We must not be misled by "false, specious idealism masquerading as progress". The fight is one for God as well as country, in which all forms of radicalism, materialism, and anarchy should be fiercely and promptly stamped out. Keynes, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, pp. 11-12. Tawney, R. H., The Acquisitive Society, pp. 183-184.
According to the negro, Tawney, when the Captain of the Macedonian seeing that the Neversink had his vessel completely in her power gave the word to strike the flag, one of his officers, a man hated by the seamen for his tyranny, howled out the most terrific remonstrances, swearing that, for his part, he would not give up, but was for sinking the Macedonian alongside the enemy.
"There's got to be something there," Doc said. "You tell me where else to look, and I'll do it." Doc shook his head ominously. "Tawney's not going to like it," he said. "There's no other place it could be...." "Well, at least we have this pair," the other said, jerking a thumb at Greg and Johnny. "They'll know." Doc looked at them darkly. "Yes, and they'll tell, too, or I don't know Tawney."
And through the story, the Major listened intently, interrupting only occasionally, pulling at his lip and scowling. "So we decided that the best way to convince you that we had the evidence you wanted was to bring Tawney back with us," Tom concluded. "A brilliant maneuver," the Major said dryly. "A real stroke of genius." "But then the Patrol ship intercepted us and told us we were under arrest.
Tawney told me that he distinctly heard this order given by the English Captain to his officers of divisions. Were the secret history of all sea-fights written, the laurels of sea-heroes would turn to ashes on their brows.
Then you proceeded to reduce that orbit-ship to a leaking wreck, although Tawney tried to reason with you and even offered you amnesty if you would desist.
"Hunter couldn't have taken anything away from there, he didn't have a chance to. You read the reports..." "I know," the other said wearily, "I know what the reports said." "Then what he found is still there. There's no other possibility," Tawney said. "We went over that rock with a microscope. We blew it to shreds. Assay has gone through the fragments literally piece by piece.
With a roar Greg swung at the little fat man. The blow caught Tawney full in the jaw, jerked his head back. Greg threw his shoulder into a hard left, slamming Tawney back against the wall. The guard charged across the room, dragging them apart as Tawney blubbered and tried to cover his face. Greg dug his elbow into the guard's stomach, twisted away and started for Tawney again.
Merrill Tawney stared first at Tom, then at Greg, and finally at the microphone. Then he moved. The orders he gave to his section chiefs were very clear and concise. He had never argued with a ghost before, and he didn't care to start now. It was over so quickly that it seemed to Tom it had just begun, and if so much had not been at stake, it might have been fun.
Bulkheads demolished, gaping holes torn in the outer shell, the air-reconditioning units smashed beyond repair.... Tawney buzzed for his first mate. An emergency switch cut into the line, with the frantic voice of a section chief. Johnny Coombs had been spotted disappearing into the ventilator shaft in the engine sector. "Well, go in after him!" Tawney screamed.
