fngland the power of the press is the power of the printed word and j ascertainable not in terms of horse power but of brain power if a newspaper is to be aligned on the side of cniightment it must e free of all arbitrary and tyrannously enforced restraints and political censorships he said once the hars hand of censorship of any kind is laid on the press then it might c said that the evil forces of sell opiniated propaganda are let loose and the voice of the people is si lenced i say this he said because i dont think we always sufficiently appreciated what it is to have a free press a press

silence in the lavishly furnished steamer suite egypt carse squinted thougbfully and let a kings ransom in milky pearls run through his sundarkened fingers they dripped one by one to the square of heavy black velvet on the table top rolled briefly stopped egypt sorted through them with a finger picked out the largest fitted a jewelers glass into his eye and scanned it intently the pearl was as big as a small pigeons egg per fectly round glowing with that healthy luster found only in a globule built up from layer after layer of living nacre a beauty egypt said taking the glass out of his eye but it has a moonshaped blemish that will knock the value down considerably it might be peeled or if there was another to match it the value of each would treble eh cochet the thin precise appraiser for apex surety nodded a remarkable pearl he agreed but the blemish must be taken in to consideration must be discount ed i would not recommend peeling it might ruin the entire pearl you are right of course if there were two of them the value of each would be greatly enhanced there were six men in that steam er suite standing aronud the table on which lay square after square ot black velvet each holding its indi vidual heap of gems pearls dia- mods rubies rare jade all unset all gleaming and flashing back tne rays of the light overhead with then- own particular refractions of color and the man who answered cochet and egypt carse was the most col orful of them all the mandarrn lee wong six feet to an inch in his scarlet anklelengh coat embroidered with gold braid stood lee wong the buttoned cap of a mandarin of tne old empire was on his head and the wisdom of many years was etched into his fine old face lee wong spoke pure english with an oxford accent his educa tion having been completed in eng- lad pride and sadness were in h3 voice there is only one pearl like that gentlemen that blemish you speak of has been a mark of distinction for thirteen generations of manchu history since it was won in battle by the mandarin ko and presented to the emperor as the moo of asia only the dire need of a prostrate china brings it to this country for sale he turned to milligan what is your decision about this matter sir i wish to insure the jew els to the limit milligan looked at cochet inquir ingly and cochet resumed his add ing of long columns of figures tr had been a tedious task to appraise the lot and make a quick decision as to their value egypt carse carewe milligan and cochet were four of the six men in that room lee wong was the fifth and the sixth was at all slen der man with an impassive saffron face and wellfitting gray suit charles wu was his name he was lee wongs confidential secretary and had stood silently in the back ground more than once while cochet had appraised the jewels swiftly and ac curately egypts eyes had wander ed casually to the young man and each time charles wu had caught the glance and fixedly returned his gaze there had been no sign of ex piession in his face egypt was bothered with the re curring feeling that he had seen this young man before but desprre his best efforts he could get no more than a vague impression of familiarity are you aware that the british intelligence service has uncovered a plot in shanghai to steal these jew els egypt asked lee wong the mandarin nodded somberly a warning was radioed to me by the secretary to the president was there anything more than a warning any information that might be of help no said leo wong merely a warning i do not place too much credence in it shanghai is a hot bed of rumors you saw no one on the ship who might have been following you lee wong shook his head im possible we left in the utmost sel crecy i kept to my suite most o- the trip lee wong turned to hu secretary did you observe anyone on the ship who seemed unduly in terested in us charles wu hesitated for the barest fracion of a moment then shook his head denied in perfect english no one sir cochet looked up from his figures i make the total three million six hundred thousand he stated that sum is based on an average market and luck whether thty will bring that much at hurried sale i cannot say a forced sale even to leading jewelry houses will cut the price down noticeably we will insure for two million seven hundred and fifty thousand- milligan said promptly i have the papers with me your insurance will go into effect as soon as the prem ium is paid we will check the papers and draw a check lc wong said with a wave of his hand and while he is doing that will you join me in a bit of refreshment i have some rare poppy wine the rest was a matter of formal ity the signing of the papers by lee wong and milligan the payment of the premium as milligan turned away with the papers he srid to egypt under his breath now its up to you and carewe egypt promptly and bluntly ask ed lee wong about his plans they were simple the customs men were waiting to appraise the jewels af ter that they were to be taken ashore to lee wongs suite at the hotel splendide where that evening a reception and dinner for the lead ing chinese of the pacific coast was scheduled youd better let me send the jewels to a safe deposit box in an armored car egypt advised blunt ly- lee wong nodded his head in par tial assent the armored car is excellent but the jewels must be in my suite this evening i wish to show them to my guests risky business showing them around that way egypt reminded my guests will be chinese gen tlemen lee wong replied with dignity as if that removed all doubts about the matter i want them to see what i have brought so they may realize to what extent china is rallying in this crisis we are counting heavily on our expa triated countrymen for assistance to be continued the
