.
Asserting that as long as we are
delivering any blow to Hitler it
should not be a mushy blow. but a
knockout" Mr.. White said the two
committees had much in common, -
but noted this difference:
Our committee desires quite as
sincerely as your committee to keep
this country out of war. We would
follow the President in aiding Great
Britain. Apparently you would
hesitate"
Mr.. White did not give a definite
"yes' or no" answer to Gen.

LONDON, Jan. 9.-Royal Air Force

communique reported today.
In Wilhelmshaven, it reported,
many explosions were heard and
these were followed by large fires.
More than 20 fires were started in

"Other aircraft" the Air Min

drome on the Island of Borkum,
where barracks were hit and fire
broke out. None OF our aircraft is

While the British planes were
making their attacks on Northwest
Germany, Britain herself had the
third night of freedom from air
assault.
The British activity was the first
at night against German targets
to be reported since armed recon-
naissance flights Monday night
| along the German occupied coast of
| France.
Most observers attributed the in
activity of the Nazi air force to
weather conditions over England
which have been unfavorable for
several nights. London has not had
a night alarm since Sunday.
The morning communique of the
Ministries of Air and Home Securi-
ties was limited to a laconic There
