elements of individualism which fight
so singularly well by hundreds or
thousands when they are convinced
of the necessity Of common defense
of their castles in which they would
lead their own lives. So they fought
in that old tradition of the Colonial5,
now well matured Washington kept
them sufficiently united and disci-
plined to win the victory.
He presided at the convention
which made the Constitution to safe
guard individualism in a permanent
charter. The men who had fought
against being governed too much had
had more than enough Of governing
after eight years of the Presidency.

may be still survivors Of the old ira
dition who hope there will be viii

In with the advance at the capture
of Fort Duquesne, where Pittsburgh
now stands. After that all the in
oividualists could return TO their
castles; Washington went to his own,
to improve his fortune and his plan
tation. The accounts and letters OF
this methodical planter who was so
intrepid afield show that his was no
five-day week.
Rebellion Was Public Answer.
But King George had begun taxa
ton without representation-he had
begun RECOMMENDATION. Without the
consent of those who had to pay, men
in far-off London were levying taxes
upon a land they had never seen.
The top was telling the middle and
the bottom what they might and
might not do In their own private
affairs. No settler must interfere
with the land grants to companies
organized by loyal favorites. He
might not take up land in the do
minions won from the French without
a license.
This was seen as serfdom. 1t might
go in Europe, but not in sight of the
Blue Ridge. "Squatter rights" was
the individual answer; rebellion was
the public answer. 1t might be said
that our second revolution is for
regimentation, while our first was
against it.
When the Washington of 43-in
the very prime of mental and physical

hard school Of individuahsm, took

ing restaurant. It is not generally
known and carries no big Illuminating
sign outside. There is nothing par
ticularly secret about it, but you will
not find its number in the telephone
book-that Is, not as a restaurant.
The place is en- the second floor Of
a building in the Forties. The cook
ing is inpeccable and the liquors re-
liable.
The proprietor, who Is also tie chef,
Is fascinating character. He was
born IN Africa. but is a -blooded
white Frenchman. He served three
years in Africa with the famous
Zouaves. Though he is more than so
years old, and 1t has been a long
time since he packed rifle, you could
spot him anywhere as an ex-soldier,
and Of crack regiment at that. A
curved nose and heavily Ldded eyes,
with a sardonic expression, give him
a hawk-Eke appearance. His vocabu-
larry Is no less picturesque than his
exterior. He can talk in four Ian
guages with all the idiom of Rabelais.
His establishment is not reserved
for those of any particular nation. It
is the haunt of the adventurers and
wanderers from all parts of the globe.
There you will find Venezuelans, Ital-
ians, Swedes, Danes, Russians.
Under his eyes passes a panorama
Of plots and intrigues He listens
and observes with great glee, but
never takes part In the complottings.
And don't try to hang up a check
on him on the presumption that
within few months you may be
minister Of finance somewhere north
or south of the Equator. He will
laugh in your face.
Newspaper Planes interfere.
One aspect of the revolution pic
ture in New York is illustrated by the
following episode:
At one stage of the fighting Ia
Cuba there was a battle at the mouth
of a railroad tunnel. The leader of
the government troops, in reporting
the battle, declared that he would
have won but for the fact that the
revolutionists had airplanes flying
overhead ready to bomb the Macha-
distas. This report was received with
a loud chuckle. The eirplanes were
newspaper planes! A reporter in
New York had received word several
days in advance that this battle would
take place. Consequently. his paper
was able TO tip of its Havana cor
respondent, who not only got birds
eye view Of a first-hand account Of
the scrap but aerial photographs.
In other words. if you know where
70 20 and get the confidence Of the
right people you can learn about
some of these revolutionary move
ments not after they have hap
pened, but before. Would you like
a little prophecy. for instance? The
boys who are doing the plotting say
that it is q toss-up whether the
next blow-off will come in Venezuela
or Argentina. The story goes that
the Venezuelan affairs will be Of bOl'
shevist pattern; in Buenos Ayres the
ways are all creased for a Fascist
coup d'etat. However, it should be
added that in Argentina Fascism Is
so close to bolslevism that only by
the names can you tell the difference.

