Copyright, 1924, by Harper & Brothers. (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) Whether it was that the leading 11ghts of the troupe slowly awoke to a realization of the failure of the 8how, and took swift measures to rescue the situation, or that the whole boring of the audlence was calculated for helghtening the intended sur- prise, is a matter on which we are not prepared to express an opinion. It is sufficlent to say that when the other occupants of the hall woke up and found the stars of the Front Bench all confessing the real signifi- cance of their earlier efforts by hav- Ing had their faces burnt-corked, a shout of laughter went up which bade fair to wreck the house that the mandgement did not intro- duce the surprise earlier in the eve- ning instead of taking such elaborate measures to secure one big laugh. It would have glven point to the co- incident occurrence which was tak- ing place in the city. . . . “With a modesty not habitual in | popular entertainers, however, the leaders of the troupe have emphati- cally disclaimed all kfiowledge of how the delightful surprise was worked, and even have tried to attribute the happy finspiration of the burnt cork to the visitors to the Bank of Eng- land. In their haste to be so wonder- fully modest they have almost an air of wishing to convey the impression that their efforts in the earlier part of the evening composed a serious at- tempt to reduce the air services of the country. That the St. Stephen’s troupe has some sort of right to dis- cuss euch an fmportant matter cannot be denled. But If the troupe really was trying to discuss this serious na- tional question, and really was deter- mined that the alr service of the country should be reduced, in the face of the outrage on the Bank of Eng- | land—which might readily have been prevented by an adequate air patrol— their participation in the affalr passes beyond a joke. It is no joke for the country to be deprived of a million pounds sterling while black-faced minstrels occupy seats that once were filled by statesmen, and handle mat- ters affecting the country's weal with the absurd insouclance peculiar to their kind. . . The pity is | ting in an odd question or two, and when I had finished he nodded satis- faction. “Sir Thomas Basildon is right,” said he. “We've got a long way to go be- fore we reach the end cf this busi- ness. Well, and what do you propose |to do yourself? 1s there any way I I can help?” “Yes, dad,” 1 sald, “there Is. Iwant to get a sort of roving commission with the air police. I want to be my own master, go my own way and work along my own lines, with Danny Lamont to help me. A sort of gen- eral permit to scout about in the Merlin, armed to take action if I meet the ralders—that's what I'm after Can you fix it for me?" “I'll try. The authorities are not likely to favor any privateering. but you're going to dispose of the Merlin design to the Government? “Yee” 1 returned. “And that's another thing I want you to help me in. The Air Board knows me well enough, but 1 want speed. I don’t want to be hung up in Washington for weeks until the Merlin is tested.” “The Merlin should do the trick herself—but you'd better get straight to the President,” said my father. *I can fix it for you to see him. Your reputation will stand vou in good stead there, since you're not likely to be putting up y fool idea When can you be In Washington? “Tuesday morning. T'll fix up the armament belonging to the old Merlin on one of the new machines and be fully prepared to show her Tuesday. Milllken can fly the old Merlin at the same time and take a mechanic or two with him. I don't want to part with the only armament I have. 1 might have to wait weeks for another equipment. So when the tests are over, I'll remount the guns on the old Merlin down there.” ‘I see. Then I'll write a letter per- sonally to the President right away so that he'll have it by first mail to- morrow.” He went off to carry out this Idea, while I made for the bathroom an a change of clothing. “I have mailed the letter,” said my father, when we sat down to dinner.

