Congress and the people of the United States is that the war aas made us, in large part, trustees for world recovery. The gigantic forces which carried a Sullivan County farm boy to the Elbe, an East Side soda-jerker to Okinawa and a Detroit mechanic to Chungking have put us in the business of world-power and have conferred upon us reponsibility for world-government. The military victories of the United .Nations have, moreover, created an American equity in the affairs of every nation in the world and have, at the same time, confirmed a world-equity in the internal affairs of the United States. Congress cannot legislate on behalf of Joe Doaks of Podunk without also legislating with respect to Joseph Docques of Paris, Comrade Doksky of Leningrad nad Josidoki of Nagasaki. On the political front, the events of the last ten years have supplied conclusive evidence that what happens on the Danube, the Volga and the Yangtze-Kiang are of vital importance towevejry boy and girl on the banks of the Wabash, Columbia and Ohio rivers- A paranoic brainstorm in a Munich beer-hall means that American flood flowed in rivers .from Guadalcanal to Normandy. , V ' '; ' ' ; On the economic front, the American scene has changed beyond recognition".

Unrivaled military prestige, naval and aiv power . . . . The political influence and friendships fostered by and inherited from Franklin D. Roosevelt ... Substantial national unity and political "good feeling-" The problem which faces the people and the Congress is to translate this unparalleled economic and political power into a world-wide system which will render permanent and satisfactory the prosperity of the American nation in a world of prosperous nations. The basic assignment of Congress is to legislate-for the welfare of the American people. Experience shows that American welfare political and economic is closely linked with the welfare of other nations, that there is no country so remote as not to constitute either a market or a menace for the United States. For this reason, rather than for "dogooding," Congress is at last leaning toward a policy of economic responsibility in what used to be. purely a matter of domestic pressures and local interests.

SYNOPSIS As Roger Vaughn, the American polo player, approaches Budapest, a girl dashes out of a nearby woods astride a black horse. Thinking it is a runaway, Roger gives chase on his hunter, "Janos." He finally comes upon the girl in a clearing, calmly astride her panting black. She is friendly but uneasy and, as she talks, turns her head as though listening for something in the forest. Roger is fascinated by this mysterious beauty who will reveal nothing except that she is not from Budapest. She tells him he must not try to ascertain her identity. CHAPTER II "Sorry," ha repeated, "but the damage is done. I've got to l'md out who you are and why you pretended all along- that you were riding just for fun. Only a fool would go tearing1 through the woods the way you did And, Mademoiselle Mystery, you're not a fool." Bright bankers flying in her cheeks she straightened in the saddle and pulled on her small cloche of brown felt. "You will rut meddle in my affairs. I am quite able to take care of myself." "I wonder? Hello who's coming'"' From the depths of the forest a distant thudding of hoofs could be heard. The girl instantly caught up her reins and the bright line of her lips narrowed. ' "Adieu, Monsieur. I forbid you to follow!" In the girl's voie rang the unmistakable inflections of one accustomed to obedience. ' 4 .She flung the startled American a kiss from her fingertips and, spurring the black mare, leaped a faKen log to vanish among the mossy trunks of this ancicr.t forest. Roger Vaughn probably would have disregarded her fiat, imperative as it was, had an ominous crackle of underbrush not sounded behind the clearing. Hoarse shouts eame ringing out of the shadows. Who could be pursuing this strange, lovely girl who, in the past half hour, had so unaccountably aroused his interest? A furious husband? A jilted lover? Perhaps a thief? This was a lonely forest after all.' Before he knew it Vanghn set his gray in motion towards the approach.4.ig horseman. He reined about and his heart felt like a iosed fist because pourling along the same track he had followed appeared two red faced men in nni.tard colored uniforms, Police! lie thought .to recotrhize. Ihem by their grel'ii col lars, the galloons of the satnfevolor Uuxhiny on their cuiTs and their curious, loaf-shaped helmets of bli.ck felt. Carbines slatting across O.eir broad shoulder's and curious huic plumes of Minorca feathers a-flutter- on their helmets, the two fural policemen bore down on a very bewildered young American. 'Suspiciously eyeing Vaughn, the foremost rid;r. a big lieutenant, reined in his lathered horse, saluted and commenced to speak in quick, gut-'.ural Hungarian, pointing again and again towards the far end of Ibe clearing. The other policeman, younger and with prominent cheekbones, also checked his bjg black jreiding and began peering among tne trees with obvious impatience. . To give the fleeing girl as much of n start as possible, Vaughn let them ,'tioth talk several moments before he raised a hand to check the torrent of queries. "I don't understand. B'dte spreckin Sie Devised." ' "Arh, so? We look for a pret'ry young woman who rides a black marc.

