paint or department store for the three great Linx home brighteners, the modern
3:47
shortcuts to new home beauty. And now for today's exciting case from the life
3:58
of Nick Carter. It's quiet in the old Victorian mansion on the corner of
4:01
fifth and fourth. Nick Carter is working on some intricate Analin die tests.
4:05
Patsy is transcribing notes. A long, calm afternoon of intensive work is ahead.
4:12
Suddenly the telephone rings. Nick Carter's, Patsy's Nick clearant rally, you
4:18
sound excited? Anything wrong? Lindy's wrong? It be touching, Nick,
4:23
how, Hold of a second, what's brother Riley today? He won't tell
4:26
me here? Thanks, ah, Riley? What's on him? You've got
4:29
to hush her down to my office on why I got the cases will blow
4:32
on the top off the city if it breaks. She has got to be
4:34
checked. What's behind it. Do you ever hear of World Research who hasn't
4:38
rally the biggest industrial chemists and research labs in the country. Well, there's
4:42
a guy down here named Bigger. He's accusing him of murder. Ohse murder.
4:45
You will find out when you pit here. Come on, ose murder.
4:47
Riley his old murder. This guy Bigger here is claiming he's dead already.
5:02
Nick, This here is mister Baker, Mister Baker, Nick Cutton.
5:06
I want him to hear your story. Go ahead, mister Baker. How
5:10
has World Research murdered you? Already? As I stand before you? And
5:14
now, mister Carter, I'm a dead man. She'll be buried in a
5:15
very few days. Go on. I'm an inventor, miss to Carter,
5:19
not by profession but by hobby. During the day, I'm a broker.
5:23
Evenings, I work in my laboratory. I've been doing research with a friend
5:26
of mine named John Drey. You can check that. Get on with your
5:29
storry, man. I want you to check it to prove I'm not crazy.
5:32
Welldrey and I have perfected a new radio development that will revolutionize the industry,
5:36
been patented. You can check that too. We will decide what to
5:40
check, mister Baker. Go ahead. World Research has been after us for
5:43
weeks to sell out to them. We refused. Apparently they were desperate.
5:46
Today I found this piece of apparatus connected inside one of my experimental machines.
5:50
To look at it. What a messy wires and tubes that he is.
5:56
Was brought into my laboratory by World Research. It's a gamma ray projector tremendous
6:00
power. All the while my experimental radio has been operating, this little horror
6:03
has been projecting gamma rays until my body is saturated with them. I can't
6:08
live. Gentlemen, World Research has murdered me. What do you want us
6:11
to do? Check my story from beginning to end. Then let me come
6:15
down here and begin action against World Research. If I'm going to die,
6:17
mister Carter, I want my revenge before I'm in the great Mister Baker,
6:21
you're talking like an idiot. Night it's a Baker were donnoth Riley and I'll
6:27
give this case I most careful attention. You ask for a vengeance, I
6:31
premise to this, you will get it if you deserve it. Well,
6:49
Nick, I'm finished, Pantcy. Is this apparatus? Baker brought in really
6:54
deadly. No, you mean he lied. I'm not sure. All I
6:59
do know is that this so called gamma ray projectors' just a mess of tubes
7:02
and wires. It doesn't make sense. Then the whole case doesn't make sense.
7:06
And why did Baker come in with that tall story? Yes, possible,
7:12
Old world research may be trying to buy him out. White claim murder
7:15
such an odd, impossible murder. Maybe he's whacky, Nick, I hear
7:20
most inventors are. Maybe. Well, there's one way to find out.
7:25
Get the car, Pascy. We're going to visit mister Baker in his laboratory.
7:44
Nick, come out of breath. How much higher? One flight?
7:46
The jennifer said, Baker's labs on the top floor. I hope I can
7:49
make it, take my arm. How you're sure Baker's in, as the
7:55
janitor said, so, and maybe we are. That's pretty quiet in there.
8:05
Maybe he went out. Wait a minute, that's joys open. Let's
8:16
go in. Gosh, what I missed this place is I thought all lambs
8:20
were neat like yours, Nick, and there really efficient ones. Doesn't seem
8:26
to be anybody here. I can't understand it. Lights on the door on
8:30
the locked Nick behind that table on the floor. Look, oh, oh
8:37
Baker? All right he did, isn't he? Yes? Then he was
8:41
right about those gamma raising things. This time, no one bothered with science.
8:46
Someone simply got to be evolved. Very aimed at mister Baker and shut
8:50
him to death. I got over here as fast as I could, Nick.
