Whether you call it a "riot" or a "rebellion" or an . . .

. . . "insurrection," many Americans are curious about the ruckus instigated by Que. One need look no further than CASTLE ON THE HUDSON from the always eponymous Warner Bros, to ferret out an urgent warning and unravel the Riddle of Que. CASTLE's "Tommy" is an innocent man executed for the crime of another. Walking to the Death Chamber, Tom is as nonchalant as a condemned man passing out poems on the way to the gallows, guillotine, gas chamber or whatever can be. Of course the prophetic prognosticators of Warner had Tom's virtual namesake Tim in mind when they created this cautionary character. When Rome executed the Nazarene, it soon brought down their Empire. That's what happens when a Society murders an innocent man. When America failed to heed the warning of Tom and slew Tim, the latter came back as Que as surely as Satan made big red apples. No one can stuff the genii back in the lamp, cram toothpaste back in the tube or permanently evict Tim Q. Public from the U. S. Capitol.
