In thi- days lit-fon- Muttlt-lt a rer- lain JTIIOOI of’ French junior offlc- ers strongly urged the creation of’ numerous mcchanzled divisions and the development of the tactics of’ ntobil-e warfare. Bria. Gen. Charles rte Gatulle. who was appointed by former Pretmer Paul Reyriaud as Under-Secretary of State for War, foresaw the tactics of l-hls watxsuz- [rested the creation of eleven mech- anized divisions, and was stipport- ed by Reynaud, then a member 0t the Chamber of Deputies. But they were voices crying In the wilderness. On April I7, 1930, a re- port headed "Stibject: Mechanized Forces" was submit-ted t-o the War Department of the United States. The first paragraph stated: "It Is recommended that. sfx Tank Dzvts- Ions be included In the Army of the United States." The organiza- tion of’ the proposed divisions was outlined In detail. Three years be- fore Hitler came to power in Ger- many an American Army officer suggested that. the tank divisions which he proposed should be coni- posed of 486 combat tanks, an organization very similar to that. ultimately achieved by the now famous German Panzer divisions. The American officer was Mater Geri. J. K. Parsons, now in cani- mancl of the Third Corps Area at. Baltimore, then a. colonel In charge of’ the fzcld development or our experimental mccliatiizsd forc- es. His report of I930 was written in collaboration with the ablrst tank officers then in the arms‘.

came to be known later. the 1-0115’ Beach.

O _O I O

Al both the militia itiusler and the first. fair certain of Bay For- tune's leading residents were not. present. A week or two before 111° fair at Supreme Court In George- town they 11nd been convlcted 011 the serious charges of rlot. and assault on one of I-Ier Majesty?» D9169 officers. The trouble had arisen. as much did arise then and later. from friction caused by the LP-nd- Iord system of that; day. The own- er of Lot; 43 In I840 was Flora. Townshend. rellct of tthe late Hen. William TOWIISIIBIIG, the Islands first; custom officer, and for many years a. member of’ the Executive council. Widow Townshend had In- herited Lot. 43 from her late hus- band who had some years previous- l_v aqulred It by sheriff's deed at a fax sale. The settlers, most of whom had long term leases for 999 years. paid yearly rent to Mrs. Townshetid. If they, because of crop failure, or of unwillingness t.o pay, or any other good or bad rea- son, did not pay their rents at, the time and place specified In their leases they were liable to have their effects seized upon 11v a court: or- der and sold to pay the rent, and themselves liable to ejection 1T0!“ the premises.

I O I

Some such action took place In January of 1840 when Peter Mac- Allum. sheriff, at the stilt; of Flora Townshend levied on the cattle of James Douglas to recover certain monies due her. It: Is too far away In time to judge u to where Justice lay In this matter. but; other tenants on the Lot. doubtless thought that Douglas was not zet- ting a square deal. 'I‘l-te_v con- spired among themselves how to deal with the matter. xvitti the re- sult. that. on sale dnv the auctioneer found no one would bid above man shilling six pence t30c> for cows worth eight pounds ($32001. Tots prc-ceedure Is Identical with that used at Mortgage sales in many middle ivcz-iterti slates in the 193l- 33 depression.

However the Fbrltine men _ of 1840 were not just FﬂllSflCfl \"l?l1 bidding low prices on the live

stock, they assaulted the sheriff wit-It frozen duntz. snow balls. and. etc. Thcy mav have had consid- erable provocation but il. was a mistake. The law of 1840 had a 1on5; arm and a strong memory for such offences acaltist. the Peace. On'i_v elqht davs before the Fair, on July 21st 1840 the Sti- prrme Court found tillllleS lfoxvlett. and William Blllflifll guilty.’ of riot and fined tltetn twenty tiounds each and four months in prison. Jaltn Hewlett. was found guilty of riot and assault and fiiierl 7.\\'(‘l‘ll-'.' pounds and six tnontlis in jail. John Coffin found trulltv of riot and assault. was sentenced to ten itirrtillts in prison, and John Mc- Kir- 0n the same charge was given four months Imprisonment.
