Freshman Rep. Charles E. Mc-
Kcnzie of Louisiana expected to get
a first-hand report on the war in the
Far East when he shook hands with
his most distinguished constituent,
Gen. Claire Chennault, leader of
American forces in China, who is
visiting in the United States.
But the “Fighting Tiger” almost
floored
McKenzie by
inquiring:
“How's farming down home? I can’t
wait to get back to my plantation.”
McKenzie replied that he had just
returned from Louisiana, that farm
ers in his district were doing "very
well” considering the shortage of
labor and machinery.
“Did you see my place in Concor
dia Parish?” asked Chennault anx-
iously.
“You bet. General,” replied Me-
Kenzie, “and I can report that it is
one of the most beautiful and best
regulated plantations in Louisiana.
I’d like to live there myself, on the
banks of Lake St. John.”
Note: While Chennault is at war,
his Louisiana farm is being man
aged by his wife and children.
