Dr. Singer, this is Mr. Whiteside and General Busher. 07:48.500 --> 07:50.500 I know the general. How are you, sir? 07:50.500 --> 07:51.500 Just fine, Doctor. 07:51.500 --> 07:52.500 Mr. Whiteside, how do you do? 07:52.500 --> 07:53.500 How do you do, Doctor? 07:53.500 --> 07:54.500 Sit down, George. 07:54.500 --> 07:55.500 Thank you. 07:55.500 --> 07:57.500 Mr. Whiteside is from the FBI. 07:57.500 --> 07:58.500 Oh? 07:58.500 --> 08:00.500 Did you know a Dr. Elman? 08:00.500 --> 08:01.500 Rudolf Elman? 08:01.500 --> 08:02.500 Yes. 08:02.500 --> 08:04.500 Very well. I studied under him in Germany. 08:05.500 --> 08:08.500 Here's a picture. Is this the man you knew? 08:08.500 --> 08:10.500 Well, I don't know. 08:10.500 --> 08:14.500 Yes. Much thinner. But this is Dr. Elman. 08:14.500 --> 08:17.500 We taught at the same university. He's dead. 08:17.500 --> 08:18.500 When did he die? 08:18.500 --> 08:19.500 During the war. 08:19.500 --> 08:21.500 This man died four days ago. 08:21.500 --> 08:25.500 And this is not Dr. Elman. He was killed by the Nazis trying to escape from Germany. 08:25.500 --> 08:28.500 This man was shot in front of the American Embassy in Switzerland. 08:28.500 --> 08:33.500 We've known for some time that Dr. Elman was a prisoner in Siberia working on thermonuclear weapons. 08:33.500 --> 08:35.500 How are your experiments coming, Doctor? 08:35.500 --> 08:37.500 I'm afraid that's confidential. 08:37.500 --> 08:41.500 Even to you. Elman knew just about how far you'd progress. 08:41.500 --> 08:42.500 That's impossible. 08:42.500 --> 08:45.500 This is a portion of his testimony recorded just before he died. 08:45.500 --> 08:49.500 It was sent to us by Farnsworth at the American Embassy in Switzerland. 08:49.500 --> 08:51.500 Sure this man was Elman? 08:51.500 --> 08:53.500 Elman was a brilliant physicist, was he not, Doctor? 08:53.500 --> 08:54.500 Extremely brilliant. 08:54.500 --> 08:59.500 If information concerning your work here was smuggled out, he would be capable of understanding it. 08:59.500 --> 09:03.500 Elman would not only be capable, but extremely useful. 09:03.500 --> 09:07.500 General, are you suggesting that someone on my staff... 09:07.500 --> 09:12.500 I suggest you read Elman's statement concerning your work here on thermonuclear weapons. 09:15.500 --> 09:17.500 Good grief. 09:17.500 --> 09:19.500 Professor Young. 09:19.500 --> 09:20.500 I've read it, George. 09:20.500 --> 09:24.500 But this shows knowledge of our progress as late as a month ago. 09:24.500 --> 09:25.500 Is it accurate? 09:25.500 --> 09:28.500 Extremely. Lacking in a few details. 09:28.500 --> 09:33.500 Elman was dying. 09:28.500 --> 09:33.500 Extremely accurate. What does this mean, sir? 09:33.500 --> 09:36.500 It means that someone working on H-23 is acting as a spy. 09:36.500 --> 09:38.500 But who? 09:38.500 --> 09:43.500 Myself, Professor Young, and four others are the only ones who could possibly have access to this kind of information. 09:43.500 --> 09:48.500 Elman knew that you were close to what he calls in his statement the most powerful weapon of our times. 09:48.500 --> 09:50.500 His exact quote is... 09:50.500 --> 09:58.500 The one weapon that might mean the difference between peace or total destruction. 09:58.500 --> 10:02.500 He escaped to let us know that someone is passing on this information. 10:02.500 --> 10:04.500 Do you know who it is? 10:04.500 --> 10:07.500 No. Professor Young said the same thing you did. 10:07.500 --> 10:09.500 It has to be one of six men. 10:09.500 --> 10:17.500 Professor Young, yourself, Doctor, Dr. Mitchell, Dr. Evans, and your assistants, Mr. Bromwell or Mr. Collings. 10:17.500 --> 10:21.500 I can't believe it. These men are all trusted. 10:21.500 --> 10:24.500 So was Klaus Fuchs. Completely trusted. 10:24.500 --> 10:26.500 Seems impossible. 10:26.500 --> 10:27.500 We have to find him. 10:27.500 --> 10:33.500 If you don't know who he is, don't you think it's a little dangerous to confide in me? 10:33.500 --> 10:35.500 After all, I might be the one. 10:35.500 --> 10:38.500 You might be. But that's all been discussed. 10:38.500 --> 10:43.500 If we're going to find this man, someone, one of the five men working on your experiment has to help. 10:43.500 --> 10:46.500 We can't send in an outsider. Our man would get suspicious. 10:46.500 --> 10:50.500 Professor Young has to be notified. He's in charge of this plan. 10:50.500 --> 10:55.500 But we still need one of the men actually working on the project. Professor Young's only been supervising. 