"IU‘VE FINISHED WITH STANDISH" Lablonde again became mollified. "so long as you place yourself enâ€" tirely at my disposal, and do all I want you to do, Mr. Rahusen, I shall forget the trick," he stated. "You spoke just now of Ronstadtâ€"are you still being employed by that country?" It did not need the sign from Carlimero to remind Rahusen that ne must give a discreet reply to this direct question. "I have come to London to place myâ€" self exclusively at your service, Proâ€" fessor." he saidâ€"and for once he made his voice sound humble and conciliaâ€" tory. The house telephone by the side of Lablonde rang. The Professor listened and then turned to Carlimero. "Herr Greisner has called," he anâ€" nounced.

"Please be calm!‘‘ replied Rahusen in a tone that convinced Lablonde he would be wise to obey the behest; "I haven‘t time now to tell you more, but directly this man Greisner has gone, I will give you proof of what I have just said. Meanwhile, behave to him exâ€" actly as you would have done in normal cirecumstancesâ€"otherwise, stupid fool as he is, he may become suspicious.

"I‘m sorry, Professor," he said in A surprisingly humble tone} "but I am afraid the matter has been taken raâ€" ther out of my hands; word has come through from Menke that Standish is to be got rid of at any price."

The terrain was mostly rocky, the speaker said, and was dotted with small lakes and hills. Vegetation was searce and consisted mainly of shrubs and moss and scrub timber. In the summer there was no night and during the winter there was little ‘ else but darkness.

Listen to Churchill, Eden, Duff Cooper, and others. They say there are several factors that must be borne in mind when assessing the future. The first is the determination, the vigor and the unity of the people in every part of the Empire. The second is the definite superiority of the Royal Navy over any combinaâ€". tion of fieets Hitler and Mussolini can muster. The third is that there are more men under arms in Britain than ever before, at least 3,000,000 ; t.he. production of arms and planes is inâ€" creasing rapidly; planes are arriving in a steadily increasing stream from ithe United States and Canada, and that all Britain is mobilized for the single task of turning back the invader who must first escape the navy and the Royal Air Force. es ues n t Lc L# 99 Suggests U Result in Averting food uprisings among milâ€" lions of illâ€"fed people in Naziâ€"dominâ€" ated countries looms ahead As A Herculean task for totalitarian reâ€" gimentation Ssays The Toronto Teleâ€". gram.
