First Picture Of Waterspout

Stevens, noted army parachute jumper
and aerial picture man, seized cam
eras and made for open ports. Call
ing Pilot Hawkins through his speak
ing tube, Stevens asked him to circle
the spout, approaching as closely as
safety would permit.
"a sinister, frightful-looking mon
ster the spout had now become. like
a giant factory chimney linking the
heavens with the sea. Then, as it
grew in size and whirled and twisted,
it took the shape and appearance of
a great snake, spray and mist rising
in clouds from where it's tail dashed
the sea. Yet its writhing edges were
as clean-cut as broad band of black
ribbon.
"All day the sky had been overcast,
the sea calm, the air supercharged
with moisture. 1t was from partic-
ularly black, low-lying cloud that the
great spout had developed; and, as
we flew round and round it, Gayer and
Stevens made a series of pictures.
First they shot the straight, dark de-
scending line that marked the mon
sters formation then its great twist
ing black bulk; and, finally, long.
grayish snakelike arm that swung off
at 45 degrees-its lower end now
whipped out into thinning water
strands like the frayed tail of colos-
sal horse. BY my watch, it was ex-
actly seven minutes from the time the
spout first formed until it faded into
the black depths of the moving squall.
Twenty years ago my tramp steamer
in the China seas ran from a water
spout. Now, in a plane that could
fly 127 miles an hour, we impudently
played tag with one-and took its pic

Washincton.--An airplane has flown
rings around waterspout, permitting
the recording of the first still and mo-
ton pictures ever made from the air
of this awe-inspiring phenomenon.
The photographs of the twisting col
umn of water and vapor were made
between Miami and Havana by the
seaplane r'lrvey party of the National
Geographic society which is making
comprehensive aerial study of the geo.
graphic features and weather condi-
lions along the east coast flying routes
between North and South America.
Frederick Simpich, in charge of the
party, describes the unusual expert

black cloud, veered to port. Then, to
our amazement, there quickly dropped
from the north end of the storm cloud
the thin, writhing black column OF a

watched, it grew to black, whirling
corkscrew at least 600 feet high and
probably so feet or more in diameter.

he had been exporting, principally
to England and America, paintings
guaranteed by him to be the works
of Millet, Monet, Degas, Corot, Ce-

The works sent to England and

it is understood, for sums exceeding
$4,000.
A panic is growing in the Paris art
market owing to the widespread

by him to his grandfather and other
great artists.
The whole collection Of Millets in

Charles Millet, are also forgeries.
The paintings were made for him by

The Investigations which brought
this vast swindle to light began a

he had confided to Millet for sale and
for which he had received no pay

Pink and White, Symbolizin8 Innocence, Popular for Spring

Paris, March LF0 - Pink and white, symbols and daintiness and innocence are going to be conspicu- ous in the highly feminizcd fash ions of the coming spring it appears, Couturiers, having rcinstated long skirts and pinched-in waists. are seeing everything through rose col ored spectacles. Pink is the new spring shade, according to many, re- placing yellow, the rage of last year.
 Important fabric manufacturers, who supply the haute couture with materials, arc agreed that pink shades will be noticeable for sport and evening costumes in many lead- ing style houses.
 White is already an established favoritc with well dressed women, both for sport and evening dresses. White will retain all of it's prestige, according to the fabric people, and pastel shades. particularly pink, will supplement it.

for independence.
 If we weren't part of the United States we could be kept outside by immigration laws. I'm sure that if independence were granted nearly all the Filipinos would go back. for they are strongly patriotic and know they can't be assimilated here. The Filipino legislature would pass al, anti-emigration law because we will need men to work our resources.
 Then we have the unsolicited support of American, Cuban and Hawaiian sugar interests which arc very anxious for us to be indepen. dent so that we can't ship in any more duty-free sugar. But that is all right with us. for if we get inde- pendence we will be more self reliant. We will develop our brains and live simply and get along beau tifully. We can live for 50 cents q day in the Philippines.
 I've have the ku Klux klan on our side because it favors a purely white race of Americans. We arc very proud of our race. but we will be glad if the klan will help make us free.
 "The American and Cuban tobacco interests want us to be independcni | for the same reason which actuates ! the sugar men. The tobacco inter. csts are supposed 10 be very power. full and ] hope their influence is not exaggerated.
 Tn addition we have the true l American spirit of liberty on ouf side, but somehow we never got any where on sympathy and idealism.
 They Want It Now
 What We all want is immediate | independence. I don't know of a Filipino anywhere in the world who doesn't want that. At our last con. vention when someone on the plat. form would mention Independence the applause would last for an hour so the speakers had to stop men. tioning independence and refer to il by innuendo.
 There are two independence bill! in congress now, the King bill ant the Eandenberg bill. Dr. Moncadc favors the King bill because 1t would grant immediate independence. Tn, Nandenberg bill would free thu islands gradually, raising our tariff wall gradually against them over :; l0-year period.
