XXIX :
Onge when she was a little girl
and had visited a farm, Gloria
Brown had heard a stuck pig
scxeaming. The pig had sounded
just like Mz, Bononi as he pleaded
for his life.
Nr. Boponi's voice rose to a
hig.b,er piteh:
‘lt was Sadie that killed Sal,
Lofty!”
Gloria looked down at Mr, Be
noni's wife, lying on the flogy with
the blood running from the little
hole in her temple and staining
her gray marcelled hair.
Killing’s too good for him, Gleria
thought. Mr. Benoni was trying to
throw the blame onto his wife,
onto the woman _w‘c?o, made
him apple pies with little slivers
of lemon in them, who had tried
to save the miserable little rat Mr,
Benoni, with her own body be
cause—bless her—she loved him.
“I never understood fim\“ me
dieval torture before,” Gloria
thought. “But 1 guess it might
have some uses.”
Yet, when the little gray man'’s
popgun spoke a second time, Glo
§ia drew a deep, sobbing breath,
rying, “Oh, ng'™ - g
The little gray man turned to
Gloria. :
-@Gloria realized that now he was
going to kill her. But she saw with
amazement that he looked genu
inely sorry. ’
“I got no choice in the matter,”
he explained. “Be reasonable now,
Have I, Toots?”
Gloria didn't answer. She was
looking directly at the gun which
was pointed at her. It was the
first time she had ever looked
death squarely in the face.
The little round hole in the bar
rel of the gun stared at her and
seemed to grow bigger and bigger
until she eouldn't look way. A
queer metallic taste of fear was
in her mouth. Her threat was so
dry that it seemed to stick to
gether and make her breath rasp.
But it was funny how something
as small as that little hole in the
end of that gun could hold s 0
much -— Gloria, Miltiades, all of
their lives together. .
Mentally she said a prayer and
addressed it to Miltaides: “Oh, my
darling, I’ve been such a fool, but
1 love you—" ¢
The shot that Gleoria waited for
didn’t come. Why didn’t the little
gray madman shoot? Maybe he
was enjoying watching her shiver
and sake, just like Mr. and Mrs.
Benoni trembled while they faced
death. Maybe the little gray man
was thinking that everyone was
alike at the point of a gun — a
Benoni, a Jack the Cork, or a
Brown. All cowards!
At the thought, such an anger
shook Gloria that she forgot her
fears. “No, by Bacchus,” she cried
fiercely. ¢I am not a coward!”
Although it felt like lifting a
ton weight, she raised her eyes
from that ever-widening hole in
the end of the gun and faced the
little murderer who had Kkilled
again and again and who must kill
yet again. But she did it and her
eyes met with his.
“It's you who are the coward,”
she accused fiercely. “You poor,
little frog of a man! Who are you,
\what are you without that gun?
Nothing!”
. Her eyes watched the man move
'slight.ly as he raised the weapon
| a trifle to aim at her, but she was
not feeling afraid any more. The
tide of her anger, and of her con
‘tempt, rose inside of her sweeping
'away her fears and pushing her
on in its vast, surging waters.
“What have you ever done be
;sides kill people?” she asked him.
“Have you ever baked an apple
ipie? Or written a poem? Or borne
'a baby? Have you ever done any
‘thing to justify your verminous
‘existence?”
Without waiting for him to re
ply, and his answer probably
‘wouldn’t have come from his lips
but from the gun anyhow, she
went on: g
“No. You've never been alive at
all. Youre~dead right now and
you don’t know it! As dead as the
people you've kilted!”
Lofty Gordon’s eyes seemed to
grow a bit wider and a little more
perplexed, as if he were looking
at something he didn’t think could
exist. As he started at her, startled
by this slip of a girl who refused
to grovel and whimper and squeal
in the face of certain death, Gloria
swept on, proudly, gloriously:
“Why, the Greeks looked upon
Death as nothing. They made jokes
about Death, wrote verses about
it: v
“‘Why, perhaps Death is Life and
Life is. Death
And victuals and drink an illusion
of the senses; .
For what is Death but eternal
sleep?
And does not Life consist of eating
and sleep. .. ”

‘When Lofty Gordon's little gun
went off, it did not hurt her at
all, at first. But it sounded too
loud, twice as loud as it had sound
ed when it had killed Mr. and Mrs.
Benoni. Like two guns. Maybe it
was because it was a special shot
for her.
Angd the sound was followed by
a hot stab in Gloria’s flesh and a
sudden push, like a heavy blow
that took her breath away.

