erly. But you will forgive this when you
hear that he didn't have much time to
take. He knew that he was dying of con-
sumption. You will only think what a
pity it was that man who could snvent
so many thrilling incidents didn't have a
chance to write down all that was inj his
brain. He was actually working on his
five novels at once in his plucky race with
DEATH
You know how it is with people who
have a great deal to say and little time to
say it in. They gallop breathlessly. II
they had less to say it wouldn't be SO hard
to follow them. Brown had so much to
say that he wrote stories inside of stories,
and as like as not. stuffed both of them
inside a third. in a way you perhaps re-
member in the Arabian Nights" The
curious thing about him was that persons
who can invent so many improbable Incl
dents have not generally the ability to de-
scribe actual happenings, little or big But
Browns stories have something of the
same quality as "Gulliver's Travels and
Robinson Crusoe." They seem put down
by man on the spot, who really observed
it all. Brown is the sort of novelist who
would have made a first class reporter on
a New York paper. where a good reporter
always has two things at once in his
mind: to be as interesting and as actual
as possible
He placed the scene of all his stories in
America, and he used the romantic mate
rial of colonial life. This kind of story, it
is true, can never be placed in very real
surroundings; and his people are not so
much Americans as they are the shadowy
happen to. Nevertheless, here was another
man writing like Treneau-as if America
had no less and no more right to speak of
herself in literature than any other coun-
try had. This should always be the true
tone of patriotism. Those epics and those
magazines we have been speaking about
clustered a great deal. Generally, people
ness, they are only too conscious of, and
the immediate history of Browns novels
illustrates the weakness which was pre-
dominant everywhere in America for a
great many years to come.
Brown had written to his brother: THE
STABILITY of my works will. much depend
upon their popularity in England" He
was right. He had not been nine years
trying to establish magazines in America
without getting to know the American
public very we'll. Though nothing could
have betAer suited the taste of the time
than his exciting stories. and though they
were the sort which is always more inn
mediately popular than any other kind,
and though Americans had had very few
of this kind or of any kind to read, still
his books did not become successful at
home until Americans heard that England
approved of them. And Browns history
was to repeat itself i'm the case of very
many other authors. Perhaps, indeed, this
uneasy sort of patriotism is not yet en-
tirely gone from America. There are still
many people here who, while they are
blusteringly defiant of foreign disapproval.
are pathetically pleased when foreigners
applaud.

POOR FABRIC BLAMED
FOR CO ExPL OSION
(Rv Associated Pressl

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Oct IS A
board of inquiry today began an in
quiry to determine causes for the ex-
plosions which destroyed the army
dirigible C-2 yesterday just as it was
starting with II passengers on an ex-
hibition flight over the city. The 1872
foot dirigible which had completed a
cross country flight from Langley
field, Va, to San Francisco, and was
on its homeward voyage, is complete
wreck with no salvage.
Eight of the passengers were injured
when they jumped 10 to 20 feet just
before the C-2's hydrogen ignited.
Major H. A. Strauss commander of
the CO was expected to testify he be-
lieved the accident was caused by
fabric pulling out of the envelope as
the big dirigible started from the
Brooks field hangar. This is the opin-
ion Of some officers implies that the
fabric used in constructing the dirigi-
BILE was not up to standard
Major Strauss estimate of the value
of the C-2 was $4,000. 1t originally

JOHN HAYS HAMMOND
SELECTED CHAIRMAN
OF COAL COMMISSION
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-John Hays
Hammond was elected chairman of the
federal commission appointed by
President Harding to investigate the
coal industry and recommend govern
mental or industrial policies which
may be enforced in the future at its
first meeting today.
The policy and method of procedure
of the commission also were taken up
for preliminary discussion, but mem
bers said some time would be required
to formulate their views on the point.
Mr.. Hammond called on President
Harding before the meeting and made
an engagement for the president to
receive the full commission later in
the day. Only six of the commission