Sharing this feeling, we venture the hope that this last effort on the part of the Min- strel Troupe may prove laughable enough to laugh them from benches. Should this consummation be reached, we ‘or one will be apt to reconsider our opinion and regard the joke—for joke it then will be—as the only one we have ever encoun- tered that really Is worth a million British sovereigns. The other; opposition journals did not see the affair quite that way, but they all made the most of it in their own manner. It seemed to me more than likely ‘hat the English cabinet would be laughed out of office. By the time I had got through all the Sunday pipers and found that none of them had anything to add to the details Sir Thomas Basildon had given about the Paris and Berlin raids I was due to relleve Milliken. It was close on 1 o'clock, London time, and perfect flying weather. There was hardly a cloud in the sky, and below us the sea was llke a bowl, deep blue in the center and shading off to a delicate green at the sharp edge of the horizon. We had left the police machines far behind us, but we were passing over a British warship, to us merely a gray dot with a widening streak of whits behind it. Farther ahead on the sea a meries of sinister black shapes was spread out on a wide line, their wakes so definite and the black smears of smoke athwart them 8o coplous that we knew them for de- stroyers traveling at full speed. Later, when from a gray shape below us a white fleck parted, flickering in the sun, only experience told us that the ship was a plane carrier and the flickering speck one of her machines taking off. But though we must have been in sight on such a clear day, we passed unchallenged. Time went on, and these ships of war lay far be- hind us over the edge of the sea, and only now and then would we see the squat shape of a freighter, the more graceful lines of the passenger ship— these in the slow, placid pursuit of their lawful occasions. Noon overtook us after about four hours' flying, about 2 o'clock by the Greenwich time on the control board, and after that the sun Increased his lead south of us until his angle nar- rowed almost to dead ahead. We kept a strict watch for the airship unt!l after 6 by our clock, and, giving her amaszing dirigible speed of 300 kilo- meters an hour, by that time we should have overtaken her, supposing she had left Paris shortly after 4 in the morning. But the sky remained clear of aircraft until the time when we came upon American machinel with warships'in convoy, throwing a cordon round the Atlantic seaboard. By then we had made landfall with Cape Race and little more than two hours later we were hovering down into Gardiner Bay, Long Island. Ihad had a radio put.through to my father saying when we might be expected and he was there on the jetty to shake Milliken and myselt by the hand when we landed. The clock in the hall at Hazeldene was striking 6 when I sat down there for a rest and a yarn with the old man. oi 8 My father listened with his usual quiet to all I had to tell, only put- EDUCATIONAL.

He took hold of my hand and vrrung it as if I had presented him with a medal. “You're a regular good fellow Jimmy,” he said. “And, say, Jimmy— If there's any shortage in the—in the ship's chests—don't forget I've got sacks, will you?" ‘I won't forget, Dan." Nothing would content him then but that I should write him out a list of the things he would need in his kit, and when that was done he made for New York as quickly as he could to buy the stuff. The new Merlin was all ready late in the afternoon, and Milliken and T went up in her te try her for speed and for the synchronizing of the for- ward gun, which was an arrangement of our own. She answered perfectly. We had a new speedometer fixed which was numbered up to six hun- dred kilometers, and in one short burst the hand touched five-thirty. In that fact alone there was enough to make the Government experts go crazy.over her. Compared with the fastest known machine, she was a streak of lightning. I will own that when I stepped ashore after the tests, I was almost drunk with excitement, and Milliken wag little better. 1 was all impa- tience to hear the result of my fa- ther's letter to the President and [ got through to the old man on the phone. “I was on the point of ringing you up, son,” he said, “but you've saved me the trouble. The President has this minute left off speaking to me. He says he'll be ready to see you at 11 o'clock tomorrow. And I promised him you'd be on the doorstep of the White House right on time.” “Fine, dad.” “I won’t tell you what he says to your proposition. but he was mighty fiattering to your old dad.

At half-past nine next morning the original Merlin took off with Milli- ken and two mechanics, and a minute or two later the new machine with myself and another couple of men streaked after them, headed for Washington. We took it easy, and landed in the seaplane basin of the Fotomac just before half-past ten. Right at eleven I was standing on the doorstep of the White House, never so nervous in my life. I had stepped In and was giving my card to a servant, when a white-haired |little sturdy man came walking swiftly down the passage to shake me warmly -by the hand. It was the President. “You'll be young James Boon,” said he, and opened his watch, “Right on time. Glad to see you. Come along to my workroom and tell me all about this wonderful machine of yours, and what's this free-lance policeman no- tion you have. He led me into a little room, fur- nished half as an offce and half as a library. (Continued In Tomorrow's Stard N. L. SANS Everrthing in Real Estate,'” 1418 Eye St. N.\W.
