Since price control went into effect in Canada late in 1941, the Canadian index has risen only 3.5 percent, while the advances in thie same period have amounted to 13 per- cent in the United States, 12.8 percent in Australia and 16.1 per- cent in South Africa. : The controls may pinch here and there, but as these figures show, we are more successful in the fight _against ruinous inflation than most "countries.

He tells of beachcomber, whom Christine knows to be her late cousin's hutler. Christine finds a dagger hidden in the wall. She wishes she had not given the in- spector a false name, hopes to talk to him alone. g . CHAPTER VIII Christine waited uncomfortably whild the inspector gave some final instructions to his subordinates. But before she had an opportunity of speaking to him, the car in which she was to be driven to headquarters drove up, and a uni- formed man hurried her into it, Later, on the way upstairs to the office, she heard the sergeant's voice behind her -- low, but she imagined, intentionally audible: "Pretty neat, Inspector -- that girl's being the first to touch that knife --- if her own fingerprints were already all over #t." "And Yardley's being down around that boat with that beach- comber, if you ask me," the in- spector agreed. "Well, I'm expect- ing some dope about both of them any moment." Christine, who was a "who-done- it" fan, and thought she knew all about police psychology, said to herself, "They'rey staging this for my benefit, IT won't let them scare me." * . . Nevertheless, she must have fooked pale under the brilliant fights of the office, for no sooner were they all seated than the in- spector said to an officer at his elbow, "Get the young lady a drink. She looks sick." Christine took the fully. } Meantime water grate- another subordinate hurried in and put an envelope on the desk.

Inspector - Parsons glanced through the contents of the en- velope. "Okay," he nodded. "Get one of the Amalgamated officials and check up on the rest of the stock- holders. . . . And 'Wait a minute -- see if any of these keys open that car." He took a key holder from his pocket. "Now, Mr. Yardley, how long have you known Mrs. Talbert?" "After a fashion for 10 or 12 years." = But -- why, he didn't tell me this! Christine thought. "What do you mean by 'after a fashion'?" "I met her at a horse show where I was riding. Since then I've trained several thoroughbreds for her. But I've seen her very sel dom." "But often enough to money of her?" N . . borrow Jill flushed angrily under his tan. "That's a matter of record. You can casily firtd out--" "I have already found out," the inspector cut in coldly. "The no- tary who always witnesses her papers remembers the transaction. Several vears ago Mrs, Talbert lent you £20,000." Christine listened incredulously, "In return," Inspector Parsons went on, "for a silent partnership in your firm -- which, at the time, wasn't worth $10,000." "Mrs. Talbert knew that." 7 "But which is now worth many times as much, Your agrecment with Mrs. Talbert was unusual At the death of either of you, your joint property automatically re- verted to the other. On your re- paying the loan, it reverted to you. . . . Have you repaid that loan?" "Not entirely." The inspector swung on Wilmet. N Mr. "Mr, Wilmer," he said, "you own some Amalgamated stock, 1 De- lieve?" Mr. Wilmet moistened his lips. "Why, yes--yes, 1 have a few shares," he admitted. ol "It might be interesting to know how 'you voted on that merger be- tween "Amalgamated and National that went™ through at the stock- -holders' meeting yesterday." "Well Me. Wilmet said necv- ously, "as a matter of fact. 1 didn't go to the meeting at all" "You didn't have to.go, one else could have Voted stock by proxy." "But I -- why should they?"
