Morgan Co. vice-president, and a J. S. Chamber of Commerce president, speaking for the Committee for Economic Development; shows there is a substantial split between certain big American bankers and business leaders on the measure.1 " ' ' 1 ' ' The split comes naturally between the business and industrial community whose prosperity depends on increasing !iie volume of world trade, and the bankers, represented by he American Bankers Association, whose prosperity . defends not altogether on the volume of bur' exports, but part!v on cuirency fluctuations, good and bad. ; Tlie ABA says that the Bretton Woods currency stabilisation fund is unsound. By what yardstick,? ' 1 r 1 The most unsound business practice we can think of is a vet urn to the international currency practices of , the thirties barter, dumping, blocked markets, depreciation, multiple currencies and the like. ,v' ' ' Yet that is exactly where the ABA would drive us. Uness we give Britain and the rest of the debtor nations some substantial support for their currencies, they must return to :he stvategems of the thirties. They are countries with large

blocked debts and the devices ol . quotas ana depreciation would help them out, though for only a short while. . .. .... We, on the other hand, would lose most from fluctuating urrencies and trade restrictions, for ours is a large, favorable rade balance and the greatest amount of goods for export. I we can buy a limit 'on currency controls and depreciation by lelping create a mechanism for the flexible h wiling of trade eficits, it's to our advantage. That's why Bretton Woods is to our advantage. ' ' ..'' ': : Fortunately, short-sightedness in the field of world economic order1 is characteristic. Only of some bankers'' in the ABA, Members of the CED and other businessmen have lbhff 'i go perceived that their wpll-beinglies1 in the well-being of .lie whole foreign market in an expanding world trade and n sound currencies. : .. .

SOCIETY

,.1 CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE' ., Danielle aid, "I -feel better than I have ever since it happened. Do yon mind my chucking the whole business on you?" Aggie grinned. "Yeah, it's quite a load." . . She sighed. "You're a very funny man.- You look like a cartoon professor. In the club you're about as Comfortable as a rabbit in a lion's oave. And yet the things you know! The things you've done!" ' "Nonsense. Sifting dust in ruined cities. Measuring the heads of native-rug weavers." "Nonsense, yourself! 1 had Dad borrow a couple of your books from Sarah. You've got more nerve than Tarzan and a vocabulary that makes a sap out of Webster's dictionary. Come on. Take me to dinner. It'll make people talk. Whoever I dine with it makes people talk. You'll blush and that's ridiculous for a man that attacked a gorilla with a garden fork." . Aggie blushed as they started into the club. . Danielle took his arm. "I wish things weren't like this," she said. "I wish I'd met you long ago and some other way." She laughed. "Or married you when I was six. Like those natives in India you wrote about. You'd make such an interesting husband. So nice to go on trips with. There's Beth! Are you as keen about her as the rumors say? She's extremely beautiful and I 'suppose having spent so much time-in the tropics you prefer brunettes."- ' She looked at him wickedly and his blush deepened. But the glimmer in her eyes faded back to anxiety. "I'm incorrigible," she said. ' Aggie walked back to Rainbow Lodge in the early part of the evening. He had left Danielle at the club ,,tilh Ralph Patton and Beth and Bill Caliler. Left her sitting V.ith them, talking, killing time, listening to the radio. It seemed to Aggie that, having told all she knew, she had completely relaxed. Tl.fc burden was now on his shoulders. He had no idea what to do 'about it. If Sarah were only a little 'If.ss silent and truculent more contiding he would tell her. He decided, as he walked, that he would tell Sarah part of it, anyway. He ln-eded help: She was in bed. Around her were unopened books, unnlayed games, unread magazines. She looked at .her nephew with disturbed eyes and said, "If you want to learn patience and humility, try' the iiiumps! What's a foot I" '. . 1 . "Well for one thing they Jmven'f found Bogarty's body." "I know it! Wes was here making a sick call and prying harder tinm a burglar's jimmy on the sublet of Hank." !( "I wsis wondering." Aggie said, "if you happen to have any old fox traps lying about?" ,

