A surge of protest overcame his spirit, followed by a cynical contempt for the futility of the best efforts of man. Impatiently he walked up to the superintendent of the mill. The latter touched a grimy hat. "We're on the last ten thousand tons for the United," he said with a note of pride "the mill's running fine." "It may be," snapped Clark acidly, "but shut it down.
