ARTE ARN MEAS 1) SRR re Teabergs Add To Perils Of Atlantic Give Jitters To Travelers Of Northern Route This ls the time when icebergs &lvo the jitters to whalers, fisher- men, and all who travel on the perilous North Atlantic. From April to July these floating fortresses of nature drift south. - ©. ward from Baffin Bay. Sometimes they are £0 huge that they dwarf a trans-Atlantic liner, yet throw a barricade of fice much farther down below the 'surface than the most powerful submarine can go.< Enemy U-boats off Newfoundland A and the Awerican coast "must iY } watch for these floating walld ot 1 ice as carefully .as the secret ok i sound detectors of alert destroyers. Sh The -bergs start in Greenland, TA 5 where the snowfall is moderate, A Rt but the sun is weak. They are IN monster "chips" of Greenland's " glaciers, which move 30 to 40 feet a day or sometimes faster. The Humboldt glacier is 60 miles wide. Usually Float in Currents These rivers of ice flow down to the_sea, where wind and cur rent, or the lift of water beneath and the over-balancing of thelr weight above, break off spear heads. Each one snapping from the inexhaustible ehaft of a parent glacier becomes a berg. . In the main, icebergs float in well-defined currents from their northern nursery, moving out in the spring to find a home in the deep sea and scattering themselves over some 10,000 miles of it, a strip a thousand miles long and hund- reds of miles wide, They need not be confined to this strip, and ofter wander out- side, when the current loses them or when they lose the currents-- that 1s, when they aro so enorm- _ ous or deeply submerged in tho sea that their foundations move: only by strong currents, perhapd, 4,000 feet down, thus defying surface currents, wind and weather. One-Eighth Above Water Only one-eighth or so of an lce- berg is visible above water. Pip. - < _macles of 1,000 feet have been trig- onometrically measured, which means that such borge have 7,000 feet of unseen ice below, Some bergs of two million tong and more have gone agrbund oft Melville Bay and Labrador, creating havoe on the ocean bed.

Thinking it to be an all-purpose cleaner, and working with Ted "Andrews as sales manager to mar- ket the product, she learns in- stead, through tests made by Joe "Benton, chemist, and information gleaned from Hans Stadt, chemist who had worked with her father, that Wondrosoap, when mixed with acid, is a more powerful ex- plosive than TNT. The secret formula for the catalytic agent used in - Wondrosoap had been concealed in an old washstand by Kay's father--the very washstand Mary Marshall, Kay's competent secretary, had sold when she cleaned up their living quarters at the factory. When it is finally found and the formula retrieved, not even MacLeod, Goldberg and Flynn, friends of Kay's who had been her father's lawyers, know -that there is, literally, dynamite, of importance to the government, in Kay's possession. - . * » CHAPTER 1X Thought awakening for brighter intellects. .

Ted Andrews ¢lipped-- the --ad---- vertisement from the paper, care- fully ticked it into his billfold. He had waited patiently for this, ever since he mailed a letter to Washington a week ago. . It was apparently an innocent message concerning some new thought process, but to Ted it said that FBI agents were invest. igating certain individuals and that an agent would contact him today. Meanwhile he was ordered to keep a close check on all part- ies connected with Wondrosoap. Flynn, MacLeod and Goldberg knew nothing of Wondrosoap as an explosive, could, therefore, be eliminated. Kay could have no "interest fn selling her product to a foreign power--unlees the price offered was astonishingly high, She could only stand to lose everything if the plot was uncovered. That left Mary Marshall, Hans Stadt and Joe Benton. Mary apparently knew nothing of chemistry, She had come to work for Kay long before there was any idea that -Wondrosoap was anything but a cleaner, Was Hans Stadt -as loyal -to : America as he professed to ik Ted recalled stories of other loya ..

