the Blue Eagle astazted its tught

nor industries regulations whid
will be easily entorced, yet reach
the NRA’s chief objectives. These
are:
Shortened hour* to make more

organize and bargain; prohibition
of dishonesty and the obvious forms
at unfair trade practice
The small, secondary industries
will be given opportunity to sub-

more elaborate trade practice- reg-

SEATTLE, Wash. June 8.—(
The wreck of a United Airline pas-
senger plane, only three at whose
nine occupants were report* in-
jured in a crash in the fog bound
Cascades, was sought today by a
crew of loggers.
Their only guide to the location
of the plane in the forest wilder-

fully into the circular view of the
room projected on the Girandole
mirror over the buffet.
"Two murders in one night—right

"It was real enough for the poor

Office! Hamill, didn’t you. John?”
"Yes, I knew him. Talked to him
lots of times last summer. A nice,
pleasant fellow."
"He was a fine man and a good
policeman. Everybody liked him,
John, from his Captain down. He
leaves a wife and children and it’s
going to be hard on them. The other
fellow may have been a crook, or
a blackmailer, or a gunman, and the
world’s better of without him. as
Mr. Dufresne says, but the family of
a man like Hamill has to pay the
price for it."
Whitmore nodded in sympathy.
“I’ve heard what they have to say
about the murder upstalrs," Harper
went on, “and that’s very little to

"That was a pretty stiff row they
had last November, wasn't it, just
about the time Ellen Becker left?"
Whitmore looked relieved. "Bo you

PUMPING WHITMORE
The Sergeant’s meditations were
Interrupted by the return of John
Whitmore with the spolls of hlatour
through the house. The booty was
entirely devoid of interest except for
the alx or seven Blips from Mra. Du-
fresne’s pad. Harper deftly rescued
these, intended to poke through the
rest of the papers, then sent Whit-
more to dispose of the trash, tell-
log him to return afterwards.
While he was gone Harper can

the almost monosyllabic brevity of

or wary.
Whitmore returned to the break-
fast-toom with the sleek sir of a
successful conspirator. The detective
realized that in this placid-minded
handy man of the household he had
his best chance to get some genuine
"ineide" intormatiof.
The detective rose and locked the
door with a theatrical flourish. “I
don’t want any interruptions .for a
while" he explatned, as he returned
to his chair. "Bit down. John, and
