bread across the inner court from
the Army bakery under the "Gen-

of a lot of things too intangible to
jut his finger on.
Then he'd thought the heck with it
and gone back to his work. He got
up, went to the . water, cooler and
time back again half a dozen times,
unable to settle down to anything.
He got up again^ got the file on
Miguel Valera and the file on Diego
Gongaro and went through them
both. He took the Brooklyn saloon-
keeper's letter out of his desk and
read it foFthe fiftieth time.
"You let somebody-like that man

-Anne saying. If she could say that

Finally IT- was too much. He
reached for the phone. *
"Get me Senor Alvaro Valera," he,
Mid. He hesitated, and added; "Or-

He waited impatiently. .
"I'm sorry. Captain Wilcox," the
operator said at last. "Both Don
Alvaro and Senor Miguel Valera
have gone to Ponce for the day.
Senor Diego Gongaro has taken some
Americans out to the plantation. He

Pete put the phone down. It was
•11 perfectly open and above board,
on the face of It. Only one thing
bothered him. It was cockeyed too,
tot it stuck in his mind. Why
hadn't Miguel taken her out to the
Central himself?
He got up abruptly and went into
• Colonel Fletcher's office.
He looked at his speedometer now.
Four kilometers and he'd be there.
He hadn't any clearer idea now what
was compelling him to risk his car
nd his neck to get out there than
"•..had before he started. All^ he

He let his brake out and backed

*'de of the track. It whs the short-

ain crew thought he wasUrazy it
would probably merely confirm an

American maininnders. He quick-
•ned his pace. He could see a shiny
. ack limousine in the fiflHyard, a

ward a little. It wasn't Anne. The
Widen thing that passed for a head

***• It was the girl who'd been at

Tlie sound* of the machinery In.
side the mill drowned out the noise
of the Jolting cane cars. Pete no-
ticed that the pleasant overtone of
molasses a little distance from the
mill was not so pleasant close to it.
He passed the crane lifting bundles
of cane Into the hopper. Two peons
standing there taking a sample stalk
from each car, ticketing it to be test-
ed for sugar content, glanced at him
curiously and went on with their
work. Pete ran inside. The shed
was hot and dirty, and full of violen^
unseen motion and deafening noise.
Men tending the grinding machines
turned their heads to- look at him,
looked silently at each other and
went back to their work; He went
on, faster, across the cement floor
toward the center of the long build-
ing. Anne was nowhere in sight.
A man was coming in from the
laboratory with a test tube of dark
liquid in his hand. He glanced
around at Pete, startled, at seeing a
uniformed Army officer on the floor-,-
and waited with a questioning wor-
ried expression on his fate. '
garo y Ios Americanos. Donde?'
he demanded.
For a moment the man looked
blank. Then his face broke into a
smile. He nodded, looked up and
raised his free hand.
"Up there." he said in English.

Anne got into Pete's car and sat
perfectly still, her eyes closed for
a moment, before she reached down
and shook the dust out of first one
shoe and then the other. They had
walked down from the mill yard,
leaving the others back there talk-
ing., to- the 1 orem a n.
"You mearr^ou told them a story

This year, as every year
for the past twenty-two, the
nation pauses briefly to salute
the navy, the marine corps-
arid the-eoast guard on Navy
day, October 27° for that is the
birthdate of Theodore Rdose-
veJt who sired the beginnings
of our modern navy. And it
was the late- President who
backed up his word by donat-
ing part of his Nobel Peace
award to the Navy League
and its program.
The Navy League is.now a nation-
wide ofganization with a vice presi-
dent for every state in the. Union
end the District of Columbia. Its
new honorary president is Governor
Charles Edison, former secretary of
the navy. -Its president is Commo-
dore Sheldon Clark, Chisago busi-
ness man. Under a directive issued
by Frank Knox, secretary of the
navy, all commands of the navy de-