Kay had tak- en him at face valye. But Ted had not. But Benton's story rang true. He was a professor of chemistry at the university. But even that might be a blind. At any rate, they would know today, when the federal agents arrived. Ted hurried into the office, LN . » Kay, Mary and Joe Benton were there. Joe was excitedly explain. ing his latest success. "We followed the formula we found in. your father's papers, Kay. It was astonishingly simple, I didn't even let Hans Stadt see how it was mixed. That scerct belongs to you and Uncle Sam. Then we made a sample run of Wondrosoap. That stuff reacts exactly as that your father man- ufactured. You can't tell the difference. We've made it!" "Thanks" to you, Joe." Kay's eyes were tear-bright. "Now the government can take over tho plant, start operations at once." "You're worth a lot of money now, Kay," Mary said. "This formula would be priceless to any government." Ted caught his breath at the girl's words. "But there's only one government that's going to get it!" he said grimly, Joe Benton broke the tension. "We've made all--the-- tests---on- Wondrosoap except one, Old Hans says a bullet won't explode it, - but we've never tried that, How about a test and a little target practice? I picked up this target pistol today, just to try it out." "Swell idea!" Kay agreed. "We want a full report for the Army officers." "Was this the payoff?' Ted wondered, * Kay and Joe led the way out of the office. Mary paused to pick up her suede jacket, Ted didnt miss that, either, Why should she need a jacket on a warm summer day? Maybe Mary and Joe . . . The formula was locked in the newly purchased safe, and only Kay knew the combination. He would stay close fo Kay, [] * * Joo stopped in the laboratory to got the pistol and a half-empty can of Wondrosoap. "We'll shoot at Ted's kindling pile," Benton directed. "Then if - p there is an explosion, there will be little damage, There's not much Wondrosoap in this the danger is hiininiized." Ted stood at Kay's elbow while Benton arranged the target, "Who wants the first shot? Kay, you tako a try at it. You better stand well away.

Al the softness was gone from the n girl's voice. Quict, unassuming Mary, covering Benton with a gun! Ted gasped. "Mary!" Kay screamed. Ted caught her arm. "Let her alone!" he ordered. "What's this all about?" Ben. ton demanded. "Put down that gun, Mary. Who do you think I am?" "I know who you are and what you're doing." Her voice was calm, steely, "But your plot won't work, This formula be- longs to the U.S. Army and the U.S. Army is going to get it!" A car raced toward the plant. Dust hid the occupants as it slia to a stop. Men jumped from the doors--men with drawn guns. Mike Flynn ran toward them, "Don't shoot!" he yelled. There were other men behind him. Mike was trembling when he reached Kay. "You're all right, Katie?" , She wanted to cry, but she forced back the tears, "Sure, Im all right! "We're all safe! What is this? Who are these men?" "They're FBI, Katie. Ted was worried about somcone stealing your formula, notified the gov- ernment agents." . "But Joe? Mary?" They were shapping handcuffs --en-Joe Benton then, bringing him back to the group near the office door. "Mary is a special policewoman, detailed to protect you," Flynn expained. "I hired her when you came to live in the plant, sent her to Ted to apply for a job as your secretary, She's been watch- ing this Benton, especially after you discovered Wondrosoap jis an explosive.. She reported to mo. Beiiton is the one guy who knows the formula, but he's not going to get it out of the country." For .a captured spy, Joe Ben. ton was anything but downecast, He was actually smiling. "Pd like to talk to-Miss Kay, Flynn and the others," he told his captors. They led him closer. "You're right, Mary, the jig is up. But not exactly as you think it is. I dont blame you for being . suspicious, Mr. Flynn, will reach inside my shirt--you'll find a money belt strapped around my waist, Unbuckle it," 'Flynn complied, drew out a long belt. "Now call your federal men," Benton directed. They.came clos- er. "Who is in charge?" A tall man stepped forward. "I'm Taylor." i "Taylor, take that belt, look in' the first pocket. You'll see a place where the stitching is 'broken. ...Inside-that-belt you'll find a paper. Will you read it?" Benton's smile never faded. Taylor opened the belt; drew out a paper, read it quickly and returned it. to its place. "Take off those cuffs," he ordered. © (Continued Next Week) Summer Inspires Winter Fashions Late summer--to all intents and purposes it's that now, for its fashions invariably carry over for autumn.

Tungsten deposits in the Emer- ald group of claims, elght miles south of Salmo, near Nelson, B.C, were termed by the British Col- umbia Department of Mines as "undoubtedly the most outstand- ing discovery in British Columbia in recent years and one which will be of inestimable value to' Can- ada's war effort." Samples of the molybdenite ore submitted_to the department last October aroused the curiosity of government mining engineers and tests revealed the presence of sheellte, or Tungsten, Mines Min- Ister Herbert Ahsconib announce last week. : vA later report to the depart. nfent," said Mr. Anscomb, showed five to 40 feet wide, 1,210 feet or more In length carrying from .3 to 10 per cent tungsten trioxide. No difficul- ty was encountered in making a bigh grade concentrate," "In one small block of this ground 34 to 50 by 110 feet there is probably $44,000 worth of tungsten," sald Mr. Anscomb, "And It surface values persist in depth thero will probably be up to a million dollars worth of tungsten in the deposit" : The first attempt at production of tungsten in" Nova Scotla was begun recently at Waverly, four- teen miles from Halifax.
