feel her nearness, the press of her
body when she moved around the
counter and placed arms about him
to hold him erect. His knees were
giving away. Except for her he
would have fallen.
He was aware Of other people in
the room. But it was her voice to
which he was listening-a soft, mur-
muring kind of a voice, full of COM
passion. He didn't struggle when he
felt the blackness coming on him.
It was better so. It was better to
go now, in the arms Of a lovely,
sympathetic stranger, than to hang
on a few feeble months more in a
foreign land. Finally to die alone
and unmourned.
And how infinitely much better to
go this way, clean. Life had given
him the best of the deal, after all.
The policemen looked down at the
still figure lying in the girls arms,
at the ugly purple hole high in the
bony, barred chest. One asked the
room in general: ''Who would have
thought sick old bum would have
the CUTS to try to stop a hold-up
with a pipe?"
An enigmatic smile lay across the
lips Of the dead John Todd. That
was his only answer.

u. S. Newspaper
Celebrates Second
Anniversary in Siam

BANGKOK, SIAM. - The only
American newspaper between
Rome and Manila celebrated its
second birthday anniversary in
Siam.
The paper is the Bangkok Post
and it's the handiwork Of Alex
ander Macdonald, New Englander
who has been poking around the
corners of the world for IS of his
40 years.
The Yankee editor came to Bang
kok as a cloak-and-dagger agent
Of the wartime Office of Strategic
Services. He fell in love with the
country. Now he is the best-known
and most influential foreigner since
Anna Leonowens, the English
school teacher immortalized by
"Anna and the King of SIAM"
Editing paper back home was
never like this Macdonald says
Yellow-robed Buddhist priests had
to bless the presses and editorial
Offices before the Post was recog-
nized as a full-fedged newspaper.
Every word in the eight-page
daily is set by hand by printers
who don't know English. Type-set-
ting machines are unknown
There's a constant fight to main
tain the American tradition of tell
ing both sides of the story impair
TALLY. Governments change fast
in tubulent Siam, but Macdonald
finally has made his point against
censorship. When ordered to strike
something out of the paper, he just
leaves the space blank. The Post
has come out with no leading head
line and the main column just white
newsprint. Now he isn't bothered.

The taxi driver, Mark Corley, said
he opened door to the car to COM

apparently stepped on both the start

Corley and other witnesses said
the car spun into the street in a

quoted Corley, the car ran over Mrs.

Manuscript Of Old Bible
Discovered in Palestine

NEW HAVEN, CONN.-The dis
covery in Palestine of the earliest
known manuscript Of the Old Testa-
ment Book of Isaiah was an
nounced by Yale university.
Preserved for centuries in a mon
astery in the Holy Land, the manu-
script recently was identified by
scholars at the American School of
Oriental Research at Jerusalem,
the university said.
Prof. Millar Burrows Of Yale is
director of the school, one Of two
maintained in the Near East by
leading American universities.
The manuscript was found in a
well-preserved scroll of parchment
dating back to about the first CEN
tury B. c. The university said the
earliest among other known COM
plete texts of Isaiah were tran
scribed in about the ninth century
A. D.
The manuscript came from the
library of the Syrian Orthodox
monastery of st. Mark in Jerusa-

jeep and he was conscious of their
scrutiny.
Down the street the lights in the
money exchange went dim. He rose
from the bench and stepped out
briskly. The prowl car had turned
the corner, the patrol jeep was out
of sight. Todd judged the distance
to the International Line; noticed
with satisfaction that the officials
had all moved inside their guard
house. A quick move, fast sprint,
and the business would be done.
Once across the line he could cas-
lily lose himself among the shadows
between the adobe buildings, and as
easily stay hidden until train time.
TURNING abruptly into the
l. Money Exchange, he saw the
girl in the red dress coming toward
the counter with a tray of money
from the safe. Her eyes were very
wide, very brown, and she was very
pale. In front of the counter, his
back toward Todd, there stood a
man. A tardy customer, perhaps,
but desperation told Todd it was
too late now to back out.
He gripped the pipe in his pocket
and poked the stem of it against
the cloth convincingly. He curbed
the fine tremor that was coming
back to his fingers and spoke in
voice made harsh and sharp by the
urgency Of the moment.
"Put that down and raise your
hands,"
The man at the counter jerked
around. His hand stabbed out. Todd
felt a tearing, ripping sensation
high in his chest even as the shrill
bark of a small caliber pistol hit
his ears. In a continued motion,
the man broke into a dash for the
door.

THE END OF THE LINE
By CHARLES s. PARK

Only instructive reaction made
Todd stick out long leg and trip
him up. The same motivation
caused him to dive forward onto the
PROSTATE figure, to scramble for the
little gun and wrench it from tenn
porarily limp fingers. The heavy
blow delivered to the base Of the
mans skull with the butt Of the
pistol was a part of the same pat
tern.
It was then that realization caught
up with Todd. He arose slowly, feel
ing the pain in his chest sudden,
live thing. He moved back to the
counter; leaned against it. The
room became a whirling wheel, and
he it's hub.
He never heard the girl speak into
the telephone. The shrek of a 81
rem was only high note piercing
the roaring in his ears. But he did

California Gives Salmon
A Lift Over Dry Stretch

SAN FRANCISCO.-California Is
doing things for fish. Five tank
trucks are being assigned to ferry
salmon overland during the spawn
ing season along a 30-mile stretch Of
the San Joaquin river, which has
developed salmon-proof sandbars in
a drouth.
Steelhead trout in the Monterey
area have acquired new spawning
grounds up the Big Sur river be-
cause game wardens blasted out
big rock which has blocked spawn
ing runs since before palefaces set
tied in these parts. Rainbow trout
minnows now are brought from the
icy waters of the Mount Shasta up
lands and raised to six-inch size
in the warm water of a valley
hatchery. This shortens the grow
ing time and makes it possible to
plant them earlier in game waters
where they will grow up to be big
fish and-that's right-get hooked.

The Thinker-He works his way
doggedly to the counter in the line
(you're just a few behind him) and
then pauses for Station Announce
ment, or something. Seems he never
can decide beforehand, so you have
to wait until he makes up his alleged
mind. But by that time the bell is
about ready to ring.
The Critic-He doesn't like what
you have on your plate-and doesn't
hesitate to tell you so in the most
unappetizing term. Comparing your
tapioca to fish eyes and your spa
ghetti to worms doesn't help your
appetite one bit. It doesn't help his

in the armed forces, and equality
of employment opportunities. These
points have been covered by the
President
Mr.. White said that he went over
some figures with the President,
showing that the Negro vote polled
by the Truman Barkley ticket
meant the difference between win
ming and losing in several key
States. He stressed that these fig
ures had been carefully checked by
the associations branches. He esti-
mated that Negroes voted 3-to-1 for
the Truman -Barkley ticket over the
Dewey Warren ticket.
He cited, for example, Illinois,
where he said in ii big Negro pre-
cincts in Chicago President Truman
got 235,053 votes to Gov. Dewey's
106,512. The Presidents majority
in Illinois was a little over $4,000.
The Negro vote for Henry A. Wal
lace was almost negligible every
place except in Harlem and Brook
lyn, according to Mr.. Whites figures.