9:05
If this ain't this crueut case, I ever came acros looked the body
9:09
over Riley, I've already made a preliminary inspection. He was shot at close
9:13
rand with a twenty five caliber gun Colt automatic, one of those ladies size
9:18
pocketbook automatics. Then, yes, who come here so sure? Nick?
9:20
Because I found the ejected shell right here? See? Well, what is
9:26
it, Nick, something I hadn't noticed before? Look there under the body
9:31
and just see the edge of the handle, Colory b Is watch out for
9:35
prints on it? Oh, Nick, I no better than that as usual,
9:41
mister Carter, who's the twenty five automatic? You have a look at
9:43
a rally, Nick. Maybe mister Baker shot himself. Maybe he was so
9:48
desperate about those gamma rays and stuff. Actually he didn't commit suicide, he
9:52
was murdered. Who come here so sure, Nick, Patsy could be right.
9:54
You know, look the gun over by reflected light, got a print
9:58
on it? How goot a man ca himself and then wipe his prints off
10:01
the gun? Obviously someone held this gun with a handkerchief or glove kill.
10:05
Baker dropped the gun and left question number one. I'd also like to know
10:11
how valuable his invention really is and who profits by his death. Where are
10:15
you going to start to get the answers? We'll try John Dray, Baker's
10:18
partner first. Maybe mister Dre's an authority and murder. It's true, mister
10:37
Cutter. How radio development is potentially worth a fortune. It's new and tremendously
10:41
important. Look over the patent yourself. We registered it jointly, mister Dre.
10:46
If you were partners, how is it you and Baker worked in separate
10:50
labs Research was only a hobby with Baker. He had a regular brokerage business
10:54
outside. He wanted a place where he could work now and then three four
10:58
hours a day. Exactly how much did World Research offer you to sell out
11:03
quarter of a million? And you refused, mister Dress, Not exactly.
11:07
We made a counter offer. And now that Baker's dead and the patent's all
11:11
yours. You're waiting for the answer. I certainly not. I told you
11:15
we registered the patent jointly. I can't touch Baker's share. Can you tell
11:18
me who does inherit Baker's share? His sister? I believe Julia Baker.
11:22
She lives with him. Over again, I know the address. Thanks a
11:26
lot, mister dre Oh. By the way, eh, what are it
11:30
possible to develop an electrical gamma ray projector what nonsense? I thought you were
11:35
as scientist? Mister Carter, you know gamma rays can only be produced by
11:39
radioactive elements. Yes, I know it. I'm just wondering if Baker knew,
11:43
I'd know it. Come on, Patsy, let's pay a visit to
11:46
Baker's there. Yes, I suppose it's true. I inherit Ben's share in
12:05
the invention, mister Carter, I never thought about it much, Miss Baker.
12:09
Tell me, do you know if there's a copy of the patent here?
12:13
I don't know. I think it's with Ben's attorney, that's Roland York
12:16
at Maiden Lane. W is your brother working on it very long? For
12:22
years? It seems I don't know where he found the time. I hardly
12:26
ever saw him outside of Sundays. He spent Sunday with me. He worked
12:30
very hard at the brokerage, ten hours a day. What did he do?
12:33
He was the statistical expert. No time all, hardly any must have
12:37
been pretty lonesome here for you. It was even at night when he came
12:41
home from work. He couldn't spend much time with me. He was so
12:45
tired. He'd just have dinner and then go to bed. What were his
12:50
ours at the brokerage office, Miss Barrett. He worked from nine in the
12:52
morning and till nine at night, usually pretty stiff hours. What time did
12:58
you have dinner at home? Around nine thirty and then your brother went to
13:01
bed, Yes, around eleven. I see, I I can't understand who'd
13:09
want to murder my brother, mister Carter. He was a good man,
13:13
was friendly, was interested in everybody. He oh for Heaven's sake, mister
13:18
Carter, who killed him? I don't know yet, Miss Baker. Frankly,
13:24
at the moment, I'm much more interested in another problem. Why I
13:28
don't understand mister Carter. Come along, Bessie, I want to have a
13:31
talk with the janiture of the building where Baker's lab is located. Nectar's this
13:50
fantastic problem that bothering you have anything to do with Baker's murder? Maybe the
13:54
crux of the murder, I mean, the answer to why Baker lied about
13:58
that Gamma ray Projector No, then I don't get it. Here's the building,
14:05
all right? Come on, okay, here's the janitor's door. Yes,
14:18
you remember me, Nick Carter working on the Baker case. Oh sure,
14:22
come on in, mister Carter. It's awful hot here out on the
14:26
sidewalk. No, I've only come to ask you one question. Oh here,
14:30
go ahead. When did mister Baker usually work in his laboratory? Why?
