MUSICAL THERAPY The Nazis, in their early days of power, made potent use
of the great heritage of German'
ing- find perverting it to bolster their doctrine of racial su-1 proywey. They made state occasions of the performance of the Wagner operas, and distorted the operas' mythological'
characters to symbolize the Nazi "superman."
Today, many Germans consequently have a twisted con
ception of their own nation's' culture and a -complete ignorOK8 of that of some other nations. All of which lends sense to Jabien Sevitzky's proposal that the occupying powers appoint
an international board of psychologists, psychiatrists, and musicians to1 apply "musical therapy" in assisting Germany's
return to national sanity. ' Mr. Sevitzky, conductor of
Orchestra,, told a press conference in New York that he- favored a 20-year supervision of Germany's music as part of the re-education program, lie would not ape the Nazis by ban
ning certain composers. But he not heard m years and rescue not heard in years and rescue phony political connotations.
He would have the Germans "sing for construction, not
destruction," :and "listen to opera as entertainment, not national politics."' ; ' ': - , . ' .

SYNOPSIS On a wharf in Patuxtown, Maryland, ex-Colonel Ddnald Colby, late A.D.C. to General Conzalo Gutierrez, beats up Tod Ferguson, burly oysterman, for insulting Geneva Benet, daughter of Capt. Benet of the "Amerika." Ferguson was fired by Benet and infers someone was murdered on the Bhip. Later, , Geneva, confides in Colby that she had brought two men from Leonardtown to work for her father. ""They were afraid to stay but you wouldn't be," she says. A new look creeps into Colby's eyes. "Young lady," he demanded crisply, "shall we talk?" . CHAPTER III In the dingy deserted waiting room of the bus line, the two stood for some instant3 frankly appraising each other. "You," abruptly observed Donald Colby,- "are not from Patuxtown nor even from' Maryland." "What makes you think so 1" "Shoes." His face darkened, as if old ghosts were coming out of hiding. Used to know people who wore shoes . like that and . suits tailored like yours. Where are you from?" 'If I were to ask you the same question," countered the girl evenly, "would you answer?" "No." He saw before him a girl who was strikingly beautiful though not the pretty-pre tty type her wide mouth precluded that. There was a muscular adequacy to her figure which was sublimated to wholly feminine curves. -She wore a dark brown cloche, the brim of which was pulled down to a level of wide and sweeping brows. Who or what had drawn those tense, strained lines about her eyes and mouth? What was this gray-eyed girl in those once smart tweeds doing in such a dreary backwater of Chesapeake Bay? She had, he decided, the alert and earnest look of one who has set a difficult goal and who proposes, come what may, to reach it. By the orange-yellow glare of the "single thirty watt bulb, Geneva Benet saw before her a tall, broadshouldered young man who might have been thirty, but who probably was live years older.' Was there a certain hard gallantry in his eyes? She wondered what had become of those decorations : whose catch marks were still visible above his left breast pocket.' Why had he turned up in Patuxtown, now of all times? Coincidence? No. She' had ceased to call that an explanation. Those other strangers she had heard about would they recognize this lean individual with the searching eyes and silent looking mouth ? She must, she cautioned herself, be careful very, very careful. "We may as well sit down," she observed and -set. the -example y sinking rather gracefully on an uncomfortable plank beneh, "sinie there are several things I must tell you.""Who are you?" "Geneva Benet," said she. "And you?" "Call me Donald Colby." He smiled thinly. "I hope you're not expqcting.'too much of me?" "No, I'm not," she replied promptly, "I'm gambling on you 1 have bo have somebody "A port in a storm, eh?" "Maybe. But I'll play fair and not attempt to hide anything you," she emphasized the word, "ought to know." As she talked her tapering brown fingers began to pick nervously at the frayed handle of her handbag. "Until two weeK3 ago there couldn't have been a stupider more monotonous job, but no? there is definite danger aboard those old liners. They're laid up by the Shipping Board, you know, waiting purchasers which I'm sure will never appear." "I've already heard about that." "Oh really? I live with Father on the Monticcllo, and since Ferguson quit we haven't been able to get anybody to sign on. It's the inexplicable and complete disappearance of those three men that scares off the local heroes." She grew elaborately detached. "Taking this job calls for for well, a different kind of courage those old dying ships are big, silent and lonely and at night they're terribly dark and depressing." She flung the challenge Bquarely at him and he recognized it with a tight, twisted smile. "Urn, neatly put, Miss Benet. You make it very bard to refuse.

