Novelist Writes of
Hurricanes in East

over Washington. D. C.
Others killed hundreds in
New York and even Canada.
But these storms were dis
counted-this time as freak
occurrences.
Today, however, the rec
ordS have been combed care
fully for data on hurricanes.
and Mrs. Douglas points out
that they are now known to
be a normal, recurrent diSas-
ter over the whole Of the
American East Coast.
Mrs. Douglas also points
out that a great deal can be
done to mitigate the inevi-
table future damage and ease
human suffering-but that
amazingly little has been
done. It's a problem for Con-
greSS, disaster organizations
like the Red Cross, insurance
companies and, of course,
taxpayers.
Hers is a fascinating, thor
ough book. 1t would do well
for everyone concerned with
hurricanes to read it-and
that includes all of us.

BY James LAYER. CHough-

Queen Victorias death In
1901 marked the end of an
era. The outbreak of World
War I marked the end of
another era, much shorter, an
era of change rather than
stability, an introduction to
our own century even more
then a closing phase of the
last. During this decade and
a half, you and I, many of us,
like LAYER, came in; and he
goes over it once lightly, as
he says - though not so
lightly in fact.
1t was surfaces that in
terested him, and this was
particularly the time for
them:
People went without COM
forts like central heating and
indoor plumbing. There were
the often extreme fashions of
Bakst, Worth and Poiret;
there were the London sea-
son, the German-Bath sea-
son, the South-of France
season, the country-ho
season; bicycles gave way to
motor cars which, a doctor
told a worried public. were
probably good for the gen.
eral health; the airplane APP
peared, though Bleriot'S
Channel flight, a diariSt sup

a society in which whole
families living in abySmal
squalor froze or starved. Isa-
bel Pankhurst was arrested

Hurricanes have been

low explorers, traders and
pirates, soon learned to regu-

But the rest of the world
discounted the big blows as
something only for the trop-

Then just a few score years
ago people began to live in
Florida in large numbers and
it was discovered that tropi-

began calling them Florida

subplot, involving Chicks
brother-in-law, a man Of
two identities. Writing Of
him Mr.. De Vries is tediously
clever, and the conversations
between the brotherS-in-law
slow down the descent Of
Chick to dreaded perdition
and his happy return to con-
formity.

How to Halt
Fear Of Flying
A SKY OF MY OWN. 3,

A SKY OF MY OWN. BY
Molly Bernheim. Rine-
hart; $685.
Here is a simply told story
that won't put as many
flledglingS into the air as,
say, the Wright brothers.
But if Mrs. Bernheim's
warm account of her answer
to the challenge of flight
doesn't stir the f1edglings to
their very pinfeatherS, it will
be a distinct surprise.
Mrs. Bernheim, now a
grandmother as we'll as a
flight instructor with 5000
hours, was horror struck
when her husband came
home one day II years ago
and calmly announced he
had purchased an airplane.
Her fear for his safety
ebbed away. Then she fought
her own fear and won. How
she did it is an inspiration
to young and old who would
like to fly IF I weren't
afraid"

The Blessing Men" taught
the natives of Nuevo Mexico
to abandon old ways and for
their many gods substituted
worship Of the lonesome, suf-
fering Goldman. They did
not allow their mission of
salvation to challenge the
rules and policies of the mill
tary ard governmental serv-
ants of their Catholic majes-
ties in Spain. The conquer
ors Of the New World were
not lovers Of the land, in fact
they held the lives OF the
people" Of the province as
less than the dust in value.
The grinding yoke Of slavery,
diluted with the questionable
benefits of interpreting and
a half-culture unwelcome and
misunderstood, soon brought
the Indians to revolt in 1880
under the whiplaSh of their
old religious leader Pope.
How the SpaniardS recoiled
from their northern penetra-
ton Of the province, from
Taos, Santa Flora, Santa Fe,
Santo Domingo and other
towns is told in this episode
character study Of those in
volved in the revolt on both
sides. With the uprising of
the people" and their I'M
natural alliance with their
traditional enemies, the
Apaches, the hot-blooded
Spaniards retreated steadily
along the reaches of the Rio
del Norte to the present site
Of Ell Paso.
An amazingly short period
Is covered in this movie
worthy novel. AS a result 1t
has great dramatic interest.
1t is earthly and realistic,
faithfully describing the low
estate of many with which it
deals. Few more dramatic
incidents could be pictured in
a novel than the one in which
the Indians crucified a Bless
ing Man who forgave them
as completely as the Naza-
rene forgave, his prosecutors
and eXecutioners.
