On the heels of Indiana GOP Congressman Earl Wilson's 10 point program, in which a day or two ago he advocated a phony Republican 'New' Deal for 1946, comes the announcement from Republican State Chairman Jenner that Wilson does not speak for the Republican party and the appointment
of Indiana's Republican Charles A. Halleck as chairman of i
the GOP committee to work out a statement of national Republican policy. Congressman Halleck would reduce Earl Wilson's 10 points to the lowest common denominator it would consist

The "pill" therefore is not likely to prove a cure, in the opinion of State Democratic Chairman Fred F- Bays of Indiana who remarked: "It is really time for the GOP to take a definite stand on the vital issues now confronting the American people full employment, liberalization of unemployment compensation, minimum wage, federal housing programs and permanent F.

CHAPTER X . " The sheriff and his armed horde then swept into the camp; nearly bowling over the camp's proprietor as they did so. Without another word, Evergreen grabbed his bags, looked around hastily, then fled down.the road with his wife. The minions of the law, eager on the scent of criminality and a large reward, deployed carefully in a wide circle around Desdemona's cabin as they closed in on their quarry. Miss Love was just appearing, her warpaint for the day freshly applied, as they arrived. Mr. Smock, who was making oratorical hay while the sun shone, was in the midst of an anecdote. They began to walk toward the road and the bus. "Hold on there!" shouted the sheriff. "Or we'll shoot!" "Who us?" demanded Smock, astonished. "Yes you!" snapped the Law. "You're under arrest. Don't move." "What for?" gasped Desdemona. "For the robbery of the Bonkheer diamond. Hand it over, and come along quietly or it will be just too bad!" "We haven't got it," said Smock. "Look here who do you think ve are, anyhow?" "The . Evergreens that's who! And it ain't no use lying you've been identified. Where's that diamond?" The two exchanged amazed looks. We're not the Evergreens 1" gasped Desdemona. "Who are you, then?" he sneered. "This gentleman is Mr. Smockhe's a a lion-tamer." "Oh yeah?" said the sheriff. "And I guess you're a tight-rope walker, eh?" "Sir!" Desdemona drew herself up. "I'm- Desdemona Love." . "The ' great actress," put in Daniel, excitedly. "I've retired from the theatre," said Desdemona. "I'm a tropical fish fancier." "And I'm Napoleon," said the sheriff. "Come onj boys bring 'em along. You can't expect the bigtime crooks like them to tell the truth." "Where are you taking us?" demanded the lion-tamer, mopping his brow.' i 1 "Where you'll talk," said the sheriff. "Bring 'em along boys and don't forget their baggage." Desdemona talked then and there, and Daniel tried ; to, but' Jto little avail. Before ' they knew it, they were being borne away,. in the, triumphant clutches of the law. i ' When Ginger and Tony returned to the camp from their breakfast, not a little puzzled that the others had not joined them, it was to find Casanova, the cat, alone of their f ell6w"passengers, awaiting them. Casanova, and the tourist camp proprietor, by 'now recovered from his shock, and bursting with excitement. . , "Where's -everybody?" demanded Tony. , - . "In jail,' I guess. A hull posse of officers came up in two cars, and arrested the lot of them," said the other, chewing vigorously. "Leastways, I saw them take the fat lady and the bald-headed man with them. I guess that other couple went along, too.' :They ain't nowhere around." ; . "But- -what- for?" demanded
Ginger and Tony, together. They were stunned. "Seems like they stole a diamond wuth a million dollars and was runnin' away with it. The New York police is tracking them." He spat, shook his head. "Just think of that I The biggest ole diamond in the world right here in my camp, all night! If I'd a known it, I wouldn't a slept a wink!" Ginger and Tony looked at eaqh other. "The Bonkheer diamond!" she gasped. "It must be!" "Crooks and we were helping them get away!" Tony took a deep breath. "Whew! It's lucky we were having breakfast. They might have run us in, with the rest on a charge of being accessories." He smiled, then. "Of course, we could have explained Who We were." "But my job in Miami!" exclaimed Ginger. She was very nervous. "Suppose they come back for us, Tony? Even if they only hold us a day it may be too lata for me!" "My hunch is to get going, while the going's good!" was Tony's opinion. "What do you say?" "What about the Evergreens?" "They've evidently had the