There is a 'Revolution waging here
and as Caracas is the capital of the
country and has the Palace, therefore,
it saw the worst, This family as you
may know is one of the oldest families
in Caracas and as the house is very
large all the marrie'cl sons and .daugh-
ters, brought their families here for
safety, which made us 28 in'all, but it
proved to be far froth safe, so they
tried to evacuate the house but this
was too dangerous as the street was
whizzing with bullets and full of men
with guns and knives,.
At any rate the purpose 'has been
accomplished and the government
overthrown. The President and all his
ministers are in jail.and the Democrat-
ic party has taken over so now every-
one is hoping-for great things to come.
Considering Venezuela's history in the
Past with a cruel tyranny during 27
years ,ending in 1935, with the death
Of "Gomez the Terrible", it has had
more than its share of bad government
and wholesale looting of the National
Treasury.
Hank offered his services in the Red
Cross and also donated blood for which
they are still sending out appeals by
radio. All the hospitals are full of
wounded and the dead are many.
The fireworks started at 2.30 p.m.,
Thursday afternoon at the Armourie's
which is only one block away. The
re-#olt was extremely well-engineered
and went off like clockwork without
arousing suspicions or without the us-
ual traitors, which cannot always be
avoided in an undertaking so great as
a national revolution.
The shooting continued all Thurs-
day night and Friday morning a .squad-
ron of bomber planes was sent from
Maracay. One bomb destroyed (acci-
dentally) the drug store at the corner
and Secundino the house boy brought,
a,,large piece of it home to me as a
Souvenir. The - other bombs were
dropped more accurately and finally
succeeded in forcing the, armouries to
surrender. This left three other small-
er armouries in Caracas to deal with
but by this time the National Guard
and the Police Force were causing
considerable opposition so radio ap-
peals were broadcast to these two or-
ganizations to lay down their arms by
