Free French Given
Chance 10 Join in
Allied Declaration
U. S. Statement Regarded
As Bid to ExiIes Of
Axis ond' Satellites
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The United States opened the way
yesterday for Free French adherence
to the United Nations declaration
pledging rs governments to use their
full military and economic might
against Axis powers with which they
are at war.
Since this country does not have
diplomatic relations with the De
Gaullist movement, the Free French
were not represented when the
momentous document was signed
here Friday.
State Department Statement.
Last night, however, the State
Department issued this statement:
.. I'm order that liberty loving
peoples silenced by military ferce
may have an opportunity to support
the principles of the declaration by
United Nations. the Government of
the United States. as the depository
for that declaration, will receive
statements of adherence to its prin-
ciples from appropriate authorities
which are not governments"
There was no official elaboration
on the statement, but it was re-
garded as an unmistakable gesture
and invitation to the Free French.
Likewise, it appeared to open the
way for adherence by anti-Axis Or
ganizations Of German, Italian or
Japanese nationals, or of such Axis
occupied or satellite nations as Den
mark. Albania, Rumania, Bulgaria
and Hungary.
De Kaufman Adheres.
Henrik de Kaufman, the Danish
Minister. said in a statement Satur-
day night that although his gov
eminent in occupied Denmark was
under German duress Danes in the
free world" adhered to the declara-
ton. He said he had given the State
Department statement to this ef-
feet to be made part Of the United
Nations document.
A similar declaration was made
to the State Department yesterday
by the Latvian Minister, DR.. Alfred
Bilmanis.
Although Latvia unfortunately
has limited material aid to give to
the common cause since 1t is under
NaH occupation" said a statement
from the Legation, 1T gladly offers
such help as is available"

ed under a false name. That was
the reason she had not been not
flied TO his death.
The Dexels were certain she
would not betray them to the
authorities for two reasons. One
was that she would incriminate
her brother. But a still better
reason was Darwin Lemoy.
She had met Darwin while he
was still a college student in
Chicago. There were Advanced
Thinker groups formed in col
lege circles as a part of Nazi
strategy and Darwin had been
entlced into attending the one
organized by the DcXels.
Darwin and Carole FiSkc
grew friendly. In those careless
days of peace his Bund-inspired,
pro-Nazi views didn't affect
their relationship. When OAR
win went abroad to play hockey
for the CZechoSlovakian team
in 1885, letters to influential
persons had resulted in an invi-
tation for him to enjoy a care
fully directed tour of Germany
at the expense of the Reich. He
returned to the United States a
profound admirer of the Hitler
regime.
However, the invasion of Po-
land and the temporary liaison
of Germany and Russia had a
SCATTERING effect on Darwin's
beliefs. This became more no.
ticeable as America drifted
steadily toward the brink of
war. His change of heart be-
came known to the Dexels and
m ~ stormy scenes developed
when Darwin asserted their first
duty was to America.
AS the lend-lease program set
bombers flowing in increasing
number Britain: secret Nazi-
controlled system was devised to
secure all possible data on
planes and weather through a
chain of reporting posts. OAR
win was in on the preliminary
planning, but later rebelled.
Carole Fiske had appealed to
Darwin to save her brother
from being drawn deeper into
the spy ring. The Dexels knew
this, Paul revealed, and shadow
ed her to an airport where she
was seen bidding farewell to
Darwin.
They then lost track of him
until coded cable from Pvt.
Bernard Fiske, alias Skrol, told
Darwin was in st. Johns and
had already been talking to him
along lines definitely opposed
to their work"
Paul Dexel had rushed to st.
Johns and arrived the day af-
ter the murders. Darwin had
found Fiske was cultivating the
friendship of a Ferry Command
official in an important post.
When approached by Darwin,
Fiske boldly admitted he was
after some technica' data that
official had. Furthermore he

ready was.
Fiske told all this to Paul
DeXcl upon the latter's arrival.
That night Dcxel trailed the
Ferry Command official and

