 Under Fire in Riots
 In between wars, being under fire is nothing new to Rousseau. The night of February 6, 1884, saw the climax of the Stavisky rioting. A mob of several thousand demon- strators filled the Place de la Con- corde, trying to attack the Cham Der of Deputies, across the Seine. A barricade of police held the bridge. Ray was between the lines when the fusillades broke out that caused the death of g persons.
 A few nights later, Communist demonstrators were waging hand to-hand street battle with the po- lice around the Care de 1'Est. Again the firing started. That time. Rousseau and the other news-cam- eramen hid behind a stone parapet in front of the station. The spat- tering of bullets is still recorded on that parapet.

the famous victory parade of July IA, 1919, when Marshal Foch marched the Allied troops General Pershing commanding the American contingent) down the Champs Elysees.
 Rays French blood, the wander lust, and the appeal of some war time buddies who were starting photographic venture in Paris, soon pulled Ray back to France. He re- turned here in March, 1920, and has been in Europe ever since ex- cept once when he went home on 8 honeymoon, and another time when he sailed as camerannan representing Jthe whole American press, aboard the U. s. s. Memphis bearing modest young man named Charles Augustus Lindbergh back to American shores after a certain historic flight in May, 1927.
 Is Master Photographer
 Rousseau has been living in the Paris suburb of Colombes, near enough to town to be on the job at the Paris Bureau of NEA Ser vice in IS minutes, far enough out to give his wife and two children the benefit of country air.
 But there's another reason why Ray chose the suburbs-he has room there for workshop. Ad- mittedly the best technician among Paris photographers, his little shop is like a miniature factory. He has the real scientists love of his profession, and, if 1t were not for his wife's watchful eye, most of his wages would certainly go in photographic gadgets. As it is, his several cameras are wonderful and fearful to behold. He is famous in Paris for having every possible con- triavnce on them except an electric refrigerator, an exhaust muffler, and skid-chains.
