[123]Stroud replied that no person could really wake that type of

[127]what alternatives he had in mind, other than remaining in the
[128]w as & career military officer...
[130]S&S. TOMRU replied that, of course, he was once an
[132]agriculturalist, but that there were fee job opyortunities in
[133]which he could apply his past experience. His. sister had also
[135]eaked him if he felt he and uis family would want to live with
[137]ber in Spain or Hexicc, but he didn't think too much of thia--
[139]idea. He thon atated that he had been asked. by Manuel ARTINE.

[145]individual. or as a leader, because a man's ideals, outlook,
[146]and objectives change vith tine, For example, the people of .

[148]Fadel tock over, hie eneconplichasnts: gracuaily became quire:
[149]Giiferent from the ideals he had espoused. TOMEU continued
[150]@aying he would “no longer follow a man, One could only
[151]trust his ideals or an organization which followed those.
[152]ideals, since a good organization would-be less likely of:
[154]being controlled by a single naa." When saked for an example .
[156]Of the type of organization he hud in mind, TOMEU replied he
[157]Wee most favorably inclined towaras the ideals and goais of
