palace in India. So, with philosophy not
untinged with cynicism, he appointed the
beardless stripping Finance Minister and,
finally, head of his Council of Ministers and
Wazir. Thereupon he boarded his yacht and
set sail for India to have good time, leaving
the new Wazir to hold the bag.
Thus Captain Bertram Thomas, ten years
before a research student at Trinity College,
Cambridge, became de facto ruler of an inde-
pendent Oriental state. 1t was the first time in
history that such thing had happened. What
was more amazing, he got away with it. The
state of Muscat and Oman prospered. Peace
and order were maintained as never before.
"Howthe deuce did you doit?" asked him.
"Oh, one gets along, " he replied in his ultra
English accents. "One picks the wisest and
most knowledgeable chaps for the important
jobs, and relies upon them."
And suspect it won't be long before we
have more news of the fashion in which
Bertram Thomas "gets along" A couple of
months ago he landed in China, his first re-
turn to the continent of Asia since his great

achievement. Ostensibly he was just going
around the world with the lady he recently
married. Only short time before, he had
come to America to deliver this year 8 course
of the famous Lowell lectures at Harvard
University - an honor reserved for the top
notchers in their respective domains.
When he left New York for the Pacific
Coast to sail for the Orient, he would not
admit that he was ON anything but a pleasure
trip. But soon after he had landed, reports
began drifting back from Tokyo, Peking and
Hongkong that he was lectwing at all univer-
sites en- route.
BY the time you read these lines he may be
in India. 1t is a fair conjecture that the Indian
government will welcome him with open arms.
The British Raj never forgets good man.
and there is every indication that it will seize
the opportunity to use the extraordinary
abilities of Bertram Thomas either as admin
istrator or explorer or both - once more.
Many invaluable explorations have been con-
Quoted under the auspices of the Government
of India.

"But look herer' he exclaimed. I'VE can't
have this! It murder!'
The local Shaikhs assured him that if he
had the boy executed according to the law of
the Unbelievers. or even imprisoned. his court
would be boycotted. He consulted his nearest
senior, who said to him fatty:
Don't be a fool You aren't a Justice of the
Peace in Somerset now. If you apply the letter
of the law, your usefulness in this land is at
an end"
At the same time, the boyish English magis-
trate had to save his own face. He cut the
knot by sentencing the seventeen-year- old
n1atricide to six months political arrest"
which confined the prisoner to small area
within the town. The lad turned out to be an
excellent gardener and served out his six
months growing flowers around the Official
Residence.
Throughout Muscat and Oman, Bertram
Thomas won the increasing respect Of Elder
Statesmen, of well-to-do merchants, of
bearded Shaikhs and of the poorest tribesmen.

the porter or to the potentate. He spoke with
the firm voice of accustomed authority but
also with the voice of immemorial Oriental
courtesy.
So the Sultan, who had sense of humor,
advised his advisers to hold their horses and
watch the young Englishman. They watched
and he watched. He learned that the strip
ling had had six years experience as
Political Officer in Mesopotamia and Trans
jordan. He had administered wide districts -
the only Englishman in thousands of square
miles governing wild Arab tribes with none
but native police, whom he had recruited and
trained himself, to uphold his authority.
Muscat discovered, further, that the young
Financial Adviser was man with keen
sympathy and admiration for the Arabs,
student avid of learning.
Now His Highness Sir Saiyid -Taimn bin
Faisal bin Turki bin Sa id, K.CLC., C.SI.,
Sultan of Muscat and Oman. is a travelled and
cultivated Mahometan. Also, he has never

any information from. But here's
an excellent illustration of his
sagacity. While he was ruler of
Oman, a certain community was
being overrun by thieves. He
tried every means of bringing
them to book "a tough prop
osition in a country where you
can buy a murder aIbi for the
price of a drink. So he took the
principal thief whom he
couldn't convict and made
him chief of police! There was
no more crime in that town!
Surely, there's a touch worthy
of Balzac.
But one of the experiences
that he tells best concerns his
administration in the Muntafiq,
the wild marshland in the heart
of the country between the Tigris
and the Euphrates. Three Tur-
kish governors had been assas-
sinated there. For ten years
prior to the war the Sublime
Porte of Constantinople had
given up all pretense Of ruling it.
Could there be any people more
remote from the peaceful, law
abiding peasantry of Somerset,
where Bertram Thomas was
born, than those Arabs of
southern Mesopotamia?
A seventeen-year old lad came
before Thomas. charged with the
murder of his mother. He made
no bones about it. On the con-
trary, he declared he had done
the only possible thing COM
patible with his honor. And,
according to the tenets Of his
tribe, so he had. His father had
been dead several years, and his
mother was about to have an
other baby.
II loved my mother, Sahib,"
he said: but what else could I
do? My face was blackened."
With his name 80 tarnished
his friends would ostracize him.
He could not sit around in the
local naadhJ cafe - and drink
coffee with his equals. So, dearly
as he loved his mother, he
stabbed her in the breast while
she was asleep.
Political Officer Thomas
listened with the sympathy he
had acquired for these strange
people. Then his English training
asserted itself.

VALLEE WILL PLAY
FOR HOTELS PARTY
Shoreham, Observing Fifth Birth.
day Tuesday, Will Stage
Special Program.

Rudy Vallee, five hours late for the
baptismal ceremonies of the Shore
ham Hotel when bad weather grounded
his orchestras airplane back in 1880,
is returning to play at the hotels
fifth birthday party next Tuesday
evening.
The hotel will celebrate Fifth Ami
versary night with gala dinner and
supper party, coincident with the re-
opening of the ball room for the Fall
and Winter.
Since the hotel opened that rainy
day. October l, 1880, it has become
famous as headquarters for social
and diplomatic gatherings. for i'm
portant governmental conferences and
as the residence of many of the Ma
TONS leading statesmen. 1t has been
the temporary home for visitors from
every State of the Union. and from
practically every country in the world.
When Rudy Vallee played for the
hotels opening ball five years ago.
his airplane was delayed by bad
weather and he was five hours late.
The assembled guests, to whom
Amelia Earhart, famous aviatrix, ex-
planned the unavoidable delay, waited
until his arrival, and then danced on
into daybreak.