14:33
Every day? You're sure? Aye? Sure? He worked here every
14:37
day Monday through Saturday. He come morning, sometime sometime afternoon, sometimes evenings.
14:46
But I see him come in here every day except Sandy. He always
14:50
make it the point to say hello to me when he comes in and goes
14:54
out. How long did he usually work? In? Four hour stretches credive
15:01
four hours a day, six days a week, makes twenty four hours one
15:05
whole day? Warm blazers? Did he get that extra day? Nick?
15:09
What on earth are you talking about? Don't you see Betsy Ben Baker.
15:13
Somebody shot at us from across the street. That's how the flashes thrown the
15:16
janitor. He's been shot. Help me get him inside, Patsy quick,
15:20
all right? Is he hurt badly? Patsy? This man is dead.
15:33
What is this mysterious question that's bewildering Nick? Why was the janitor in ben
15:37
Baker's lab building murdered? We'll see you in just a moment. All of
15:41
us learn best by doing. That's why American homemakers who have used Linax self
15:46
polishing wax have learned so quickly how different, how perfect the quick drying wax
15:50
can be. For one practical test is all you need to prove to yourself
15:56
that this new wax preparation is the key to perfect floor care for wood and
16:00
linoleum alike. The formula for LINEX self polishing wax, developed by leading research
16:06
chemists, is completely new, giving new beauty, new protection, new skid
16:10
resistance to all your floors. And Linax self polishing wax contains the greatest possible
16:15
amount of genuine carnavo wax for that handsome satiny look only real wax can give.
16:22
What's more, the underwriter's laboratories have proved by test that any linoleum,
16:26
hardwood, or rubber tile floor is actually less slippery after Linax self polishing wax
16:32
has been applied, as you'll prove for yourself the moment you step on it.
16:36
And of course, Linex self polishing wax takes only a jiffy to use,
16:40
or you simply wipe it on without tiresome rubbing, and it dries quickly
16:45
to a beautiful luster. That's a joy to behold. So choose genuine Linax
16:48
self polishing wax, the finest product of its kind. Ask your dealer now
16:53
for all three great Linax home brightness to give your home new beauty the easy
17:00
way. And now back to our story. The strange murder of Ben Baker
17:11
Broker, an amateur inventor, has faced Nick caught her with many peculiar problems.
17:15
Why did Baker lie about his impending death? How important was his invention?
17:19
Who would profit by his death? As Nick uncovers an even more fantastic
17:23
problem, Baker's janitor is shot to death. Now we find Nick, Patsy
17:27
and Lieutenant Riley at the scene of the second murder. Nickay, I'm really
17:32
lost. They can't make hither tail of this mess. Can't you give us
17:34
any idea of what's going on? Nick? Why was Baker's janitor killed?
17:38
Probably because he knew some vital clue to the identity of the murderer. What's
17:44
this big question? You see his button? Riley? How can a man
17:47
live eight days in one week? Oh, that's silly, Nick, There's
17:52
only seven days in anybody's week. Nevertheless, Ben Baker lived eight days in
17:56
a week. I don't understand, nick O. Listen. They worked twelve
18:00
hours a day in the brokerage house, including an hour off for lunch.
18:03
He left his house at eight in the morning for work, maybe turned at
18:07
nine forty five or so for dinner. After dinner he went to bed.
18:11
I've checked all those times and they're all verified. Which he counts for twenty
18:15
four hours. Right. According to the janitor's testimony, he worked at least
18:18
four hours a day, six days a week in his lab. That's an
18:22
extra twenty four hours, an extra day. I wor did Baker get that
18:26
eighth day in his week? Gosh, don't make sense. You're telling me
18:30
what in the jumping blue places is going on around here? A guy comes
18:33
around and says he's been murdered and he ate. When you check his toney,
18:37
you find all of a suddenly he is then the killer out's offer Janitor
18:41
after he's already given his evidence. Then we find the only one who profits
18:44
by Baker's death is his sister, who's a frightened girl that looks as though
18:48
she wouldn't hurt a fly. Wait a minute, Baker was knocked off with
18:51
a twenty five automatic gets a woman's gun. But Baker accused World research.
