fed. taking things as they came
and. apparently. asking for moth
ing from life.
Max reached inside his jacket
and with a tug pulled his gun
from its leather holster. Charnot
turned. He faced Max and the
smile was still on his face.
s'WHY have YOU taken a pistol
out?" he asked.
Max's lips twisted in a humor-
less grin. ITO protect myself"
From me?"
That's it. From you. To pro-
tect myself I have to kill YOU"
The automatic came up, leveled
at Charnot breast.
Really! What harm could !
do you. | have shown myself only
too ready to help YOU"
Max stepped back. When he
fired he did not want blood on
himself. Max could think about
details like that.
He knew where he was now,
and he was confident. He said,
To-day the papers and the radio
will be full of a robbery that took
place last night at the Rocville
Casino" Max tipped his head
toward the suitcase and the
brief case. "A robbery carried out
by a woman dressed in the green
coat and the white dress which
you've seen and driving a gray
Citroen with the same number
plates as the one up in the rail-
way cut. I wouldn't want you to
enlighten them that the woman
was a man. a man you could
describe very we'll"
CAARNoT did not say anything
for a moment, and then very
gently he began to laugh. The
noise irritated Max.
Shut up!"
Charnot shook his head and
behind him the sum giinted on
the blue sea.
IF you want to shut me up -
you have your pistol" )" he said
evenly.
Max took him at his word. He
wanted this thing done and fin
ished. He pressed the trigger of
the automatic. There was a dull
click.

MENACE AT The CASINO
Continued from page t,cessty

He had no time for surprise at
this, for Charnot jumped for
him. He went down with Charnot
on top of him. and Charnot was
heavy and powerful. Max was
no match for him. A great fist
slammed against his jaw, and
Max went out.
When he came to. he was
propped up on a settee with his
wrists and feet bound. Charnot
was sitting on a chair not far
from him. holding the automatic.
He was carefully feeding bullets
back into the magazine. As Max
groaned and moved. Charnot
looked up and smiled. He tossed
the gun in the palm Of his great
hand.
ssWHEN you tainted by your
car and | lifted you up to give
you brandy" he said calmly, Il
felt the gun under your jacket. I
do not trust people who carry
guns SO ! emptied it for you. At
least you will not be charged with
murder - not my murder any
way. But what a lot of trouble
you have given yourself - and
so unnecessarily, You could have
walked out of this villa and have
feared nothing from me"
"You think / believe that?
You can't take chances in my
business, snarled Max.
Charnot shook his head.
Chance. my dear fellow, is part
of life. You can't rule it out -
and this time it worked against
you. You could have walked out
of here without a worry in the
world. I couldn't have described
you, or your suitcase or anything
about you. I've been blind for the
last ten years.
That's why live here alone,
happy in this little world which
know so well that / can move
about it without the need for
eyes. My eyes are in my ears and
my fingers. my ears that heard
you pull a pistol from a creaking
leather holster, my fingers that
first discovered and distrusted
that gum"
Charnot got up and began to
walk toward the telephone in the
hallway. The End

another of her safariS into
deepest Tucsonia, in the heart

has learned many new and
strange things about this Con-

to you. CThe following are
excerpts from her new book
"As our safari moved down

they were celebrating an old
native rite, a picnic in honor
of Ruth Buchman's 18th birth
day.

drove into enemy country

The Shepherds
l0menfufion

In my little town in the Car
pathian Mountains
The shepherds flute is silent
The rulers became violent.
The shepherd does not lead
his flock
He sings no more, he is silent.
He is ruled by a tyrant.
He dances no more
His feet are chained
He sits at the foot of the
mountain
Watches his flock of sheep
disappear
He lives in fear.
The golden sun does not shine
any more
AS heretofore
The sky is covered with
darkened clouds
Any moment it will break out
in tears
The bright moon has diSap
peared.
The silvery stars do not spar
kle any more.
The shepherds spirit is damp
ened
His heart is grieved
The nights are gloomy anC
Stilled
The shepherd is sad
He believes the world has
gone mad.

