Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-07-19


%APTTAINE BoNTRAMONT, Agent Special of
the Upper Volta, that mysterious territory
north of the Ivory Coast in French West
Africa, was trekking comfortably through the
forest region near the southern border
He paid little attention to the growl of signal
drums as they thudded out their nightly messages
After all, he thought they were merely signalling
the death of the old Maroli Nabo king of vast areas
in that region
But what he did not know was that they were
sounding alarm to all natives in Vichy's West
African Empire
He was new man, appointed for political rea-
sons. He didn't know much of the country he was
inspecting he hadn't been told that Vichv officials
were in danger of their lives
And when he was found one morning with his
throat ripped by claws, Vichy knew ONLY too well
that the claws were not those of leopard They
were the iron claws of the Leopard Men.
And the drums were not talking of the death
of a great king.
THE leopards are out" they were saving.
walk softly o, Franchi for the Leopard Men are
the hunt"
Capitaine Bontramont had halted his men one
evening IN small town the bank of a quiet
river over the huts brooded giant cotton wood
tree ana silent footed hunting dogs shifted about
the bark huts
He ate his dinner with good appetite and sat in
the cool OF the evening with a cigarette keeping a
bright lookout for the smiling brown girls of the
village.
Vichy might have warned him against the large
eyed brown girls of the Upper Volta Vchy might
have remembered that most of those girls are CON
nected IN some way with the deadly Leopard Men
But after all, the Leopard Society has not been
active for many years. The Leopard Men have lain
silent and harmless in their secret LARS
But few weeks ago they began again their
trenzied dances of slaughter They brcwcd the
Borfima, that drug laden potion that lends them
strength, cunning and ferocity more vicious than
the beasts whose souls they assume They have
unsheathed their iron claws, dashed on their hid
eous masks and are once more lurking beside the
game trails of the Upper Volta and Ivory Coast
They seek revenge for the death of their king
the Maroli Nabo.
For years this gigantic monarch had ruled his
people well. He has visited France been decorated
by her Presidents and entertained by the highest in
the land He was enlightened lie supplied many
recruits to the Senegalese regiments; the pride of
the French Colonial Army
When Germany started war he responded with
feroclous enthusiasm Many of his young men
served IN France. But when that country sur
rendered this fighting king could not understand
What had happened to those heroic soldiers he had
known?
Then General de Gaule broke from his Govern
ment and gathered converts to the cause of Free
France.

She looked back, lifting her small hand in

got up to follow.
The forest was dark, but ahead something
fitted along the narrow path. Putting slightly he
broke into run, rounded corner and there she
stood, against tree under great, spreading

him to the ground. He opened his mouth to
scream but knives slashed into his throat and he
collapsed, choking. Weirdly caparisoned figures
capered about the dying figure. Masked they were,
with leopard skins strapped to their bodies IN
claws, fastened to rings their wrists we've
gripped between their fingers as, screaming like
the leopards they portrayed, they sashed at the
PROSTATE Frenchman. The girl ran silently back
to the village. The Leopard Men stole away from
their victim.
The drums said that Franchi had been killed

man power that built
the biggest African

But now chiefs
were leading their
warriors across bor-
ders to the Gold
Coast and British

the east the whole of
Frenc h Equatorial
Africa was against
the Vichy regime.
Troops were sent
from Dakar. Lou

The Maroli Nabo was
placed in close con.

palace.
But that didn't
help Vichy, for the
Senegalese subjects
of the king, appalled,
that their ruler had
lost face, refused to
remain under Vichy
control. There were
wholesale desertions.
When Laval took
over one of his first
actions was to at
tempt to make the
king swear allegiance
to Vichy.
No one knows
what pressure was
brought to bear on
the tough old war
riOr. But he refused
to have anything to
do with them and de-
clared defiantly that
he had nothing but
contempt for the
Government. He was

Had French officials known more about Africa
they would have realized that Africans do not be-

the result of evil influence
And those influences must be punished.
Captane Bontramont watched slim beauty
with tightly curled hair and curved, provocative
figure as she languidly switched herself past his
deck chair.
"Hey, cherie" he called. "Viens done"

Ey the Associated Press.

z, the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, July THE Swed-
ish Nays attempts to convoy ship
ping to Germany and Finland today
appeared to be developing into an
undeclared sea war as Swedish de-
stroyers twice yesterday attacked
submarines in territorial waters.
The first clash occurred yesterday
morning in the Baltic about 100
miles south of Stockholm after a
submarine OF undetermined nation
atty fired torpedo at a Swedish
convoy. The torpedo missed and
exploded on the shore.
Warship Attacks Sub.
A Swedish warship, escorting the
convoy. Immediately attacked the
submarine, dropping depth bombs.
The second attack was yesterday
afternoon when a Swedish destroyer
depth-bombed submarine observed
inside Swedish waters east OF Oeland
Island near convoy.
As in a similar encounter last Fri
day, when Swedish warship at
tackled submarine, there was no in
dication whether the submarines
were hit.
The intensification OF Sweden's
shipping difficulties started June n
when the Swedish steamer Ada Cor
thon was torpedoed in territorial

waters, with the loss Of II seamen.
The Swedish government said the
attacking submarine in this case was
identified as Russian, but Moscow
replied that an investigation failed
to substantiate Sweden's claim.
Fishing Ships Bombed.
A Stockholm broadcast heard by
CHS yesterday said a Swedish fish
ing vessel was bombed and machine
gunned half an hour Saturday by a
clearly marked German plane off
the west coast of Sweden.
The German radio quoted an edi-
torial from the Swedish newspaper
Helsingborgs Dagblad as saying
Swedish public opinion was "enor-
mously aroused" by Soviet incon-
siderateness."
I'VE must learn" the editorial
said as quoted by the Germans,
that only those who know suffi-
GENTLY to emphasize their words by
means OF power will be able to carry
the day. The depth charges. there
fore. probably did more good than
the protests"
