THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE NINE Autograph Hobby o Brings Clergyman ® Imposing By JEAN MEEGAN New York--(AP)--Daily the post- man deposits some of the most im- pressive mail in the world at a rose-covered door in Brooklyn. Rev. Cornelius Greenway receives letters from kings, generals, Nobel prize winners, cabinet members, in- dustrialists, literary lions and all manner of great folk. The Universalist clergyman has portraits signed by the last three popes, the last five presidents, every dictator (except Stalin) since 1919, Chief Twu Gun White Calf, whose face is on the buffalo nickel, and a wedding picture of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor signed by every. body present. He values his auto- graph collection at $85,000. Mr. Greenway stalks his prospects with 23-cent registered letters irom the moment they are important enoughy to be in his collection. It took 11 years before he brought Henry Ford and Albert Einstein to y. Just this summer, Einstein wrote him the following in longhand: '"The most beautiful thing we can witness is the mysterious. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed." Buch an item in the hand of the relativity theorist makes an auto- graph hunter drool. Greenway also has a Herbert Hoover longhand rarity. The ex-president wrote out a 1200-word speech he made in Fort Wayne, Ind. in 1932 for the minister's collection. That was to reciprocate for a hobby favor Green- way did for him, Greenway has such divergent items as the original manuscript of Edwin Markham's "Thé Man With The Hoe" and the picture of Qen- Former Duchess Of Bedford Back On Atlantic Run Montreal -- France, 20,000-ton Canadian Pa- cific passenger liner which joined her sistership, Empress of Canada, in a UK.-Canada shuttle service when she sailed from Liverpool, September 1, for Quebec city and Montreal, completed her trials off Tail O' the Bank, Scotland, last week and was officially accepted for service by Captain R. N. Stuart, general manager of Canadian Bteamships at Liverpool. The Empress of According to cable advice re- ceived from England, the big liner completed her two-day anchoring, compass, speed and--endurance trials satisfactorily and is now at Liverpool to ready herself for her maiden voyage as $n Empress, . scheduled to begin on Wednesday. Completion of 'a 17-month recon- version job earlier than expected made it possible for the vessel to make an extra complete round trip between Canada and the UK. Her first voyage was originally scheduled for September 23, sailing from Liverpool. When she sails up the St. Law- rence to Montreal after calling at Quebec city, completing her maiden voyage from Liverpool, the new Empress, glistening in her coat of white, will have .as her master Captain H. H. Davies, veteran of service in 22 Canadian Pacific ves- sels during and between .two world wars. Captain: Davies sailed on the original Empress of France, one of the most luxurious liners afloat in her hey-day during the twenties, and also commanded the present Empress of France for a period when she was still trooping in war service as Duchess of Bed- ford. J Holder of an enviable war rec- ord, the Empress of. France has one Nazi U-Boat to her credit, sunk by gun-fire at a range of only 100 é yards, and a second put to flight Returns eral MacArthur 'returning to the Philippines bearing in MacArthur's own hand the famous "I have re- turned" statement. It took a year and a half for him to get the picture of the Japanese surrender aboard the battleship Missouri with the signatures of MacArthur, Sir Arthur E. Percival and Gen. Johathan Wainwright. The Duchess of Windsor was un- responsive until Greenway sent her some laudatory stories from United States papers about her marriage to Edward VIII. There are very few signed portraits of Edward VIII during his short reign, but Green- way has one. His collection of signed portraits of the British Royal Fam- ily, going back to Victoria, is one of the finest in existence. Although Hitler was one of the world's most frequently photo- graphed men in the 1930s Greenway had a hard time getting the Fueh- rer's signature in a portrait. "I wrote many times for it," the minister said. "One day in 1933 Gustave Benzenberg, chancellor of the German consulate in New York came to see me. He said he was sent by Hitler to check on my claim that I had autographed pictures of all Europe's other -rulers, Then he showed me a signed picture post- card of Hitler which he said he had been directed to give me if what I said was true." A sporty looking eight-by-10° pic- ture of Mussolini as a mountain fighter disturbed the German's feel- ing of fitness. Benzenberg got Hitler to send his favorite portrait. There are 42 volumes in his col- lection of 2,500 pictures and 3,000 manuscripts, but not one actor or athlete. Only microfilms of Green- way's treasures are kept at home. The originals are in bank vaults. only a few hours later. She steam- ed more than 41300 miles as a troop ship and carried almost 180,000 passengers during the con- flict. Early in 1942, she stayed un- til the last moment in Singapore loading on refugees and then bare- ly escaped destruction at the hands of Japanec: suicide planes. She took tL as a trooper in the North African and Sicilian landings, and was in the thick of the inferno that accompanied the landing at Salerno. A true sistership of the Empress of Canada, which she will be join- ing in a UK.-Canada shuttle service, the Empress of France is 20,000 tons gross, has a length of 601 feet and a beam of 75 feet. Her white hull and superstructure will be set off by a green "riband" from stem to stern, and her buff funnels, both with the familiar red and white checkered Canadian Pacific House flag emblazoned on either side, Refitted by Fairfield Shipbuild- ing and Engineering Company, at Glasgow, Scotland, she will carry 441 first class and 259 tourist pas- sengers between Liverpool and Quebec city and Montreal during summer, with Halifax and- Saint John, N.B, being her Canadian terminals in winter, Driven by two sets of steam tur- bines, driving twin screws, the Em- press of France ig expected to | make a speed of 18 knots, enabling | the ship to maintain her three- week round trip schedule, NO HOOKS | Flin Flon, Man.
