Joe Mauser, suppressing his frown, made with the usual amenities. Balt Haer without answering them, finished his drink in a gulp and stared at the newcomer. The old stare, the aloof stare, an aristocrat looking at an underling as though wondering what made the fellow tick. He said, finally, "I see you have been raised to Rank Major." "Yes, sir," Joe said. "We are obviously occupied, major.
That will be all for now, captain." Joe saluted and executed an about face. In the outer offices, when he had closed the door behind him, he rolled his eyes upward in mute thanks to whatever powers might be. He had somehow gained the enmity of Balt, his immediate superior, but he'd also gained the support of Baron Haer himself, which counted considerably more.
But the Baron wasn't blind to reality any more than he was a coward. He dismissed Balt Haer's defeatism from his mind and came back to Joe Mauser. "As I say, you're the only officer recruit today. Why?" Joe said evenly, "I wouldn't know, sir. Perhaps freelance Category Military men are occupied elsewhere. There's always a shortage of trained officers." Baron Haer was waggling a finger negatively.
Paul's Epistles, and the very 'chairs of the Apostles, preserved at Corinth and elsewhere. H. E. vi. 12. Hilgenfeld, Ev. Justin's, p. 157. I hope I may consider this a proof that the classification above given has not been influenced by bias. S.R. i. p. 354, ii. p. 28. Haer. 428 D. Justin's, p. 157.
She smiled at him, somewhat mockingly, and failed to make standard response. Nadine Haer said, "I repeat, what is this service the captain can render the house of Haer so important that pressure should be brought to raise him to Upper caste? It would seem unlikely that he is a noted scientist, an outstanding artist, a great teacher "
Of course, to keep her company at all it had been necessary to suppress his own desires and to go along. It obviously had never occurred to her that a Middle might have romantic ideas involving Nadine Haer. It had simply not occurred to her, no matter the radical teachings she advocated. Most of their world was predictable from what had gone before.
He wondered if he was becoming useless. Max stuck his head in the door and said, "Major, sir, one of these here Hungarians wants to see you." "Who?" Joe growled. "And why?" "It's that Lieutenant Colonel Kossuth one, sir. I told him Doc Haer said you couldn't be bothered, but he don't seem to take no for an answer."
"The captain probably didn't realize that," Balt Haer snorted. "Otherwise his heroics would have been modified." Warren flushed his displeasure and sat down. He said, "Possibly we should discuss the business before us. If your father is in agreement, the fracas can begin in three days." He turned to the representative of the Sov-world.
So, still in control of the machinery of government, they continued to perpetuate themselves, and shortly as history is reckoned we found the conquerors assimilated and the mandarins still in power." Balt Haer said impatiently, "I seem to be under the impression that you were speaking of more current times, when I entered, Mr. Holland."
"You have political pull, sir. Oh, I know you don't make and break presidents. You couldn't even pull enough wires to keep Hovercraft from making this a divisional magnitude fracas but you have pull enough for my needs." Baron Haer leaned back in his chair, his barrel-like body causing that article of furniture to creak. He crossed his hands over his stomach.
