THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1934 We'll Travel in America Railroad men, scanning the horizon for new business, believe 1934 will be @ banner year for rail passenger! fic, ‘The main reason assigned is lower rail rates, an apparent lightening of the business clouds, dissipation of fear, the general desire of people to go places after sticking by the home fireside and the popularity of con- ventions which will be held at vari- ous resort centers. ‘The forecast seems reasonable 1.29 |enough in view of the recent trends, both toward heavier rail traffic and toward a larger volume of traveling by all the media available. America has been staying pretty close to home these last few years, as witness all kinds of data on the subject, but it is regaining its natural disposition to go places and see things. Aiding this, too, will be one item which the railroads do not mention. This is the depreciation in the value fof American currency abroad. The same pressure which drove many American expatriates home when the eagle began to slump in foreign ex- change, will keep them on this side of the water as long as the situation As a result, many persons who nor- mally travel abroad will do their traveling at home this year, where a One Kind of ‘Honor’ The U. 8. government is trying to collect $9,375,000 from some 20 New York banks in connection with the collapse of the Harriman National The Harriman bank began stagger- main open because these 20 banks, Still a Long Road Ahead ‘as members of the Clearing House association, promised that they would not let it fail and agreed to assume its deposit liabilities if it was unable to weather the storm. ‘this increase took place in spite of Ciminished production—or, perhaps.) ras: march the bank closed its % the farm doctors at Washington! doors.

Lord, no!—I couldn't be jealous of anything that he owns. I'll take the ‘Dlossom over and give it to her, and then, after we nail him, I'll tell her ‘what I meant by it.” “‘Nail him’? You're still going @head with this hunt?” “Why not? We started it, we'll go through with it. And from now on there'll be no more pussyfooting or pecting in the Nahannis will be a good way for a fellow to forget.” He got up, put on his jacket, and plucked the taller of the two black lilles, Over the other one he hesi- tated 8 moment.

Even yet LeNoir could not tell whether his chief would burst out at him in a fury or would fill his pocket with money, as the girl had said he, would, He watched anxiously. But then, little by little, he saw, how his chief was taking it. Karak- ban’s anger and astonishment passed swiftly and changed to dis- belief, as though he simply could not credit his good fortune; and then came a leaping exultation which his habitual cold mask could not quite hide, “Where is she, LeNoir?” The pages quivered in his unsteady hands. “Why the devil didn’t you . bring her along with you, man?” LeNoir drew a breath of immense relief and his jumpy nerves smoothed themselves out. The girl had spoken the truth! “She down der at dat camp wit’ » de u'ders,” he explained. Thinking q this a good chance to impress Karakhan with his caution, he added: “How I know wedder ehe talkit straight or not? I don’t know she aw-right, ontil you say.

I'll get some coffee for us,” As LeNoir eased onto the wall bench his glance strayed out the window to the landwash where half a dozen lean honey-colored huskies were nosing along the water edge for dead fish, A pistol shot east of the hangar fourteen birch- bark canoes lay side by side on the sand like basking scals; and in the timber just behind them smoke was rising from three big campfires. The party was the Black Grizzly and his > —f men, on their way south. They had come a hundred miles without stopping even for food, and « another hundred lay ahead of them. The sight of them comforted LeNoir a lot, after his two dismal ‘Yallures to wipe out Ralston’s party. He certainly could use thirty more men on the job. One swoop and smash, and the business would be done. The Russian came out of the boarded-off kitchen with a pot of coffee. He poured two tins and laced them with brandy. LeNoir drained his cup at a gulp. Slowly sipping his, Karakhan listened while LeNoir told him of the happenings down river. About the two suspicious strang- ers who were drawing closer andi closer to his hiding, the Russian asked no questions just then. He was unable to focus his thoughts on that pair—the sentences of Sonya over her. Sho was near hii @ hundred miles! In five oie more she would be there with him! LeNoir suggested carefully, “She tell me dat you be veree ‘blige’ for me breeng you dis letter and you pay me someting, mebbe.” He thought ‘ it good policy to mention the money bs matter while his chief was still in the first flush of elation and more likely to be generous. “W'en 1 go weelow Pssapll T take on walk into trap: and den . his long treep fas‘er'n hell,” Karakhan ‘took ont a bilifold, se- lected a yellow note and passed it over.