18:56
What have we gotta do about it? You get a search, want riling
18:59
us at the office of Baker's attorney, Roland York. I want to get
19:03
a look at that patent. Okay, Nick, been all through the files,
19:21
and here's everything there is on that invention. Oh gosh, what a
19:23
mess of documents. Though it's as much trouble patenting an invention as it is
19:27
making one. Yes, really anything forty about this stuff? Strangely enough,
19:36
no, Apparently Baker and Drey have worked out quite a brilliant improvement on radio
19:41
television transmission. It's not epoch making, but it's sort of thing that can
19:47
cut costs of transmission. M patent seems to be legitimate, made out by
19:56
Baker and Dray jointly. That's what Dray said. Here's something Baker's share goes
20:02
to his sister when he dies, and that's what she said. But here's
20:07
something no one mentioned. Who was that if Baker and Drey both die before
20:12
commercial exploitation of the idea begins, Roland York the Attorney acquires all commercial rights,
20:19
subject to the obligation to pay both theirs their fair share. Are you
20:22
thinking what I'm thinking, Patty? I know what you're both thinking. That
20:26
maybe John Drey's the next man's schedule to die. That may be true,
20:30
So let's get busy, all right? What do we do rob against the
20:33
shrewd killer? And we don't know exactly what he's after, although I have
20:37
a hunch if we knew where Ben Baker got his extra day, we'd be
20:40
a lot closer to the solution. Raley, get hold of Roland Yorke,
20:44
call him for questioning as tactfully as you can. Right, Nick, Patsy,
20:48
you and I are going places where to John Drey's laboratory to protect you.
20:51
Maybe also maybe to find Ben Baker's extra day raised place up ahead asy
21:11
last or hell lights gosh, maybe Dray's been killed already. You're remembering the
21:17
way we found Baker. All right, let's go in. Oh's that?
21:22
Oh sorry, mister Dray. You startled me. But who are you?
21:29
Oh? Let me introduce myself, mister Dray. My name is Kent.
21:32
I'm from World Research. What are you doing here? Why? I well,
21:37
I was sent over to express our deep sympathy for your recent bereavement.
21:42
So and also you understand how embarrassing it is to talk business at such a
21:49
time. Go on, well, and also to say that your counterproposal is
21:55
really much too high. You'll think chan you must reconsider, mister Dre.
22:00
Now that Baker is dead, I don't understand Baker was the one who was
22:04
holding out for the high price. Wasn't think what mister Dre. Now that
22:07
Baker's out of the way, you brazen ly come here hoping you can persuade
22:11
me to accept a smaller figure. I assure you, Nick, I just
22:15
realized maybe it isn't Roland joke. Maybe Baker told the truth about World Research.
22:18
Maybe the pattern does threaten their business. Why maybe they did I hear
22:22
you call this man? Nick? I had assumed I was speaking to mister
22:25
John Dre Do you mean to tell me that I what's the meaning of this?
22:29
What are you people doing in my land investigating murder? Mister dra So,
22:33
I was right. You are an impostor. This is outrageous. How
22:36
is there? Carter? Will you have the goodness to explain what's going on
22:38
here? It's really quite simple, mister Dray. We came here to throw
22:42
a little light on the murder mystery. Yes, say that again, Say
22:48
what really, Carter? This is ridiculous. Repeat what you said, Patsy,
22:52
I said, we came to mister Drey's laboratory to throw a little light
22:56
on the murder. That's it. Light light in the laboratory. And that's
22:59
the explanation. The explanation of course, Ben Baker's extra day, I think
23:03
I know where he got it. Come on, where to Let's go have
23:04
a look at Baker's electric meter. What's an electric meter got to do with
23:19
an extra day? It'll show where it went. Yeah, through this door
23:25
down to the cellar. Watch your step, pretty dark, I've got a
23:30
flash. Gosh, the tellers in these old loft buildings are creepy, like
23:34
catacombs. Yes, it's so deep. These stairs go down forever we won't
23:40
be long. Flash a light around with your Nick, afraid only a mice?
23:45
Careful? Here's the bottom going trip or it's pretty broken up? Now?