She was clincing to the hand rail—
him. It looked a hundred just then,
and the walk she was on the breadth
of a tightrope. A single iron, hand
rail was all that protcc't«:d..h.C^trom^
the long drop to the cement floor on
••bis side, and God only knew wh^
on" the other.
\ Diego Gongaro was in front of
her. Mr. Richard Taussig a yard
behind her. She was clinging to
the hand rail, leaning forward a lit-
tle, looking down into some roaring,
grinding hell on the! other side. Mi;.
Taussig glanced behind him along
the catwalk, and moved'aVlfttlK clos-
er to her. There was something in
his dual movement that split into
Pete's Consciousness like/ an elec-
tric shock. He made a leap for-
ward. The stairway was steep as a
ladder and sticky with the silt and
syrup flung up from the vats, and
he cleared it faster than he had ever
done anything in his life. Then he
could feel the narrow iron walk vi-
brate under his feet.
Mr. Taussig turned sharply. Some-
thing happened to his face. For a
second there was something un-
speakably terrible in it. It was gone
instantly. The white smiling mask
that took its place was inscrutably
enigmatic. He stepped back a lit-
tV Anne hadn't turned. She was
staring down into the grinders,
watching the cane eoHa««Mp.aani go,
down, caught between the great roli-
ers. There was a look on her faee
that Pete had never seen there be-
fore, and that, he wouldn't have
knoww If he hadn't known every
mood and movement qf it fat better
than he knew his own. She was
scared, petrified with fear. Her hand
clinging to the gftard rail Was white,
the knuckles small shiny beads of
ivory. -~
Pete Wilcox wriggled past Mr.
Taussig on the two-foot walk and
gripped her arm. He felt her body
give and sway a little and saw
her eyes close. •
"You poor little devil," he thought,
with a sharp acrid tightening at the
back of his tongue. „
Diego'Gongaro, absorbed in some-
thing the foreman was trying to
shout at -him, turned around. He
gave an abrupt start •
^ "Hope vpu don't mitrd-if- I corfte
along," Pete shouted.
"Delighted?" Diego.Gongaro shout-
ed back. There was something more
than delight In hl face. Pete saw
him take out his handkerchief and
mop the perspiration off his f*ce.

She took a deep breath and got
her lipstick but of her bag.
"I really don't know what I'd have
done if you hadn't came. I think I'd
have fallen. I'kept knowing I was
going to. It was horrible, really."
Pete reached down and-squeezed
her hand tightly lor.,-a moment, not
saying anything.
"In fact, Pete,- I cfon't know what
I'd ever do without you anyway,"
she raid. She smiled wanly. "Ev-
ery time I get myself in a 'mess—
Her voice trailed off. . ^~;.r
"WRy'"don't you marry me. An-
nie," he'said, when she-didn't go on.
"Or have I said that too many
times? Just for a bodyguard. I'd
live out in 'the dog house, and you
could just send me a bone once in a
while." ,
Anne shook ..her head.
"I can't, Pete. I don't know why,
exactly. Sometimes I wish I could,
but . . . Oh, I £onTt know what's
the matter with m^s I'm such a
mess. When I'm with you I don't
want to be with anybody else. When
"rm"18 a. jam it's always you ...
••"••She"stepped again.
"Why don't you tell me all about
it, old girl? What's up?"'—u-
" He wanted to ask her about Taus-
sig, but not just then.
"We were good friends before 1
fell in love with you," he went on.
"i'd like to .stay that way. Why
don't you just get it all off your
chest.—Is it Valera?- You.know I'd
rather you'd be perfectly honest
about it. Even if it hurts a little."
"He's not in love with me, if that's
what you mean," Anne said slowly.
He glanced at her sideways. She,
apparently believed it. - j
"I don't know what happened to
me. It's just so different."
"Maybe that's it, Annie," Pete
said. -
"I don't mean that Or maybe
I do gnd don't know it. Anyway,
I'll get over it. I guess, when I get
back home."
"You'll let me know, won't you?
Just so you don't do anything crazy,
like marrying the guy. That's all
I'm really afraid of."
"-••Why?" .
"The old ego In the first place."
He grinned sardonically. "It
wouldn't work in the second." J
"Why not?"
He slowed down and looked at
her. "No stuff, Anne,'' he said.
"You wouldn't marry—**
"I think I would . if he asked
mel- Which he hasn't and isn't like-
ly to. I don't see why not." , J
"I do," Pete said curtly.' "A hell

works all right the other way

they get an American husband. But

"Then you're stupider than you

too many movies, sweetie."
"Well, maybe it does. Maybe"

