Air Force was the strongest in the world. This statement came just as various groups were criticizing the Defense Department for what was termed unwise reductions in the Air Force expansion program. Mr. Wilson declared the main reason funds cuts were made was that the Air Force had-more money than it could spend at this time, and that it was decided,this was the best place to save money. He also declared the recent cancelling of orders for some 965 aircraft was “good bus- P.

She’s paying me to do a job and she’s paying me well. I can tell Ag erusntal y that do- it job comes inry ing then we've driven the Starrs out of Silver Valley may- be I'll have time for something else. Maybe then I'll be your rival. But until then you got noth- *ing to fear from me.” Ben nodded somberly. “When you've done that job, if you do it, ou make tracks and forget about Pein’ my rival. No man’s comin’ between Diana and me.” “We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.” Ben looked off into the distance, then pivoted his head towards the Double D. Then he looked back at Jeff. “Much obliged for the hunch. But if I catch him——!” absence was that they bh i gone in search of the stolen cattle. When he reached Walt Kirk's fence he rounded it by riding in- to oa: water. Bae his horse s to drink juddy gazed aon wistfully towards the Double D ranch house, the thought of Diana quickening the beat of his heart. the time Dan Den- ton had brought her into the val- ley Buddy had worshipped her with all a boy’s clean-minder ado- ration. He was careful that his com- ings and goings were not noticed, “No'm; no’ seein’ you for the last month.” Diana was finished with being amused by him. She said, “I'm afraid you'll have to keep on missing seeing me. No Start is welcome at ranch.” not because of fear for himself | © but because he did not want to subject her to the slightest hint of scandal. That was why he re- fused to say he was with her at the time Dan Denton was killed. Now Diana was a widow and, except for the war which threat- ened, he was morally free to call on her whenever he liked. In- spiration seized him; if he could win her love there would be no war between the Double D and the Star. He was eightcen, nearly a man; she was—well, surely in her early twenties. Not too much difference, And he loved her; he was sure of that. He spurred his horse across the creek and headed for the house. Diana came out on the gallery as he dismounted, a question in her eyes, Buddy had amused her and she had subtly encouraged him until the boy imagined him- self in love with her, but he was the sor of the man ‘ible for the theft of her cattle. Also, she remembered belatedly, the death of Shorty. ‘E PULLED OFF his hat and came up on the gallery. “Good mornin’. Mrs. Denton. It’s been quite a spell since I saw you and a deep breath then blurted, “1 Diana.” love you, Di She laughed. It wasn't a nice laugh; there was scorn in it and a taunting quality that hurt. “In ite with me? » you're only a boy.” ly please run along; company. “Com ?

Well, I'll be seeing you.” He waved a hand in farewell and rode on towards Silverstone. When he looked back a bit later, Ben was riding slowly towards the 88. Bepey STARR rode along the creek, checking on the posi- tions of the Star Punchers and keeping an eye on the opposite bank for signs of Double D men. Except for the three who lounged near the line shack at the north end he saw not one, and this sur- rised him. According to Shag lan there were fourteen men left on the Double D and the only way Buddy could explain their ed ridges of muscle his jaws. He said, “I've warned that jigger to keep clear of me. playin’ up to you Td hunt hin in’ era Stal ie cont wouldn’t advise you to try it. Jeff has handled tougher than you can ever to be.

You sure will.” (Te be contineed) iness practice.” Wilson declared the Air Force had learned more about what is needed and that its buying program was, therefore, being changed. He declared the strength of the Air Force would continue to increase, both in quantity and quality and revealed that the Air Force now had 106 I thought I'd ride over.” _ She gave him a cool smile, “Of course. Won't you sit down?” He waited for her to seat her- self, then perched on the edge of a chair and fiddled with his hat. His cheeks were flushed. He sat in silence for a moment then “It’s nice weather, ain’t it?” Diana said, “The weather’s all right I suppose. And there’s no moon.
