By Joe Berry

It was a complete. a total and
final wreck.
Let Mr.. Sully figure out who
did that, thought Rush. That
should prove enough suspicion to
last for at least twenty-four
hours. Then he could stir UP an
other batch. Coupled with Beau
Mars murder it should start the
ruling gentry of Forge City to
wearing armored vests and carry
ing knives.
With the consciousness Of a job
well done Rush left Sully's and
a half hour later was in his room
in the hotel. To all appearances
he might never have left it. Then
he peacefully undreSsed and as
peacefully slept until nine o'clock.
He might have slept longer. but
he awakened to find small wiry
man with tight curly hair calmly
pouring glass Of water into his
open mouth.
"Robin Twist, you son of an
ancient dog!" he shouted.
Hi, Rush." said Robin.
"Pm glad to see you, you
blasted midget. I think I'm going
to need you bad"
While Rush shaved, showered,
and dressed he gave Robin a FILL
in on what had gone before, end
ing with a once over on his raid
of the previous evening. He told
him what to do.
"You will seek the company of
middle aged business men, at a
bar preferably when they have
relaxed. Find out what they think
about Mars death and about the
wrecking of Sully's joint when it
gets out. Intimate that you have
inside information that gang war;
fare has come to Forge City. Say
you have heard that Max Carney
imported gorillas from Chicago to
do the work. Be little dark
cloud on the horizon. Go about
spreading gloom about the fair
name of Forge City and how it is
about to be dragged through the
mud of a nasty gang war.
write me a letter every day
and send it care of General De-
livery. Only. phone in case Of
emergency. And for Pete's sake
keep out of trouble. Pick your
spots. Don't try and tell Max Car
ney himself, that he's importing
torpedoes. Watch it as never be-
fore"
"Can do" said Robin.

THE CLEANUP

Rush finished dressing with
care. He had contracted to escort
Kit English to the dog races.
Kit met him at the door.
We'll take my car" said Kit
'It's around in the garage"
THEY parked in the lot and by
1 passed a line at the ticket
windows, Kits press pass taking
them into the press box. The first
race was ten minutes away and
Rush filed the time inspecting
track and the crowd. A short
stocky man with grazing hair
and a permanent twist that was
almost a sheer at one corner OF
his mouth was entering the box
behind them. First came armed
guards, their arms bullying at
their shoulders. Then the palace
favorites. They surrounded the
short man and helped him to his
seat and saw to his comfort.
Rush looked him over carefully
and turned back to Kit.
"That would be our Mr.. Sully,"
he said.
'It would"
Hes heard about Mr.. Mari
and he's taking no chances"
Rush indicated the men in the
box.
The race was being called and
they turned their attention to the
track. In the semi silence follow
ing the initial roar Rush heard
further commotion to the rear. He
turned and saw a man forcing his
way to Sully's side. The excited
voice of the man penetrated the
crowd noise briefly and Rush
caught two words. Joint and
wrecked. Sully's face turned to
stone. He spoke briefly to the
men on each side of him. The
word was passed and the exodus
began.
"Now, I wonder what that
was" said Rush to Kit who was
also watching with a puzzled look
on her face.
81 don't know, but I'd be a
poor newSpaperman's girl Friday
if didn't try and find out. Come
on.
Lets find a phone. and get
Pedrick."
That's for me, thought Rush.
He followed her without another
word.
Go be centinued)

Chapter 10

THE murder Of Mari had no
place in Rush's picture. They
didn't murder people in Forge
City. It was too well organized.
Somebody wanted Mari out OF
the way and that fact in itself
pointed to a rift in the lutte. All
was not well among the men who
ran Forge City.
It also pointed a path for Rush.
Nothing boils a pot like suspicion.
It seemed that suspicion was in
Dictated and it was obviously UP
to Rush to supply it.
Late that night he armed him
self with a Jimmy and a fash
light left his hotel and walked
steadily for almost mile.
The sign he expected to see
hung there against the dull late
night sky. 1t was unlit now, but
an hour earlier it had gloWed its
neon brightness in the letters
Sully's.
IN matter of seconds he split
i wood from wood and the door
sprung open. On the other side
was his destination. Mr.. Card
Sully's pride and Joy. a thing OF
beauty indeed. AS neat a night
club as Rush had ever visited in
the dead of night.
With a sigh of pure joy be
moved behind the bar and found
a bottle. He kissed it lightly and
heaved it with all his might at a
towering stack of glasses. They
rained to the floor in thousand
pieces and a tremendous star APP
peared in the large mirror behind
them. 80
Again the sigh of almost boyish
glee and then Rush went to work
seriously. He smashed every glass
and every mirror behind the bar
With his jimmy he looSened the
bar itself from the floor and
turned it over on its side. From
the kitchen he brought a can Of
I've well mixed with hot water
This he sloshed over the midget
dance floor, over the rich carpet
ing. Grapes came tumbling down
to be sprinkled with a rich mix
ture of bourbon, scotch and gin
He opened bottles of champagne
and fixed them at the oil paint
ings with which Sully had deco
rated the few bare walls.

Opportunists Hike PlywOOd Prices

TACOMA, R)-"Opportunists' who take advantage of desperate buyers have caused the recent sky rocketing of plywood prices at consumer levels, particularly in eastern markets, it was charged today by N. O. Cruver. president of the Wheeler, Osgood company, local plywood manufacturers.
 He advised prospective plywood purchasers here and elsewhere to question the price of plywood of fered by obscure suppliers. "The ridiculous prices being asked-and paid-in certain centers are caused by speculators who obtain ply wood by devious means and take advantage of the current tremen- dous demand to reap huge profits, " Cruver said.
 Cruver said he spoke only for his company, but the heads of Ia coma's four other plywood manu- featuring firms voiced their ap- proval of his remarks, which fol- lowed a similar warning in New York by Lawrence Ottinger, the president of the United States Ply wood Corp.

Many Questions
 Asked About
 Public Lands

WASHINGTON, (P) - Unc ( Sam has 419, ,5O6,842 acres of va cant public land, 25O,OOO,OOO acres of it in Alaska.
 Vacant public land, the bureau of land management said today, is public domain lying idle or devot- ed to grazing purposes.
 It can be obtained by individuals by compliance with federal laws, the first requirement being that the land cannot be ordered by mail but must have been visited and inspected by the applicant be- fore he starts his legal papers through.
 And now, with thousands of vet erans seeking home sites, the bur eau of land management says most of the questions it gets about the public domain deal with the possi- bilities that veterans can get some.
 A large part of the vacant pub lie land in the continental United States is used for grazing-l32,- 266,l4l acres of the l69,506,842 held-but none of that in Alaska is so classified. Most of the re- mainder, the bureau said, is of such type that it is doubtful that much of it could rightfully be clas- sified as for homestead or settle ment use from an economic view point.
 It might be surprising to some people, but the vacant public lands range from II acres in Indiana and 528 in Missouri to the Alaskan to- tai.
 The biggest continental holdings are in the west and mid-western states, in addition to the 250,000,- 900 acres of Alaskan land classi-
