   is being held until he finds the right solitary confinement

   alive, and tells Memín how the warden has whipped him and
   locked him up for a crime he didn't commit. Memín is
   noticed and taken to the warden, and the warden gets ready
   to whip Memín. Memín jumps out the window and hides on the
   school grounds. He hears two women talking about a ghost
   sighting around the school, and with a sheet and some
   stilts he scares the guards enough to make his escape.
   Meanwhile Elisa, the nurse who knows Carlos is innocent,
   visits Carlos's mother at the Red Cross hospital and brings
   her up to date on her son's situation. Carlos's mother
   brings up the fact that Carlos's father is rich and
   powerful. Since he has never taken the trouble to even ask
   about his son, she doesn't want to go to him for help. --

   Schwartz. 8 p. in Superman, no. 408 (June 1985) -- Summary
   (by Mary Walker): Superman finds a large intergenerational
   ship with a war raging on board most of the vessel while
   the control center seems at peace. He finds that the
   navigational caste has no idea of what is going on in the
   rest of the ship and little contact except in emergencies.
   Superman then goes to the main areas of the ship to stop
   the war. The combatants stop long enough to explain that
   they have "divided into nations according to our various
   races and religions. Differences inevitably lead to
   conflict!" and then resume their fighting. He wishes they
   could be persuaded to work together as they did in building
   the ship in the first place--that thought gives him an
   idea. He sends the ship to a suitable, uninhabited planet
   and they disembark taking their personal belongings and the
   useful machinery but leaving the weapons behind. A pleased
   Superman looks on at the aliens who have put violence and
   hate aside to make a new civilization. -- Call no.:
