But
it
was
far
from
empty
.
A
man
picked
him
out
at
once
,
stepped
briskly
forward
and
said
heartily
,
"
Dr
.
Harshaw
?
I
’
m
Tom
Bradley
,
senior
executive
assistant
to
the
Secretary
General
.
You
are
to
go
directly
to
Mr
.
Douglas
’
private
office
.
He
will
see
you
for
a
few
moments
before
the
conference
starts
.
"
"
No
.
"
Bradley
blinked
.
"
I
don
’
t
think
you
understood
me
.
These
are
instructions
from
the
Secretary
General
.
Oh
,
he
said
that
it
was
all
right
for
Mr
.
Smith
to
come
with
you
–
the
Man
from
Mars
,
I
mean
-
"
"
No
.
This
party
stays
together
,
even
to
go
to
the
washroom
.
Right
now
we
’
re
going
to
that
conference
room
.
Have
somebody
lead
the
way
.
And
have
all
these
people
stand
back
;
they
’
re
crowding
us
.
In
the
meantime
,
I
have
an
errand
for
you
.
Miriam
,
that
letter
.
"
"
But
,
Dr
.
Harshaw
-
"
"
I
said
,
‘
No
!
’
Can
’
t
you
understand
plain
English
?
But
you
are
to
deliver
this
letter
to
Mr
.
Douglas
at
once
and
to
him
personally
,
and
fetch
back
his
receipt
to
me
.
"
Harshaw
paused
to
write
his
signature
across
the
flap
of
the
envelope
Miriam
had
handed
to
him
,
pressed
his
thumb
print
over
the
signature
,
and
handed
it
to
Bradley
.
"
Tell
him
that
it
is
most
urgent
that
he
read
this
at
once
–
before
the
meeting
.
"
"
But
the
Secretary
General
specifically
desires
-
"
"
The
Secretary
desires
to
see
that
letter
.
Young
man
,
I
am
endowed
with
second
sight
?
and
I
predict
that
you
won
’
t
be
working
here
later
today
if
you
waste
any
time
getting
it
to
him
.
"
Bradley
locked
eyes
with
Jubal
,
then
said
,
"
Jim
,
take
over
,
"
and
left
,
with
the
letter
.
Jubal
sighed
inwardly
.
He
had
sweated
over
that
letter
;
Anne
and
he
had
been
up
most
of
the
night
preparing
draft
after
draft
.
Jubal
had
every
intention
of
arriving
at
an
open
settlement
,
in
full
view
of
the
world
’
s
news
cameras
and
microphones
–
but
he
had
no
intention
of
letting
Douglas
be
taken
by
surprise
by
any
proposal
.
Another
man
stepped
forward
in
answer
to
Bradley
’
s
order
;
Jubal
sized
him
up
as
a
prime
specimen
of
the
clever
,
conscienceless
young
-
men
-
on
-
the
-
way
-
up
who
gravitate
to
those
in
power
and
do
their
dirty
work
;
he
disliked
him
on
sight
.
The
man
smiled
heartily
and
said
smoothly
,
"
The
name
’
s
Jim
Sanforth
,
Doctor
–
I
’
m
the
Chief
’
s
press
secretary
.
I
’
ll
be
buffering
for
you
from
now
on
–
arranging
your
press
interviews
and
so
forth
.
I
’
m
sorry
to
say
that
the
conference
room
is
not
quite
ready
;
there
have
been
last
minute
changes
and
we
’
ve
had
to
move
to
a
larger
room
.
Now
it
’
s
my
thought
that
