Oswald and Chief Edward Vaughn coordinate a sting while Oswald’s team shadows suspects near Altimonte shop and a hotel, as the search for missing items widens.

The discussion hints at the Grenworth jewels theft and hints Altimont may be concealing activity while Oswald quietly tests an electric furnace display. The piece also notes Federal Accounts Committee findings on Australia’s air defence and calls for an improved, possibly government controlled, air force framework and civil aviation’s defensive role.
