soon have resulted in his being taken out and
shot.
Now and again, when somebody left
copy lying around, he read the newspapers.
His attitude toward the printed word was one
of reserved suspicion. His mind was as open
as his shirt to the four winds.
Weeks later Sammy was still a free agent.
BY that time he was indulging his liking for
New England scenery, after close brush
with constituted authority in the neighbor
hood of Atlantic, City.
AGAINST the gray light of Connecticut
dawn, man hoisted himself furtively aboard
the freight which Sammy had jumped, and
discovered Sammy's presence with the eye of
one who has turned up snake.
''Hullo, pal" Sammy greeted him. Come
on in. Welcome to our happy home"
From the fellows precise English, Sammy
soon tagged him as foreigner of some sort,
but that was neither here nor there with him.
1t was part of Sammy's creed not to ask
questions, and natural for him to offer to an
uninitiate in this mode of travel the benefit
of his own ripe experience.
Trail along with me-" said Sammy, land
Evening star., 1942-11-08

~N THE same morning whose dawn
Il brought destruction to village in
~ Europe, Sammy slept peacefully in an
empty boxcar which belonged to the Santa
Fe Railroad, but was now jolting along
cleaning rails ii Pennsylvania. The idea that
this remote event could affect his own destiny
might well have caused Sammy to laugh in
his sleep.
He was still free agent. This freedom
extended even to his clothes - which at times
allowed his pelt to protrude - and to his
shoes, which often admitted more than fash
ionable ventilation for his toes.
Sammy was nobody's dupe The thought
of drill sergeant barking at him to snap
out of it, or of bugle s,lmmoning him from
repose, while the air was still improperly
warmed by the sun, was highly repugnant to
him. The draft would not catch up with him
if he could help it.
BY hidden campfres or during illegal jour
neyings he had been known to pronounce
eloquently against the iniquities of govern
ment, the evils of legislation and the general
folly of his fellow Americans. He could. at
times, be blasphemous. and even speak in
a way which in certain other countries would

III show you the ropes" Soon discovering
that he had most attentive audience for
his theories, he became increasingly eloquent
in damnatory sort of way.
you seem to be terribly misgoverned,'
said the man.
Il seem to be-" Sammy blinked. Where in
hades do you come fom?' Then, with
glance at the fellows panied face, he pulled
up short. 'Okay, okay. My mistake. You
don't have to answer. This is free county,
But he began to wonder Not to worry. He
never worried; it took energy.
Two nights later, with pleasant afterglow
still luminous, he got his answer while on the
prowl about wayside station. 1t was posted
up. Hans Grober eh? Suspected of illegal
entry. Enemy agent. Description. Any per-
son knowing whereabouts.
DANNY returned to where he had left his
man slapping mosquitoes by creek, and
handed him the poster, which he had de-
tached casually from the station wall. The
effect was instantaneous.
"An right" cried Sammy. Don't have to
jump like that, do you? Not unless you got
hornet in your pants. Let's talk this over.
Me, I've always hankered to meet up with
one of you guys. You know how it isl
read about you now and then in the papers,
but like to keep an open mind. I'd sure
be glad to hear your side of the story
Slowly Herr Grober recovered from the
shock. He sat staring at Sammy in the fast
fading light. At last he said: Are there many
like you in America"
'Well,'' said Sammy, Il don't say I'm
typical, but we're thinking people. We're
not 50 easy led by the nose"
Il see you are an intelligent man."
Its big word"
Feeling his way, Herr Grober said: ''How
would you like to make some money!"
Appraising Sammys face he added shrewdly:
1T would be made - quite painlessly. If you
will continue to befriend me - to show me the
ropes as l think your quaint phrase is -
until can get in touch with certain people,
l will see that you are well rewarded
Sammy stared. He said: Il guess you got
me wrong. What would l want money for?"
II thought all Americans -" began Herr
Grober, then hastened to say, I'VE will let
that pass. For the moment let us speak no
more of it,
He glanced at the scarcely distinguishable
oval that was Sammy's face, but Sammy had
shrunk into his shell. There was decision
he had to make. 1t takes effort to make a
decision. Sammy disliked effort. Moreover,
the mere idea of what might be entailed in
turning this man over to the authorities was
a pain in the neck. Might not his own status
come into question? Might not intolerable
things lie behind this - the draft, the drill

sergeant, the war? He would wait and see.
Meanwhile he would continue relations with
this man, and enlarge his own knowledge.
There are two sides to every story.
It pleased Herr Grober to tell his side;
there was no need for concealment now.
Il came ashore" he related with pride,
from submarine. am on my way to Cali
fornia, under cover
Wouldn't suit me-" Sammy said. TOO
damned cramped. I've seen pictures"
There will come time when many of us
will land on your coasts"
"So?"
1T will be for the good of America" said
Herr Grober There are things necessarily
to be changed"
Sammy sat back on his heels and sucked
hard at his pipe. He had been about. He knew
his country. He had lazed on California
beaches, penetrated the Florida everglades,
shot moose illegally in the Maine Woods;
the first sight of the Rockies had turned
something over in him; and down in the Deep
South he had heard colored folk singing songs
in the twilight. He knew North America;
across the Mexican border senorita had
once tried to teach him Spanish; he had
heard looms call across northern Canadian
lakes, and bathed in the waters of the Gati-
neau. 1t was good land, he figured. At the
moment he couldn't think of anything he
particularly wanted changed.
And there was Hilda. She was America,
wasn't she? Behind cheap lunch counter
where they sold fish and CLAIMS on the way to
Atlantic City, she'd given him handout one
memorable evening. Half-an-hour he'd sat
there wolfng the food - with the reek of
gasoline seeping in from the stream of cars -
and watching her. How is it you can see thou
sands of women, only remember one?
Herr Grober's voice jerked him back.
I'VE would bring in the New Order"
1--WE heard of that" Sammy nodded. Its
something in Europe"
For the moment - in Europe"
1T SOUNDED to me" said Sammy, damned
uncomfortable in spots. But of course that's
the newspapers for you. They get so damned
hysterical. What was that place they made
such a stink about little while back?" The
syllables came uncomfortably to his lips
1T is not so pronounced" said Grober.
1T is, indeed, not pronounced at ALL BY order
of Our Fuehrer it is word not to be spoken"
"Well, l don't hold with that kind of
thing" Sammy said, but anyhow guess
our papers colored it up plenty. You know
how it is
I'VE were very thorough" Herr Grober
assured him. Under extreme provocation,
you understand, our men came at nightfall.
