matter of handing the binoculars to the boys,
asking them to look through them, then
checking on the degrees"
That's right, and when his turn came,
Eddie registered seventy - the angle at
which they were set when the police brought
them in Of course, there was the chance that
" policeman might have adjusted them to his
eyes, but had to take it,
What got you started on this line of
thinking?" Reagan asked.
Because have pair hanging in my closet
at home where can pick them up to
watch sailboats on the lake. Someone is for
ever changing them"

He was so cold, hard and defiant - not a

NO." Tessie answered, YOU'RE mistaken.
In the one opportunity that had come to Joe,
he was being brave and proud. Deep inside,
he was nothing more than scared little boy"
She turned the rear vision mirror within

Il know the guilty one. And I'm glad boy

Mrs. Kenwood caught her breath sharply
and closed her eyes, but the tears squeezed
through
"You can't pin this on me-" Big Eddie
yelled.
I'VE AREN'T binning it on anyone" Tessie
said quietly. Were just proving that the
law has ways of determining guilty boy.
Well, Eddie, hadn't you better telephone
your father?"
Eddie sucked in his lower lip and bit it hard.
"Yeah," he said, "the binoculars were in the
glove case, and took 'em. was going to
show 'em to the boys when we met, but the
cops found where I'd hid 'em. Where's
phone can use?"
Don't phone" Reagan said. We'll drive
out and talk things over with your dad; it's
better that way. You boys can go now.'
I'm drive Joe and you home, Mrs Ken
wood" Tessie said.
"I'd like word with you, Miss Terry"
Reagan said. When they we're in his private
office he asked, Howe you tie in the binocu-
lars with the guilty boy?''

planned, land 50 are adjustable to different

soned that any boy who stole pair of binocu-
lars would look through them, and naturally
he would spread the barrels apart until the
lenses were opposite his eyes,"
Logical enough" Reagan said, grinning
The owner" Tessie continued, ''doubtless
had adjusted them to his eyes and had tight
ened the set screw so that the barrels would
stay in a fixed position. People rarely bother
to loosen the set screw, but adjust the barrels
by main strength.
Presumably the barrels would fit the last
set at a seventy degree angle"

haunt me- Let me see the binoculars"
No fingerprints on 'em," Reagan said
We checked. One of those kids was smart
enough to wear gloves. No, we didn't finger

Reds Refuse 10 Recognize
U. S.-Austrian Agreement
BY the Associated Press

VIENNA. July 15.-Lt. Gen. L. v.
Kourasov, Soviet high commissioner,
has warned Chancellor Leopold
Figl that Russia believes the Aus
trian-American agreement for eco
nomic aid to Austria Is mot in
accordance" with the Moscow dec
laration of 1943 and that the agree
ment will not be recognized as le-
gal by the Soviet Union.
THE assumption of unlimited
control over the entire Austrian
economy by one occupying power
constitutes threat against Aus
trian sovereignty" Gen. Kourasov
wrote Mr.. Figl, adding that the
pact was contradictory to four
power agreements concerning Aus
tria.
Gen. Kourasov said aid to the
Austrian economy was very i'm
portant," but asserted that some
of the conditions of the Austrian
American agreement seriously in
fringed on Austrian independence.
Informants said Mr.. Figl would
