Raff broke a dismal silence. “I'll have to be getting back to my patient"

Fitz wm loathe to end the fascinating discuitsion. "Where was the printing pre** found?" he asked. Raff turned at the door. "Tn the old observatory." he said. “In the tower room that hasn't been used for years.” The words thudded against Terry's dulled mind suddenly echoed with ringing meaning. “In the tower room!” She was on her feet She screamed at* Raff. "Did you say the tower room?" Raff gave her a startled frown. “Ye*." he said gently. "Why ?" "Why?” Terry could hear her shriek of hysteria, but couldn’t lower her voice. "Because Brooks is right, then!" she cried. “He's innocent!" The two men were regarding her with skeptical interest. "But they have witnewc" Raff reminded her. "They've seen him going there nights for a long time." "Os course he went there nights!" Terry shouted. "But not to print pamphlets! I know what I'm talking about and I can prove It!" She

Wermuth Advocates Stern Rule Os Japs Honolulu, Oct. 21-tl'Pl— MajJ Arthur Wermuth, the "oue-mau army" who killed 116 Japanese before he was captured on Bataan, today advocated a stern, realistic military government for Japan. Wermuth arrived here late ye®terday with 3.000 liberated American war prisoners aboard the U. 8. Marine Shark. Then b< took hie first automobile ride since 1911 and j went shopping. Clutching a big. soft Teddy bear. Wermuth said he hoped the American occupation army in Japan "doesn't go soft.” "I think th<- Japs should be placed under the hardert, sternest moot realistic military government posaibk'," he said. “I found the Japanese civilians held just as much hatred toward the white mgn and were just as cruel as the military.” Wermuth said he rated "no worm- than th'- reat of the prisoners" at a Mukden prkson camp al , tlwug.i the Japanese were aware of his military record ou Bataan.

"It would be quicker. That convention hall will be a madhouse now." But Terry was on her way to the door. "I can't say what I've got to say over a telephone. Fm seeing Artigas in parson." Raff’s hand was still on the door knob “But what is It you know, Terry?" he paid. “I know if there was a printing press found in that room." Terry told him, "it was planted there—some time during the last two nights." "You mean you've been going to tlie tower room, too?” ’•Yee," Terty said slowly. “For weeks I've gone down there nights because it was quiet and a good place to write—letters." “But you said Brooks went there." Fits was regarding her through squinted, sardonic eye* “Did he help you write letters?’’ “I saw him there only once," Terry said, “and then just for a moment He was up on the balcony. Said he came there often—to think." Fitz started to murmur, but thought better of IL Instead, he said, “Come on, I'll go to the hall with you." “Let me know what happens," Raff called after them as they hurried down the hallway toward the elevator.

When their cab had gone several blocks, Fitr broke Into his low whistle. "I don't like to intrude. Kitten," he said, "but you seem to have gotten yourself pretty well involved with this Kimberly gent." Terry sent him a pleading look. "Do you think we can convince Artigaa?" she whispered fearfully. Fitz looked sulky. “I wouldn t know," he said. The cab drew up In the loading zone in front of the hall. Fitz pabl the driver and they hurried inside. Fitz was perfectly right It was a madhouse. Throngs of people buffeting in suffocating eddies. Confusion wafting with the rising haze of cigar smoke. For a minute the inunerulty of the place overwhelmed Terry. Thl* was'the nominating convention at a great nation. Among these torrents of excited, chattering people were th* leaders of the country. What could *he hope to do with her poor Utile story?