"Stop being ,a starry-eyed fob!,"
Pete said shortly. "I know love con-

Anne. You're not going to ruin your

warmly. "Miguel hasn't even re-

is actually a civilian en-
deavor, a-civilian salute to our far-
flung fleet and shore establishments
jyjd the men and women who make
them function.
This is exactly what Theodore
RoosevelJ had in mind when he de-.
clared in <iiat letter 40 years ago:
"Foe .the bw$ing and maintaining
in proper shape of the; American
navy. We must rely'upon nothing but
the broad far-sighted patriotism of
our peffple"afja' wholes and it is of
great importance that there should
be sortie rr/cans bv which this patri-
trt i smrc anjftnJTine ffecti ve -utterairee.
•Your society'offers just the means
needed." ' " . ...:. .
The Navy League is thus, seen,
also, as not of the character of JuSjT
mother emergency organization; or<
"war baby" designed to function
only under the duress of eonflipt. It
is a permanent gathering of citizens
who pay homage not. alone to the
dead heroes but to the living and
glowing organization of ships, and
planes, and men of the United States
navy. Its purpose is one of patriotic
education, and its membership fees
are nominal for it is - a non-profit
organization'.
This year the official slogan of the
league on the occasion of Navy day
is "Your Navy—Spearhead of Vic-
tory." This is in contrast to the old
traditional slogan of "First Line of
rDefense." And it is also in contrast
with the 1942 slogan which read:
"Your Navy—First Line of Attack."
Commodore Sheldon Clark, presi-
dent of navy league
These sharply contrasting slogans
tell a changing story- of a navy un-
der changing conditions and the final
slogan suggests the promise of vic-
tory.
. Th'e question is raised, does the
league andjts patriotic membership
cease to "be ? robust booster for the
navy at'the cessation of hostilities?
Officials of the Ifeague say, noT"W6t
thai;is; when' the real work of the
league must begin anew.
.• Perhaps, the peace slogan on a
Navy day yet to come will be at
once a grim reminder and a solemn
warning that the men and. imple-
ments of the navy must not again
be relegated to the shelves *Of com-
placency over our najtional security.
Tn that event the slogan may well
read: "Your Navy . \ . Comes First
in War and in Peace."
'Spearhead' Is Big and Sharp.
But this year, fn the midst of the
greatest war ever to sweep this
Ifo'tibled earth, the slogan "Spear-
head of Victory^- is eminently fit-
ting. And what ♦-"spearhead"! The
of all-^tlme-being
Already it is immense, be-
yond the dreams of any nation, even
the United States, until three years
ago. Still it grows, day by day, week
by week. More ships, more planes, -of the navy program, and the step-
more men, the navy demanded, and
the American people have respond-
ed without stinjf.
In a report boldly revealing de-
tails previously considered tight se*
crets, the United States navy flaunts
its strength to the Axis, and particu-
larly to Japan. In three jrears, the
report states, the total tonnage of all
navy craft has risen from 1,875,000
-tons* in July.. l04O. to more than
5,000,000 tons in July, 1943. The navy
measurements - are in displace-
ment, not deadweight tonnage, which
latter- figure- is more, than twice as
great as the displacement.
Warships, meaning battleships,
light and heavy cruisers, destroyers,
destroyer escorts, submarines and
carriers, have been increased from
383 in 1940 to 613 in the July. 1 43,
report, and new ships are being de-
livered every month. Some 313 new
combatant ships have been added in
three years, totaling LH7,054 dis-
first 18 months of the defense pro
gram. Combatant ships — battle-
ships, aircraft carriers, cruisers, de-
stroyers, destroyer escorts and sub-
marines—make up the largest part
up in their production has been
especially sharp. The tonnage of
combatant ships completed in the
first six months of l94Ais~mare than
20 times the tonnage completed dur-
ing the first six months of the de^
fense program."
To make this astonishing output
more graphic the report states that
in July of 1940, the navy received
five newly finished vessels^ while in
June, 1943, the number was almost
1,200 of various cldSses. r.
An even more remarkable multi-
pliCation has taken place in air-
planes. From 25 aircraft delivered
in June, 1940, the figure leaped to
2,000 by June of 1943. The report;
states that airplane production fo^
naval use has grown faster than, anj
other branch of the aircraft indus-
try.
In the 36-m6nth period, the report
says, the navy has obtained 15,567
planes built under its own contracts,

