After a moment, he added: "General Maith supports General Gonzales completely; that's for publication. I'm authorized to say so. What else was there to do? They'd burned their villages and all their food stores. They had to be placed somewhere.
So it was just a case of the weaker man in the weaker position yielding." "Where does this put us?" "We are a civilian scientific project. You are under orders of General Maith. I am under your orders. I don't know about Edith." "Can I draft her, or do I have to get you to get General Maith to do it?" "Listen, don't do that," Edith protested.
It sounded less so when Maith continued: "They insisted on having one of their people at the Suzikami Building as an observer. I had to grant that." "That's going to mean trouble." "Oh, I shouldn't think so. This observer will observe, and nothing else. She will take no part in anything you're doing, will voice no objections, and will not interrupt anything you are saying to the shoonoon.
And they are claiming that there never was any swarming; according to them, Sanders' natives are striking for better pay and conditions, and Sanders got General Maith to use troops to break the strike. I wish we could give you credit for putting us onto this, but it's too late now." He nodded.
"I'll call him before I get in the sack." He went up on the bridge and made the call. General Maith looked as sleepy as he felt; they both yawned as they greeted each other. There wasn't much he could tell the general, and it sounded like the glib reassurances one gets from a hospital about a friend's condition. "We'll check in with you as soon as we get back and get our shoonoon put away.
Even a government dedicated to the betterment of the natives and unwilling to order military action against them was, it appeared, unwilling to take too many chances. Major General Denis Maith, the Federation Army commander on Kwannon, was considerably more than willing to find a temporary home for his witch doctors, now numbering close to two hundred.
"Governor general Kovac insisted on it; General Maith thought that a few minor concessions would help him on his main objective, which was keeping a swarming from starting out here." "Yes. The Commissioner of Native Welfare wanted that done, mainly at the urging of the Director of Economic, Educational and Technical Assistance. The EETA crowd don't like shoonoon.
He found that out when General Maith was on his screen, in the middle of the work on the fourth and fifth floors of the Suzikami Building. "The governor general just screened me," Maith said. "He's in a tizzy about our shoonoon. Claims that keeping them in the Suzikami Building will endanger the whole Terran city." "Is that the best he can do? Well, that's rubbish, and he knows it.
