castness. For the most determined
and sincere Of all revolutlonists who
ever stirred things up IN Venezuela
is Gen. Hernandez He IS the only
formidable revolutionist leader this
country has eseen who has not had his
price.
Hernandez has been a chronic re-
voIter. First he revoluted against
President Blanche, then against Pres
ideut Andrade, then against Castro
and now against Gomez.
Gomez has run things q little more
cautiously than Castro. but he has
continued the system of political
privilege and monopoly. The entire
country is burdened with taxes and
high prices. Gomez is even more uu-
popular than MS predecessor. The
time seems about ripe for another
successful revolution.