23:51
Where are the meters? Oh? There they are, Nick, over
23:53
there against the far wall, behind that pile of barrels. All right,
23:56
come on, who's the killer? Nick? Do you know? Not for
24:00
sure yet? And I've got a pretty good idea. Maybe Julia Baker isn't,
24:04
as we can, helpless as she seems. Maybe maybe I was right
24:07
about world research. Maybe maybe Roland Joe got ambitious. Maybe can't you say
24:12
anything? But maybe here's the meters les see first? Second? Oh,
24:19
the top floor offices Baker's was six hours There it is on the right,
24:26
Yes, and there I hope is a solution to the case. Where on
24:30
the dials read off the killer white eyes? Why? Nick? Because when
24:33
we compare the meter reading now with the reading a month ago, we'll find
24:37
that very little electricity has been used. Nick, I can't follow you.
24:41
What is that the killer? Nick? We're trapped? No, Patsy,
24:47
not quite. Then I'm come a little closer when I give the word,
24:49
help me push these barrels over? All right? No, Petsy, Nick,
25:00
all right, we can come out now. Our friends been not cold.
25:03
We'll find him under a couple of crates. Who is it, Nick?
25:07
Put your light on quickly. In a second, I'll be happy to
25:10
illuminate the very unattractive face of your murderer. There you are, Gee,
25:15
Nick, That yes, mister John Dre. In just a moment, Nick
25:29
will return to give you the final details of today's story and explain why John
25:33
Dre killed the man who lived too long. The best way to keep up
25:37
the appearance of the things you own is to protect them. And the finest
25:41
protective finish you can find for dozens of household uses is LINEX Clear Gloss,
25:47
the modern brush on finish for linoleum and wood surfaces. Here's the self leveling
25:52
gloss finish, which flows on easily and dries to a lasting finish that protects
25:56
for months. Protects not only against wear, against dirt, against spotting,
26:00
but actually protects against hot, grease, boiling, water, fruit acids,
26:03
even alcohol. Yes, for any surface you want to save, it pays
26:07
to use LINEX Clear Gloss and Linux Clear Gloss lends sparkling beauty as well,
26:14
requiring only the whisk of a damp cloth to wipe away surface smudges, give
26:18

27:08
Nick, where did Baker get that extra day? He didn't can That's
27:11
the point of the whole case. Baker never spent any time at all in
27:15
that lab. If he had worked there experimenting, his meter would have registered
27:19
many hours of electricity. But as it was, the meter showed almost no
27:25
electricity used at all. But Nick, the janitor said he was there,
27:27
which is why the janitor was killed. John Drey rented the lab in Baker's
27:33
name, then he killed the janitor to keep him from telling me that the
27:37
man found dead in the lab Baker wasn't the man who said hello to him
27:41
as he went in and out. But why was that necessary? Nick?
27:44
Baker and Dray made the mistake of patenting their invention jointly. Now, the
27:48
patent law is very strict on one point. It provides that only the actual
27:52
inventor is permitted to take out the patent. If any other name appears on
27:56
the patent, it's thereby automatically voge oh I see. So word research could
28:02
have broken the patent if they found out that Baker was not an invented but
28:06
merely Drey's financial backer, right Patsy. And rather than take that chance,
28:10
Drey tried to set up a false identity for Baker. He told Baker to
28:14
go to the police with his story about being murdered, hoping that when the
28:18
police checked up on him, they'd believe that Baker actually was a practicing scientist.
28:22
Well, then why did he kill Baker? After all? Drey was
28:25
afraid someone might cross examine Baker and get the truth. We killed Baker to
28:30
keep the secret secure. Well, Nick, how about a little preview of
28:33
next week's story. On next weekend, Patsy and I are called to the
28:36
home of the foremost amateur art collector in the country to find out why one
28:38
of his portraits has suddenly started squinting. Did you say squinting? He did,
28:45
and he wouldn't have been able to break the case if he hadn't taken
28:48
the fingerprints of a man who died two hundred years ago. Fingerprints two hundred
28:52
years old and squinting portraits. For the love of Pete Nick. What do
28:56
you call this case? I call it the case of the near cited picture.
29:07

Well, this was actually a pretty clever mystery. I like the concept of
31:30
the extra day, and I was somewhat baffled by the motive for murder of
31:38
having filled out a patent application incorrectly and that being the only remedy. But
31:48
other than that solid episode, by the way, the four episodes that we
31:53
missed were Short Range Death, Murder in CEL seventeen, the corpse accuses and
32:00
D is for death, and we'll have another couple lost episodes before we get
32:07
to next week's show that will actually do it for today. We will be
32:13
back tomorrow with yours truly, Johnny Doller, and then be sure and listen
32:19
to us next Thursday for another episode of Nick Carter Master Detective. In the