placement tons and .costing .more
tham three billion dollars. Of the
original 383 ships, over 100 have
been transferred to other nations,, or
Converted to non-combatant uses.
Other naval vessels have been in-
creased from 1,076 to 14,072, the
great rise being accounted fdr prin-
cipally by 12,964 landing craft. Other
new ships were 1,274 mine layers
and patrol craft, 654 yard and dis-
trict vessels, and 151 auxiliary ves-
sels, such as oil tankers, repair
ships, etc.
Indicating the emphasis on air
power, the navy has multiplied its
planes-from 1,744 in 1940 to 18,269
last July, and more, are being put
into action daily. The importaocfi_Qf
air strength, both.-for offensive and
-defensive operations is so momen-
tous that the traditional definition of
sea power has been changed to "sea-
air" powers
"The ability to build this huge
naval force, and px. continue,.to build
at the present rate is one of the
foundation stones of our military
■str'ategy.'r-strys-thg-na vy's report.
"It underlies our amphibious at-
tacks in the Pacific, the Atlantic, and
;the Mediterranean," goes on the
statement. "It protects our long ex-
terior supply routes running across
thousands of miles of oceans.
"Most important, it makes feasi-
ble a strategy of attack, with all the
risks it implies. Ability to build—
or if necessary, to rebuild—on this
scale is one of the basic advantages
which the American navy holds over"
fleets of other nations."
So great is this construction capac-
ity, in fact," that the navy has been
able to sustain severe losses without
serious loss of strength. Fifty-eight
warships have been sunk or dam-
aged so as to be considered useless7
Of these, one was a battleship, nine
were cruisers, four aircraft carriers,
32 destroyers and 12 submarines. By
transfer to the navies of our allies,
or by conversion to noh-combat pur-
poses, the U. S. navy has lost 129
ships, many of them classed as
"over-age." • - "
"The ultimate measure of a ship-
building program's success is the
array of new vessels, completed and
ready to fight, which it turns out,"
the navy report comments. By this
yardstick, U. S. warship construc-
tion passes the test with flying colors.
Ships are being built faster and fast-
er. and being delivered complete,
Htmeji and supplied, for combat on
the" high'seas.
"The rise in naval ship comple-
tions is without parallel?' goes on
the report. "The number of vessels
completed in the sirtgle month of
June, 1943, for example, approxi-
mates the ntirfiber completed in the
and in addition- about 8,300 planes
constructed under army cognizance.
Of these army planes, 7,800 were
trainers and utility planes, and 450
combat aircraft. The program if
concentrated on combat planes, con-
tinues the report. Recent emphasis
is on bombers.
Of its new fighter planes, based on
carriersj the navy proudly declares:
^'ThejHare'capable of matching per-
formance with the world's best land-
based fighters." They fire in one
minute five times the weight of pro-
jectiles that their 1940 "predecessor*
fired."
Ordnance Department.
All combat ships and planes de-
pend up.on.their guns for both offense
ahd defense. ,.It..,is. the business of
the ordnance department to arm
these many new fighters, and to pro-
vide replacements. The navy is
highly satisfied with the work of its
ordnance department, according to
the report. Contracts for guns of
every .caliber and type, and mount-
ings and ammunition have been suc-
cessfully filled by dozens of private
- manufacturing companies,' in addi-
tion to the navy's own manufactur-
ing plants, meeting exacting stand-
ards. ' ' _ _
The rate of production in ordnance
has increased 24 times over the 1940
rate. More than 66,000 of the four
main types of naval guns and
mounts have been turned out since
July, 1940. ' -
Shore Installations.
During the three years mentioned,
the navy has constructed docks,
buildings and shore facilities costing
6% billion dollars. This program is
being continued too, to keep pace
with over-all expansion. Contracts for
almost two billion dollars worth of
work is in process of completion.
The whole construction program, to-
taling $8,100,000,000, is approximate-
ly 81 per cent completed on July 1.
Of this vast sum, $3,200,000,000 has
been allotted to shipbuilding and re-
pair, ordnance and aircraft facili-
ties. One-third of the $4,800,000,000
appropriated for nonindustrial bases/
has gone into naval bases; the re-
mainder has been devoted to ad-
vance bases, storage, fleet facilities,
;.gtc. Only the, advance base pro-
gram was less than 15 per cent fin-
ished on the first of July. "
This great navy Will be manned by
a force^of more than three million
men.-. The navy's goal for the end
of the^year is 3,009,581, including
some WAVES. So the two-ocean
navy, long considered an imprac-
tical dream, is becoming a reality.
Long the world's best navy, the Unit-
ed States navy is now to be the
world's biggest also.

Back In 1903 Theodore Roosevelt, then President of