'It's a disgrace" Siegfried

Weisberger blamed televi-

"Television is supplying the

In Tribute
By JOSEPH WEISS

Jan Masaryk, a good friend
of the Jewish people, lived a
turbulent life as the son of
the first president of Czecho-
slovakia. He experienced BAN
ishment from the Austrian
Hungarian Empire with his
father for the latter'S reVo-
lutionary activities. Later he
experienced the joy of seeing
his country become an indie
pendent nation, and still later
the ignomy of its downfall,
first at the hands of the NaZiS
and later the Communists.
1 recall the time when my
friend, Jan, said publicly that
he would never return to his
country until his people,
which included the exiled
Jews, were permitted to re-
turn to Czechoslovakia when
that country was liberated
from the NaZiS.
1t is five years since his
tragic death, labelled a sui
eide by the Communists, but
known to be an act of vic
lence by all who knew his ma
ture. In memory of that
event, 1 recalled the peaceful

learned.
The former State Depart
ment employe, who gained
wide attention for his violent
anti-Zionism after the appear
ance of a magazine article en-
titled "IsraePs Flag Is Not
Mine!" was a Tucson visitor
for several days, during which
time he stayed at a ranch
near Tubac, autographed
books in at least two local
book shops, was interviewed
on the radio, and addressed
a semi-private gathering of 27
of the most influential citi-
ZenS of Tucson.
Among those at the dinner
were several leading bank
ers, educators, retired officers
and businessmen. Included
was William Phillips, former
ambassador to Italy, a State
Department official for 80
years before his retirement
six years ago. Phillips, a Tue
son winter visitor, said this
week that LilienthaPs views
are his, when asked to com
ment on the authors talk.
Wrote Magazine Piece
The author, who has &C
cused Israel of dangerously
complicating the lives of Jews
everywhere and is now endan'
gering judaism" has become
a stormy international figure
since his Readers Digest ar
ticle attacking Zionism ap
peared, and especially since
his strongly anti-ISrael, anti
Zionist book, "What Price Is
rael?" was published.
In a KVOA interview, he
confined his remarks most
Iy to a reStatement of the
thesis of his book, namely
that Americas foreign pol
icy is too "One-Sided." He
asserted that the United
States favOrs Israel too
much, and that the infant
state is going to have to
make concessions Ton Arab
refugees, boundaries, etc.
if there is to be peace in
the Middle East. He said
that the average Arab didn't
dislike Americans, but was
opposed to our foreign pol
icy, which, he said, discrim-
mated against the Arabs
Apparently, his radio com
ments were rather mild com
pared to accusations he mad

at the Pioneer dinner party.
A reliable source, who asked
not to be identified, stated
that Lilienthal blasted Israel
for abusing" Arabs living
there, and also for not taking
back the Arabs who had left.
A member of his audience
pointed out that the Arabs
who had departed had done
so at the command of Arab
leaders.
Has No Sympathy
Continuing, Lilienthal, the
source stated, said he had no
sympathy for Jewish refu-
gees, adding that in his opin-
ion they should not have a
homeland in Israel and that
the Balfour declaration did
not intend to give them any
rights as a nation.
The speaker evoked a few
raised eyebrows when he as
serted that every American
Jew who helps Israel ought
to go there, the Posts source
declared. And he said, it was
reported, that Jews ought to
quit running to the State De-
partment; it is getting the
government against them. 1t
was his opinion that America
ought to assist the Arabs
more because they outnum-
Der the Jews. Had we done so,
he claimed, the Arabs would
have progressed much far
ther.
A listener pointed out to
the speaker later that the
Arabs had an enormous reVe-
nue. from oil with which they
could uplift themselves, but
had used the revenues for
other purposes.
The visitor also stated
that Churchill had said that
the Jews had no right to q
homeland.
Following the talk, which
lasted about an hour, there
was a question and answer
period.
The Posts source, who as
sailed Lilienthal vigorously
for his strong remarks, ac-
cused the speaker of being
wholly anti-Israel in every
respect"
LilienthalS address is be-
lieved to be the beginning of
an anti-Zionist propaganda
campaign which, the Post has
been informed, has selected
Tucson as one of the focal
points.
