Passports or Passwords Requisite for

 George W. Crishfeld, in Everybody's.
 To enter Venezuela one needs a pass port, sealed, with certihcations and stamps; to move from one place to an- other more passports, more consula- tions with military jefes; to board a ship. permission from the local res- guardo from the jefe civil and perhaps other functionaries. Everywhere one goes one Is held up by policemen and soldiers, and compelled to give an ac- count of ones self On dozen differ ent occasions, when have been walk ing the streets of Caracas, Valencia, Puerto Cabello, or Maracaibo, my thoughts concentrated on some sub ject far from the bedevilment of Vene- zuela, have been brought to my senses by the shout of .Qulen viva7" and had Mauser leveled at me. Bos- ton professors, the anti-Imperialliets and Mir. J. W. Foster may like this sort of thing, and I may be unduly sensitive. but I must confess that these conditions of uneasiness and this shouting of "Quien viwa?" finally got on my nerves like the whirr of . rattlesnal1e.
