When he went out he threw an old army topcoat over his shoulders with a Napoleonlike gesture. Medell axked me to take supper jwith him. We went around to his |rooms at the Dem Safian Chekeva | Kvatera Gumovaky (in English: “In |the apartment of Mra, Gumovaky In the house of Mr. Safian Chekeva’. His reom was bare but for a shabby cot, one chair and @ small | table. For supper we got the inevitable thin soup and kasha—eaten amid |stale crusts, cigaret ends and other jrubbish on the table. After supper (7) Medell became even more talkative than before, and | Medel! ip some hot air merchant! \“T'M PEACEFUL, BUT {1 COULD KILL” “You know, Duckworth.” he be gan, as he paced nervously up and down, “I am a peacefuj man.

There ‘s too much real work to be done here. “IT have asked to go with the other communists to the Polish front. We are needed there to keep the Red army in line.” This last confeesion waa interest ing. I returned to the Hotel Palermo for my own meal. I waa still hungry. I had hardly sat down when Medel! walked in. “Where did you get that?" he asked, looking enviously at my djn- ner, boiled “stchooka” (pike), “You're in luck getting that fish. They are certainly looking after you here.” OH, WHAT HE DID TO DUCKWORTH'S FISH! The next second Medell had his hands in my pot of fish, and wittbut using either a plate or fork, was ravenously devouring the fish, spit. ting the small bones out on the ta- ble.