10:55.500 --> 10:56.500 We picked you. 10:56.500 --> 10:57.500 Why? 10:57.500 --> 10:58.500 Past record. 10:58.500 --> 11:00.500 My colleagues have records, equally as trustworthy. 11:00.500 --> 11:01.500 We know all the records, Doctor. 11:01.500 --> 11:03.500 And I know these men I work with, Mr. Whiteside. 11:03.500 --> 11:07.500 Then perhaps you'll be able to find out which one is a traitor. 11:07.500 --> 11:11.500 I don't know. I repeat, what if I'm the traitor? 11:11.500 --> 11:19.500 Then I don't think you'd be foolish enough to continue sending information. And if the information doesn't continue to leave the country, we've accomplished two things. 11:19.500 --> 11:23.500 We've kept the project a secret, and we've found out that our man is on to us. 11:23.500 --> 11:26.500 Yes. Yes, I suppose that's right. 11:26.500 --> 11:33.500 If they steal H-23 from us, well, is there anything else? 11:33.500 --> 11:34.500 I think we've covered everything. 11:34.500 --> 11:39.500 Come on, George, I'll buy us a drink. Nothing else for me at the moment, is it, General? 11:39.500 --> 11:41.500 No. Nice to see you again, Dr. Singer. 11:41.500 --> 11:44.500 Thank you, General. 11:44.500 --> 11:48.500 Oh, I imagine I'll see you again, Mr. Whiteside. 11:48.500 --> 11:50.500 I imagine so, Doctor. 11:50.500 --> 11:53.500 Yes, of course. 11:53.500 --> 11:56.500 What do you think, Whiteside? 11:56.500 --> 11:57.500 About Singer? 11:57.500 --> 11:58.500 Yeah. 11:58.500 --> 12:03.500 I'm interested in him, General. It might help if we get to know a bit more about him. 12:03.500 --> 12:04.500 He's the man? 12:04.500 --> 12:09.500 I don't know. That's what we've got to find out. 12:09.500 --> 12:31.500 Auto Light is bringing you the case for Dr. Singer, tonight's production in radio's outstanding theater of thrills, Suspense. 12:40.500 --> 12:44.500 Say, Harlow, what are you going to do on your vacation? 12:44.500 --> 12:52.500 Why, Hap, as an advocate of the Auto Light Stayful battery, the battery that needs water only three times a year in normal car use, 12:52.500 --> 13:02.500 I'm going to advise all car owners to adopt that adept, adaptable, and amazing actuator of abundant and dependable starts. 13:02.500 --> 13:04.500 Always in there pitching, eh, Harlow? 13:04.500 --> 13:10.500 You said it, Hap, and it's all because the Auto Light Stayful offers greater convenience and longer life. 13:10.500 --> 13:11.500 Greater convenience? 13:11.500 --> 13:18.500 Sure, Hap, because the Auto Light Stayful has over three times the liquid reserve of batteries without Stayful features. 13:18.500 --> 13:21.500 That's why it needs water only three times a year in normal car use. 13:21.500 --> 13:23.500 Longer life, too, Harlow. 13:23.500 --> 13:31.500 Right you are, Hap, because life-insuring fiberglass retaining mats protect every positive plate to prevent shedding and flaking, 13:31.500 --> 13:38.500 and give the Auto Light Stayful longer life as proven by tests conducted according to accepted life-cycle standards. 13:38.500 --> 13:41.500 Well, I'll see you next August, Harlow. 13:41.500 --> 13:46.500 So long, Hap, and friends.

Young, regarding thermonuclear H-23. 16:05.500 --> 16:10.500 Dr. Singer has informed me that H-23 experiments are proceeding on schedule. 16:10.500 --> 16:14.500 With luck, completion should be possible within the month. 16:14.500 --> 16:19.500 Singer has nothing else to report in regard to our previous discussion. 16:21.500 --> 16:27.500 Evans. Just a minute. Here. Here's a chart on the fission yield. 16:27.500 --> 16:33.500 Certainly checks. 21 trillion calories. Oh, we're close. Now eliminate the carbon. 16:33.500 --> 16:40.500 How's Bromwell doing? He's tired. You look tired, Singer. A little. 16:40.500 --> 16:44.500 Something wrong? No, no, no, no. I want to see how Bromwell's doing. 16:44.500 --> 16:48.500 Don't forget poker tonight. No, I won't. 16:48.500 --> 16:54.500 Bromwell? Eh? Oh, hello, Singer. 16:54.500 --> 16:59.500 I'm still too low. How low? 3,600,000. 16:59.500 --> 17:05.500 I've got to go back. I had HO4 as high as 19 million. What was the reaction time? 17:05.500 --> 17:11.500 Well, it was pretty close. To 100,000. Very close. I think we should talk it over. 17:11.500 --> 17:14.500 Evans just finished his fission yield. 21 trillion. 17:14.500 --> 17:18.500 I guess I am holding things up. You've got the hardest job. 17:18.500 --> 17:24.500 Mitch and Collins are down at the reactor pile. Let's get them and talk. 17:24.500 --> 17:28.500 Yes? Vinnie?