same hunch. Look their baggage is gone." "But what about money?" asked Ginger. "Now that we're alone what?" Tony grinned. "Don't worry about that. They all paid me their shares for the gas and oil, in advance although I didn't ask them to." r "Would it be right doing that?" she wanted to know. "I'd rather be wrong and stay out of jail." : "Say what about my rent for those cabins?" demanded the proprietor, suddenly. "Don't worry I'll pay the bill," said Tony, and forthwith paid him three dollars. He picked up the cat. "Come on, Casanova I guess you'd better go along." They boarded the bus, then, after stowing aboard their Dags. Gertrude and her bowl, they noticed, had disappeared. . i .i ' "I guess Miss Love took her along to jail with her," said Ginger, and took'Casanova in her lap. "I hope Mr. Smock won't miss his. cat too much." "We'll return him, when we know what . his permanent address will be," said Tony. "It'll be in the papers most likely." ' : V $ -. Ha started the' motor,1 arid the green bus rumbled offyi headed south. They were on their Wa j. ; Neither of them knew it but that was only the beginning of an'eventful day. : ; ' ;They drove all day through Virginia, the double decker Fifth Avenue bus an incongrous object in this history-laden landscape. A somewhat subdued young couple, not yet quite accustomed to the idea that for the remainder of the trip they were to be quite alone; and a little too self-conscious of that fact. They had long since talked-out the surprise which the morning's incident had given them, and had crossed the Carolina border when the second thunderbolt struck. For it was on the road to Fredericksburg that Fate, on a motor-cycle, overtook them. Tony mindful of their financial state, always drove with a watchful eye on the rear-vision mirror, and on the speedometer. It was with
some surprise, then, that he saw the law take their trail, overtake the bus and signal them to stop. Tony ap-' plied the brakes and exchanged an apprehensive look with Ginger. Were the authorities trying to rope them in with the diamond thieves? Ginger, thinking of Miami and a job, felt her heart in her throat as the cycle cop dismounted and walked over to them. He was a lanky, cadaverous-looking individual with a drawl and a mustache that drooped. Before he spoke he glanced up at the "Washington Square" sign, above the windshield. - ' "You folks from New York, ain't you?" he greeted. "Yes," said Tony, "we are. You can see that for yourself from our license-plates." "Left yesterday morning, didn't you?" Tony nodded. But the officer looked at the girl. "Are you Ginger Drake Miss Ginger Drake?" "Why, yes," admitted Ginger, taken by surprise. "Thought I had the right party although it's hard mistaking this bus," he nodded his satisfaction. "What do you want with Miss Drake?" asked Tony. "It ain't only this young woman I'm wanting you're in this, too," said the Law. And spat. "You admit that you're still a miss so I guess you ain't claiming you're this man's wife, are you?" "Certainly not!" exclaimed Ginger. "But I don't see what business that is of yours, or any " "Did you folks ever hear of a law called the Mann Act?" he inquired, sarcastically. "Mann Act!" Tony was loth amused and irritated. And not a little relieved; so it was not the diamond business, after all! "Is that moth-eaten old gag still alive?" "Alive enough to put you behind the bars for taking a woman not your wifo across a State border!" . Tony said: "But that's ridiculous! You've got to prove that a man takes a woman across a State border for immoral purposes. But we" "That's just what the charge is," said the Law. Immoral purposes." "What charge?" demanded Tony, "and whose?" "The party who tipped off the New York police to send out the alarm for you two. I've got orders to run you both in, and hold you for the federal officers." "Well, I'll be" Tony choked. He looked at Ginger. "Who do you think is trying to be funny at our expense?" ' Ginger's face was as unsmiling as his own. "RonnyEockaby. It can't be anyone else." "Your crooner friend? But why?" ' "To keep me from getting to Miami in time for that job." She was tense and upset. "Don't you see?" "Well, I'll be a dirty so-and-so!" swore Tony. "Just wait till I get my hands on that but are you sure?" "They know my name, but they don't know yours," she pointed out. "That's right, brother," said the Law. "What is your name? Your right one?" "Anthony Taylor New Haven," said Tony, mechanically. "But look here, officer you can't hold us. It's ridiculous!" (To be continued) 1 .
