When my friend Theal goes back home to Abbsville, he will have to be placed abosard the bus, and his ticket pinned to his ccoat. But out here, in a boundless land he never saw before he moves as confidently as a New Yorker walk‘ng from 42nd to 43rd St. I don‘t know a poule d‘eau from a roseau, a das gris from a bateau, and it is all highly embarrasing. A poule d‘eau is a coot. A dos gris is a blueâ€" billed duck. A roseau is a reed, and a bateau is a flatbottomed boat. I am worth less than $60 a month on talent, and all I can do real good is d ‘sembowel a duck. But I have invited my Cajun friends to visit me in MY marshes, the limitâ€" less prairies of New York. Before I pass final judgement cn my stupidity, I am anxious to see how they make cut in the subwavy. I may not be able to call a but I am death on Eighâ€"flying headwaiters, andâ€" once â€"I even int midated cab driver. These are skil‘s, tos. Me ovr my own baycus, maybe I am pretty gsod .Cajun, after ull. â€" Sure me. I can eat an oyvster, and I can even open cne, now, without cutting off my hand, but I cannsot look at a stretch <f water and say positively that there is a bed of oysters in it. I can‘t squint at a section of marsh and anâ€" nounce author.tatively that it is eatâ€" en out by the rats, hence worthless. I cannot make orange wine, or whittle a decent pushpole for the pirogue. I can‘t even cook. In the past few years I have girdled the glcbe a few times, and I have more friends in Africa than in New York. But I carnot walk the "prairie," here, even in hip boots, The Prarie is the vast oozy marshland, where the rats and the ducks @well. I sink to my neck and struzgle helplesly, while M. Bibi Humblue, aged 18, strides along as if on a sidewalk. When I get hopeâ€" lessly mired, I bleat pathetically, like the lost gcose lcok‘ng for its mama, and Bibi or Theal come and derrick me out. "I will make a noise like his mama," says Ted, emitting a dulcet yodel. The lonesome goose dropued his flaps and came down in a power dive. You eculd have killed him w.th the broom. Lat lands I cannot, f.r instance, manage a pirogue without drowning myself. A pirogue is a soapdish of a boat which ‘s chcpped from a single section ¢f icg, pointed at b_th ends, and can be poled in an inch of waer. It is balâ€" ansed like the mechanism of a watch. end will caps ze if you shave too closely .n one side of your face. I do mn.t know how to trap a muskâ€" rat. I cannot talk to the ducks, or call a gocse down out of the h‘igh sky. Yet I have seen Ted O‘Neil, a biologist who lives in the wo;ids, stretch his neck and give a yowp that fétched a goose practically into the blind, from a thousand feet,. All I could see is a speck up there in the blue, but Ted ident.fied it as a vourg gcose who was lost from his mama. the m nds ol aqespous. Is there any limit, so far as the "Red Dean" is concerned, to the freeâ€" dom he is willing to lose before he would want to offer resistence to the whims of these would be conquerors of the wor‘d. We might have goneâ€"to war if, Italy had been invaded by Russian forces at the time of the last Italian election. Would the "Red Dean‘"‘ have opposed it? Would he be willing for Bussia to cross the Rhine, to invade Switzerland or France? If the armies of despotism stood on the opposite side of the English Channel and attempted to cross would the "Red Dean" tell us that Comâ€" munism was a Christâ€"like thing and these people were trying to conquer Me, I am a Cajun, sure, me. But I would starve to death, me, if 1 had to be a seif suflf clent dwelléer among the bavous and marshlands cf Louilsâ€" lana. You see I don‘t know how to do most of the things that these hunâ€" ters and trapptrs consider necessary to cxistence., My sho.ting partner, a gqu.et Cajun natned Purvis Theal, could not possibly find me worth $60 a month in a t:rapping camp. I can shco. all right, but shoct ng and walkâ€" ing are skills acquired simuitaneously d.wn here. No sign figance attaches t> ether. I can wash dishes. I can pluck a duck, and am r>ally superbly deft at iviscerating a duck wtih one wrench in the innards. "You gut a duck bien, you," says M. Theal. "Y.:.u gut a duck sgood as anybody I know. But, Robair, not enougsh. Nsed more things to do." L 9 ie P Eue nA We have had a distinguished visitor among us The Very Reverend Dr. Hewlctt Johnson, Dean of Canterbury. He goes normally under the title of the "Red Dean." He fteels that Comâ€" munism, as they have it in Russia, is a lovely thing and that earth might be nearer Heaven if only other lands had a touch of it. I do not believe that the pecple of Russ‘ia want war, They don‘t. Neither do the pesple of Carada, the United States, Great Britain, nor any of the other demccracies of the wor.d. They have an absolute horror of war, its bloody sacrifices, the prodigal waste <f it But Russ‘ia is a despotism. If we have a war it will come from deâ€" spotism, not communism. Nineâ€"tenths of the world‘s war had their genesis in . It is a hbhealthy thing for the soul of a cityâ€"dwelier occasionally to return to the deep sticks, if only to redisâ€" cover his own practical stupidity.

BIG ISLAND the British Channel isâ€" If the armies of despotism stood on the opposite side of the English Channel and attempted to cross would Ithe "Red Dean" tell us that Comâ€" munism was a Christâ€"like thing and these people were trying to conquer the Island Kingdom for the good of its inhabitants. Would he proclaim that this was the coming of the new era, the supreme hope of man? Strange mortal, this "Red Dean"! He is kindly, generous, gullible and,‘ because of his abumidant faith, able to see good in evetything â€" _ even in despotism, as they have it in Mosecw. "Though all the winds of dcoctrine were let loose to play upon the earth, so Truth be in the field, we do inglorâ€" icusly, by licensing and prohibiting to misdoubt her strength. Let her and Falsehood grapple: who ever knew Truth put to the worse in a free and open enccunter?" I cannot believe that all the great papers of the world would beliberateâ€" ly misrepresent Russia. Editors arg sometimes mistaken, reporters may misunderstand, but if the bars were we woull know the truth about Russia. Only despotism can keep out the truth â€" in time even it must fail. Milton put it this way: The simole fact is that the world does not know what goes on in Rusâ€" sia â€" nor can the average Russian understand the differences between democracy and despotism. Alas, he has never krown freedom. He tells us that in Russia he has the greatest possible freedom. He is allowed to see anything he wants to see but I imagine that rather careful guides shelter him on his little trips and that he doesn‘t see the things which free men would if they had the opportunity to travel freely in Russia. Let us assume that all the "Red Dean‘ says is true and that Russia is a comfortable country to live in and work in and that geople can be happy there, in heaven‘s name why dcoesn‘t Russia lift the curtain and let others see the way men live under Comâ€" munism. Then why â€" unless the Rusâ€" sian rulers see danger in it, are Rusâ€" sian women not permitted to leave Russia to join the English husbands they married during the war? _‘Will anycne deny that Yugoslavia, R mania, Albania are tryving to estabâ€" lish a gcvernment _ in Greece?

J. Deachman "The present rulers of Russia are working with demonic energy to enâ€" sure the triumph in Russia of the very civ.lization that they are denouncing in the world at large. No doubt they dream of creating a new society which will be Ameritan in equipment but Russian in soul â€" though this is a strange dream to be dreamed by statesmen for whom a materialist inâ€" terpretation of history is an article of faith!
