This was some-, what effective but still the streets were- dangerous as many government, snip- ers were in evidence, There wer, machine guns set up on our corner and, trained on one of the homes near us containing a government family. This afternoon sometime all the- states of Venezuela were- in submission and a provisional government has been. set up in Mirafious Palace Isere await- ing general elections the first of year. As I write this letter now, occasional: shots can be heard in the distance. Its many of the suburbs and newer urban. izations there is considerable lootii. going on as the peons are taking this- opportunity to do a little private dam- age on the side from what they can get out of it personally; and if you hate never seen one of those boys brandish-. ing a "machete" . .1 At least we are back to normal Hy- „ ing so to speak Today we were! able to resume the use of the telephone- and electricity and also to put the- mattresses back on the b'eds as temp-• orary shelters were made for the child- ren, "who were practically in hysterics- as you can imagine. Just a few weeks ago we were sympathizing with Arg- entina., but I guess the best thing to dig' in any Latin America country is just to relax and expect anything as far as politics is concerned.. With the grow- ing prevalence of Communism here, things might prove even more difficult_ than they have in the past as right to- night the CommunistS are responsible for what shooting is going On at this. moment, Their party was only legal- ized two months ago by the govern-, ment here and they had such hig.h hop es for themselves but since the oven; throw of their erstwhile benefactor the future looks rather grim as far as, their platform is concerned. I hope things- are quieter in Wing- ham than they have been in our neck of 'the woods. At least this will give you some idea what has been going on (that is if it isn't censured but as the:: new party calls themselYes "Aecion, Democratica" there is no reason why. censorship should be necessary now ()r - at any other tinsel) Am looking for a letter soon from home but even the Post Office .•has been captured so . . .I guess I shall just have to wait. Hank sends his best. He insisted' that I send a cable home before now until I reminded him the telephone was out of order and',the streets were full , of bullets . . . at which he changed his mind. He has been in the Red Cross since yesterday. Will write if there are any forth developments. Until then... Love to all, Fran. and Hank. A really clever trick is part of this year's fashion magic. It is the separ- ate peplum, shown in this sketch on an otherwise simple brown wool dress. The peplum is of brown broadtail and has slit hip pockets. It is topped by a biege leather belt studded with gilt nailheads, The peplum is wearable with the, slit opening at back or in front. J. J.

(Continued from page one) 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 * 4. * TAKE A TIP Preparations for a fruit cake: 1.
