WILL ROGERS SAYS:
Altoona Tribune, 2 Dec 1931


ABOARD S. S. EMPRESS OF RUSSIA, Dec. 1.-
This ocean is just as innocent looking today just like it hadn't done a thing. We have followed the Great circle route and swung away up north. If we had gone ashore I would have been telling my Republican jokes to an Esquimau and I expect the Republicans wish they was with the Esquimaux about now.

This morning's wireless reports Mix better, which is good news. He has given many a grown up and all kids a thrill. In 1905, at Madison Square Garden, Tom and I made our New York horseback debut with Zack Mulhall's Wild West.

Sure glad Charley Dawes has stopped this war and I can change into a kimono shopping tour of Japan and China.

Yours,
WILL ROGERS
