Jigger said warmly, Il ask you

mill artist can assure you that an
extraordinarily high price will be
met And then to top it, the artist
forecast is realized; the promised
price IS met by somebody. and

Sundemann looked alarmed by
the outburst. A hand flew to his
breast and his eyes searched Jig
gers face. "So?-Is something
wrong?" he asked anxiously.
Something is Jigger said
grimly.
What could be?-My God,

Jigger said, I'm sorry to harry

the dealers imagination. Don't

But you've been exhibiting

Six, maybe eight months"
Did any paintings sell during
all that time; l mean, excepting
the two you mentioned?"
The dealer shook his mead.
"How were Arents' paintings
priced during those earlier
months?"
There was an instructive hesita-
ton. as if the point were a nail
threatening his flesh. Sundemann
SAID almost inaudibly. Two hun
dred and fifty. Sometimes $400"
Jigger drove the nail in. "1ow
then did you justify the sudden
$500 prices to yourselfl"
Sundemann didn't attempt to
reply. He shook his head doleful-
ly, in an almost naive acceptance
of guilt. Jigger asked, did yuI

Sundeman looked into Jigger'S
face unhappily. A moment of in
ner warfare was expressed in his
face. The dealer was plainly a
man of some integrity, and a man
who made a creed and supersti-
ton both of stunning all things
irregular. He said, "Mr Merle
Leighton - he bought two Of
Arents' paintings"
THERE was brief delay in re-
L action and then Jigger's mouth
fell open. Leighton? Not the ra-
dio Leighton. the radio advisor

Sundemann nodded affirmation

cautiously. Impossible that a man

Jigger quickened his stride pur-
posefully and REQ hurried along
beside him. You're not going to
pay Leighton a call this late?"
Red objected.
It was far past ten o'clock. The
lights in shop windows were go

drawn. 1t was toe late for a pc

Jigger came to a stop. "Tomor-

two ordinances numbered 438.
One of them is the fire proven

restriction governing certain
area. The defendant in this case
had been parked a couple of miles
from that area. So they still did
not know what 438 meant on his
ticket.
Nobody knew. 1t turned out
that the traffic court did not have