governments In power. "the scoun-
drels" Only by replacing "the scoun-
drels" with nonest men can the gringo
banks hope to get their money back.
And so forth and so on.
Manufacturers Extend Credit.
But kings of finance are not the
only New York magnifcos who con-
tribute to the revolutionary cause.
Manufacturers of arms and amuni-
tions are also invited into the fold.
But they usually confine themselves to
extending credit. For example, you
may remember the busted "putsch"
led by Carlos Hevia last year. A scow
full of munitions of war put out from
Atlantic City, of all places, and was
promptly overhauled by Coast Guard
destroyer and brought back in gale
of laughter. No harm was done.
The members of the "putsch" were not
chastised, but just firmly told that
they mustn't. Those munitions Of war
had been obtained ION the cuff"
There are amusing aspects to this
"on-the-cuff" business. Though the
big shots are men Of sufficient means
to meet their bills, some Of their lieu
tenants are put to all sorts of devices
to keep up their end. I am told that
the other day one big hotelkeeper
found so much written on his cuff
that he had to throw it away. He
had supported the revolution TO the
extent of some S2,000-odd, little bill
incurred by one of the agents of the
junta. This particular individual is
not Cuban except by naturalization,
but he is one of the busiest little To-
menters you ever saw He has OBJ
tanned credit in various places on the
assurance that he Is TO be an lmpor-
tant fellow when the government is
recognized"
One night he gave sumptuous
banquet for his leader at an Italian
restaurant. There was champagne ga
lore to wash down seven-course din
ner. Everybody was happy-in fact,
you might have believed that the rev.
olution was won around that festive
board. When the ceremonies were
over there we're $40 and S. tips for
the head waiter and captains and so
forth AS the distinguished guests
were being helped into their cloaks,
and assurances of mutual esteem were
pouring out, the owner of the res
taurant came up beaming when he
saw the size of the tips that had been
handed to his walters. But how he
did unbeam when the men who had
given the dinner said with a lordly
air;
"That was fine dinner, Carlo.
Everybody is delighted. I'll see you
tomorrow" That particular tomor-
row has not vet arrived. This endear-
ing gentlemans career in New York
is reminiscent of quotation from
Macbeth: Tomorrow and tomorrow
and tomorrow"
Moved From Hotel to Hotel.
Whether as a matter of precaution
or by preference, the exiles did not
live in the same hotel. Furthermore,
some of the junta would move occa-
sionally from one hotel TO another.
Maybe they did so Just for change,
but it seems to me that If I were

Theory Is Possible
The Times investigation of the
field revealed that, because of two
colors in the surfacing of the road,
this was not only possible, but
probable.

that he should have used the flares
he carried in his plane with the
statement that these never we're
used except in emergencies and that
his landing lights were Illuminating

Lieut.. Maxwell had planned to
visit Selfridge Field, military flying
center at Mt. Clemens, Mich. where
a cousin is stationed At the De-
troit port, however, he met Dick
Knox, pilot for the Prest-O-Lite c.,
Inc, here and the two men had
luncheon together at the field.
It was 2:30 when Lieut.. Maxwell
began to warm up his engine, he
said, and Miss Mendenhall arrived
at the field about that time, fol-
lowed shortly by her father and DR..
Carmack.
1T was rougher than hell when
we got up top again, and I adjusted

Miss Mendenhall seemed happy
and interested at this point, ac-
cording to Lieut.. Maxwell, who said
she was taking notes on a small
pad, asking the names of the towns
as they slipped underneath the
plane.

were north of Lima, O." Lieut.. Max

Then propping himself up in the

confidence that he would make
safe landing.
You can see I had this thing all
figured out in my mind he declared
He pointed to a new road heading
into the port in the northeast di-
rection, and entering it at the west
boundary, approximately where the
crash took place To the south of
this the FERA men had been ex-
tending the south boundary by fill
ing-in depressed ground.
No Trick He Believed
His calculations had convinced
him, the f1ier said, that it would
be no trick at all' to land if the wind
was from the south. The wind,
however, was from the west.

we'll has suggested that Mr. Ham

spotted the point where the new
road ended in the airport.

The Times. Il realized at that time
1 had overshot the field and gave
her the gun to circle again. AS did
that I would have bet anything I
had the field in my pocket
"All of a sudden, my landing
lights showed a tree. 1 gave her
the gun to get up. Then came the
crash. There was a flare of flame,
which illuminated the dash board. y
Hit Two Trees, He Thinks
Lieut.. Maxwell believes he hit two
trees. The Times inspection of the
airport today shows that actually