learned Squeers method not to stick my neck oufr-so I'm going to ask you a couple of questions. Why do you keep a job with such obvious risks ? Surely the pay you get can't be worth it." The girl's smooth, slightly sunburned face contracted and her eyes, losing their directness, became veiled and wandered aside. "I won't quit and Father can't." "Why?" Her voice sank to a dull monotone that nevertheless filled the dreary waiting room. "We haven't a cent beside what the Shipping Board pays him. Father is an old nian, and it's hard even for the youngsters these days." . imperceptibly ' the impression came home that this girl in the brown tweed suit was not telling the "Lord," murmured the recruit, truth, but he only said, "I see. What does the job call for?" "Cleaning gear, testing apparatus and keeping people off. The pay is forty a month and board. If you feel like signing on for the usual two month contract you can come along with me now. Will you?" For all her carelessness he detected a tension back of her words. It was obvious she wanted him to come; wanted him badly. Why? Why did she need a guard so urgently? One long brown hand crept up to stroke his chin and a reckless sparkle played at the back of his deep set eyes. "Why not? It will be a new experience to be hired by1 a woman. And well, I'd like to fake a look at your fleet of forgotten' ships. Sounds like a movie title," he added with a short laugh. "Well, what next?" . "We'll go down to Point Patience it isn't far, but first I've got to stop at the Post Office. Where are your things?" "Duffle's on the pier, Ma'am. Er, what do you call a female boss?" ; "Suit yourself," said she then, as the eddying fog closed about isolating them, the girl paused, looked up hesitantly,- then lowered her voice. "I don't want to seem melodramatic but do you happen to have a pistol?" ' "No," Colby said. "I er quit my last job so fast I didn't have time to bring it along." "Oh, I see. It didn't happen to be the police who hurried your resignation?" She looked at him searehingly. How grim, how hard bitten he looked in that frayed gray coat. He looked capable of anything to which hard time might drive a man. . . "Do you want an honest answer?" By the light of a misty street lamp his dark eyes bored into hers, "Yes." 1 He looked away. "It was the police. Do you still want to hire me?" The lithe figure at his side regranddaughter, Snirk Cnktiyo, A:mie Pittn: and . David Walton, Dickie and Jimmie y GutU ft :!:.

m'ained silent an instant;, then sighed. "Needs must." "Thanks," said he. '"I'll remember that." Perhaps half an hour later Colby followed the girl's slight, erect figure along a path of duckboards and down a low bluff which brought, them to the edge of the Patuxent. Somewhere high above, a full moon was fighting to pierce the mist and only succeeded in creating a curious milky atmosphere; the effect was ghostly, almost unreal, Colby realized. "Here we are," she announced, "At the end of this silly pier I'll hail for a boat." A puff of wind momentarily thinned the silvery fog and Colby' looked ahead, to be shaken by a queer sense of apprehension. Tber,

"talk about the Sargasso Sea!" towering incredibly high above this peaceful, wooded shore Ibomed a clump of gigantic steamer funnels, slender masts and cargo booms. Familiar enough when seen in Manhattan, New Orleans or Jersey City, but here amid the silence of the deserted backwater the vista .-was overwhelmingly desolate. Colby halted and lowered his sea bag, completely awed by this curious sight. The great moored liners seemed like grotesque and impossible cathedrals 'rising sheer from meadows and misty river. There was no light, not the least sign of life about them as they lay there some' seventy-live yards off shore. The scene was not only unique, he appreciated, but creative o a tremendous feeling of unrest, sugffL'stite of vaguely hinted evil things and of old ghosts creeping out of hiding. A long instant he was able to view an impressive silhouette of bridges, life boats and ventilators of crazy spider webs of rigging and funnel guys, then a fresh blanket of fog erased the scene as efficiently as a teacher's damp cloth clears a blackboard. "Lord," murmured the recruit, "talk about the Sargasso Sea!" The girl had reached the end of the pier and now cupped her glands. "Montieello, ahoy!" Her voice, surprisingly strong and clear, impinged on invisible steel plates and came' eerily back out of the fog "Montwello-o-o, ahoy-y-y!" ' Why, he asked" himself, should thi'ee watchmen have disappeared from these ships? Was some obscure sort of gang fight taking place? Was a maniac perhaps at large on these small floating cities? Or, more likely, was ther,e being attempted a, plot to loot valuable equipment from these moribund giants of the sea? (To Be Continued)' " -"' tlnprrlirlit. lflSB, by Van Wyi M&;on.

SULLIVAN LADY SflT
UP ACID LIQUIDS FOR HOURS AFTER EATING For hours after every meal, a Sullivan lady used to spit up a strong, acidulous liquid mixed with pieces of half-digested food. She says it was awful. At times ihf, would nearly strangle. She j had stomach bloat, daily headaches and constant irregular bowel i action. Today, this lady eats her meals and enjoys them. And she :;ays the change is due to taking ERB-HELP. No gas, bloat or spitting up after eating. She is also free of headaches now, and bowels are regular, thanks to this Remarkable New Compound. ERB-HELP contains 12 Great Kerbs: they cleanse bowels, clear g:-? from stomach, act on sluggish liver and kidneys. Miserable people soon feel different all over. So don't go on suffering!
