  The Beast-Helper by Frank Belknap Long - The story of a dictator who sought to hold power by allying himself psychically with a powerful beast. 
  The Dictator sat energetically erect, and delivered his pronouncements in a cold, metallic tone. To the American correspondent he seemed like an automaton-a flesh-and-blood machine that functioned at white heat, and expressed itself in a manner wholly remorseless. 
  The Dictator sat before his desk in his spacious, walnut-paneled study. His fat, pudgy face was aglow with fanatical rancor. "Trivania will become the most powerful corporate state in Eastern Europe," he said."Our cause is a sanctified one, and we shall march from triumph to triumph. We intend ruthlessly to suppress all-dissenting opinion."  
  The American correspondent was scribbling hastily. Suddenly he looked up, looked at the Dictator. "May I quote this?" he asked.  
  "Yes, Mr. Thompson. You may quote me at length."  
  Mr. Thompson was a thin, pale little man with mild blue eyes. He looked conspicuously harmless, to the Dictator. A smile of scorn curled the Dictator's heavy lips as he contemplated the press man.  
  But the American correspondent had more iron in him than the Dictator. It was a different kind of iron. Mr. Thompson was a profound skeptic and a scientific humanist. To Mr. Thompson the Dictator was a savage barbarian.  
  The Dictator continued to profess himself. We shall be merciless to the critics of the state," he said. "Representative government is an absurdity, an historical anachronism. We will relentlessly repress–"  
  Suddenly he stopped, and his mouth fell open.

  The Planet of Illusion by Millard V. Gordon - "A phantom land and a phantom folk Come sailing out of the deep unknown With a soundless roar and a lightless flash To conquer a void for them alone." 
  "Planet sighted!" sang out Kendall, eye glued to the electro-telescope. 
  "Where away?" rang Fred Broster from his place at the controls. 
  "Five point on ten left from star. Point three seven above the elliptic," came Kendall's voice again from the forward observation window. 
  "You're daft and dreaming. Snap into it and look again," Broster yelled, staring hard at the automatically-recording space-chart. "There's nothing here but a particularly empty species of nothingness." 
  The captain's keen gray eyes stared carefully at the glowing panel before him. On it shone out tiny points of light which revealed each of the different bodies through whose vicinity the Astralite was passing. A remarkable device actuated by delicate gravital detectors which marked out every body they approached. 
  And according to this chart, there was no such planet recorded in the depths of the device as that which Kendall had sighted. 
  "I'm not dreaming. Your chart is wrong if you can't find it there," Kendall remarked after a pause, still staring through the lens of the instrument. 
  Broster examined the chart again. No; there positively was no planet circling the star as his observer claimed. 
  "Come away from there!" he called, straightening up. "Dr. Seaward, will you please take the observer's place and check." 
  Seaward dropped the calculations in hand, walked across the control room of the great interstellar explorer, up to the very tip. Kendall stood aside while the doctor applied his eye to the lens. 
  "It's there all right, Broster. A little red disk exactly where he called it off; the chart's wrong."
