^?HE STORY BEHIND

THE COVER

Just as the U-boat menace was be-
lieved eradicated; as the convoys were
crossing the perilous Atlantic without
accident or loss ; as our planes and
sub-chasers were blasting the last of
the German U-boats from the sea — it
happened !

Suddenly, without warning, and with-
out apparent cause, our ships and their
precious cargoes were vanishing with-
out a trace!

It was at first believed that enemy
agents had placed time bombs aboard
these ships, but that theory was soon
dispelled, for a triple watch was put
into effect on the loading docks. A
toothpick couldn’t have been smuggled
aboard unnoticed.

What then was the reason ? Some
new secret weapon of Hitler’s? Some
silent submersible so constructed that
it wouldn’t register on our hearing
devices? Some torpedo-carrying plane
so swift that its flight couldn’t be de-
tected by the eye?

We didn’t know what it was, but this
we know — we’d find out! Our ships
had to go through! The war in Europe
depended upon them!

At the Sentinel, Britt Reid watched
the news-ticker with growing anger —
one ship after another exploding and
disappearing into the deep, ships laden
with food and supplies for our troops
overseas going down — he had to do
something about it! He couldn’t just sit
there and watch the list grow greater
and greater on the ticker tape! But
what was there to do? What could he
accomplish, when all the facilities of
our Navy and Army could not cope
with the menace? He didn’t know. All
he knew was that he couldn’t sit here
idle!

Lenore Case was leaving that night
for England as special correspondent

for the Sentinel. She was leaving on a
ship which might never get there. Britt
thought of this, too, and he suddenly
banged his fist down hard upon his
desk and decided, then and there, that
she would not go alone!

The Green Hornet was going with
her!

. . . Late that night, a black, gleam-
ing car slid silently through the murk
of the dimmed-out waterfront and came
to a stop before a pier. A figure in a
green mask stepped out. The Filipino
in the driver’s seat whispered, “Let me
go with you Missa Blitt.”

The Green Hornet shook his head.
“No, Kato, not this time.”

Kato started to protest, but the green-
masked figure had already disappeared
into the darkness. Kato hesitated for a
moment, reluctant to disobey his master’s
orders but then, gritting his teeth, he
drove the car into the blackness of an
alley between two vacant warehouses.

He made sure that Black Beauty was
well concealed, then hurried back to the
pier. This would be too dangerous a
voyage to let the Green Hornet take
alone !

Kato came to a halt on the pier as he
saw how well guarded the ship was —
he could never hope to sneak past those
wary soldiers unnoticed. He wasn’t the
Green Hornet. No, he’d have to figure
out some ruse by which he could get
aboard.

He remembered his press card, and
took it from his wallet. He showed
it to the Lieutenant in charge of the
guard detachment and said, “Miss
Lenore Case, war correspondent for the
Sentinel is on board. Must see her. Is
very important.”

The Lieutenant inspected his papers
and was evidently satisfied. “All right,”
he said, “but you’ll have to get off the
boat in five minutes. We’re shoving
off then.”

Kato hurried up the gangway, but
instead of going to Lenore’s compart-

ment, he ducked down into the hold
and secreted himself inside a General
Lee tank.

He didn’t know that the tank right
next to his contained the Green Hornet.

The supply ship sailed three days
without incident on a calm sea, but
on the dawn of the fourth day, things
began happening. A raft was sighted
with three men on it, evidently survivors
from a shipwreck.

The ship left its course to pick them
up, and too late was it noticed that the
raft was in reality a floating torpedo
tube! A torpedo shot forth from be-
neath the raft-camouflage, cut through
the water, and struck the supply ship
near the stern. The terrific explosion
sent the ship reeling and left a gaping
hole in its side. . The water rushed in.

The Green Hornet was in the hold at
that moment. Through the slits in the
tank, he saw the opening in the severed
steel plates. He did the only thing he
could do. He started the motor of the
tank and sent it thundering into the
hole, plugging it up.

Meanwhile the gun crew on deck
had disposed of the torpedo-raft and
its three occupants.

Kato climbed out of his tank and
helped the Green Hornet out of his —
there was no time for greetings, for
men were coming down the hatches to
see what had closed the opening in the
ship.

The Green Hornet and Kato hid
themselves as the men gaped in aston-
ishment at the tank in the hole. They
could only conclude that the impact of
the explosion had somehow miracu-
lously deposited it there.

At the close of the day they passed
the hulk of a large three-masted
schooner, sailing unmanned. Everyone
went up on deck to look at it. The
Captain told them it was a ghost ship,
a wandering hulk that he had seen on

many occasions. One of the crew mem-
bers suggested that it was a dangerous
thing to leave floating around. Ships
travel without lights, and one might
collide with that hulk some dark night.

The Captain saw the wisdom of this,
and ordered a few shells sent into the
big ghost ship. But no sooner did they
open fire than all hell broke loose!
Modern artillery suddenly protruded
from the hulk and began blasting away.

The supply ship was literally blown
to bits under the barrage. The Captain
gave the order to abandon ship and all
took to the lifeboats.

The Green Hornet and Kato escaped
from a porthole.

Lenore Case was the only one allowed
to come aboard the ghost ship, and only
because its captain had a taste for
pretty girls. The others were ordered
away under threat of death.

There was a tremendous splash and
that was the end of the supply ship.
The lifeboats floundered over the great
waves released by the descending ship.

The ghost ship was a camouflaged
warship which served as the mother
boat for the torpedo-rafts which were
set afloat to prey on Allied shipping.
This was the answer to the mystery.
This was Hitler’s new weapon to com-
pensate for the failure of his submarine
fleet.

But the members of the “ghost ship”
were not completely victorious — there
was still an enemy to be reckoned with
— the Green Hornet! He came silently
up the side of the ship, gas-gun in hand.

The Germans never knew what hit
them! When they awoke, the ghost ship
was in the hands of the survivors of
the supply ship. The game was up.

It cost that ship to uncover the Nazi’s
secret, but all agreed that it was well
worth it!

But only three people know who was
really responsible for the victory. Lenore
Case. Kato and Britt Reid — THE
GREEN HORNET!
