STEALING A BOMB SIGHT
CHAPTER XXIII
'T'HE man who had come out
A near the Rocking R Ranch had
stayed in the car when the woman
left him. The car had showed no
lights for the last mile or so but
just rolled slowly over the flat
comparatively barren land. The
man sat in it quietly now waiting
his moment. He would have to
time himself well then act swiftly
and efficiently.
He could see a window light Or
two which he knew was the ranch
house. In hangars to the left of
the house he could see lights also
and knew that the army officers
and mechanics would be there—
they even slept within a few feet
of their planes.
When half an hour had passed
he quietly left his car. In a small
canvas pack he carried tools—a
powerful pair of steel cutters a
hack saw with extra blades of the
hardest metal a short stubby
crowbar four sizes of files.
Under his coat was a belt hold-
ing an automatic pistol. A second
and smaller pistol was slung in a
shoulder holster out of sight under
his left arm.
Outwardly the man’s clothing
was neat >nd of excellent quality
so that if by chance he should be
seen and recognized he would ex-
cite no suspicion. Simply by drop-
ping his bag of tools out of sight
he could well assume a normal
role with no one the wiser. With
no houses save those at the ranch
though and no road or trail along
this flat mesa area he didn’t ex-
pect to encounter anyone.
He walked cautiously to within
100 yards of the hangars. There
at the edge of the cleared landing
field he lurked in the foliage of
a mesquite shrub waiting.
The field was a long smooth
plain from which even the small
rocks had been removed but its
boundaries were marked by Span-
ish dagger growths mesquite
greasewood sagebrush and a few
scattered boulders. Recently too
a five-strand barbed wire fence
had been built around it to keep
off roaming cattle horses and men.
Over the ranch house roof came
a sudden lick of flame. It died
down sprang up again still higher.
Almost at once other flame tongues
showed. He glanced at the hang-
ars anxiously waiting.
• * *
TN just two or three minutes the
'L fire grew to astonishing propor-
tions over the house he had
planted his inflammable materis
well. He could hear the constan
sound of music and laughter ther
as he had heard since he firs
neared the place but still nobod
had discovered the fire.
All at once though he heard
shout.
“Oh-O-O-O-O HELP!” Some
body yelled then came a series c
shriekings and in the mountin
glow there he could see peopl
running.
Further shouts came louder an
more frantic.
A door in an airplane hanga
popped open and somebody looke
out. At once the person tumei
back inside called loudly and rai
to the other hangars nearby an
sounded the alarm. Men cam
streaming out and ran toward th
ranch house.
When he saw the last persoi
leave the hangars the man con
cealed near the fence grinned ii
elation.
“Perfect!” he breathed. “Th
whole place deserted!”
He sped across the opening an
stopped at the first hangar. There
to be doubly sure he paused an
waited a moment. He looked ii
the hangar and called out. No
body came nobody answered. H
went to the big ship.
He had expected the compart
ment used by the chief bomber t
be locked but to his delight h
didn’t have to use his tools here

and fortunes to own. There wa
America’s most valuable military
secret!
He was kneeling to inspect th<
instrument when he suddenly
heard a noise of running fee
nearby. %
“Two in each hangar!” a voic<
shouted.
The man crouched gun in eacl
hand ready to kill. He hardlj
dared breathe while a form dashec
into the hangar and took fire ex-

seconds later he knew he w’a;
alone again. He reholstered hi;

ed to the side frame. He tried his
powerful nippers on that and

whole operation. Shoutings and
