obviously" Mr.. Castles said,
there Is nothing that dealers can
do in a material way for Mr..
Sloan. But his interest in cancer
research offered a marvellous op-
portunity for us to do honor to
him and to take part in this great
undertaking to which he has
dedicated so much of himself, his
fortune and his genius for organ
ization."
Mr.. Castles said the dealers
fund is growing. The sum will be
a separate entity within the $16.-
100000 Alfred P. Sloan Founda-
ton, and grants will be made from
it's income. Use of the new fund
will not be restricted to support

Deep in the Heart Of Texas
A Series on the Lone-Stor State
BY B. B. GAUMER

Letters of travel, relating COM
mon-place experiences and OBJ
servations, are of great interest
to many readers, not only to those
who have travelled much but to
those who have travelled little.
While | have returned home from
my vacation, these articles will
continue for a few issues. Much
Of the contents was written in
Brownsville and San Antonio,
Texas, but some of it since my
return to Marysville.
There is an interesting phase
of Texas history that is all wrong,
as taught in our schools, and that
is the early plans to colonize
Texas by Americans. Texas was
'no-man's land at the beginning
of the last century. Both French
and Spanish had attempted to es-
tablish settlements without sue
cess. At the time there were few
white people in Texas, and no
government.
Aaron Burr evolved the plan
of colonizing Texas with a view
of doing exactly what Gen. Sam
Houston, Moses and Stephen Aus
tin did just a few years later.
With this idea in view Burr
bought 100000 acres of land
down there and came to Blenner-
hassett Island in the Ohio river,
south of Ohio, to further his plans.
Aaron Burr was the one man
Thomas Jefferson hated. Running
as candidate for vice president

eraliSts Schemed to elect Burr
president instead of Jefferson and
it appears that Burr was willing
enough The matter was FINALLY
settled in the house of representa-
tiveS.
When Jefferson learned of the
plans Burr was making to colon
ike Texas, he had him arrested
for treason. At the trial at Rich
mond, Va, under John Marshall,
the court found that there was
not a particle of evidence that
Burr had been guilty of any act
of treason. 1t was the one ex-
ample of spite that appears in the
life of Jefferson.
Andrew Jackson, sound and
right as he always was, sympath-
ised with Burr in this matter,
although he was a supporter of
jefferson otherwise, and you may
be sure that Jackson gave all the
support he could to the later eff
forts to colonize Texas. This
little bit of history is given be-
cause George Sokolsky, in his
column, recently rehashed the
history of the affair as it is us
ually given in textbooks, giving
as his authority for his smear at
tack on Burr and Jackson a no
torious Boston Tory historian.
Blennerhassett Island, instead of
being referred to as a place of in
fanny, should be recognized as a
shrine of patriotic ambition. La
ter, Sokolsky, usually a sound
writer, attempted to crawfish on
some of the statements he had
made but he didn't go far e.
nough.