'Sarah' squinted at him.' "Thousands. Help yourself; Wes told'me about the fox. What good will it do you to catch it?" He shrugged "I just have a hunch I'd like to that's all. Like to see that collar. Like to check the teeth with pictures of the bite on Calder's hand. I'm not kidding." "Well if you really want to I'll have Windle get you some, in the morning. I doubt if it will help you find out who killed Jim " "Oh, I know that. What I want to find out is where's Hank?" Sarah was staring as glassily as he had expected. "You know ?" 1 He was almost supercilious. "Oh, yes. George Davis." "Don't be an idiot!" "He had reasons for doing it of which we are all aware. He's strong enough and decisive enough. His alibi for that night is rotten. Circumstantial evidence shows he was probably on the scene of the crime shortly after diagnosing you removing traces of his original presence. A brilliant analytical mind broken down after years of morbid and vengeful brooding. Oh, yes. George is our man. Question is shall I turn him in? Danielle put it up to me." "Danielle! "What's she got to do with it?" i , "Oh she did the rcdhanded catching. 'V . . "You're not serious, Aggie!" "Perfectly." His aunt was silent for an unconscionably long time. "George didn't do it," she said finally. "I've known him like the palm of my hand everi since he cracked his first speller. At least if he did do it he's gone crazy." . . "People do," said Aggie. '.'I'd suspect Danielle herself before I'd dream of George! I'd suspect Byron Waite. Or that strong, silent young Patton boy. Greed, there. Beth who hated her father. Old John, here. Bill or Martha or Jack Browne even. Or myself. George is as relentless as rock! His sense of value? wouldn't permit him to waste time thinking about murder. As a surgeon, he's seen too much of life and death to be interested in it in any but an intellectual way. Rubbish, Aggie! George never did it!" "I -.wanted . your reaction," he grinned. "And boy! did I get it." Sarah grunted. "Nevertheless, I'm going to phone Wes and tell him to come over right away. And you're going to hear a sot of circumstances that will prob, ably result in the immediate arrest of your physician." ' Sarah sagged. She seemed, suddenly, old . and scared and tincertain. "I" She shook her head. "Never mind. Go ahead. Maybe you're right. Maybe I'm an old fool. Maybe the confidence I have in my knowledge of neonle is wholly. misplaced! Who'' . All my life. I've

been a Miss Fixit. I haven't hesi

tated to use any stratagem I could

think of to make people do what 1 believed was good for them. Usually I've been right. But I could be wrong fundamentally." "There's something," Aggie said, "about not being your brother's keeper, in the Bible. A good program. I'm going to phone." : He did so. Wes Wickman, however, was not at Headquarters. He was not expected until morning. The sergeant offered to send up another man. Aggie decided to wait until morning. It was a terrible decision not from Aggie's viewpoint but from the viewpoint of chance. He went to bed awhile later and fell into a troubled sleep. A creaking of the stairs woke him up. Sarah pushed open his door as the lights clicked on. She was wearing a heavy wrapper a velvet one. Upon her form it looked like a fur coat. A towel, under which an ice bag audibly squdged, encircled her neck. There was red on her cheeks high aud spotty like bad makeup. ' ' ' . : "You're worse!" Aggie exclaimed. "I'll get Davis!" She shook her head and sat down in the largest chair his room contained. She thrust' out her feet, which were encased in lambskin boots. "Get nie a stool. I want to talk." , Aggie shoved his arms into the sleeves of his dressing gown. There was Tio stool in his room. He made one, of a box and a pillow. He arranged his aunt's feet, and stripped a blanket from his bed to tuck around her. Then he switched on a bridge lamp and sat down, facing her. He smiled, and she smiled bacK at him. . "Shoot," he said. Her first words were an apology to herself rather than a prelude to a definite subject. "I can't ask you. not to repeat what I'm going to tell you, Aggie, because, it isn't that kind of information and this is not a time when innocent people can be required to keep secrets. I must not say what I'm going to and yet I've got to. I decided, only now, I'm old and I'm ill and I'm not as astute as I used to be. 1 determined that you would have to judge about things just as Danielle evidently has done." .She smiled again. "It's funny. Nobody has done my thinking or my judging ever." Aggie reflected her expression and waitcik "It's about Hank Rnrarly. Si nee he hasn't turned up, J'm oiii'' to

tell you. Davis threatened me. if ' talked. I had a long note from Waite yesterday in the same vpin and another today. I personally Haven't anything much to lose. They have. Which is ihe reason I've kept my mouth shut." (To he continued) o.vruti'1. iyn, in- I'liiiin n-' Dilr ll.wr.i i.j h it. K.mtiri., Sr-ii ir n-s.