Fiske TO the speakeasy and was
amazed TO see Darwin Lemoy
slip in after the pair. Obviously
Lemoy was shadowing them
without seeing Dexel on the
same mission.
In his confession Dexel stated
that Darwin could not have been
more than halfway up the stairs
when a shot sounded from sec
ond floor room. A moment later
lie saw two figures-whom he
identified as Darwin and Fiske
struggling against the drawn
shade. Another shot was heard
and the shorter man, Fiske,
dropped.
The rest Dawson knew al
ready. Darwin had run from the
speakeasy into the arms of
constable. On him was found
the gun that had killed the two,
and the officials wallet. In face
of other disclosures it was evil
dent to Dawson that Darwin
had intended returning the
plans TO the Ferry Command,
and that he pocketed the gun
which Dexel had gwen Fiske to
clear Carole's brother of a muir
der-suicide stigma.
In. view of all this there was
onl. one course for Darwin Lee
moy to follow on being captur-
ed-absolute silence. Otherwise,
the whole story would come out,
including his own association
with the ring. And Carole would
be involved.
Back in Chicago, conSterna-
ton had followed the discovery
tina the highly secret filing cab
met had been tempered with. A
fingerprint was found, and it
was decided to investigate the
spy ring personnel thoroughly
t. find its owner.
Dexel was ordered to secure
set of Lemoy's prints, but his
only opportunity came after the
hanging, when the body went to
the vault He had to work fast,
and he found it impossible to
unbend the fingers and work in
the cramped, ghostly quarters.
SO he hacked off the hand. But,
as Dawson had deduced, Dcxcl
had been forced to hurry off
when the investigator left st.
Johns suddenly. Dawson was
Of major interest TO the spy
ring after the hours he'd spent
III the death cell.
Dexers one faux pas was
when he threw the hand into
Darwin's cabin aboard the Carl
bou-a blunder inspired by the
Nazi principle of terrorizing the
enemy.
Back in Chicago, John Dexel
hadn't dared tell Carole FiSke
about her brother and Darwin
Lemoy. If she had known that
Bernard was dead and Darwin
was in prison awaiting execu-
ton, she might have confessed
everything in the home of get
ting Darwin off with Jail SEN
tence. So, to explain Darwin's
silence, John had faxed a story
that Darwin had killed Paul
Dexel in an argument over the
spy ring and was hiding from
the Newfoundland police.
There it was, super case
thoroughly ironed out, Dawson
had started with a snapshot of
girl and piece of beefsteak on
hanged man't heel, and I'M
covered a major spy ring. But
there was no thrill of satisfac-
ton now.

TRAGIC NEWS
CHAPTER XIII

The three days after Carole
Fishes escape to st. Johns were
the longest Clyde Dawson had
ever known. The Eastern Air
Command had told him that a
blizzard was rolling in over
northeastern Newfoundland and
il was already ceiling zero" at
the airport where he must land.
The last boat for three days had
sailed that morning from North
Sydney for Port-aux- Basques, Ia
connect with the Newfoundland
Railway.
Shortly after $3.50 in the
morning at the fourth day, the
telephone awakened Dawson
An Eastern Air Command Off
Ger informed him crisply that
the weather was clearing and a
plane would be ready to take off
at dawn.
BY noon Dawson was inter-
viewing the veteran captain in
command of the st. Johns port.
The officers face was grim.
"The Fort Glengarry was tor
pedoed off Cape Race, New
foundland, two nights ago."
Dawson grasped the arms of
hic chair, his knuckles showing
white.
Are there any survivors re-
ported?" His voice sounded
strange to his own ears.
Yes, but not many. There
was only one woman, in fact
a majors wife Ell route to join
her husband here"
A numbing sensation Of trag-
edy enveloped Dawson as he
rose, with a mumbled word of
thanks, and let the office. Life
has a strange way of interweav-
ing human hearts, he thought, as
he made his way along the
street.
If only he had revealed his
identity sooner, Carole Fiske
would not have continued to
Newfoundland on her pathetic
search for Darwin Lemoy and
her brother, 1t was useless for
Dawson to argue that Carole'S
actions had left him no other
choice than to regard her as an
enemy agent. Somehow he
should have CLEANED some ink
ling of the facts before Paul
DeXcl, in his confession, had
disclosed that Bernard Skrol -
really Bernard Fiske-was Car
ole's brother and the Dexels
were her alf-brothers.
The mother was German and
had married twice. Her first
husband, father of the Dexels.
had died shortly after coming to
the United States from Ger
many. Her second husband,
Fiske, was of German-American
stock.
The two Dexel boys and Ber-
nard Fiske had become enthusi-
astic Bund members in Chicago.
With the outbreak of the war
abroad, the girl repeatedly pro-
tested to them about their con-
tinuing Bund activities. When
her brother Bernard enlisted
and went to Newfoundland her
letters to him were returned,
and she suspected he had enlist
