that the Danater address will be
heard at this rally through the
medium Of radio.
Last night at q testimonial dinner
given Frank Rossi, Republican can
didate for city clerk by the Italian
American Republican Club, Mr..
Kearney and other party candidates
openly attacked their opponents
with a heavy barrage Of claims and
counterclaiEns.
Claiming that the administration
has and is resorting to o farm OF
camcuflage by which they are able
to reduce the tax rate while at the
same time offset this reduction by
an increase on property assessments,
Mr.. Kearney stated, 1.-THE admins
tration bases It's claims on o tax re-.
ductlon. I say that that Is o fals
lacy"
Asserting that the Republican
party has been "vigilant In protect
ing the interests Of the city en-
ployes" the Republican mayoralty
candidate pointed to the claim that
hts party had been responsible for
q move In the last legislature that
resulted in an amendment TO the
city charter whereby those employees
Of the city now In the armed services
would be guaranteed their jobs when
they returned, and likewise provided
that the length Of time spent IN
the service would be considered as
being accruable 70 that period for
city retirement pension.
Mr.. Kearney accused tie admin
istration Of opposing this measure
on the grounds that such @ measure
was unnecessary and said that 1t
was but further proof Of the inter-
est taken by the Republican party in
affording protection to the city
employees.
Repeats Claims
He reasserted his claims made ear.
lier In the week that the admins
tration was deliberately classifying
facts and distorting claims as to the
benefits received by the city as
result of the construction OF the new
city pipe line.
He emphasized that the Republ!-
can party was as influential IN
.sanctioning and establishing this
construction as was the administra-
ton and pointed to the fact that a
Republican legislature was In the
majority when the terms for the
bond retirement ard the like were
established.
Mr.. Kearney concluded with the
statement that 1.-THE only way you

CHAPTER SEVEN

A CABLEGRhM from Denise
Karen's hea"- leaped. then con-
tracted with something akin to
fear as she took the yellow sheet
her father handed to her. 1t might
be bad news. instead of good. for
they knew that that small Balkan
country, where Denise had gone to
make her home, stood in the path
of Hitler's relentless war machine.
although as yet it had not been at
tackled. 1t was so seldom that they
had any news, good or bad.
Once before cable had been re-
ceived at the birth of Denise's son:
again, few years later, when this
same little hoy. named after his
grandfather, James Bell Durfce,
had lain ut deaths door, stricken
with mys' crious fever: another,
months later. saying that the child
was on the road 10 recovery.
With such scant Information re-
garding the life that Denise led SO
many miles across the sea, it was
no wonder that Karen HaS aDpre-
hensive, although SHE knew what
ever news this message contained
must bear some gladncSs if it must.
at the same time. bring a wave of
sadness. too. for how could she or
her father be reminded of Denise
without the old sorrow sweeping
over them?
Again the message was about
DcniSe'S son, no word concerning
herself. 1t simply stated that she
was sending the boy home, pas
sage having been secured on a
refugee ship bringing other chill
dren to America. 1t gave the ap-
proNimate time of the ships en-
pccted arrival.
So much and get so little: there
was nothing to say what had led
to this sudden decision. Yet one
thing was significant: there was no
question as to what the boys vel
come would be or if his grandpa
Their would take care of him. And
Denise had said she was sending
him home"
II thought at first ID keep it as
a surprise for you when the little
fellow got here" Jim said. his voice

mrnt SHE could not speak. for
