They pointed to a crayon map on which they said the Ukraine had been incorrectly drawn-a charge hotly denied in New Haven next day by the drawer, Moppet Walter Matwych whose parents are Ukrainian.

They built an aerodrome, a hotel, planned an elaborate jamboree like the Abyssinian coronation at Addis Ababa which should put Mandoa on the map.
