...exiled to Jamaica. Professor N. Andrew N. Cleven of the University of Pittsburgh has written: "We may safely assign to Simon Bolivar a foremost place among the great of the world." The world last week honored Bolivar as follows: U. S.: President Hoover sent a message, Secretary of State Stimson laid a wreath at the Pan American Union building in Washington.

Correspondents understood that Airman Hoover...