INDIA HAS DISCRIMINATION
CASE
MADRAS, India— (AP) —Bar
ring anyone from college on
grounds of community, cats or
religion violates India’s constitu
tion, a full bench of the local high
court recently ruled.
~ JdThe case arose out of a Madras
government order fixing the ra
tio for admission of major reli
gious communities into govern
ment colleges. The government
said this was necessary to pre
vent highly intellectual minority
communities from standing in the
way of the progress of the back
ward majority.
The Brahmin community which
forms only three per cent of Ma
dres state’s 55,500,000 people was
able, because of superior intelli
gence, to capture most of the ad
missions into the colleges. The
government, therefore, fixed two
seats for the Brahmins out of
every 14 vacancies. The Madres
government is appealing to the
Supreme Court of India against
the decision.
The Nunatagmiut Eskimos had
a rather advanced culture consid
ering the difficulties of life in
northern Alaska.

U.S. ENGINEERING CENTER
IS DEDICATED IN COLORADO
DENVER — One of the world's
great engingering and research
centers was dedicated here recent
.
Plans and construction problems
for hundreds of great projects are
first worked out at the Engineer
i,Bng Center of the United States
ureau of Reclamation here.
Through its portals stream hun- |
dreds of visiting engineers yearly
from most of the countries of the
world, seeking general training or
specific advice on taming rivers
for irrigation and power. |
Under certain circumstances
the engineering center's speciai
ists “hel? out” with problems in
volving foreign countries, or with
ot%irwbranch‘es of our government,
es of its own men are con
stantly abroad, either takmfi: ex
pert aid in programs of the Point
Fouwr type, or learning from for
eign experience.
Some of them, like Leslie N.
McClellan, who as the bureau's
chief ingineer is now in charge
of this engineering and research
;:entex'.l ami\ John Lucian Savage,
ormerly chief designing engineer
of "%he hureau,es‘gave acl?icved
world-wide reputations.
A senior engineer retiring from
the bureau has no need to go into
idleness and few of them do—
they are much in demand as con
sultants to private industry, cities,
states, and foreign governments.
The geople of the center are not
eelabrating a birthday, but their
final establishment in a heme of
‘their own, with equipment ade
quate to do their impaortant work.
~ For many years the center was
in the New Custom Housé heié
’sharing inadequate office s?ace
with many other federal ac ivi
ties and with its laboratories
crowded into _basement rooms
Some mightly important prob
lem were worked out there, but
heads of the organization?:mped
at the postwar chance to acquire
adequate quarters.
These were in the Denver Fed
eral Center, which was built dur
ing the war as an ordnance plant,
and after the war was converted,
as its name implies to a new
home for scores of regional gov
ernment activities.
Testing Machine
There literally are acres under
roofs, and adequate space, for ex
ample, to build side by side many
huge models of enormous dams
and power plants yet to take thir
place in the bureau’s billion-dol
lar program.
Here is one of the largest test
ing machines in the world, an
enormous and massive steel struc
ture that projects u&) through the
roof into a cupola especially
built for it, looking like the up~
per works of a battleship.
Here are rooms forever
drenched in fog, where concrete
is test-cured in 100 per cent rela
tive humidity —the air contains
all water vapor it will hold—and
ghostly forms move in and out of
the gray curling mist wheeling
huge concrete cores.
Here is an “AC network ana
lyzer” which can be used to test
the efficiency of proposed huge
electrical systems that may swing
for hundreds of miles from the
powerhouses over mountain and
plain,
It also can be used to study
nonelectrical problems, such as
the ebb and flow of tides, the
pressure and rush of water being
simulated by electrical impulse.
Here are studied such special
problems as action of soft water
bubbles in gnawing away con
crete and steel like so much acid.