While he was speaking, the lieutenant's shrewd black eyes bored into the Americans cool gray ones, then studied the trampled ground. "I see you have recently been in conversation with her.

fore I thought she was being run away with so I overtook her." The police lieutenant perhaps read some of Roger Vaughn's amazement and bewilderment for he continued civilly enough. "You are a stranger, mein Hrrr, so I will only warn you that to be seen again with this fugitive from

justice vill result in your immediate arrest." "Fugitive from justice?" Vaughn drew a dfp puff from his cigarette. What has she done? "I cannot say more than to wrn you that Hon Gai'donyi is a most dangerous woman." A curious tingling became evident at the base of Vaughn's scalp. What The two rural policemen bore down the devil war, this? The af.'air wae assuming dramatic if disagreeable proportions. But a fugitive from justice? What did it aK mean?

Why the devil should he be tortured with the nature of the crime for which she was sought. 1 , Resolutely Vaughn switched Ins thoughts to polo, to Janos, to anything except Hon Gardonyi. But, as always, there returned a fascinating impression of her pointed face lilted to his.' of the dancing light which had played in her ever so slightly slanting blue-green eyes when she flung him that farewell kiss. .' She was, at least, no common ad venturess, he had long since decided, Clothes, voice and carriage pre: eluded such a possibility, and yet it seemed that lion Mistress Head long however, undoubtedly was a dangerous character.

definitely lost. Not that the prospect alarmed him; the night was warm and presently would be lit by a full moon. Moreover there was in his saddle bags food for himself and the tall gray hunter. "And this, Janos, is what comes of moping about 1 ike a lovesick sophomore," he commented while pausing at a brook to let the hunter drink his fill. Feeling1 somewhat depressed, he pulled a brandy flask from Kb saddie bags and ireated himself, to an informal cocl'4.ail. "vVell, here's to the girl in the little gray jodhpurs. Did you notice her eyes, Janos, and the way she carried herself? And what If -control she had! Wall, 05 a very bewildered American. whatever she's done let's hope fhe got away.

Roger Vaughn, somewhat cheered by the cognac, had ridden perhaps If a mile further up the va.'ley when the gray hunter's ears again swung forward and he broke into such a gentle dance as invariably preluded his return to a stable. "Cut out the foolishness, boy, to night you're going to get next to Nature in a big way. Stop it, I " Just then a low penetrating cry came floating down from the wooded slopes aheaif and had not the air in this little valley been so utterly still, he might never have heard, so faint and far away was it. "Thar's wildcats in these hyar hills," he muttered. It had become much darker in th woods because twilight was fading fast and the moon had not yet ris,i. Vaughn, accordingly, was kept very busy dodging low and tentacle-like branches. He had paused to survey a likely looking glen when he heard a second cry, this lime so inexprbsibly eloquent of anguish that an odd tingling began in his finger tips. "That's no wildcat, Janos sounds more like somebody getting a Grade A shellacking. Shall we ride up and see what's what? Ho gathered his reins then, his forehead deeply furrowed, he hesitated. "Better not. Probably just some drunken woodcutter beating up his wife." (To be continued) Copyright by F. Van W'yeli M&Rftn; Distributed by Kins Fealucos SynJiraio, Ins. By Jimmy Hatlo I
