ployed in that mmu sayin', I you'd nuzht to be ashamed of yourself. Loo'k, you know you know I've done as much for this neck of the woods as anyone for a solid Republican crying in the wilderness. And you know how little Ice I CU 'Td almost forgotten," Asey said "about modest an honest politicians. It's wonderful." "I'm a member," Elliott said, one of the most feeble ana impotent committees Bear that in mind. And bear In mind that last winter I was.side I had three operations, interspersed with pneumonia.

frankly, I didn't about the government at that time. I paidi no attention to it. I didn't know that for various and sundry reasons that committee had suddenly become vastly important, and my vote infinitely so. People came to see me in the hospital and said, I hadi a swell new postofflce, where did I want it?" "And you said. Quanomet?" Asey demanded.

"Why, I didn't believe them! wny, uiuii uwuwvo, Elliott said- "I thought they were kidding. I said, kidding back with a itralght face, the one town on the Cape that needed a luxurious postoHice was, Quanomet. They said okay, and asked me how I spelled it. Then I got sick agajn, and then in a comparatively healthy interlude, the boys came back and said, did I want a mural? I said, sure. I still thought they were kidding." Hot Water "An 1 then you got-sick again?" "Exactly," Elliott said.

well, think what I thought when I saw the picture of the place!" "Well, there's the story of that. If ever a congressman got fooled, I'm it. But look here, Asey, here's what's bothering me. I've been flooded with the murder and it's plain that Quanomet is mad. Now, I can settle the thing In time, and I get the mural condemned being unsanitary, or knows it is! But I've got to let the shouting die down first.

I can't touch the thing now. 'And the house yesterday evenln', an' de 41WUOS stroyed all of his stuff they could lay their hands on, the sketches of the mural, I think that your best bet Is to call in the Quanomet selectmen and tell 'em that you'll get the mural removed, just as soon- as you can." 'A Good Defacing Asey said, "you might find that the paints ain't proper paints. Non-union. Or that the dampness Is eatln' into Myles Standish's hair. Get the D.A.R.

to pass fc "Oh, they have. They have!" "Well, fix things so that the mural- has to have a cloth hung over it." "I wish," Elliott said, "that I dared to subsidize a tiouple of good bums, and have them take the chance of getting caught, just to cover that mural with tar for me. A good defacing woujd solve everything Is one thing more. Carveth Strutt has been after me, yelping about Roddy. Says-he's being "Somehow." Asey said, "Roddy is mixed up in this Marina business.

He's bein' menaced because it's such a nice alibi, like- If you're bein' menaced, then one'H believe for an instant that you had anything to do With the murder." Elliott whistled. -'(Does I don't like this! His other uncle In Wash Asey, I don't like this I'm having enough trouble as it is with the hot-headed citizens Quanomet. I definitely don't wan the' Strutts to ride into battle, know they're bums, but thel money's handy. Not just for poll tics, either. I expect to work a park out of Carveth, and I'm banking on Dighton to get th Milk Fund out of the red.

Is Rod dy really involved?" "Is impatient? "More than that, Elliott said. 'Here. Take a look at some of my anonymous mall-" Asey road through half a dozen. "Pam and the rest all spoke the truth'," he said finally. "Quano- roet's mad clear through.

In a way, you can't blame 'em." "I don't," Elliott said. "I'm, in mural, too! They'll do something crazy and get everyone Into water. See here, in' 8 murder business. How much of it due to the mural?" "I don't honestly know," Asey wid. "I don't know.

If the person killed Marina killed her be- wuse she inspired her husband to nick in those caricatures, then It a native who knew enough her an' him to know that wed be responsible, People do Md things when they're mad, particularly when'a lot of 'em are all wad about the same thing. But i wonder now," he paused, and 'nought about Earl Jennings, "if nnn coul(1 get mad enough by to I don't "I think so." "There is no justice," Elliot said. "None at all. If Roddy's In volved, can't you wait till I ge the park and the fund money?" Asey grinned at Elliott's an Star Patterns KATHARINE Q.
