The novelettes were originally published in Thrilling Wonder Stories, listed below:
The Alien Machine
Thrilling Wonder Stories
June 1949
Volume XXXIV, No. 2
The Shroud of Secrecy
Thrilling Wonder Stories
December, 1949
Volume XXXV, No. 2
The Greater Conflict
Thrilling Wonder Stories
February, 1950
Volume XXXV, No. 3
You may wish to check Archive.org for those issues. It's possible they may have them (in PDF).
The novelettes were later collected and published by Shasta Press in 1952.

Thanks for the info. I might check with Wildside and John Betancourt then!
I'll also look into Archive.org. I saw a number of Jones' books in the Gutenberg library, but I am not sure it is out of copyright.
Thanks again!