No, it's all right. 17:57.500 --> 18:00.500 What you boys have to do is put up some money to find out. 18:00.500 --> 18:05.500 All right. I'll just call. Brother, I admire you.

Our boys say the Russians haven't had any message 18:45.500 --> 18:48.500 in the progress of the bomb for a couple of weeks now. 18:48.500 --> 18:50.500 They're worried. They're worried. 18:50.500 --> 18:53.500 If we only had one lead... We will have. 18:53.500 --> 18:55.500 The minute they finish their experiment. 18:55.500 --> 18:58.500 Someone's going to have to make his contact then. 18:58.500 --> 19:02.500 Well, if it's Singer or any of those men, we'll get him. 19:02.500 --> 19:12.500 I'm even having their mothers-in-law watched. 19:15.500 --> 19:20.500 92,238 plus neutron. 92,239 plus gamma radiation. 19:20.500 --> 19:25.500 92,239 decays to 93 neptunium. 239 plus beta electron. 19:25.500 --> 19:28.500 23 minutes.

Oh, yes? 25:34.500 --> 25:50.500 Whiteside, Federal Bureau of Investigation. You're under arrest. 25:50.500 --> 25:51.500 I can't believe it. 25:51.500 --> 25:56.500 Neither can I, Professor Young. Carlings. For $3,000. 25:56.500 --> 25:58.500 He had to work quickly, I guess, after that medical. 25:58.500 --> 26:02.500 I hired him, trained him. He was a student of mine ten years ago. 26:02.500 --> 26:04.500 How did it work, Mr. Whiteside? 26:04.500 --> 26:05.500 It was a chance, Professor Young. 26:05.500 --> 26:07.500 Carlings had paid three or four visits to that dentist, 26:07.500 --> 26:12.500 complaining of several cavities, just as Dr. Singer complained of sinusitis 26:12.500 --> 26:14.500 and Dr. Evans of recurrent insomnia. 26:14.500 --> 26:17.500 However, when we had all of you men examined by medical men 26:17.500 --> 26:20.500 attached to this experiment, we discovered Mr. Carlings' teeth 26:20.500 --> 26:24.500 to be in perfect condition. Work done on a healthy mouth. 26:24.500 --> 26:25.500 If it hadn't been for Elman... 26:25.500 --> 26:30.500 Elman gave his life to tell us how much Russia knew of our thermonuclear research. 26:30.500 --> 26:32.500 You thought it was me, didn't you? 26:32.500 --> 26:34.500 Yes, Dr. Singer, for a while. 26:34.500 --> 26:36.500 I can't blame you. I really can't. 26:36.500 --> 26:37.500 I was wrong. I'm sorry. 26:37.500 --> 26:39.500 Oh, that's all right. 26:39.500 --> 26:42.500 Do you know, in a way, I'm glad it was Carlings. 26:42.500 --> 26:43.500 Oh? 26:43.500 --> 26:45.500 I don't know. It's cleaner somehow. 26:45.500 --> 26:49.500 It keeps the trust and the faith alive in all of us. 26:49.500 --> 26:52.500 And that's the biggest thing we have, you know. 26:52.500 --> 26:56.500 Trust in each other and faith. 26:56.500 --> 26:59.500 Well, may I go now? 26:59.500 --> 27:01.500 Yes, Doctor. 27:01.500 --> 27:30.500 I have work to do. 27:31.500 --> 27:38.500 Suspense. 27:38.500 --> 27:43.500 Presented by Auto Light. 27:43.500 --> 27:45.500 Harlow Wilcock speaking. 27:45.500 --> 27:50.500 Next week will mark national holidays for two great countries. 27:50.500 --> 27:57.500 On July 1st, Canada commemorates the 84th anniversary of its founding as a nation. 27:57.500 --> 28:05.500 And on July 4th, the United States celebrates the 175th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. 28:05.500 --> 28:11.500 May we all recognize the importance of these two great days in our lives 28:11.500 --> 28:31.500 and make continuation of our freedoms a must for ourselves, our children, and the generations to follow. 28:31.500 --> 28:38.500 Suspense is produced and directed by Elliot Lewis with music composed by Lucien Morrowek and conducted tonight by Wilbur Hatch. 28:38.500 --> 28:43.500 The case for Dr. Singer was written for suspense by Blake Edwards. 28:43.500 --> 28:53.500 In tonight's story, Joseph Kearns was heard as Dr. Singer, Larry Thor as Whiteside, Herb Butterfield as General Busher, and Clayton Post as Charlie. 28:53.500 --> 29:04.500 Featured in the cast were Ken Christie, Ted Von Elst, Howard McNair, Paul Freese, Larry Dobkin, Edgar Barrier, John Stevenson, and Trude Marson. 29:04.500 --> 29:15.500 Tonight's suspense program is the last for this season. 29:15.500 --> 29:22.500 Suspense on television will continue throughout the summer, and we'll be back on the CBS radio network the last week in August. 29:22.500 --> 29:27.500 Until then, this is Harlow Wilcox for Auto Light, wishing you a pleasant summer. 29:27.500 --> 29:41.500 This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.
