Many of the Eastern artists, writers, chatterers and pollywogs of culture who inhabit Santa Fe think Mr. Nusbaum is a Jew.

Nearly all of the Rajas and Maharajas maintain sumptuous residences in New Delhi which they inhabit only when the Chamber meets. Nearly all ride Rolls-Royces (the Maharaja of Patiala has 36 Rolls-Royces). Last week from the flagstaffs of these pampered potentates fluttered the crimson & gold of Bikaner, the blue, white & yellow of Bahawalpur, the scarlet of Patiala...
