upon the need Of cooperation between

ties which are now offered.
Primarily, he said. the present high
cost of foods and materials is due TO
the destruction of life and property
by the war and TO the consumption of
liquid wealth. Not only in America. but
throughout the civilized world, workers
have manifested a desire to relax from
the rigors of wartime economies. and
at the same time, Governor Hard

OLD BOOK IS
STRANGE LEGEND
Columbus Offered the "New
Wo! d. to Great Britain
For the. Use Of
Ships

From the New York Evening Post
comes a strange and interesting ar
ticle on the probable movements OF
Columbus, the discoverer. The Post
says:
What might be called volume OF
early Americana has turned up in this
country in the discovery in q noted
nugget Of English literature Of pass
age referring to the proposition OF
Columbus, offering the "new world" TO
England If that country would fur
nish the ships.
Heretofore this book, "The Vision
and Discourse of Henry the Seventh"
by Thomas Gainsford, has been one
of the museum pieces of English lit
erature. Today, in sense, 1t can be
claimed rs early Americana. The
volume has been acquired by Henry
L. Huntington of New York, whose
private library of important English
literature is becoming well known.
There are onyl three copies Of this
book extant. Two are in America in
the Huntington collection and one in
England in the British Museum. 1t
was a "best seller" in its day.
Dream Of King
Thomas Gainsford, who served the
colors in Ireland for q number OF
years, wrote what he avowed to be q
dream of Henry VII, revealing in it
what might be done to save British
unity from the political and religious
disruptive influences for the time. In
it he flayed England for not taking up
the Italians offer. He says:
Once to Columbus we gave little heede
When he made proffer to the English
nation
That if we did but furnish him with
ships,
All Europe's glorie we might soon
eclipse.
He said he knew there was another
world,
And to the same he would the pilot be;
If skill did fail ore board he would be
hurl'd;
So sure he was that tn Indies he
should see. =,
Where was Of silver and OF gold
such store,
As in the old world was not scene
before. ,u
But we esteem'd his speech an idle
dreame,
But after long delay his suite denied:
We wey'd his words at our owne
fancies beanie
And thus repuls'd, he only thus reply
ed:
That he would all the Christian
trie,
And would not rest till all did him
denie.
The Huntington copy is the only one
remaining in the original vellum bind
ing. 1t is in excellent condition, with
gilt tooling of frames and tillets and
with corner and center ornaments OF
thistles on the front and back covers.
Sixty pages in all complete the book
a small quarto of which there was only
one edition, in 1910, Of some three
hundred copies. Its market value Is
estimated at about $4,000; the discov-
cry of the allusion to the "new world
likely will set a new figure for the
book. The title page reads:
"THE VISION AND DISCOURSE
OF HENRY the seventh. Concerning
the UNITE OF Great BRITTAINE.'
