tiOll. sOlCGO Ill d tOlle uldL was
deeply resonant, and Cliff caught
the faint trace of an accent.
That's right Cliff answered.
why do you come here?"
"To open up the New Dixie
rubber plantations
What makes you think you can
do that?"
Cliff smiled. What makes you
think l can't?" He drew out a
pack of cigarettes and offered it
to the rider. Vicente shook his
head. Cliffs ~unruffled acceptance
of the situation seemed to discon-
cert him, and for a moment he
stood frowning and h~esitant, then
again the deep voice rumbled.
Three weeks ago another one
came here for rubber. 1 warned
him to go. He did not go. Have
you heard what h~appened?"
You ran him out. I bought his
warehouse and machinery"
You wasted your money. You
will never use it."
"Why not?"
Eve do not want you in the
Rlacklands. That is our home"
Cliff lit his cigarette. Il don't
quite see what you have to do
with me-. The plantations belong
tc the people of New Dixie. and
l have an option on that rubber.
l brought a big crew of men for
this job. and I made a contract
with the United States Govern
ment. I can't turn around now and
tell them the deals off just be-
cause you don't want it that way.
My country is in a jam because
it can't get enough rubber. and
this is a job that has to be done"
Cliff spoke slowly and very
quietly, but his own voice held an
overtone of decision that brought
a CLINT to Vicente's eyes and
caused Lilli to look up anxiously.
win" she urged, "he's not here
to do you any harm. I just know
he's not"
Vicente's frown told plainly
how little he relished her plea in
Cliffs behalf. Then, with a kind
of savage earnestness, he spoke,
Il have not come to argue. but
1 tell you this. We do not want
roads, and bridges that will
open up our Blacklands to the out
side world. For US the jungle
means safety and a way Of life
that we have ,chosen-everything
that roads and the scum of the
outside world would destroy. MY
chief has ordered me to warn you
of these things. and SO l have
warned you. Even now it will not
be too late" Vincente raised
his hand toward the river. "Give
me your word to 60 back on
the next plane. and I will leave
you in peace"
Il can't do that" Cliff an
swered.
A long silence. Both men knew
hey had reached an inpasse, and
Vicente's eyes began smoldering
again. in that case, we will take
ways to persuade YOU" He spoke
almost regretfully. They will not
be pleasant ways, senior. Already
my young men are angry because
l vas not harder with the one
who came before you" The words
were calmly spoken, but the
intent so grimly clear that CLIFF
gave up all thought Vicente
might be bluffing-he was in very
deadly earnest, and Cliff made
a last attempt. p
Aren't you trying to hold back
the ocean? You threw the other
fellow out, and what happened? I
came. If you throw me out, some
one else will come. AS long as
the world is starving for rubber,
there will always be some one
else"
A bedlam Of angry Spanish and
English drowned out his words
and behind them Pablo hurried up
the trail, followed by d dozen
horsemen.

Dennis Contempt 1ria
Opens After Defense
Fails 10 Win Delay
Judge Refuses Motion
For Change Of Venue;
Jury Selection Storts

Eugene Dennis, general secre-
tary of the Communist Party in
the United States, went on trial
today In District Court on con-
tempt of Congress charges after
Justice David A. Pine quickly
overruled two defense motions,
designed to delay proceedings.
After Justice Pines rulings, the
prospective jurors were called into
the courtroom and the inpaneling
of jury began shortly before noon.
Dennis is accused of failing to
answer questions properly last April
9 before the House Committee on
Un-American American Activities.
Defense Asks for More Time.
The defense sought to delay the
trial by charging that # had not
had sufficient time to prepare its
case and by asking for change of
venue. The change was asked be-
cause of alleged prejudice against
the defendant by prospective jurors
in the District.
In overruling the motion for a
change of venue, Justice Pine said
he was mot satisfied there exists in
the District :. so great a prejudice
against the defendant that he can
not obtain a fair and impartial
trial here"
At the outset of the hearing, De-
fense Attorney Louis F. McCabe of
Philadelphia asked for continu-
ance of the case. explaining that he
was retained as counsel only last
week.

He called the courts attention
to a passage in the Congressional

Smith, Republican, of Ohio and

ment proceedings against Attorney

Horan Calls for Action
To Provide Funds for
School Construction
Again Demands Sales Tax;
House Names Conferees
On D. c. Revenue Bill
By Don 5. Worren

A last-ditch fight to provide
more money for school construc-
ton was launched today by Rep
resentative Horan, Republican
of Washington as the House
sent to conference with the Sen
ate the Districts $13,500,00C
revenue bill.
Mr.. Horan, head of the House Ap-
propriations Subcommittee in charge
of District appropriations, served
notice at noon that the District
budget situation was in a critical
condition"
He demanded that action be taken
by the House District Committee to
provide more money than would be
raised by the pending revenue bill.
While he was thus making a final
issue over his demands for sales
tax or for legislation permitting q
long-term District government loan,
the House named it's managers on
both the revenue and teacher pay
bills.
Only One Fight Expected.
At the request of Chairman Dirk
sen of the House District Commit
tee, the House named the following
five members to seek agreement with
the Senate on differences over the
two bills: Chairman Dirksen, Rep
resentative Bates, Republican, of
Massachusetts,, who headed the
Fiscal Subcommittee that drafted
both bills, and Representatives
O'Hara, Republican, of Minnesota,
and Mcmillan of South Carolina and
Smith of Virginia. Democrats.
Members of the District Commit
tee have expected there will be but
one fight in the House-Senate Con-
ference Committee. This is over
the Senate's action in eliminating
from the tax bill the amendment
sponsored by Mr.. OHara which
would exempt from the District in
come tax all Federal employees who
make affidavits they are domiciled
in one of the States.
This was knocked out by the
Senate after Senator Cain, Republi-
can, of Washington. in charge of
the revenue bill on the Senate side,
told his colleagues it was only
matter of fairness that Federal en-
ployes living here seven months or
more out of the year and using
